The Trump administration released a list of hard-line immigration principles late Sunday that could threaten to derail a deal in Congress to allow of hundreds of thousands of younger undocumented immigrants to remain legally in the country.
The administration's wish list includes the funding of a wall along the U.S.-Mexico border, a crackdown on the influx of Central American minors and curbs on federal grants to sanctuary cities, according to a document distributed to Congress and obtained by The Washington Post.
The demands were quickly denounced by Democratic leaders in Congress who had hoped to forge a deal with President Trump to protect younger immigrants, known as dreamers, who were brought to the United States illegally as children. Trump announced plans last month to phase out the Deferred Action for Childhood Arrivals (DACA) program, an Obama-era program that had provided two-year work permits to the dreamers that he called unconstitutional.

younger immigrants, known as dreamers, who were brought to the United States illegally as children. Why weren't they deported when their parents were?
To: ncalburt
Agree. This is the usual “words about enforcement” in exchange for a massive amnesty of illegal aliens, leading to an even more massive increase in third-world legal chain migration into our homeland.

In all likelihood, third-world migration into our homeland will be higher under Trump than under Obama.
If the DACA treason happens, it will be significantly higher.

If it's any consolation,the Romans couldn't keep the "cheap labor express" in check either and it eventually destroyed them.
The next step for the deplorables is to go full on barbarian but will we take it or surrender to the oligarchs.

Sounds good. Republicans in Congress should support Trump in this. He's adding some more pressure for the Congress to either accede to following the Law or changing the Law - they know that whichever way they go, it will piss off a lot of People and they will not have the option of sitting "in unity" with Dems and Reps thumbing their noses together....

Any so called “Dreamer” who is here illegally should self deport in a show of good faith, and then re-apply for citizen ship legally.
To: Innovative
Sorry I ever doubted him.

Like we keep saying "What do you not understand about the word "Illegal"."
The Far Left Liberal Fake News Crowd and the Far Left Liberal folks do not seem to understand is that we can not take in all of these "Illegals" into our country period.
These illegals need to all go back to their original country.
Our Congress is worthless and that is why we got that bad deal in 1986 with then President Reagan. We also need to put a stop to Legal Immigration so that we can determine what kind of problems we have right now!
We already have way to many Illegals in our great country. They need to go back to their third world crap hole country.
To: Innovative
What is sad is that the democrats aren’t the problem (they control nothing), the Republican senate is the problem.
