    The real crisis at the US-Mexico border is that @CBP is violating its legal obligations and turning away legitimate asylum seekers.https://www.aclu.org/blog/immigrants-rights/trump-administration-illegally-turning-away-asylum-seekers …

        The USA is going down the tubes accepting all these immigrants and asylum seekers who have no resources to sustain themselves. Definitely time to strengthen laws and eliminate birthright citizenship to protect the culture we have.

        Going down the tubes how? I thought we had the best economy ever and the lowest unemployment ever and that we have so much money we can afford huge tax cuts for the wealthy and that America was great again? Just not white enough?

        Dont believe the smoke and mirrors rhetoric. Lower and middle classes are making less and less. The country is broke. We cannot sustain more immigration of uneducated, destitute hoards. It will just send the ship down faster. Wake up!

        Illegal immigration is down, my friend. There is no crisis here. Asylum seekers are not hordes. Nor are they hoarding anything. Not are they all uneducated. If you’re worried about lower and middle classes vote out the people hooking up the 1%.

        Read these stats then tell me there is no immigration crisis. " 629,000 people on visas who were expected to leave in fiscal year 2016 hadn’t done so by the end of that fiscal year". Lets deal with reality.https://www.factcheck.org/2018/06/illegal-immigration-statistics/ …

        They rejected the offer from Mexico. They have you fooled or you are a part of the invasion. I guessing you are a part of the invasion.

        I guess you're a rightwing puppet, repeating bullshit. The immigrants are not required to accept asylum in any country where they will not be safe, including Mexico.

        So I will assume you are a left wing nut spewing shit. That is the problem. We should be able to engage in discussion about this. You do not know anything about me. Please quit adding to the hate and intolerance. Peace

        Asylum has very narrow requirements and if requesters don’t meet the standard, they shouldn’t be considered for asylum.

        There is no legal obligation to accept any asylum seeker. We are obliged to hear their case, and that is it. We are not obligated to let them into the country.

        We’ve seen how many CBP agents are violent and sexual criminals, it’s disgusting. And now they’re committing more crimes.

        where's your proof, ACLU? You have none. You just say things, and hope suckers send you money. The "crisis at the border" is due to Democrats obstructing Prez Trump, which increases the problem

        Mexico offered them asylum, they didn't take them up on it. Beggars don't get to be choosers.
