Biden to set up migrant processing centers in Guatemala and Colombia to try and stop an influx of migrants and authorizes Army Reserves to head to the border - with Title 42 ending in just 14 DAYS
2023-04-28
[Daily Mail, where America gets its news] "Migrant processing" or illicit narcotics distribution hubs ?
  • Biden is opening migrant processing centers in Guatemala and Colombia to have asylum claims processed while migrants wait in Latin America

  • Comes in conjunction to an executive order directing activation of the Army Reserves to help at the southern border

  • Moves seem to be in response to pandemic-era Title 42 expiring on May 11

#15  I doubt Joe came up with this.
The 80-year-old commander-in-chief had difficulty remembering his recent state visit to Ireland Thursday while being grilled by kids during a Take Your Child to Work event at the White House.
"The last country I’ve traveled, I’m trying to think of the last one I was in," Biden mused to the children of administration staffers and members of the media.
"I’ve been to, met with 89 heads of state so far. So, uh, trying to think where was the last place I was; it’s hard to keep track."
"Ireland," a child shouted out, jogging the president’s memory.
"Yeah, you’re right, Ireland. That’s where it was," he said good-naturedly.
"How’d you know that?"

#14  Ditto to everything said already. And (obviously) it’s not just “Joe” - it’s more/less the formal or de facto policy - with one brief interruption - for nearly 40 years.

Real household income for the lower half of the income distribution will not increase again for many years - as it did, for the first time in decades, under a recent administration. Sickening.

#12  I will accept a soylent green processing center that processes the migrants into soylent to feed to California nuts and berries crowd.

#11  Does a processing center stop an influx?

Or does a processing center facilitate the influx by better managing the influx?

I accept the latter.

#10  While the ebb and flow of lunacy behavior and decisions captures most Americans who actually pay attention to what passes for government in Washington, the Puppet Show will have let in somewhere north of 8 million illegals by the end of 2024. The impact on every aspect of our society of that many on the public purse is catastrophic. The video imagery suggests the majority of them are military age males, mostly poorly educated and unskilled for first world employment. Imagine what they represent as a political/militant force once "community organized" by the Marxists in Washington.

#9  Forgot to mention, those camps are already there and HAVE been there. My understanding is that Rep Owens accompanied Bill Roggio a few months back and observed the camps as well as Mayorkas on site.

#8  Will undoubted require frequent on-site coordination visits faux the usual customs and baggage checks. I recommend Hunter take the point on this one.

#7  Officially campaign season.

#6  /\ My guess as well Rex.

#5  Those camps are not there to stem the flow but to streamline it. We're sending the UN our tax $ and then the UN transports the invasion fodder to these camps. And as the comment suggests, much more is flowing over the border. This is facilitation disgquised as restricting - classic Uniparty subterfuge.

#3  /\ Yes, another game changer. "Far too late" indeed. My assessment as well Mike. Not even discussed is the short/long term economic and social impact of illegals already in the States.

As the late Shelby Foote once said "The Civil War Changed Everything." This too, changes everything.

#2  ... Far, far too late. Nothing short of an armed border closure will help now, and it ain't going to happen.
