The president is considering changes to asylum qualifications, possibly limiting it to ports of entry. The White House urges Congress to pass border security measures. The border chief reports apprehending criminals. Critics blame the border crisis on executive actions. The president has existing powers to act.

We led a delegation of 64 House Republicans to the border. The deputy chief of border patrol told us that the situation feels like trying to control an open fire hydrant. He said we need to reduce the flow, and one way to do that is by reinstating Trump's policy of remaining in Mexico for asylum seekers. This alone could reduce the flow by 70%, but President Biden refuses to do it. Making a few other changes would solve the problem, but he won't take action.

Trump says he secured the border. Nobody's coming into our country. Now we have the border totally stopped. We've got the most controlled border we've ever had in the history and in my lifetime in the border patrol, We're going to continue getting there. In Eagle Pass, TX, during the Biden administration, more than 2,000 migrants crossed into The US in a single day. But now, under President Trump's policies, officers encounter just 20 migrants a day here. They were cutting through this barbed wire here and coming across the Rio Grande, sometimes with parents holding their children on their backs as they cross the water. Now it's a total change. What we're seeing and what we're hearing from the border patrol chief and the agents on the ground here is that anyone who crosses now is arrested, prosecuted, and turned back over into Mexico.

We have implemented a strategy for a secure, humane, and orderly border. Things are going much better than expected. Our approach is working, and we have taken unprecedented action. We are managing migrants safely and orderly. The border is closed, secure, and we are executing a comprehensive strategy to solve the flow. Our top priority is a secure border.

To secure our border, we should listen to the experts who successfully did so in the past. For instance, starting with the "Remain in Mexico" policy and stopping fraudulent asylum claims are crucial. It's important to note that around 90% of asylum claims are false, and this abuse of the system needs to be addressed. Additionally, ending catch and release is essential because it allows individuals to avoid court appearances and contributes to the problems in our cities. Differentiating between migrants seeking a better life and the unknown "Godaways" who pay cartels to enter the country is crucial. Surprisingly, the Department of Homeland Security isn't sharing the number of Godaways entering the country, which is a significant concern. This information should be made public as it is a vital statistic.

The speaker emphasizes that the border is not open and clarifies that thousands of people are crossing the border daily, with some surrendering themselves and others evading capture. They mention the importance of securing the border and highlight the efforts made by the president to address the situation since day one. Additionally, they mention the country's economic strength and refer to the January 6th attack as the most severe assault on democracy.

Most Americans believe the administration is failing on the border issue as the number of people attempting to cross the southern border is at a record high. The speaker acknowledges the broken immigration system and emphasizes the need for a safe and humane border policy in the short term. They also highlight the importance of addressing the root causes of migration in the long term. The speaker urges Congress to take action and stop playing political games, encouraging them to be part of the solution.

We have implemented a strategy for a secure, humane, and orderly border. It has exceeded expectations and proven effective. Our administration has taken unprecedented action to manage migrants and ensure safety. The border is closed, and we are executing a comprehensive strategy to stop the flow and secure our borders.

You treating migrants humanely? No, reports show they’re on planes without water. That’s nonsense. Our detention facilities exceed all standards. Check the ICE website for our performance-based standards; they’re the highest in the industry. But are you only detaining illegal criminals? There are reports of students showing bruises from deportation flights. That’s absurd. We investigate any claims. The ICE professionals I led uphold the highest standards. We care for detainees while enforcing the law without apology. Are you using military planes for deportations as a tactic? No, we’re securing the border, which is a national security risk. Illegal entry is a crime. The current crisis overwhelms border security, leading to increased drug trafficking and terrorism. President Trump will secure the border and enforce immigration laws without hesitation. Expect our efforts to intensify soon.

We need strong borders to protect our country from the influx of drugs and illegal crossings. The current administration's policies have allowed millions of migrants to enter, overwhelming city shelters. Many cities are struggling to cope with this crisis, which is affecting schools and public safety. The border situation is dire, with reports of violence and crime linked to illegal immigration. Former President Trump emphasizes the need for a completed border wall to combat smuggling and crime. He plans to highlight these issues during a campaign event in Arizona, asserting that without strong border control, the country faces significant challenges. The ongoing situation has led to tragic incidents, underscoring the urgency for effective immigration policies.

Afghanistan, Egypt, Russia, and China are coming to our border because the federal government has failed to secure it. Governors, like in Texas, are sending National Guard troops to help. The border crisis affects everyone in the country, leading to drugs flooding into communities. This is a national security and humanitarian crisis caused by the administration's failure to act.

I will keep pushing for a complete ban on the border initiative to increase Border Patrol and asylum officers. President Trump's statements are unclear and confusing.

The speaker states that an historic flood of undocumented immigrants crossed the border during the first three years of the administration, with arrivals quadrupling from the last year of President Trump. The speaker asks if it was a mistake to loosen immigration policies. The other speaker responds that the policies proposed are about fixing a problem, not promoting one. The first speaker reiterates that the numbers quadrupled. The other speaker claims that they have cut the flow of illegal immigration by half, as well as the flow of fentanyl by half, but that Congress needs to act to fix the problem.

Thousands of migrants are waiting in shelters in Northern Mexico, while officials claim the border is closed and secure. The situation at the US southern border is said to be reaching a breaking point, with nearly 10,000 daily encounters on average. However, some argue that this is not a border crisis but rather a result of imperialism, climate issues, and trade problems. Despite differing opinions, the president is praised for his efforts in securing the border and addressing immigration. Since December, there have been over 35,000 migrant encounters and a total of 250,000 encounters so far.

In the last 24 hours, there were 9,300 migrant encounters at the border, totaling 45,000 encounters in the past 5 days. New York and Arizona are unable to accommodate more illegal aliens due to financial and space constraints. The suggestion of "remain in Mexico" is brought up as a solution, which was effective before January 2021. However, under the Biden administration, this approach no longer seems to work.

It would be wrong to think that the border is open; it is not open. Thousands of people are walking in a day. Some turn themselves over, some are caught, but tens of thousands a week are not. It is not that simple; it's not just that people are walking across the border. They want to secure the border, and they've been doing that work. The president has done the work to deal with what we're seeing at the border since day one. When you look at inflation, we are stronger economically than we have been in history. What we saw on January 6 was the worst attack on our democracy since the Civil War.

I've appointed the VP to lead our efforts with Mexico and the Northern Triangle to help stem the migration of many individuals to our southern border.

The speaker was asked when the border situation became a crisis, and responded that the immigration system has been broken for a long time, even before the Trump administration. The speaker stated the system needs to be fixed and more resources are needed, such as more judges to process cases faster. Congress is the only place that can fix it. The questioner noted that many Trump border policies were rescinded and that the border patrol union supported a bipartisan bill, but also endorsed Donald Trump and called the current administration a failure on border security.

I started my career in immigration enforcement in 1984 and worked for 6 presidents. Every president secured the border until Biden, who intentionally left it unsecured. The border went from the most secure to historic illegal immigration levels. The administration moves people to ports of entry to show fewer illegal entries in between, but it failed. There were over 300,000 crossings from November to December. Biden's policies are causing people to come and stay, with 1.9 million "gotaways" proving the border is not secure.

Speaker 1 discusses the crisis at the border, claiming that politicians in the United States are lying to the American people. They mention the large number of people entering the country illegally and the overcrowding at immigration centers. Speaker 0 expresses admiration for Speaker 1's courage and suggests that people heading north are doing so because they believe they are invited by President Biden. Speaker 0 argues that if the border cannot be effectively closed or if people cannot be deported or imprisoned, then the United States does not truly have a country. The conversation ends with Speaker 0 being asked about rescuing children at the border.

Last night, a new record was set with 10,000 people crossing the border illegally. This highlights the ongoing crisis we are facing. It's not just people from South America, but also individuals from 160 other countries. Recently, it was reported that someone with ties to dangerous items was involved in smuggling people across. I have requested a classified briefing from the White House for Congress, but it has not been provided yet.

The speaker claims illegal immigration has dropped from 10,000 people to zero, and ICE and border patrol morale is at an all-time high. Mexico is allegedly no longer cooperating with illegal immigration forces because they are afraid. The border wall will be completed to the Gulf in some form. Comprehensive immigration reform is unnecessary; enforcing existing laws is sufficient.

We need to quickly send help to the border for those seeking asylum. They deserve to have their voices heard. As a nation, we believe in providing refuge to those fleeing oppression.

Why don’t we just clean up the border? Biden has the power to do that, but the asylum backlog is overwhelming due to increased immigration. Many cases don’t lead to deportation because they’re often approved for asylum. The current administration is influenced by special interests, which complicates immigration policy. There’s a significant number of people applying for asylum at the border, and many enter the U.S. on visitor visas before seeking asylum, exploiting a loophole. While some argue deportation is necessary, it doesn’t align with the Democratic Party platform, which is shaped by those who fund the party. This influence affects how immigration issues are addressed.

Thousands of people are gathered at the border, causing a significant impact on the United States. The media only shows the surface, but the situation is much more dire. A recent flight with Texas DPS revealed that agents were unavailable to respond to individuals located miles away from the main gathering. The border system is completely broken, and the truth is not being told. Each bump on the ground represents a person, and there were 12,000 encounters today.
