Mexican Ambassador: Let’s Restart Mass Migration into U.S.
Breitbart ^ | November 19 2020 | NEIL MUNRO

Posted on 11/19/2020 7:09:03 AM PST by knighthawk

The United States should reopen itself to migration, amnesties, refugee inflows, asylum seekers, and more temporary contract workers, Mexico’s ambassador to the United States said Tuesday.

The U.S. immigration system “has to be based on facts and realities,” Ambassador Martha Bárcena Coqui told a forum arranged by the National Immigration Forum (NIF). She continued: ‘The facts and realities is the need to protect the most vulnerable, the need to keep open the generosity towards refugees, the need to recognize the complementarity of labor markets and demographic profiles, the need for temporary workers in the United States.”

The United States should not view migration as a security threat, she said, adding, “If you conceptualize migration as a national security issue, if you [push for] securitization of migration, and what is even worse, if you criminalize migration, then your approach always be policing, contentious [and] reduction of migration. So what we need is really to conceptualize migration … as an economic and social and political phenomena.”

He thinks Biden won. Is he in for a surprise along with the delusional lying Left.

“They are a pain in the posterior. Our failed state cannot handle the mass of unemployed as we have on idea how real economics work. The United States should make up for our incompetence and societal failures.”

Gee, how many countries do the migrants pass through in order to reach the US. It seems to me that every nation through which these folks pass “has a duty to help.”

Fact and realities are that there needs to be a twenty year moratorium on all immigration. From everywhere.

Fact and realties are that foreign language TV and radio stations are far too common — almost dominant in some states. People are not assimilating. Have not assimilated.

No mas, amiga. Not until foreign language TV and radio are rarity in this country, no mas.

Gotta love the left:

“The facts and realities is the need to protect the most vulnerable...”

But “the need to protect American workers” is not a “fact and reality”. It’s just an opinion.

Leftist arguments = facts and realities
conservative arguments: opinion and usually prejudice

Yes, of course. Restart mass migration because there is so much work available for migrants now. States are begging for help.

The U.S. immigration system “has to be based on facts and realities,”

Yes it should, which would mean a severe reduction in immigration for many years and the deportation and/or prosecution of everyone here illegally.

Got a better idea.
Lets upgrade the Wall to a DMZ with minefields, gun towers and helicopter gunship patrols.

Hurricane Iota is currently creating the precedent for thousands of refugees to flee Central America.

Sometime after Día de los Reyes Magos (if not sooner) there will be caravans headed North.

Sounds like Mexico’s social safety net is dumping off its marginal population into the USA.

Traitorous Democrats will sell us out even when they aren’t getting paid to do so.
