AWESOME NEWS keep it up!! Illegals should NOT be getting ANY freebies from the Govt, PERIOD..deport their asses
Without warning??!! They been sleepin’ since November?!
Can anyone please explain to me how this whole misnamed “refugee” thing started? Why was the west forced to take in everybody? It makes no sense.
The Democrats are losing their base to deportation. Jail. Suicide. Leaving the country. They might not do as well as the Greens in 24
28. Sorry
Big win!
-Cue, “Ice, Ice, Baby”-
Just still more of the left constantly re-righting all the dictionaries and moving the goal posts.
During WWII, the Jews who managed to escape Hitler, were often returned back to Germany, to sure death!
So were Hitler opponents from Germany and occupied countries.
After WWII, many Soviet Block citizens were also returned back, mostly to certain death, or gulags if there were lucky!
So free countries decided, that if somebody from those countries manage to escape, they should be given asylum and not return to death or gulag!
As a matter of fact, this international law is very restrictive, with lots of conditions attached.
The law, as it was adopted after WWII still stands, but it was over the years, this, basically good, humane law, was badly diluted by lawyers and politicians, so now, you just need to say “asylum” and you would be given asylum, with all kind of benefits, even if you just claim that there is violence in your country or whatever.
Slow, slippery slope!
Since the letter of the law did not changed, what Trump is doing is actually 100% in agreement with that international law says! He is just applying it, as it was written and implemented 70+ years ago, trying to undo the slippage.
E.G. the International law requires to give asylum to people if they are politically persecuted, but not if they are starving, have economic hardship or there is crime in home country! The only people eligible are people persecuted by the government, not by local gangs, etc.
The asylum means that you are not supposed to be returned, but speaks nothing about any support. The original applicants were basically homeless and worked in restaurants and similar establishments, just trying to survive, despite being professors, generals, gov. ministers, etc.
Another interesting provision, which was totally ignored by Biden folks, was that you HAVE to apply in the FIRST country where it is safe for you to stay!
That means mostly “remind in Mexico”!
Since Mexico is safe country, no Mexicans can apply and all other people crossing Mexican borders, should apply in Mexico, or sooner!
Nobody coming from Mexico is eligible!!!
Practically, the only people even eligible to apply in the USA are few boat people!
“Evicting” them—and then letting them go free?!?
Trump should bring in the Soylent Green trucks to devour those illegal alien hordes.
Send them packing or turn them into plankton.
Where?
“Why was the west forced to take in everybody? It makes no sense”
The law on refugees stems from Jews fleeing Nazi Germany. It was later expanded to be worldwide in 1967.
There was supposed to be a limitation that you had to claim asylum in the first safe country you could get to. The limitation is no longer enforced. Also, NGOs arrange to fly people in from Haiti and other far away countries.
Then there is welfare. The refugee convention simply requires equal treatment. Equal treatment would mean getting placed on a Section 8 (or UK equivalent) wait list, not put up in an expensive hotel.
Trump could simply hand the head of the UN a letter and the US would be out from under the refugee convention in a year.

Let Ukrainian army press gangs round the invaders up.
Zelensky is keen to get to Moscow.
WINNING!
MORE ICE PLEASE!!!!
They had plenty of warning, they just didn’t believe it based on previous experience.
This guy constantly produces extreme headlines and claims stories which can’t be verified elsewhere. I’ve grown very skeptical of his claims no matter how much I’d like to believe them.
