Because if you do, then you should note that this bill allows 150,000 illegals in a month. Which puts it a little under the average of two of the worst months we've ever had.

This is incorrect. The 5,000 is a rolling average over two weeks, so at the end of two weeks, there is a shut down that allows 1400 asylees only at ports of entry. So if we say there are 5,000 X 14 days = 70,000. Threshold met. Now of those 70,000 encounters, ~33% don't pass the interview, IIRC, so 46,900. Then 1400 a day for 16 days, 1400 X16 = 22,400. 46,900 + 22,400 = 69,300.

So from that month 69,300 go forward. Now let's say the new narrower criteria reduces those allowed after court to 20%, from 40%.

That would mean 69,300 X .20 = 13,860 allowed.

Then there's the 8,650 one day trigger.

And all GOP can run on changing the cap to 365 days a year.

You can have a MAGA festival at the shut down border! Kid Rock! Ted Nugent! John Voight! Kanye West!
