DAVID MARCUS: The border sob stories are coming, and they are all Joe Biden’s fault

We got lucky, we got an appointment,

one asylum seeker told CNN

Should ICE presence near such locations become more common, the likelihood also increases that children could witness a parent’s detention, arrest, or other encounters with ICE agents,

Golden said

What has helped calm my nerves is knowing that the school stands with us and promised to inform us if it’s not safe at school,

said Carmen, who asked her last name not be used for fear of being targeted by immigration agents

This action could have devastating consequences for immigrant families and their children, including US citizen children, deterring them from receiving medical attention, seeking out disaster relief, attending school, and carrying out everyday activities,

Olivia Golden, the interim executive director of the Center for Law and Social Policy, said in a statement

Criminals will no longer be able to hide in America’s schools and churches to avoid arrest,

the statement said

I don’t want to say when, but it’s going to happen. It has to happen, or we’re not going to have a country left,

he said

It’s like he came in with a very hardline anti-immigration agenda, ... and he intends to carry out that agenda in every possible realm of policy, in every possible way that he can.”

explains senior political reporter Joan E Greve

The Biden administration had managed to restrict asylum by opening up some other legal avenues and hope that would stand in the court. As of today, there’s almost no way of getting protection at the US border or anywhere along a route to the United States,

said Andrew Selee, president of the think tank Migration Policy Institute

They may wait for a while and see what’s going to happen. Whether they wait for a day or a few months, if they’re this far and committed, they’re eventually going to try anyway,

the Homeland Security official said, referring to migrants

The decision to eliminate all avenues to seek asylum, even for families with children fleeing for their lives, is a stunning development, one that makes a mockery of our post WWII commitment never to summarily send people back to danger,

said Lee Gelernt, ACLU attorney who led many of the challenges to Trump’s border policies in the first administration, in a statement

They say they do want immigrants in the United States, but legal ones. Obviously, we did all this legally. … Right now we don’t know what’s going to happen,

she said

Since we are here, please let us in,

said Yaime Perez, a 27-year-old Cuban

We have had birthright citizenship for centuries, and a president cannot take it away with an executive order,

he told AFP

All illegal aliens seeking entry into the United States should turn back now,

he wrote

Please, after all the work we have put in to get here, let us enter your country, so that we can better ourselves in life and be somebody,

she said

This is about national security. This is about public safety, and this is about the victims of some of the most violent, abusive criminals we've seen enter our country in our lifetime, and it ends today,

she said

All illegal entry will immediately be halted, and we will begin the process of returning millions and millions of criminal aliens back to the places from which they came,

he said

I'm fine with legal immigration. I like it. We need people, and I'm absolutely fine with it. We want to have it,

he said

First, I will declare a national emergency at our southern border. All illegal entry will immediately be halted,

Trump said moments after being inaugurated

We will reinstate my Remain in Mexico policy. I will end the practice of catch-and-release. And I will send troops to the southern border to repel the disastrous invasion of our country. Under the orders I signed today, we will also be designating the cartels as foreign terrorist organizations,

he said
