Never thought I would feel this way, maybe it's time we start chipping illegals before sending them back. No amnesty and no free pass. Illegals need to be held accountable. I definitely think we should seize their assets to help offset the cost of deportation. That in itself will trigger some self deportations.

Chipping away at them? Yeah, that could be underway. I agree with seizing assets since they were gained by the criminal act of entering the US without authorization. Cost of transportation? How about the $113 billion they cost taxpayers a year? Maybe we could send THEIR government a bill for their care. As we know, the Mexican government puts out a brochure to facilitate their illegal journey to the US.

American companies like meat packing industry puts signs up in Mexico about jobs in America they don't say how to get to America or the company will get a work visa for them. They just advertise that there are jobs for them just get there somehow.

“The left will say it doesn’t go far enough toward open borders and then the other end of the spectrum, which is: ‘We won’t be satisfied until you collect everyone and send them home,’ which is just not practical nor, do I believe, in the best interests of the U.S.,” Tillis told the Journal.


He was on TV this morning saying that he is confident it will get 60 votes and that the President will sign it.


Here is his website: https://www.tillis.senate.gov/public...6-0DAD0FE9E515
No.


Build the wall.

Deport them ALL.

Sadly, however, we've had several stealth amnesties since then
