We don’t have a border.
The media constantly tell the public that the illegal immigration problem is a complex issue that’s extremely hard to solve, but that is not true. The border was significantly more controlled under President Trump, before Joe Biden reversed his successful policies.
There are three main things that would greatly reduce the problem:
1) Enforce existing laws.
2) Make people who seek asylum remain in Mexico. If we did that, Mexico would suddenly enforce their southern border, instead of allowing illegals from all over the world to stroll into the U.S. The nation couldn’t afford to keep the masses within its borders, and the government knows it.
3) Build the wall. It is the cheapest solution, both short- and long-term.
Biden clearly understands that walls work—he had taxpayers fund a wall around his beach property to the tune of half a million dollars. He didn’t welcome trespassers, and he didn't care about the “root causes” as to why they were trespassing. Of course, the Bidens never want to earn things or pay for things themselves. They have always sucked off the public trough.
There are a few other significant things that could also significantly reduce the existential threat to America in the form of the border crisis:
4) Get rid of lawless sanctuary cities and states, which pretend they will welcome all illegals and tell the invaders that immigration laws don’t apply, before handing them IDs and dispatching these taxpayer burdens to red states.
5) Stop (s)electing presidents who support lawless sanctuary cities and states, and who appoint attorneys general who cherry-pick which laws to enforce and against whom to enforce them.

Sound advice; and totally contrary to the Democrat illegal agenda.
EVERY time we debate “them” we make the presumptive mistake that we’re dealing with honest differences in belief and ideology
The other side has no “ideology’ other than raw, absolute and in your face power.
You want to distract yourself from facing that reality, and talk about the peripherals, the ancillaries, the whatever topics they will happily engage you, for as many elections cycles as you want to pretend otherwise, for as long as you want, while another million or 2 cross the border....go right ahead. Have at it. they’ll be delighted to entertain you as it precludes your stopping them with the force and power required to subdue their intent.
these kinds of problems are rarely solved by “talking”;
6. Tax foreign remittances at the highest Federal Income Tax rate.
7. Strict eVerify enforcement. Harsh penalties on companies who knowingly hire illegals.
8. End the Diversity VISA program.
9. End Birth Right citizenship.
10. End all social benefit programs for illegals.
It’s not that the Demsheviks don’t “care”, they care deeply. They care deeply about having a gazillion more leftist voters.
People really need to understand this a woke DC apparatchik planned and paid-for political operation. Evidence? It began DAY ONE of FJB administration
These people, many who are remnants from Obama’s years, are neo-marxists. They hate you with a red-hot rage - for voting for Trump, for being conservative, Christian and white
It is the best revenge they can imagine
He was no Republican he was pro open border Rino period.
The only things the democrats do care about is altering Americas history and control to alter it to their way.
It’s why they attack the constitution at every chance.
81.000.000 votes huh Moe.
Exactly.
Of course the Democrats care - so do the Republicans, and for the same reason.
The “two parties” only have strong disagreements about things that are not the responsibility of Congress or the President.
On open borders, their mutual agreement is nearly perfect.
“He was no Republican”
Excuse me?
He received the nomination of the GOP in a transparent process at an open convention. There’s nothing more Republican than that.
You guys who constantly say that “Romney, McConnell, Paul Ryan, Kevin McCarthy, etc, etc” aren’t “real Republicans” better open your eyes.
They’re as real as real can be. Everything the GOP is, everything it stands for - they are.
“ he had taxpayers fund a wall around his beach property to the tune of half a million dollars.”
He also had the taxpayers fund a wall around a foreign country. It’s only THIS country that both parties agree shouldn’t have a wall.
A wall.
A moat.
Piranhas and salties.
I always thought,why not put a few Abrahm tanks on the border,with twin .50 ma dueces...
Well you are correct that killing attempted border crossers is the only practical solution, both in the US and in Europe.
In the case of Italy and the UK, they should be sinking the boats carrying “refugees”, and seizing and then sinking the mother ships.
The US should not (in my opinion) utilize killing force until the border is closed and militarized such that thousands of people are not crossing every day. Killing the 10-20 who get through a properly fortified border? Fine by me.
Killing 12000 people a day who have no idea what they are facing? My preference is to make it a lot harder to enter the kill zone first.
And, by the way, this will involve land seizures from Americans whose families have been on that border since the Alamo to create a death strip of sufficient depth.
Bingo! It is much worse than "don't care", effective measures are in reality the opposite of their intent and agenda. That is why they reversed every successful measure employ by Trump.
You nailed it with...
"You want to distract yourself from facing that reality, and talk about the peripherals...they’ll be delighted to entertain you as it precludes your stopping them with the force and power required to subdue their intent."
Charley Kirk (?) pointed out this morning that Trump will be a convicted felon by Memorial Day - the R's and Trump better have an effective game plan or we are headed over the cliff.
“ who appoint attorneys general who cherry-pick which laws to enforce and against whom to enforce them”
Who appointed Rod Rosenstein and William Barr?
“Don’t care” it’s a ridiculous headline.
They love what they are doing.
