Beware the Lindsey Graham amnesty betrayal
Conservative Review ^ | Jan 10 2019 | Daniel Horowitz ยท

Posted on 01/10/2019 5:21:47 PM PST by rintintin

Only in politics can the very people who created a problem then be tasked with solving the problem. And they try to solve it with more of what caused it in the first place.

DACA and similar amnesty magnets created the new wave of Central American migration since 2013. That wave single-handedly empowered the drug cartels, fueled the drug and gang crisis, and brought unimaginable fiscal and security liabilities in our communities, not to mention a humanitarian crisis for the migrants themselves. Now, Jared Kushner is working with Lindsey Graham to promote a deal of some border wall funding in exchange for codifying and expanding that very amnesty. The problem is that amnesty is the main reason why we need a border wall at all. More of it will make a wall useless.

Not just amnesty, bet he’s itching to start another needless war or two. That’s what keeps him going.

No consideration for ONE SINGLE AMNESTY until the wall has been built, PERIOD!!!

Building the wall is the initial condition for even considering starting any sort of negotiation on amnesty.

RINOs are soo damned stupid they could be holding a Royal Flush and the player next to them tell them they are a racist if they don’t immediately fold AND THEY FOLD!!!!

Lindsey’s supposed reincarnation as real conservative proved to be stillborn.

Rino’s are not stupid. They are looking out for their donors interests, not the interests of regular Americans, who don’t fork up the big bucks.
The Democrats don’t want to build the wall, they would rather have a shutdown. Nancy will commit to only $1.00 for the wall, she is an open borders advocate. American citizens are unimportant to the haughty Speaker of the House and her accomplice Chuck Schumer.
Now Sen. Lindsey Graham, known affectionately as Miss Lindsey, wants President Trump to use his Executive power to build a wall. I suspect the politicians do not want a recorded vote. That would give away the game.

Re: “No consideration for ONE SINGLE AMNESTY until the wall has been built, PERIOD!!!”

At least half the people who will get Amnesty came here legally. They just over stay their visas.

I don't understand who most of the people at the border are.

Almost all the women and children could have gotten a tourist visa and a bus ticket to San Diego for a couple hundred dollars.

Instead, they walk or hitch hike through Mexico, and then try to sneak across the border. What the heck is that all about?

As to the men - and most of them are men - if they have previously entered or left the USA without official documents (usually a misdemeanor), they are committing a felony if they try to re-enter the USA.

So, maybe the only option for the men is to sneak back into the USA?

But if that is the case, that means that thousands of foreign born felons get Catch and Release (with a court date) every month after getting caught at the border.

I could live with a path to citizenship for a limited population after the border is secure, the lottery is done, chain migration is done, anchor status is severely limited or abolished (keep hearing that one would be tough), and e-verify is the enforced law of the land.

You cannot solve the illegal immigration problem while your laws (especially the new path to citizenship) are set up to encourage more. Otherwise, we will be talking about what to do with 40M illegals 20 years from now.
