All those 1,000 aliens have to do is "say the magic word:"

Asylum -

And they are IN.

So why hasn't Trump done something about this? Too busy playing golf?


That is why he is urging Republicans in Congress to go “nuclear” to make changes to immigration laws.
Democrats are resisting changes.


Which law exactly needs to be changed? Seems like he should have been more focused on this than the wall.

OP cites Fox News, which is wrong, and the President goes on a tweetstorm in reaction to Fox news, which was wrong.

And it is clear from the tweets that the President doesn't understand how DACA works.

Fine by me. The Senate is likely to flip in a few months. Once Dems have control, the same rules will apply to them. That what you want to risk, when nothing is on Congress’s docket until after midterms? Have at it.

This is great. Pelosi and Schumer can greet them at the border with welcome flags, care packages, and social workers to help them apply for benefits.

It’s a bit more complex. Nice try.

Because Mexico will send you home to the conditions you needed asylum from.

So change it- sign an executive order, pass a law, something. Wringing your hands and whining does nothing.

Read the article. It explains that.


Trump is the president and republicans control congress! Why can’t they do something?? It’s been a year and NOTHING in immigration yet. I’m getting frustrated. Talk me down from the ledge.


Obama! Hillary! Emails!

Also, there is no "Catch and Release law".


It's a euphemism for the way the cases are handled. They cannot keep them because they cannot handle the numbers--so, they release them with a court date which they ignore.


Why can't they handle them? $40 billion dhs budget = 1 million per apprehended person.


14 billion just devoted to customs/border patrol = $368,000 per apprehended person.


Seems like it would be more cost effective to just let them stay. White supremacy sure is expensive!
