Pregnant Mexican national Isabel Lopez waits at BP checkpoint near Nogales, AZ

For the first time ever, Border Patrol officers are returning pregnant migrants to Mexico -- most of them crossing the border in their 8th and 9th months of pregnancy -- and the media and Democrats are absolutely livid over it.
Under the headline, “Pregnant women, other vulnerable asylum seekers are returned to Mexico to await hearings,” the Los Angeles Times described how President Donald Trump’s “Remain in Mexico” policy is reducing the ability of adventurous migrants to give birth in the United States:
When Enma Hernandez crossed the Rio Grande here illegally about two weeks ago and approached Border Patrol agents seeking asylum, she told them she was eight months pregnant.
Hernandez, 26, said she had fled Guatemala hoping to join her husband and 2-year-old daughter in Miami. Instead, U.S. immigration officials returned her to Ciudad Juarez under the Trump administration’s “Remain in Mexico” policy.
…
Hernandez says American officials have always previously let pregnant women remain in the U.S. until their asylum cases were decided. “We should be an exception because we are vulnerable,” she said. “It’s dangerous for us here.”
Four other pregnant migrants crossed the bridge on Thursday with her, along with a new mother carrying her 6-day-old daughter. All were immediately put into the Remain in Mexico program.
Anchor babies DENIED!
Under President Barack Obama, all pregnant migrants were invited to remain in the United States pending a courtroom hearing for their asylum claims. Many never showed up for their hearings.

This is as it should be.
You don’t come here ready to drop.
GOOD. California has enough anchor babies and we don’t need any more.
I’m McLovin’ it!
exec order ending birthright citizenship needs to happen NOW.
Mamacita wants Los Gringos to pay for hijos!
Pobrecita...not anymore we ain’t
What are they gonna do about all the other pregnant foreigners who fly in from Asia, Africa, or Europe to give birth, just so their kid can have American citizenship?
(we get the same scam in Canada too)
We are at war with south america. These preggos are WMDs... ready to drop!
toughsky shitsky.
her comments are very alarming though. they think it is their right to drop a baby here. she claims she legally crossed the border to claim asylum. how could what she is doing be remotely legal?
disgusting. happens every day and many times a day.
If Trump did nothing else in his eight years, this would improve our nation.
Another grand slam...
Several years ago, my BIL called me a “racist” after he asked me if I believed that Mexicans were coming across our border to have their “anchor babies” and I said yes.
I had to turn around and walk away from him because I was so angry.
After I cooled down, I called him into my study. I told him that if it weren’t for the fact that he was my wife’s brother and a guest in my house, my response would be different than just letting him know that I would never tolerate that kind of insult from anybody, under any circumstance.
He has never set foot in my home, again.
Let this be known, and Trump is re-elected!
Well, they went after the Chinese Birthing Centers, why not go after the Illegals crossing the Border as well?
Thanks for that story, FRiend.
Anybody can call me a “racist.” In today’s twisted culture, all that means is you have a grasp of reality.
Latinos pose a real problem, however. I grew up with a lot of Cuban friends in South Florida. Most of them were as white as I am — obviously pure Spanish descent — or so lightly mixed as to not matter.
Anyway, I figure if you act white, you are white.
Low-class Latinos are a different story — criminals and parasites who come here to live off the fat of the land, paid for my you and me.
That’s reality, according to the facts that I have observed. If I’m racist as a consequence, so be it, I don’t care.
Under PDJT, every day is like Christmas.
The ultra corrupt Mexican government has been dumping their garbage on the USA for as long as I can remember. Instead of working to uplift their own citizens, the Mexican Ruling Class prefers to enrich themselves at our expense and for some damned reason, we permit it. It’s really that simple.
I grew up on El Paso. Every morning the very pregnant Mexicans would waddle across the border with their ‘shopping passes” and camp out on the lawn at Thomason General Hospital. They waited there until they went into labor, and then walked into the emergency room. We need to completely do away with the anchor baby loophole -— NOW!!!
Trump is still doing the right thing for this country and is winning!
