    The caravan that’s on TV every hour has 4,000-5,000 people? 300,000 were apprehended trying to cross the SW border illegally last year. That’s about 5800 per week. 52 caravan’s worth were apprehended last year. Probably at least that many crossed without getting caught. 🤔pic.twitter.com/6bk7zbE87r

        Will you introduce legislation to take away the jobs/cheap labor magnet? Mandate nationwide E-Verify?

        A national ID, and force employers to be ICE... while never actually resolving to enforce immigration law? No thanks, just more power for the government.

        So we'll solve the problem by doing more House rules changes? I get it, but it's way too ideological. How else do we take away the cheap labor magnet? Businesses just need to enter their social security number on a website. They don't have to deport them, just don't hire them.

        They already provide a SS# for the i-9.

        People are using fake IDs. Add in E-Verify for good measure and fine employers 10k per employee who are caught hiring people illegally. Take away the jobs magnet and people won't come here illegally.

        How’s does e-verify stop them from using fake ID’s?

        Do you at least recognize that the need for cheap labor is what is driving these caravans?

        demand for labor is one aspect. So is the desire for free healthcare, welfare, school. Back to the last question, what kind of ID would you propose that can’t be faked and that EVERY American must possess? What type of biometric ID would you eagerly submit to? Do we outlaw cash?

        So you’re saying this is a stupid fake crisis and Congress will be holding hearings about the troops being used as a political stunt?

        I’m saying the media just finally decided to fixate on one sliver of the issue, and it’s much bigger than a caravan.

        Why is it weird for our own troops to be at our border? I know you’re used to our Troops being deployed overseas in illegal wars but really defending our own borders is the most rational action I’ve seen from the military in a very long time. Ever I guess.

        Your state is home to a white supremacist that just murdered two people, the nazi that dressed his kid up as Hitler for Halloween, and the gun show selling swastika ornaments. I'd feel safer having these women and children in the caravan living next to me than a Kentuckian.

        When you refuse to consider asylum and continue to call them criminals you are exacerbating the problem Mr. Massie.

        Why in the world would 300,000 latinos even think about coming to a country run by a fascist, white supremacist, racist, bigoted, Islamophobic, lying, cheeto haired sexist and rapist who is ruining the world? They'd only come if they thought he was a decent leader.
