FROM pamelageller.com: Mexico’s president Enrique Peña Nieto sent out a message to so-called migrants from his country who are now living in America – code for illegals – that said this: We’ll shelter you from President Donald Trump’s deportation storm.
Cupcake, meet White House gun. It’s almost laughable.
Now how would that work, exactly?
Peña Nieto’s remarks came after Trump signed executive orders curbing illegal immigration and tightening border security.
His words, at a widely reported press conference:
“Where there is a Mexican migrant at risk that requires our support, your country should be there,” he said, speaking to the nations of Mexico, about the role of Mexico in fighting for migrant rights.
“Our communities are not alone,” he went on. “The Mexican government will provide them with the legal advice, which guarantees the protection they require.”
In other words, Peña Nieto is trying to insert his own policies into the United States, over the will of the American people, despite the sovereign status of the United States and the governing doctrines of the U.S. Constitution, and regardless of Trump’s executive powers.
From NBC News:
“Specifically, he said, ‘the 50 Mexican consulates in the United States will become authentic advocates for the rights of migrants.’ He didn’t provide details on what he said he wanted them to do.
“Peña Nieto is scheduled to meet with Trump next Tuesday to discuss trade and immigration. But after Trump signed the two orders — one to begin steps to fund Trump’s promised wall along the U.S.-Mexican border and the other to significantly boost the U.S. Border Patrol — Peña Nieto said he was consulting with Mexican officials in Washington to decide on ‘the next steps.’”
