Thread: Trump says he is considering using emergency powers to build wall

Why are visa overstays not actively being told to leave? They should be easy to find and identify if working. We keep accumulating those, too.

Excellent question, GeorgiaPeach. He visa overstays is a segment of the illegal alien population that is seldom spoke about. Is ICE even pursuing them?

We need another new party. I thought we had a new party, I had hopes something would finally be done to SAVE our country. We have been betrayed by an imposture. We need to start trying to find someone now.

You're not alone!

President Trump nor most of his cabinet or allies detail the impacts on our communities. The costs in healthcare, incarceration, jobs, lives, crime. There are demographic changes that should not be forced upon us.

We rarely hear anyone go through the costs in each state. People should know that social justice comes at a high price when it is illegal immigration and robbing taxpayers.

Over 700 million dollars a year is spent on illegal immigration in my state. Our republican governor gave us the gift of a gas tax hike while supporting in state tuition for illegal aliens and amnesty. We hear a collective number about the costs but not the nitty gritty facts.

Allowing the democrat Jared Kushner, Touchback Pence, and the other amnesty team members in his government to barter away with democrats is not very reassuring.

Hi GeorgiaPeach! Trump has already used the national emergency power to help stop the caravans. That's how he sent the active military to the border to construct the concertina wire barriers.

Nothing has stopped these caravans. They are going to other areas on the border and crossing by the hundreds.

Maybe so. I don't know. I haven't seen any more of them on Tee Vee.

Just because you don't see it on T.V. doesn't mean it isn't happening. T.V. reporters can't be everywhere all the time and they don't typically operate along the border after dark. I'm sure we're being nickel-and -dimed ..... 4 here, 6 there, etc. Not really newsworthy as far as the news media is concerned. Nobody's saying much about the individual families, small groups of 2 or 3 smugglers, etc. because there have been much larger groups to concentrate on and talk about.

A lot of them are also breaking up into smaller groups, which makes it easier to go undetected.

I'm talking about the caravans of thousands. You're talking about every day illegal immigration. I think the caravans of thousands have been stopped.

Huh? Hadn't heard that but I did here something recently about new caravan forming as we speak.

Another migrant caravan from Honduras set to leave January 15. With this mass sum of people, why can they not create change and a movement in their country? We need to update our immigration laws on illegal entry! #migrantcaravan #Honduras #ImmigrationReform #immigration
