The White House is preparing new rules requiring asylum seekers at the southern border to apply in the first country they enter, instead of at the U.S. border

Immigrants seeking refugee status would have to do so in third country through which they transited, rather than at U.S. border

As the migrant crisis on the U.S. border with Mexico intensifies, government agency leaders have been invited to testify before the House Committee on Oversight and Reform. Here's a look at the conditions drawing scrutiny and the answers lawmakers will be seeking. Photo: AFP

That’s not new

Finally... you will soon see this has never been about asylum.

Nothings gonna happen as usual

Thank God, that's how asylum is supposed to work.

Can you imagine what Democrats would say if pro-trump demonstrators replace the US flag with Russian flag in California like what the anti-ICE did in CO swapping US flag w/ Mexico's flag? They will surely argue RACISM as the root cause. DissolveCongress

Hallelujah

Now we just need to finish the wall so child smugglers (for prostitution) and drug traffickers will be stopped. We’re finally going to put the Mexican Cartels out of business! The Dems wanted the political power from millions of illegals, but they’ll have to get over it!!

To request asylum one must be in America per the law. This president is the worst!

👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼

Trump also rapes little girls. Why is THIS not front page news?

This is the way US admin treating asylum seekers. And they are talking about human rights.

100% support. All our assistance should go to American homeless, Seniors and Veterans. This is only common sense.

Finally!

That’s total crap

We need snipers at the southern border to aim at those carrying boxes loaded with drugs. Shoot first and ask questions later. Sounds like a good plan.

That's how it should be. Democrats allowed the US to be flooded w/ illegal immigrants in hope someday they'll become US citizen & vote for them. Mexico's flag displaced the US flag by anti-ICE protesters in CO w/o a single voice of resistance from Congress. DissolveCongress

Against odds & a stacked deck! Git ‘er done, Mr. President!

Which is how asylum works. This should have been done decades ago. Go Trump! Trump2020 KAG

Oh he can change these rules but cannot address hygiene, food, clothing,processing. What is running this country much less lead the country. Omg. Obama did the same. NOT

Phil_Mattingly About damn time!

Common sense!

Agree with this. The fact Mexico has offered all these people asylum means they’re no longer seeking asylum. They’re invaders when they cross our borders illegally and I think they should be met with military force. It’s an act of war.

Great. Per international law, they should seek asylum in the nearest safe country. Not one thousands of miles away.

I don't know about any of you but I am getting sick and tired of walking into a store where nobody speaks English!

POTUS Trump, best President ever!

About time! Refugees should seek asylum in the first safe country.

Great idea for new immigrants

NOW if only it passes. This may help. FINALLY.. Start sending home the ones with false claims or those with criminal histories or those with children that are not theirs!!

AWESOME

about time!!!!

TrumpIsDysfunctionalAndToxic

Canada should do the same....Trump can have the ones back at our border running from ICE!!!!

Trump admin moves to end asylum protections for most Central American migrantsBREAKING: Trump admin. will move to end asylum protections for most Central American migrants in the government’s latest major attempt to restrict the influx of migrant families coming to the US. The new rule says asylum-seekers who pass through another country and do not seek asylum there will not be eligible for asylum in the US, according to a statement from DHS. And we all wait to see how far our racist, disgusting president will be allowed to go. Where is the line where ALL our chosen representatives take a stand and say ‘enough is enough’? Why can’t they just admit it and select someone with integrity to run against him in 2020? Except for Cubans because they vote for GOP

Trump moves to end asylum protections for Central AmericansWASHINGTON (AP) — The Trump administration on Monday moved to end asylum protections for most Central American migrants in a major escalation of the president's battle to tamp down the number of... For all you fake-moralists out the there who feign indignation at even trying to quell the influx, can you please give a number on how many we're 'supposed' to take in? Is it 1 million? 100 million? 1 billion? Obama era This is a dishonest headline. It ends all first party asylum claims from ALL regions not just Central America. All it means is asylum seekers must follow the law and go through a third party state and apply.

Trump’s religious freedom conference creates awkward allianceThis coming week, the Trump administration is hosting an event promoting religious freedom that’s uniting the president’s fiercest human rights critics with his most fervent supporters. The two biggest abuser's of religious freedom are India and Israel and they are close allies of Trump. Trump should call Modi and demand to end lynchings of Muslims. Religious freedom you say? uhhh.. you mean for a specific religion? TV producer. Sad.
