Let’s look at amnesty. This is how every open border group does it - they say, “Go to the US and make a bull$h1t amnesty claim”. Then you can be released into the country with your court date in 2031. democrats then throw up their hands and say, “What can you do?” with a wink and a nod.

You're confusing amnesty and asylum. The current immigration problems are caused by people claiming asylum. Not amnesty.

Unlike past waves of people seeking entry to the U.S., asylum seekers are allowed to present their claims while in the U.S. (even if they crossed the border illegally) and don't have to leave the U.S. for their claims to be granted. Those claims do not require meeting the criteria you describe, which are used to establish citizenship and not a lawful right to remain in the U.S. They are typically resolved (on average) in about four and a half years. If you don't have the money to detain them in camps (and thus feed and clothe and house them for years), and you don't have the money to speed up the review of their asylum claims, you have to figure out what to do with them for that time period.

The TPS measures (and many others) you describe in your prior posts upthread are administrative efforts to try to deal with this problem. People who are pending their asylum claims generally can't work, which puts enormous strain on the communities they're living in. If you grant them TPS status, they can get jobs and hopefully provide for themselves instead of living on the dole. Those are measures that can be taken to try to mitigate the consequences of migrants that are in the U.S., but they can't keep the migrants out of the U.S. - or keep them out of the communities, unless you set up a few hundred thousand detention center beds. Which costs money, which requires Congress....well, you know the rest.
