In a recent Fox News interview, Rep. Henry Cuellar (D-TX) discussed the ongoing border situation and the factors driving migration to the United States. Cuellar highlighted the issue of the “pull factor,” emphasizing that migrants are aware that if they reach the U.S. border, the Border Patrol is unlikely to push them back and will instead assist them. He pointed out that Border Patrol is currently processing migrants who are then released into the United States, where they often wait for years for immigration hearings. Cuellar noted that historically, a significant portion of asylum claims, approximately 87%, have been rejected, but once migrants are in the country, mass deportations have not occurred. There are currently over a million final deportation orders pending.
Cuellar’s comments shed light on the complexities of the immigration system and the challenges it faces. The pull factor, or the perception that migrants will be allowed into the United States and may not face immediate deportation, contributes to the influx of migrants at the border. This situation poses logistical and policy challenges for immigration enforcement agencies, as well as questions about the effectiveness of the asylum process and the handling of deportation orders.
Cuellar also emphasized the need for funding for Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) to carry out deportations, highlighting the importance of addressing both the pull and push factors in addressing the immigration issue. The interview underscores the ongoing debate and efforts to find solutions to the border and immigration challenges facing the United States.
The left won’t call them illegals because that gives us power… they are NOT here legally. They choke on immigrant because these people are not looking for work or assimilation. They think calling them migrants because they moved here a fine term. Well, look it up, they will either be nomads trekking from one state to another using up resources as they go, or the definition I like: migrating birds, which seasonally go back to where they came from. Forget the courts, just ask them if they are illegal or a migrant. No wrong answer, both gets them deported.
Deport every last one of the illegals.
Yes, I agree!
Our ancestors came in through the correct system.
We need to address this issue NOW !!!
And send obama, biden, pelosi and schumer with them.
And please don’t forget loud mouth maxipad waters.
I have never understood why the Democrats condone this to start with. THese people are not American citizens but are getting more help than the American citizen, paid for by the taxpayers and getting absolutely no benefit from it. They are illegal invading our country. They are not immigrants or migrants, they are illegal invaders. Gang members, criminals, terrorist, bringing drugs by the tons, deseases of every kind, taking over this country with the blessings of the Democrats. Why? What do the Democrats want and expect to get out of this. There must be something. I understand they are getting drivers licenses. How can they do that when they have no address to put on the license. They turn them loose in the country and give them a court date which they don’t keep. Nothing can be done because nobody knows where they are. This is utter stupidity. It looks like the Democrats want them to take over the country and turn it into a third world country.If that’s their reason, it’s working
What are they getting out of this? Fraudulent votes.
…and increasing populations in blue states to garner more House seats. There can be only 2 Senators, but number of Congress is dependent on residents — not citizens. More blue in Congress controls the spending.
Yes, and eventually these foreigners wind up voting out Americans from office and installing their own kind. And don’t say it can’t happen because only citizens can vote. How do you explain the likes of Rashida Tlalib and Ocasio-Cortez? You can see how they are trying to influence Congress and others. And this is just the beginning ..
They are quietly changing the balance of the population. They want to dilute the white population by bringing in more illegals that won’t work and will be more than happy to vote for “free stuff” from the Democrats.
James, you hit it on the nose. The Democrats want to change the balance of the population in order to dilute the white influence. They know that promising people “free stuff” will get them votes and keep them in power forever. They are not stupid: this is a plan.
As Franklin Roosevelt once said, “if you see something happening in politics, you can da*m well bet it was PLANNED that way!”
It is SELDOM too late to LOCK THE BACK DOOR and WE ARE A STUPID NATION not to LOCK our
B O R D E R!!!!
That’s because we are focusing on the wrong “enemy”. The real enemy is in our own country … from within … and we need to cut off the head of the snake. It’s past time to ferret out the anti Americans in Washington before it is too late.
Deport slow joe to the old folks home and his administration also. They have know idea what constitution means. They will be giving the illegals the right to vote before the next election, to cheat their way to total control of the American people. Wake up people , vote these commie basturds out before they totally destroy America and our freedoms. Phuck Obummer and his fake unelected third term, because we know slow joe ain’t running the country.
I live in a small northeastern town of about five thousand people and a small college. We have had two murders in the last ten years. Several months ago, they brought in several bus loads of illegals and are housing them in an unused dorm. In the past three months, we have had several sexual and physical assaults committed by illegals. There was an attempted abduction of a ten year old girl walking to school and a stabbing at our local Dollar General all committed by illegals and more are coming. Go Brandon. Trump 2024.
BIDEN INVITED THEM IN. MAYORKA IS A TOTAL FAILURE AND NEEDS TO BE REMOVED FROM A POSITION HE IS UNABLE TO DO HIS DUTY. ALL ILLEGALS NEED TO BE DEPORTED ASAP. IT WILL NOT BE LONG NOW AND BIDEN HAS LOST TOTAL CONTROL OVER THESE INVADERS. THERE WILL BE WAR. BIDENS ADMINISTRATION IS A CLOWN SHOW, THERE IS NO LAW AND ORDER. PRESIDENT TRUMP WAS THE BEST, OBAMA AND BIDEN JUST THUGS AND POSERS.
these people need to be hung for treason and the invaders done-away with
Time to get them to go. Denmark has the right idea: they are deporting illegal immigrants, tearing down their “enclaves”, lest they spread their lifestyles and non-assimilation. They have no intention of being a part of their country, and the illegals crossing our border have no intention of being part of ours. Get them out NOW!
Hang them high get the illegal aliens out of our country now.
Taking us over using all our tax money to care for them– when there are so many true americans needing help right now witn Bidens high ass prices. We the American citizens need help with are on tax money — GET off your democrats asses and help your on people !! But no you sorry democrats want do that, so you all need out of office and someone in who will help the true American people. Get these low-life democrats out of all government offices and agencies we the people need our country back. We need all these illegal aliens shipped back out of our country before THEY take us over !! Biden is the worse thing to ever hit this country and to survive we need him out of our white house.
California under governor Newson is becoming the worse state in America is everyone seeing znd hearing what Newson is doing ? He not only welcomes the illegal aliens but is giveing them free health insurance that includes Transgender surgeries!!!! Yes Newson will change the sex of the illegal aliens at our tax money expense !!. California cannot pay for all that so it will end up with the democrats giving him our tax money to care for these illegal aliens. This is so unfair to every man,women,child in America. These stupid democrats needs out of office and ran clear out of America!!!. How much longer are we the true American people going to put up with all the democrats bullshit ?. We need our homeland back stop giving it away to illegal aliens. The democrats have to leave they our the ones who need to get the hell out of America.
