Mexican president thanks Biden for not building any more border wall, pushes for amnesty
The administration will begin construction this week on filling wall gaps in Arizona

President Biden said "we cannot wall ourselves off from shared problems" following a meeting with the leaders of Mexico and Canada on Tuesday.

Mexican President Andres Manuel Lopez Obrador on Tuesday praised President Biden for being the first U.S. leader "in a very long time" that has not built any additional wall at the U.S.-Mexico border, while also pushing for an amnesty for Mexican illegal immigrants — just as the Biden administration is scrambling to put the brakes on a two-yearlong migrant crisis.

"You are the first president of the United States in a very long time that has not built even one meter of wall," Lopez Obrador told Biden at the North American Leaders' Summit in Mexico City. "And we thank you for that, sir, although some might not like it, although the conservatives don’t like it."

The Biden administration halted the Trump-era project to build construction of a wall along the southern border — of which over 400 miles were built during the prior administration.

The legitimate powers of government extend to such acts only as are injurious to others. But it does me no injury for my neighbor to say there are twenty gods, or no god. It neither picks my pocket nor breaks my leg.

Then solutions should be shared, also.  The problem is the US is a 21st century Republic and south of our border are 20th century socialist/dictatorship countries.  The US is a horseless carriage while south of the border are countries with horse drawn carriages.  These countries aren't the least bit interested in sharing solutions, only in the US taking their problems - and so is Biden. :thud:
