House Republican says he won't accept a border deal because it may help Biden politically
It's not the first time Rep. Troy Nehls has seemed to say the quiet part of loud: In December he suggested impeachment was about giving "ammo" to Trump.
Yea, this just illustrates my theme that republicans today (or maga or whatever) are the most passive aggressive do nothing group in government today. What do they care about? The deficit and stopping immigrants. What do they do about either issue? Nothing. They spend more time going after Hunter than they do combatting immigration.House Republican says he won't accept a border deal because it may help Biden politically

Why does immigration need to be combated?
You need to ask your tribe that question, son.
The biggest difference is the former came legally and the latter are coming illegally and in stealth. The next biggest difference is that the former came mostly at their own expense and the latter are coming at huge profits to the cartels.

People seeking asylum are here legally. I seriously doubt the uproar about immigrants flooding into the USA by magas would be as loud if they were Canadians or Irish. After all, according to their wannabe fuhrer, these huddled masses are poisoning our blood.The biggest difference is the former came legally and the latter are coming illegally and in stealth.

Cartels make $32 million a week off migrants in one stretch of Texas border
The smuggling cartels are making $32 million a week for bringing illegal immigrants into just one 245-mile stretch of the border, according to congressional Republicans who are on a tour of the southern boundary Wednesday.
You're just one big walking contradiction aren't you? According to you everybody knows there is a migrant problem and yet they are coming in stealthily. The "good" migrants come in mostly at their own expense (FYI, the "mostly" is doing a fuckload of heavy lifting there, just ask your Dear Leader's current in laws) yet somehow the cartels are making bank off the situation right wingers have created. Explain to me, genius, who is paying the cartels to smuggle these (most likely) refugees across the border (or boarder if you prefer)? Just in case I have to spell it out for you, the current
Oh that's right, I forgot. You think all brown people who come here are rapists, drug dealers, and terrorists.The biggest difference is the former came legally and the latter are coming illegally and in stealth.

I know it's nothing new. My great-grandparents were mostly immigrants, one from Ireland, one from Poland and one from Germany. The Irish were hated when they came to Boston, along with Black folks. I'm not sure how badly the Polish were treated, but I grew up in a neighborhood of mostly Polish and Italian immigrants and I don't remember there being hate directed against them during my childhood. In fact, in my Italian dominated high school, the Italian boys used to say, "There are two kinds of people in the world, Italians, and those who wish they were Italian." It was taken in a light hearted way. I also have some British in my background and after reading the book, "Poor White Trash", which was about how the British elite forced poor lower-class Brits to come to the US, I think some of my father's ancestors were probably poor white trash, a term that started in the 1600s by the British and lives on today.
That distinction is just the government’s choice.
Not to sound too glib, but that's probably because back in the 70s blacks were still the no 1 group to rail on. Didn't Asa Carter move to Texas around that time? I'm not saying he was indicative of all Texans but it makes sense the type of people who listen to and believe in Tucker Carlson these days would have been suuuper resentful of the Civil Rights movement back then.
Here in AZ, we had the infamous "papers please" SB 1070 that made national news, but what got lost in the shuffle was the fact that the law (and a previous one past a few years earlier) had employer sanctions baked into the cake as well.
Prolly the illegal employers argued, successfully, that they'd been severely punished by having to hire a whole new batch of undocumented workers. Can you imagine how much trouble that is when you have just been raided by the INS?
I don't think that at all.Oh that's right, I forgot.

Honestly, you have trouble understanding what an organization whose thing is illegal border crossings for money would have to do with trafficking in illegal immigrants?
More like "well, we and our friends at the Chamber of Commerce have been going over our budget for political contributions to the sheriff's race next year, and some of the members are...less than enthusiastic about your candidacy since you put them in jail for doing what we all agreed was a solid business practice. Enjoy your retirement, sheriff."
You are coming legally, you pay airfare and paperwork costs (we had a simple wedding--and ended up paying more in fees for her green card than we spent on the wedding--and a similar amount in travel costs. And if you count the time they took away her work permit add another zero in indirect costs.) You come illegally, you pay a coyote. Doesn't mean they're doing the cartel's bidding.The biggest difference is the former came legally and the latter are coming illegally and in stealth.
