Illegal immigrants there? Not a problem. Illegal immigrants here? BIG PROBLEM!!
Illegal immigrants flooding into southern border states and bringing a wave of crime with them doesn't seem to be an issue. However, bus them to DC and it's suddenly so bad you need to call out the National Guard.

Yeah DC has a population of over 700K, gets around 4000 illegals, and it's a disaster. Meanwhile all those Southern border towns with 20K-50K populations are getting thousands of immigrants each and, "Why are those white supremacists complaining?!?"

A couple of years ago when there was a big outflux from North Africa to Europe, the German government was assigning illegals to various German towns. One small town in, IIRC, Bavaria was assigned a LOT of them, and the German government wanted to know all kinds of stuff - how many hotel rooms were available, even how many PRIVATE homes had an extra room.
The little town's leaders didn't respond. The first trainload of illegals showed up late at night to a train station that was all closed up - and it was cold. The bureaucrats riding along were upset. Little town kept ignoring them and IIRC, they had the German army come and set up tents, field mess kitchens, etc. for all the illegals.
Never heard a follow up of how the situation was resolved - or if it was. Maybe that little German town can teach the rest of us something about dealing with illegals.

I sell a LOT of car parts to people who only speak Spanish.
Why is that?
They are WORKING. Maybe you don't want to cut your own grass or trim your own trees or asphalt your own flat roof.
They're doing that. And they are looking to the future.
Some other folks are just waiting until the next opportunity to loot happens.
I figure that the criminal element is pretty small, overall, and has probably centralized in much larger cities.
I've had a lot more problems with white tweakers than I have with the mexicans.
Had a guy the other night had a frickin' mobile lab in my parking lot... GTFO...

Bogie, just because people speak Spanish doesn't mean they're here illegally - an awful lot of people from south of the border have entered this country the proper way, following the rules and obeying the law.

Bogie, just because people speak Spanish doesn't mean they're here illegally - an awful lot of people from south of the border have entered this country the proper way, following the rules and obeying the law.
And a lot have NOT entered the proper way.
My church (Episcopal) has a large enough Latino component among the parishioners that there's a separate mass in Spanish every Sunday. There's a Roman Catholic church a few blocks way that has changed its name to the Spanish version, and I think its congregation is now about 90% Latino.
Nobody ever speaks about it, but the Latino assistant pastor is a friend, and from various clues he has let slip I'm pretty certain that most of out Latino parishioners are illegals.
-
And a lot have NOT entered the proper way.
I agree with that 100%. My point was that there are Spanish speaking people that HAVE immigrated the right way - and some of those I've talked to are very, very upset with illegals.
-
Bogie- if the Spanish speaking people buying your car parts are illegals, they are criminals already. Most illegals have fake documents to allow them work (illegally). That is a felony, but no one in the government cares.
Our government is using immigration, both legal and illegal, to transform the demographics of the country into one that tolerates crooked and power-mad leftist rule in return for welfare payments.
Most countries in the world that are non-european in derivation are tribalist with governmental corruption as a norm. That is what the federal government wants.

Sad but true.
As an example of that "lawlessness", local St. Louis TV news stations were reporting of multiple people and vehicles being shot and shot at last night by several groups of "young people", some of whom were using what the reporters described as "AK pistols". The reporter then had to go on and explain how these were "smaller" but built to "look like" the rifles and he didn't know if they were "fully automatic or not". :facepalm:

DC Mayor Declares 'Public Emergency' Over Illegal Immigrants in Her Sanctuary City

Correct me if I'm wrong but I don't think Texas can deport people to another country. I think only the feds can do that and they're not in the least bit interested in doing so.
Besides Mexico doesn't like people crossing their border from the north uninvited
-

Well that would just be cruel! You can't kick people out of the United States!
Ben is correct -- expelling someone from the country is a Federal thing -- the states can't do it.
So Abbot came up with the next best, and perfectly legal, answer.

I just saw that the Chicago Mayor packed her illegals back up on another bus and sent them to a small village in the next county over, which apparently is not in a sanctuary county, like her city and county is.
It's a little confusing to see a sanctuary city mayor be NIMBY, but she's a progressive after all.
-

Because Mexico doesn't let people just cross their border without documents, or a plan to leave. Same with Canada, you can't just cross the border with a bunch of folks and dump them off. It's almost like those countries believe borders mean something.

Dupage County, former Republican county. County Line Rd is the border between Cook County and Dupage County. Under 15 miles to downtown Chicago. Burr Ridge is the home to Chicago professional athletes, rock stars, assorted millionaires and most everyone makes six figures and up (Estimated median household income in 2019: $165,505). The median is driven down by old sections that haven't been gentrified yet.
That's the south eastern part of Dupage county. That area is my old stomping grounds where I grew up and escaped from just recently. Went to the same high school with Burr Ridge kids. It is heavily wooded and had both rich estates and Illinois rednecks back when I was in HS. As a matter of fact the Midwests last remaining 1/2 mile clay oval short track was on the edge of Burr Ridge (closed in the early 90's). I could hear the races in the summer if my bedroom window was open, went to plenty of races while growing up. The region was pretty nice to grow up in and it's a dual tragedy of progress and wokeness in what it has become.

Chicago Mayor Lightfoot Calls TX Governor a Racist for Busing Illegals into Her City without Permission – Then She Quickly Busses Them to Affluent Suburb Nearby Without Permission

“This is not new; Chicago welcomes hundreds of migrants every year to our city and provides much-needed assistance. Unfortunately, Texas Governor Greg Abbott is without any shame or humanity. But ever since he put these racist practices of expulsion in place, we have been working with our community partners to ready the city to receive these individuals,” she added.
Now, several local news outlets are reporting that Mayor Lightfoot bused illegal immigrants from Texas last week to the suburb of Burr Ridge.

As an update . . . my cousin lives in another suburb of Chicago, Elk Grove Village. (It's NW of Chicago, just west of O'Hare Airport.)
She reports that 90 illegals just arrived there - their mayor doesn't really know what to do with them.

I think what all cities (including those here in TX should do) is - ignore them. Provide NOTHING - no food, no shelter, no meetings, nothing. Except maybe a one way bus ticket to some D stronghold.

In what way is this evil and inhumane? FL's migrant service programs are pretty much tapped out by the ones we have here. How is it bad to transport the folks we don't have the resources to support to states that have both the resources and, apparently, the desire to bring in and support refugees?

Over the years, dedicated humanitarians at the border like Sister Norma Pimental have built a network of shelters and service providers to help migrants get to their ultimate destination.

Regarding Florida and its "other" border, I have always found it interesting that fed.gov, across administrations, has enforced the border regarding migration from Cuba, which actually has a stronger case for asylum than "asylum seekers" from Mexico who are actually people either looking for a job or free stuff.
I'm not even sure what the status of "feet dry" is anymore.

I know I've already said this in my last three posts, but this is just such a brilliant move, especially using Martha's Vineyard, that it's just making my month. Every time I see the usual suspects yell "humanitarian crisis!" I just smile.
Since Brandon has been in office, FIVE MILLION illegals have entered the country at the Southern border, overwhelming all the poor communities there. The fact that fifty illegals in one of the richest communities in the US, if not the world, is causing such an uproar by the people who told poor towns in red states to suck it up is just UltraMagaSchadenfreude.

A couple of years ago, Europe was having its own illegal alien crisis with an influx from North Africa and the Middle East. Germany was accepting them, and sending them to different towns.
One fairly small town (tourism and skiing in the winter were the main businesses) was notified they were going to get a LOT of these illegals - amounting to a very significant fraction of their population. The German government demanded a list of all available hotel rooms, vacant office space and private homes with extra bedrooms. The mayor (burgermeister?) pointed out that the last in particular was prohibited since the German constitution prohibits taking people's homes to house others, and as for the other info demanded, well, they had no information on that. There was some back-and-forth on this.
Well, eventually, a train full of illegals pulled in late, along with some bureaucrats. They found the train station closed, locked, and dark, with nobody there except a janitor. No food, no transportation, no housing arrangements, no welcome committee - nothing. Phone calls to town offices got recordings saying they were closed.
Bureaucrats were furious - but the town was doing nothing. Ultimately they called the German army who came out and set up a tent city in a vacant field, along with field kitchens, latrines, etc. Last I heard, they were looking elsewhere for housing to accommodate the illegals . . . a situation that was due to get worse, since another trainload was supposed to come in soon.
Never saw a follow up, but I wonder if some border communities and border states here should do the same as that little German town.

No, DittoHead is right. This is a political stunt, in much the same way that declaring a city a sanctuary city is a political stunt. I think I like it, but it remains to be seen how it will play out.
The government seeding illegals throughout the US is not supposed to be visible, so it is not a political stunt.

The difference between the Democrats and the rest of America is what they want to do with everyone else’s property. Most Americans would rather be left in peace to follow their own dreams and desires—you might call that the “pursuit of happiness.” But a Democrat sees everyone else’s property as underused resources that he, in his wisdom, might put to better use. (Underused resources are a crime against “the people,” by which a leftist always means himself.)

Martha's Vineyard Takes Revenge On DeSantis By Shipping Him 50 Karens
https://babylonbee.com/news/marthas-vineyard-takes-revenge-on-desantis-by-shipping-him-50-karens
"Perhaps now DeSantis will think twice before he sullies our pristine white island with brown migrant people," said Martha's Vineyard HOA President Karen VonSchnitzel. "Once the charter flight filled with our neighborhood's most insufferable Karens touches down in Tallahassee, he will rue the day he made us look like heartless racists in front of the entire country. HAHAHAHAHA!"
The group of 50 Karens was selected from over 478 Karens who volunteered for the flight, as most women who live on the island are named Karen. "Hopefully this political stunt will help DeSATAN see the error of his ways," said HOA Vice President Karen Bohannan. "If not, we'll send even more. There are plenty more Karens where that came from!"
At publishing time, DeSantis confirmed the Karens had been apprehended by the Florida National Guard and were on their way to Gitmo.

Venezuela is sending its prison population to the US via the open border. Premium subscriber story, but here's the gist:
Venezuela is deliberately releasing prisoners, among them violent criminals, and has them travel to the U.S. southern border, a development that prompted 14 House Republicans to write to Homeland Security Secretary Alejandro Mayorkas.
Rep. Troy Nehls (R-Texas), who is leading the Republican effort to have Mayorkas answer questions, said in the Sept. 22 letter that the decision by the Nicolas Maduro regime has put the United States “in grave danger.”
“We write you with serious concern about a recent U.S. Department of Homeland Security (DHS) intelligence report received by Border Patrol that instructs agents to look for violent criminals from Venezuela among the migrant caravans heading towards the U.S.-Mexico border,” the letter says, citing a recent report from Breitbart.
The outlet reported on Sept. 18 that it had reviewed the DHS intelligence report from an unnamed source within the U.S. Customs and Border Protection (CBP). The report warned that released prisoners—including those convicted of murder, rape, and extortion—had been seen within migrant caravans traveling from Tapachula, Mexico, to the southern border, as recently as July.
The report also said the Bolivarian National Intelligence Service, Venezuela’s intelligence agency, may have played a role in deliberately releasing prisoners.
Hours after Breitbart published the report, Nehls took to Twitter to announce that he had obtained confirmation from the DHS.
“DHS confirms that Venezuela empties prisons and sends violent criminals to our southern border,” Nehls wrote. “President Trump warned us about this years ago.”

A friend's mother was horrified at the thought that a homeless shelter might be put in her neighborhood because, well, those people just weren't right for the high class tone of the neighborhood. But she was definitely all for a homeless shelter in a less affluent area. ;/

Fresh on the heels of NYC actually seeing illegal immigrants:
https://www.foxnews.com/politics/biden-administration-considering-plan-forcing-migrants-remain-texas
The link conveys the gist of it, but I especially like the use of GPS monitoring. Next Biden will start treating them like criminals or something!
The Biden administration is considering forcing migrants who cross into the United States illegally to remain in Texas while they wait out their asylum screening.
Administration officials cite the proposed plan as a way to curb the flow of illegal immigrants at the southern border, The Los Angeles Times reported, citing three U.S. officials not authorized to discuss the matter.
The plan would force migrants to remain in Texas, or possibly other border states by tracking their location through GPS monitoring devices, such as ankle bracelets, the officials told the Times.
-
Of course its unthinkable that they all be ejected from the country.

Democrats surely want their votes, but not living in their backyard.

So, just to be clear, this racist thinks immigrants make things worse, but that's a good thing. Also, as others have noted, he is well insulated from the negative impacts of immigration he predicts.
As far as "It's not a good way to live - in a gated community", I'm curious when he would like to start living his prescription for everyone else. Or does he think that living in a multi-million dollar apartment with good security is totally not the same thing?

What difference does it make that this point. Virtually none of them will ever be deported. They will have anchor babies, get on welfare and eventually be amnestied to vote for democrats. In the event of no amnesty, all their millions of kids will be voting for democrats anyway, it will just take a little longer.
The GOP committed slow motion suicide years ago with its refusal to crack down on immigration, legal and illegal. The entire country will eventually have the political sensibilities of California. If some states are holdouts, the Feds will just screw them over.

That's overly optimistic. Among other things we've imported is the numbness to and willingness to use violence so rampant in Africa and South America. We'll be shooting each other long before those anchor babies reach voting age.

Kidding aside, the Mexicans that came in in the 90s and 2000s are very different culturally than The Africans and South Americans coming in now. Sweden and France are better indicators of what happens when African 20 somethings fail to aculturize. And the only reason they aren't shooting each other, is the natives don't have guns.
Also look at things like the recent machete attacks in NYC, the ongoing low-level Somali violence in MSP and Chicago's steady escalation of violence. Contrast that with the native Urban Americans cultural belief that they can do whatever they want, to whomever they want and any response is racism. Those cultures will collide violently in the near future. Honestly the native Urbanites are lucky (or wiley) that they have been picking on mostly older north-east Asians. That culture is much more likely to just take getting beat up. I promise some youths playing the knockout game with Somali's or Algerians will end differently.

Biden Administration Reports Dangerous African Immigrant At Border
https://babylonbee.com/news/biden-administration-reports-dangerous-african-immigrant-at-border
"This is serious, folks," President Joe Biden said in brief remarks to reporters. "We've received reports of a very menacing African man roaming the region. Everyone knows I'm a long-time advocate for keeping an eye on these African fellas. This one is especially dangerous. He's here to…here to…he's got all of the…he runs the…the...the thing. Rocketship."

Because fed.gov has the largest vested interest in making sure that the conditions at the border remain deniable, and that's what was blocked.
The point being why would the fed.gov have to do the work when the lefty tech bros at X would likely do it without being asked.

I think his real motivation is that he thinks the additional wall will allow better control over his "catch and release" program for illegals entering the country. It will funnel illegals into areas where the DHS can more efficiently process them before being released into the USA.

I disagree, parts of southern Mexico and into central America are not the nicest places to live if you aren't connected to the cartels. They really don't have any options, governments are corrupt there, US isn't going to declare all-out war on the cartels, so what are they supposed to do? If you are a true believer of Christ, it is extremely un-Christian to ignore their plight.
Also, whitey isn't pumping out children anymore either, so we do need the bodies to fill employment.

My mother was an actual refugee in WW2, and I still recall her story of the choice of either going barefoot, or taking the boots off one of the bloated dead guys on the side of the road, as everyone in their group had to do.
The "refugees" that show up at our border wear Nikes, logo t-shirt, and more often than not, have a phone in one hand and a bag from the Burger King in Ciudad Juarez in the other. Because Mexico has a thriving economy and large middle class with suburbs and everything, and that's where the "refugees" should have stopped.

Many of our expensive goods are cheap AF in other countries. I was just in Puerto Vallarta area of Mexico 2 weeks ago, smart phones are cheap and so are plans (internet too). We are really getting screwed in the US. The few street markets I went to had copies of designer goods for cheap AF, I doubt you can tell the difference in a picture.
What I saw in Mexico was every little of the thriving middle class economy you are mentioning. All the nice places were owned (99 year bank trust leases) by Ex-Pats or seasonal tourists from the US and Canada. I'll be back there in 47 days, I can report more on the lack of thriving Mexican middle class if you would like.

An opinion piece only proves that others share your opinion, it does not provide evidence. An anonymous opinion piece lacks even that shred of credibility.
There are many that believe as you do, that the US caused the current problems with Latin America, and while I never defend the War on [some] Drugs, and it hasn't helped the situation, it's not the driving factor.
Indeed the US Intellectual class' determination to overlook other folk's self determination is one of the few bastions of real racisms left in this country. Latin America had help from the US and Europe, but their people, their culture, and to a great extant their Criminals are what led them to where they are now. If they don't fix those issues, no amount of action or inaction from the US will fix it.

You're not going to change my mind on that US Foreign Policy in Latin America caused the current problems and the immigration issues.
Just like Britian caused all the modern issues in the Middle East. Also the geopolitical problems in Africa stem from the European colonialism era.

Right. Because you believe brown people have no ability to self-determine, self-govern, or shape the future of any government or society they are a part of for decades, or centuries. They can only react to what the white man does to them. They have no ability to adapt their culture successfully.

I think his real motivation is that he thinks the additional wall will allow better control over his "catch and release" program for illegals entering the country. It will funnel illegals into areas where the DHS can more efficiently process them before being released into the USA.
According to this story in Breitbart, I may have been correct. Sec. Mayorkas is only building a few more miles of wall to redirect illegal immigrants to border crossing areas where they can be processed more efficiently and then released into the country.
The extra miles of border are not intended to stop the job-seeking economic migrants. Instead, Alejandro Mayorkas, the Cuban-born Secretary of Homeland Security, is asking migrants to safely register at the official gates along the border so they can be quickly released into U.S. society.

AOC is not happy (surprise!) and according to this they are restarting deporting Venezuelans
The Biden administration will resume deporting Venezuelans in another stark reversal on migration policy - as staunch Democrat Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez slammed the president for his 'cruel' move to resume border wall construction.
Ocasio-Cortez shamed Joe Biden and urged him to 'reverse course' after he launched new stretches of border barriers, a signature policy of Donald Trump that the president previously decried.
Meanwhile, the US will resume deporting Venezuelan migrants, the largest single group encountered at the southern border last month, back to their economically troubled socialist country.

Chicago sucks!
Since August last year, 20,700 migrants have arrived in Chicago from Texas. The Lone Star State's Governor Greg Abbott sent migrants to Chicago and other Democrat-run cities because of their proud status as 'sanctuary cities.' They offer enhanced protection against detention or deportation for undocumented migrants.
Now, Illinois' harsh winters, lack of migrant infrastructure, and ambivalent support from locals has made many people, who undertook the harsh US-Mexico border journey, actually turn around and go back home.
Venezuela-born Michael Castejon, 39, and his family have been sleeping on the floors of police stations and shelters after he could not afford to pay rent in Chicago - because his work permit was taking so long to arrive.
Castejon said the failed journey to settle in the US had not been worth it, despite the extreme poverty and an authoritarian regime they were living under in Venezuela.
After months of begging for money and crossing borders, the dreams that he had heard of from other migrants had failed to materialize for him, he revealed.
Michael Castejon, 39, told the Chicago Tribune: 'The American Dream doesn't exist anymore. There's nothing here for us.
Chicago is so unpleasant migrants are fleeing BACK to Venezuela after being dumped in shelters and refused jobs, with 20,700 border crossers so-far bused to Dem-run 'sanctuary city'

Mass immigration, legal or not is war upon the people of the country.
Unfortunately, we've already lost that stage of the war.
Not looking forward to the next phase of what they have in store for us.
Importing low IQ third worlders with low impulse control and no cultural connection to the nation as "foot soldiers" is probably not going to lead to times of peace and prosperity.
Heritage America was already being outbred, TPTB just turned the dial to 11.
If you reject the concept of replacement theory you have your head in your butt.
Demoralize and destroy the native populations culture, import new citizens is a time tested tactic of destroying nations and empires. At the very least, in the short term, it will consolidate TPTBs control of the land and resources.

The vast majority of the current wave, and almost certainly the Venezuelan quoted in that story aren't illegal.
They presented themselves at the border, requested asylum in the US, and are waiting for their determination to work it's way through the system.
That is allowed under current US immigration laws. We no longer require asylum to be asked for in the first country they get to, or while still in their own country.

No, they are being allowed into the country by executive orders upending and bypassing legislation passed by congress and signed into law. Hence, illegal.

Which is absolutely stupid. Besides the fact that 90% of these individuals are job and free stuff seekers despite their "asylum" claim, asylum should mean "I need to GTFO to the first safe place". It shouldn't be a menu of countries.
-
I didn't say it wasn't stupid, I said it was in compliance with current US immigration policy.
Rocketman, I am willing to learn but it was my understanding that the current migrant surge was following current immigration policy. That's why Border Patrol was cutting the barbed wire, because those folks were making an asylum claim and had to be processed.
I know the various changes in where asylum can be requested are coming from the executive branch, but I have to think of they were flat breaking immigration law DHS would be in court over it and to my knowledge they aren't.

A federal cabinet level agency doesn't take the federal government to court without a sign-off from the head of the agency. Who do you think is issuing the marching orders?

Texas would have.
I don't really want to get into a multi post back and forth on an immigration policy I also disagree with.
I was responding directly to Terry's post complaining that the conversation had lessened the impact by dropping the illegal adjective from the description. And more widely since Terry has been on a roll advocating for precision in language on here recently. (A goal I also agree with)
For all that it's retarded and destructive, the current wave of South American migrants seem to be complying with current US asylum policy and are not illegally in the country once they have been processed and released. Another reason why shipping them to Sanctuary Cities is so poetic.

Face it people, these are NOT "migrants, legal or otherwise !! :facepalm:
These are INVADERS, sent by their countries and allowed by ours, to undermine and destroy our economy and political system. [barf]
-
The Constitution, however, is silent on immigration. That is, the federal government is not explicitly granted a general power to exclude or remove noncitizens from the United States. Nevertheless, U.S. courts have allowed the federal government to exercise such a power.
https://education.nationalgeographic.org/resource/federal-role-immigration/
But:
10th Amendment: "The powers not delegated to the United States by the Constitution, nor prohibited by it to the States, are reserved to the States respectively, or to the people." Ratified by Required Number of States, December 15, 1791.
The Courts, unhappily, often ignore the provisions of the Constitution to our detriment. They are frequently intoxicated by their own verbosity.
I doubt that Texas (or New Mexico, or Arizona) would have allowed this... invasion... if it had retained the power to regulate international "immigration" to itself, per 10A, after 1845.

Guess Malibu beach is going to need a wall
Astonishing footage captured a boat filled with migrants landing on the beach in ritzy Malibu - close to the home of famed bleeding-heart liberal Barbra Streisand.
Around 25 people were seen leaping out of the vessel around 1am November 28, near the $100 million compound of Streisand an arch critic of Donald Trump, who called his border wall a 'monument to himself'.
The migrants all appear to have quickly fled the scene, meaning neither Streisand nor the scores of other wealthy, anti-border wall stars living in the area had to help them out, or offer shelter.
Barbra Streisand has lots of spare room! Astonishing moment boat full of migrant lands on MALIBU beach over 100 miles from Mexico-California border, close to home of megastar who lashed Trump's wall

Chicago mayor suing bus companies
Chicago Mayor Brandon Johnson has begun filing dozens of lawsuits against "rogue" bus companies transporting migrants from the southern border.
"The care of more than 24,400 migrants who have arrived in Chicago since August 2022 has taken on heightened urgency as winter sets in, and tested the limits of how welcoming the city can be," The Tribune reported. "The city has filed 55 lawsuits since it implemented new rules about when and where buses can arrive in mid-November, the Law Department said. The lawsuits address 77 total buses accused of violating the rules, and public records show at least some cases are seeking fines against the bus companies."
Mayor’s office spokesman Cassio Mendoza, in a statement to The Tribune, slammed "rogue, uncoordinated" buses, claiming they are endangering the lives of migrants, and called for bus companies to be held accountable.

The question that should be asked/answered...
If an alien waiting for their immigration court date, are they an illegal alien?
As per the Immigration and Nationality Act (INA), it is supposed to be 45 days for an interview and 180 days for a decision. Apparently, it is running at close to 2 years for the process to start.
Something else: Asylum seekers are also eligible for work authorization (including receiving a SSN card) if their case has been pending for more six months.

Last I knew, our southern border didn't touch Chicago or any part of Illinois. I don't think the City of Chicago has any authority to try to regulate interstate transit.

I just now saw an interview at the border with some "asylum seekers". It was a group of Indians. They all said the same thing regarding why they are crossing the border: "My life is in danger". Sounds like everyone is being prepped with talking points to work our ridiculously misused asylum laws. Also they were given appointment dates eight years out.
-
A sad part is that these people are also being held hostage to AMeriacn Political whims. No one knows what the American Federal Governmetn will look like in 8 years. It is not impossible that their hearing comes up, the current fed.gov is doing asylum reform, they are all blanket denied and deported, despite us letting them live here and build a life for damn near a decade.

One of the issues is that our existing Asylum Program is being raped hard.
In theory, I don't have a problem with the idea that folks that are in truly dire straights in other countries could apply for, and receive refuge in the US. In practice, there's a number of problems with the program including the length of time that it takes to get approval to travel out of somewhere supposedlly dangerous, to the US's inability to decide amongst ourselves how many refugees we'd care to shelter.
On top of that, the current administration is using that frame work to allow anyone that shows up at the border from anywhere slightly poorer or more dangerous than the US to enter the Asylum system, regardless of the actual state of the people at home. Hence the economic migrants seeking "asylum". But everyone that says the magic words gets a hearing.
From 1991 to 2021 The US admitted 797,950 asylum seekers (https://usafacts.org/articles/how-many-people-seek-asylum-in-the-us/) and it can be assumed that the system is set up to handle that flow with the normal fed.gov efficiency. Which is to say, not very well, but not a crisis. By May of 2023 1.3 million asylum applications waited (https://www.migrationpolicy.org/article/refugees-and-asylees-united-states) the 700 or so judges that do this. There are slightly more than double the number of applications processed in 20 years currently waiting to be looked at. By that standard 7 years out is looking pretty decent actually.
I'm not making excuses for the politicians whose cynical grab for more voters, bleeding hearts, or incompetency got us here, and Congress needs to put on it's adult pants and actually overhaul immigration policy, while making sure that the Executive actually starts enforcing laws. But even if we magically dropped a forcefield over the border today, we have a decade of processes and applications to wade through for approval or denial and subsequent deportation. In the meantime these folks, not all of whom are locust like invaders, will be living here, getting jobs, building businesses, paying taxes, marrying and having kids, etc. Joe Biden, in the last three years, has bought us an actual Humanitarian Crisis out of the one the Dems fabricated with staged pictures at empty fences.

I am friends with a Ukrainian refugee. He left with his family when the Russians invaded, and before the government banned men from leaving. He came in through the Mexican border. I asked him why he didn't stay in Europe... he said none of the places in Europe he went gave him permission to stay.

I'm not sure of its current state, or whether this was a UN or some other international agreement, but I'd still like to know whatever happened to "first safe country" for asylum seekers. It seems like in many instances, not only the first, but the second and third countries tell people to get lost, or else even help them reach our border, and then in they come with nary a glance.
I agree that our (and other countries - hello Mexico) system needs an overhaul, but part of that needs to include saying no to people that are gaming the asylum system, and telling them to get lost or get in line with the people legally migrating (and again, that needs to be streamlined). "Overhaul" should include a modern version of Ellis Island, where people are legally and medically screened. It wouldn't hurt to re-institute the old system, where people needed to show that they wouldn't be a financial burden, or else had a sponsor.

I can't speak for the whole community, but the local (Central FL) Mulims are a strange bunch politically. They tend to like big.gov, and are used to the government being heavy handed but tend to view the things our big.gov left does with something between horror and the burning hatred of 1000 suns.
Voting tends to be all over the place. The districts that include the large Islamic enclaves tend to go with whomever they are bunched with. If the district reaches out rural it goes red. If it encludes a bunch of liberals,or the hood, it goes blue. That leads me to believe the Islamic areas don't have a real strong lean either way.
That's just local to me though.

Concerning the flood of legal and illegal immigrants/invaders.
They will soon find the joke is on them. I'm not confident the USA will even be a first world civilization 20 years from now. There are huge problems finding qualified people to keep basic infrastructure maintained and replaced as needed. Looks like the plan is to just run everything into the ground.

Please tell me about this border with Mexico. If, nevertheless, the problem of illegal immigration exists (I do not believe that this is a made-up story) and has existed for so many years, why can’t we really install a reliable fence that prevents such illegal immigration?
I certainly understand that the border is large (I don’t remember, maybe 2 or 3 thousand kilometers), but a lot of time has already passed and during this time it would have been possible to build a new Great Wall of China (with modern technologies and financing opportunities)?
What is the reason?

What is the reason?
1. Politics. Means a portion (majority?) of elected officials support the illegal immigration and have managed to fill our immigration laws/regulations with more loop holes than you can shake a stick at.
2. A great deal of money is being spent by unspecified parties to support more illegal immigration into 1st world countries.
3. Free stuff being doled out to non-citizens (see #1).
-
Yes, there are certainly obstacles that would need to be overcome in order to reduce illegal immigration through an effective barrier, but you are also correct that it is an issue that could be resolved.
The problem is that there is not a general desire to accomplish that goal.
Many politicians - of both parties, but primarily Democrats - see value in bringing in large quantities of poor immigrants. While sometimes there is a vague pretense that this is for the moral good of improving the lives of said poor immigrants, the real reasons tend to be:
1. Some businesses benefit from a workforce of illegal immigrants who are willing to work for less than an ever-increasing minimum wage. These businesses buy politicians.
2. Democrats see political benefit in importing large numbers of people they believe will eventually swell their voting base.
3. Some politicians think there is a net increase in tax revenue because illegal immigrants are unable to take advantage of some benefits while contributing some tax revenue. I've seen this argued in both directions, though, and I'm not sure which is more correct.
So, lack of will, not of capability.
-
Thanks for the explanations, some reasons are clear to me, but some are absolutely ridiculous, for example:" they believe will eventually swell their voting base." - Is there really such a reasoning?)))
In any case, this seems to me too ridiculous and absurd a problem for such a strong country...

1. Politics. Means a portion (majority?) of elected officials support the illegal immigration and have managed to fill our immigration laws/regulations with more loop holes than you can shake a stick at.
2. A great deal of money is being spent by unspecified parties to support more illegal immigration into 1st world countries.
3. Free stuff being doled out to non-citizens (see #1).
4. The goal is to diminish the West in general and America in particular. Since raising up countries with poor governance and substandard cultural norms isn't working, equity requires diminishing the successful.

Thanks for the explanations, some reasons are clear to me, but some are absolutely ridiculous, for example:" they believe will eventually swell their voting base." - Is there really such a reasoning?)))
In any case, this seems to me too ridiculous and absurd a problem for such a strong country...
It's really not that absurd in our political structure. Black people, for instance, have historically voted very heavily democrat. The Republicans would argue that much of that is because under democrat administrations, that population gets more free stuff courtesy of taxpayers.
The democrat reasoning for southern immigrants is that if they encourage illegal immigration, give the illegal immigrants money, housing, etc (which they are currently doing), then wave a magic wand and give them all amnesty and citizenship, that this group will vote democrat in thanks.
Whether that would work or not is debatable, I suppose. Further, there can be unintended consequences, such as currently, the traditionally black population isn't really happy about another group getting preferential treatment, and many of them are switching to vote Republican.
-
Thanks for the explanations, some reasons are clear to me, but some are absolutely ridiculous, for example:" they believe will eventually swell their voting base." - Is there really such a reasoning?)))
Of course it is. Most immigrants (legal and illegal) are leftist. Massive immagration (of all sorts) tilts areas leftist. There is literally nothing stopping non-citizens from registering to vote, no matter the fact that it is illegal for them to vote in a federal election. Voter registeration works on the honor system. ;/
Also, immigrants from below the border are far more tolerant of corrupt government, as the expect it to be the norm. Politicians want to have a population that will keep re-electing them in return for welfare and racial preferences, no matter how corrupt and incompetent they are.
It is called the "great replacement theory" and is denounced as a racist consipiracy theory by every major media outlet, despite the fact that is blatantly true.
-
... some are absolutely ridiculous, for example:" they believe will eventually swell their voting base." - Is there really such a reasoning?)))
Yes. As has already been mentioned, whether the reason is cultural, transactional, or social, many of the illegal immigrants are (or are at least almost universally believed to be) significantly more aligned with the left in the US. There has been an ongoing push by the left to give illegal immigrants the ability to vote in local elections, as well as pushes to grant citizenship to various subsets of the group (most notably "dreamers", or illegal immigrants brought to the US as children). In addition, children born in the US to illegal immigrant parents are eligible to vote when they reach the age of 18.

COMMUNISM IS THE SOLUTION TO COMMUNIST DISRUPTION
Concerning the flood of legal and illegal immigrants/invaders.
They will soon find the joke is on them. I'm not confident the USA will even be a first world civilization 20 years from now. There are huge problems finding qualified people to keep basic infrastructure maintained and replaced as needed. Looks like the plan is to just run everything into the ground.
Correct. Long term always-successful strategy. Wreck a country, then declare Communism as the solution to the (Communist-generated) problems.
Hide the "Communism" with more gentle words like "socialism," progressivism," "liberalism," "forward-looking," etc. Simultaneously substitute fear words for common concepts. "Assault rifle" and "military-style" weapons come to mind immediately. Also "fascism."
We are cutting off our own cojones, Amigos.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hungarian_border_barrier
Hungary started building border fences long ago, there was one on the Hungary/Austria from 1950-1989, the latest one I found was built starting in 2015. The latest one seems have been effective:
Impact on the number of illegal migrants entering Hungary
Attempted border entries fell following the barrier's construction. During the month of September 2015 there was a total number of 138,396 migrant entries, and within the first two weeks of November the average daily number of intercepted migrants decreased to only 15, which is a daily reduction of more than 4,500.[42]
The fence pissed off a few people, UN, EU & eco-nuts included. Hungary basically told them to F-off.

Money is not a problem for securing the border. It's a lack of will, or more likely an intentional design to undermine American sovereignty. It's an America Last policy and both Democrats and Republicans are guilty.

With Texas stepping up to the plate, much of the surge has moved to Calif, with significant contingents of Chinese, Middle Easterners, and others not from the American continents. They didn't walk here, and that's a lot of safe countries that they passed to seek asylum. Calif, of course, is letting them all in. I wouldn't care except they won't stay there. Especially the people on the terror watch list and the South China Swords.

That's right. Congress could send most of them running back home. E-verify to get a job, e-verify to get any welfare, end birthright citizenship, shut down the "refugee" loophole, build a wall. Massive fines for employers hiring illegals. No government money for sancutary states or cities. Immediate deportation of any of them with contact with the police.
If they can't get a job or welfare, they will go home.
The leadership of the GOP and Democratic party want many millions of illegal aliens here. Illegals drive down wages and tolerate government corruption.

I agree, but I think the government handouts is the most important. I would expand it to ANY federally funded handouts which would cover a lot of state and local programs as well. Also add that any federal employees involved (processing paperwork or approving the payout) are subject to immediate termination for cause.
There is probably a big tangle of federal agency rules that have been pushed through that need to be purged as well.
-

Government corruption is the norm for non-western societies (not all, but most). The purpose of the government is to steal money from the treasury and direct it to favored groups. When you import non-Westerners, that is what they expect... and they want to be the groups getting the loot. Which the Democrats are eager to do, in return for their votes.
The WEIRDest People in the World by Joseph Henrich is enlightening.

Different source but I heard the same thing. ALL people are counted regardless of "citizenship status" as that also affects distribution of things like disaster relief supplies, food stamps, etc. As population density grows, districts become smaller but the number of "representatives" in Congress goes up.

What could possibly go wrong?
California moves to allow illegals immigrants to 'buy' homes with no payment, zero-down loans
https://thepostmillennial.com/california-moves-to-allow-illegals-immigrants-to-buy-homes-with-no-payment-zero-down-loans
The bill allows illegal immigrants to qualify as first-time home buyers and get loans up to 20 percent of the price of a house and the loan does not accrue interest or require monthly payments.
This program allows first-time home buyers to get a loan up to 20 percent of the price of a house and the loan does not accrue interest or require monthly payments. Instead, what occurs is that the buyer may then refinance the mortgage or sell the house and then pay back the original loan plus 20 percent of the home's equity increase. It was originally for those Americans living in California who could not afford a home but did not extend to illegal immigrants.
California proposes zero down, no payment home 'loans' for illegal immigrants
https://www.sfweekly.com/news/state/california-proposes-zero-down-no-payment-home-loans-for-illegal-immigrants/article_37819067-7005-51a7-9461-1495bf6dfcd3.html
The program in question — the California Dream for All Shared Appreciation Loans program administered by the California Housing Finance Agency — started in 2023 with $300 million set aside for 2,300 applicants, and ran out of funds in just 11 days. This year, the program will require applicants to be first-generation home buyers and reduce maximum income thresholds to 120% of county median household income. Under the program, applicants can secure “loans” of up to 20% of a home’s purchase price to first-time home buyers — the cost of a down payment — with zero down payment to the CHFA, and no payments on the “loan.”

Illegal migrant from Lebanon caught at border admitted he’s a Hezbollah terrorist hoping ‘to make a bomb’ — and was headed for NY
https://nypost.com/2024/03/17/us-news/illegal-migrant-from-lebanon-admitted-terror-ties/
Basel Bassel Ebbadi, 22, was caught by the US Border Patrol on March 9 near El Paso, Texas. While in custody, he was asked what he was doing in the US, to which he replied, “I’m going to try to make a bomb,” according to a Border Patrol document exclusively obtained by The Post.
But Ebbadi later claimed in an interview that he had been trying to flee Lebanon and Hezbollah because he “didn’t want to kill people” and said “once you’re in, you can never get out,” according to internal US Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) documents.
Border agents continue to see a surge in migrants whose names appear on the terror watchlist entering the US illegally as crossings continue at record levels.
Probably should keep this one in custody instead of buying him a bus ticket. ... probably not the only one though.

I'm starting to come around to the "two fences and a minefield" border plan.
Pretty much where I've been at with it. Or, open the border and create a process for all the immigrants. We need to either decide that the open border is okay, and deal with that accordingly, or decide that it is not, and shut it down accordingly. It's not like we can't do area denial. This middle ground is worse then either. As it stands we have a de facto open border with no structure to deal with it because it is de jure closed.
This and a fair number of other things I think are victim of a no long term strategy; a consequence of our political system.

Accurate dictionary definition. That "independently" doesn't always play off IRL, with the NGO working the grey area and doing things for a gov agency that said agency would get an IG investigation for.
That really got its legs under Obama. in my AO of the gov, I first saw the political appointees with an NGO background, then they hired their NGO buddies at the SES level, then those guys hired GS-15s, and that's where the NGOs really get entrenched in a deep state kinda way. Within a couple of years, it was quite common for me to run into GS-11s thru 14s whose last gig was Environmental Defense Center or similar, and, "Yeah, GS-15 Bob who I used to work for brought me in."

1) They feel like they've let in enough illegals to guarantee future elections including 2024.
2) They feel like they haven't let in enough but realized this issue could cost then in 2024 and they need to pause the inflow only to resume it afterwards.

I'm of two minds about some on the left suddenly realizing the border is an issue
1) They feel like they've let in enough illegals to guarantee future elections including 2024.
2) They feel like they haven't let in enough but realized this issue could cost then in 2024 and they need to pause the inflow only to resume it afterwards.
There is a quote by Arthur C. Clarke that is appropriate to your numbered theories.
“Two possibilities exist. Either we are alone in the Universe, or we are not. Both are equally terrifying.” - - Arthur C. Clarke 12/16/1917 – 3/19/2008

What difference does it make now.
The tens of millions of illegals here are never going to be shipped home.
There are already enough of them to ensure national dominance of the democratic party for decades once their offspring start voting.

I am less concerned about them voting than just fake voter registrations and fake votes.

They don't need to vote. Just be settled in Blue States and be counted in the census.
It's actually better for the Dems if they don't vote. They might have pesky family values or dislike communisum after their experiences with it. If they pump up the electoral votes and congressional seats of places like CA, IL, and NY without risking changing the voter base, that meets the goal.

This seems to be coming out more and more. Proven for legal immigrants. For the illegals, I think the "yay Biden" stuff we see with the illegals on the border is based on news and information they get on the South side. Not just from their own versions of the MSM, but as we have now seen, even NGOs and other manipulators.
Even those that come here looking for free stuff have "conservative" values on many social subjects. Often religion based. Whether Catholic or Muslim, those values are ingrained into them from an early age (Catholic here) and I think they trump any "free stuff" socialist views they have. The whole 100 genders and related stuff is abhorrent to them, and we've certainly seen the shocked faces of white liberals when, for example, they expect to find common ground on transgender rights with Muslim women.

They are going to have citizen kids, get huge amounts of welwelfare, and vote mostly left, just like every other non-white group in the entire country.

Many years ago, 1996 to be specific, I actually witnessed illegals being given voter registration materials at the DMV in Oregon. The DMV claimed they were required to because of the motor voter laws in effect. At that time Oregon would issue drivers licenses to illegals. OR.gov claimed to have stopped issuing licenses to illegals around 2000, but I believe they restarted the practice a few years later.
