OK that's enough facts for today! If you've seen all the facts and you still think the U.S. is being swamped by unprecedented waves of migrants...I just don't know what I can do for you. It may be time for you to move to Moldova, or pivot to video, or something. Bye. (end)

Oh, someone asked me to add more facts, about immigrants' impact on the budget. Here are the baseline estimates from the National Academy of Sciences (https://www.nap.edu/catalog/23550/the-economic-and-fiscal-consequences-of-immigration …).pic.twitter.com/XPpSWtwg7r

And someone else asked to see the recent immigration breakdown by education status. As you can see, low-skilled immigration has collapsed (due to the collapse and reversal of illegal immigration).pic.twitter.com/DYZWskRgsU

In fact, Gordon Hanson, Chen Liu, and Craig McIntosh have a whole paper about the collapse of low-skilled immigration in recent years: https://gps.ucsd.edu/_files/faculty/hanson/hanson_publication_immigration_risefall.pdf …

So, what you’re saying is that implementing incr enforcement along w/ improved economies on both sides of the border are working together to decr the # of illegal entries & since that’s true we don’t need to worry ab improving outdated & harmful policies anymore?
-
I think what he's saying is that it's factually incorrect to suggest we're facing record numbers of migrants. But that's what the SoS is stating.
-
The SoS undoubtedly said a lot of things. Quibbling over a poor choice of words to call him and the President a liar is a lame way to argue. Only since it’s not a debate with Pompeo and he doesn’t have the time to clarify the quibble point, it moves over to propaganda territory.
-
Pompeo is saying there's a crisis driven by high numbers of migrants when the data show literally the opposite is happening. "Here's some data that shows what you're saying is not true." That's not propaganda. And it's not quibbling.
-
Mexico has its own immigration crisis and many of the same problems as the US. They can’t afford to let this go either. Pulling a couple words out from that whole context and quibbling over the numbers is a misleading narrative.
-
What is the crisis again? I think there's a misleading narrative. But I think you're wrong about who's spinning it.

Feel free to go back to reading the cereal box while watching the morning cartoons. Quit gaslighting us, Pollyanna.

Oh you're a bot! Had me going there for a minute.
