(hat tip seastay)

<><> PDJT, with cooperation from Mexico’s Nieto, has sprung a legal trap based on longstanding intl law.

<><> intl refugee law is the UN’s 1951 Refugee Convention, ratified by 145 UN member states including Mexico and US, administered by Geneva-based UNHCR.

<><> Article 27(1) established the concept of ‘country of first asylum’.

<><>It is the first country reached by a person seeking asylum status that meets two criteria: (a) that country has offered the person refugee status, and,
(b) that country also offers sufficient protection from the conditions causing the refugee to seek asylum.

<><> ergo, Mexico’s offer to provide caravan members with asylum, housing, schooling, and work means it IS the country of first asylum.

<><> also means automatic entitled to UN assistance from UNHCR (financial medical, tents or other housing, food-—none of which is directly on the US nickel).

<><> Refugees may also seek asylum in third countries, and the first country MAY allow this under Article 26(2)(a)
‘reassignment’ (especially if first country refugees prove burdensome), but ONLY IF the further move is safe from ‘refoulment’.

<><> ‘Refoulment’ is defined as a risk of a refugee being returned by third country to country of origin from which fled seeking asylum.

Not to mention..... Trump's move makes Mexico entitled to UN Money to house the refugees - UN is a Cash Cow to Mexico....

Dollars to donuts the UN financing is how the US sold it to the greedy Mexicans.

And who funds the UN? The US, that is to say you do. Might as well just move a “family” into your attic, its cheaper in the long run.

I heard last night that several Central Am countries are failing and are now experiencing serious infectious diseases such as measles, HIV, malaria, (I think they said Diphtheria) and Dengue. These disease are now presenting in countries 500 miles away from original country. This info was released yesterday in a report. Perhaps by the CDC. No sure, but it was released yesterday.

All the more reason to drastically reduce the money we hand over to the UN.
