Illegal-immigrant caravans back on the way — and Joe Biden ‘invited’ them
New York Post ^ | December 16, 2020 | John Davidson

Well, that didn’t take long. A border crisis is brewing before President-elect Joe Biden takes office.

Migrant caravans are forming in Honduras, where residents were hit with a pair of devastating hurricanes last month, adding to the economic hardship caused by COVID-19. Faced with ruin, many Hondurans have ­decided to defy local travel bans and head north.

“People are no longer scared of the coronavirus,” one caravan ­organizer told Bloomberg. “They’re going hungry, they’ve lost everything, and some towns are still flooded.” The organizer added that migrants are savvy about shifts in US border policy: “When there is a change in government in the US or Mexico, caravans start to move, because they are testing the waters to see how authorities respond.”

By now, Central Americans should have a pretty good idea how the authorities will respond in a Biden administration — and not just because smugglers, called “coyotes,” keep migrants well-informed in hopes of profiting off their desperation.

During the presidential campaign, Biden promised to reverse President Trump’s strict immigration and border policies, which together with emergency travel restrictions because of the pandemic helped drive illegal-immigration levels to historic lows after a surge last spring; numbers are once again increasing as conditions deteriorate in Central America.

Specifically, Biden has said he will stop construction on the border wall, reinstate DACA, ­boost the number of refugees and make it easier for migrants to claim asylum. On asylum seekers, Biden has promised to end Team Trump’s “Remain in Mexico” program, which ­requires Central Americans seeking asylum in the United States to wait in Mexico while their cases are adjudicated. The goal of the program is to prevent asylum seekers from absconding before their court date.

To understand why the Trump administration created the program, a bit of background is in order.

First HarrisBiden/XI regime has to figure out is how to stop existing contracts without having to pay more billions than the contracts are worth.

After getting out of the contracts, the easy way out is just to do as they promised and get rid of the BP and ICE. Then let the Wall rot and degrade as the Cartels make holes, stripping the infrastructure and selling it or turning it to their own use.

Hoards can just stream over the border and become new workers for the labor camps.

This isn’t immigration. This is an invasion by a bunch of arrogant beggars who hate us but want to come and suck up welfare benefits.

Honduran people are so lazy and shiftless that they won't help their own country recover from a hurricane. They are kinfolk of "Gibs me dat".

It’s beginning to look like thr Trump Presidency was nothing more than a brief slowdown of our descent.

The Deplorables want a Comprehensive Immigration Enforcement bill, missing since 1986 ONE TIME amnesty. Since that amnesty was granted already, a second amnesty is off the table. What remains is the enforcement the Democrats have disallowed since then.

The List of Comprehensive Immigration Enforcement, missing since 1986 goes like this -
1) southern barrier;
2) require eVerify to hire;
3) end all chain migration;
4) birthright per Minor v. Happersett (plural parents);
5) end work visas;
6) 10-year moratorium on all new applications for citizenship (40 years to allow workplace automation effects on downsizing population);
7) Set up an illegal aliens’ victim restitution fund.

Enactment of these provisions will motivate illegal aliens to SELF-deport, and remove colonizadors from our welfare rolls.

Story below about how the Pentagon is planning on getting out of the wall contracts and the associated costs. USACE is already in talks.

Well, now we can see if one of the ‘special features’ of the wall works. Think M-18 Claymore.

More democrat voters on the way. All that’s needed are a few judges to force “Motor Voter” in Texas, along with driver’s licenses for illegals and that’s it. Worked in Oregon and California. I know immigrants who get unrequested ballots every election in Oregon. I’m sure it is just a mistake....

Was kind of my thought as well. Even if Trump gets another 4 which would be glorious, after that, it’s over.
