Mexico’s president said Friday that he is willing to help out with a surge of migrants that led to the closure of border crossings with the United States, but he wants the U.S. government to open talks with Cuba and send more development aid to migrants’ home countries.
The comments by President Andrés Manuel López Obrador came a day after the U.S. announced that a delegation of top U.S. officials would visit Mexico for talks on how to enforce immigration rules at the two countries’ shared border.
Also Friday, U.S. authorities reopened two cross-border railroad crossings in Texas, while keeping operations limited or suspended at other border crossings. And figures released Friday show arrests for crossing the U.S. border from Mexico nudged 1.2% higher in November from October, one of the latest signs of what Troy Miller, acting commissioner of U.S. Customs and Border Protection, described this week as “unprecedented” migration flows.
What does it matter at this point? Florida is so Republican that it’s chasing down imaginary LGBT folk in every schoolhouse. They’re lost to the Democratic Party - so why should the threat of their votes frighten us away from doing the right thing anymore?
I understand you aren’t defending them, just stating the fact of their obstinacy, I just felt obligated to mention that the strategic outlook in Florida has changed this past decade.
I vote we wall off Florida and nickname the wall “Americans cock ring”
I also make this my vote.
Instead of Cuba, we should put isolative sanctions on Florida.
(I will accept calling them a “cock ring”.)
No no. Florida is America’s dick the wall is the cockring.
(And… not just because of the geographic er, similarities,)
