Our minds are made up. We want the border closed. Allowing 5,000 a day before shutting it down is NOT closed. It’s not that complicated. We don’t want 60 Billion for Ukraine’s border and 20 Billion for ours. This bill is garbage. |
The Squad would like a word. What a pu $$ y, all of these "men" cowering from threats. Man up. |
Clearly it's not a crisis if the GOP wants to wait another eleven months to "fix" it. |
The law currently allows President Biden to shut the border down. The Bill is unnecessary for shutting down the border. What it does is allow him to staff up processing of migrants into our country. NO!! NO NO NO. That is not what we want and we won’t give him the stick to beat us with. He made the mess and to fix it he needs to reverse himself. Trump had it under control and Biden made a huge deal of reversing everything Trump did. Well now he needs to eat humble pie and undo it. We won’t give him more money tonproces people. No more for dreamers or daca or migrants or parolees or whatever UNTIL HE SHUTS the door. Contrary to what you are saying, what we want him to do is entirely within his power right now. He just won’t do it unless we also give him money for processing migrants. That is HIS choice. |
There is no such thing as "shut the door". You seem to lack any actual technical understanding of what you are specifically asking for. Using vague and emotional language may whip up a frenzy among ignoramuses but it does nothing to solve any actual problems in the real world. |
The GOP want open borders! |
I’m a former attorney with the Office of the Chief Counsel at CBP. Please don’t try to mansplain to me on this. |
If the law allows Biden to shut the border down, it would also have allowed Trump to shut the border down - something he never did. The only thing that reduced the number of border crossings during his administration was the pandemic. |
Your statements are simply not accurate. Biden made things much worse. https://www.nytimes.com/interactive/2023/10/29/us/illegal-border-crossings-data.html https://www.pewresearch.org/short-reads/2021/11/09/whats-happening-at-the-u-s-mexico-border-in-7-charts/ https://www.statista.com/statistics/329256/alien-apprehensions-registered-by-the-us-border-patrol/ https://www.bbc.com/news/world-us-canada-61989673.amp https://www.cbp.gov/newsroom/stats/southwest-land-border-encounters |
dp.. but, what do you mean by "shut down the border". Even the border crossing checkpoints? Also, how would Biden "shut down the border" when there is no "door"? Even a border wall doesn't stop them, you know. I do agree that Biden let it out of control, and if he loses 2024 election, it was his to lose. He could've kept a better control on the situation. What's happening in NYC and Chicago is a bad look for Biden. |
