President Trump May Take Extraordinary Action Against Illegal Migrant Horde, Say Media Reports

Media reports say that President Donald Trump may use his extraordinary power over immigration to temporarily freeze the asylum laws which are inviting the migrant exodus from Central America.

The dramatic exercise of Trump’s border power is being considered as the caravan of poor Honduran migrants slowly heads towards the California border. Officials are still trying to game out the likely consequences, including interventions by progressive judges, media outrage, and hostility from the Mexican government.

Also, the caravan is just a small part of the illegal migration problem, most of which is caused by the cartels’ labor-trafficking businesses. Overall migration has escalated in 2018 partly because judges have repeatedly blocked Trump’s agency reforms, while Congress has refused Trump’s reform bills and refused to fund his border programs, including the wall. The establishment media and business groups have also bitterly opposed any reforms which reduce migration.

But the White House debate is also taking place just two weeks from election day, as Democrats try to shift the public’s attention away from the costs of cheap-labor migration towards the Democrats’ pitch on healthcare and apparent bomb-threats.

The White House is likely to release more information on Friday.

The multiple media reports were vague and closely timed as if a few officials — either pro-Trump or anti-Trump — leaked the reports of the pending executive action to either grab headlines or block the planned action.

The San Francisco Chronicle reported:

The Trump administration is considering an executive action that could use travel ban-like authority to block certain asylum seekers at the Mexican border, sources familiar with the discussions said Thursday.

First, Homeland Security and the Justice Department would issue a rule limiting immigrants’ ability to seek asylum if they are part of a population barred by the president. The rule would take effect immediately, unlike most, and be justified as an extraordinary situation.

That would clear the way for Trump to issue a proclamation directed at a specific population, expected to target the 7,000-plus Central Americans heading toward the U.S.

The Washington Post reported:

Fixated on the migrant caravan moving north through Mexico, President Trump is weighing a plan to shut the U.S. border to Central Americans and deny them the opportunity to seek asylum, asserting similar emergency powers used during the early 2017 “travel ban,” according to administration officials and people familiar with..

Hispanics Flip the Script When Univision Asks About Honduran Caravan

You've probably heard the narrative in one form or another: If you support border enforcement, you’re a horrible racist and probably hate Hispanics.

That implication has never been stronger than right now, as a nearly 10,000-strong caravan of migrants streams north from Central America through Mexico and toward the United States.

The establishment media’s reporting has had both overt and veiled references to racism, with the implication being that anyone who agrees with President Trump — that the migrants should not be allowed to illegally enter America — must be horrible bigots.

But as Univision just found out, that argument just doesn't hold water — especially when other Hispanics are the ones objecting to open borders.

During a segment from reporter Luis Megid on the Spanish-language and often anti-Trump cable channel, several Hispanic Americans were asked for their thoughts on the caravan. It didn’t go how Univision expected.

“How is it possible that a caravan from Central America is on its way to the U.S. and the people are speaking the way they’re speaking, demanding to get in?” responded one Hispanic man in fluent Spanish.

“No sir, this isn’t their country and they need to respect it,” he pointed out.

Another Hispanic man who Univision said was in Florida echoed similar sentiments. “Entering the U.S. illegally? There’s a process. We’re a country of laws,” he pointed out.

“Like the president says, they can come here, but they need to come here legally like the rest of us,” declared a Hispanic woman.

Even a Honduran woman named Carla, who said she entered the U.S. in a previous caravan, told Univision that she’s changed her view after seeing the huge number of people breaking through border crossings and continuing north.

“With so many people I see it as complicated,” she explained. “It’s not right that so many people are heading to the U.S. in...

There has been much ado about “dangerous rhetoric” in the midst of suspicious packages being sent to high-profile Democrats and their mouthpiece at CNN, most of which has come in the form of criticism of President Donald J. Trump.

Democrats have all but forgotten that their side not only has a problem with mob violence, but also with its politicians stoking that mob violence. Enter Sen. Kamala Harris (D-Calif.) from April.

On “The Ellen DeGeneres Show,” DeGeneres asked Harris was asked with whom she would rather be stuck in an elevator – Vice President Michael R. Pence, Attorney General Jefferson B. Sessions, or Trump.

“Does one of us have to come out alive?” she asked DeGeneres smugly.
