Pelosi defends laws allowing migrants to seek asylum from home country

Calling America “part of a global society,” House Speaker Nancy Pelosi defended laws that allow illegal immigrants to seek asylum in the US — but added that she could back a change in policy that would have more migrants make the request from their own countries.

“Asylum laws are what they are. It’s important for people to understand what they are. We’re part of a global society, and when someone comes to a country seeking asylum, they are not breaking the law coming into the country,” she told reporters during her weekly news conference at the Capitol.

“And they have to prove their case, that they have a well-founded fear of persecution,” she continued before offering an apparent olive branch to President Trump, who has demanded that asylum and immigration laws be rewritten.

“There are some initiatives that suggest that some review of asylum seekers’ status could be done in [their] country instead of traveling here, and that’s one thing that I think would be appealing to the administration,” she said.

“That doesn’t necessarily mean you change the law. You just have to allocate resources to do it. In terms of comprehensive [reform], I think there’s real need for it,” Pelosi added, before scoffing at Trump’s oft-repeated claim that the immigration laws could be rewritten in just 14 days.

“It’s not something you can do in two weeks,” she said.

The California Democrat also said she would appeal to evangelicals to persuade Trump to order more humane policies for children and others being detained at the border.

Calling America “part of a global society,”...

Dancing perilously close to blatant treason.

And mrs p-lousy has signed up to take in and support how many ‘assylum’ seekers? Crickets.......................

We MUST elect a better Congress.

BOTH parties have been pursuing a policy of non-enforcement of laws and borders for 30 years through FOUR successive Presidents (well, three and an usurper) that now has US 30 million people down the road to being North Mexico.

Re-electing the same Bush League Republicans who have been working with Democrats to fundamentally transform this country will never Make America Great Again.

It will turn it into North Mexico just as Daddy Bush dreamed.

Everyone should Demand Asylum from their crappy neighborhoods and camp out in Nancy’s Front Yard until She grants them Residency in her Home.

Alexander, Graham, Rubio, Murkowsky and Hoeven all voted to give the Democrats a permanent majority with amnesty.

That’s not going to make America great.

"Asylum laws are what they are."

The very bad trade agreements that corrupt US officials had made with other countries “are what they are” until master deal-maker PDJT got rid of them.

"Fearful Impoverished migrants" withdraw 4-5 figure sums......empty out Western Unions
americanthinker.com ^ | 6/25/2019 | Monica Showalter / FR Posted on 6/25/2019, 5:40:20 PM by rktman

Fearful migrants have tons of tax-dollars (collected under several identities) from their extended visa-free stays here.

NOTE: Claiming "asylum" triggers hefty monthly SS checks.

The Washington Examiner reports the "fearful migrants" are cleaning out Western Unions in Texas, making bahuge withdrawals:

SAN ANTONIO, Texas — People assisting the thousands of migrants who have arrived in San Antonio after being released from federal custody say Western Unions downtown are regularly running out of cash as a result of the high number of withdrawals being made by emigrants from Central American and African nations. “Western Union has run out for the past two-and-a-half months," said Khalid Chini, a local resident and volunteer at the migrant resource center downtown. "All the surrounding area, the Western Unions, they run out of money.” Withdrawals are running in the four and five-figure sums, according to the Examiner: (Excerpt) Read more at americanthinker.com ...

========================================

Fearful migrants Western Union pile is aside from the remittances already sent back home in their violence-proned countries to which they are anxious to return.....flush with thousands in cash.

African migrants newly arrived at our southern border flash ‘rolls of $100 bills’
American Mirror ^ | June 16, 2019 | Kyle Olson / FR Posted by yesthatjallen (Video at link)

The “poor huddled masses” coming across the southern border may not be so poor after all. Swiss journalist Urs Gehriger recently visited African migrants who breached the border and hung out on the streets of San Antonio, Texas, waiting to go elsewhere in the country, and he met hostility from people who didn’t want to share details about their experiences, conflicted each other, and had rolls of $100 bills. In a recording played on Fox News, Gehriger asks a migrant from Congo how she got to America. She refused to say.

As Gehriger continued to ask simple questions, he said they backtracked and “were not answering at all.” “They wouldn’t tell me anything about how they got here, and then they started to get aggressive and they were contradicting each other,” he told Laura Ingraham. “One said they ran through the forest, and another said no, there was no forest, and they were actually arguing among themselves,” Gehriger said. He said they started to get “aggressive” after questions about money and help.

Gehriger believes the illegals were coached on giving answers to authorities. “I had the impression that somebody told them not to speak about it,” and acting like “now we’re here, you have to help us, give us money.” “What I found from an aid worker there, they actually do have money. Quite a few of them, because he spotted them under a tree, right in front of the shelter, counting a roll of money with hundred dollar bills,” Gehriger told Ingraham. Hundreds of migrants Congo and Angola were transported to San Antonio the week before, and city officials say they received no warning from the feds that they were coming. KENS published a story showing dozens of people milling around downtown, saying they arrived at the southern U.S. border by way of Ecuador. ETC...

======================================

Africans jump the border----seen holding wads of 100 dollar bills?

Its likely their Third World govt's are paying the freight b/c the govt honchos cash in bigtime from remittances of the US gravy train tax dollars.

[Reno89519]

Okay, fine. Trump should publicly ask Pelosi to send him a bill that allows asylum requests from home countries and NOT via illegal crossing at the border. That part should be doable. What to do about fake asylum claims at legal border crossings is maybe too much to ask for in same, so how about some piecemeal steps?

Also, STOP all those H1B visas!

And get on with the deportations already.

[PghBaldy]

They are not refugees seeking asylum. They are criminal invaders.

[bgill]

There’s a huge difference between political asylum and Soros or whomever busing caravans across the border to destroy the US. Pelosi knows this. She should SHUT UP and start supporting the USA.

[Dante3]

I agree. We don’t need to give asylum, except in very few cases. That is how the Boston Marathon bombers entered this country and in addition received assistance. Last I heard, the rest of the family still roams this country.

And the remaining family members, the sisters, are constantly getting arrested for shoplifting, drugs and disorderly. Why haven’t they been kicked out?

The American wife is still muzzy as far as I know. 800 sq ft apartment and she didn’t know anything about the bombs except going with them to purchase them. Yeah, whatever. It sure helps with your grandpa is CIA and Skull and Bones.

[Dante3]

Of course the widow knew what was happening. I would like to know who decided that it was a great idea to give that family asylum.
