People from other countries are flooding across our border. Mostly from the south, or at least using the south door. Southern states are and have cried for aid for years, and in exasperation they are sending the crowds to states that have stated they welcome them. This, along with the insecure border, has created a serious security and health risk. The screening process is catching far less than 50% by many counts. This is truly a health and safety emergency.
Where is FEMA in this?
If our federal government would tighten some of the domestic expenditures for "disasters" that do not need a federal response, except for political purposes. And, if we would pull back even a small percentage of what we send to other nations. Especially in an attempt to bribe them to keep these people in their own countries. Why couldn't FEMA work with Homeland Security to set up tent cities where these people could be held and sorted as they are screened for both health and safety, and then sent on to other states when approved, or deported to their country of origin?
Typical of a government system, we are facing total and complete chaos, and political fodder for the upcoming election season. To put this in my own personal perspective, I compare this to a parent who knows the odds of good vs. evil in their child's contacts, but does nothing to teach, mentor and monitor their activity while others steel them away.
A side not to this that has made my feelings on this stronger is issue with the park in Eagle Pass TX. This isn't about Texas taking a staging area away from Border Patrol. This is about Texas saying there are ports of entry nearby in both directions from this point. Quit flooding across here and avoiding the legal points of entry. Instead of allowing Texas to control the flow across their state, Pres. Biden is forcing maximum flood stage along the river.

F*** Every Middle American! That's what FEMA really means. They won't do anything. Neither will any other .gov agency. Not until people get fed up with the BS. Then the National Guard will be called out to shoot protesters. Just my not so humble opinion on .gov in general.

I think Frank is right. The nation has been stolen by a national party and the minions of government.

Those are 5 words I never hear! ;)

The only way to break this downward spiral is for government to quit spending so much money. When you take away the money, you take away the power. Ain't gonna happen. Inevitable downward spiral.

This is getting interesting now!
Pres. Biden went to the Supreme Court to force Texas to abandon Shelby Park and for the Border Patrol to cut the razor wire. Both Gov. Abbott and the Texas National Guard gave Pres. Biden and the Court a big middle finger. They pointed out that this was our national border and needed to be protected.
By the way, on the south edge of this park is the international bridge where these people can legally cross and be processed by whatever processing organization there is.
I go back to my stance that I have held since I first understood migration: Come across legally, and you are welcome. Need help, and we will help you. But, follow the rules within an orderly system.

Suspend 100% of immigration for 12-36 months to sort this out. Special exemption for those escaping persecution (seeking asylum) as INDIVIDUALLY named and approved for immigration review by a majority vote of both the House and Senate on a slate of no more than 20 individuals per vote. 100 people require 5 separate votes on 5 slates; 101 persons would require a sixth slate for instance. Each slate must include at least 3 families of 3 or more . The dims do not like work so only the needy who have a case will likely make a slate to be voted on.
Make it illegal for any government entity local, state or federal to provide or require any benefits if that government entity has a budget deficit of any amount.
Special exemption also for every 100 illegals deported two immigration visas can be awarded.
Any illegal legally sentenced with a capital crime to be executed within 90 days of conviction and any appeals must be successfully appealed within that time period or the execution shall take place.
Any illegal caught with or displaying the flag of another nation shall be deported within 15 days to include anyone in his immediate family or anyone he resides with. (Choose your friends carefully).
