Brandon Judd of the National Border Patrol Council is right when he says on @foxandfriends that the Democrat inspired laws make it tough for us to stop people at the Border. MUST BE CHANDED, but I am bringing out the military for this National Emergency. They will be stopped!

Honest question though, without trying to provoke something: why are they not applying for citizenship or trying to enter the country in a legal way? It's not like every country simply has to allow people to cross their borders because they come by literally thousands at at time..is it?

Perhaps they aren't going to pass through the citizenship test?

 

 

Not sure about "why didn't try to enter the country in a legal way" though, maybe they just love risky challenges :p

In Indonesia, many women from rural areas worked as housemaids in the Middle East and they don't have work permit and sometimes doesn't understand Arabic (in extreme case even they are not fluent in Indonesian!). How risky is that? Maybe you can relate about the refusal of "try to enter the country in a legal way" from this case.

Well yes, but then isn't there at least something to say for not just saying "oh, ok, everyone come in"?

Emmanuel Macron landed in Bratislava to starts his official visit of Slovakia (today) and Czech Republic (tomorrow) as first president to come celebrate the mark of 100th anniversary of establishment of nowadays sadly non-existing Czechoslovakia.

 

quite logical since France was the first country to officially recognize Czechoslovakia as a sovereign independent country. :yes

Well thier specifically looking for asylum. However, a lot people (I believe) lack the means and knowledge to full out or find the correct documents.

    • Podium finish in the men’s race for  Filippov. It is the first podium of the winter season for a neutral/Russian athlete.
    • that's basically last year's IA Division Worlds roster the only new name is Finoro so, the names might well be there
    • I will do my best to organise a pairs competition also involving nations from the 4 teams that are eliminated in the first half of the team competition along with the lowest ranked individual nations at the halfway point (end of session 2) to form 8 pairs. Pairs will be balanced so that the highest ranked nation in the competition will be paired with the lowest ranked nation, second highest with the second lowest and so on. All of that will be based on the individual ranking at the halfway point.   This way every nation will have at least interest in some event until the end of the 3rd session.   I will probably base it closely on @mrv86‘s proposed rules, and have sprints every 3 rounds of votes. The pairs with most medals from those 3 rounds get the points along with an extra bonus for medal and points doubles.   I do only have 1 day to organise this now so I can’t promise anything though.
