How successful has the war on drugs been? When American corporations and businesses, big and small, stop having an appetite for hiring illegals, then we would see a difference.

Why do you pretend to care about illegal immigrants and at the same time degrade them with condescending comments?

Ever been at Checkpoint Charlie ?????

RedFred

I never once said I care about illegal immigrants, I just don't think they are sub human like Trumpers make them out to be.

Fred is a non-industry terminated automobile financial scrub. Why he is allowed here is beyond me.

I am guessing your country is blocked. Here is Baddogs article.

===== ==== ============== ============ =========

FALFURRIAS, TEXAS – Human smugglers now charge vastly more for clandestine journeys into the United States than just a few years ago. Checkpoints like the one in Falfurrias, Texas, on the highway north from the border toward San Antonio, help explain why.

Migrants coming from Central America regularly pay more than $10,000 and Mexicans often fork over $6,000 just to cross into the United States and continue on to their intended destination. As the costs of human smuggling soar, the smuggling networks have greater resources to evade detection.

The Border Patrol is charged with stopping migrants from illegally crossing over the southwestern frontier and, even more important, from getting into the interior of the country. Getting through the heavily patrolled 100-mile zone beyond the border can be just as difficult as getting into the country.

So while people often think of the border as akin to a goal line that migrants are trying to cross, in many ways it’s more like the 50-yard line.

Border Patrol takes what it calls a “layered approach.” In the Rio Grande Valley, that starts with patrol boats on the muddy river. Next are 18-foot steel fences set back from the river, where agents patrol in trucks. In more remote areas, they use all-terrain vehicles or horses.

Smuggling networks rent houses or mobile homes, cover the windows and begin cycling migrants through dwellings that often are filthy and packed. American investigators call these flophouses on both sides of the border “stash houses,” the same term they use for places where drugs are kept. Houston police raided a stash house in 2014 that had 115 people inside, including children as young as 5, with no hot water and just one toilet.

Before moving a group of migrants, smugglers check their route for signs of law enforcement, said Paul A. Beeson, director of the Homeland Security Department’s joint task force overseeing the southwest border. “They are running countersurveillance on us,” he said.

But many smuggled migrants are caught at highway checkpoints like the one in Falfurrias, nearly 70 miles north of the border and one of the Border Patrol’s last lines of defense. On a busy day, more than 30,000 vehicles pass through Falfurrias and more migrants in the country illegally are apprehended there than at any other checkpoint in the country, said Rene Quintanilla, a supervisory agent in the Rio Grande Valley sector headquarters.

There, agents have to rely on their instincts, Quintanilla said. In just seconds, they decide whether to send a vehicle, and its passengers and cargo, for a more thorough inspection.

Agents are trained to observe incongruities when questioning a nervous driver, like a single key in the ignition, sometimes a sign of a vehicle being used for smuggling, since most people’s car keys jangle on chains with house keys, work keys or knickknacks — or when cars ride low in the back where migrants may be hiding.

Smugglers hide migrants in the trunks of cars, stacked in the beds of pickup trucks and covered with tarps or even locked inside toolboxes in the beds of pickup trucks. Agents have found migrants in the backs of dump trucks and buried in sawdust. Migrants have crammed themselves into all manner of compartments built to avoid detection.

Transporting unauthorized migrants is a federal crime and drivers expect to be well compensated for their risk. The payments vary, from a few hundred dollars to more than $1,000 per migrant. Criminal complaints reviewed by The New York Times and interviews with law enforcement officials show that not all drivers are members of smuggling networks. Some are recruited on Craigslist or Facebook; some drive a group to settle a debt.

Increasingly, smugglers are relying on 18-wheelers, locking migrants in the trailers, often hidden behind the loads of cargo.

In trailers that are refrigerated to keep produce fresh, lightly clothed migrants, some sweaty from the trek or wet from the Rio Grande, can freeze. More often, the unrefrigerated metal containers turn dangerously hot in the South Texas sun. In the last two months, Border Patrol agents have disrupted 42 smuggling attempts along the southwest border involving tractor-trailers, discovering 406 people. Last July, 10 migrants died after traveling in the back of a truck in San Antonio’s scorching heat. The driver was sentenced to life in prison without parole.

Agents say they are trying to protect migrants from dangerous smuggling rings. “That’s what they see them as: a dollar sign,” said Frank Garza, a supervisor at the Falfurrias checkpoint. “Not as a person, just an amount.”

Migrant advocates are often harshly critical of Border Patrol tactics, as are civil-liberties groups. “What happens at checkpoints is very troubling in a lot of respects,” said Chris Rickerd, policy counsel in the American Civil Liberties Union’s national political advocacy department. He pointed to allegations of racial profiling and instances of American citizens’ being arrested with small quantities of drugs.

Efforts to evade detection at the border and at checkpoints are nothing new. Illegal immigration peaked in 2000, when more than 1.6 million people were caught trying to sneak across the border. Spectacular examples have included people hiding in an engine block, behind a dashboard and even inside a passenger seat.

Under President Donald Trump, there is intensified emphasis on catching people entering illegally. Here in Falfurrias, Border Patrol is building an even bigger checkpoint just up the road, redoubling its efforts to uncover hidden migrants.

The main point is today's news that coyotes are now charging 10x more to smuggle people across the border.

And your point is?

Illegal immigration has been down for the past decade. This is nothing to do with Trump; In fact, it's going back up under Trump. On this handy dandy graphic you can see the exact moment Trump took office.

Says the guy who thinks videotaping his grampa signing the papers on an overpriced shitty ex cop car will override a contract.




At least the dealer took the bumper off it before they sold it to him.

I think the graph is showing that apprehensions have been going up since Trump. Still, they are nothing to what they used to be and certainly doesn't show anything truly positive for Trump.

The truth is illegal immigration is down "bigly". This has nothing to do with Trump. Less people are coming to the United States illegally.

So pathetic and scary. If Europe has fallen this low, can the US be far behind?

You're looking at the Trend.
I don't know what you're thinking at but here's the 2017 / 2018 graphs.
