A young illegal alien who was caught and released by federal immigration officials is now accused of killing a Mobile, Alabama mother and teacher in a head-on collision.

White House officials are not considering an offer of Temporary Protected Status asylum to the many Venezuelans who are fleeing from their socialist dictator, a White House official told Breitbart News. 

Sen. Marco Rubio and 23 Democratic Senators are asking President Donald Trump to grant asylum to Venezuelans, even though the grant would minimize the Venezuelans’ incentives to overthrow their country’s Cuban-backed dictatorship. 

The migrant inflow may reach 100,000 people in March, according to the Washington Post, as Democrats, business-first Republicans, progressive judges, and cartels hold open U.S. borders.

Chris Odette — father of Chrishia Odette — spoke to a crowd at a Fund the Wall protest in front of the White House on Saturday morning in Washington, DC. He and other speakers called for the construction of a border wall to protect American citizens.

Sen. Kirsten Gillibrand (D-NY) agreed with the claim that a wall along the southern border would cut off “indigenous people” in America and said President Trump is “afraid of immigrants.”

Democratic legislators are using the budget/wall negotiations to reopen catch-and-release loopholes that have been narrowed by President Donald Trump’s appointees. 

But in theory, an agreement should be possible, because the changes the Trump administration seeks at the border are not radical, and because Democrats have agreed in the past to similar physical barriers to what Trump is proposing.

The city of Portland, Maine is “struggling” due to mass legal immigration primarily from Africa being driven to the region, as public resources and the state’s social safety net are strained. 

Migrant unemployment continues to be a problem in Germany, with government research revealing the majority of asylum seekers who arrived in 2016 are still unemployed.

The U.S. government will try to end most catch-and-release policies on Friday by sending migrants back to Mexico pending their asylum hearings in the United States, according to Reuters.

Hondurans who want to escape poverty and corruption are launching another caravan of migrants towards the Californian border, according to the Washington Post. 

A Venezuelan Supreme Court Judge fled to the United States on Sunday to protest the continued rule of Nicolás Maduro’s regime, days before the socialist strongman takes power for a further six-year mandate. 

Congress’s toleration of the nation’s catch-and-release rules is responsible for the migration crisis, outgoing Chief of Staff John Kelly told the Los Angeles Times.  

The Supreme Court declined on Friday to step into a legal challenge to President Trump’s asylum caravan proceedings, allowing that case to proceed in the lower courts until next year.

Former immigration judge Art Arthur said it is “unclear” if a federal court ruling on Tuesday requires the U.S. government to return all previously deported aliens whose asylum requests were rejected.

The United States agreed in 1980 to implement the United Nation’s rules on refugees. This means a group of recently deported migrants must be flown back to the U.S. and be given another chance to win asylum, a Democratic-appointed judge declared December 17.

Denmark’s migration minister Inger Støjberg has told the country’s Somali migrants to return home and work on improving their own country after the Danish government ruled parts of Somalia safe.

Univision anchor Jorge Ramos on Wednesday evening said that the caravan migrants seeking asylum are becoming more “intelligent” and sneaking into the United States illegally because they have discovered how porous the U.S.-Mexico border actually is.

Central American migrants in the caravan held a press conference in Tijuana, Mexico, on Tuesday and demanded that the United States speed up its asylum process to allow more migrants into the country.

Almost 400 migrants carried other people’s children or youths, or lied about their adult age, to get over the border in the nine months prior to September 30, according to the Department of Homeland Security.
