"On Thursday, the Biden administration and Mexico announced a joint deal to slow migration flows through the region. The number of Venezuelans seeking asylum at the U.S.-Mexico border began surging in September, threatening a humanitarian crisis in U.S. border cities, including in El Paso.

"Mexico agreed to take back Venezuelans returned under Title 42, a U.S. public health authority used throughout the pandemic to quickly return migrants to their country of origin, or in some cases, to Mexico. The U.S. agreed to
supply 65,000 additional temporary work visas for Mexican, Central American
and Haitian laborers, and also agreed to accept up to 24,000 Venezuelan migrants in Mexico via air travel, who could show proof of sponsorship in the U.S."

It's always been a big deal. The difference has been in how to deal with it without just moving it somewhere else.

You're not making any sense. We've had a humanitarian crisis at the border
ever since Joe took office. Thousands of people have died along the border since Joe took office. Thousands of unaccompanied minors have turned up at the border since Joe took office.

But it's not a "humanitarian crisis" unless "..a bunch of Venezuelans are coming!"

The same happened under Trump.

It was a humanitarian crisis when Trump was separating families, too.

I can tell. You should have that looked into.

They don't want them "seeking refuge" here in the U.S. because they will speak out about how Socialism ruins everything.

Not at this volume. Not even close!

It was a humanitarian crisis when Trump was separating families, too.

But Biden enticed tens of thousands of unaccompanied minors to the border. He separated more families than Trump did, but he doesn't get the credit he deserves.

Less people were let in under Trump, but the crisis itself was about the same size.

Biden did not separate any families against their will. Trump did. And then couldn't even manage to put them all back together again. Trump's cruelty was cruelty for cruelty's sake, to act as a disincentive.

That was good advice! But that philosophy comes naturally to me (probably to a lot of us. ) It's the leftists who need to listen to those words carefully though!

What you've said makes the most sense, but I've also considered that maybe Maduro has done something to offend the Biden regime, so now the Biden Regime is retaliating by refusing to take in Maduro's undesirables.

Biden didn't ask for 10 thousand unaccompanied minors specifically, but his policies delivered those results. What's more sickening is the way he handled it by NOT handling it, not addressing it, and just ignoring it. It wasn't his kids swimming through that racial jungle of a river.

People sending their kids away to seek asylum is an act of desperation.

Same reason they don't want Cubans, either.

No, they shouldn't. It's a very difficult decision for them.

What's illegal for American citizens should also be illegal for Joe's guests.

You've never made the decision, so you've got no authority to say "it's a very difficult decision." How much is "very?"

If I decide to send my kid to swim to Mexico, because it's a better country than the USA, do you think CYS is going to say "Oh ya, we support Mr Thomas' decision because it was such a 'very' difficult decision for him to make." ?

What if it was an "easy" decision? How would that make any difference?

Full of it, you are!

Things don't work that way, and it's a very different situation from "child abuse."

You've never made the decision, so you've got no authority to say "it's
a very difficult decision." How much is "very?"

It's not a decision made lightly. I have had children, and I know that
sending them alone on a journey to another country at a young age for a better life would be a difficult decision.

If I decide to send my kid to swim to Mexico, because it's a better country than the USA, do you think CYS is going to say "Oh ya, we
support Mr Thomas' decision because it was such a 'very' difficult decision for him to make." ?

These parents are not under the jurisdiction of "CYS."

What if it was an "easy" decision? How would that make any difference?

It wouldn't, but it still would not be "child abuse."

Full of it, you are!

Nah, you're the one making stuff up.
