    Well, maybe not, LOL:

    https://www.washingtonpost.com/national/biden-immigration-policy-changes/2020/12/22/2eb9ef92-4400-11eb-8deb-b948d0931c16_story.html?utm_source=feedly&utm_medium=referral&utm_campaign=wp_national

    Top advisers to President-elect Joe Biden said Tuesday they will not immediately roll back asylum restrictions at the Mexican border and other Trump immigration policies, tamping down expectations for the kind of swift reversals Biden promised on the campaign trail.
    Speaking to reporters on a conference call, several members of the Biden transition team said the incoming administration would “need time” to undo “damage” to the U.S. immigration system and border enforcement policies that have severely limited the ability of asylum seekers to qualify for humanitarian protection.
    The transition officials echoed statements made by Susan E. Rice, Biden’s incoming domestic policy adviser, and Jake Sullivan, his pick for national security adviser, in an exclusive interview published Monday with the Spanish wire service EFE urging patience with their immigration agenda.
    Rice told EFE that Biden will use executive authority to implement his immigration agenda, but her cautious statements appeared to reflect the incoming administration’s worries that easing up too quickly on Trump’s enforcement system could trigger a new migration surge at the border.
    “Migrants and asylum seekers absolutely should not believe those in the region peddling the idea that the border will suddenly be fully open to process everyone on Day 1. It will not,” Rice said, according to a translation of the interview transcript.

    The saying, "Lite is just one damn thing after another," is a gross understatement. The damn things overlap.

      I expect they are already lining up at the border

      Maybe Mr. Trump will fling the door open as Mr. Biden promised

      Then let's see how Mr. Biden deals with the huddled masses

        Not to worry, CA can always raise taxes.

        Education is extremely important.

          There's already 2 caravans forming to head for our border, anticipating a weak president.

            On an NBC Special Report a few minutes ago they were taking about how he is going to DEMAND Congress do something..not sure what. In any event, I have never ever heard a president or president elect say he's going to demand Congress do anything. It doesn't really work that way.

            Just more fellating.

              That was almost too easy Mik. 555

                Did Trump use the word demand? Not in the piece I saw. Joe did. Huge difference.

                  So Trump never demanded Congress allocate money to build the southern border wall?
