Subject: Re: NYT: Biden Border Disaster
Yes, both articles explain briefly the mistakes Biden and staff made. The problem started when he was President-elect, and continued. They continually misread the situation, or were suicidal ideologues (not mentioned in the article.) We've got to read these things and sober up, be practical. My approach at this point might be - Trump is starting to flail, let him flail, and shrewdly design our messaging.
How? Narrower immigration that is humane. Brief but humane due process for overstays. Right way vs wrong way for asylum applications at the borders, with limits and remain in Mexico. Only real criminals shipped to prisons outside the US.
That's to start the ball rolling. :)
Agree with all of this.
Better control of temporary workers. Better path to legal permanent residency, too.
