Correct and that is a problem, but why do you bring that up, it wasn't part of my post. I am talking about illegals not on the wait list for asylum. Just diverting again rather responding to my points.

Every illegal caught these days just claims asylum, when the reality is that very few will actually get it. So now, thousands and thousands are free to roam the country, maybe coming back for their hearing. Most will not because they know they will not get it. So then they are illegals again in sanctuary cities, etc. Either working illegally or sucking off the government teat, or both. This problem has been going on for a long time.

So how many are too many? The left doesn't seem to care.

So, what do you find that is false in my statement:

And why is this a good thing? Maybe -

Keeping families together? (the whole family could be deported)
The city/state is dependent on the illegal labor?
Either the employer is breaking the law or the illegal has fraudulent documents.

And why is this a good thing?

Sanctuary cities/states encourage illegal crossings because they offer a refuge with little chance of being deported.

So, when will there be too many illegals?

Is there a max number of illegals where liberals would feel a need to do more to control illegal crossings and visa overstays?

Trump sending those waiting for an amnesty hearing to sanctuary cities is a waste of federal dollars. That's where many/most will be heading anyway for the security of the cities. ICE should be handing out maps and directions to the closest sanctuary cities.


More utter horseshit from Techno, who invents positions that he then assigns to those he makes no effort to understand.

By the numbers. Current law, which stems back to a 1967 treaty, allows people to flee violence in their country and seek asylum in other countries, including the US. Until Trump, that law enjoyed bi-partisan support. Trump and his minions do not have the political skill—or interest—to modify that law—or to comply with it. People who seek asylum are not “illegal”, rather, that term is a rhetorical device, akin to those used by Hitler, to describe asylum seekers as ‘others”, not worthy of protections from the rule of law. Shame on you.

Nancy Pelosi, who demonstrates the brainpower of those not deep into fast food-related dementia, has indicated her willingness to work on a bi-partisan solution to immigration.

Every logical element of your argument is false. I am so happy you weren’t in California failing at teaching our children

Well listen to you mac, not only are you showing your hypocrisy in regards to sanctuary cities, you have to combine it with going down the Hitler road as well. If sanctuary cities don't want them, why should any other city be happy with taking them? Is it really an expense thing with you? Or a "fascist" thing with you? Probably not, from your other post from the 2020 thread.

"My solution? Keep South Carolinians in South Carolina. Been there, done that, won’t go back. I’m willing to subsidize them staying there and living in a made-up reality."

How "Hitler" of you. You are the perfect example of a far left hypocrite.

The main reason there is zero attempt to craft a comprehensive immigration bill, which would have bi-partisan support is that he knows the subject is a great divider, which keeps the minions in line. If he fails Ann Coulter again, he loses the base, and next years election.

The perfect example of a fascist. The incessant repeating of "illegals" as a means to marginalize humans. How Hitler of you--even if you have no idea of what fascism entails.

Are undocumented immigrants eligible for federal public benefit programs?
Generally no. Undocumented immigrants, including DACA holders, are ineligible to receive most federal public benefits, including means-tested benefits such as Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program (SNAP, sometimes referred to as food stamps), regular Medicaid, Supplemental Security Income (SSI), and Temporary Assistance for Needy Families (TANF). Undocumented immigrants are ineligible for health care subsidies under the Affordable Care Act (ACA) and are prohibited from purchasing unsubsidized health coverage on ACA exchanges.

Undocumented immigrants may be eligible for a handful of benefits that are deemed necessary to protect life or guarantee safety in dire situations, such as emergency Medicaid, access to treatment in hospital emergency rooms, or access to healthcare and nutrition programs under the Special Supplemental Nutrition Program for Women, Infants, and Children (WIC).

Wrong. It divides people who value the rule of law from those that value mob rule.

Comprehensive reform would address everything, but given Drumpf can't even figure out a work- around for asylum, and is making the situation worse, you know NOTHING will get done.....

Bogg--it goes a little beyond that. Democrats would like to see more staffing resources in the review of asylum cases to help clear the backlog, and won't go anywhere without a path to citizenship for long time residents and DACA. That was ok with the vast majority of the Senate before Trump lit up the "hate them all" contingency with opposition to all immigrants. He lit that fuse and hopes to ride the resulting chaos to another term. He has no comprehension of what he can or can't do legally. But he has managed to cow all the moderate Republican Senators that actually know how to pass legislation. Trump has no intention of being part of an effort that passes legislation; he and his crime family are just intent on stealing as much as they can. The far right has been conned--again.

By the way, the "how many are too many" talking point is utter nonsense. This is a country of immigrants that has absorbed immigrants and made them Americans for centuries. There are 327 million in the U. S. The border "emergency" is about There are 733,000 asylum claims pending. That's right, less than 1/3 of one percent.

For those who are not just panicky white people afraid of immigrants, but want to keep Republican majorities, the ship has already sailed. Because of citizens of Hispanic descent a number of states will likely move from red to purple or blue. Minorities now outnumber whites in Texas https://www.texastribune.org/2018/06/21/hispanic-texans-pace-become-biggest-population-group-state-2022/ Arizona will be a majorioty minority state by 2010, and the US will be a majority minority country by about 2045.

Republicans successfully demonized Hispanic immigrants in California--and killed their brand. No statewide offices held, and nearly irrelevant--in the state that generates a huge portion of jobs created--3/4 of the US total in February. https://www.cnbc.com/2019/03/22/california-accounted-for-nearly-three-quarters-of-us-jobs-added-in-february.html

mac you just can't and won't give it up, you just keep cancelling out your own sense of seriousness with your broad brush racial claims.
From you~
