I think his point is, Eric, that the Dems intentionally write language into laws that specifically includes these benefits for illegals. Hence the issue. Not only are they not fixing it. They are actively encouraging it.

Your post sounds overly simplistic when the Dems are doing the exact opposite on purpose.

---

You are correct. We certainly know that the Democrats don't actually want to solve the problem.

I wouldn't assume E76 would have voted for Biden. There's a broad gulf between disliking Trump and supporting the lunatic progressive left.

Wouldn't most on this board support a shutdown while they work on the infrastructure on the border to run it responsibly?

I'm going to guess your version of "run responsibly" is "catch and release" heck it's probably not even "catch"

But go ahead, tell us what "run responsibly" means to you

In every scenario, no, not at all.

The way I personally would run the border wouldn't be like the Dems or Republicans. But still you would hate it.

I'm guessing that's because unless someone is dumb enough to confess to being a cartel member you'd automatically let them in and give them citizenship on the spot

I don't know about Rhonda, but how about giving them a math test that they have to pass.

If they can either prove or disprove that P=NP, let them in.

That's a big lie.

No.

-no border wall
-spend the same amount from the wall on technology such as sensors and drones; also on more border patrol agents
-anyone who doesn't come through a checkpoint gets sent back. If they want to be taken to a checkpoint we would provide that transportation
-beef up all checkpoints with temporary housing, manpower, lawyers, background checks
-if someone comes to a checkpoint give them a yes or no within two weeks of applying
-families all stay together
-asylum seeking isn't a crime

That's the basics.

If you voted for Biden it is not a lie.

In 1982, I voted for a Democrat who I personally knew for the Texas House of Representatives. That was the last time, and quite possibly the only time, that I ever voted for a Democrat in any state or national election.

About the only other exception that there may be was when Texas A&M Economics prof Phil Gramm ran for the House in 1978. I don't remember if I voted for the Republican candidate or for Phil Gramm who was a Democrat then.

I have also never voted in any Democratic Primary, even in 1976 when Texas was overwhelmingly Democrat.

So any claim that I voted for Biden is a big fat lie. I wish people would stop using such lies for ad hominem attacks and thread derails.

No I think he let Fauci close "On the Border"

As I've said many, many times, if they really want to fix it, the first step should be to deny any and all benefits to illegal aliens.

No medical coverage unless paid for in cash. No unemployment. No free schools. No driver's license. No food stamps. No welfare. No tax credits.

Do this, and most of the issues would quickly become moot.

---

No voting for 15 years either. And just make that blanket. So you don't have to determine how illegally came. Just no vote for 15 years after entering the country. That will give them time to see the toxic effect of Democrat policies outside of press and school brainwashing. If they still want to vote Democrat after 15 years, fine. You know they were not manipulated.

Biden figured out that it was a "crises" that has seen more illegals in 20 years "invade" the country.

He is an idiot and the Republicans are finally slamming him.

---

Aphis Ag,

What is your OP referring to though -- your title confuses and your post implies it too --- did Biden change instructions about the border?

Guest worker program. No path to citizenship.
$5,000 application fee for asylum. Payable in cash. (Fee waved if you stay in your own country)

You would have to remove birthright citizenship or they will just drop anchor babies.

The wall works. As someone who lives and works directly on the border I can tell you it works. Post whatever stats you want, If someone crosses, send them back. No Ifs ands or buts. Come in legally and stop mooching of our already corrupt system.

I went to high school in Mission/ McAllen and have many friends that still live down there including a few that own large amounts of farmland on the river. The three people I know who own land on the river do not like it, are upset with it going through their land and think spending money on technology and manpower is the better idea. All of them and their families are republicans.
