Trump appears to end DACA negotiations as migrant caravan marches toward US
2018-04-01
[Washington Examiner] President Trump appeared to kill the prospect of making a deal on the Deferred Actions for Childhood Arrivals program as a caravan of thousands of migrant workers make their way through Mexico toward the U.S.

Trump, after wishing the country a happy Easter holiday, tweeted a plea to Republican senators to change the rules of the upper chamber to pass tough new immigration laws.

"Border Patrol Agents are not allowed to properly do their job at the Border because of ridiculous liberal (Democrat) laws like Catch & Release. Getting more dangerous. ’Caravans’ coming. Republicans must go to Nuclear Option to pass tough laws NOW. NO MORE DACA DEAL!" Trump tweeted.

#7  There is no catch and release law. PDT can simply issue an EO, if he hasn't already.

#5  Time to go read Camp of Saints, if you haven't already. It's really quite prescient for something written back in '73. From le Wiki:

The Camp of the Saints is a 1973 French novel by author and explorer Jean Raspail. The novel depicts the destruction of Western civilization through Third World mass immigration to France and the West

Raspail has said his inspiration came while at the French Riviera in 1971, as he was looking out at the Mediterranean.

What if they were to come? I did not know who "they" were, but it seemed inevitable to me that the numberless disinherited people of the South would, like a tidal wave, set sail one day for this opulent shore, our fortunate country’s wide-gaping frontier.

#3  Who's going to stop them? Army of more than 1,000 Central Americans fleeing violence and unrest march unchallenged through Mexico towards the US border

#2  Line the border with those South Korean turrets that don't really do IFF, just open up on anything that moves. Post signs saying "If you cross the border, you will die."

#1  'All American Division' Provisional Task Force meets illegal caravans at the border and turns them away. Temporary border encampments established. 90 day rotational brigades assist with foot patrols, tactical drones, and wall construction using DoD budget and Army Engineer Battalions augmenting contractors, deploy ground sensors, establish drop zone (DZ) and landing zone (LZ) for resupply, airborne quick reaction force (QRF), etc. Secretary Mattis jumps in and is greeted by Task Force commander. Stays for chow and rifle range events.

I will be happy to write Operational Order (OPORD), survey drop zone, act as reception committee. Pay my own way, bring my own vehicle and chow.

This shi* ain't that hard. Please advise.
