Democratic Rep. Henry Cuellar says that 30 countries are refusing to take deported criminal illegal aliens back and he wants the US government to force their cooperation.
A law is already on the books, Cuellar noted in an interview with Sheryl Attkisson, that the US could stop issuing visas to citzens of those countries until they changed their policy.
“We’re not enforcing it, which is amazing. So now my intent is to go back to our committee on appropriations and affect their funding until they do that,” Cuellar told Sharyl Attkisson, host of Full Measure, in an interview.
Cuellar, a Democratic member of the House Committee on Appropriations, told Attkisson that the Supreme Court has ruled that illegal immigrants arrested for criminal activity can only be held for a certain period of time before they must be released.
“That means you’re releasing criminals into our streets because those countries refuse to take back those criminal aliens,” said Cuellar. “That’s wrong. And especially I think it’s even worse that this is already on the books, and we’re still issuing business tourist visas and student visas to countries that refuse to take back their criminal aliens. That’s wrong, and we’re hoping to change that.”
Cuellar has not been afraid to break with some of his party leadership on immigration issues in the past. He was known as one of former President Barack Obama’s fiercest critics on illegal immigration. Cuellar teamed up with Texas Republican Sen. John Cornyn in 2014 to help pass a bill that would speed up the deportation of unaccompanied minors. His stance disappointed his fellow Democrats, including Sen. Harry Reid.

“push them out of a plane with a parachute!”
Ok. The first time. The second time, without.
I suspect something is being setup from within the DHS. Recently, a week or 2 ago, about 160 undocumented immigrants were turned back at the Tijuana border after coming into the DHS facilities there.
Only about 40 of them were Mexican origin. Mexico took them back, but refused the others. Locals believe the US wasn’t being fair in sending these back to Mexico, but should have turned them back to the countries of origin.
These situations appear reasonable, but also appear to have been contrived setups, attempting to stir up badwill amongst our neighbors.
Solution is to make the situation for the illegals in the US worse than their alternative to find a way back to their nation of origin, when they aren’t seeking legitimate immigration and US citizenship.
Cut off visa’s and aid.
30 safe zones. Bomb away. Drop off the aliens.
Yep. Push them out of a Turboprop plane over their homeland.
Parachute optional.

Guess if it was on purpose.
Wow! A Democrat said that? It's just what I was thinking before I opened the thread.

SCOTUS made it difficult to hold them so they had to be released.
