Yes,and if they don’t “get it” they will never get my vote again.

looking to find permanent solutions

Only a fool thinks this would be a permanent solution. The Marxists would consider it just a start.

I agree.

Kelly's policies are not what I voted for. This is unacceptable

We must put pressure on Kelly, do something, look into Kelly's background and his family. He is not looking out for the USA.

Why not let everyone out of prison, as well? Seems unfair to pick and choose which crime gets you punished and which gets you rewarded.

This is really simple....

Anybody who was currently brought here illegally as a minor should be given a chance at citizenship as long as they are drug free and no criminal activity.

Give them 12 months to apply with the condition no federal bennies will be allowed. If you don’t apply in 12 months you are deported. No ifs ands or buts...must learn English and pass a general knowledge test.

The ones that really want to live here will apply and be self sufficient, there is no downside to that.

That takes a liberal point off the table and cleans up at least part of the immigration issue.

The Trump administration last week floated an amnesty idea for potentially 1 million illegal immigrants, looking to find permanent solutions for some of the most sympathetic cases in the long-running immigration debate.”

#Losing.

“In two days of testimony to Congress, Homeland Security Secretary John F. Kelly said he doubts his ability to oust some 250,000 immigrants from Central American countries who have been in the U.S. for nearly two decades on a temporary humanitarian relief program.”

Then resign and let Joe Arpaio or Tom Tancredo or Chris Kobach take over.

Anyone who knew Kelly’s background with the Florida bimbo he allowed to have free reign on the base would NEVER hire him to be in the Cabinet. Kelly is a totally unqualified dirtbag. The person who should have been running DHS is Kris Kobach who actually believes in enforcing immogration law.

This isnt the first time Kelly has said to legalize illegals. He keeps begging congress to do it. Who the hell authorized him to speak to congress about what policy should be?

"...a future secretary might take a stricter line on Dreamers and fully cancel President Obama’s 2012 amnesty,,,,"

So it's Kelly calling the shots?

What makes you think Kelly isn’t speaking for Trump and Jivanka?

“Pres. Eisenhauer deported 3.5 MILLION”

Ike was a piker. Clinton tossed out 12+ Million.

Amnesty for Dreamers....

Pretty much the complete opposite of why a lot of people voted for Trump and enabled Kelly to assume the Secretary of DHS, position.

WOW!!!!!!!

He could be. But he is taking a big chance publicly recommending a policy the opposite of a trump campaign promise.

Never happen.

But, also, there needs to be some clarification as to who the “Dreamers” are. Is it some 13yr old, that showed up here within the last 8yrs, under obama, with no background information, thrown into a home and is not in, MS13 bootcamp?

Or, is it some kid that is finishing high school and plans on joining the Army or Marine Corps, to serve this country?

I see a lot of activists that want to bring up, adults that have careers and families and are doing it right, as “Dreamers”, who are afraid to get sent back. Sorry, but if you’ve made it this far, are a productive member of society and are doing the right thing, then I don’t know anyone that wants to put you in the same category as the MS13 recruit.

However, Birthright citizenship and benefits, stop. No IF’s, ANDs, BUTs...about it.

Dreamers have reaped hundreds of thousands of benefits from US taxpayers that didn’t belong to them. But the least we can do is send them home so they can apply what they have learned in bettering their own countries.

There is no reason not to enforce immigration law with everyone.

I posted the link to this story over at The Conservative Treehouse. Then the fascists banned me! Talk about putting your head in the sand.
