The "Remain in Mexico" mess

"Biden does not think he is an enemy of the state. He thinks he might be re-elected should he run again. If he really does not think he is an enemy of the state, he needs to stop acting like one. Opening up our borders to an invasion is treasonous. Just saying..." 

Just like when Roe was still valid, RBG, as well as other legal scholars, said it was bad law. Should have never been federalized. Should have been a states rights issue. As much as I would have liked to see the "Remain in Mexico" policy remain in effect, I also realized, it was bad law. For different reasons than Roe, it was still bad law.

Even though a lower court had mandated the "Remain in Mexico" policy should be followed by the Administration, both Mayorkas and Biden gave the court the middle finger. "Nope - we will not comply!", was their response. And - if the Supreme Court had agreed with that ruling, there is no doubt in my mind that Biden's and Mayorkas' middle finger would have come out again. It ended up being just a big nothing burger.

There was another issue also, which was pointed out by the court's opinion. We really have no right to dictate to Mexico what they will or won't do. When Trump was President, he used his influence with the President of Mexico to get this done. It was not a law with Mexico, it was a gentlemen's agreement, which stood. The fact we had just agreed to the USMCA, cemented that relationship. It was a good deal for everyone.

Where do we go from here? We hold our breath, and wait until January of next year. Lord be willing and the creek don't rise, we can get enough conservatives elected who will be able to blunt Biden's nonsense. If not, if people are still cowed by the sophism coming out of the blue team, I fear the result. Our country could be in for a very bumpy ride.

My hope is that after the midterms, we have enough political will and strength to start rounding up all these "got aways" as will as the "catch and release" folks. Find them, and send them home. Believe it or not, we still have an immigration system which works. That people can come here legally. Not as a mob. Not trafficked. But legally. 

One more thing. After seeing how 53 illegals cooked to death in a "cloned" truck, we need to be even more vigilant at our border crossings. Like, shutting them down. Since Mayorkas swears our border is closed, let's then really close it. The cartels have gotten too cleaver in how to get illegals, as well as deadly drugs, over our borders at legal crossings. "Cloned" trucks, is just the latest example. 

Biden does not think he is an enemy of the state. He thinks he might be re-elected should he run again. If he really does not think he is an enemy of the state, he needs to stop acting like one. Opening up our borders to an invasion is treasonous. Just saying...
