Hey lefties. Only 200 border apprensions yesterday. How's that bipartisan border bill coming along?

    Let’s imagine if Kamala had won. What would the border look like?

    I own my vote against dissolution of our nation’s sovereignty

    • Level 2

      If Kamala had won, she'd have joined GOP Senator Lankford in passing the bipartisan Senate Border

      Security and Immigration Bill...here is Sen. Lankford's summary of the key features...i.e. fully funded and permanent solutions...
      ---------------------
      Read a summary of Senator Lankford’s border security policy proposal here.

      The bill works to stop the illegal immigration chaos now and in the future. Here are some of the details:

      NO amnesty—period
      NO free work permits handed out at the border
      NO more 10-year wait for an asylum hearing
      Builds the wall
      More ICE agents for deportations
      More Border Patrol agents for arrests
      More asylum officers for faster hearings and deportation
      More than $650 million is recapitalized for border wall construction next year
      Adds more technology at the border to interdict drugs and illegal crossings
      Increases detention beds to 50,000 to end catch and release
      Doubles the number of deportation flights
      Ends the cartel trick of trafficking children with adults so the adults can enter the country faster
      Raises the standard to prove an asylum request, so people coming to our border can no longer just say, “I have fear in my country” and get released into America for years
      Deports anyone seeking asylum with a criminal record immediately, instead of the current policy of deporting them years from now
      Deports any alien who could have resettled in another country on the way to the United States
      Deports any alien who came to America to seek “protection,” but they could have just moved to another town in their own country and been safe
      Adds more asylum officers for screening to make sure the handful of people who actually qualify for asylum are able to be considered for that process fast and the majority of people who do not qualify for asylum are deported faster
      Creates a new Title 42-like authority to shut down and deport everyone when the border is being overrun-
      Currently when there is a caravan of people, everyone is released into the country because there is not enough time to process everyone fully. This new authority would reverse that by deporting everyone when the border is overrun with too many people to process.
      Creates sanctions for the criminal cartels who traffic dangerous drugs like fentanyl and meth into our country
      Finally finishes vetting the Afghan refugees that have been in our country for two years and accelerates the processing of the Afghans that fought alongside our troops who are already in the country
      Moves our national strategy one giant step closer to zero illegal crossings a day
      --------------------

      I'm more than a bit surprised at your lack of preparation and decision making...especially for someone with a law degree.
