Why did you allow them in the country in the first place?" asked host Chris Wallace. "Why didn't you build — forgive me, a wall or a fence to stop them from walking — this flood of people coming across the dam, it looks like a highway that allows them to cross the Rio Grande."
"It is the policy of this administration," Mayorkas answered. "We do not agree with the building of the wall. The law provides that individuals can make a claim for humanitarian relief. That is actually one of our proudest traditions."

The subtext of Mayorkas's answer seemed clear: A wall or fence would stop people from crossing the border illegally, which would interfere with their right to "make a claim for humanitarian relief." So there shall be no wall or fence.
What kind of bullshit logic is this?
People are supposed to go to the US embassy in their nation or an adjacent country to declare asylum from violence.
You lefties are so fucking dumb
