Mexican
Gov’t Tries to Avoid Migration Fix
https://www.breitbart.com/politics/2019/06/07/mexican-govt-tries-to-avoid-migration-fix/
5:30
President Donald Trump is
pushing for a comprehensive immigration reform deal as Mexican officials offer
a partial deal that would fall short of the “safe third country” goals sought
by the administration.
Midday
Friday, on his flight back to the United States, Trump reminded the Mexican
government of the trade benefits they could gain if they avoid triggering the
five percent tariffs he has promised for Monday.
If we are able to make the deal with
Mexico, & there is a good chance that we will, they will begin purchasing
Farm & Agricultural products at very high levels, starting immediately. If
we are unable to make the deal, Mexico will begin paying Tariffs at the 5%
level on Monday!
The
“safe third country” deal sought by the administration would extend a routine
international practice to the region. It would require migrants in the region
to seek safety and asylum in the first safe country they reach, and allow the
United States border agencies to reject migrants who cross through Mexico to
reach the U.S. border.
The
administration’s plan would minimize the ability of Congress, pro-migration
legal groups, and cheap labor lobbies to import more migrants for companies and
donors because the plan builds on existing laws which allow border agents to
return migrants to countries who have signed a diplomatic deal.
A Thursday report in the Washington
Post, however, showed that Mexican officials are offering a mix of
temporary security measures — extra border police in the south, for example —
and a partial diplomatic deal that would require U.S border agencies to accept
Guatemalans who claim a fear of murder and torture, even after crossing through
Mexico:
The Washington
Post sketched the Mexican offer on Thursday:
Any
migrants who made it to the U.S. border generally would be deported to the
appropriate third country. And any migrants who express a fear of death or
torture in their home country would be subjected to a tougher screening
standard by U.S. asylum officers more likely to result in rejection.
But that deal could still allow the cartels to overwhelm the
border agencies with migrants carrying unprovable claims of death threats —
especially if pro-migration groups persuade friendly U.S. judges that Mexico is
not living up to its side of the deal.
The public side of the
Mexican pushback is coming from Mexican TV personalities in the United States.
A May 2 op-ed in the Washington Post said:
Last spring [in 2018], the
Trump administration began pushing an idea onto Mexican officials:
Mexico should sign a “safe third country” agreement with the United States that
would allow the growing wave of Central American immigrants to apply for asylum
in the country, effectively authorizing U.S. border agents to summarily turn
back potential refugees.
Then-Homeland Security
Secretary Kirstjen Nielsen had begun insisting on the possibility of such an
understanding with Mexico’s representatives as early as April. She urged
immigrants making their way north to “seek protection” in Mexico before considering
doing so in the United States. Still, despite Nielsen’s perseverance, Mexican
officials didn’t budge. Then-Foreign Minister Luis Videgaray dismissed the possibility. “A safe third
country status would turn Mexico into a final destination for immigrants and
would invalidate any further bid for asylum in the United States. That’s why
we’ve rejected it,” Videgaray said.
The
op-ed was written by León Krauze, a Mexican-born news anchor, KMEX, which
is Univision’s station in Los Angeles. Krauze continued:
The
[current] Mexican government doesn’t seem too keen on the [safe third cuontry]
idea, either. In a recent interview, Mexico’s ambassador to the United States,
Martha Bárcena, told me that an agreement like the one described in the DHS
report is just “not in the cards right now.” Bárcena acknowledged that U.S.
authorities have brought up the possibility of such a deal “on multiple
occasions.” Mexico, she told me, remains opposed to the idea.
Jorge
Ramos, another news anchor for Univision TV, is also campaigning against the
deal, which could sharply reduce the inflow of Spanish-language TV watchers
into the United States:
Immigration is not a problem that you can
fix like an old car. We can only aspire to manage it. We are talking about
human beings who tend to go to safer and richer countries. It is totally unfair
to ask Mexico to do what the United States couldn’t do.
Ramos
also scolded Mexico’s President, Lopez Obrador, for considering a deal with the
United States:
Defending
Mexico against Trump is more than an economic issue, it is a matter of national
dignity.
“EPN”
refers to the prior president of Mexico, Enrique Pena Nieto, who left office in
2018.
Defender a México frente a Trump es más que
una cuestión economica, es una cuestión de dignidad nacional. @epn
nunca lo entendió. @lopezobrador_
no lo debe olvidar.
“Mexico cannot become Trump’s immigration
police.” (On CNN) twitter.com/jorgeramosnews…
Part of the
problem is that Mexico’s elite wishes to present itself as welcoming and
generous to other Latino populations, said Mark Krikorian, director of the
Center for Immigration Studies. “Mexico is in a position where it has to choose between
trade with the U.S. or maintaining the image of generous humanitarianism in its
asylum policy,” he said., adding:
Mexico has expanded the
grounds for asylum [in Mexico] far beyond anything the U.N. treaty requires,
and that means literally hundreds of millions of people — maybe billions —
could qualify for asylum in Mexico. If [migrants] can’t get into the U.S., Mexico
might become an attractive option … It is 11th largest economy in the world.
Immigration Numbers:
Each
year, roughly four million young Americans join the workforce after
graduating from high school or university.
But the federal government then imports about 1.1 million legal
immigrants and refreshes a resident population of roughly 1.5 million
white-collar visa workers — including approximately one million H-1B workers —
and approximately 500,000 blue-collar visa workers.
The government also prints out more than one million work
permits for foreigners, tolerates about eight million illegal workers, and does
not punish companies for employing the hundreds of thousands of illegal
migrants who sneak across the border or overstay their legal visas each year.
This policy of inflating the
labor supply boosts economic growth for investors because it ensures that
employers do not have to compete for American workers by offering higher wages
and better working conditions.
This policy of flooding the market with cheap,
foreign, white-collar graduates and blue-collar labor also shifts enormous wealth from young employees towards older investors,
even as it also widens wealth gaps, reduces high-tech investment, increases state and local tax burdens,
and hurts children’s schools and college educations. It also pushes Americans away from high-tech
careers and sidelines millions of marginalized Americans, including many
who are now struggling with fentanyl addictions. The
labor policy also moves business investment and wealth from the heartland
to the coastal cities, explodes rents and housing costs, shrivels real estate values in the
Midwest, and rewards investors for creating low-tech, labor-intensive workplaces.
DHS Frees 5.5K Illegal Aliens into U.S. in a Week; 196K Released in 5 Months
3:27
President Trump’s Department of Homeland Security (DHS) released about 5,500 border crossers and illegal aliens into the interior of the United States over the past seven days, federal data confirms.
From May 28 to June 3, DHS released 5,500 border crossers and illegal aliens into American communities in various states across the country. The latest federal data, obtained by Breitbart News, finds that DHS, in the last week, released nearly 800 border crossers and illegal aliens into the U.S. every single day.
The catch and release process often entails federal immigration officials busing border crossers into nearby border cities — as well as flying them into the interior of the country — and dropping them off with the hope they show up for their immigration and asylum hearings. The overwhelming majority of border crossers and illegal aliens are never deported from the country once they are released into the U.S.
Today, there are anywhere between 11 and 22 million illegal aliens living across the country — the majority of which are concentrated in states like California, New York, Florida, Texas, and Illinois.
In the last week, about 2,500 border crossers and illegal aliens of the 5,500 released were dropped off in El Paso, Texas. Another 1,100 were released by DHS in San Antonio, Texas and another 1,100 were left in 1,100 Phoenix, Arizona. Since December 2018, El Paso has been forced to absorb nearly 70,000 of these nationals, while San Antonio has had to take 73,100.
Roughly 800 border crossers and illegal aliens were dropped off in San Diego, California in the last week.
In the last five months, DHS has released at least 196,000 border crossers and illegal aliens into the interior of the U.S., though this does not count the tens of thousands of border crossers and illegal aliens who have been released into the country by Customs and Border Protection (CBP).
Acting DHS Secretary Kevin McAleenan recently admitted to Congress that “100 percent” of adult border crossers arriving at the southern border with children are being released into the U.S. and eventually given work permits.
Former Kansas Secretary of State Kris Kobach has exclusively detailed at Breitbart News three executive actions the Trump administration and DHS officials could take to immediately end catch and release — including creating additional detention space where immigration court hearings can be heard quickly. Kobach has also warned that wage hikes for America’s blue-collar and working class will not continue while illegal immigration levels are soaring.
At current catch and release rates, by the end of the year, DHS will have freed more than 470,000 border crossers and illegal aliens into American communities — in addition to the projected half a million illegal aliens who are expected to successfully cross the U.S.-Mexico border this year, undetected by federal officials.
Every year, the U.S. admits about 1.2 million legal immigrants with the overwhelming majority, nearly 70 percent, coming through the process known as “chain migration,” whereby newly naturalized citizens are allowed to bring an unlimited number of foreign nationals to the country. The mass inflow of legal immigrants is in addition to the hundreds of illegal aliens who are added to the U.S. population annually.

“I am a Trump supporter. But I have a duty, under my oath to speak out. President Trump is NOT utilizing his power as Commander-in-Chief to secure the border. For just one example, he could federalize the New Mexico National Guard and deploy them back to the border now that the leftist Governor of New Mexico has pulled them off. Why hasn’t he done that?" said Stewart Rhodes of Oath Keepers.
Rhodes added, "And he can also deploy the regular US military to the border, in strength, to actually seal it between ports of entry. By failing to use his powers as Commander-in-Chief, he is failing in his duty to defend this nation and to see that the laws as faithfully executed. He can’t blame that on Congress or the courts. He hasn’t even tried."

The U.S. Created Just 75,000 Jobs in May, Much Worse Than Expected
2:05
The U.S. economy created only 75,000 jobs in May and the unemployment rate was unchanged at 3.6 percent, the Labor Department said Friday.
Economists had expected the pace of job creation to moderate to 180,000 after April’s extremely hot initial report of 263,000. The unemployment rate was expected to rise to 3.7 percent.
The estimate for jobs created in March was revised down to 153,000 from the previously reported 189,000. April was revised down to 224,000.
After revisions, the economy has added 151,000 over the past three months. For the entire year, payroll gains have averaged 164,000, a much slower rate than 2018’s 223,000.
Wages gains slightly lagged forecasts. Average hourly earnings were up 3.1 percent compared with a year ago, just below the 3.2 percent expected, and 0.2 percent compared with April. The average work week held steady at 34.4 hours.
Unemployment is at the lowest rate since December 1969. The rate for African Americans declined sharply to 6.2 percent from 6.7 percent.
The lower than expected figure for job creation, however, is likely to intensify expectations that the Federal Reserve will cut its interest rate target sooner rather than later.
Professional and business services was the strongest category for the month, adding 33,000 positions. Health care grew by 16,000. Construction added 4,000. Manufacturing and mining added 3,000.
Retail shrank by 15,000. There was no noticeable bump from Census jobs, which many economists had expected to show up in May’s numbers.
