Border security disaster

Doubling down on the stupid act is a bold play, Cotton.

As is failing to answer a seemingly simple question.

Acting as if you have no clue of what the Biden administration has and hasn’t done with regards to immigration policy is tripling down on an ignorant act. Always a good foundation to a respectful conversation.

If we’re going to have a respectful conversation about immigration policy, it would help to understand there are international human rights laws at play in the discussion. If you want the United States to continue breaking international laws we agreed to follow surrounding asylum seekers, that’s fine, just be up-front about it, Mr. Law and Order.

How has he welcomed illegal immigrants? Why didn’t the fence stop them? Do these immigrants watch Fox News?

The Fox News crutch. Now backing up the ignorant act with bad cliches.

How has Biden welcomed illegal immigrants? And how do the illegal immigrants jumping the border know that he has welcomed them? Presumably from some news outlet similar to the one who told you this information, right?

You’re smarter than this.

Me thinks you have him rated far too high.

Then why don't we do what our allies do?

Oh, that's right, our own allies are worse than Trump on his worst day. The Germans jailed, and when those filled up, actually had interment camps that rivaled the The Gangs of New York, letting them kill each other at times.

Talk to American servicemen and women who witnessed some of those.

And once Germany turned them all ay, the Czechs, Romanians and Hungarians dealt with the fallout. The Hungarians just built an effective wall, and went full Xeno. The Czechs and Romanians are still seeking damages.

I really think Americans need to realize that we're still the most understanding nation and don't even require meritocratic immigration like our allies.

Unfortunately our rates since 2013 haven't been sustainable, and we've been anti-meritocratic all this century... the worst result.

We made it so difficult for the world's best to even get a Green Card, and the H1B system is designed to screw over immigrants. All while we have a floodgate of those who don't care, and are under the thumb of organized crime.

We used to balance worthy against refugee, so we had both productive and leaching at the same time. But now we argue extremes... and both are wrong.

And we're turning organized crime into a black market GDP that Rivals our official GDP.

But at least the US is still not doing things Australia, Britain, Canada, Germany and others are very guilty of doing.

Then why don't we do what our allies do?

So our response to violating an international law that we agreed to abide by it to....(cue drumroll)....point an accusatory finger at Johnny and say, "HE DID IT TOO!"

Okie-doakie.

They are much, much worse. It's not even comparable. I'm sorry if you want to remain so tunnel-visioned and not realize ... we're nothing compared to all our allies.

You scream, "Violating International Law," even if it doesn't stick. Why? Media sheepism.

Even if it doesn't stick? Is that supposed to mean we're not breaking any 'real' laws?

I could have sworn the right to seek asylum was incorporated into international law following the atrocities of World War II. Congress adopted key provisions of the Geneva Refugee Convention (including the international definition of a refugee) into U.S. immigration law when it passed the Refugee Act of 1980.

That sure sounds like the real-deal law of the land to me. if you want to argue we should break our internatonal and US immigrations laws, that's one thing. But acting like these laws are all some 'smoke and mirrors' fabrication of the media is just you shoveling more bullsh*t.

If you are seeking asylum you are supposed to do it in the first country that can accept you, not keep going until you get where you want

Which is why the Candians complain about the US, like the US complains about Mexico. Although the Canadians do like to just jail and deport far more than us. Because they have meritocratic policies and quotas, unlike us.
