Border chaos: Mom is separated from son, deported, but returns illegally for a reunion a year later

BLOOMINGTON, Ill. —The first time Jeny Amador fled Honduras for the United States, she tried to enter the country legally: She presented herself at an El Paso border checkpoint in early 2018 and asked for asylum. Amador instead was separated from her 10-year-old son. Authorities accused her of being a smuggler. She was detained for months until she agreed to be deported — without her boy, who went to live with relatives here in the Midwest. (snip)

...When Amador tried to enter the country again in February, she found a shocking about-face. She was turned away from the same checkpoint at the Mexico-Texas line. When she and a teenage daughter then crossed the border illegally, they were taken into custody, spent five days in a U.S. immigration jail, and were suddenly released into the United States, setting up a reunion with her son, Isaac.

kicked out as a smuggler, reapplied (!) this time with a daughter in tow, and when rejected, hopped the fence. And she thinks that America 'corrected their mistake'. Our mistake.

I"m sorry but we don't need people who think their self-interest is more important than our national laws. I don't care how many human shield minors they drag with them.

Bloomington has become a $#!thole city with a socialist mayor and board.

They are effectively a sanctuary city.

As easy as flushing a toilet into the country. My state of NJ lets them all in just by that magic word.

Why was the child allowed in and shipped around the country? He should have been kicked out with her.

They could have had a reunion in Honduras a year ago.

Guys, there is NOTHING that is going to keep a mom from her babies. I get that, and you are going to have your hands full trying to thwart it, sorry.

The house passed the overturn of the emergency declaration. Does anyone know what McConnell is going to do?

so we let a mother abandon her child to the American social system and $$$ her relatives collect on behalf of the child for a year, while she goes and gets another child? How many times do we allow this, seeing the average child count per family in Honduras is 6 ?

What is stopping her kids from moving to her home country? In this case; the Honduras.

We didn’t LET her, I’m just telling you that mom instinct will propel people to do obsessively insane things.

Throw the arrogant illegal invader in prison for few years...then kick her out. Investigate the whole family. If any are illegal kick them out. Jail anyone who aided and abetted. Deport them. Shoot them if tbey return. Get out, criminals.

Speaking of arrogant, I hear we have an arrogant and demanding bunch of Cubans coming up in a caravan. They have already thoroughly annoyed Panama, and the Panamanians are apparently not holding their tongues.
