Diverted by new restrictions at many of the leading ports of entry, migrant families, mainly from Central America, continue to arrive in ever-larger groups in remote parts of Arizona, New Mexico and Texas. At least 70 such groups of 100 or more people have turned themselves in at Border Patrol stations that typically are staffed by only a handful of agents, often hours away from civilization.

Washington Post: Border Rush May Hit 100,000 Migrants in March

Neil Munro

The cross-border migrant inflow may reach 100,000 people in March, according to the Washington Post.

“The number of migrants taken into custody last year jumped 39 percent from February to March, and a similar increase this month would push levels to 100,000 detentions or more,” the Washington Post reported March 4. The paper continued:

U.S. court restrictions on the government’s ability to keep children in immigration jails — and the sheer volume of people arriving — have left Homeland Security agencies [on the border] defaulting increasingly to the overflow model Trump deplores as “catch-and-release.”

An inflow of 100,000 per month brings migration up towards the levels encouraged by former President George W. Bush before his economic bubble and 2008 crash.
There is no crisis. There is no crisis. There is no crisis. There is no crisis. There is no crisis
There is no crisis. There is no crisis. There is no crisis. There is no crisis. There is no crisis
There is no crisis. There is no crisis. There is no crisis. There is no crisis. There is no crisis
There is no crisis. There is no crisis. There is no crisis. There is no crisis. There is no crisis
That is correct.

Well on your terms the crisis started in 1971 and has continued to this day, when trump noticed. Dumbass.

No need to worry, Trump admitted it wasn't an emergency while declaring it was an emergency and you believe everything he says so you can relax.

Sure, because being well informed about a national debate and watching a presidential press conference where he hung you ballwashers out to dry by shooting himself in the foot naturally means I'm following such international controversies as holdups on road construction locally nationwide. What a fine argument you have there that doesn't at all just signal that you're running away as usual.

If 100,000 people trying to enter your country illegally within a 3 month span shouldn't be considered a crisis, what would be?

Of course.
100,000 unskilled, uneducated and poor people in a 3 month span overwhelming our border resources? Meh.

ORANGE MAN BAD!!!!!!! Me no likey!!!! Trump is Hitler.

Ever the Loyal Soldier. It's ok to acknowledge there's a problem and still hate the evil orange man. It's possible to do both, you know. Lolz

The bulk of them are actually just getting a toe across then waiting for border patrol to request asylum, and the reason they're doing that is Trump choosing to shut down asylum claims at ports of entry. It's a trump manufactured crisis and the solution, which congress was happy to fund, is providing more resources for immigration detention centres and courts.

Do you think there's been an emergency since 1971? Are you aware that even trump accidentally admitted that it's not really an emergency now?

It's a problem but it's not a national emergency nor a crisis.

Problem? Yes. National Emergency requiring the theft of funds and subverting the constitution? NO

Yes, it was a bigger problem then and it's still a problem now. You can spin it however you want: 100,000 people in a 3 month span trying to enter our country illegally is a problem.

Is it a crisis? Does it rise to the level of national emergency? You know it doesn't but those orange balls are so delicious. Am I right?

I think it rises to level of a big fucking problem. And so do you. I guess it depends on what your view of a "crisis" is. No matter how you view the situation it is finally being featured prominently in the national discourse.

To be fair, with him living in Michigan and having illegals scurrying through his yard as they cross the border, it's an issue that is close to him.
