OLB was talking about people who have come into the country, been through the steps to apply for asylum, had their hearing, and been denied asylum. That's a whole other thing than the people who are being detained without having the due process of going through the system to be granted or denied asylum.
OLB asked if we are going to look the other way when the legal steps have been followed and those denied asylum are allowed to stay anyway. If being denied asylum means you get to stay anyway...why bother going through the motions.
Why are we spending millions (or billions) on going through the paces if the results mean nothing?
Nope, not giving him a pass. This is simply cover on his part.
He is ignoring that all this shit started with Trump's vilification of entire groups of people and terrible "zero tolerance" policy. The mess we are in now is a crisis the GOP created.
And again, any human, who is in the potential of going back to a place where they might die, is going to do what they have to to survive. He's falsely trying to make this about even non violent undocumented people, when the mantra was sold by Trump with words like "invasion" and "caravan", as if these innocent people WITH KIDS were an infestation.
The talk by Trump was not about solving problems, it was coded language to people with white anxiety that he'd protect their race.
If he wants a solution, I gave him solutions , and those solutions do not involve vilifying entire groups of people.
