posted by FletchThe news outlets are reporting that Rice is making domestic policy decisions. Also reporting that Biden has talked with Obama on policy.
Then you can just be smart enough to make a general observation that Biden is an empty suit
A stretch. Besides, the MSM is supposed to be in the bag for the Dems. We've spent four years being taught not to believe any of it.
Yemeni terrorists coming over the southern border yesterday ...........MS13 today ........... pretty cool

Because an idiot's vote counts just the same as an intelligent person's. Also, the alternative is many times just as bad.

19,000 minors in one month; highest in a decade. At $7,000 a pop on average; Biden just increased the cartel revenues by $133,000,000.
Change we can believe in ....

You are the most consistent right wing radio/Fox talking points echo chamber I've ever seen. Once these sources start stressing a topic, you can almost count down from 48 hours until you start posting it here. Yemini terrorists, Biden renting expensive hotel rooms, funneling money to drug cartels, rapists and gang bangers pouring in, etc. Look into some of this stuff before you regurgitate it like a mindless drone.
I get that you don't want the "mexicans" in here. Even though it was okay for your ancestors to arrive on our shores unannounced, it's not cool for Latinos to have that same opportunity. They've got to do it "legally". Fortunately for you, your relatives didn't have that same requirement. Fine. Just accept that these people make you uneasy and are an easy target for frustrations of you and like minded people.

Too compare immigration of people 500 years ago to an undeveloped, uncivilized place to a formed law abiding country that has laws, social nets , taxes and legal immigration laws is plain stupid.

It’s equally as dumb to compare people who want to come here and work 2-3 jobs to MS-13 and Yemeni terrorists.

THey are all breaking the laws of this country equally. We have a legal immigration system. If they want asylum from persecution there are laws that allow them to do that.
None of it involves showing up at a border crossing and expecting 3 hots and a cot.

Our legal system fucking sucks. It can take years, years to even get a hearing, and even then the odds of getting in are slim and none. Oh, an the previous administration cut the number of judges and the number of people that would be accepted into the country. You have heard the stories of Iraqi and Afghan translators that fought for our guys, and yet they have extreme difficulties coming in.
What is needed is a complete overhaul of the immigration system. But, no one in Congress really wants to tackle it because it is complicated.

Stellar point.
Therefore it will get ignored mostly, but nice one!

500 years? How about 100 years ago long after the country had been established. Back then it was "criminal Irish" and "Mediterranean-looking Eyetalians who were "showing up"here as the rapists and robbers from their home countries.

You know what your ancestors had to do to immigrate legally? They simply had to show up. That's it. Sound familiar. Had they been required to go through a court process that could cost the equivalent of half a year's wage and require a sponsor, many of us wouldn't be here.

Social welfare programs that are paid by taxation does not allow for this to happen fairly any more. Illegal immigrants are a drain on the system now unlike before.
100 years ago you had to come and actually succeed to survive. you had to assimilate to America by learning the language and follow the laws of this country.

They didn't just show up. It took many of them years to prove that they had a sponsor in the United States and had employment. Then they had to go through inspection at Ellis Island. Only a small percentage from each country were allowed in yearly.

Patently false.
