Exactly right again.
I remember when Obama was the "deporter-in-chief" because he deported so many illegals to protect the minorities' jobs from being taken by immigrants, and to get better wages.
What changed between Obama's policies and Biden's immigration policies? They are exactly opposite.
The stock market is crashing, the economy slowing, so jobs are going to be scarcer. We don't need millions of new unskilled workers.
Do you know and understand the USA's immigration and asylum seeker laws? Do you know that we have to give them their day in immigration court under our laws?
All Trump did, that was absolutely unprecedented prior to him, was pay Mexico to take care of some of the USA refugee asylum seekers (in squalor) in a camp in Mexico, until they get their day of due process, in the USA's immigration court.... they still get their chance to seek asylum here.
From what I gathered from reading up on it, over 95% of these refugees are turned down by our immigration judges, and are deported immediately following their trial.
We will always have a huge flow of immigrants seeking asylum the way it is set up under the law....unless congress enacts immigration reforms that would change it.
I have been saying for years, the solution is funding and staffing of the immigration courts and judges.
Right now, there is something like over a 5 year wait, for their day in court.....5 FRICKING YEARS!!!!!
This causes all kinds of problems... By law we have to give every asylum seeker their day in court....so we are stuck with the seekers for 5 years awaiting their day of judgement....this gives them the opportunity to slip under the radar....or 5 years of luxury to them, only to be deported and one of the 95% sent home.
If our courts were stacked from here to high heaven, and their day in court was within 30days or so, and they got rejected and deported right then....
Then word would get around in the homelands they escaped from and sent back to immediately, that selling all they own and making the two month journey to the USA, only would put them back in to their own country, poorer than when they left, in just 30 days!!
Right now, they think they'll in the least, have a 5 year reprieve, living in the USA until court.....
I think this keeps them coming.....
So if we stack the immigration courts to the hilt to process and deny the 95% who do not qualify immediately, though it's costly, would still save us tons of money in the long run with eventually curbing the caravans of refugee seekers because they no longer have the 5 year free ride waiting for court.
