Secretary of Homeland Security Kristjen Nielsen has announced unprecedented action taken by the Trump administration to address illegal immigration.

Effective immediately, U.S. Customs and Border Protection (CBP) are authorized to deport individuals arriving or entering the United States from Mexico back to Mexico for the duration of their immigration hearings.

Neilsen explained how the new protocols would work. (Homeland Security)

“Today we are announcing historic measures to bring the illegal immigration crisis under control,” said Secretary Nielsen.  “We will confront this crisis head on, uphold the rule of law, and strengthen our humanitarian commitments.  Aliens trying to game the system to get into our country illegally will no longer be able to disappear into the United States, where many skip their court dates.  Instead, they will wait for an immigration court decision while they are in Mexico.  ‘Catch and release’ will be replaced with ‘catch and return.’  In doing so, we will reduce illegal migration by removing one of the key incentives that encourages people from taking the dangerous journey to the United States in the first place.  This will also allow us to focus more attention on those who are actually fleeing persecution.

“Let me be clear:  we will undertake these steps consistent with all domestic and international legal obligations, including our humanitarian commitments.  We have notified the Mexican government of our intended actions.  In response, Mexico has made an independent determination that they will commit to implement essential measures on their side of the border.  We expect affected migrants will receive humanitarian visas to stay on Mexican soil, the ability to apply for work, and other protections while they await a U.S. legal determination.”

...

Illegal aliens have exploited asylum loopholes at an alarming rate.  Over the last five years, DHS has seen a 2000 percent increase in aliens claiming credible fear (the first step to asylum), as many know it will give them an opportunity to stay in our country, even if they do not actually have a valid claim to asylum.  As a result, the United States has an overwhelming asylum backlog of more than 786,000 pending cases.  Last year alone the number of asylum claims soared 67 percent compared to the previous year.  Most of these claims are not meritorious—in fact nine out of ten asylum claims are not granted by a federal immigration judge.  However, by the time a judge has ordered them removed from the United States, many have vanished.

Migrants trying to claim asylum will no longer be released into the United States, where they can easily disappear before a judge can evaluate their claim's merits.

Chuck Schumer in 2009:

-Americans don't like illegal immigration
-"Illegal immigration is wrong"
-People illegally in the U.S. are "illegal aliens," not "undocumented"
-Border fence made the southern border "far more secure...created a significant barrier to illegal immigration" pic.twitter.com/zoVyEgdrTC

— Ryan Saavedra (@RealSaavedra) December 28, 2018

As recently as 2009, Senate Minority Leader Chuck Schumer (D-NY) defended fencing along the U.S.-Mexico border because it created a "significant barrier to illegal immigration."

The Daily Wire's Ryan Saavedra reports:

Schumer made the remarks while addressing the 6th Annual Immigration Law and Policy Conference at Georgetown University about the seven principles he said were the basis of an immigration reform package that he wanted to pass.

"The first of these seven principles is that illegal immigration is wrong, plain and simple," Schumer said. "When we use phrases like 'undocumented workers,' we convey a message to the American people that their Government is not serious about combating illegal immigration, which the American people overwhelmingly oppose."

"People who enter the United States without our permission are illegal aliens, and illegal aliens should not be treated the same as people who entered the United States legally," Schumer continued. "Any immigration solution must recognize that we must do as much as we can to gain operational control of our borders as soon as possible."

Schumer then explained that the construction of border barriers along the southern border made the border a safer place as it made it much tougher for migrants to illegally enter the U.S.

Schumer went on to tout recent progress by Congress to secure the southern border, including 630 miles of fencing "that create a significant barrier to illegal immigration."

Has Merkel Lost It?

ANGELA MERKEL: NATION STATES MUST BE WILLING TO “GIVE UP THEIR SOVEREIGNTY”

German Chancellor says people who complain about immigration should be ignored

Paul Joseph Watson | Infowars.com - DECEMBER 28, 2018

German Chancellor Angela Merkel told an audience in Berlin that “nation states should be willing to give up their sovereignty” and that governments shouldn’t listen to their own citizens on matters of immigration.

During an event aimed at combating populism entitled Parliamentarism in the Tension of Globalization and National Sovereignty, Merkel brazenly said that “nation-states should be willing to give up their sovereignty today” and this should be done via an “orderly process”.

Responding to critcism of the UN Migration Pact, which greases the skids for mass migration to be treated as a human right, Merkel said that international agreements took precedence over the will of the people within individual countries.

“There were [politicians] who believed that they could decide when these agreements are no longer valid because they are representing The People,” she said.

“[But] the people are individuals who are living in a country, they are not a group who define themselves as the [German] people,” she stressed.

Merkel’s forthright denunciation of sovereignty and her continued support for mass immigration comes despite both issues leading to a massive collapse in her own approval numbers.

Earlier this year, a YouGov survey also found that almost half of Germans want to leave their own country “for a more stable political situation”.

Are The Communists Making A Comeback In The Person Of Ocasio-Cortez?

Communists, Ocasio-Cortez and … Jesus?

“Lenin lived, Lenin lives, Lenin will live!”

That was the first line in my Soviet textbooks when I was a little girl growing up in the USSR. Does that line sound familiar? Maybe too familiar. Think back to the Bible. Depending on the translation, the line reads something like this: Christ died, Christ is risen, Christ shall come again. The similarity is intentional. Communists came to power over Christians in Soviet Russia. They knew that they needed to replace the Christian beliefs with something familiar to the people, to ease the transition. So they replaced Jesus with Lenin. 

It is thus not a surprise that communists in the United States similarly discourage Christianity, and similarly use the Bible and Jesus as political ploys to attempt to persuade Christians to align with communist beliefs. Over Christmas, America’s darling socialist Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez tweeted, “For all the anti-immigrant pundits uncomfortable with and denying that Christ’s family were refugees, too” and cited a magazine article for the premise that Jesus, Mary and Joseph were a family of … migrants. Yes, you read that right.

Assuming that the poor woman is uneducated about the history of Jesus and Israel, many concerned Christians chimed in, responding to Ocasio-Cortez’s tweet with points of education about Jesus’s Jewish family, the Roman rule in the Jewish homeland, the family having to travel to be counted for purposes of taxation as required by the Romans. The Christians made it clear to Ocasio-Cortez that Jesus’s family members were not immigrants, and that they did not like Ocasio-Cortez manipulating the Christian religion to push a political agenda. One kind Christian even offered to host Ocasio-Cortez for a meal, in a seemingly benevolent attempt to try and convince the communist that her knowledge has some holes in it. 

But Ocasio-Cortez knew what she was doing. She wasn’t concerned with factual correctness. She was intent on manipulating the masses, so she doubled down on the comparison by posting a drawing of a Hispanic family with halos around their heads, with their little boy depicted as Jesus, migrating into the U.S. It was feelings, not facts, that Ocasio-Cortez was arguing. Jesus was but a means to a communist end for the congresswoman-elect. 

Christianity as political craft is on the rise overall with the radical left. MSNBC “Morning Joe” host Joe Scarborough, just a day after Ocasio-Cortez's tweets, attempted to manipulate Christians into the same leftist political agenda by playing the line “What would Jesus do?” He answered his own question by explaining that Jesus would not support Donald Trump and would aid and abet illegal entry into the U.S. 

This is on the heels of leftist Sens. Kamala Harris and Mazie Hirono, the two women who chose feelings over facts during the Justice Kavanaugh fiasco, attempting to shame new judicial candidates for their Christian faith during the District Court nomination interviews in December. The senators accused Catholic nominees of belonging to Catholic charity organizations that support marriage only between a man and a woman — a radical concept, apparently. The judicial hopefuls assured the liberal senators that the law is what they intend to follow, not feelings. Would devout Muslim judges equally face religious loyalty questions from these same senators, is an interesting issue to ponder.

Again, none of this is surprising from the socialist-puppeted left. Recall that the practice of Christianity (together with Judaism and every other religion) was forcefully discouraged by the Communist Party in the USSR. And by “forcefully discouraged,” I mean only 1 percent of Russian churches remained open by 1939, after the commies settled in — as clergy and churchgoers were shot or sent to labor camps. To maintain a consistent hatred of religion, the Communist regime “confiscated church property, ridiculed religion, harassed believers, and propagated atheism in the schools,” according to the Library of Congress. History, simply, repeats itself.  

The only difference between the commies of yesteryear and the commies of today are the designer suits and Manolo Blahnik shoes, purchased on the Capitalist market at Capitalist prices. The ideas, the strategies, and the propaganda remain the same.

Here's The Deal That The Democrats Should Strike, If They Wanted To Protect The US

  These Boots Are Made for Double Standards

There is a wall deal to be done. If Democrats actually loved America and cared about the safety of our children, it could get done. But it's clear they don't.
 
A deal is there for the taking. Before there was President Donald Trump, there was deal-maker extraordinaire Trump. That Trump wrote "The Art of the Deal." That Trump loves to negotiate. That Trump understands how to get a deal done. That Trump understands that both sides need to win something.
 
I've got that deal. But first, a few thoughts.
 
As I write this, the government has been shut down for five days. Anyone notice? Me neither. Time flies when you're having fun! Government is shut down, and it doesn't affect most of us one bit. That's why they call it "nonessential." Maybe we should learn a lesson and fire these "nonessential" employees permanently.

On to the economy. Retail sales figures are out for Christmas. They are the best in many years. American consumers are buying like crazy. The media and economic "experts" preach doom and gloom all day about a collapsing stock market and a coming recession. Yet the Trump economic boom won't cooperate. Retail sales are soaring -- in the middle of a stock market crash. Gross domestic product is down slightly. But it's still 3.4 percent -- that's double Obama's typical GDP. You can't stop Trump.
 
And that is precisely why liberals, D.C. swampers, deep staters, Never Trumpers, the liberal media and even the GOP establishment are so bitter, angry, hateful and negative toward Trump. They're jealous. None of them could produce what Trump has produced.
 
Finally, we have Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez. She compared illegal alien migrants trying to break into America to baby Jesus. Here's the truth in the real world, not the airy-fairy, make-believe world of socialists: The odds of finding another baby Jesus among the illegals invading America are zero. But the odds that among the illegal alien mobs are some gang members, drug traffickers and other criminals are 100 percent.
 
We need the wall -- along with billions of dollars in high-tech surveillance equipment and thousands of new border agents. It's not either/or. We need all of it. So here's the deal. It's a win-win.
 
Part 1: We (Trump, the GOP and I) get full funding for the wall. Democrats get full funding for the new Hudson River tunnel in New York. Everyone wins. We all get something we want.
 
Part 2: We end chain migration, the visa lottery and birthright citizenship. Adios. Democrats get a deal for the "Dreamers." They get to stay. We all get something we want.
 
Everyone wins. It's that simple. That's the deal to be done. But we all know Democrats won't do it. They have no interest in a deal. They need open borders to win elections.

Thus, Trump has two options to make it happen. Either use an executive order declaring a national security emergency and reassign $25 billion from the military budget, or pass it out of the Senate using "budget reconciliation." That requires only 51 votes to pass. Case closed. We get our wall. Dems get nothing in return. You decide.
