It doesn't matter that many illegal aliens are good and decent people when they are breaking U.S. law and jumping in front of millions of others, who are attempting to come to America legally. So many thousands more are committing well documented rapes, assaults, robberies, and murders by the thousand each year, at a rate that has grown exponentially with the Biden regime's immediate reversal of President Trump's effective border policy. And to hear Joe Biden tout his actions on the border during the recent State of the Union address was sickening, dishonest, and evil to the core, as he attempted to convince the American people that an extremely out-of-control and serious problem doesn't exist on the southern border, a problem of his making that continues to be facilitated by Homeland Security Secretary Alejandro Mayorkas.
Speaking to the L.A. Times in June of 2017 about her husband's murder , which occurred thirty miles from the border in southeast Arizona in 2010, Sue Krentz stated, "It wasn't a U.S. resident who shot him. You show me which U.S. resident it was. Give me their name and address. ... There's not a house for seven miles."
In his book Far Beyond the Border Fence , George Alan Kelly makes the following observation:
Stopping construction of the Border Wall was just a ploy taken by Washington politicians trying to buy the votes of Hispanics living legally and illegally in the U.S.
Kelly also just happens to be a seventy-three year old rancher from Kino Springs, Arizona, a mile and a half from the Mexican border, who shot and killed Gabriel Cuen-Butimea, an illegal alien with a long history of deportations from the U.S. Kelly asserts that he took fire, which more than likely prompted him to return fire. Cuen-Butimea's body was found a little over 100 yards away from Kelly's house, and if one of the two rifles confiscated by the Santa Cruz County Sheriff's Department prove to have been the illegal alien's, there isn't a jury in Arizona that will convict Kelly in good conscience, especially with Arizona law providing for lethal action to protect one's life and home.
Rather than charge Kelly with murder, arrest him, and hold him on a million dollar bond, authorities should have shaken his hand and let him get on with his life and back to his elderly wife, who is now left to fend for herself on a dangerous section of border.
Make no mistake: many of these people trying to make it to America are already illegal aliens by the fact that they entered Mexico illegally, too, and they're often dangerous criminals or terrorists. And if they truly are asylum-seekers fleeing political or religious persecution or a sex-slave situation, international law and treaties agreed upon by the U.S. and most nations of the United Nations demand that they seek asylum in the first nation they enter where the threat no longer exists.
Some have taken exception to my referencing illegal aliens as "illegal aliens" before they ever cross the Rio Grande, but if they are Other-Than-Mexican in Mexico without proper papers and authorization, they are illegals. If they cross the U.S. southern border without going through an official port of entry and without a valid passport or visa, they are illegal aliens, pure and simple.
As I observed in 2013:
Under Article 32 of the Mexican Constitution, a person cannot immigrate Amnesty by any Other Name - American Thinker to Mexico without first demonstrating a particular skill or potential usefulness; Article 34 requires immigrants to have the means to support themselves; applicants for legal immigrant status are screened for mental illness and prior criminal acts as outlined by Article 37. And, entering Mexico illegally is a felony punishable by 5 years in prison and a 5,000 peso fine; more importantly, only citizens of their republic can take part in the politics of the country, according to Article 133.
Why aren't these "asylum-seekers" seeking asylum in Mexico? It's because they aren't asylum-seekers. They are simply looking for the economic opportunities afforded people in the U.S. and all the free stuff they can collect. And even then, we have seen them reject American charity as not being good enough, as they trashed $500-a-night rooms in the Watson Hotel in Hell's Kitchen and threw away perfectly good food and supplies they had been provided by various NGOs and the federal government, after being told they were being moved to a regular, perfectly good shelter facility.
Ranchers and many average citizens all along the border are worried and often frightened by the massive groups that seemingly appear from nowhere on their properties, and although many pass by without incident, far too many stop and do great harm to Americans like Krentz and Kelly, or they glide out of the border areas to create chaos and carry out their deadly mayhem in the interior of America. The proof is found in a well documented exponential increase in drug cartel activity throughout the country.
Suggesting that only Congress could solve the problem by passing "comprehensive immigration reform" and providing a pathway to citizenship for DREAMers, Biden was essentially calling for Congress to come together to pass another amnesty for some 40 million illegal aliens currently residing in America. He also called for more equipment to be used to help the Border Patrol secure the border, although he full well knows that his policy has been a massive program and mission to facilitate more illegal immigration and flood the country with millions of illegal aliens, as seen through Mayorkas's orders to U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement and the U.S. Border Patrol.
Nearly six million illegal aliens have entered the U.S. under Biden's watch, and it is ludicrous for him or anyone in his regime to state that they have the border situation "under control" when they so obviously don't, and millions of more illegals are already on the way. These Democrats aren't pursuing or advocating some minor difference on governance regarding immigration policy. They are maliciously abandoning all legal restrictions on immigration and actively refusing to enforce standing U.S. immigration law, in a manner that can only be called treasonous at the least, Machiavellian and evil to its core.
One need not be surprised when the country starts witnessing many more illegals shot along the border, or in the interior in the commission of a crime, as tensions rise across the country and Americans do what the federal government refuses, defending their own lives and property, in the same manner as George Alan Kelly did.
None of this would be happening if Joe Biden would actually enforce existing U.S. immigration laws and fully, completely, and properly secure the border, through the wall and any manpower necessary to get the job done right. This mess is his doing, it's intentional, and he and other Democrats may soon reap what they have sown.

Is it all that different from his open borders policies, where millions of unvetted foreign migrants are flooding into this country without authorization, bringing crime, drugs, and costs, yet there too nothing is done about it? Joe offers an absurd excuse for that decision, as well claiming that all migrants who can utter the magic word 'asylum' are entitled to a free ride inside the U.S. for years or more, amounting to an all-expenses paid trip for thousands.

Impeaching Mayorkas is a Waste of Time
"FAIR Analysis : 5.5 Million Illegal Aliens Have Crossed our Borders Since Biden Took Office — How is Secretary Mayorkas Still Employed?" -- Federation for American Immigration Reform (FAIR) October 25, 2022.*
House Speaker, Kevin McCarthy and other House Republicans are floating a motion to impeach Homeland Security Secretary Alejandro Mayorkas, as if that would end the invasion of millions of foreign nationals at our Southern border.
How does that work, exactly, when this open-border agenda goes right to the top. If Mayorkas is removed, wouldn't President Biden just appoint another open-borders guy to fill his slot?
If House Republicans do any impeaching, to stop the lawless flood of foreigners into the United States, it seems they would need to impeach the official Border Czar and her Boss -- both of them, together.
While it may be a first, 'dual impeachment' of both president and vice president is not such an outlandish idea when you consider that the Democrats impeached Donald Trump twice. During Trump's first impeachment, over the supposed quid pro quo telephone call with Volodymyr Zelensky, Democrats actually toyed with the idea of impeaching Vice President Mike Pence as well. So, there is something of a precedent. The second time they impeached him and held a Senate trial, President Trump was already out of office. Now, if anything passes for 'outlandish', that's it.
Unlike the flimsy cases presented in the Trump impeachment trials, the case against Biden and Harris, on their mismanagement of our border, is rock solid.
Let's summarize:
For starters, let's define the "fentanyl crises" for what it really is: Chemical warfare, effectively perpetrated on the American people by the Chinese communist government and their Mexican-cartel allies. This administration's open border, which is clearly an intentional policy, marks Biden and Harris as co-conspirators in what's arguably the CCP's chemical-weapons assault on U.S. citizens.
(By the way, the partnership between Red China and the Mexican cartels, for the purpose of smuggling drugs and humans into the U.S., is straight out of the playbook: Unrestricted Warfare ; written by CCP generals Qiao Liang and Wang Xiangsui.)
Bidden and Harris are not only complicit in the crimes taking place at the border, they are accomplices . The Biden administration covertly transports millions of illegal aliens, by bus or plane , to every state in the union and re-settles them. Other perks for being an illegal invader are free smart phones , food stamps, medical , etc. ...all compliments of American taxpayers.
Violent criminals, cartel thugs, pedophiles, and international terrorists trickle into our country amidst this chaos; posing a clear and present danger to all American citizens.
November 2022 , saw a record-breaking 233,740 border crossers who registered with Border Patrol agents, plus an estimated 73,000 gotaways ; a total approaching 400,000 illegal immigrants.
December broke that even that record with an official 251,487 Border Patrol encounters (a 7% increase from the previous month) plus Lord knows how many "gotaways." You do the math. The point is: this is not a compassionate immigration policy. It is an outright invasion of the United States promoted by a rogue government seated in the White House.
The perils of the Biden/Harris open border are not limited to American citizens. According to CBS News reports: "At least 853 migrants died trying to cross the U.S.-Mexico border unlawfully in the past 12 months, making fiscal year 2022 the deadliest year for migrants recorded by the U.S. government." This CBS report points out that these are only the deaths that were discovered; and that there are likely many more uncounted.
We see horrific reports of young women and girls, as young as nine years old, repeatedly raped by Mexican-cartel monsters and forced into sex slavery in our country.
Finally, and perhaps most disturbing, one can only imagine what is happening to the thousands of unaccompanied children being trafficked in , who just vanish.
Joe Biden and Kamala Harris bear the blame for all these evils. The scope and depth of the crimes to which they are accomplices, with respect to their open border, go far beyond those mentioned above, though these obvious ones should be plenty to warrant the introduction of articles of impeachment for both.
In a nutshell: President Biden and Border Czar Harris violate every immigration law on the books to initiate and facilitate the invasion of the United States by millions of foreign nationals -- some of whom pose a serious danger to all U.S. citizens; and some whom have already caused the deaths of tens of thousands of U.S. citizens through smuggled narcotics. If this does not meet the standard of "high crimes and misdemeanors," nothing does.
The case for impeachment against the president and vice president is compelling just on its surface. Their ouster in the Senate would be completely plausible if/when the facts are laid out before senators -- both Republican and Democrat, especially under scrutiny of the public. If it does reach that point, the House Speaker, now with presidential powers, could simply fire Secretary Mayorkas; and then go about the business of restoring law and order along the U.S./Mexico border.
"We have a real Constitutional crisis of an Executive Branch seeking to wage war against the American people," said former House Speaker, Newt Gingrich , who is clear on the predicament we are in. Texas Congressman, Chip Roy gets it too. He has stated openly that the Biden administration "is at war with the people of the United States." Both men have expressed their views to various news commentators. Surely each man is aware that Biden and Harris are only figureheads of a vast, international consortium , which is highly influenced by, or otherwise in league with, communist China . This unholy confederacy has been at silent war with the United States for decades. And today, it is on the verge of winning that war.
In November 2022, the American people fought back and elected a Republican majority in the House; if only by a slim margin. With that small victory, the people would be well justified to want this president, who is at war with them, removed from office as soon as possible. Waiting two years--until the next election--is not an option for the people if that election is going to be rigged against them. Impeachment, in this Congress, is the only viable answer if we are to preserve the blessings of liberty for those who come after us. Though, impeaching Mayorkas would be satisfying, it would also be a waste of time and energy. And impeaching President Joe Biden yields nothing if it leaves us with Kamala Harris. To get it right, both heads must roll.
Now in the majority, House Republicans hold hearings on the trove of nefarious circumstances surrounding this administration: Hunter's laptop; 'Document-gate'; COVID origins; Biden family money; Afghanistan; IRS mischief; balloons; China, China, China.... While it is important to get to the bottom of these matters, these probes may take months to bear fruit; particularly with the contentious obstruction of evidence that Republicans are likely to encounter from Democrats. In a way, these investigations are distractions from the one case of this administration's criminality where all the incriminating facts are readily visible--the "border crises." Little or no discovery is required. And it is the one case that could depose both President Biden and Kamala Harris in one pop.
House Republicans might be apprehensive about dual impeachment of a president and vice president, with fears that it won't pass muster in the Senate. There are, however, sound reasons to proceed with it anyway:
A Harvard-Harris poll, conducted between April 27 and 29 (2022) with 1,872 registered voters, found that most Americans polled were unaware of the severity of the invasion occurring at their Southern border. This due, in part, to the lack of coverage of the story by prominent news sources. But when told the true facts by the pollsters, eighty percent of respondents became strongly opposed to the Biden/Harris border policy. If nothing else, the high-profile public hearings of dual impeachment of president and vice president, with all the facts laid out on the table, would sound the alarm across the nation. Public opinion, (let's hope), still carries formidable weight in this nation.
House Republicans might want to take a lesson from the Democrats. Two can play that game.

Constant Government Lies Spark Resistance Movements
In the digital public square of social media, I have seen a noticeable uptick in biting memes and political cartoons calling out the U.S. government for its constant lies. In one example, a cyber-billboard screams, "I don't know if I'm being distracted by vaccine deaths so I don't notice inflation, or if inflation is the distraction to Ukraine money laundering, or if Ukraine is a distraction for rampant pedophilia, or if pedos are distracting me from election fraud." Clearly, that was produced before the great balloon scare gripped the nation.
Ah, but no sooner had China Joe proven once again how unsecured our open borders are by allowing a Chinese surveillance balloon to float above the continent's nuclear silos than I ran into a cartoon divided into four squares in which the same man was being hypnotized — first by a dangling coronavirus in 2020, then an mRNA "vaccine" shot in 2021, then a Ukraine flag in 2022, and finally an extraterrestrial spaceship in 2023.
Well done, meme masters and internet freethinkers ! Actually, corrupt Senator Harry Reid had started to play the UFO card a decade ago, so perhaps this cycle is just starting up once again. Uff da .
If you want to know what's really going on within a society, you don't run to the national newspapers or interview people with titles. You get out and talk to the people nobody else would dare seek. In the Internet Age, you look at what's being said by ordinary people on unremarkable chatrooms whose opinions are routinely overlooked. What I see today is a bubbling movement of frustration and anger that is as acidic as anything I've come across. Americans are furiously mad — but noticeably not in despair. People are not throwing their hands up in desperation; they're venting their rage at a corrupt system of government that has gotten out of control. They're not hiding in the shadows, whispering in hushed tones; they're screaming at the top of their lungs, just daring the Big Tech censors to blot out their (un)free speech. They're not allowing the State's "politically correct" priests and purveyors of officially sanctioned disinformation to shame them into silence; they're laughing in the spin doctors' faces and calling out the government's mass propaganda for what it is. That's refreshing!
One of my favorite lines from Martin Scorsese's The Departed comes from hard-nosed cop Mark Wahlberg when he says, "My theory on Feds is they're like mushrooms...feed 'em s--- and keep 'em in the dark." The unfortunate truth is that that zinger perfectly encapsulates the federal government's philosophy regarding the American people. Whether it is White House press secretary Karine Jean-Pierre claiming that Slow Joe is the "best communicator " around; Treasury secretary Janet Yellen insisting for over a year that skyrocketing inflation would be "transitory "; government economists redefining words to avoid admitting that we're in a recession; Homeland Security secretary Alejandro Mayorkas flat-out lying about the southern border being "secure"; or former chief of staff Ron Klain preposterously labeling the disastrous Afghanistan withdrawal, in which thirteen U.S. servicemembers lost their lives for no reason, a "tremendous humanitarian achievement ," the people occupying the highest positions of power and authority in the U.S. government do not bat an eye while telling the American people the most outrageous falsehoods drenched in risibly nauseating sanctimony. It is we , the American people, who are constantly left in the dark and fed foul-smelling filth.
To a certain extent, this is nothing new. Governments lie and abuse their powers all the time. Anyone who says otherwise either is from the government or benefits directly from the government's monopoly on creating official public "narratives." Not so long ago, people allied with the political left understood this fundamental truth. They railed against the "weapons of mass destruction" rallying cry that catapulted the U.S. into two concurrent wars; they called out the PATRIOT Act as an obvious violation of civil rights; they lambasted Wall Street, Big Pharma, the military-industrial complex, and government's petty regulation regime. They could never admit it to themselves, but deep down, most would have agreed with President Reagan's quip about the nine most terrifying words in the English language being "I'm from the government, and I'm here to help." In their hearts, most Americans of whatever ideological persuasion understood and appreciated Lord Acton's famous warning that "all power tends to corrupt; absolute power corrupts absolutely."
After seeing how effectively the communist vanguard of "woke" warriors have used carrot-and-stick "intersectionality " to co-opt culture, finance, industry, the Intelligence Community, the FBI and DOJ, the courts, and even the military, one thing is abundantly clear: Lord Acton was right! Also clear is that now that political leftists have control over essentially all levers of administrative, economic, and cultural power, they've become amnesiacs when it comes to the great British historian's ardent warnings against centralized government's eternal threat to personal liberty. How quickly the left's mantra on gay "marriage" went from "love is love" to "you must bake the cake!" How brazenly the left's pro-choice jingles went from "safe, legal, and rare" to "shout your abortion!" How cognitively dissonant the left's favorite new tactic of vilifying political enemies as "Russian appeasers" appears when played next to decades of leftist outcry against Senator Joe McCarthy's "red scare." When people without principle secure power, then power alone is worshiped as the highest principle.
Where does that leave us? Well, if we're being honest, it should leave us with a shared understanding that the system as it exists today cannot hold. We cannot be a nation whose rights and liberties are guaranteed by a governing constitution when lawmakers, presidents, bureaucratic agencies, and federal courts have redefined the Constitution's plain meaning into a whole new document. We cannot be a free people with a cherished Bill of Rights when freedom of speech, freedom of religion, freedom of assembly, freedom from unreasonable search and seizure, the right to self-defense, due process, and other supposedly secured rights are thrown out the window every time government agents declare a "health emergency" (especially now that "health" has been redefined to include everything under the sun, including "climate change" and "systemic racism"). We cannot pretend to have representative government when two private corporations posing as political parties exclude most Americans from office while promoting their own lackeys. We cannot feign to have a functioning Congress when most every member is a bought-and-paid-for stooge for some corporate special interest. We cannot profess to be wed to "democratic" principles when millions of unelected bureaucratic agents defended by an authoritarian and secretive national security Deep State run the show. We cannot make believe that we live with anything remotely like "free markets" when the value of the U.S. dollar continues to crumble, Congress spends more and more money it does not have, the private Federal Reserve bank of financial titans keeps printing currency, and the apologists for multinational behemoths claim that blue-collar towns across America must be destroyed in order to pay proper tribute to international treaties posing as bulwarks for "free trade." All these things are lies, and people of goodwill and conscience must call them out as such.
Believe it or not, that is what "the powers that be" fear the most: a self-assured population willing to see through all the poppycock and call it what it is. You didn't think our government just woke up one morning and decided to start an unprecedented mass-censorship campaign targeting "harmful" language" and "disinformation," did you? They did so because they noticed that the people have noticed that they're nothing but self-serving propagandists and liars. When people wake up in raw anger, real change is never far behind.

Mexican President Calls on U.S. Voters to Reject Border Security Candidates AP Photo/Andrew Harnik 2:20
Mexican President Andres Manuel Lopez Obrador (AMLO) praised President Joe Biden’s soft approach to immigration Tuesday, adding that his government plans to press American voters to not support candidates promising increased border security investments.
During his Tuesday morning news conference, AMLO congratulated Biden for not “mistreating” migrants and claimed the Hispanic population would remember at the polls the way that politicians treated migrants.
“We have a lot of respect for President Biden, among other things because he is the only one of the United States presidents of recent years who did not propose building walls,” Lopez Obrador said. “We give him credit for that, and we give credit to President Biden for no [immigration] raids.”
Lopez Obrador also criticized U.S. Congressmen for blocking Biden’s efforts to “regularize migrants” as had been promised during his campaign. The president also criticized the approach of Republicans calling for stronger border security.
“Because it is very easy to say, ‘We are going to militarize the border, we are going to put up walls,’ seeking easy applause,” AMLO said. “This policy will no longer work.”
Despite previously claiming that he follows a non-intervention approach, AMLO said his government would pressure U.S. voters to fight in favor of migrants.
“Because if there is the mistreatment of migrants and especially Mexicans, we are going to call not to vote for those parties and for those candidates — in the exercise of our freedoms,” Mexico’s president said .
