Orderly? Not according to the Texas Gov: “Texas installed razor wire in Eagle Pass to stop illegal crossings,” Abbott explained on X, formerly known as Twitter. “Today the Biden Admin CUT that wire, opening the floodgates to illegal immigrants.”

Fed v state? Looks like a good way to break up the USA. Brilliant Biden.

You never wanted Trump to send troops to the border?

Oh god no the major reason we have such poor laws governing our borders is because the republicans like to use the issue to club the democrats otherwise an equitable solution would have been legislated years ago

So, when the Democrats controlled the White House and both houses of Congress why weren't the "poor laws" fixed?

It's exactly like climate change. The only way this gets fixed is to spread the wealth more equitably. Like it or not, this disparity in incomes and wealth is a major driver of immigration.

Isn't communism supposed to solve the problem of income disparity and inequitable income distribution?

In the meantime, surely you'd praise Biden for sending troops to the border?

Absolutely. It's about time. Good work Joe.

 

I just wish there were 2 more "zeroes" on the number being deployed.

Sanctuary cities all over are declaring states of emergency when they receive less than 1% of their population in illegal immigrants.

 

NYC metro area has about 18 million population.  Adams says that receiving 100K illegal immigrants will destroy the city.  That's a little over 1/2 of 1% of their population.

 

Martha's Vineyard declared an emergency and called out the National Guard when they received 50.  That's about 0.4% of their population.

 

Under Biden, between 5.8 and 8 million illegals have crossed the border.  That's between 1.7% and 2.4% of the US population.

 

I'd say it's time for Dem cities (especially sanctuary cities) to suck it up and take their fair share of the burden, instead of leaving it to the border states.  But the Dems don't need more voters in already Dem cities.  So that ain't gonna happen.

You couldn't answer a straight and relevant question if your life depended on it. I know that you supported Trump taking military action.

I never thought that any one individual could manage this but I don't think that you know anything, about anything.
