LEGAL immigration can be a net positive for the country. We NEED new blood, otherwise the country will slowly die off due (at least in part) to the lowering birth numbers...HOWEVER, ILLEGAL immigration tends to be a net negative for the country. Companies and farmers who depend on the cheap labor depend on them...the rest of us end up supporting them and their families. (and, FWIW, I've been a registered DEMOCRAT since 1972...and have NEVER voted for any (R) candidate.)
So why did you get upset when fski proposed a reasonable solution for both reducing illegal immigration and increasing legal immigration?

This is America's problem thanks to Biden encouraging illegal immigration through lax enforcement and worldwide recognition the administration doesnt give a damn about it either. The only thing that busing helps is to spread the misery around to places where the problem is easy to ignore.

Thankfully this administration will end in two years and the reckless policy of "catch and release" will again be sent to the dustbin of history.

Border enforcement is up like 500% since Biden took office.
One of the reasons you're always telling lies, Felix, is to use partisanship to hide from yourself the failures of your own ideology.
Republicans are the reason for illegal immigration. Red state agricultural businesses need cheap labor and bus in migrant workers to fill that need, some legally, some not. This is how the illegals get across the border.
This is why the Republican party makes a big noise about immigration but then never actually does anything about it. Because the GOP donor class profits from illegal labor and human trafficking.
Hopefully someday you'll wake up to how badly you've been conned.

I mean it kind of sounds like Blue cities with labor shortages should make some lemonaid here and have a fast track work permit situation for these folks.

Nothing keeps the American dream going like a bunch of immigrants with no rights/understanding of their rights at the bottom of the labor pool working minimum wage and paying payroll taxes.

Absolutely, we want immigrants.

But dumping them on the street in the street with no warning when it is freezing cold? Without consent? That is asking for death/injuries to exposure. It is sadistic cruelty, and reflects the hatred republicans embrace.

Immigrants are still human beings, despite the republicans refusal to recognize that.

the pro lifers are only pro life if you fit their white Christian mold. If that’s not you, you’re disposable and even a target to cruelty

For a nice walk down recent memory lane, this is what happens when a party that’s all talk, alt-facts & feels driven, with no plan to govern takes the reigns

Isn’t that always the republican playbook, break it and then claim it doesn’t work?

~Yes. Not only does the US have an international legal obligation to do so, based on the requirement of complying with the object and purpose of the 1951 Refugee Convention, and implementing legal obligations in good faith, it has an obligation to do so under its own domestic law.

US and not obeying international AND national laws, name a better pair.....

You would think that "Christians" who whine about how their holiday is disrespected, whose myth is centered on there being no room at the inn for travelers far from home, could at least on that one night behave as the good book dictates. How many "Christians" read the Christmas Story on Xmas eve, and then nodded in agreement when hearing about this story? How blatant do these guys have to be before "Christians" wake up to the fact they’re really following the Serpent.

So .... Buses of migrants were dropped off in front of the VP residence in D.C. in 18 degree weather on Xmas eve. It turns out they were met by compassionate and loving people who got them warm clothes, food and shelter. No POS Republican governor has taken credit for this one yet. Probably far too busy celebrating the joy and peace of Christmas Eve with family while sleeping warmly on $1000 bed sheets in a $4 million house. Cackling at their brilliant planning of this political stunt whose aim is hurting and using these valuable political tokens to "own the libs". Republican Jesus would be proud.

Excuse me but how many Republican Governors have jailed CEOs or business owners for hiring the undocumented? I’ll be waiting for your answer since you seem to think immigration is a Democrat only problem??

How about your party never wants to agree to any immigration policy being the real problem.

Something about the real reason Sodom and Gamora were destroyed. It wasn't about sex.
