https://www.nbcnews.com/politi...otiations-rcna125151 No good answers for Biden as voters recoil over border crossings President Joe Biden finds himself caught between the right and the left, searching for answers on immigration ahead of the 2024 election. Dec. 2, 2023 , 6:00 AM EST (Excerpt) Biden is facing a monumental crisis as unlawful border crossings spike and migrants arrive in crowded cities with no jobs or places to sleep, stirring resentment among Democratic governors and mayors who are part of his governing coalition. Biden has another incentive to agree to more restrictive asylum policies — he dearly wants more money for Ukraine so that it can repel Russian forces. The president has put forward a supplemental spending request that would go toward helping Ukraine and Israel in their respective wars, which Republicans in Congress want coupled with strict new border provisions. The debate over immigration has shifted from finding a humane way to deal with undocumented immigrants already living in the U.S. to stopping more from coming in. On his first day in office, Biden put forward a bill that would provide a vehicle for undocumented immigrants to become U.S. citizens. It has gone nowhere in Congress; Biden has been reluctant to invest scarce political capital into passing the bill at the expense of other legislative priorities like upgrading the nation’s infrastructure. “In nearly three years since [Biden took office], Congress has failed to act on it,” a White House official said, speaking on condition of anonymity to discuss policy-making. “Because of their failure, the administration has focused on implementing a strategy of humane, safe and orderly enforcement, and have put in place policies to process individuals in a fair and fast manner, and continue to remove those without a legal basis to remain in the United States.” When he was president, Trump described sending migrants to Democratic-run cities as his own “sick idea.” In a sign of how the immigration debate has shifted, Trump’s “sick idea” has gone mainstream. Republican governors Greg Abbott of Texas and Ron DeSantis of Florida managed to divide Democratic officials by sending undocumented immigrants into blue cities and states. Strained by the influx, Democratic mayors and governors have in some cases blamed the White House for not doing enough to ease the burden. Illinois Gov. J.B. Pritzker sent a letter to Biden in October warning of a migrant “crisis” in his state and faulting the administration for a lack of “intervention and coordination at the border.” Flying with the president on Air Force One the following month, Pritzker, a Democrat, again raised the issue of migrants entering his state and seeking asylum. The migrants, coming mostly from Texas, needed proper housing and other resources that Illinois was hard-pressed to provide. “The president understood his frustration and immense need for more aid,” a person with the governor’s office told NBC News. New York City Council members traveled to Washington, D.C., earlier this year to talk to Biden administration officials and lawmakers about a crisis that has forced migrants to sleep on streets in some cases. “It’s not the responsibility of a municipality to finance or manage an international migrant crisis,” Justin Brannan, a Democratic city councilman who was on the trip, said in an interview. “The city doesn’t have a Department of Resettlement. We don’t have the agencies or the bandwidth or the expertise to do that.” “Honestly, the lack of response from the White House has been puzzling,” he added. ============================================================================================ Also: https://www.pbs.org/newshour/p...n-border-enforcement Biden promises to veto any House GOP bill on border enforcement Politics May 8, 2023 4:58 PM EST ======================================================================================== https://youtu.be/fC49pPR1Ryk?si=JqnJPoYutUoziSbY Why illegal crossings are on the rise at the southern border ===================================================================================== https://www.usatoday.com/borde...y-methods/559784001/ A human smuggler, and the wall that will make him rich Daniel González & Gustavo Solis | azcentral.com | The Desert Sun https://www.usatoday.com/borde...g-methods/605530001/ Border crossers, and the wall that won't stop them Rafael Carranza | azcentral.com | USA TODAY NETWORK ************* Real conservatives aren't radicalized.

Your awe is of your own making. Thanks for thinking I'm capable and willing to use "mental gymnastics". I suppose that's projection on your part, which maybe explains your awe. I quickly read the article you linked and nowhere in it did I see the words "open border". Maybe I missed it. What I saw was "Biden Admin Open to new border policy". But somehow you read it as just "open border". Weird. Could you possibly be demonstrating to us how rightists' propaganda narratives can find a niche in even the best minds? ************* Real conservatives aren't radicalized.

ME, that you demand specific labels is weird -- i mean, i bet there's NO instance of trump calling himself a fascists -- but you sure ladle that term around. let's just agree you are a HYPROCRITE in playing word games, which I'd nicely labeled "mental gymnastics" ... please don't answer immediately - take a couple minutes to think about related cases where you have run into similar circumstances in your mouth. but who am I to ask you to take a moment of self-reflection -- including your projection of your behavior when it's been called out - it's natural to reject criticism, but to totally lash out in inversion is a thing opinions vary band of bubbas and STC hunting Club Information on Ammoguide about the416AR, 458AR, 470AR, 500AR What is an AR round?

Okay. A moderator - that's who. But I did a search on "has Trump ever called himself a fascist"? The results are: https://www.google.com/search?...sclient=gws-wiz#ip=1 I would like to reach a truce with you Jeffee. The ability to express myself, the free speech thing and all, is a wonderful thing here. Thanks Saeed. But using the word "fascist" isn't that important to me. It's just that authoritarian is harder to spell and type, plus the "A" word needs adjectives such as rabid, toxic, etc., for emphasis. The "F" word is sufficient. Trump's words and deeds and his approval/following and his owning the GOP speaks for itself. I'll let the pundits and media and folks who know more about it that I have at it. They are doing a good job with the issue, those I pay attention to, mostly reporting Trump's own words and associated facts. ************* Real conservatives aren't radicalized.

So what if Trump doesn't call himself a fascist. He doesn't talk about his small pecker either. And we don't agree that I'm a hypocrite, playing word games. Saying "open borders" and "border crisis" are two different things. The first is a catch phrase, a narrative handle designed for political gain and harm and isn't designed to reflect the truth at all. The "border crisis" is real, and actually says enough. In significant part both parties own the crisis, the GOP for spreading the lie that the borders are open and for not acting of Biden's border policy reforms and the Dems for several other reasons. So, I'm not playing word games at all. I'm sorting out the word games of others, particularly the GOPers. The use of the words "open borders" is a political word game, designed for harm, or gain, not at all to reflect the truth. And that's typical. Tucker Carlson used the term for/with great effect. Anything he says should be considered a lie, by sane people. You are correct in that I can say herein such things as fascist and the "open border" narrative is a lie, but saying it in person causes hackles to raise. People get emotional and defensive about such things because emotion, even passion, is what caused the belief that Trump is not a fascist wannabee and the borders are actually open. To acknowledge otherwise would stir, cascade, their rigid beliefs too deeply. https://www.politifact.com/fac...letely-open-s-false/ US southern border 'completely open'?

Try authoritarian or totalitarian or dictator, or narcissist. Insofar as your claim that Trump has not called himself a fascist, you will find a null set for those other words too. You may find where he's said he's a patriot, while clutching the flag and using the word "vermin" to describe non-loyalists. You won't find where he's called himself a Christian either, while holding a Bible and hands-on prayer circle jerk for photo-op. And you won't find where he's referred to himself as a birther or former democrat or anti-pro-lifer or draft evader, but he called John McCain a loser, among other nasty things, then lied and said he didn't. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/...ments_on_John_McCain ************* Real conservatives aren't radicalized.

You think there are Russians infiltrating into the United States through the southern border? Ask the Israeli's how having the most patrolled, protected, walled-off real estate in the world worked out for them security-wise. The Gaza strip is 25 miles long. Nothing we can do along our 2,000 mile border to prevent terrorists from coming across it if they are determined to do so.

Just in case Mike dosen't care for the linked article from the Daily Wire, here's another from a different source: And Mike, you will note, it is Director Wray who confirmed the National Security threat, not Rupert Murdoch and the Koch Bros https://homeland.house.gov/202...risis-at-the-border/ From FBI Director Christopher Wray: "...Director Wray confirmed the national security threat posed by the nearly 1.8 million gotaways and the rising number of individuals on the terrorist watchlist apprehended crossing the Southwest border, as well as the more 7.8 million individuals encountered by Customs and Border Protection (CBP) since Biden and Mayorkas took office. Mayorkas could not confirm whether every suspected terrorist that crosses the Southwest border illegally is detained by CBP..." “FBI Director Christopher Wray on Wednesday said that the number of illegal immigrants evading Border Patrol agents and escaping into the country is a source of “great concern” for the agency, as he told lawmakers that threats from the other side of the border are “consuming” FBI field offices." “Wray testified to lawmakers on the House Homeland Security Committee about “worldwide threats” to the U.S. Chairman Mark Green asked Wray about the numbers of gotaways — illegal immigrants at the border who evaded Border Patrol — which have exceeded 600,000 in FY 23." . | |||

I'm not saying there isn't a potential threat. Of course there is....and has been for decades, I might point out. I'm saying that the idea that a group of terrorists would utilize the southern border as an entry point seems pretty remote. Walking or driving across Arizona or south Texas with bombs and AK-47's? Why wouldn't they just fly in? And, buy a bunch of AR's and AK's at a gun show along with a shitload of ammunition? And build their own explosives? We need comprehensive immigration reform to deal with the problem. These people want to work to take care of their families. They're not terrorists or Russian spies for god's sake. They want construction and service jobs. You know, the jobs Americans aren't usually interested in doing. In other words, I'm not buying the argument that keeping immigrants out is a national security issue. If it is, it's been one that both the republicans and the Democrats have been ignoring for a long time. -Every damn thing is your own fault if you are any good. | |||
