Our open door along the southern border for people claiming to seek asylum is such a magnet for the world’s poor that a group of 116 people traveled all the way from Africa to Mexico to enter the United States. In video tweeted out by Customs and Border Patrol, the large group, identified as coming from Angola, Cameroun, and Congo (all desperately poor) can be seen wading across the water in the Rio Grande, some carrying children in their arms – an automatic entry into the United States under law that the House of Representatives refuses to change.

There are billions of people in the world who want to get themselves into the United States and sign up for welfare benefits that are vastly richer than their average incomes at home, not to mention free medical care at emergency rooms, free schooling for their children, and all the rest of our generosity. And now that word has reached them of the open door, they are coming.

Did they wade all the way form Africa?

If not, then somebody needs to find whoever paid their way into Mexico and give that person(s) the double O treatment.

Following this, the White House tweeted out a second video and made the point:

Our southern border is now a magnet for illegal immigration from all over the world. It's time for Democrats to help close the loopholes!

 

Last night, U.S. Border Patrol agents apprehended more than 100 illegal aliens from Congo, Angola, and Cameroon near the U.S.–Mexico border.

obviously a global effort to flood america’s borders just like we have seen in Europe

The world wants all of the west to be drowned in 3rd worlders.

How can the “desperately poor” afford transportation from Africa to Mexico?

Wade v row!?

[From The Deer Stand]

This is all on the Democrats. Thanks Pelosi and Schumer.

[rktman]

Lucky them. They just won the lotto like all these trespassers seem to be doing. At our tax dollar$ expense. But, there’s no issue on the border. Right napa nan?

“...It’s time for Democrats to help close the loopholes!...”

Excellent campaign message to all American people...

In order to keep our country, we are going to have to vote these democrat liberal idiots out of office...They care nothing about the everyday American...Only about keeping themselves in power...

Did they wade all the way from Africa?

Did they take some old slave ships out of mothballs and repurpose them to get to freedom?

[JBW1949]

I’ll take “Who is Soros” for 1 million, Alex....

[ronniesgal]

The border patrol folks need to set up row upon row of those blue dye packs that the banks put in the bags and have them triggered by some kind of pressure-release mechanism. Like a land mine, but instead of killing people it’ll Smurf them and make them a whole lot easier to apprehend and return, even days after they’ve crossed.

Photograph, fingerprint, DNA test if they have a minor with them, and immediately ship to Mexico City or further south. If the fingerprint check results in a known arrestable offence, chuck them in the slammer and prosecute, then deport after they’ve served their sentence.

Oh, and bill their home country for all expenses.

[FlingWingFlyer]

In before “reparations” payout.

[Two Kids' Dad]

Every single invader sneaking across our southern border is the responsibility, in whole or in part, of the Mexican government. They must be forced to pay the price for allowing and facilitating the invasion.

Ah...Ebola. It seems our last hope will come in the form of a deadly disease that can and will infect half the population of our Texas citizens. There will come such an outrage that the left will wish they had done something. ANYTHING.

[ckilmer]

they need to broadcast this news widely to the spanish speaking media.

[deport]

Did they wade all the way form Africa?

LOL........

Yep lots of water between the Congo and the
Rio Grande along the Texas border.

I’m more curious as to what airline they
flew and who paid the fares.
