Now or never: Trump's 'wall' talk sparks migrant rush on U.S.-Mexico border

By Gabriel Stargardter and Julia Edwards

CIUDAD JUAREZ/WASHINGTON (Reuters) - Gang violence and poverty have for years pushed Mexicans and Central Americans north to the United States, but recently a new driver has emerged: the anti-immigrant tone of leading Republican presidential candidate Donald Trump.

From the slums of Central America to close-knit migrant communities in U.S. cities, Trump's rise to the front of the Republican pack has not gone unnoticed and is partly behind a spike in the numbers of migrants trying to enter the country, including children traveling without guardians.

Interviews with migrants, people smugglers and officials show many migrants are trying to cross now instead of facing tighter policing and new policies to halt illegal immigration if Trump or another Republican wins the Nov. 8 election.

"If Trump wins, we're all screwed and all Latinos are screwed," Isaias Franco, a 46-year-old from El Salvador who was deported from the United States late last year and is now trying to get back, said at a migrant shelter in Ciudad Juarez, just across the border from El Paso, Texas.

U.S. Customs and Border Protection (CBP) data shows 150,304 migrants were detained trying to cross the U.S.-Mexico border between October and February, up 24 percent from the same period last year.

Similar data for "unaccompanied" child migrants - those traveling without a guardian - is not yet available, but between October and January, 20,455 kids were apprehended on the southwest border, up over 100 percent from a year ago.

The numbers of migrants typically rise as summer approaches.

Like other migrants, Franco is aware of the U.S. presidential race and Trump's vow, matched by fellow Republican candidate Ted Cruz, to deport all the illegal immigrants in the United States, estimated at more than 11 million.

"You watch the news ... There's a lot of fear among Latinos," Franco said, adding that a Republican victory would spell the end for proposed reforms to give many immigrants greater legal security.

Hope Hicks, a spokeswoman for Trump, said migrants understand his policies. "It seems they agree Mr. Trump will be tough, build the wall and stop illegal immigration."

Blanca Rivera, who manages the Ciudad Juarez migrant shelter, said she had noticed a recent surge in the numbers of migrants and also blamed the inflammatory rhetoric.

"They think they need to take advantage while they can."

NOW OR NEVER

Trump has built a strong lead in the race for the Republican nomination in part by taking a tough stance on immigration.

He says Mexico is "killing" the United States with cheap labor and has sent "criminals" and "rapists" across the border. He is also promising to build a huge border wall and proposed a temporary ban on Muslims entering the country.

Although Trump has been the most outspoken candidate, his main rivals also say the government must stop the flow of illegal migrants into the country, mainly from Mexico, El Salvador, Guatemala and Honduras.

Trump, Cruz and Florida Senator Marco Rubio all say they would overturn President Barack Obama's executive orders that shield some illegal immigrants from deportation.

In 2014, tens of thousands of child migrants traveling without family members overwhelmed the southern U.S. border, sparking a political crisis. The flow then fell in most of 2015 but has surged again in recent months.

Brenda Barrios, a 30-year-old Guatemalan based in Silver Spring, Maryland, crossed illegally into the United States in 2003 with her parents and two sisters.

Her parents were later deported back to Guatemala, and they think it is too dangerous to return but Brenda is encouraging them to come before the end of the year in case Trump wins.

"He's one of the reasons why people are crossing the border. They think he looks like a dictator," she said. "It's very dangerous for them to cross. But it will be worse if Trump is president ... Life will be very difficult for us. He doesn't want us here."

Still, Barrios and other migrants interviewed said the United States, even under an administration seeking to halt illegal immigration, would still be better than the poverty and violence of their home countries.

Since 2014, the murder rate in El Salvador has risen dramatically amid an escalation of gang violence and a regional drought has forced thousands of people, particularly from Guatemala, to head north.

But there are also signs that human smugglers, or "coyotes", are taking advantage of the anti-immigrant rhetoric and peddling the idea that now is the time to go.

Victoria Cordova and her 11-year-old daughter Genesis were deported back to Honduras in 2014, after hiking through Mexico and being detained trying to cross into Texas.

She said coyotes in the Honduran capital Tegucigalpa - who charge about $7,000 per person - have been telling people now is the time to leave.

"Lots of the women here were talking about it, and asked me if I was going to go," she said. "People here were saying that in June of this year they were going to give new entry permits."

Ruben Garcia, the director of the Annunciation House migrant shelter in El Paso said the next U.S. president, whoever it is, will face the same challenge of migration flows.

"Things in Central America are terrible," he said. "People are going to continue to flee because it's just really hard for people to survive right now."

Watch: Arizona Sheriff Can’t Take It Anymore, Spills Obama’s Dark Secret He Never Wanted Out

"This is a dangerous time to..."

Jack Davis
March 9, 2016

President Obama is making life worse, not better, along Arizona’s border with Mexico, Pinal County, Az., Sheriff Paul Babeu said Tuesday.

“He has manipulated the data, had agents assigned to low traffic areas and attempted to quiet dissent by calling those who question his approach as misinformed without offering any evidence to support these allegations,” Babeu said.

A tweet from the Sheriff’s Office was to the point:

National Border Patrol Labor Council President Brandon Judd joined Babeu Tuesday.

“We are either going to be a specialized law enforcement agency dedicated to enforcing our nation’s immigration laws or a political arm of the administration,” Judd said.

“The president is bypassing Congress by legislating through policy. These policies in essence are granting amnesty to thousands, if not millions, of persons who enter the country illegally,” he said.

“What we see from this administration is an actual reduction at a time we should be providing more support to secure our border,” Babeu said, noting that illegal immigration is up 25 percent in the first four months of fiscal 2016, including a 102 percent increase in unaccompanied juveniles.

Babeu said 1,500 Border Patrol agents that are mandated by Congress “are not being hired and we see a submission of another 300 Border Patrol agents that are being cut. That’s approaching almost 10 percent of our Border Patrol that is not being added to guard and defend America.”

Babeu said rising terrorism threats make this a dangerous time to leave the border poorly guarded.

“This is a likely avenue of approach for them to come into our unsecure border,” Babeu said. “We should be putting every resource to the border. And instead of threatening the very people who are charged with protecting our country, securing the border, they should be finding ways to further support them.”

Stop Trump Movement Gets Boost From Mexico's Efforts in U.S.

Eric Martin

Mexico is mounting an unprecedented effort to turn its permanent residents in the U.S. into citizens, a status that would enable them to vote -- presumably against Donald Trump.

QuickTake Immigration Reform

Officially, Mexico says it respects U.S. sovereignty and has no strategy to influence the result of the presidential race. Yet Mexican diplomats are mobilizing for the first time to assist immigrants in gaining U.S. citizenship, hosting free workshops on naturalization.

"This is a historic moment where the Mexican consulate will open its doors to carry out these types of events in favor of the Mexican community," Adrian Sosa, a spokesman for the consulate in Chicago, said before an event on March 19. In Dallas, about 250 permanent residents attended the consulate’s first "citizenship clinic" in February and another 150 in its second in March. In Las Vegas, the turnout topped 500.

Underscoring the fine line that separates participation from interfering in another country’s election, Sosa noted that the consulate only hosts the event but it’s community organizations who offer the advice.

Mexico may have the most at stake but it’s not alone among U.S. allies bewildered by -- and worried about -- the reality-television star’s success in the Republican primaries. Trump, who launched his campaign with invective directed at Mexico and a promise to build a border wall (with a “big beautiful door”), identified himself last week as his own top foreign-policy adviser.

"I’m speaking with myself, number one, because I have a very good brain and I’ve said a lot of things," Trump said on MSNBC when asked who he speaks with consistently on foreign policy. "My primary consultant is myself and I have a good instinct for this stuff."

With even senior U.S. Republicans, such as 2012 presidential candidate Mitt Romney, pledging to contest Trump’s nomination to the end, views from other major capitals comprise both concern and calm. An official close to Japanese Prime Minister Shinzo Abe who asked not be named because he was not authorized to speak publicly said a Trump presidency would be a risk for the global economy and security. Trump has targeted Japan, along with Mexico and China, as nations where the U.S. is "getting absolutely crushed on trade."

The government in China still believes it’s too early to focus on Trump given that he hasn’t yet won the Republican nomination, according to a Foreign Ministry official who asked not to be named. The sentiment is shared in France, where President Francois Hollande’s administration says that the U.S. election takes a backseat to addressing migrant crisis, the war in Syria and terrorism threats.
Right to Vote

Joel Diaz doesn’t want to wait to see how it all turns out. The Mexican-American, who has been a permanent resident of the U.S. for six years, arrived at the Mexican consulate in Chicago on Saturday with his wife and four adult sons to register all of them as U.S. citizens in order to vote against Trump.

"We’re very worried," Diaz, 47, an evangelical pastor, said. "If he wins there will be a lot of damage against a lot of people here, and to us as Hispanics, as Mexicans."

Laura Espinosa, deputy consul in Mexico’s consulate in Las Vegas, said the main goal of the program is citizenship, and while that includes the right to vote, the government doesn’t press people to do so. "Those who use this to vote, that’s up to each individual," said Espinosa, who confirmed that most consulates have begun citizenship campaigns. "We don’t have any opinion on that, because that would be totally interfering in internal affairs of the country."

Candidate Trump highlighted the ease of gaining U.S. citizenship. "Do you know how tough it is to become a citizen in Mexico? One of the toughest places on Earth,” he said at a press conference. “So I could understand why the officials in Mexico want people to vote against me. But I’ll tell you, the Mexican people like me," he said.

The government in Mexico City is holding off on engaging the Trump campaign directly until he becomes the nominee, said Francisco Guzman, chief of staff to Mexican President Enrique Pena Nieto. Speaking with reporters on March 1, Guzman said the government plans to communicate with the campaigns of the nominees once they’re chosen and try to dispel what it considers misinformation about Mexico and Mexicans.
Campaign Rhetoric

The public-relations offensive now under way includes using news outlets and social media to highlight the strides Mexicans have made in business, the arts and academia in the U.S., said Paulo Carreno, the former spokesman of Citigroup Inc.’s Mexico unit who oversees the country’s international branding strategy.

Promoting Mexico in the U.S., from its scholars to artists, is meant "not to influence an election, but a whole generation and those that follow," Carreno said in an e-mailed response to questions. "The strategy will be an important anchor in our consular network in the country."

While Guzman said the administration understands the difference between campaign rhetoric and governing proposals, Pena Nieto this month in an interview with newspaper El Universal compared Trump’s rhetoric to that of Adolf Hitler and Benito Mussolini.

The urgency and their numbers underscore why Mexican-Americans can have an impact.

About 12 million Mexicans live in the U.S. and almost half lack legal status, according to a November study by the Pew Research Center. About 2.7 million legal Mexican permanent residents of the U.S. are eligible to apply to become citizens, according to The New Americans Campaign, a nonpartisan group that helps people access naturalization services.

Ali Noorani, executive director of National Immigration Forum, a non-partisan Washington-based policy group that advocates on behalf of immigrants, said Trump’s rhetoric and proposals have spurred interest in registering to vote among Mexican immigrant communities, particularly in Nevada, Colorado and Virginia.

Boosting turnout among immigrant voters could help tip the scale in the election, said Julian Zelizer, a professor of history and public affairs at Princeton University.

"Trump is exactly the kind of Republican who could mobilize legalized immigrant voters and others sympathetic to liberalized immigration policy," Zelizer said in an e-mailed response to questions. "This has been one issue where he has not been very vague and taking an extremely tough and aggressive stance. I suspect that if he was the nominee you could see very high turnout in certain states for Democrats as a result of this issue."

Now or never: Trump's 'wall' talk sparks migrant rush on U.S.-Mexico border

Can't really win.

"We're signing into law a bill to allow people to stay, and then building a wall and saying no more" = rush to border, and continuing trickle.
"NAFTA" = rush to border.
"9/11, We're worried about terrorists, we're super upping enforcement along the border!" = rush to border.
"We're not deporting! Path to citizenship! Si se puedo!" = rush to border.
"We're closing it all down! Deporting! Stay out!" = rush to border.

I wonder if someone ever had the idea of "new minefield testing areas randomly placed along the border!" and if that would change the equation.

Although, there was some success with "OMG! The market's crashing, rampant unemployment, and there aren't any more jobs for anyone!" = slow walk to border from both sides.
So maybe going full retard socialism where no one works, no one has jobs, and everyone relies on government helicopter cash, food, and phones, as long as you have a u.s. passport, might keep people out...

Record 61 million immigrants in U.S., 15.7 million illegally

Fast Facts About Illegal Immigration
Inform
00:00 / 01:01 Video

There are a record 61 million immigrants and their American-born children in the United States, including an estimated 15.7 million illegally here, according to a new analysis of 2015 U.S. Census data.

The estimated number of undocumented immigrants is one of the highest ever.

The analysis by the Center for Immigration Studies found that 45.3 million, or three-fourths of the 61 million, are legal immigrants and their children. The report notes that the so-called "Gang of Eight" immigration bill supported by GOP
Sen. Marco Rubio would have doubled that number of legal immigrants.

"These numbers raise profound questions that are seldom even asked: What number of immigrants can be assimilated? What is the absorption capacity of our schools, health care system, infrastructure, and labor market? What is the effect on the environment and quality of life from significantly increasing the nation's population density?" wrote Steven Camarota, the Center's director of Research.

"With 45 million legal immigrants and their young children already here, does it make sense to continue admitting more than one million new legal permanent immigrants every year?" he added.

His report found that the normal pattern of immigration to the United States changed after 1970. At that time, there were 13.5 million immigrants, or about one in 15 U.S. residents.

But since 2000, the number of immigrants has increased 18.4 million, and now nearly one of every five U.S. residents are immigrants.

"The number of immigrants and their young children grew six times faster than the nation's total population from 1970 to 2015 — 353 percent vs. 59 percent," he added.

Camarota dug deep into Census Current Population Survey and other data to determine his estimate of 15.7 million illegals in the United States.

"Our best estimate is that in 2015 there were 5.1 million children with at least one illegal immigrant parent. Taken together, the best available evidence indicates that there were a total of 15.7 million illegal immigrants and their U.S.-born children in the adjusted December 2015 CPS, accounting for 25.7 percent of the 61 million immigrants and their children in the country," he said.

He broke the figures down state by state and Camarota said that "the number of immigrants and their minor children from 1970 to 2015 has been nothing short of astonishing." Some examples:

-- In Georgia, this population grew 3,058 percent (from 55,000 to 1.75 million), 25 times faster than the overall state population.

-- In Nevada, this population grew 3,002 percent (from 26,000 to 821,000), six times faster than the overall state population.

-- In North Carolina, this population grew 2,937 percent (from 47,000 to 1.43 million), 30 times faster than the overall state population.

Number of illegal immigrant families at southern border surging, data shows

The number of illegal immigrant families and unaccomanpied minors apprehended at the U.S.-Mexico border has soared in recent months, according to statistics released Wednesday by the federal government.

According to U.S. Customs and Border Protection (CBP), 27,754 unaccompanied children were taken into custody by border officials during the six months ending March 31 — the first six months of fiscal year 2016. That's a 78 percent increase from the 15,616 apprehended in the corresponding time frame last year.

Similarly, CBP reported that 32,117 family units — defined as at least one child traveling with at least one adult — were apprehended in the first six months of fiscal year 2016, a 131 percent increase over the 13,913 family units caught in fiscal year 2015.

The CBP statistics were first reported by The Hill.

The numbers have raised the specter of another border surge similar to the summer of 2014, when thousands of unaccompanied minors swarmed the border, overwhelming law enforcment and humanitarian workers alike.

However, Jens Manuel Krogstad of the Pew Research Center noted that most of the apprehensions occurred in December and January, before the Obama administration approved a series of raids targeting immigrant families.

"Since then," Krogstad writes, "monthly border apprehensions have dropped below 2014 levels."

Kevin Appleby of the Center for Immigration Studies told the Hill that several factors may be driving the increased migration, including ongoing violence in Central America and new techniques used by human traffickers to skirt a crackdown by Mexican authorities.

"Our policy of deterrence is clearly not working no matter how much we pay the Mexican government to do our dirty work," Appleby said.

Last year, Congress passed a $750 million package aimed at stabilzing El Salvador, Guatemala and Hondurs in an effort to slow the flood of illegal immigration.

Illegal immigrant numbers skyrocket at Mexican border
Mike Lillis

Child migration is surging again.

The number of families and unaccompanied children apprehended on the southern border has skyrocketed this year, according to new figures from the Obama administration.

The numbers, compiled by the U.S. Customs and Border Protection (CBP), reveal that child migration is on par with 2014 levels, when a wave of kids — thousands of them unaccompanied — arrived at the southern border.

The surge of illegal immigration quickly swamped border authorities, immigration courts and health and humanitarian workers, while sparking a political battle on Capitol Hill over the cause and proper response to the crisis.

The new figures raise the specter of another increase this summer. That would almost certainly inflame another political showdown in a volatile presidential year in which the issues of race, immigration and border security have been pronounced — particularly due to the hard-line enforcement approach adopted by the presumptive GOP nominee Donald TrumpDonald TrumpChristie to lead Trump White House transition team Sanders slams Trump in Atlantic City Poll: Voters don't trust Trump to fill Supreme Court vacancy MORE.

Through the first six months of fiscal 2016, which ended on March 31, border officials apprehended 27,754 unaccompanied children, the CBP reported — a 78 percent jump from the 15,616 apprehended in 2015, and just shy of the 28,579 apprehended in 2014.

For family units, which consist of at least one child traveling with at least one adult, the increase was even more dramatic. In the first six months of 2016, 32,117 families were apprehended, the CBP reported — an increase of 131 percent from the 2015 figure (13,913) and 62 percent from the 2014 figure (19,830).

Kevin Appleby, director of international migration policy at the Center for Migration Studies, proposed several reasons for the increase. For one, the violence plaguing Central America — particularly El Salvador, Honduras and Guatemala — still exists, he noted, sending people fleeing north for their lives.

"The forces driving the migration are still strong," he said.

Appleby also suggested the human smugglers accompanying the migrants might have adapted to a crackdown by Mexican authorities in 2015, allowing the smugglers to elude capture and get more people to the U.S. border.

Appleby, along with many other human rights advocates, has been critical of Mexico's policing efforts, and the Obama administration's support of them. They fear that many people eligible for asylum in the United States never make it that far, but are instead returned by Mexican authorities to dangerous conditions in Central America.

"Our policy of deterrence is clearly not working no matter how much we pay the Mexican government to do our dirty work," Appleby said Wednesday.

It's unclear if the 2016 increases will continue into the summer and rival the surge total of 2014. The Obama administration has scrambled to prevent a similar crisis since then, and Congress last year approved $750 million to help stabilize El Salvador, Guatemala and Honduras in hopes of slowing the flow of people trying to come to the U.S.

In January, the Homeland Security Department tried another deterrent strategy, launching a series of controversial raids on scores of families that had arrived in the 2014 surge and putting them in line for deportation.

Jens Manuel Krogstad, of the Pew Research Center, noted Wednesday that the strategy might have worked.

"This fiscal year, family and unaccompanied children apprehensions spiked in December 2015, and in January 2016 the Department of Homeland Security launched immigration raids targeting families," Krogstad wrote on Pew's blog. "Since then, monthly border apprehensions have dropped below 2014 levels."

Man deported 4 times found again in Delaware

A man who had been deported from the United States at least four times since 2000 -- each time following an arrest in Delaware -- was arrested here again in February, this time with a bag of cash, according to a document made public by the FBI.

Wilmington police officers suspected that Richard Diaz-Garcia, a citizen of the Dominican Republic, was in the United States illegally after they arrested him Feb. 1, according to court records.

Officers seized $5,000 that Diaz-Garcia held in a black bag, and $393 that he had in his pockets. The seizure took place on Brennan Road in Newark, according to the FBI document. Wilmington Police spokeswoman Andrea Janvier did not respond to requests for comment about the arrest, and why it reportedly took place in Newark.

FBI spokesman David Fitz did not provide any details about the case, saying the Wilmington FBI office has been "extremely busy."

Officers contacted the Dover office of Immigration and Custom Enforcement after the arrest, and Diaz-Garcia was then transferred to federal custody, according to court documents.

Diaz-Garcia's criminal record in Delaware stretches back to 1999 when he was arrested on drug charges, and pleaded guilty to possession with intent to distribute cocaine, and resisting arrest. He was deported to the Dominican Republic in 2000.

In October 2002, New Castle County Police detained Diaz-Garcia and charged him with resisting arrest. Days later, his 2000 charge of "intent to distribute" cocaine was “corrected to read possession of cocaine," according to court records. Federal officials deported him once again in December 2002 after he had been transported to Louisiana.

Between 2004 and 2008, the drama played out at least twice again -- detained in Delaware and then deported.

He pleaded guilty to the charge of re-entry after deportation by an aggravated felon in January 2007. On May 24, 2007, Chief District Judge Gregory M. Sleet sentenced him to time served -- or about six months.

Less than a year later, Diaz-Garcia was back, with Delaware State Police arresting him in May for shoplifting men's cologne from the Sears department store on Kirkwood Highway.

Again, he was sent back to the Dominican Republic.

STORY: Obama administration spent $18B on immigration enforcement

STORY: DOJ to determine charges in the death of Howard High School student

The News Journal chronicled Diaz-Garcia's multiple attempts to stay in Delaware in a 2008 report.

Diaz-Garcia kept returning to Delaware because he had a girlfriend and two children in the First State, his attorneys said in 2008. Diaz-Garcia feared for his family's well-being, he said in 2008, and came back after getting panicked calls from his wife.

Court records show that Diaz-Garcia had been caught trying to enter the United States as a stowaway on a vessel that docked at the port in Elizabeth, New Jersey.

"I can assure you if he shows up in Delaware again ... he will end up in federal court," said U.S. Attorney for Delaware Colm F. Connolly in 2008.

There screwed in El Paso, Texas because we have the highest apprehension rate in the US/Mexico border. This is were the illegals get caught and deported. Bu the way, our federal agents are 78% Hispanic origin. We also have alot of people who pay their league fees to become resident aliens, which eventually leads to citizenship after several years. This guy from El Salvador is usually part of the MS-13 Gang. Those people have that tattoo and they are automatically rejected for entry. Thats probably why he says their screwed. We don't need those ******** in Texas.

Do you think that a Trump presidency will have an adverse effect on *legal* immigration?

See, I think this guy was saying "all Latinos are screwed" because he wants to foster race-based hatred of Trump; and he wants to spread the idea that enforcing the immigration laws is an attack on all Latinos - regardless of immigration status.

ok. I'm not a us citizen but climbing and crossing the boarder is the easiest way for some to get green card and other benefits..

while we legal immigrant need to do all the paper works and spent thousand of $$$ just to come here in u.s.a

just to be fair with legal immigrant I think they need to tighten up or higher up that wall..

though I'm not judging those people but let's just fair and square with those who follow immigration law.

Does the US have anything like this? This kind of informational campaign? I've never seen it.
