Seems like something parents should decide, not the state. Also seems like it will be difficult to enforce.

Biden considering new executive action to restrict asylum at the border, sources say Article: https://www.cnn.com/2024/02/21/politics/biden-considering-executive-action-to-close-southern-border-sources-say/index.html Biden said he needed Congresses authority to do this. Clearly he was full of it. Trump did the same exact thing and the Dems threw a hissy fit and a liberal judge struck it down

Now that all the land to the east of the stadium is cleared, maybe Orlando City Soccer Club can make their own scaled down entertainment complex. Another possibility is to turn it into apartments and retail that looks similar to nearby City View. They could also make either of the lots a parking garage for those who don't like going for a hike to get to the stadium.

Google Maps has updated it's 3D Satellite view of Downtown Orlando for the first time since 2018.

I think it has more to do with the facts that the majority of the people trying to come here illegally are poor and are a net negative on our society. Everything the American government does should be in the best interest of American citizens. We don't owe the world anything. It's not in the best interest of American citizens to have millions of people with no money, no skills and don't speak English coming here. Work visas are fine because that actually benefits American citizens.

I forgot. We're now calling everyone who illegally enters our country an "asylum seeker."

I like the border bill except the part where it gives the President the authority to shut down the border only after 5,000 people illegally cross the border, and it gives out 275,000 work visas to illegal immigrants. If they got rid of that it would be a great bill.

I didn't know this part was in there. I was gonna say reforming our asylum laws is arguably the most important thing, and I'm very glad if it stays in the bill. I'd like them to strategically place more of the type of 30 foot wall used under the Trump administration too. I know it doesn't fix things 100% but it's effective when used in conjunction with other border measures. I know I couldn't get over a 30 foot wall. Even if the wall only has a 25% success rate (which I think is being extremely conservative) then that is still thousands upon thousands of migrants that will be stopped over the years.

I've tried to find out what's in the border bill and it doesn't seem like it does much. It seems like it mostly does two main things. It allocates more money to process illegal immigrants (err "asylum seekers") faster. That's a negative because it does nothing to actually stop illegals from coming here and actually encourages them to come since they know they'll be processed much faster now. The other thing is it gives Biden the authority to close the border when too many illegals cross. If this is all it does, then it's useless and I hope it doesn't pass. This do-nothing bill is just theatre for Biden to pretend he's taking the border seriously when he most certainly is not.

President Biden needs to get much tougher on the border ASAP! A strong border has bipartisan support.

After successfully suing Trump twice, E. Jean Carrol may have finally figured out how to shut Trump up. $5 million didn't shut him up the first time, but the $84 million seems to have done the trick. On Trump's first rally after the trial, he didn't even mention her. Donnie's losing money left and right.
