releasing them in to the country. that s where the the resources are going. they re not going on the enforcement side. this remain in mexico thing, understand the solution is simple. if you put our asylum courts and our immigration courts attached to embassies in honduras, guatemala, mexico, only legitimate asylum seekers will show up. remain in mexico was a step martha: we know only 10% of people have a credible asylum claim in this country. all of these kids are getting over and falling into the wrong hands. it s an absolute tragedy. nobody is looking for them in many cases, they don t have any identity on them at all. thanks, timothy ballard. operation underground railroad if you want to learn more about it. thanks very much. thank you, martha. the anger is boiling over at the city county meeting in uvalde,
are 11 million plus illegal immigrants a lot of them didn t follow the system and then mayorkas said, well, of course, the system is broken. trust the system that of course is broken more incoherence this time on a different front from the biden administration. bret: harold, barring congressional action here it, seems like we are going to be going around in this circle a lot. that s because we are, look, secretary mayorkas is nice. seems smart and definitely decent. he is not the man you want managing a i was crew. we have a crisis at our border. i think at some point when you are in the middle of a crisis, political parties it s incumbent upon them to sit back and say let s figure out what we are for, what each party is for. and let s figure out what we re against and figure out how renegotiate. democrat give them the wall. get more money for the asylum courts, immigration courts at the border so we can speed up these processes. there is no reason for people to be waiting for year
how this will be implemented. courts will be look ath this very closely, very quickly, i assume. also the question of whether it s going to be effective. i m not entirely sure that s going to solve the problems that the administration is trying to solve, stop the influx of these asylum seekers. does this essentially mean that everything is put on hold and no one will be granted asylum from the southern border in the interim? if you read the rules that are designed right now, every central american obviously has to go through mexico is making these asylum claims. if you don t make an asylum claim there, then you re not eligible. the way i read the rule right now, it looks as though they can return these people to central america. at a minimum, they think they can return the people to mexico to make their asylum claim there. they ll have serious concerns when they say we re taking 40,000, 50,000 people a month and sending them back. this doesn t completely close alcohol s to the asyl
together. i don t want to take kids away from their families. we know there s strings attached. is this a political pawn or is he using the kids as a pawn to get what he wants? the pictures are bad. they re horrific to look at. and they re winning right now. look at both sides. one side has pictures and the pictures are winning. that is really prompting republicans to say okay, let s get some kind of legislation and you have mitch mcconnell, you have the senate he s going to meet with them later today. the legal question in this is the big solution is to get the people in as fast as they can to the asylum courts, the immigration courts and process them faster. it s not going to happen. how does that happen with thousands of people? we know it s very hard to do this. we know look, trump ran on immigration reform. that was his crack down trace: no surprise. right. he said i m going to crack down. i wand a border wall. i m going to security the border. will he back down? i don
suggested this morning, i don t have time to play it, but essentially an alternative to the detention facilities, keep families together, keep them on house arrest until claims can be dealt with as policy questions are going on. would youupport that? well, i don t think we need house arrest. under the obama administration in june 2017, they began a program that would essentially allow these families to live together and they they would report back to the asylum courts. when the trump administration took over, they got rid of that probnd we never got to see the oig report. i want to add one thing, you ow, we don t need legislation to change what is going on right now. all we need is for the president to rescind the zero tolerance policy and the kids can be back with their parents. that s exactly right. and talk of legislation is whether border wall or anything else is just to distract
