Probably the same thing we have done for the rest of America’s history..
Give themselves a court date and if they don’t show up issue a warrant. From that point any interaction they have with authorities gets them arrested, and likely deported.. since they skipped their court date.
I really think people are oblivious to the actual logistics and cost involved in jailing people..it cost 40k per person, per year on average to jail an American..
I bet a child is twice that..

I’m not sure you can legally jail someone who hasn’t committed a crime, and by actually reporting at a port of entry and doing the paperwork, they haven’t committed anything resembling a crime..
Plus it only benefits them to show up for their court date.. won’t be getting asylum otherwise obviously..
So what is it called when you want to jail people who have not committed a crime.
I never knew that claiming asylum nullifies the illegal entry issue. I guess I didn't think such a law would exist in a thinking society.

The problem with your idea is liberal states and cities won’t arrest them because they don’t follow the Constitution nor do they cooperate with the Federal Government so nothing you said would ever happen or matter.

I don't think liberal states help anyone. Illinois just raised several taxes and fees yesterday (incl 19 cents @ gallon for gas), but the new governor and liberal legislature can't say how the huge $$$ windfall will be invested back into the state.

Bond hearing that makes no sense. They couldn't afford a bond and if they could they would simply apply for citizenship. The trick to releasing someone on bond is make sure it's enough money so they return for their court date.
So question becomes how much money would it require to get illegals to show up for court?

Illegals cross the border and then start filing what are called "defensive" asylum claims.
The system is being scammed and manipulated.
We need a very clear law that if you enter this country illegally you can not file for asylum.
If you cross the border illegally that should be enough evidence to the court to completely deny bail.
