2) IL governor (and others) blaming Texas and with a straight face now that they have an issue.

3) The federal plan is, here you go...see ya in 5 years (maybe) go wander about the country.

4) Every country has citizenship and yes that comes with the right to be in that country. Not really sure what you have in mind there.
Most southern states created an exclusion for Real ID for their farm labor. I would think if they were "overwhelmed" they would subject every worker to Real ID, dontcha think?

Ironic that you complain about illegal when the GOP front runner and ex President is facing 92 criminal charges and has personally pardoned dozen of his lackeys for felonies. Dems have their problems and are corrupt, but at least when their leaders are blatantly and unapologetically corrupt they get sent to prison, see Blago, whom Trump granted clemency.

Classic repub response. Sticking to your isolated 10 acre plot of land away from humans because you're soooo scared.
So privileged.


And to repeat myself. I said that we the federal government must do something and nip it at the butt.

That doesn't mean that the people who are here should be harassed(As they are) and be left on the street. Especially children.

LOL classic demo response. Enjoy your babysitting. You asked for it and you'll get it......plenty of it. At some point you will get tired of it. Just hasn't happened "yet" with your liberal attitudes.

And yet dozens of Trumpies are posting on our forums yet very few of us are posting on your forums. Proof is in the pudding. Enjoy your mega churches and monster truck shows.
