When Biden took office, one of his first acts was the elimination of our border security. Like a power-hungry dictator, Biden simply decided to ignore our immigration laws. His catastrophic border policy resulted in untold millions of unidentified foreign citizens from around the world pouring into our country. Its impact is now being felt in cities across the country. The worst is yet to come. PETER LEMISKA - AND WE'RE ALREADY THERE!!!

AMERICAN IN MELTDOWN - MORE THAN ONE MILLION AMERICANS LOST HEALTH INSURANCE IN 2018 - THE GLOBALIST DEMOCRAT PARTY STILL PROMISES ILLEGALS FULL "FREE" GRINGO PAID HEALTHCARE
More than one million Americans lost health insurance in 2018
Estimates from a Centers for Disease Control (CDC) survey reveal that 1.1 million people lost their health insurance coverage in 2018. Last year, over 30 million people did not have health insurance at the time of the study, including 13.3 percent of adults aged 18 to 64 and 5.2 percent of children aged 0 to 17.
After decreasing or leveling off in past years, the number of uninsured is on the rise. The National Health Interview Survey, a nationally representative study, asked participants about both their current health insurance status and whether they have had health insurance in the past year. The report’s results are presented by income status, demographics, and by states that opted or refrained to expand Medicaid under Obamacare.
As with other basic necessities, the ability to afford healthcare is deeply connected to income. In 2018, among adults aged 18 to 64, more than 27 percent of those who were “poor” (with family incomes at or below the poverty line) and about 25 percent of those who were “near-poor” (with family incomes between 100 and 200 percent of the poverty line) did not have health insurance.
Meanwhile, only about 8 percent of those who were “not poor” (with family incomes over 200 percent the poverty line or higher) were uninsured. This means that poor or near-poor were more than three times as likely to be uninsured than the non-poor.
For all age groups, the percentage uninsured at the time of the interview and the percentage uninsured for at least part of the year increased from 2017 to 2018. Some 9.4 percent of individuals lacked health insurance coverage at the time of their interview in 2018, compared to 9.1 percent in 2017.
More than one in ten individuals reported being uninsured for at least part of the year, with this group also increasing from 2017 to 2018. Some 12.9 percent of individuals of all ages reported being uninsured in 2018, while this figure was 12.4 percent in 2017. This means that over 40 million people were uninsured for at least part of the year in 2018.
In 2018, 6 million children aged 0 to 17 did not have healthcare coverage for at least part of the year, and 3.8 million were not insured at the time of the interview. Children who are poor or near-poor were more than 50 percent as likely as children who were not poor to be uninsured. In 2018, 6.4 percent of poor children did not have health insurance at the time of the interview, compared to 6.3 percent for near-poor children and 4.2 percent for non-poor children.
The number of uninsured people has fallen particularly in the 37 states that opted to expand Medicaid coverage under Obamacare. In these states, the percentage of uninsured adults decreased from 18.4 percent in 2013 to 9.9 percent in 2018. In other words, the percentage of uninsured adults aged 18 to 65 in these states decreased roughly by half.
Meanwhile, there are more uninsured adults in states that did not expand Medicaid. Between 2013 and 2015 the percentage of uninsured adults in these states decreased from 22.7 to 17.5 percent, but it increased between 2015 and 2017 from 17.5 to 19.0 percent. In 2018, the percentage of uninsured adults aged 18 to 64 in non-expansion states was 18.7 percent, or more than twice the rate as in the states that chose to expand Medicaid.
While the released report does not detail why individuals lost their health insurance, media reports have pointed to the repeal of the Affordable Care Act’s (ACA) so-called “individual mandate” by the Trump administration’s tax bill in 2017. No longer able to enforce the financial penalty of being uninsured, many individuals may have chosen to drop their healthcare coverage.
Legal challenges to the ACA are currently being decided by appeals courts after a federal district judge in Texas ruled that Obamacare was unconstitutional in December of last year. Between 20 and 25 million people would lose their healthcare coverage if the law that established Obamacare is struck down.
While many people became insured under ACA, the healthcare plans awarded under Obamacare’s insurance marketplaces or state-based exchanges were known for their high deductibles, large out-of-pocket expenses, and limited choice of insurers. In practice, this meant that while families and individuals were forced to buy health insurance, many were still unable to afford decent medical care.
Rising healthcare costs and an attack on benefits has prominently featured in a series of major struggles over the past two years, including strikes by teachers in the US and the ongoing strike by 2,000 nurses in Toledo, Ohio. However, workers that are entering into struggle must be warned: the fight to establish a high-quality and free healthcare system will not be granted by “Medicare-for-All” or proposed “fixes” to Obamacare by Congressional Democrats.
As long as the giant insurance companies and the tiny oligarchy that controls every aspect of social life remain in place, healthcare will remain a privilege for the few, rather than a social right for all. What is needed is a socialist policy for universal healthcare, through nationalizing the healthcare industry into a publicly owned and democratically controlled utility run to meet the needs of the population, not maximize the profits of the corporations.
Kamala Harris: Medicare for All Includes Illegal Aliens

(CNSNews.com) - Sen. Kamala Harris, now running for the Democrat presidential nomination, says people in this country illegally should have access to public safety, public education, and public health -- "period."
Harris, a guest on CNN's "State of the Union," said "I support Medicare for all. It is my preferred policy." She said she supports the bill introduced by Sen. Bernie Sanders.
Host Jake Tapper noted that Sanders' bill says, "'Every individual who's a resident of the United States is entitled to benefits for health care services under the Senate.' Not every individual who's a citizen, but every individual who's a resident."
Harris agreed.
"So you support giving universal health care and Medicare for all to people who are on this country illegally?" Tapper asked.
"Let me just be very clear about this," Harris said. "I'm opposed to any policy that would deny in our country any human being from access to public safety, public education, or public health, period."
Tapper also noted that Sanders' bill, which Harris said she supports, would eliminate private insurance, but Harris argued the point.
Here's the entire exchange:
TAPPER: You said on stage with me in January that when it comes to private insurance -- quote -- "Let's eliminate all of that. Let's move on."
HARRIS: Yes.
TAPPER: Now, you later said we don't need to get rid of all private insurance. So...
HARRIS: But let's clear that up. Wait. Jake, OK.
TAPPER: Which is -- which is it, exactly?
HARRIS: When we were together...
TAPPER: Yes.
HARRIS: And you will remember -- and roll the tape, please.
TAPPER: Yes, we can roll the tape.
HARRIS: That...
TAPPER: Well, you support the Bernie Sanders bill, which essentially gets rid of insurance.
HARRIS: I support Medicare for all, but I really do need to clear up what happened on that stage.
TAPPER: Yes, OK.
HARRIS: It was in the context of saying, let's get rid of all the bureaucracy. Let's get all of the waste...
TAPPER: Oh, not the insurance companies?
HARRIS: No. That's not what I meant. I know it was interpreted that way. If you watch the tape, I think you'll see that there are obviously many interpretations of what I said. What I meant is, let's get rid of the bureaucracy. As it relates to Medicare...
TAPPER: But the bill gets rid of insurance.
HARRIS: But -- no, no, no, no, it does not get rid of insurance. It does not get rid of insurance. And, listen -- and let me just tell you where I am. Let's tell you where I am.
TAPPER: OK. All right.
HARRIS: I support Medicare for all. It is my preferred policy.
TAPPER: As a principle, you mean, not Bernie Sanders' bill?
HARRIS: I support the bill.
TAPPER: OK.
HARRIS: I support the bill. I...
TAPPER: Well, because the bill gets rid of private insurance for everything that...
HARRIS: It doesn't get rid of supplemental insurance for...
TAPPER: Right, for cosmetic surgery, but for all...
HARRIS: So, it doesn't get rid of all insurance.
TAPPER: OK. It doesn't get rid of all insurance.
HARRIS: OK. Right.
TAPPER: ... but for all essential health care benefits.
HARRIS: But -- but why? Ask the question, why? The question -- the answer to that question is because Medicare for all and the vision of what it will be includes an expansion of coverage. So, Medicare for all will include vision. It will include dental. It will include hearing aids.
TAPPER: There are a lot of members of unions, for example, who like their private insurance...
HARRIS: Right. Right.
TAPPER: ... and the plans that have been negotiated on their behalf and don't want that replaced.
HARRIS: Right.
Well, listen, let me just tell you something. I completely agree with those members of organized labor who have negotiated for plans and have, in those negotiation processes -- processes, often give enough what could have been higher wages in exchange for a higher coverage for health care.
TAPPER: Right.
HARRIS: And we have got to -- we have to address that. It's a legitimate concern which must be addressed.
TAPPER: The bill also says -- quote -- "Every individual who's a resident of the United States is entitled to benefits for health care services under the Senate," not every individual who's a citizen, but every individual who's a resident.
HARRIS: Mm-hmm.
TAPPER: So you support giving universal health care and Medicare for all to people who are on this country illegally?
HARRIS: Let me just be very clear about this. I'm opposed to any policy that would deny in our country any human being from access to public safety, public education, or public health, period.
Pelosi’s San Francisco Boasts Most Billionaires Per Capita of Any City in the World
House Speaker Rep. Nancy Pelosi’s (D-Calif.) San Francisco has the greatest billionaire density of any city in the world, a new wealth study reveals.
Pelosi, who represents California’s 12th Congressional District, lives in San Francisco, a city with the most billionaires per capita, by far, of any city on Earth, the latest annual study by Wealth-X finds.
In 2018, San Francisco had one billionaire for every 11,612 inhabitants, followed by New York, which had one for every 81,311 residents. Los Angeles was the only other U.S. city to make the top ten (#5).
Billionaire Density (inhabitants per billionaire) in 2018:
San Francisco 11,612
New York 81,311
Dubai 84,007
Hong Kong 84,962
Los Angeles 101,957
London 135,198
Hangzhou 143,677
Singapore 143,904
Moscow 176,145
Beijing 223,000
Shenzhen 294,636
Tokyo 317,750
Mumbai 327,431
Sao Paulo 362,661
Istanbul 462,629
The study attributes San Francisco’s dominance in billionaire density to “the size and scale of the tech sector in a city of less than one million inhabitants.”
The total number of billionaires in the U.S. increased 3.7% to 705 in 2018, accounting for 27% of the global billionaire population and 35% of total billionaire wealth worldwide. U.S. billionaire wealth declined 4.9% to $3,013,000,000,000 – but, still exceeded that of the next eight countries combined.

DOUBLING AMERICA’S POPULATION: A tragedy in the making!
Do you want your children to face the ominous ecological, sociological and cultural clashes they will encounter with an added 50 million legal immigrants? Do you want your kids to face 100 different languages in your schools? In Denver, my city, we must contend with 173 different languages in our classrooms. Do you want to pay ever-increasing amounts of your taxes toward housing, feeding, medicating, educating and caring for 50 million foreign-born immigrants who lack any qualifications, any cultural affinity, and/or any educational abilities to contribute to our first world economy and society?
If you think the future will be pretty for your kids, just look at what’s happening in Detroit-istan, Minneapolis-istan, Miami-istan, Los Angeles-Mexico or the murder capital of America—Chicago. If you think the 60,000 plus homeless living in tent cities in Los Angeles and 11,000 homeless in San Francisco can’t be solved, how do you think we will solve millions of immigrants from Africa, Indochina, India, Mexico and heaven knows where else in the world?

Police say drug dealers from the East Bay ride BART into San Francisco every day to prey on the addicts slumped on our sidewalks, and yet the city that claims to so desperately want to help those addicts often looks the other way.

According to the Federation for American Immigration Reform’s 2017 report, illegal immigrants, and their children, cost American taxpayers a net $116 billion annually -- roughly $7,000 per alien annually. While high, this number is not an outlier: a recent study by the Heritage Foundation found that low-skilled immigrants (including those here illegally) cost Americans trillions over the course of their lifetimes, and a study from the National Economics Editorial found that illegal immigration costs America over $140 billion annually. As it stands, illegal immigrants are a massive burden on American taxpayers.

Paul Pelosi, Nancy's husband, owns $17 million dollars of Star-Kist stock.
In January, 2007 when the minimum wage was increased from $5.15 to $7.25, Pelosi had American Samoa exempted from the increase so Del Monte would not have to pay the higher wage. This would make Del Monte products less expensive than their competition's.
Last week when the huge bailout bill was passed, Pelosi added an earmark to the final bill adding $33 million dollars for an "economic development credit in American Samoa".

PROTECTING OUR BORDERS! Our government is too busy inviting the illegals here!
The NEW privileged class, ILLEGALS
This is why you work From Jan - May paying taxes to the government ....with the rest of the calendar year is money for you and your family
If they do not have privileges over the rest of the population I will eat my shit..............
Take, for example, an illegal alien with a wife and five children. He takes a job for $5.00 or 6.00/hour. At that wage, with six dependents, he pays no income tax, yet at the end of the year, if he files an Income Tax Return, with his fake Social Security number,he gets an "earned income credit" of up to $3,200..... free.
He qualifies for Section 8 housing and subsidized rent.
He qualifies for food stamps..
He qualifies for free (no deductible, no
co-pay) health care.
His children get free breakfasts and lunches at school.
He requires bilingual teachers and books.
He qualifies for relief from high energy bills..
If they are or become, aged, blind or disabled, they qualify for SSI.
Once qualified for SSI they can qualify for Medicare. All of this is at (our) taxpayer's expense .
He doesn't worry about car insurance, life insurance, or homeowners insurance.
Taxpayers provide Spanish language signs, bulletins and printed material.
He and his family receive the equivalent of $20.00 to $30.00/hour in benefits.
Working Americans
are lucky to have $5.00 or $6.00/hour left after Paying their bills and his.
The American taxpayers also pay for increased crime, graffiti and trash clean-up.
Cheap labor? YEAH RIGHT! Wake up people!

Illegal Immigration at 9X the Rate of 2017, Projected to Outpace Obama
U.S. workers have finally been seeing some decent raises in recent months, after suffering through nearly a decade of meager wage gains. Unfortunately for them, this might be as good as it gets. MARK WHITEHOUSE
In a state like Florida, where immigrants make up about 25.4
percent of the labor force, American workers have their weekly
wages reduced by perhaps more than 12.5 percent. In
California, where immigrants make up 34 percent of the labor
force, American workers’ weekly wages are reduced by
potentially 17 percent.
This policy of inflating the labor supply boosts economic growth for investors because it ensures that employers do not have to compete for American workers by offering higher wages and better working conditions.
This policy of flooding the market with cheap foreign white-collar graduates and blue-collar labor shifts enormous wealth from young employees towards older investors even as it also widens wealth gaps, reduces high-tech investment, increases state and local tax burdens, and hurts children’s schools and college educations. It also pushes Americans away from high-tech careers and sidelines millions of marginalized Americans, including many who are now struggling with fentanyl addictions. The labor policy also movesbusiness investment from the heartland to the coasts, explodes rents, shrivels real estate values in the Midwest and rewards investors for creating low tech, labor-intensive workplaces.
High levels of immigration, illegal and legal, puts downward pressure on U.S. wages while redistributing about $500 billion in wealth away from America’s working and middle class and towards employers and new arrivals, research by the National Academies of Sciences, Engineering and Medicine has found.
“Increasing immigration is the one thing that can wipe out all
the wage gains, all the employment gains for those blue-collar
workers who switched parties to vote for him,” Jenks said. “I
hope someone in the White House has his interest in mind
who is telling him this.”
Spokespeople for the Chamber of Commerce, LULAC, George W. Bush Center, and Koch Industries dominate the immigration talks in White House currently.

Wage Raises: Donald Trump, Nancy Pelosi Tout Rival Plans
Americans’ wages need to grow faster, says House Speaker Nancy Pelosi.
Jobs “are not producing the wages that people need to meet their needs,” Pelosi said at a Washington Post event. She continued:
And people still feel scarred by what happened in 2008 when their home [mortages] were underwater, their pensions were at risk, they were living off their savings, their children’s education [was] in doubt. So there’s still that concern and 40 percent of the American people — you’ve seen the figures over and over again – cannot withstand a $500 unforeseen cost — whether it is a [broken] water heater, a carburetor or whatever happens to be.
The Postpublished video of the event; Pelosi’s comments on the subject start around the 40:00 mark.
The call for higher wages reflects an effort by Pelosi to use kitchen table issues to win swing voters back from President Donald Trump amid furious media coverage about partisan fights in Washington, DC, over special investigations, congressional subpoenas, and tax bills.
Pelosi’s proposed fix, however, is more socialist-style rhetoric and regulation of the economy:
We think … we have to have equal pay for equal work … a $15 minimum wage — fight for $15 — which we will be sending [to the Senate] soon. But you have to do something big, like an infrastructure challenge … health care is a very big piece of their financial security … increasing their paycheck is very important.
But Trump has plenty of ammunition for this political battle because his low immigration, “Hire American” policy helped nudge up free market wages for blue-collar Americans by roughly four percent in 2018.
This small government labor policy has raised wages for restaurant workers in Indiana, boosted farm companies’ investment in labor-saving machinery, helped women switch to higher-wage careers, forced up Americans’ productivity, and spiked pay offers to new hires nationwide — and may help elect Trump in 2020.
Biz lobbyists keep insisting 2 media that immigration doesn't hurt wages. But biz CEOs say they're paying higher wages because of the labor shortage. The media is finally waking up - & may even check migration's impact on their peers' post-college salaries http://bit.ly/2I4lURc
Wages are expected to keep rising in 2019 despite the huge influx of new workers who are taking advantage of Congress’s loose border laws to migrate from Central America.
Most private-sector forecasters surveyed in recent days by The Wall Street Journal—63.6%—expect wages will grow at a somewhat faster rate over the next year, while a further 5.5% of economists said wages will grow at a substantially faster rate.
“We continue to hear from manufacturers about how difficult it is to attract talent in the tight labor market, a challenge that we do not see changing in the near future,” said Chad Moutray, chief economist at the National Association of Manufacturers.
Just under a quarter of economists, 23.6%, expect wages to grow at the same 3.2% year-over-year pace seen in April. Just 7.3% expect the pace will slow over the next year.
But the recent wage gains have not made up for the massive losses since the 1970s when the 1965 immigration law ended the era of tight labor markets and rising wages by providing employers with a flood of foreign workers each year.
Trump rarely talks about wages to reporters in Washington, DC. But at his May 8 rally in Panama City Beach, Trump got an enthusiastic response when he touted the gains:
After many years of stagnation, wages are rising very fast. Hasn’t happened in 20 years! And they’re rising fastest — which makes me feel very good – for blue-coller workers. Fastest proportionally. And driving our whole agenda is a jobs boom that is historic. Hasn’t happened like this in many, many years. if at all.
…
We’re reducing burdens in our businesses but in return we expect American companies to invest in America — which is what we’re demanding — to raise wages in America, — which is happening — and to hire American workers to do the job. That’s what we want.
Goldman Sachs says Trump's tight labor-market policy (AKA 'Hire American') gave 4% raise to blue-collar/middle-class in 2018. But upper-income graduate salaries lagged - maybe b/c of 1.5 million visa-worker graduates who work for spaghettiOs & green cards http://bit.ly/2Fan4b0
Trump’s deputies also say they plan to protect Americans’ wages as they move forward with an immigration plan that would repair border security problems and shift the focus of immigration from blue-collar labor jobs to white-collar, college-credential jobs.
“We have a lot of objectives … Number one, [Trump] wants to protect American wages,” White House senior counselor Jared Kushner said April 23.
One official said the plan “would cumulatively increase wages in the U.S.,” Politico reported May 7. Officials have not explained if “cumulatively increase” is the same as a per-capita increase.
In turn, Pelosi and Democrats are likely to portray the wage gains as minor compared to gains made by investors. At the Washington Post event, she said:
Wages are not rising in the way that they should by some of the indicators out there and employment is low, but … jobs are not producing the wages that people need to meet their needs … So while the president’s one percent is doing beautifully … you can’t measure the economic well-being of our country as to how it affects the one percent.
“We are concerned about the kitchen table [issues] … They are ‘Trickle down,’ we are ‘Bubble up'” Pelosi said.
When businesses have to compete for workers, they raise wages and improve working conditions. This is finally happening for American workers for the first time in ages. Importing a flood of cheap foreign labor on more H-2B visas threatens that growth. https://www.nytimes.com/2019/05/02/business/economy/wage-growth-economy.html …
Each year, roughly four million young Americans join the workforce after graduating from high school or university.
But the federal government then imports about 1.1 million legal immigrants and refreshes a resident population of roughly 1.5 million white-collar visa workers — including roughly one million H-1B workers — and approximately 500,000 blue-collar visa workers.
The government also prints out more than one million work permits for foreigners, tolerates about eight million illegal workers, and does not punish companies for employing the hundreds of thousands of illegal migrants who sneak across the border or overstay their legal visas.
This policy of inflating the labor supply boosts economic growth for investors because it ensures that employers do not have to compete for American workers by offering higher wages and better working conditions.
This policy of flooding the market with cheap foreign white-collar graduates and blue-collar labor shifts enormous wealth from young employees towards older investors even as it also widens wealth gaps, reduces high-tech investment, increases state and local tax burdens, and hurts children’s schools and college educations.

"This is country belongs to Mexico" is said by the Mexican Militant. This is a common teaching that the U.S. is really AZTLAN, belonging to Mexicans, which is taught to Mexican kids in Arizona and California through a LA Raza educational program funded by American Tax Payers via President Obama, when he gave LA RAZA $800,000.00 in March of 2009!
The “zero tolerance” program was dismantled by Attorney General Erc Holder once it had successfully cut the transit of migrants by roughly 95 percent. Initially, officials made 140,000 arrests per year in the mid-2000s, but the northward flow dropped so much that officials only had to make 6,000 arrests in 2013, according to a 2014 letter by two pro-migration Senators, Sen. Jeff Flake and John McCain.
“The cost of the Dream Act is far bigger than the Democrats or their media allies admit. Instead of covering 690,000 younger illegals now enrolled in former President Barack Obama’s 2012 “DACA” amnesty, the Dream Act would legalize at least 3.3 million illegals, according to a pro-immigration group, the Migration Policy Institute.”

Previous generations of immigrants did not believe they were racially superior to Americans. That is the view of La Raza Cosmica, by Jose Vasconcelos, Mexico’s former education minister and a presidential candidate. According to this book, republished in 1979 by the Department of Chicano Studies at Cal State LA, students of Scandinavian, Dutch and English background are dullards, blacks are ugly and inferior, and those “Mongols” with the slanted eyes lack enterprise. The superior new “cosmic” race of Spaniards and Indians is replacing them, and all Yankee “Anglos.” LLOYD BILLINGSLEY/ FRONTPAGE mag

The “zero tolerance” program was dismantled by Attorney General Erc Holder once it had successfully cut the transit of migrants by roughly 95 percent. Initially, officials made 140,000 arrests per year in the mid-2000s, but the northward flow dropped so much that officials only had to make 6,000 arrests in 2013, according to a 2014 letter by two pro-migration Senators, Sen. Jeff Flake and John McCain.

Previous generations of immigrants did not believe they were racially superior to Americans. That is the view of La Raza Cosmica, by Jose Vasconcelos, Mexico’s former education minister and a presidential candidate. According to this book, republished in 1979 by the Department of Chicano Studies at Cal State LA, students of Scandinavian, Dutch and English background are dullards, blacks are ugly and inferior, and those “Mongols” with the slanted eyes lack enterprise. The superior new “cosmic” race of Spaniards and Indians is replacing them, and all Yankee “Anglos.” LLOYD BILLINGSLEY/ FRONTPAGE mag
Illegal Immigration at 9X the Rate of 2017, Projected to Outpace Obama
Illegal immigration at the United States-Mexico border last month was nine times the level of the same month two years ago and is projected to outpace every year when former President Obama oversaw immigration.
As Breitbart News reported, there were nearly 100,000 apprehensions of migrants, border crossers, and asylum applicants at the U.S.-Mexico border last month. This is nearly nine times the level of illegal immigration compared to April 2017, when just a little more than 11,000 border crossers were apprehended.
Likewise, projections by Princeton Policy researcher Steven Kopits reveal that the U.S. remains on track this year to outpace every year of illegal immigration overseen by Obama.
At current illegal immigration levels, about 863,000 border apprehensions are expected for Fiscal Year 2019. This is a level of illegal immigration at the southern border that has not been seen since the last years of former President George W. Bush.
The only Fiscal Year that has reached a higher level of illegal immigration at the southern border dating back to more than a decade ago was Fiscal Year 2006, when more than one million apprehensions were made at the U.S.-Mexico border.

Kopits projects that this month’s rate of illegal immigration will be around the same level as last month, with anywhere between 90,000 to 95,000 apprehensions.
Through increased immigration enforcement, Trump has secured a four percent wage gain over the last 12 months for America’s blue-collar and working class.
Experts like Kris Kobach have warned that if illegal immigration levels continue to soar over this year and throughout 2020, those wage hikes will be choked by a saturated labor market with more cheap, foreign workers competing against Americans. Kobach has detailed a plan exclusively at Breitbart News to stem the flow of mass illegal immigration to the country.
Every year, the U.S. admits more than 1.2 million legal immigrants to the country regardless of the rate of illegal immigration arriving at the borders and through visa overstays – that is, foreign nationals who have refused to leave the country after their visas expire. At current rates of legal immigration, if not reduced, about one-in-six U.S. residents will be foreign-born, according to the Census Bureau.

Open borders advocates are getting the open border they want
The number of migrants apprehended at the Southern border surpassed 100,000 for the second consecutive month, according to new figures released by the Trump administration.
U.S. Customs and Border Protection apprehended 109,144 migrants in April. That is more than 5,400 over the total in the month of March, and it is the highest monthly total since 2007.
The chief of the Border Patrol, Carla Provost, told a Senate Judiciary panel that "our apprehension numbers are off the charts."
"We cannot address this crisis by shifting more resources. It's like holding a bucket under a faucet. It doesn't matter how many buckets you give me if we can't turn off the flow," she said.
For the rest of us, we are about to learn just what open borders looks like. 109,000 is quite a few people, not just in a big country such as the United States, but in the countries these migrants are coming from - 1% of the population of Guatemala, 1% of the population of Honduras, taken over the course of the first seven months of the fiscal year.
Economist Hernando de Soto told me several years ago that history shows there is no stopping the movement of peoples, and while I felt disagreement with him then, it's clear that in this mass migration incident, he was in a certain way right. It's not that people are unstoppable like deer in nature, however. It's that the incentivizing laws from the U.S. - from the failure of the asylum system to keep junk claims out, to the huge banquet of 'free' benefits on offer from states, which judges have ruled no popular vote can stop, pretty well inevitably leads to the now-seen open border that lawmen can no longer stop, all based on sheer volume. The law has little ballast or enforcement in the face of a migrant flood, with migrants now rolling in not just form Central America, but from all over the world.
What is it going to take to reestablish rule of law, to stop so many service-desperate, uneducated, hard-to-assimilate, unskilled migrants looking for a handout without following the law? It helps of course when someone puts pressure on the governments that make life so miserable for their citizens that they want to leave, as a Nigerian cardinal did recently, blasting his country's government for driving so many people out based on their rotten governance. In this hemisphere, no such leadership is evident on the ground in remittance-hungry countries such as Honduras, so the migrants are coming.
Under such conditions, the logical limits of immigration can be calibrated not so much by whether countries south of the border reach parity with American standards of living, freedom, security, and quality of life. But rather the current issue is whether regions of America, especially the American Southwest become roughly indistinguishable from Latin America and Mexico, and therefore in terms of economic opportunity, safety, and quality of life do not offer that much of an improvement—or at least not such a radical margin of enhancement to justify abandoning one’s homeland.
In such an equation, the more that illegal aliens arrive, swamp social services and tax law enforcement, the more that they create ethnic enclaves that resist rapid assimilation and the more that they sense that their hosts see them most useful as an identity politics constituency, then the more parts of the southwestern United States will seem more like Mexico, and perhaps to the point of eventually diminishing illegal immigration.
No one knows what the saturation point might be of illegal and unassimilated immigration, but influxes are now approximating each month a mid-sized American city.
So the U.S. will have to become as corrupt, hellish and impoverished as the places these foreigners leave behind to nullify the enticements of migrating illegally.
Which is a pretty sad picture. The only possibility of reversing it, though, is still out there, given that nations such as Canada and Australia have mastered it: they crafted far better immigration laws, which required fewer lawmen to stop those who would break those laws. If the U.S. does this, the nation can renew its commitment to rule of law and serious efforts can be made to halt illegal entrants at the border.
No chance for that with the Democrats, who see the migrants as politically useful in a lot of ways, the needier and more easily manipulated, the better.
So for now, the migrants are rolling in, and the Border Patrol, with no tools for stopping anyone (just deporting one of them require the use of a detention bed they don't have) is effectively just waving them though, if not serving as free babysitters for people who should be paying for their own freight the way normal people do.
It's sad because the other thing Hernando de Soto said was critical for any prosperity and stability in a country is the invisible architecture of rule of law. Without it, the U.S. can just morph into Honduras North. It appears the Democrats would have that because they are blocking any meaningful efforts to control the border, the borders are wide open now and rule of law is going fast.
S.F IS HOME TO THE MOST CORRUPT AMNESTY DEMS IN THE COUNTRY INCLUDING FEINSTEIN, PELOSI, NEWSOM AND HITLERMALA HARRIS.
Twentieth-century San Francisco, Herb Caen's beloved Baghdad by the Bay, has ceased to exist. It has been replaced by a city where the sidewalks around Market Street are, in places, caked in feces, urine, and vomit. The stink as you emerge from the BART batters you like frozen sleet, shocking and overwhelming. The hordes of homeless, sprawled in doorways and sleeping on the sidewalks, are a bitterly eclectic mixture of the mentally deranged; burnt out druggies; dead-eyed hippies; con artists; pickpockets; and hundreds of simply lost, forgotten souls.
I had occasion to visit downtown San Francisco this afternoon, the first time in over seven years, though I reside only thirty miles away in the East Bay suburbs. During my working life, I have commuted to San Francisco as a bushy-tailed junior executive in the '70s, as a small business-owner in the early '80s, and as a corporate executive in the '90s. Thankfully, "Old" San Francisco really was a wonderful place to work, eat, and play.
As I walked the three blocks back to the BART, I was panhandled four times, plus two clumsy pickpocket attempts. I didn't see a single cop in a car or on foot. What could they do?
What finally broke my heart were the kids and women, also lying in the streets, drugged, shell-shocked, begging for food. I found an ATM, took out some cash, and bought twenty five-dollar "Arch Cards" from McDonald's and passed them out. The salty tears flowed gently down my face and onto my lips. My soul, my humanity was abused, sickened, and disgusted.
Today I observed a city that carefully and deliberately schemed to become an open sewer. This is far beyond simple incompetence. The magnitude and pervasiveness of this horror remains indescribable. No rational, thinking person, or board, or mayor could allow this societal abomination to continue unabated in a first-world country.
Yet it does.
San Francisco willingly hosts a malignant cancer that has metastasized and destroyed all aspects of a civilized, compassionate society.
While skyscrapers still fill the skyline, and tankers and giant container ships still prowl the bay, the City-by-the-Bay soul has begun its death rattle.
The Democratic-run city of Albuquerque is forcing U.S. kids out of city accommodations to provide cheap temporary housing for foreign migrants.
The first victims were American children in a state 4H club who were expecting to use the temporary accommodation at the Expo New Mexico convention center for a four-day horseriding course.
“My daughter was in tears about this,” Dr. Donny MacDougall told KRQE.com, which continued:
“We were extremely disappointed when we have a quality facility like Expo New Mexico and the rug gets ripped out from under our kids’ feet,” MacDougall says.
Just days ago, parents received a letter explaining the camp would now be held in Las Cruces because the state wants to use the dorms to help with the rush of asylum-seekers entering the U.S.
“A different venue is a challenge for a lot of parents. It will cost more money and be more difficult logistically to get the kids there,” MacDougall says.
“The city says this was an opportunity to save money for the [pro-migration] organizations that help the asylum seekers,” according to KRQE.com, which also quoted a city official saying :
“Right now, many of these [pro-migration] groups host asylum seekers at hotels and places of worship, and so as great as that is for right now, it’s not something that is sustainable. It’s very costly for these groups,” Mariella Ruyz-Angel, Office of Immigrant and Refugee Affairs, said.
The facilities at Expo New Mexico can house up to 240 migrants.
Ruyz-Angel’s refugee office was set up by city officials in 2017 to aid migrants. The Albuquerque Journalreported in 2017:
Mayor Richard Berry announced a new city office Tuesday intended to serve Albuquerque’s immigrants and refugees by providing a “central point of contact” for groups and agencies that serve them.
The Office of Immigrant and Refugee Affairs will offer services without regard to the legal immigration status of people who seek help, Berry said at a news conference.
The office and three-member staff are funded by an 18-month $300,000 W.K. Kellogg Foundation grant awarded in July.
Expo New Mexico has a proud and well-established history of providing shelter and accommodations for people in need. It has been determined that Expo New Mexico can provide a practical and humane solution through the use of dormitory space, and we are prepared to house dozens of individuals at a time as they make a temporary stop on their way to long-term housing with sponsor families in other states.
…
Community and volunteer organizations are providing food, water and toiletries via a network of donations. EXPO is an enterprise agency generating its own operating budget through the renting of our facilities, parking, and events. EXPO New Mexico receives no state money from the state’s General Fund. The costs associated with use of the Leon Harms Youth Hall has little to no impact on EXPO’s operating budget.
Expo officials say the exclusion of the 4H members, and the housing for migrants, will not impact events at the center.
While on the fairgrounds, these individuals will occupy enclosed dormitories and courtyards which are not typically utilized for public events. They will also utilize some spaces in the Youth Hall, which has limited use for year round events, though nothing is scheduled in the foreseeable future.
Roughly 100,000 economic migrants from Central America crossed the border in Apri and in May, aided by the catch-and-release rules which were created by Congress and the courts. Officials fear that 1 million migrants will cross the border in the 12 months up to October 2019. The inflow is welcomed by Democrats in many cities who choose to view the migrants as humanitarian victims — but also as cheap workers and renters for their business allies.
So far, Democrats have opposed any change in the catch-and-release rules proposed by President Donald Trump.
In response, Trump is pushing a variety of bureaucratic, and regulatory changes to curb the migration, including a program that keeps migrants in Mexico until federal court officials are ready to hear their pleas for asylum.
