Oh Cool!
Thanks.

AP News: US agents fire tear gas as some migrants try to breach fence
https://www.apnews.com/72efa4f1822241c2817a2fb6aa191fb4

Mexico’s Interior Ministry said around 500 migrants tried to “violently” enter the U.S.


The ministry said in a statement it would immediately deport those people and would reinforce security.

Today, 500 "peaceful" people >We are great workers and no criminals< tried to invade.

 

[SheepDog4Life]

Ay carumba!

Politifact: Sarah Huckabee Sanders says Obama's Border Patrol used tear gas once a month. Is that true?

Mostly true (which is as good as Politifact will ever rate something an R says, and then only grudgingly, lol)

If Pelosi can say Trump’s Wall emphasis is a manhood thing, can he say that her desire for open borders is a vagina thing?

 

[OakRiver]

That seems the default position whenever the Left disagrees with someone. Does that explain why Nancy is trying to grab his wall?

That’s not a fair comparison. You need no border security when no one’s trying to get in.

Hmm.
Don't interfere in Honduras politics.
But remove the President.
Hmmm.

"So they can start a small business".
That sounds like someone coached them.

Or, perhaps they were being honest... broke with the narrative that they are all refugees escaping death.

Follow the [STRIKE]money[/STRIKE] greed.

Exactly. If they are refugees looking for asylum as they claim then returning home even with 50k wouldn’t make them any less vulnerable.

They were sold a bill of goods by the organizers responsible for the caravan’s departure from their home countries that promised them a pay off at the end of their journey and now they are trying to collect on those false promises at the expense of American citizens.

Or, perhaps they were being honest... broke with the narrative that they are all refugees escaping death.

In which case, they would be eligible for asylum in Mexico. Not to shop around for the best deal.

Now, they are turning to extortion for their needs.

It is always a temptation to an armed and agile nation
To call upon a neighbour and to say: --
"We invaded you last night--we are quite prepared to fight,
Unless you pay us cash to go away."


And that is called asking for Dane-geld,
And the people who ask it explain
That you've only to pay 'em the Dane-geld
And then you'll get rid of the Dane!


It is always a temptation for a rich and lazy nation,
To puff and look important and to say: --
"Though we know we should defeat you, we have not the time to meet you.
We will therefore pay you cash to go away."


And that is called paying the Dane-geld;
But we've proved it again and again,
That if once you have paid him the Dane-geld
You never get rid of the Dane.


It is wrong to put temptation in the path of any nation,
For fear they should succumb and go astray;
So when you are requested to pay up or be molested,
You will find it better policy to say: --


"We never pay any-one Dane-geld,
No matter how trifling the cost;
For the end of that game is oppression and shame,
And the nation that pays it is lost!"

Of course. If the US interferes and deposes the Honduran President then they are now responsible and have a moral obligation to take in as many refugees as they demand.

If the Honduran people wish to be free of their current President I celebrate their right to self determination and use of the democratic process to do so. As far as getting involved in yet more nation building for an ungrateful population...

Get to pounding.

That looks like some good sand. I could use some of that in the spring for a project.

So the US starts to better enforce its border, reduces the flow of illegal immigrants through Mexico, and now that the illegal immigrants are now having to stay in Mexico the government there decides to start enforcing border control themselves.

 

[SheepDog4Life]

President cracking down on illegal immigration along the southern border... of Mexico.

"Mexico announces crackdown on illegal immigration: 'Get in line and you can enter our country'"

Making illegals in Mexico remain Mexico's problem, means Mexico will now attempt solutions.

Which, to be clear, means those with legitimate asylum claims file them to gain entry, those without legitimate claims are barred entry. The numbers of "fake" claims will decrease and the speed of processing those with real threats will increase. Only "losers" will be those with "fake" claims just looking for entry in order to "disappear" in this country.
