United States The United States and Immigration Policy

[Terthna]

The entire Immigration management system needs more funding tbh.

Regardless of your opinion on how many of the people the press calls "asylum seekers" are actually seeking asylum, a judge sending a woman back to her home country to get shot by the people she was running from because the judge doesn't have the information to understand that the gang she was running from was nationwide because that's Central America and the judge has all of five minutes to decide how to handle this case or the judge gets fired is wrong.

Immigration Judges are the only Judges who can get fired, and they get fired if they don't handle enough of their case load, and they have WAAAAAAY too many cases, even with all the people who never show up to court.

True; but as I said, the issue isn't the lack of funding, but rather the refusal to allocate funding. Our government is right now in the process of adding trillions of dollars to our national debt, and yet none of it is going to go where it's needed.

Yep, because DC serves itself and it's own corruption, and now CCP masters, not the American people, and only fools think otherwise anymore.

Our nation is effectively a zombie now, shambling on via inertia more than anything, and now without even the pretense of having trustworthy elections and more civil liberties disappearing everyday.

@Zachowon and @Bacle have both been given a vacation from this thread after their discussion turned too hostile. Remember, the goal of TS is discussion and exchange of ideas, even ones you don't personally like. That's not an excuse to start hurling insults.

Needing more funding doesn't mean "needs more money in the total budget" lol.

Yes, that was the point I was trying to get across.

Ted Cruz has introduced legislation to do so...

Love the idea! Trolling as Legislation as well; it's a two-fer!

Seems that DHS lied about talking with groups representing victims of crimes perpetrated by illegal immigrants.

 

[The Whispering Monk]

So lied as in?
1. The substance of what those groups told them
OR
2. Lied about talking to the groups at all

Mildly amusing...

A Tennessee lawmaker filed a bill Wednesday that proposes relocating those in the U.S. illegally to the hometowns of President Joe Biden, Vice President Kamala Harris, Speaker Nancy Pelosi, and Senate Majority Leader Chuck Schumer.

HB1994 was introduced by state Rep. Bruce Griffey, R-Paris, who says the proposal was a key component in his 2018 campaign run.

Originally initiated by Republican Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis, the bill aims to move those in the country illegally to the hometowns of leaders "responsible for our border crisis."

The bill states "the commissioner of safety, in collaboration with the commissioner of human services, shall develop and implement a system to identify and relocate illegal aliens as soon as practicable upon arrival in this state on and after the effective date of this act."

Arizona's two Democratic Senators back pay increases for US Border Patrol agents.

Sens. Kyrsten Sinema and Mark Kelly, along with Republican Sens. John Cornyn of Texas and James Lankford of Oklahoma, released a bill late Thursday that would give the country's 19,500 federal law enforcement agents within the Border Patrol overtime compensation that other federal police agencies already have.

The Border Patrol Pay Security Act would rewrite the Fair Labor Standards Act so they earn one-and-a-half times their normal pay when they work between 80 and 100 hours in a 14-day period.

Apparently the Border Patrol doesn't get the same overtime compensation that other Federal 'Law Enforcement' agencies have for some reason. In recent years the Border Patrol has lost more members then hired, potentially partly due to the paycuts in overtime that the Obama Administration instituted several years back.

Commiecrat rats are jumping from the sinking ship that is the Braindead Biden admin.

I pray to the stair gods for a miracle.

And the drug gods for the next two miracles.

And then, I await the coming of the Donald.

I have problems with how the border patrol operates, but overtime work should get overtime pay, period.

"Climate change" is about to cause a huge global famine. Prepare for a massive influx of "climate refugees."

Agreed, but some positions are salaried and exempt from overtime pay. They're usually held by the managers and executives who sign off on other people's overtime. They are not held by the people who actually have to do it.
