		 New Mexico rep to introduce bill offering asylum to Canadian truckers protesting vaccine mandates 
Rep. Yvette Herrell (R-N.M.) said on Saturday that she would be introducing legislation that would grant temporary asylum to those involved in the Canadian trucker protests. 
 
Not really Shocking

 "Temporary asylum"--wow.  Maybe that's what we should grant to all the illegals, then send them back to wherever they came from when the vaccine mandates are ended.

		 Yvette Herrell, like many Trumplicans, scaremongered against asylum seekers at the southern border, saying they were bringing COVID and "other infectious diseases". But now she wants to grant asylum to antivax Canadians.  
The level of racism that permeates the GOP is astounding.

 Actually, 90% of the Canadian Truckers are vaccinated.  And its just temporary asylum.  And it would be legal.  Temporary asylum for illegals would be OK, so long as they would be returned to their country as would the Canadian Truckers.  Is that racist?  Oh . . . right . . . whatever you don't like is racist.

 I’m not the one complaining about people claiming asylum from one direction and inviting them from the other. 
I don’t believe that relief from vaccination is a qualifying cause for asylum and we require travelers entering the USA to be fully vaccinated.

 I'm not complaining about it either.  Don't know who is complaining about people legitimately claiming asylum.  Sure are a lot of complaints about illegal border crossings.  I believe that most "Trumpsters" were happy about Trump's deal with Mexico to have asylum claimers wait there untill they were granted asylum.  And a lot of folks might have been happy to grant some TEMPORARY asylum then returned.  Your mixing and matching is a bit off kilter.

And a lot of folks might have been happy to grant some TEMPORARY asylum then returned.  Your mixing and matching is a bit off kilter.

 Are you referring to the Remain in Mexico Policy requiring asylum seekers to stay in Mexico while they await their immigration hearings. rather than until asylum is granted, that's correct.  I suspected that I didn't get it quite right, but was too lazy to get it specifically correct.  The correction does not change the point I was making.
