Summary
Trump Just ENDED Asylum For Central Americans. In a major escalation of of the border situation Donald Trump's administration has moved forward with a new rule that will make those who come through a "third country" to claim asylum ineligible.
Many people have questioned why asylum seekers would skip over several different countries, especially Mexico which has offered asylum in the past, to come to the US. The answer seems obvious in that the US is a prosperous and very safe nation. Many of these people risk their lives to make it to the US only to get turned back due to dubious asylum claims.
While Trump has been working to disincentivize illegal immigration and secure the border, Democrats have obstructed, mocked, and refused to provide funding to deal with the crisis. Even to this day the far left democrats known as "the squad" refuse to vote in line with Democrats on border bills.
Faux social justice outrage is leading the obstruction from the Democrats and resulting in an ever increasing crisis.
But will Trump's move pass legal challenges?

| 0:00.0 | We have major breaking news today. Donald Trump will end asylum protections for central Americans. |
| 0:06.9 | This is huge. I'm surprised we're not seeing more conversations about that. |
| 0:10.8 | Nope, let me stop. I am not surprised. This isn't the subject being talked about mostly in the media |
| 0:16.4 | because they're too busy talking about Trump's tweets. Now we can get into the whole 4D chess argument |
| 0:22.5 | whether or not Trump tweets out on purpose to manipulate the media into ignoring stories, |
| 0:26.4 | but we have a big story right here. The end of asylum protections for central Americans. |
| 0:31.1 | Now the big argument being made is that if people are in central America and they're claiming |
| 0:36.0 | asylum, why don't they stay in Mexico? In fact, Mexico had actually offered asylum to many people |
| 0:41.6 | in one of the first migrant caravans and they turned it down. There's even a video of them saying, |
| 0:46.5 | no, I can't remember, it's been a while. Which to them on video is saying they want to keep going |
| 0:50.4 | north to America. If you're trying to acclaim asylum because you're in fear of your life, wouldn't |
| 0:55.0 | you stay in the place that's welcoming you and offering you asylum status or refugee status? |
| 1:01.3 | So let's take a look from this story from the AP. We also have some more stories about the ice |
| 1:06.6 | raids that didn't come. I want to talk about potentially Donald Trump's motivations for why he's |
| 1:12.1 | doing the things he's doing including announcing ice raids as well as putting out these weird tweets. |
| 1:19.2 | So let's go through the first story. Now before we get started, head over to timcast.com slash |

| 1:26.8 | and a physical address. But of course, the best thing you can do, share this video. YouTube, |
| 1:30.9 | D-Ranks, this kind of stuff, they are sharing it, they're suggesting it less and less and less. |
| 1:35.6 | So I rely on you to share these videos across social media if you think they're worth listening to. |
| 1:40.7 | From the Associated Press, the Trump administration on Monday moved to end asylum protections for |
