99% of them demand asylum since the democrats refuse to fix the laws that allow that bogus claim to be the catch all.
Asilo! Gets them in and allows them to raise the mexico flag (the country they just ran through) while tearing down Old Glory.
Democrats!
No, more judges won't fix this crap. New laws will.
Anyone can demand asylum, up to the judges to adjudicate it. And due to the Flores decision, you need to do it quickly unless you want to release them. More judges is the answer, and the Dems have already passed bills that would support that. Trump would rather have a wall.
Socialist/Liberal/TDS speak.
More judges wasn't the answer until the TDS peeps decided they could not keep claiming that is was NOT a crisis. Then the solutions was cameras in certain locations along with drones and a large percentage were coming across from Canada.
The TDS peeps would NEVER approve the judges anyway. Trump knows that BS talking point is only a stall tactic and the wall would be built sooner.
Exactly! and this blows up the notion advanced by the globalists and commie bastards (like Goosey) who maintain that all these people are just "good, wonderful folks fleeing tyranny and they ALL just want their day in court." BS!
And you will note how the commie leaders and their willing gullible followers (like Goosey) are upset when the system they claim to support works. One would think no one would be the least bit upset with ICE rounding up those who have had their "day in court" and issued deportation orders by a judge. You would think flaming libs (like Goosey) would say, see! the system works when you let it. But no! they show their true colors and protest the system "working."
I'll tell you what will work...motion-detector machineguns on the border.
The socialist "One World" Dems are so screwed on this and so many issues. You must link below to see the other issues ranked and graphs.
GALLUP: IMMIGRATION BIGGEST CONCERN...
Mentions of Immigration as Top Problem Surpass Record High
Most Important U.S. Problem, July 2019
What do you think is the most important problem facing this country today? [OPEN-ENDED]
WASHINGTON, D.C. -- After hitting a new high last month, mentions of immigration as the most important problem facing the U.S. increased further to 27% in July. Since Gallup began regularly recording mentions of the issue in 1993, immigration has been cited by an average of 6% of Americans, though it has been higher in recent years. There have been occasional, typically short-lived, spikes when major immigration events were occurring.
The July 1-12 poll was conducted as the U.S. government continues to struggle to handle the large number of Central American immigrants attempting to enter the U.S. via the U.S.-Mexico border. The issue was brought into sharper focus in early July when Democratic congressional leaders and Republican Vice President Mike Pence made separate trips to facilities that are holding the migrants as they await asylum hearings. While Republican and Democratic leaders' assessments of the situation differed, both acknowledged overcrowded conditions and characterized the situation at the border as a crisis.
Republicans have typically been more likely than Democrats and independents to name immigration as the most important problem, and that is still the case. In the latest survey, 42% of Republicans, 20% of independents and 20% of Democrats mention immigration.
All political groups are more likely to mention immigration now than earlier this year. In March, when a 2019-low 16% of Americans identified immigration as the most important problem, 31% of Republicans, 14% of independents and 6% of Democrats did.
Immigration Now Top Overall Problem
Immigration now sits at the top of the "most important problem" list for just the fourth time in Gallup's trend, having also done so in July 2014, July 2018 and November 2018. The issue edged out the government, which has been a fixture at or near the top of the list throughout the latter part of the Obama administration and the Trump administration.
Race relations or racism (7%) and healthcare (7%) are the only other two issues to receive as many as 5% of mentions this month.
Consistent with Americans' positive evaluations of the U.S. economy, only 14% name an economic issue such as the economy in general, unemployment or the gap between the rich and poor. The historical low in mentions of economic issues as the most important problem is 12%, registered in February and in September 2018.
Only Five Other Issues Have Topped 27% Mentions Since 2001
Gallup has asked the "most important problem" question since 1939, and has done so on a monthly basis since March 2001. Over the past 19 years, only five other issues have been mentioned at some point by at least the 27% who named immigration this month. These include the economy in general, unemployment, the situation in Iraq, terrorism and the government.
Implications
- Since 2001, the economy has met or exceeded the percentage naming immigration this month on 58 separate occasions, most recently in November 2012. This includes 58% naming the economy in November 2008 during the Great Recession and financial crisis, the highest percentage naming any issue over the past 19 years.
- Unemployment has reached the 27% threshold 17 times since 2001, topping out at 39% in September 2011, when the U.S. unemployment rate was 9.0% and President Barack Obama was proposing a major jobs program.
- The government has been cited by 27% or more of Americans as the most important problem six times, with the high of 35% coming in February of this year, shortly after the longest government shutdown in U.S. history ended.
- During the height of the U.S. war with Iraq between 2003 and 2007, the situation in Iraq routinely ranked as the top problem facing the country. On 21 occasions, the percentage naming it was at least 27%, with a high of 38% in February 2007.
- Shortly after the 9/11 terrorist attacks, 46% of Americans named terrorism as the most important problem facing the country. Mentions of terrorism surpassed 27% on four other occasions between 2001 and 2002.
Americans' concern about immigration has reached a high point in Gallup's measurement of the issue, at least based on the percentage of U.S. adults who perceive the issue to be the most important problem facing the country. Dramatic images of overcrowded detention centers and acknowledgments from politicians of both political parties that the issue is a crisis have likely contributed to the rise in concern. And even as Democrats and Republicans continue to dispute the best way to address the situation, Congress has passed and President Donald Trump has signed legislation to spend over $4 billion in additional funds to address the situation at the border.
That recent law marked a rare instance when the parties found common ground on immigration since a bipartisan attempt to address the issue in the mid-2000s failed. Obama, who was unable to get a Republican-led Congress to pass immigration reform, resorted to executive orders to attempt to institute new immigration policies. Federal courts blocked that course of action. Immigration was arguably the top issue in Trump's 2016 campaign, and he, too, has been unable to pass favored legislation on the issue, including the full amount of funding he sought to extend the border wall between the U.S. and Mexico. Many of his attempts to circumvent the legislative process have also been blocked by Congress and the courts.
As such, immigration is likely to remain a top issue for Americans, particularly at points when large numbers of immigrants or asylum seekers are attempting to enter the country illegally.

Shooting, even my turrets, the motion-detector machineguns, while effective in certain situations, are not always the most practical. What is?
Well, to quote that line from the movie, Robert Duvall's character: "I love the smell of napalm in the morning."
Trump gets big win on border wall. https://www.cnn.com/2019/07/26/polit...ion/index.html
By doing this, Trump and his supporters are saying the Department of Defense did not need the $2.5 billion; reinforce the left's mantra that military spending can be cut in favor of funding other programs; and have given up on all fiscal control. Great job.
No, it reinforces how important the wall is to the defense of our great country against foreign elements that seek to destroy our republic.Supreme Court clears way for Trump to use $2.5B in Pentagon funds for border barrier
