HORSESHIT!!!
The only reason those people are coming here is because they are being paid to come here by the left.
They aren't escaping religious persecution or political persecution....they are coming here to get paid.
Poverty isn't a qualification for asylum.
Under the Law, only the court judge can determine if they are here as legitimate refuges... when they cross the border, they are asylum seekers, and have the legal right to seek refugee status, no matter where or how they cross our border... the asylum seekers are not illegals until they have their day in court, turned down by the judge in the immigration court for refugee status, and cross the border a second time, after being denied by a court previously.... that is the law as it stands.
They have the right to apply for asylum......they don't have the right to stay.
They have to file an application.....many of which are rejected.
The problem is the fact that they are flooding our borders with so many that they cannot process them. They disappear after they're released and apply for benefits in Sanctuary cities.
pressing the EASY BUTTON would be staffing the immigration courts, from here to high heaven with immigration judges, to pass the asylum seekers through as quickly as possible and ankle bracelet monitors on the rest waiting their turn, imho.
They do not qualify for asylum. They are just getting around laws so no wonder the left loves it.
you could not get a more lawless administration than the Trump administration... your snide remark about Democrats, the left, falls flat!
-----------------
YOU my dear, do NOT get to choose whether they qualify, or not for asylum.... so go and cry like a baby or shout from the roof top, or stomp your feet.... the Law is the Law, and a Judge in an immigration court, is who gets to decide whether they qualify for asylum.
Why do you think we are over flowing with asylum seekers, and having to release them due to such over flowing? Do you think the Trump admin wants to not just turn them away at the border? We have to give them their day in court, even if all of them were eventually denied refuge status, by a judge.
Time to staff those courts to the hilt, and move them through the system!
Changing the law, is a whole nuther story, and will never happen in an election year...shoot, it couldn't even happen when the Republicans owned the House, owned the Senate, and owned the Executive branch!
