‘Let’s Solve The Border Crisis In One Tweet’: Dan Crenshaw Offers Novel Solution For Illegal Immigration | Eastern North Carolina Now

    GOP Rep. Dan Crenshaw of Texas, fed up with the lassitude that the Biden administration has shown dealing with the huge numbers of illegal immigrants crossing the border, offered a novel suggestion to fix the problem.

    In data released last Friday, Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) reported they had arrested roughly double the number of illegal aliens in 2022 from 2021. ICE made roughly 143,000 arrests in fiscal year 2022 as opposed to roughly 74,000 arrests in 2021.

    "Let's solve the border crisis in one tweet," Crenshaw began his Twitter thread. "Instead of spending billions more on 'processing,' spend more money on jet fuel. Pack planes full of migrants who cross illegally and deport them immediately. The crisis will end within months."

    "Why not just turn them away when they cross?" he asked rhetorically. "Many have asked why Texas doesn't do that. Because we have a river. Once they're in the river, they're within our jurisdiction. We can't physically secure the Rio Grande. Even if we did turn them back, they'd cross somewhere else."

    "So you need jet fuel," he reasoned. "You need to be sending people far away from the border, thus making it unimaginable for someone to make the journey all the way north if they're just gonna be sent back home."

    Then Crenshaw turned to the problem of repatriation, noting former President Trump had found a successful way to encourage Latin America to cooperate: "And if the State Department can't negotiate agreements for repatriation (think Cuba and Venezuela)? Then versions of Remain in Mexico policy must be aggressively pursued. Trump did this by threatening Mexico with tariffs. It worked. What about people with legitimate asylum claims? Well, we should have a process to claim asylum through our consulates and embassies in those countries or neighboring ones. Trump did this, it was called Asylum Cooperation Agreements. Biden ended those."

    Crenshaw fired at the Biden administration: "The truth is, the 'compassion' of democrats open borders has allowed so much abuse to take place of our asylum system that the backlog is well over a million. This means that real asylum seekers around the world have almost no chance of getting into the system. In summary: fund airplanes, holding facilities, immigration judges, ICE prosecutors, walls, and technology capable of detecting fentanyl. And stop the abuses of our asylum system. That's what border security would look like."

In what may be the most divisive period in modern American History, even more divisive than the turbulent sixties due to today's lack of patriotism, consider what are the major catalysts causing so much of this calamity of conflict, and vote: What most instigates the division of America, on this day September 20, 2022?

  Racism within our society

  Sex realignment to the detriment of our society.

  Biden /Harris Wide Open Southern Border Policy for the Demographic Upheaval of OUR Constitutional Republic

  Rampant Crime in Democratic controlled cities, and the possible contagion elsewhere

  Covid Pandemic, and its mishandling at the political, and bureaucratic levels.

  The unresolved questions /allegation regarding the flawed 2020 General Election

  January 6th Riot or "Armed Insurrection", depending upon patriotic perspective

  Joe Biden as Divisive Leader; Ineffective and Corrupt Executive

  Failed Education Industry, from an overall perspective, regarding all levels of education.

  Propagandistic Media in complete conflict with the First Amendment's guarantee of Freedom of Speech, and the awesome responsibility of a Free Press..

  "Orangeman Bad!"

  Bureaucracy rushing to a behemoth size, its unjustified expense, and far too often overreach.

  The Weaponized Deep State for political purposes

  A secular ambivalence to all that is real.

  Record number of overdose deaths from opioids and now Fentanyl

  Biden Administration's disastrous Foreign Policy

  Bidenflation /supply chain failure inevitably evolving into stagflation and recession.

  "Ultra MAGA Extremists" freely speaking louder AND LOUDER!

The previous poll on Eastern NC NOW showcased what are many of OUR Constitutional Republic's certain obstacles to remain viable, where the top encumbrance to that continuance as a functioning Republic was the Biden /Harris Wide Open Southern Border. Understanding this overwhelming concern to real America citizens: Do you believe it important to challenge the veracity of those legislated concerns of Democratic Socialists by transporting Illegal Migrants to their Sanctuary cities, counties and states for their direct care?

  Yes; test the depth of their "compassion" by giving Democratic Socialists an opportunity to enact all Sanctuary provisions in their communities to test how much they truly do care.

  No; the Biden /Harris Wide Open Southern Border Project is designed to only inundate "Red States" to begin their Demographic Upheaval for the benefit of we Democratic Socialists, our politics.

  I generally do NOT care about politics, but it is fun watching abject hypocrites squirm; maybe I will start getting more involved.
