A granular view of exactly how and why the president's efforts to stymie a mass migration — a combination of foreign diplomatic initiatives and innovative deterrence policies — blunted the wave of illegal immigrants.

Because of intense security at all borders, Central Americans no longer go on their own

To get around the Mexican troops, they now must hire human smugglers who have been forced to significantly hike their fees.

cis.org/Bensman/SixMon…
The massive U.S. return of 55,000 Central American asylum seekers back to Mexico under the "Remain in Mexico" asylum policy has messaged "long odds" to those still downstream of making it across to live illegally.

Acting Secretary of DHS Chad Wolf announced on Wednesday the termination of eligibility for enrollment and re-enrollment in Trusted Traveler Programs (TTP) for residents of New York.

cis.org/Press-Release/…
This is in reaction to the NY Green-Light law, which:

- Prohibits ICE & CBP officers and agents from accessing info maintained by NYDMV
- Relaxes the documentation standards for licenses, requiring the motor vehicle agency to accept unverifiable docs

cis.org/Report/New-Yor…
Ironically, DHS now has more cooperation and information-sharing with Canada, a foreign nation, than the state of New York.

Removal proceedings for respondents subject to MPP are conducted in prefabricated buildings with heating, ventilation, and air conditioning — not tents.

cis.org/Arthur/Tent-Co…
The BIA just issued a decision holding that respondents subject to MPP who have received notice of their hearings, fail to appear, and are removable should be ordered removed in absentia.

cis.org/Arthur/Tent-Co…
It appears that many respondents subject to MPP are not appearing for court, and some are reentering illegally. EOIR should publish statistics on the number of those aliens who fail to appear.

To say that they believe that @realDonaldTrump did ask for foreign interference in our domestic elections and not need to hear more and yet refuse to vote for removal because they like his policies is mind boggling. They argued on the floor of the #Senate that the #Democrat (1/4)
case had come forward because the #Democrats didn’t like the President’s policies yet that now becomes the reason not to call for witnesses. Trying to undermine a domestic election with the help of a foreign government is prohibited by the #Constitution. That is exactly (2/4)
what the #President did and they know it. What has happened to the #RuleOfLaw when even lawyers lie? What has happened to standards? What lessons are our children learning? What is happening to our country and its position in the world? (3/4)

1/ Spent most of my Sunday trying to figure out what's the deal with this extraordinary meeting on #migration today in Paris. France invited Schengen countries, plus AU, IOM, EASO, HCR, et al. Salvini won't bother showing up. Greece is alarmed, but going bloomberg.com/news/articles/…
2/ The immediate problem is what to do with people crossing through the central Mediterranean route. But it's all part of a wider debate on burden sharing & solidarity. There's also a certain annoyance about DE & DR acting as EU's viceroys bloom.bg/2Z31Lj7
3/ The proposed plan is forming a coalition of the willing, offering to swiftly relocate some of the asylum seekers who are disembarked in Italian & Maltese ports. They ll also pledge assistance to Italy to facilitate the swift return of migrants not entitled to asylum protection

1. My Predictions For 2019:
- #Macron will find it more & more difficult to hold onto power.
- #Merkel won't last until 2021 & her power will further decrease this year quarter by quarter.
- I expect that the #Brexit-Exit-date will be moved (most likely by 12 months).
2. My Predictions For 2019:
- The issues of mass-#migration (few real #refugees) will continue to haunt #Europe, especially #Germany & continue to put pressure on the GER #Groko-government (#CDU/#CSU & #SPD).
#Predictions2019 #Year2019
3. My Predictions For 2019:
- The trend of right parties gaining more power (2018: #Italy, #Austria, #Brazil) will continue: In #France #LePen (#FN) will benefit from #Macron losing power, in #Germany the #AfD will gain further support in Eastern Germany (tbc).
