Hey sanctuary Governors and Mayors... You don't get it... no one is asking for your help.

To allow tens of millions of migrants to overrun the country soaking up resources, sheltering known and probable criminals and those intent on terrorist activities, increasing violent and property crime wherever large numbers of them congregate, and making a mockery of our laws. . .that hurts everybody. And since they are breaking a federal law that of necessity must be a federal law for the sovereignty of the USA and the general welfare of the people, to shelter or protect the lawbreakers should in itself be a crime.

A reminder, those seeking asylum at ports of entry are not breaking the law...

They are if they didn't seek it first in the country they passed through.

That doesn't change the fact that 99% of them are not actually in a position to seek asylum, they are just told to do that because it's the slowest process with regards to them being sent home.

I am just pointing out that under current law they are not breaking the law.

But it's a great opportunity to do virtual signaling anyway. In fact I support the position of a state governor who takes issue with a federal policy to be able not to cooperate with it so long as it causes harm to no one.

The institution of the state governments is a very important part of the Union. You can't support the electoral college and at the same time deny a governor his right to stand against Washington DC.

Now having said that... It is also not expected that anything active in the way of hindering will take place. If ICE shows up to arrest an illegal alien criminal they don't expect to find State Police standing in front of the door stopping them.

I believe many of the police departments will cooperate anyway even without the governor's approval. However I stand by my statement that a state should have the ability to say no to DC on issues pertaining to those things taking place within the boundaries of their purview.

All "sanctuary" for criminals policies need to be legally declared as the insurrection that they are, and any elected official participating in them needs to be arrested and prosecuted.

They are when they know darn well they aren't eligible for asylum which is the case with the vast majority but our corrupt government doesn't care. So all they have to say is asylum and the CBP has to let them in.

That so-called immigration reform thing the Republican refused to pass would have allowed close to two million 'asylum seekers' to cross the southern border every year and be allowed into the country. And if the maximum allowed was reached, all others could come on in too just by telling the CBP they were 'afraid' and the CBP would required to let them in. You can be sure that whomever is funding the invasion would inform them of that too.

Biden's migrant policies were intended to dilute the American public as much as possible to the advantage of those who want total power.

if they give false evidence of them being "asylum seekers" they are.

Thats not breaking the law. If you don't like it...change the law.

Yes, but appealing for asylum is not breaking the law. Again, if you want it to stop you have to CHANGE the LAW. Nothing is stopping you from CHANGING THE LAW.*

*I am onside with changing the law.

 

[marvin martian]

Yes, but appealing for asylum is not breaking the law. Again, if you want it to stop you have to CHANGE the LAW.

The law states that asylum seekers need to come in through a legal port of entry. That's not happening in many cases.

Yes, that is illegal.

On abortion Republicans run the gamut on it, from total bans to no restrictions, with most in the 6-12 week range for birth control abortion restrictions.

Gay Marriage really isn't being debated anymore, it's more the forced acceptance of it that is the problem.

Almost all don't want men competing in women's sports, but the tolerance of adult transexuals is varied.

You know what cracks me up? You can't find one Democrat who was running for office who said they were FOR trans men competing against women in college sports. But boy did you guys saddle us with that.

 

[Foxfyre]

It does break the laws now on the books that the Biden administration pretty much ignores. I expect Trump to reinstate the 'remain in Mexico' policy for asylum seekers until their request for asylum can be adjudicated meaning most will just go back home or not come at all. And I expect he will again require Mexico to refuse the caravans access into Mexico on their way to the USA. (That's how he was getting Mexico to pay for the wall by the way.)

And I hope the GOP will pass meaningful reform that again specifies what countries would justify asylum seekers, stop the anchor baby and chain migration rackets, expect asylum seekers to seek asylum in the first country they come to instead of bypassing all to get the freebies in the USA, etc. And ICE and the CBP will again be able to do their jobs to protect and defend the USA. And that would also stop the vast majority of the cruel and dangerous child and sex trafficking and thousands of the other criminally minded that is now the norm under current policies and be one more tool to help stop the drug trafficking industry.

Your entire party supported Biden's destruction of Title IX.

Unless Mexico says no.

Can you see being for Title IX but against trans men competing against women? I can.

Title IX is a federal civil rights law that protects people from sex discrimination in education programs and activities that receive federal funding. It was signed into law by President Nixon in June 1972.

Well last time he threatened tariffs on all cars manufactured in Mexico for the U.S. market and Mexico was most happy to stop the caravans to avoid that. They put up to 27,000 of their military on their southern border to stop the migration. That would probably work again.

That was last time. We don't know what would happen this time. China is now quite active in Latin America.
Tariffs would hurt US citizens purchasing those vehicles...(plus violate Trump's own trade agreement with Mexico).

It is never smart to count Trump out until he actually can't do it.

I think if the federal government wanted to bad enough, they could raid Michigan's pot distributors.

Interesting, Trump is okay with legalizing Pot. Ron DiSanctimonious is not.
