We have Republicans and Democrats suing to remove President Biden's asylum policies.
Immigration advocates say President Biden's new border policy is a draconian restriction that will "effectively eliminate asylum" for most migrants. Republican officials in Texas, however, said the opposite is true, warning that the regulation will trigger an "influx of migrants" with unvetted asylum claims.
How can both be true?
The Biden asylum ban disqualifies migrants from asylum if they did not first seek refuge in a third country before reaching the U.S. southern border. Those who cross the border unlawfully and fail to prove they deserve an exemption to the rule face swift deportation and a five-year banishment from the U.S. The banishment was not allowed to happen under title 42.
The American Civil Liberties Union and other advocacy groups said Mr. Biden's rule, just like two Trump administration asylum restrictions blocked in federal court, violates laws Congress passed in 1980 to protect refugees fleeing persecution.
Okay, so I can understand the position of the immigration advocacy groups opposing Biden's policy but dumbfounded by Republicans opposition to it. Mostly because it mirrors President Trump's Transit ban.
So what's up republicans? Opposing just for the sake of opposing? Opposing because it's a Democratic initiative? What's the real problem here? I'm hoping to move to a discussion that concludes with more than R is good and D is bad or vice versa.

I was disturbed by an article I had recently read. The main theme emphasizing similarities between the current administration and the period during the 1920's after WWI and before the deluge of Hitler's ascendency in Germany. Yes, the article is from Salon but its content is still food for thought....

Is that because 70% of what used to be illegal crossings are now legal, with Biden flying them all over the country? Because that's no help at all.
