Biden migrants proposal proves US border crisis could end tomorrow
nypost ^ | 12/18/2023 | editorial board

What on Earth is the congressional GOP thinking?

Reports indicate the White House and Republicans in Congress are at work on a deal that would tighten border security in exchange for okaying aid to Ukraine — and that a major bone of contention is whether to set a trigger point for expedited migrant removals when illegal crossings hit 3,000 or 5,000 per day.

Huh?

If Washington can tell border agents to stop waving in illegals when the total hits some arbitrary threshold, then it can tell them to do it from the get-go.

In other words, by dickering over just how many illegal migrants can come through in a day before the door slams shut, the Biden administration has at long last said the quiet part out loud: The law doesn’t actually require treating the word “asylum” as a magic “Open sesame.”

Yes, the border can be closed.

It’s open because President Biden opted to appease the left wing of the Democratic Party, which wants open borders however it can get them.

Look: The law says every illegal entrant must be detained until “final determination” of their status; all the evidence indicates the vast majority don’t have legitimate asylum claims.

Feckless Senate Republicans may sign up for this, but NO WAY it clears the House.

Biden should be arrested. Meanwhile we dick around with his dopey kid’s laptop issues and discuss his prostitute budget. The Stupid Party is so… STUPID.

The Biden crew can make a deal then just disregard it after the Ukes get their $.

We already know no one can hold them accountable for anything.

The crisis won’t end until every last illegal is hunted down and physically kicked out!

Evidently the dems must have figured out they have enough illegal votes now so they can close the border.

Make sure to spay/neuter each one before release. No more anchor babies.

So ... holding the whole USA hostage in order to continue the profitable orgy of mass murder in Europe?

And even at that, it does not address the problem of the illegals already here.

This is not quite right. He wasn’t appeasing anyone. It was planned invasion to bring millions of illegal rat voters. In Haiti they even ran ads promising food, housing, healthcare and education. All they had to do was make it across the border.

What is going on at the American Borders is proof that the current U.S. Government is being run by a bunch of retarded, incompetent, boneheads. It’s a disgrace and the American people are the BIG LOSERS. Whose bright idea was it to make the Border Patrol “first responders” carry a set of huge bolt cutters to destroy the concertina wire purchased by the taxpayers of Texas to prevent these criminal illegal aliens from illegally entering Texas?

If any compromise depends on a Democrat administration stopping them at the border, we lose because they will never be stopped. However, if it depends on stopping them BEFORE they reach the border with Stay in Mexico enacted, ending catch and release and enacting national E Verify to tell them they will never get a legal job to support themselves here, we win. Trump proved if you take away their incentive to come as he did with Stay in Mexico and ending catch and release, they will not come.

Even if we had a Constitutional amendment stating that: Dems and RINOs would ignore it and pack enough federal judges to win all the resulting lawsuits.
