Supreme Court extends pause on deportations under Alien Enemies Act in Texas

[Robert W]

Even that would be cheaper than keeping them here. Air force personnel are required to log so much air time anyway. Let them log it taking those immigrants back to their home countries. At least the flights would not cost us a dime we aren't spending anyway.

Yes, the U.S. government is offering voluntary travel assistance and a $1,000 stipend to individuals in the U.S. illegally who choose to self-deport through the CBP Home App, according to a news release from the Department of Homeland Security. This initiative aims to streamline the removal process and reduce costs associated with traditional deportation efforts.

The program incentivizes voluntary departure by providing financial and travel assistance, including a $1,000 stipend after return to the home country is confirmed through the CBP Home App. This method is presented as a "dignified way to leave the U.S." and allows individuals to avoid potential encounters with ICE.

The Department of Homeland Security (DHS) states that the use of the CBP Home App for self-deportation is projected to decrease the cost of a deportation by around 70% compared to the current average cost of $17,121 to arrest, detain, and remove an individual.

People applying for permanent resident cards are not "interlopers

They are entirely all aliens. Aliens who do things properly can come in. Those rushing the borders can't come in. They are interlopers.

People applying for permanent resident cards are not "interlopers," they are people with a vested interest in staying in America and very often eventually becoming citizens. You worry about these people and about babies instead of illegal immigrants, which are the real problem. If you just hate immigration in general, just come out and say that you don't understand America.

What do they become when a “judge” determines that do not qualify for asylum?

Holy shit, how stupid are you? Someone applying for permanent residency is NOT applying for asylum.

Thats how it should be

ICE at the exits of the courtroom waiting to arrest the unlucky migrants as soon as their request is denied

Aren't they still residents of other countries waiting on the application to be approved?

In 2023, nearly 1.2 million people were granted lawful permanent residence in the US, which is equivalent to receiving a green card. This represents an increase from the previous year when around 1.02 million people received green cards. The number of applications pending for green cards has also seen a decrease, with 14% fewer applications pending in 2019 compared to the previous year.

There is no authoritative answer to the number or illegals of fake asylum seekers living in the US

Anyone who says they know for sure, including the government, are liars

I use the term “up to” 40 million because I am just guessing along with libs libs who prefer to use the piddling (and insulting) figure of 11 million

I think most thinking persons believe the Biden administration, given the estimated hundreds of thousands or more of 'gottaways' that bypassed the CBP by sneaking in increased the number of migrants/illegals in the country by at least 20 million or more. And if we assume we had up to 20 million already here, your 40 million number doesn't sound all that implausible.

Migrants must first be accepted for asylum before applying for a green card

Migrants must first be accepted for asylum before applying for a green card

Uh-oh....ya jumped the shark.

Asylum is just one way to enter the country....and until recently..fairly rare

The most common is someone on a Visa..work usually..sometimes student---who wishes to stay permanently and makes application.

...

They are usually people already here on some legal visa of some sort. Once the application has been accepted they are allowed to stay legally until the application has been processed. Even if approved, the whole process takes years and many trips to the local immigration office (think DMV only MUCH worse).

If they are turned down for asylum then they are here illegally

No green cards for them

I know of Green Cards and wonder when in their native country, how long does it take just to get the first green card?
