Full Title: Trump plan would force asylum seekers to wait in Mexico as cases are processed, a major break with current policy.

Central Americans who arrive at U.S. border crossings seeking asylum in the United States will have to wait in Mexico while their claims are processed under sweeping new measures the Trump administration is preparing to implement, according to internal planning documents and three Department of Homeland Security officials familiar with the initiative.

Funny how it takes 3 people to write a WaPo article. Must be a lot of short bus riders over there.

This sounds like good news and a kick in the teeth to those who are trying to game our system or trying to subvert it with bad Judges.

Nobody is forcing them to wait in Mexico, heck the broke into Mexico without permission.

they can turn around and go home.
public pressure got the following result in Australia:

21 Nov: SBS Australia: (Australian Prime Minister Scott) Morrison follows Trump rejecting UN migration deal
Australia won’t be signing a UN-sponsored document on safe and orderly migration because Scott Morrison says it would compromise the country’s borders...

Scott Morrison will follow in Donald Trump’s footsteps by refusing to sign a global covenant on migration...
“It doesn’t distinguish between those who illegally enter Australia and those who come the right way,” he told 2GB radio on Wednesday.
“I would never allow something to compromise our borders, I worked too hard to ensure that we weren’t in that position.”...

But Mr Morrison said a key sticking point was the failure of the document to differentiate between illegal and “proper” migration when it comes to providing welfare benefits.
The US, Israel, Austria, the Czech Republic, Poland, Croatia, Hungary and Bulgaria have refused to sign the agreement...

Not to worry, Amigos, you have many leftist American federal judges running interference for you by blocking the President’s policy changes.

Isn’t the right way to ask permission, based on asylum, from the US Embassy in their own country?

Or these criminal illegal invaders (of Mexico) could, y’know, GO HOME.

Which Bush or Obama Judge is going to try to put the kabosh on this great plan? I know a challenge will be coming.

Even still, I think it’s going to take some actual shots being fired from our Border Patrol to make the caravans take Trump seriously. Most presidents are too afraid of what the NYT or Washington Post would say about live ammunition.

I’m hearing the invaders are still planning to storm the gates at various points, the way they did at the Mexico-Honduras border. Total disregard for the laws.

Seeing as they are no longer in the country where they are allegedly persecuted for their race, religion, nationality, political opinion, or particular social group, what is the problem with waiting in Mexico? They have successfully escaped their “persecution”.

They are supposed to apply for asylum in the first safe country they reach.

Seems like a good plan. The Mexicans cannot stand them. We would not stand for them even more. The Mexicans did not stop them, let the Mexicans deal with them. And deport any Mexicans to Venezuela (the leftist Riviera).

They better THINK HARD before doing so. Unlike the decked-out cops in Penn Station (in NYC), our soldiers on the border are ARMED and will use their hardware as necessary to prevent an invasion.

It’s probably no coincidence that Trump recently mentioned obama judges. He was anticipating one would step up and block him again. It’s like obama is still president, overruling Trump through his judges.
