Open-Armed Chicago Feels the Strains of a Migrant Influx

https://www.yahoo.com/news/open-armed-chicago-feels-strains-181944203.html

Chicago, a "sanctuary city".........hey looks good on paper. now? "hey we didn't want all these people. We can't deal with them." "Governor Abbot in Texas is responsible for this".

No one cares about illegals until it hits THEM in the pocketbook.

So, 2.4 million migrants have crossed the border in the last year; but Friday and Saturday's crossings "cut the catastrophe in half".

That sure is a 'special' way of looking at things. rofl

Governor Abbot is not responsible for any of this. The federal government is completely to blame for abdicating their responsibility to secure our borders and create immigration policies that work.

Abbot is just doing what he can for his state, one of the few that take the brunt of the illegal immigration.

Bro, you need to "bone up" on the shell game being played.

The border crisis is now the fault of the republicans...

Yes or no?

Do you mean like this?

President Joe Biden's administration this week will begin denying asylum to migrants who show up at the U.S.-Mexico border without first applying online or seeking protection in a country they passed through.

It's part of new measures meant to crack down on illegal border crossings while creating new legal pathways, including a plan to open 100 regional migration hubs across the Western Hemisphere, administration officials said.

While stopping short of a total ban, the measure imposes severe limitations on asylum for those crossing illegally who didn't first seek a legal pathway. The rule was first announced in February and is being finalized Wednesday, the officials said. It's almost certain to face legal challenges. In 2019, then-President Donald Trump pursued similar but stricter measures, but a federal appeals court prevented them from taking effect.

You mean like, if I do some faulty electrical wiring and the whole block of houses burn down, one by one; it's all good as long as I show up with a fire extinguisher before the last shed is in ashes?

Yep, that's what I meant lol.

Acting like doing something two years later absolves you of the disaster you created is the typical liberal response. Thanks.

This system you're trying to whatabout into a talking point is futile anyway. The app doesn't even work. But we'll assume they work out the kinks and it's at least fully functional someday... We'll try math, I assume you learned a little of that starting about 50 years ago. This system can process 200 people a day. There are well over 10,000 at the border everyday. You know what their number one excuse is now? "The app won't work". Why? Because it doesn't lol (who would really expect it to).


Sooo...

Some silly "asylum app" makes no difference whatsoever when your policy is also to let them in the country on a parole system when the border station is over capacity.

This really isn't that hard. Well, for some.

The reason we cannot get “comprehensive immigration reform is pretty simple. One political party insists that CIR must include amnesty for most of the people who have entered the country illegally. The vast vast majority of Americans oppose that. Any time someone floats the amnesty idea DC phones get swamped.

There are things that can be done. One thing is to get the Mexican President to use his military to seal his southern border. Many of these people are coming all the way thru Mexico and he can stop that flow. In addition, the thousands who are crossing illegally not at a port of entry should be stopped , loaded on a bus and taken home. All of those who enter at a port of entry and request asylum should be adjudicated promptly no matter the costs. No matter how many judges we pay it is cheaper than providing cell phones, health care and education to millions of illegals. Under no circumstances should anyone be released into our country.

The hard working American people do not deserve this burden. Many are struggling to get by and yet are being asked to support people who have come here illegally.

We are a country and countries have borders. Non Americans do not have a right to be here. Americans have a right to determine who can immigrate here.
