And we stand around, wear hats and cheer.

I am not a Trumper if that is what you are implying. I believe they are already raiding employers but probably a fraction of what is going on out there. It would take a big ramp up of personel and I don't see that happening. Near where I live over in New Mexico they closed all the border patrol checkpoints that are about 50 miles from the mexico border because they are putting everyone on the border to deal with the people flooding over.


I blame both sides. Neither side wants to be the adult in the room. Its all political posturing and making the other side look bad.

LOVED this!! Although I do very much support freedom of speech, I just loved how he demolished her opinion to the point that she could not think of a thoughtful responses. (Pause, while her brain frantically searches for a comeback, then "Okay . . ." I almost laughed out loud at that.)

AOC looks like she's 9 years old from those videos she did. She's cute but brainless.

My favorite part is when she aims for the dramatic effect on her first attempt in saying seeking asylum is not a crime. The serious look... the firm tone of a cranky schoolmarm... shot down by the truth.

I've answered this a hundred times. No, you can not use a fake I.D. to remain employed. Shumer nor Pelosi is in charge of enforcing the laws. Trump is. I condemned Obama all the time when he was and I've pointed out where Hispanics were mad at him for lying to them.

Need a mirror?
"Why are we ignoring the employment laws?" Your OPINION NOT fact.

"No, you can not use a fake I.D. to remain employed" AGAIN, Your OPINION NOT fact.

" Shumer nor Pelosi is in charge of enforcing the laws." But they ARE "in charge" of PASSING laws. What laws have they passe recently to address the problems?

Need a mirror?

They need to go to a port of entry and do it legally. Most of them are not true asylum seekers, but seeking economic advancement, which is not a qualifying reason under asylum law.

Employers need to hire people legally and pay them in accordance to our laws also. If one can get away with it, I'm going to be OK with both getting away with it.

I'm not a fan of a two tiered justice system. That's what brought us the Epstein mess.
