It was illegal. Trump ended DACA because it was headed towards a swift ass kicking by SCOTUS for being a gross overstep of powers by the Obama Admin.
DACA was an Unconstitutional move by the Executive that literally made it worse for everyone.
To Trump's credit -- and the US media doesn't proliferate this -- he was willing to put virtually all DACA residents who had never committed a felony on the route to citizenship, because they were seen as helping the economy and would be great American citizens. But he wanted to 'close shut' the Constitutional issues that the Obama administration had created, which was only incentivising
organized crime.
Make no mistake,
since 2013, we're on the path of
unsustainable, undocumented residency. The
Obama administration
knew this, and
reversed course. Unfortunately, it was too late.
And the Catholic Church was the first ones to make Obama aware. Because the first place most undocumented residents go when they cross-the-border is a Catholic Church. The Church always helps them, and does not report them to INS -- unless they are clearly part of the organized crime syndicates or otherwise violent.
The Church takes money from the US federal government to help resettle, but the sheer rates since 2013 have seen the government no longer do such for everyone the Church helps. Understand the Church still does this
at a loss, even with the government funds. It's just a "little help," the majority comes from private donors and the Church's own riches.
And the Catholic Church is not the only charity doing this, although faith-based charities are primarily responsible for care, feeding and resettlement. Which is why the government is building tent cities, as even undocumented residents eventually find their way to government facilities in services as a result of the
lack of opportunity, food and shelter.
It's utterly unsustainable. Everyone knows it. CBP, DEA, DHS, ICE, INS, et al. are
not the problem. It's the flow! Germany went through this as well -- let alone the Czech Republic (currently suing the EU-Germany), Romanian (also suing) and Hungary (who built a wall, and is suing too) -- who
jailed them and started prosecuting them, including entire families. The US media doesn't cover that -- Germany did such, and had nearly 1M in makeshift interment camps when
their jails overflowed.
And I just explained that the GOP is not hand sitting - they've passed bill after bill in the House that would immediately dent illegal immigration immediately. The issue, as I said, is that the Democrats in the Senate are uninterested in curbing illegal immigration and prevent even approaching the 60 votes needed. They are all-in on mass illegal immigration followed by mass amnesty.
And with welfare. And that's what burns me up.
The Democratic party is not about fare wages for immigrants. Otherwise they be for Green Cards and fair wages. But no, they are for welfare instead, and California is a perfect example of this at a state level that is pissing everyone off.
And that's why the Democratic party is no different than the Republican party -- both want cheap, undocumented labor for their big business friends, but the Democratic party argues the tax payer should pay welfare, while the Republican party does not.
We Libertarians want to see the end to all work Visa programs, and force the US federal government to hand out Green Cards. With Green Cards, they can demand the same wages. And in that case, they'd just hire Americans if there are enough qualified Americans. We all win.
Immigrants get fair paying jobs, and Americans don't have jobs taken away -- or at lower wages -- from immigrants there are enough Americans qualified to do the work. Win-win-win for everyone ... sans the big business.
This is
the real debate, not the TV media one that is a total joke of fantasy.
