Does mexico have a 'dreamers' program?


Why isn't anyone asking why the mexican president isn't concerned that millions of people are leaving mexico. Is he doing anything to retain them?


So all these illegals have forsaken mexico to live in the USA, and liberals are so concerned that the sight of an American flag will cause violence and hurt feelings, as seen in many schools.


end anchor baby law!


strict follow up on visas


allow an appropriate nunber of work permits


Wake up the media and prompt them to provide details on what the mexican government does with deported felons and how they keep coming back.


Apparently the mexican government is sending us rapists, murderers and drug dealers.


And liberals want to give them citizenship. This is akin to signing up for a credit card just to get 15% off your latest purchase. You don't really need or want another card, but who can resist a freebie.

Liberals base their life on emotionalism and feeling good about saying or believing something to "help" perceived victims and rational logical decisions based on laws they care not a whit or the damage caused by ignoring laws and logic....they will hate on you for pointing out reality.

DACA by the Numbers: 15 Facts About the Youth Immigration Program Trump Could Soon Shut Down

I could go on. Read for yourself. DACA numbers have done far more to help the US than harm it.

In spite of Congress, thousands of business leaders and national think tanks, Trump has gone anti-DACA for one reason. Bannon. Alt/right/nationalist/pseudo white supremacist Bannon has threatened to strike back at Trump if he does not get rid of DACA. Trump is simply scared of what Bannon might reveal about his White House.

Are Bannon and Breitbart going to war against Trump?

There could also be a second reason Trump is anti DACA ... he hates Obama. Trumps actions generally have no rhyme or reason. He will say one thing and do something else. He lies every day. The ONE and ONLY thing Trump is consistent about is dismantling any and everything Obama touched.

Obama wanted congress to make DACA into law, and they muffed it.

Now, tRump wants them to make it a law, also.

Actually, it's the right thing to do. But congress has been shirking their responsibilities for years now.

I agree with you on this one. Difference is Obama decides to take it upon himself to rewrite laws. Liberals would go ballistic if Trump tried something similar.

It's very dangerous for Presidents to just change law they disagree with or enact new law.

I'm all for Trump dismantling Obama's dismantling of the Constitution.

With everything going on, one must wonder why Trump wants to focus on expelling daca-babies. Strange priorities.

Default What exactly is the leftist issue with the DACA decision?

- Obama repeatedly says there are laws in the books that wont allow him to bypass congress and hand out amnesty.

-Obama then uses his executive power to bypass congress and implements DACA ( lol)

- the Supreme Court blocks DACA

- Trump comes along to meet DACA legal deadline to address the issue, and instead of destroying DACA, he hands DACA to congress and gives them 6 months to come up with an actual immigration reform LAW....an actual LAW!
Not an unconstitutional executive order, but an actual LAW!

- liberals have a total meltdown.




What exactly is the problem with giving congress a chance to come up with a legal solution??
Are leftists under the assumption that president Obama had the power to create and pass laws by himself?

So whats the issue?
