Predictably so, Democrats are yet again blaming President Donald Trump for the current out-of-control Southern Border catastrophe, when, in fact, it was Joe Biden who set it all in motion the day after he became President with what was effectively a global “come one come all” open invitation which, as a direct consequence, triggered what has evolved or rather devolved into a mammoth mass invasion… the largest illegal incursion this country, or any other country for that matter, has ever experienced or witnessed, with over 7-million intruders and counting, in just the last two years alone. Indeed, the recorded daily estimate averages around 8000 foreigners who have been chaotically storming the Southern Border and overwhelming Border States and our Border Patrol Agents as they, undermanned and overworked, attempt to process so-called asylum claims, chase down got-aways, and/or fish the lifeless bodies of men, women, and children from the Rio Grande on a daily basis.
Needless to say, numbers eclipsing the population of numerous States in our Union and with expected estimates to surpass 10 million by the end of 2023 as a result of the elimination of Title 42, which transpired on May 11th, 2023, at 11:59 pm.
However, just hours before Title 42 was set to expire, in a somewhat minor partial reprieve or relief -(if you can even call it that)- for Border States and Border Patrol Agents, in an effort to stem and pear down the anticipated burgeoning surge of illegal aliens rushing our Southern Border, Judge T. Kent. Wetherell ll issued a temporary two-week restraining order (TRO) that blocked Biden from releasing illegal aliens from Border Patrol custody without any "Notice To Appear" (NTAs) court date preconditions or a means by which our government can track and trace them, thereby, in the interim, derailing one of the Democrat's subversive schemes to flood the nation with undocumented migrants, you know, future Democrat voters, as they disappear and meld into the interior of the country.
Judge Wetherell stated, "It is inconceivable that the Biden administration waited until yesterday to formulate this policy, particularly since they have known for quite some time that the Title 42 Order was going to expire tonight."
The truth is, as Democrats well know, and thanks in large part or rather in full measure to President Trump's America First Border Security Policies, we had a never-before-seen all-time historical record-low in not only illegal crossings but also in human sex trade trafficking and drug & fentanyl smuggling.
Nevertheless, despite President Trump's exceptionally successful Border security policies and measures, the number of people crossing the Southern Border has not just exponentially increased, but it has quite literally exploded since Biden seized Power and took office on January 20th, 2021, reaching unsustainable levels, and not because our immigration system is broken, but entirely because Democrats are not only in violation of their Oath Of Office, deliberately flouting Article IV Section 4 Of The United States Constitution with contemptuous disregard, but they are also refusing to enforce the numerous and rather effective immigration statutes and laws that are currently on the books.
And there's a cloak-and-dagger reason for that.
You see, during campaign season, we routinely, or maybe a better word to exemplify or characterize it would be "habitually," have to listen to politicians squawk and yodel out the same old tired one-liner lie that "our immigration system is broken," like a cassette player stuck on rewind, BUT here's the thing, our immigration system is not broken. That's an obvious discernible fallacy that anyone with a single sensible brain cell could and should be able to figure out after taking half a levelheaded millisecond to give it some realistic commonsensical, fact-based analysis and thought.
So why does the left parrot this lie? Is it because there are more foreigners who want to immigrate to this country than there are resources available to facilitate them, and therefore, at least according to Democrats, that somehow denotes or serves as an indication that our immigration system is kaput? Or is it just the agreed-upon contrived narrative used to cover a more clandestine and deleterious ulterior motive? Is it the former, or is it the latter? I believe it's the latter.
You see, in my opinion, we don't owe it to the millions of unvetted natives (from somewhere in the region of 190 various Nations, seven continents, and four hemispheres presently storming our Southern Border in breach of our sovereignty and violation of our laws) to upgrade our immigration system to meet their demands.
We do NOT owe these denizens anything.
How about this for a powerfully impressive and effective immigration system, finish building the damn fking wall as House Majority Republicans proposed and passed in their "Secure The Border Act" that passed along party lines, with 219 Republicans voting in favor to 213 Democrats voting against securing our Southern Border on May 11th, 2023 at 4:23 pm.
How about that for the ultimate cure-all to our purported broken immigration system?
Joe Biden has quite literally unlawfully licensed what is, without question, an unconstitutional government-sanctioned invasion at our Southern Border, and while America is one of the most charitable giving nations in the world, we, at this point in time, do not have the wherewithal and means by which to assist and facilitate the overwhelming onslaught of illegal immigrants rushing our border.
Our economy is in the throes of an economic downturn, and we are struggling to adequately care for our own; we can't afford mass amnesty, let alone lawless mass amnesty, not on this scale; it's unsustainable.
As is, our streets are crawling with homeless, destitute Americans, many of whom are veterans, courageous, heroic patriots, and warriors now living with the seen and unseen scars of war. Men and women who have selflessly sacrificed so much for so little to keep us safe, some paying the ultimate price with their lives and others coming home with not just missing limbs and broken bodies but with broken minds and spirits too, sacrificing their sanity for the love of country and fellow men. Many are barely hanging on by a thread while they struggle and suffer through PTSD on a day-to-day basis, and some on a minute-to-minute basis due to the unimaginable horrors of combat.
"We don't know them all, but we owe them all."
We owe them everything!
American veterans have taken the unimaginable, unbearable slings and arrows of war for us, for the sake, safety, and security of our nation's sovereignty and citizenry, only to come home from the battlefield to be thrown to the wayside, left homeless, hungry, and humiliated, discarded like worthless, disposable pieces of trash in Joe Biden's America, in order to make way for and to accommodate unvetted illegal migrants, the newly minted present and future Democrat voting bloc, who have done absolutely nothing in service of our country, but violate the very sovereignty that our now bereft and indigent GI's so bravely fought to defend and protect.
The idea that we owe millions of illegal Biden Border Crossers something, that their demand to be in the United States and cared for by the American taxpayer (while homeless, destitute American veterans starve) is somehow a right of passage, an entitlement, because their countries are economically fucked up, and they need jobs, is utterly insane.
We owe them nothing, and we owe our veterans everything.
I don't know what's in the water that Biden and Democrats are drinking, but the last time I checked, Americans need jobs too, and it's neither the American taxpayer's responsibility nor sovereign duty to employ and care for the global population; it's not our burden to bear, shoulder, fund, and/or fix their economies, particularly when our own is crumbling beneath our feet.
BUT... hold your horses, not so fast, homie... undocumented migrants are good for our economy; we need them; they will do the jobs Americans won't do, so say Democrats...
Hogwash! That may be true for out-of-touch left-wing coastal elites but not for Middle America, the heartland and stronghold for hard-working blue-collar Republicans.
Strange, isn't it, how the left's "no one is above the law" mantra dissipates and goes out the window, the front door, the back door, and the chimney the second Democrat's surreptitious agenda demands it.
Let's let anarchy ring, shall we? You see, going by the Democrat's supposition, the hypothesis that "our economy needs illegal immigrants," then presumably, based on those standards and all that "equal application" of lawlessness, our economy needs pimps and drug dealers, too… right? I mean, they work and/or employ people, and they spend and put money back into the economy, too! Surely we wouldn't want to dissuade them from selling illegal drugs, or pimping out women, now would we, silly me; our economy needs them, don't you know... Democrats said so; they have families to feed, too.
Illegal immigration is illegal, illegal, illegal, and oh, did I say, illegal, as is drug dealing, as is pimping and prostitution; what part of that is difficult to understand?
Legislators, Judges and Justices, The President Of The United States, and his appointed cabinet, including bureaucrats within the Executive Branch agencies, either apply the law equally and as written according to and in compliance with statutes and our Constitution, the Founding Document upon which they all swore an Oath to defend, protect, and uphold, or they respectfully bow out, resign from office, or face impeachment and/or other legal consequences as prescribed by the Constitution.
You see, in my opinion, the invasion at our Southern Border isn't really about a broken immigration system; it's about manipulating our election system; whether those on the left care to admit it or not, it is glaringly evident that Democrats are deliberately exploiting large open sectors of our Southern Border for politically motivated electoral purposes.
With a little under two years left of Biden's failed Presidency, Democrats are stepping up the pace, hustling, scampering, and scurrying, capitalizing and encouraging millions to rush our Southern Border in order to build a new voting bloc, whether they eventually become future legal voters or whether they are current and future illegal voters. Democrats don't particularly discriminate or distinguish between legal and illegal when it serves their purposes and agenda, and everyone knows it, especially and conspicuously in light of, evidenced by, and owing to their repeated, albeit failed efforts to 1) legalize voting rights for illegal aliens in Democrat-run States and 2) to federalize election laws thereby enabling them to eliminate voter ID requirements in Republican States, hence making it easier to cheat.
Why go to all this trouble if it weren't about electioneering?
Wouldn't it be far easier to run a merit-based campaign?
Well, of course, it would, that is, if you believe in the Constitution and America's founding principles, but as most know, Democrats despise the Constitution; therefore, they can't win elections the old-fashioned lawfully prescribed way by abiding by the 15th, the 19th, the 24th, and The 26th Amendments to The United States Constitution that affords only United States citizens the Right to vote, as their progressively regressive Socialist policies suck, are detrimental, and wholly antithetical to our capitalistic free market economy where small government governs at the behest and by the consent of the governed in accordance with the Declaration of Independence in that "governments are instituted among men, deriving their just powers from the consent of the governed."
Absolute Power motivates Democrat leaders to get up in the morning; it drives and feeds their passionately despotic souls and subversive agenda. They are not roused by some sort of altruistic, philanthropic desire to help humanity because most of them are self-serving, opportunistic narcissists.
Make no mistake; the Southern Border invasion is about an electoral power grab!
