A NATION UNRAVELS AND THE BRIBES SUCKING DEMOCRAT PARTY IS DOING THE UNRAVELING!
In 2013, Congressional Budget Office (CBO) analysis stated that the “Gang of Eight” amnesty plan would “slightly” push down wages for American workers. Another CBO analysis, published in 2020, stated that “immigration has exerted downward pressure on the wages of relatively low-skilled workers who are already in the country, regardless of their birthplace.”
Chamber of Commerce, Corporate Donors Make Last-Ditch Effort to Ram Amnesty Through Lame Duck Congress
The United States Chamber of Commerce and corporate donors are making a last-ditch effort, spending hundreds of thousands of dollars, to ram an amnesty for illegal aliens through the lame duck session of Congress.
As Breitbart News reported, Sens. Thom Tillis (R-NC) and Kyrsten Sinema (I-AZ) have proposed a plan that would give amnesty to at least two million illegal aliens — those enrolled and eligible for the Deferred Action for Childhood Arrivals (DACA) — and bring hundreds of thousands more foreign workers into the U.S. labor market.
Tillis told NBC News that to get the amnesty passed, Congress needs to approve the measure immediately in the lame duck session as it will become difficult in next year’s split Republican House and Democrat Senate.
The donor class has been enlisted to help with the amnesty push.
The Chamber of Commerce is lobbying lawmakers to back the Tillis-Sinema plan. The Chamber’s political action committee (PAC) gave Tillis $7,500 in his 2020 reelection bid and has donated $3,500 to Sinema since 2018.

“We look forward to working with [Sens. Tillis and Sinema] over the next few weeks to move legislation forward that provides critical resources to properly secure our border, enacts much-needed reforms to our asylum laws, improves the operation of our legal immigration system, and brings real, lasting relief to Dreamers across the country,” Jon Baselice with the Chamber told NBC News.

Likewise, the American Hotel and Lodging Association is dropping a six-figure ad campaign in Arizona, North Carolina, South Carolina, Texas, and West Virginia to promote the amnesty. The group’s PAC donated $10,000 to Tillis in 2020 and has given Sinema $7,500 since 2018.
The Koch network has also thrown their donor weight behind the amnesty, encouraging lawmakers to sign on as cosponsors or back the plan. In 2020, the Koch-funded Americans for Prosperity Action PAC spent nearly $2.5 million against Tillis’s Democrat opponent.
The National Restaurant Association is set to launch a major ad campaign supporting the amnesty. The group’s PAC has spent more than $17,500 backing Sinema since 2018 and gave $5,000 to Tillis in his 2020 reelection bid.
Meanwhile, Sen. Lindsey Graham (R-SC) — considered a longtime proponent of amnesty — said the Tillis-Sinema plan has no chance of making it out of the Senate during the lame duck session.
“That’s not going anywhere; that’s a pipe dream,” Graham told NBC News. “You’ve got to do something with the border, you can’t just start legalizing people. I appreciate them working on it — there’s a deal to be done down the road — but it’s not money, it’s policy.”
Independent analysis has shown that amnesty, in addition to more legal immigration, is a net loss for Americans’ job security and wages.
In 2013, Congressional Budget Office (CBO) analysis stated that the “Gang of Eight” amnesty plan would “slightly” push down wages for American workers. Another CBO analysis, published in 2020, stated that “immigration has exerted downward pressure on the wages of relatively low-skilled workers who are already in the country, regardless of their birthplace.”
Other research finds current legal immigration to the U.S. results in more than $530 billion worth of lost wages for Americans.
Recent peer-reviewed research by economist Christoph Albert acknowledges that “as immigrants accept lower wages, they are preferably chosen by firms and therefore have higher job finding rates than natives, consistent with evidence found in US data.”
Every year, the U.S. gives green cards to more than a million foreign nationals who can eventually sponsor an unlimited number of foreign relatives for green cards — a process known as “chain migration.” In addition, more than a million are brought to the U.S. on temporary work visas to take America jobs and millions of illegal aliens are arriving at the southern border annually. Many are being released into the U.S. interior where they can secure work permits.

WATCH: 14-Year-Old Boy Almost Stabbed in Broad Daylight amid Vicious Attack in NYC
A 14-year-old boy was brutally attacked by a group of young males in broad daylight Wednesday in New York City.
Cell phone footage from a bystander shows one of the attackers attempting to stab the victim with a knife.
Watch:
According to the NYPD, the attack happened around 3:30 p.m. in the vicinity of Thomas Avenue and 31 Street in the Long Island City neighborhood of Queens. The incident occurred close to LaGuardia Community College, the Daily Mail noted.
The 14-year-old boy is initially seen fighting one unidentified male before several more join in attacking the victim as the brawl spills from the sidewalk onto the street.
The NYPD says five “unknown” males punched the victim multiple times in the head and body. The teen suffered bruising and minor lacerations to his ears and arms.
At one point during the brawl, one of the attackers is seen displaying a knife and attempting to stab the victim. However, the victim did not receive any stab wounds, according to police.
The NYPD says that no one involved in the fight has been identified or arrested, and the investigation is still ongoing.
The violent brawl comes as major crime has surged in the Big Apple over the past year. According to NYPD crime statistics, crime has increased by 25.5 percent citywide since last year.
Furthermore, felony assaults are up by 13 percent, robbery is up by 28.2 percent, grand larceny is up by 31.6 percent, and transit crime is up by 31.8 percent.

Joe Biden Cuts Deportations of Illegal Aliens by More Than 90% in U.S. Towns
President Joe Biden’s administration has drastically cut the number of illegal aliens being deported from towns and cities across the United States — some by more than 90 percent.
Twice last year, Biden’s Department of Homeland Security (DHS) issued so-called “sanctuary country” orders — now being challenged in court — that ensured most of the nation’s 11 to 22 million illegal aliens were not eligible for arrest and deportation by the Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) agency.
A number of counties across the U.S. have a large illegal alien population and thus have typically seen far more deportations over the years compared to other counties.
Public records obtained by the Center for Immigration Studies, though, show that the Biden administration has cut deportations of illegal aliens in all but two of the nation’s highest volume counties when comparing months in 2021 to the same period in 2019.
Most significantly, Biden’s DHS cut deportations by more than 90 percent in four of these 50 highest volume counties: Gwinnett County, Georgia; Plymouth County, Massachusetts; Bergen County, New Jersey; and Kankakee County, Illinois. Massachusetts, New Jersey, and Illinois are all sanctuary states.

Whereas more than 520 illegal aliens were deported from Gwinnett County, Georgia, from January to September 2019, in those same months under Biden in 2021, only 53 illegal aliens were deported.
In nine of the top 50 highest volume counties, the Biden administration cut deportations in 2021 by more than 80 percent compared to the same period in 2019.
For instance, in El Paso, Texas, more than 4,700 illegal aliens were deported in the first nine months of 2019, less than 670 illegal aliens were deported during the same period in 2021 under Biden’s DHS.
As Breitbart News reported, federal records shows the number of illegal aliens arrested by local law enforcement and deported from the U.S. has dropped by more than 70 percent under Bidden compared to 2019.
The decline in deportations for criminal illegal aliens has dropped in all local crime categories, records reveal, including a 57 percent decline in deportations for illegal aliens accused of murder, a 75 percent decline for those accused of kidnapping, a 91 percent decline for those accused of sex crimes, a 60 percent decline for those accused of sexual assault, and an 86 percent decline for those accused of burglary.

Chicago’s Protections for Felons, Gang Members Ensures Zero Criminal Illegal Aliens are Turned Over to Feds
The sanctuary city of Chicago is turning zero criminal illegal aliens over to the Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) agency for arrest and deportation in part thanks to Mayor Lori Lightfoot’s (D) protections for gang members and felons.
In the third quarter of 2022, city records show that none of the three ICE detainers filed with Chicago police — requesting custody of criminal illegal aliens — were honored. Likely hundreds, potentially thousands, more illegal aliens were arrested in Chicago during the period, but ICE agents have been restricted in issuing detainers by the Biden administration.
The refusal to honor any ICE detainers by Chicago officials is the result of Lightfoot’s expanded sanctuary city policy.
In February 2021, Lightfoot signed the expansion which prohibited local police from cooperating with ICE even in cases where arrested illegal aliens are in the gang database, are convicted felons, have pending criminal charges, or have outstanding warrants.
Lightfoot’s expansion came after former Mayor Rahm Emanuel (D) signed Chicago’s initial sanctuary city policy into law in 2012 which prohibited police from questioning suspects about their immigration status.
Emanuel’s sanctuary city policy was later expanded in 2016 to mandate that “city employees treat documented and undocumented immigrants with respect and dignity.”
