* a problem but not one anybody wanted to take up. Well, it is now at a stage when it must be taken up. If the Trump administration is serious about protecting our borders and sovereignty the time has come for tough action on Mexico. *

indeed. And, we should look into who’s funding programs like the below, that creates a ‘legal entry’ out of whole cloth:

” a greater benefit: Those who come back into the country on advanced parole have a legal entry into the country on record, so if someone like a spouse or younger sibling born in the U.S. petitions for them to get green cards, they don’t have to wait outside the U.S. to get approved.”

I don't know the exact numbers but let's deconstruct the demand for consular services.

Illegal residents: far more illegal Mexicans living in the US vs. illegal Canadian residents. The difference is probably between 10-20 million.

Legal residents: Hard to quantify. This category would include holders of work visas, green card holders, and permanent residents. I know that many US employers recruit heavily in Canada, especially silicon valley firms. I know thousands of visa holders live in Canada and commute to Michigan daily to work. There are probably many more Canadians working legally in the US than Mexicans working legally.

Tourists/Shoppers: Cross border shopping is probably a wash between the countries. I believe the number of Canadian tourists vastly outnumber Mexican vacationers.

So, you are right, the ratio might actually be low but only because the demand for Mexican consular service is from Mexican citizens who are in the US illegally.

Are you kidding? Mexico is the exact model they have for us. They plan to expand it not clean it up.

Those aren’t consulates. They’re ID card convenience stores for illegals.

Good article.

[Yardstick]

Yeah, he comes off as knowledgable and smart. The risk is that he’s a well diguised crank. Time would tell on that one.

Thanks for the heads up.

AS P-MARLOWE POSTED: If Mexican officials and their consulate offices are found to be encouraging their citizens to break the laws of our country, then (a) revoke their diplomatic status, (b) evict their diplomats, and, (c) close the consulates.

DEMAND CONGRESS ACT NOW---Domestic and international laws are being breached. Mexico's dangerous and harmful threats could impact US trade, states' economies and interstate and international commerce.

Let's understand the reasons why Mexico's panties are in a twist: its citizens are being thrown off the US gravy train.

ITEM--A report on intl gambling lists the select few who are the casino's biggest bettors.... Mexicans along w/ multi-billionaires like Arabs and Asian billionaires are regulars at the high rolling gaming tables.

Mexico is not a country that is in need of US tax dollars....the remittances their citizens here send back home finance a lavish lifestyle for the federales.

=============================================

The appalling govt corruption in Mexico needs to be exposed.

Mexico's deception is a long-running soap opera. Trump needs to expose them. Mexico manipulates public opinion---wants everybody to believe they're helpless---just a poverty-stricken place besieged by drug cartels. They fake the story that millions of its citizens are forced to jump the border to have a "better life" by riding the US gravy train.

REALITY CHECK---FOLLOW THE MONEY-----the resignation of Agustin Carstens, chief of Mexico’s central bank, has left MSM pundits and even business analysts scratching their heads. It appears no-one has any idea why Carstens is leaving…...... well, almost no-one.

ITEM--- Mexico has been swilling at the US trough....grabbing our tax dollars hand over fist.

ITEM---Mexico is one of the top ten countries receiving US foreign aid----almost a billion per year besides raking in hundreds of millions via the infamous "Merida Initiative."

ITEM---Mexicans here send home back billions of our tax dollars.....the federales are prolly getting a huge cut of that.

ITEM--Some 125 countries including Muslim scum gather at the Mexican border to stroll into the US. Mexico prolly gets a fee from each country to let that happen.

ITEM--The Merida Initiative alone has blanketed Mexico w/ millions of US tax dollars for years and years.

Shutdown ALL Mexican Consulates. Scrap NAFTA. Deny entry of ALL transportation originating from Mexico.

Beautiful......let’s go for it.

Obama had the top Central America federales in
the White House begging for more US tax dollars.

=======================================

Central American govts are conspiring against the US---threatening the United States.......UNLESS we send them more foreign aid money.

As you read his words, remember that Guatemalan President Otto Perez is under investigation for misuse of foreign aid. Perez was formally charged on Thursday, June 16, 2016, in a sprawling corruption scheme that emptied government coffers and laundered money to be spent on Miami shopping sprees, real estate and luxury vehicles.

Otto Perez

==============================================

Guatemalan President Otto Perez warns the USA: "you will be inundated w/ more contagious illegals if billions of US tax dollars are not handed over."

GUATEMALA CITY (Reuters) - The United States should provide billions of dollars to help Central American nations curb the flow of illegal migrants, Guatemalan President Otto Perez said, and his government warns the problem will get worse if Washington fails to help.

Fleeing violence, trying to reach relatives already in the United States or seeking jobs, record numbers of child migrants from Honduras, Guatemala and El Salvador have been stopped at the southern U.S. border this year, causing widespread alarm. Last month, the three countries pitched Washington an ambitious development plan to confront the issue.

They want to pump about $10 billion into the region to create jobs and lift living standards, with the bulk of funding coming from the United States, Perez told Reuters. He hopes the plan could come up with about $2 billion a year from 2015 to 2019, a sum he equated to roughly 10 percent of annual U.S. spending on border security and immigration enforcement.

"Now we understand it's not simply a question of the United States saying: 'Right, here's $2 billion a year for five years' for example - the governments of the three countries have to play their part too," the conservative Perez, who took power in early 2012, said in an interview late on Monday.

The US aid package would boost infrastructure and provide more jobs in all three countries, especially in areas that send large numbers of migrants to the United States, he added.

The three Central American governments are urging the United States to shoulder the lion's share of the costs, arguing that U.S. demand for illegal narcotics has fueled violence among drug gangs across much of the impoverished region.

"The United States has to support this, it has no other option," Guatemala's foreign minister, Carlos Morales, told Reuters. "If they don't support it, the crisis will kick off again, you can count on it."

Perez said he hoped the United States would put up about 60 percent of funding. "But we'll have to discuss it calmly and see what each individual country can do, and what can be achieved by common consent."

During meetings in New York in September, U.S. Secretary of State John Kerry told Central American officials he hoped Congress could approve about $300 million in funding, Morales said, noting the sum was "nothing" given the scale of the problem.

Central American leaders are due to meet Vice President Joe Biden on Nov. 12, 2014 in Washington to sound out U.S. support for their plan, Morales added.-- SNIP--

REMINDER--- $266 million of our tax dollars in the 2015 spending bill went to Central America earmarked for "humanitarian aid to the children." (cue laugh machine)
