Schumer, Zuckerberg Lobby Use Horse Videos to Denounce Title 42 Migration Barrier
Pro-amnesty Democrats and their pro-
migration corporate allies are exploiting the
media uproar over horse-mounted officers at
the border to demand even easier
migration into the U.S. economy.
“We’ve all seen these horrible images coming from our southern border … Images of Haitian migrants being hit with whips and other forms of physical violence is completely unacceptable,” Senate Majority Leader Chuck Schumer said in a September 21 floor speech — just one day after he insisted that employers need more migrants.
“The images turn your stomach — it must be stopped, this kind of violence,” he continued, just before demanding the anti-epidemic 2020 Title 42 border rules be lifted to let migrants enter the United States:
So I urge President [Joe] Biden and Secretary [Alejandro] Mayorkas to immediately put a stop to these expulsions, and to end this Title 42 policy at our southern border. We cannot continue these hateful and xenophobic Trump policies that disregard our refugee laws. We must allow asylum seekers to present their claims at our ports of entry, and be afforded due process [in the United States]… the horrible treatment of these innocent people who have come to the border must stop immediately.
According to NBC News:
The Department of Homeland Security document also said the DHS Office of Professional Responsibility, the agency’s internal watchdog, is investigating an incident in which a Border Patrol agent on horseback in Del Rio, Texas, grabbed a Haitian migrant by the shirt.
Many of the Haitian migrants have trekked up from the Darian Gap jungle in Panama, where many migrants are killed or raped by bandits.
In 2021, almost one million migrants have been turned away at the border by the Title 42 rules established by President Donald Trump in 2020. Without the rule, Biden’s deputies would have likely allowed them into the United States, where they would have pressured down wages, pushed up rent, and crowded the K-12 schools needed by the children of blue-collar Americans.
Nonetheless, Biden’s deputies are expected to allow roughly two million migrants — including many of the Haitian border crossers — into the United States in 2021. The inflow will deliver one migrant for every two Americans born during the year.
The videos are “deeply troubling, including the inappropriate use of what appear to be whips by Border Patrol officers on horseback to intimidate migrants,” said a September 30 statement by House Speaker Rep. Nancy Pelosi. “Any acts of aggression or violence cannot be tolerated and must be investigated.”
“What I saw depicted about those individuals on horseback treating human beings the way they were, was horrible,” Vice President Kamala Harris said Tuesday.
“If [border agents] cannot physically detain or deter illegal aliens, you are ceding the immigration laws to the individual illegal alien,” countered Robert Law, the director of regulatory affairs and policy for the Center for Immigration Studies.
By denouncing border officers’ routine enforcement of the nation’s popular border curbs, “you’re turning Border Patrol agents into the equivalent of Walmart greeters, or as tourist guides directing the illegal aliens on their way into the interior of the country.” he told Breitbart News.
The horse controversy is intended to distract the public from the obvious chaos caused by Biden’s loose border policies, Law said:
The entire thing is completely manufactured and it’s orchestrated … [by] this perverse coalition of anti-borders left and cheap-labor right who all work off at the same talking points and they go on the same cable shows, and they get written about the same media outlets, and they repeat the same lie over and over and over and over again.
The pro-migration progressives are eager to lash the U.S. border officers, Law said, even as they also cover up the deaths, rapes, and harms caused to the migrants during their long treks to the side-doors that leftists are opening at the U.S. border:
They would rather criticize the hardworking, patriotic career Border Patrol agents than ever say something negative about the cartels and the coyotes who are involved in this very dangerous and very cruel, [migrant-]smuggling operation … Those [border agents] are being portrayed today as the villain, not the cartels and the coyotes who are smuggling these people for exorbitant fees, and are using them as a distraction mechanism to flood our country with drugs that are killing many thousands Americans.
The Democratic politicians’ statements match the language and demands pushed by Mark Zuckerberg’s FWD.us advocacy group for West Coast investors. The group is pushing for greater immigration of migrant consumers, workers, and renters.
“The horrible treatment of Haitians and other predominantly Black people seeking asylum—including the awful violence inflicted upon them by Federal agents … is an urgent failure that demands immediate action,” said a September 20 statement FWD.us. The statement continued:
Title 42 was wrong in 2020. It is wrong today in 2021—and it is wrong for the Biden administration to appeal the decision declaring Title 42 last week and use this as a pretext for ramping up deportation flights of thousands of Haitians seeking asylum.
Zuckerberg’s FWD.us is funding many pro-migration and pro-amnesty groups around the United States. It is also playing the leading role in pushing the Senate to include multiple amnesties in the pending $3.5 trillion budget bill. That plan was damaged September 19 when the Senate’s debate referee, the parliamentarian, ruled that the amnesties cannot be included in a budget bill.
The FWD.us membership of West Coast investors is pushing for the amnesty because they stand to gain from more cheap labor, government-aided consumers, and room-sharing renters. The network has funded many astroturf campaigns, urged Democrats not to talk about the economic impact of migration, and manipulated and steered coverage by the TV networks and the print media.
The establishment’s media is protecting Biden because his border policies make the establishment look bad, said Law.
They are using the border enforcement videos “to help shift the narrative,” from the chaotic Haitian landing, he said. “You cannot distinguish the talking points of a liberal politician or a cheap labor business guy on cable news from what you see in a lot of [journalists’] print articles … They’re all on the same team.”
Many polls show that labor migration is deeply unpopular because it damages ordinary Americans’ career opportunities, cuts their wages, and raises their rents. Migration also curbs their productivity, shrinks their political clout, widens regional wealth gaps, and wrecks their democratic, compromise-promoting civic culture.
For many years, a wide variety of pollsters have shown deep and broad opposition to labor migration and the inflow of temporary contract workers into jobs sought by young U.S. graduates. This pocketbook opposition is multiracial, cross-sex, non-racist, class-based, bipartisan, rational, persistent, and recognizes the solidarity Americans owe to each other.

Kamala Harris indicates that it’s time for heads to roll
The news from the southern border regarding the Haitian invasion is not good. More than ten thousand Haitians are camping within Texas and, allegedly, tens of thousands more are lined up in Mexico heading to the U.S. (with help from the Mexican government, according to rumor). For now, the ones already in America have created a squalid encampment, America’s border services are completely overwhelmed, and the media have whipped up hysteria about border patrol agents on horseback.
This last story came about because the same idiots who confuse a rope pull at NASCAR with a noose saw the reins used on horses and thought that they were whips. Kamala Harris has vowed to get to the bottom of this and find who’s responsible. She seems to have forgotten that she’s responsible.
First off, let’s get one thing clear. As far as the Democrats are concerned, what’s happening at the border is not a “crisis,” which assumes that it’s a problem that needs to be addressed and stopped. On the contrary, this is exactly what the Democrat party wants.
Democrats, from Biden on down, could stop all of this instantly by telling people who arrive that they will be deported and then finishing Trump’s wall. Instead, the Biden administration stopped Trump’s useful wall and is sending hundreds of thousands of illegal aliens to swing states and red states. It doesn’t take a genius to know what’s going on. Tucker has a good summary of the disaster for America that the Biden administration is deliberately fomenting:
But back to Kamala. It was back in March that Biden handed to Kamala the responsibility for the burgeoning chaos at the Southern border:
Aside from flying to Latin America, where she made an incredibly poor showing because she is now and always has been as dumb as a rock, in the ensuing six months, Kamala has done nothing regarding the border.
However, she was finally stirred from her stupor when the media insisted that horse reins were whips. Monica Showalter has covered that blend of ignorance and useful propaganda. No matter how wrongheaded the story, the racism aspect forced Kamala to say something:
Kamala’s ignorance there is remarkable. First, and most obviously, she’s wrong about the non-existent whips. Second, she’s wrong about the Haitians themselves. As Tucker pointed out, these people are not refugees in the traditional sense of the word. They have cell phones and the money to travel through Latin America, always looking for a more generous government. (I would say they’re analogous to the Muslims who flooded Europe when Merkel opened the gates in 2015.)
But there’s another remarkable level of ignorance at work (or denial) which Kamala’s claim that she’s looking for the culprit. Congresswoman Mary Miller (D. Ill.) perfectly summed up the issue:
Again, the bottom line is that the reason Kamala’s been hiding from the border and has been drawn out now only because it’s been turned into a “Black men whipped by White law enforcement” problem, is because everything is proceeding precisely as intended on America’s southern border.
One more thing: Tucker Carlson discussed the fact that, currently, only Texas governor Greg Abbott has the power to effect immediate change and, while he’s stopped the influx at one point along the border, he’s otherwise been passive. It’s an interesting discussion and worth a few minutes of your time:
Image: A vaccinated Kamala Harris, standing in the great outdoors, wears a mask as she promises to find the culprit who caused racism at the border. With her, everything is performative. Twitter screen grab.
‘A sea of misery of biblical proportions’
“A sea of misery of biblical proportions” is how Steve Bannon described the humanitarian crisis on the southern border.
Within hours of his inauguration, President Biden stopped the building of the border wall and made it clear to all comers around the world that our border was open. He invited all those migrants who have arrived from all over the world to enter what the left swears is an irreparably racist nation. Hmmm.
The nearly twenty thousand Haitians now baking in the Texas sun were invited, too. More are said to be on their way. Babies are being born in what is a nightmare of “Bidenvilles,” our very own refugee camps with all the filth and hunger that implies.
Most of those stranded there paid the cartels thousands of dollars to get here; the women and girls are routinely sexually abused on the journey and in the camps. Over a million people, 200k per month, have entered the US since Biden took office; who knows how many escaped notice, the “gotaways”?
As Press Secretary Jennifer Psaki confirmed, these migrants are not tested for covid nor are they required to be vaxxed. The American citizens of Del Rio, the Texan town under siege, are quarantined if they test positive but the illegal aliens are free to spread out into the interior of the country at taxpayer expense. The same goes for the soon-to-be hundreds of thousands of Afghan refugees who are being brought here unvetted, unvaxxed, un-covid tested. They are bringing diseases long ago eradicated here in the US.
There are hardly words to adequately describe the damage done to America since Biden took office, both here and among our soon-to-be former allies. It sure seems like he is doing China’s bidding. He gave up Bagram Air Base, one of the largest and most important for American security, left $90b worth of high-tech weaponry to the Taliban thus creating the biggest and best-armed terrorist state on the planet.
He may have committed treason with those ill-conceived moves as well as by opening the border. What does Blinken care about? If the Taliban government will be “inclusive and diverse.”
It seems like every member of this administration is both malevolent and incompetent, a lethal combination of character traits. Biden, Harris, Blinken, Sullivan, Mayorkas, et. al. are each mediocrities who have no business running anything, let alone the US. Between the disastrous withdrawal from Afghanistan and the Mogadishu on the border, they all have much blood on their hands. And having promoted the Camp-of-the-Saints invasion on the southern border and the complete takeover of it by the drug cartels, they are responsible, too, for the flood of Chinese-made fentanyl that is killing millions of Americans and the horrific abuse suffered by those girls and women who embark on the journey. Again, these people are truly malevolent and incompetent. They do not care about the lives they are destroying, those who have come hoping for permanent residence in the US and those whose towns and cities are being overrun by migrants determined to stay no matter what crimes they may feel entitled to commit.
“When one with honeyed words but evil mind
Persuades the mob, great woes befall the state.”
― Euripides, Orestes
The damage done to this country from the moment Biden took office is too terrible to contemplate. He has purposefully ended the energy independence Trump had achieved. He ended the sanctions on Russia re: Nord Stream. He has encouraged migrants from all over the world to come; no covid conditions are required or noted, no vetting. The border is a free-for-all nightmare for those being overrun and for the migrants themselves. Women are giving birth in the most unsanitary conditions imaginable. Biden wants amnesty for them all upon entry.
Biden is by design importing what the left believes will be a permanent Democrat voting bloc.
What else explains the administration’s obsession with vaxxing all Americans, even those with natural antibodies? Perhaps the covid fear-porn is all about culling the population as Dr.Michael Yeadon has been warning for over a year. What could be better for the Democrats than to replace an independent, freedom-loving population with millions of illiterate humans from the third world? These arrivals will provide cheap labor for our largest corporations, will take the taxpayer funded benefits they expect and have been promised, and leave the American middle class as bereft as the former middle class of Venezuela is bereft.
That is their plan and they are sticking to it. Sadly, the Republicans in Congress are, but for a few heroes, a waste of the space they were elected to fill. Clearly Biden deserves to be impeached for his numerous high crimes and misdemeanors perpetrated upon the American people, but the Republicans sit on their hands hoping their boat won’t be rocked, that their privilege will not be disrupted or their access to wealth interrupted.
In these past months the Biden administration has created many “seas of misery,” the cataclysm at the border being only one of them. The situation in Afghanistan is easily as horrific as what is happening here; the deaths of those thirteen young soldiers are on him as are the deaths of the people killed in the botched drone strike. Hundreds of thousands of businesses have been shuttered.
As Biden mandates vaccines for all and urges discrimination against the unvaxxed, hundreds of thousands of vaccine-related deaths and injuries are occurring but news of them is suppressed. Biden-caused inflation has made gasoline, meat and other food necessities unaffordable for millions of Americans. Several of our allies have been ill-treated to the point of estrangement. Foreign terrorism has been reinvigorated and armed. One wonders if the people who engineered Biden’s illegitimate win in 2020 are proud of themselves. Do they actually think their Cloward-Piven tactics will leave them unscathed? They probably shouldn’t rest on their laurels just yet.
“You only have power over people as long as you don't take everything away from them. But when you've robbed a man of everything, he's no longer in your power—he's free again.” Alexander Solzhenitsyn.
Biden, Pelosi, Schumer, and their ilk have made obvious their contempt for the American people and their willingness to strip them of their constitutionally guaranteed rights and freedoms. They seem unconcerned by our contempt for them but they be surprised by our resilience. It is true that far too many of us have succumbed to their carefully contrived fear of Covid, but people are waking up to their duplicity. The fact that these hundreds of thousands of migrants and refugees are arriving without any covid restrictions says it all. None of this is about anyone’s health. It’s all about power and control. May the left soon find itself in a sea of misery.

Wealth-X report: Billionaire
wealth surged during
pandemic
A new report from research firm Wealth-X found that the global COVID-19 pandemic has intensified the growth of social inequality and witnessed an unprecedented accumulation of wealth among the most privileged layers in society. For the first time in human history, the world had more than 3,000 billionaires in 2020.
This amounts to a 13.4 percent increase in billionaires since 2019, currently totaling 3,204 individuals, with a median wealth of $1.9 billion. Billionaires’ collective wealth swelled to $10 trillion, a 5.7 percent increase from 2019.
“Viewed in aggregate, the global pandemic delivered a windfall to billionaire wealth, boosted by the flood of monetary stimulus and swelling profits in key sectors that coined a new wave of younger, self-made billionaires,” the report said.
Billionaire wealth has increased steadily since 1990, but one-third of these wealth gains have occurred during the pandemic. US billionaire wealth increased nineteen-fold over the last 31 years, from an inflation adjusted $240 billion in 1990 to $4.7 trillion in 2021.
The parasitic growth in wealth was most pronounced in the United States, the center of world capitalism. The ranks of billionaires in all of North America grew by 17.5 percent from last year. In fact, North America’s 980 billionaires account for 30.6% of the world’s billionaires.
The US was the top billionaire country in 2020. According to a report from Americans for Tax Fairness (ATF) and the Institute for Policy Studies Program on Inequality (IPS), American billionaires have seen their collective wealth surge by 62 percent, approximately $1.8 billion, since March 18, 2020. Following North America, Asia saw its number of growing by 16.5%, for a grand total of 883. Asia’s billionaires saw their collective net worth grow to $2.6 trillion, a 7.5% increase.
The good fortune of this tiny layer of the world’s population over the past 18 months is all the more appalling when contrasted to the growing immiseration and impoverishment of billions of workers around the globe. As a few thousand billionaires amassed enormous sums of wealth, workers around the world lost $3.7 trillion in earnings during the pandemic, according to a report from the International Labor Organization (ILO).
The report estimated an 8.8 percent year-by-year decline in global working hours from 2019 to 2020, equivalent to 255 million full-time jobs. This is approximately four times greater than the recorded loss during the 2008-09 global financial crisis.
The lost working hours were due to massive cuts in working hours and unprecedented levels of job loss, impacting some 114 million people and their families. Significantly, 71 percent of these job losses came from “inactivity,” meaning at least 81 million people around the world left the labor market because they could not find work.
Women have been more adversely affected by the pandemic than men. Globally, employment losses for women stand at 5 percent, versus 3.9 percent for men. Women were much more likely than men to drop out of the labor market, most commonly due to childcare concerns. Younger workers have also been devastated. Employment fell by 8.7 percent among workers aged 15-24 years old, compared to 3.7 percent for adults. Generation Z, the oldest of whom is 23, has become the most unemployed generation and is on track to experience the same financial struggles as millennials.
In the US alone, the official poverty rate rose by 1.0 percent from 2019 to 2020, according to the US Census Bureau. The poverty rate grew to 11.4 percent, marking the first increase in the official poverty rate after five years of consecutive decline. In 2020, there were 37.2 million people in poverty, approximately 3.3 million more than in 2019.
At the same time, median household income in 2020 dropped by 2.9 percent from the previous year. This is the first statistically significant decline in median household income since 2011.
Over 86 million Americans have lost jobs, almost 38 million have been sickened by the virus, and over 675,000 have died from it. Between 2019 and 2020, the real median earnings of all workers fell by 1.2 percent. The total number of people reporting earnings decreased by about 3 million, while the number of full-time, year-round workers decreased by approximately 13.7 million.
The chief obstacle to solving the world’s burning social questions—whether the devastating impact of COVID-19 or the widespread growth of poverty—is the private profit interests of the capitalist ruling class. Every action these vultures have taken in response to the pandemic has been driven by the effort to protect the wealth and privileges of a few. To save lives and avert even further disaster, workers must fight for a policy based on the interests of the working class, the vast majority of society.
THE DEMOCRAT PARTY'S SOLUTION TO AMERICA'S JOBLESS, HOMELESS AND HOUSING CRISIS IS AMNESTY AND WIDER OPEN BORDERS.
For months, Democrats had hoped to slip an amnesty for illegal aliens enrolled and eligible for the Deferred Action for Childhood Arrivals (DACA) program, those employed on United States farms, those with Temporary Protected Status (TPS), and those deemed “essential workers” into their budget reconciliation package.
In August, a budget resolution framework put forth by Democrats revealed the amnesty would cost American taxpayers at least $107 billion.
After MacDonough’s ruling this week, Menendez revealed that Senate Democrats are planning a different style of amnesty — one that would give green cards, and eventually naturalized American citizenship, to any illegal alien who claims to have lived in the U.S. before January 1, 2010.
Menendez said Senate Democrats will soon make the argument to MacDonough for the amnesty’s inclusion in the budget reconciliation package so that it will only need majority support.
Today, anywhere from 11 to 22 million illegal aliens live in the U.S.
Chuck Schumer: Amnesty and Migrants Prevent Labor Shortages
Senate Majority Leader Sen. Chuck Schumer (D-NY) said Monday amnesty and migrants are needed to prevent labor shortages.
Schumer made his claim as many employers say they must raise wages for Americans in a national labor shortage.
Since early 2020, many Americans quit their jobs in low-wage sectors, such as bars, restaurants, retail stores and for home-healthcare contractors. That resulting labor shortage has boosted wages for millions of blue-collar Americans.
Schumer spoke the morning after the Senate’s debate referee, the Parliamentarian, blocked the Democrats from putting an amnesty for illegal migrants in a special funding bill. The bill can pass with only 51 votes instead of the usual 60 votes in the Senate.
Schumer said:
The last year and a half … have shown how vital our [illegal] immigrants have been to keeping our economy going during the time of crisis … We’re short of workers from one end of America to the other — one of the reasons? The Trump administration dramatically cut back on immigrants in this country. We need them. We need them in our labor force. We need them to continue American vitality. We need them because they’re part of the American dream.
Schumer sought to shame Americans into supporting the mass migration policies which allow New York’s employers and landlords to become reliant on plentiful and cheap legal immigrants and illegal migrants:
It’s estimated in my city [New York] by some that one-third of the healthcare workers at the height of COVID who risked their lives for us were immigrants. Having a strong law that helps our immigrants is vital. The American people understand that fixing our broken immigration system is a moral imperative [emphasis added] and an economic imperative.
Immigration reform has been one of the most important causes of my time in the Senate, and I will not stop fighting to achieve it.
Schumer blamed President Donald Trump’s 2020 curbs on migration for the labor shortage. But that admission indirectly credits Trump’s 2020 policy with helping to raise 2021 wages for millions of Americans.
Schumer’s claim the economy needs migrants is in direct contradiction to President Joe Biden’s inconsistent support for wage raises amid labor scarcity, technically known as “a tight labor market.”
Biden, age 78, explained his support for the long-standing and very popular goal of a tight labor market in a May 28 speech:
Rising wages aren’t a bug; they’re a feature. We want to get — we want to get something economists call “full employment.” Instead of workers competing with each other for jobs that are scarce, we want employees to compete with each other to attract wrk. We want the — the companies to compete to attract workers.
[…]
Well, wait until you see what happens when employers have to compete for workers. Companies like McDonald’s, Home Depot, Bank of America, and others — what do they have to do? They have to raise wages to attract workers. That’s the way it’s supposed to be.
Many economists say labor shortages make the economy more efficient and productive per person.
“The labor scarcity we’re experiencing is real … [but] this is an opportunity, not a crisis,” David Autor, a professor at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology, said in a September 4 op-ed for Schumer’s home-town newspaper, the New York Times. He continued:
Couldn’t raising wages spur employers to automate many low-paid service jobs? Yes — but that’s not bad. There’s no future in working the fry station at White Castle. We should welcome the robot that’s now doing that job at some locations. Automating bad jobs has positive consequences for productivity. When employers pay more for human labor, they have an incentive to use it more productively … And one way to use people more productively is to train them. This may be one reason that employers provide more training opportunities in a tightening labor market — something happening now.
However, lobbyists have persuaded Biden to back the amnesties that would deliver roughly six million workers — at least — into many of the jobs needed by Americans.
To a large extent, Biden has been pushed to back amnesties — and to forget about tight labor markets — because of face-to-face pressure by lobbyists from Mark Zuckerberg’s FWD.us advocacy group of West Coast investors.
On September 17, Biden’s economic advisors downplayed the wage damage to Americans as they issued a pro-amnesty memo. Notably, the memo did not endorse lobbyists’ claims that an amnesty would raise wages for Americans, and promised that wage losses would disappear “in the longer run.”

The economic damage caused by migration to Americans was made clear September 1, when several Americans and illegal immigrant were drowned in the their cheap basement apartments in New York. The apartments were all they could afford in a city where migration has swelled real-estate values.
The New York Times posted an article on September 2, which was discreetly silent about the federal government’s role in the drowning of migrants — and of poor Americans — in New York’s cheap basements:
In one of the most expensive housing markets in the world, they have offered low-income New Yorkers, including many working-class families who work in restaurants and hotels, affordable places to live. The basement apartments also provide some extra income for small landlords, many of whom are also immigrants.
[…]
Deborah Torres, who lives on the first floor of a building in Woodside, Queens, said she heard desperate pleas from the basement apartment of three members of a family, including a toddler, as floodwaters rushed in. A powerful cascade of water prevented anyone from getting into the apartment to help — or anyone from getting out. The family did not survive.
Many polls show that labor migration is deeply unpopular because it damages ordinary Americans’ career opportunities, cuts their wages, and raises their rents. Migration also curbs their productivity, shrinks their political clout, widens regional wealth gaps, and wrecks their democratic, compromise-promoting civic culture.
For many years, a wide variety of pollsters have shown deep and broad opposition to labor migration and the inflow of temporary contract workers into jobs sought by young U.S. graduates. This pocketbook opposition is multiracial, cross-sex, non-racist, class-based, bipartisan, rational, persistent, and recognizes the solidarity Americans owe to each other.
However, donor-funded GOP leaders have downplayed the pocketbook impact of migration on Americans’ communities. Instead, they try to steer voters’ concerns towards subsidiary non-economic issues, such as migrant crime, the border wall, border chaos, and drug smuggling.
Watch: Soros-Linked Open Borders Activists Demand ‘Citizenship for All’ Illegal Aliens
A number of open borders organizations linked to billionaire George Soros deployed activists across Washington, DC, on Tuesday, demanding “citizenship for all” illegal aliens living in the United States.
Days ago, Senate Parliamentarian Elizabeth MacDonough ruled that a massive amnesty plan for illegal aliens could not be slipped into Senate Democrats’ $3.5 trillion filibuster-proof budget reconciliation package.
In response, open borders groups like CASA de Maryland, Make the Road NY, United We Dream, United Farm Workers, the SEIU, and the Center for Popular Democracy sent activists out across Washington, DC to demand Congress include amnesty in a budget package regardless of MacDonough’s ruling.
CASA de Maryland, United We Dream, and the Center for Popular Democracy, as Breitbart News has reported in the past, have been financially linked to Soros’ Open Society Foundation for years.
Senate Majority Leader Chuck Schumer (D-NY) along with Sens. Alex Padilla (D-CA) and Bob Menendez (D-NJ) spoke at a rally alongside Center for Popular Democracy activists. Rep. Ilhan Omar (D-MN) also spoke at the rally.
“Last night’s ruling was extremely disappointing,” Schumer said Monday of the MacDonough’s decision. “It saddened me, it frustrated me, it angered me because so many lives are at stake … Senate Democrats have prepared alternative proposals.”
“During covid, immigrants — documented and undocumented — risked their lives to help others and we are so proud of them and they are so much part of America,” Schumer said.
For months, Democrats had hoped to slip an amnesty for illegal aliens enrolled and eligible for the Deferred Action for Childhood Arrivals (DACA) program, those employed on United States farms, those with Temporary Protected Status (TPS), and those deemed “essential workers” into their budget reconciliation package.
In August, a budget resolution framework put forth by Democrats revealed the amnesty would cost American taxpayers at least $107 billion.
