  8. Keep in mind while you make a false claim of 5000 a day for 365 days, there is currently no limitations on the number of asylum seekers in our existing laws or statute to close the border and ignore asylum protections. The bipartisan Senate bill set those limits and it's detailed. The House republicans passed all the funding, for Ukraine. There is no reason not to negotiate and compromise on this bill, if border security was the real intention of Republicans. And it is not. I've seen no evidence of it just theatrics fed to people living in a bubble. ‘‘(3) ACTIVATIONS OF AUTHORITY.— ‘'(A) DISCRETIONARY ACTIVATION.—The Secretary may activate the border emergency authority if, during a period of 7 consecutive calendar days, there is an average of 4,000 or more aliens who are encountered each day.

  18. Due to false claims of voter fraud, asylee’s not showing up for court, criminal activity, and just right-wing claims used to breed hate. The Right has unilaterally decided to undermine legal asylum, as they feel it’s a loophole in the law. And have dubbed it as an open border policy and fed that buzz word to a right-wing base who have no understanding of immigration laws. Trumps zero tolerance policy to separate children of legal asylum seekers, remain in Mexico to deny asylum protections inside the US, and Title 42 to stop all legal asylum at the border under title 8 authority (with some exceptions after Biden took office). All attempts to stop legal asylum under US laws that have been in place for over 40 years (title 8 USC 1158). Yet now using it to trigger a base that is now openly full of hate on immigrants and this hate is now fed by GOP governors feeding off of that for votes from GOP supporters who immoral views support separating children from parents as a deterrent, use of lethal force, lying to immigrants to ship them to dem cities to stick it to libs, incarceration, and placing them in the hands of traffickers. All because of immigrants who may or may not have violated a misdemeanor that carries a civil penalty. Trumps immoral policies were violating US law by snatching children from legal asylum seeks as a deterrent. Courts overturned that policy that the Right still supports and defends. Harris was never appointed as border czar, by Biden. There are no 85000 missing children, and these immigrants cannot use their driver’s license to vote. The Right does nothing but lie.
