N.A.F.T.A. JOE BIDEN'S BORDER TSARINA KAMALA HARRIS - I'M GONNA BE YOUR PRESIDENT - JOE'S ILLEGALS WILL VOTE ME IN AND GEORGE SOROS WILL FUND MY OPEN BORDERS CAMPAIGN!

 

BIDEN PARTNERS WITH MEXICO TO ORCHESTRATE ANOTHER MASSIVE MEX INVASION OF DEM VOTING ILLEGALS.

https://mexicanoccupation.blogspot.com/2020/11/the-biden-amnesty-and-mexicos-planned.html

"Mexican president candidate Andrés Manuel López Obrador called for mass immigration to the United States, declaring it a "human right". We will defend all the (Mexican) invaders in the American," Obrador said, adding that immigrants "must leave their towns and find a life, job, welfare, and free medical in the United States."

"Fox’s Tucker Carlson noted Thursday that Obrador has 

previously proposed granting AMNESTY TO MEXICAN DRUG 

CARTELS. “America is now Mexico’s social safety net, and that’s

a very good deal for the Mexican ruling class,” Carlson added."

"Many Americans forget is that our country is located against a socialist failed state that is promising to descend even further into chaos – not California, the other one. And the Mexicans, having reached the bottom of the hole they have dug for themselves, just chose to keep digging by electing a new leftist presidente who wants to surrender to the cartels and who thinks that Mexicans have some sort of “human right” to sneak into the U.S. and demographically reconquer it." KURT SCHLICHTER

As in 2016, Democrats advance a corrupt ruling-class candidate. Like the dead man Gary Ernst, Democrats want people to vote for Joe Biden so they can swap him out for Kamala Harris, already a beneficiary of voter fraud and with the exception of Xavier Becerra possibly the worst attorney general in California history.

Kamala Harris Urges Illegal Migrants to Help Elect Joe Biden

Sen. Kamala Harris promised Sunday to reduce detention space for migrants as she asked an illegal immigrant activist to help Joe Biden win the election.

BLOG EDITOR: WHY DIDN’T LAWYER KAMALA HARRIS TELL THE ILLEGAL TO GO HOME??? SHE’S THE ONE WHO AS ATTORNEY GENERAL OF CA DECLARED THAT NEARLY HALF THE MURDERS IN MEXIFORNIA ARE BY MEX GANGS!

“I’m undocumented … I can’t vote …What can we do during this election to help make sure that we get you elected?” asked Astrid Silva, who was brought into the United States as a child by her illegal migrant parents.

“You can tell people who can vote what life is like for you now, and what life can be like,” Vice President nominee Harris told the Nevada-based political organizer who runs the pro-amnesty Dream Big Nevada group, adding that:

We are committed to shutting down private detention centers and ending policies that have been about separating children from their parents at the border.

Harris’s comments may be a coded message to would-be illegal migrants and their supportive legal-immigrant relatives.

For example, if implemented, Harris’s promise to start “shutting down private detention centers” could cripple border enforcement. If the enforcement agency does not have commercial prisons to hold detainees prior to their asylum hearings, the agency would be forced to release waves of job-seeking migrants into the U.S. labor market.

Similarly, Harris’s promise to end “policies … about separating children” echoes the media-magnified demand by pro-migration activists that officials release migrant mothers and children when they cross the border. That demand would let migrant families freely travel to relatives — including their illegal migrant husbands and fathers — who are working illegally in the United States.

Last week in Nevada, I caught up with my friend @Astrid_NV, to discuss the Biden-Harris plan for immigration reform and how Dreamers can make a difference in this election.

Like Biden, Harris pushed the Cold War “Nation of Immigrants” claim, even though only about 10 percent of people in the United States are legal immigrants:

We want to have a president who understands we are a nation of immigrants. This is a country that was built and that has derived its strength from immigrants coming here over the generations.

Harris also tried to blur the legal and civic differences between illegal migrants, legal immigrants, and American citizens. For example, she told Silva:

Define who you are, and you tell the world who you are. Don’t let anybody ever put you in a box because they have a limited perspective on who can do what and who can be one.

[…]

We are all in this together. And so, chin up, shoulders back, right? We speak our truth and know that there will always be people applauding and supporting that even if you can’t see them at that one moment, know that there are so many of us who are supporting your leadership and the power of your voice. It’s really important.

Harris also claimed President Donald Trump vilified immigrants: “We’ve seen under the current president the kind of vitriol, the kind of hate, the vilification of immigrants in such a horrible way.”

But a Washington Post poll showed in April that Latinos are the strongest advocates for a near-total halt to legal immigration during the coronavirus epidemic and economic crash.

Biden’s 2020 plan promises to “reassert America’s commitment to asylum-seekers and refugees,” wipe out Trump’s asylum reforms, bar any deportations for 100 days, and end migration enforcement against illegal aliens unless they commit a felony.

Joe Biden’s asylum and open-border policies will destroy the American middle class by releasing millions of foreign migrants into the United States, Stephen Miller told reporters October 28. https://t.co/BaeLSIud7y

Biden also wants to let companies import more visa workers, let mayors import temporary workers, and allow an unlimited flow of foreign graduates through U.S. universities into white-collar jobs. Biden would “exempt from any cap [the] recent graduates of Ph.D. programs in STEM fields.”

Biden also wants to accelerate the inflow of chain migration migrants and dramatically accelerate the inflow of poor refugees to at least 125,000 per year.

“The influx of low wage workers from all across the world will drive down incomes, drive down wages, deplete the middle class, bankrupt Social Security, bankrupt Medicare, bankrupt Medicaid, bankrupt federal entitlements, overcrowd schools, and overcrowd every hospital in the middle of a pandemic,” White House aide Stephen Miller told reporters on October 28.

“It is an assault on reason, it is an assault on law enforcement, and it’s an assault on the very idea of having a country, having a Republic,” Miller added. “This is not about left or right or Center. This is about between having a country, or not even having a country.”


Illegal Alien Invasion from Sea to Shining Sea!

What do Massachusetts and Tennessee have in common? These two unique states each have a current population of 7 million people. Then there’s Arizona, which is slightly larger, with 7.3 million, while Ohio is just a bit smaller, with 6.8 million population.

Keep those state populations in mind every time you hear or read that, since January 2021, the Democrat Biden politburo has allowed seven-million-plus illegal aliens to enter the United States of America. This is a staggering number of people who have been allowed to illegally waltz into the United States, with more invading every day (and these are just the ones in the official count).                           

Americans of all political factions are angry that seven-million-plus illegal aliens have strolled into our country since Joey took office. Who knows how many more will be here before the year is over…in fact before you finish reading this column? They are eager to enjoy Marxist Democrat hospitality: free lodging, free medical, free food, free education, free iPhones, free…free…free. In some states, the welcome also includes driver’s licenses, voting privileges, and work permits.

How much are you as American citizens getting for free?

How much are our valiant veterans getting for free?

Are you getting anything free when utilities send rate increase notices? Does the supermarket give you anything for free when grocery shopping? Can you get a free gallon of gas at the service station?

Elected congressional officials and their staffs of all parties are supposed to represent the American people and our nation’s sovereignty. However, many seem more concerned about Ukraine’s borders, with only a few doing little more than paying lip service about the horrors taking place at America’s open southern border. From human trafficking to drug infestation, Republicans (from moderate to MAGA) should gather together at the Texas southern border and stand in solidarity with the heroic efforts of Texas Governor Greg Abbott, who is doing his best to stop the invasion at the Rio Grande that borders Mexico.

Please do not tell me that the wall should have been completed during the Trump presidency. We would then have to discuss how two leadership RINOs (Republicans in Name Only)—Speaker of the House Paul Ryan and Senate Leader Mitch McConnell—did their best with fellow RINOs (also referred to as “Vichy Republicans”) to thwart the Trump agenda, which included building and repairing the border wall.

The Marxist Democrat Biden administration appears to have little to no concern about the invasion at our southern border. Its time and our money are spent indicting President Trump on ridiculous charges and arresting Patriots who peacefully walked into the U.S. Capitol on January 6, often through doors held open by U.S. Capitol Police. It seems our government doesn’t want to know anything about the seven-million-plus illegal aliens entering our country.

However, American Patriots want to know if these illegal aliens:

  • Were released from prisons and mental hospitals and instructed to go to the United States?
  • Were trained in sabotage ready to destroy our electric grid? Water supply? Food supply? Rail lines? Communications systems?
  • Are part of a drug cartel?
  • Are participating in human trafficking?
  • Are waiting for instructions to start armed protests as we’ve seen occur in other nations invaded by illegal aliens?

It would also be good to know how much the U.S. federal government spends to send (by plane, train, and bus) illegal aliens to cities (not Blue cities, obviously) throughout the United States.

To many Americans, the only thing the often-incoherent Joe Biden wants to know is where he can dump seven-million-plus illegal. The Biden administration’s goal is to spread the illegal alien invasion from sea to shining sea.

Maybe, just maybe, though, the tide is turning back to Patriotism.

Recently re-elected Dallas Mayor Eric Johnson, who is black, announced he is switching to Republican. In his Wall Street Journal op-ed announcing the political party change Johnson wrote:

Our cities desperately need the genuine commitment to these principles (as opposed to the inconsistent, poll-driven commitment of many Democrats) that has long been a defining characteristic of the GOP.  

In other words, American cities need Republicans—and Republicans need American cities. When my political hero Theodore Roosevelt was born, only 20% of Americans lived in urban areas. By the time he was elected president, that share had doubled to 40%. Today, it stands at 80%. As America’s cities go, so goes America.

New York City Mayor Eric Adams, who is black, recently exclaimed at a town hall meeting:

Let me tell you something New Yorkers, never in my life have I had a problem that I did not see an ending to—I don’t see an ending to this. This issue will destroy New York City.

Joe Biden doesn’t seem to care. Or perhaps, as many have observed, Biden doesn’t have the mental ability to care. Die Weltwoche, a popular weekly Swiss newspaper that has been published since 1933, recently interviewed Tucker Carlson, who said in an article entitled, “They’re All Afraid”:

 ...Joe Biden has dementia. He's not capable of speaking a complete sentence much less running the largest organization in human history, which is the US government. The whole premise is ridiculous, and now they're telling us? He's 80 years old. He can barely speak. He can barely walk. And he's going to run, again, for president of the United States while there's a war going on? The whole thing is so demented that we're moving to the point where they're not trying to convince anybody. They're just trying to suppress and arrest people who ask questions. They've arrested dozens of people, of political opponents, not for committing crimes, but for opposing them in the past month. Dozens in the past month. 

Alarmed Americans are watching in horror as seven-million-plus illegal invade the United States of America from sea to shining sea, equaling either Massachusetts or Tennessee. Should Americans conclude that the Democrat Biden administration (with its two-tiered justice system) goal is to destroy America’s Judeo-Christian constitutional republic?

Today, call, write, or phone your representative and two senators and respectfully but firmly demand that Congress “close the damn border!

On Planet Kamala, climate change, not 7% interest rates, is why young people aren't buying homes

What's new on Planet Kamala?

Seems climate change has struck again, and Joe Biden's vice president claims that that's why young people aren't buying homes.

According to the Washington Free Beacon:

Vice President Kamala Harris said young people aren't buying homes because of "climate anxiety," not mentioning the sky-high interest rates under her boss, President Joe Biden.

"Young leaders" suffer from "climate anxiety," which is "their fear about … whether they should have children, whether they should ever think about buying a home for fear that it might be wiped out because of extreme weather occurrences," Harris said in a Wednesday interview with an Allentown, Pa., news station.

Which is laughable. All the young wokesters she's talking about have to do is look at President Obama's coastal mansion-buying spree. Guys like Obama are pretty sure the old mansion isn't going to wash into the sea based on global warming. None of them are. And in any case, cheaper housing is to be had on higher ground.

But it's not cheap or even marginally affordable either. Housing prices have hit record highs under Joe Biden. To combat rampant inflation, the Fed has hiked interest rates more than ten times since Joe Biden got into the saddle. Joe spends and the Fed hikes, and the inflation is still hitting us. That's driven housing prices to an all-time high, and the cost of buying one to even worse highs, because the cost of financing one with a mortgage is now more than 7%.

Mortgage rates last month hit an all-time high, with the interest rate on a 30-year, fixed-rate home loan skyrocketing to 7.09 percent, NPR reported.

"A lot of buyers have been priced out," National Association of Home Builders chief economist Robert Dietz told NPR. "If you don't have access to the bank of mom and dad to get that down payment, it's very challenging."

No kidding. But that's not something the Biden administration would like to highlight, not when global warming is there to serve as is sin-eater for all of its reign-of-error policy blunders.

So now the old gaslighting is continuing, and Harris is starting to sound as though she lives on another planet. This time, it's around why young people don't want to buy homes. Apparently she thinks young people can just print up money the way the Fed does when they need a home, but they don't want to, because climate change, poor things.

This has to be one of the stupidest and most dishonest claims the Bidenites have ever made and don't think the young who have faced these mortgage rates aren't going to notice. Polls show they are fleeing to President Trump in droves.

Failed: New York City is a Collective Slum

Now that New York City is, as a result of its own decision to become a sanctuary city for illegal migrants, suffering a widespread housing shortage, its slumlord-in-chief (Mayor Eric Adams) proposes to address the problem with single room occupancy (SRO) accommodations.

Adams is proposing rules that allow for new single-room occupancy (SRO) housing, a type of dorm-style apartment complex where tenants have their own private studios but typically share kitchens and bathrooms.

This article in Nextcity.org elaborates,

Today, SROs are often referred to as modern-day tenements: Substandard, overcrowded, dark firetraps that represent the worst housing the city has to offer.

There is a direct connection between these tenements and illegal migrants, emphasis is mine.

Largely concentrated in the far-flung reaches of Queens, the Bronx, and eastern Brooklyn, many of the residents of these illegal spaces are immigrants–often undocumented… Essentially, unless you’re living in a multi-million dollar penthouse, all of New York City is a slum.

What, meanwhile, is the difference between a slumlord and New York's City Council? Slumlords accept only tenants who pay the rent, while NYC squanders $300 a day on hotel rooms for illegal migrants who pay nothing. New York City is an outhouse, and I am using the family-friendly version of the word Donald Trump was accused of using to describe certain countries, that forced a 95 year-old veteran of the Korean War out of his nursing home to make room for illegal migrants while it seeks to reintroduce tenement housing for working Americans. In fairness to landlords, some try to keep their places clean and safe but others do not.

Also, in fairness to millions of people who have the misfortune to work and pay taxes in New York City, "outhouse" refers to its irresponsible governance rather than its legal inhabitants. If you wait tables, work a factory job, or practice a useful trade in New York, you may have to pay hundreds of dollars a month for a substandard, overcrowded, dark firetrap. If you're an illegal migrant who is unwilling to follow our country's rules to apply for asylum because you know you are not eligible for asylum, New York's City Council will put you up in a $300 hotel room with its own toilet and bathing facilities. In fact, if you're a citizen or legal immigrant who is working one or more jobs to make ends meet, you might do better to identify as an illegal migrant to get the free hotel room. As New York is a sanctuary city, you will not be questioned further and Immigration and Naturalization Services (INS) will not be notified.

It is telling, meanwhile, that even New York's Democrat Governor, Kathy Hochul, has had enough. "The governor said [the right to shelter law] was never meant to ensure 'an unlimited, universal right or obligation on the city to have to house literally the entire world.'"

Who Wants to Live, Work, or Do Business in a Giant Slum?

Suppose you've just finished high school or college, and you want to go work somewhere. Why should you work in a giant tenement where you have to pay a third or even more of your income to live in a SRO, and also pay New York's inflated prices for food and every other necessity?

Suppose you're an employer, and New York City's diversion of money from its police department to $300 hotel rooms for illegal migrants means looters feel free to trash your workplace like swarms of locusts devastating a farmer's field. When arrests were made, NYC usually dropped the charges or downgraded them to minor misdemeanors that carry no jail time. Even if your insurance covers the losses, the insurance companies will raise premiums throughout the entire area due to the obviously higher risk. Insurance may or may not cover losses due to business interruptions such as having to clean up the broken glass and smashed display cases, and replace the merchandise the looters and vandals have ruined only to have the looters come back to clean you out again.

Target has in fact closed numerous stores in failed Democrat-run cities whose names are closely associated with Black Lives Matter-related riots. "The stores set to close include one in Harlem, N.Y; two in Seattle, Wash.; three near San Francisco and Oakland, Calif.; and three in Portland, Ore." The reasons cited include organized retail theft, but it's to be noted that the perpetrators are far less likely to try this in a small town which is where employers ought to move their facilities and their workers.  

Move It to a Small Town

It is also to be noted that the median rent in San Francisco is $2,200 a month or $26,400 a year which is unaffordable by anybody who works an entry level job. San Francisco's high living costs have resulted in an $18.07 an hour minimum wage, which buys about what $10.10 an hour  ($18.07 divided by 1.79) buys in flyover country where supposed bitter, small town people cling to guns and religion. Now, if you're an employer, you have to squander an additional $8 an hour plus employment taxes, and add that waste to the cost of whatever goods or services you create, but it doesn't buy your workers more actual value. If you move the jobs to flyover country or a small town, and pay your entry level people $12 an hour, that's a de facto 20 percent pay increase because it buys $12 of goods and services as opposed to the $10 or so that $18 an hour buys in San Francisco. The same principle applies, of course, to New York where $20 an hour buys what $8.77 an hour buys in a small town.

To put this in perspective, $71,924 a year buys in NYC what $30,000 a year buys in Columbia, Tennessee, the small town in Jason Aldean's video. If you're the employer, your $30,000 job costs almost $72,000 if you move it to NYC, and your employee doesn't get a better standard of living for his or her money. You're also paying more to own or rent real estate in NYC, and you also have New York State's and NYC's inflated income taxes. Intelligent customers will realize, meanwhile, that the cost of this waste is built into the price of anything they buy from New York, San Francisco, Los Angeles, and other pay-more-get-less outhouse cities.

This should put to rest any further questions as to whether the Democrat party is still the party of the working American and the senior citizen. New York's slumlords, and I mean its Mayor and City Council, propose to house working people in "Substandard, overcrowded, dark firetraps that represent the worst housing the city has to offer" while they squander $300 a day on hotel rooms for illegal migrants, and divert money from senior citizen meal programs for this purpose as well. When working Americans wake up to this fact, and more and more are doing so every day, we can look forward to a Red tidal wave in 2024 that will put the House, Senate, and presidency in responsible hands.

House of Horrors: 11 Illegal Aliens Among Men Accused of Gang Raping Girls in Small Minnesota Town

Oscar Ernesto Luna / House of Horrors: 11 Illegal Aliens Among Men Accused of Gang Raping Girls in Small Minnesota Town
Hennepin County Jail

At least 11 illegal alien men are accused of having been involved in a house of horrors in the small town of Bemidji, Minnesota, where at least three young girls were drugged, tied up, and gang raped, according to local law enforcement.

Late last month, an 11-year-old girl presented herself at the Sanford Bemidji Medical Center’s Emergency Department to report that she had been sexually assaulted. The case was then turned over to the Bemidji Police Department where officers began looking for the residence where the alleged sexual assault occurred.

Police soon identified a residence at 1821 America Court NW in Bemidji as the location of the alleged sexual assault. The victim said she was staying with an adult male relative when he put her in a car with other men and she had a bag put over her head.

The men allegedly brought the victim to the residence at 1821 America Court NW, pushed her down a flight of stairs, forced her to consume alcohol, and tied her up. The victim alleges a man nicknamed “Panda,” later identified as 22-year-old Oscar Ernesto Luna of Mission, Texas, raped her while four men watched.

The victim said she was then gang raped by an unknown number of men.

Police said the victim described a house of horrors where another young girl was tied up and unconscious in a closet of the bedroom and that a 16-year-old girl was also tied up. Two other girls were also tied up, the victim said, as she was gang raped.

Luna, whom police identified through specific tattoos, was arrested on a warrant out of Hennepin County and also charged with first-degree criminal sexual conduct.

In addition, police said many men were found at the residence when they raided it — including 11 illegal aliens who were turned over to the Department of Homeland Security (DHS).

Police have said the investigation is ongoing.

Michael Savage: Alex Marlow’s ‘Breaking Biden’ Is a ‘Mindblower,’ ‘Frightening’

Conservative talk radio legend Michael Savage lavished praised on Breitbart Editor-in-Chief Alex Marlow’s new book Breaking Biden: Exposing the Hidden Forces and Secret Money Machine Behind Joe Biden, His Family, and His Administrationdescribing the painstakingly-researched manuscript as a “mindblower.”

Savage made the laudatory remarks ahead of a wide-ranging interview with Marlow about the book.

“It’s an important book, and I’m going to read you something from the book jacket about ‘Breaking Biden: Exposing the Hidden Forces and Secret Money Machine Behind Joe Biden, His Family, and His Administration.’ It’s a mindblower,” Savage declared.


“We learn over [Biden’s] 50-year career lifer, Joey-boy Biden, has become known for his gaffes, lies, and general creepiness. But Marlow says it’s not his policies failing or his absolute lack of accountability that has lead to his historically-low poll numbers,” the radio veteran continued. “It’s the presumption that something more insidious is lying under the surface, and this book is a crash of lighting exposing the Biden political machine in a way that was previously unknown. I can’t wait to learn what [Marlow] exposes. The secret cadre of consultants running Joe’s world, how Joe sold America’s intellectual property to Communist China, how the whole Biden family bagged cash off the family name.”

“This is unbelievable, this is unreal,” he concluded.

Listen to Savage’s complete interview with Marlow here.

On Tuesday, Marlow released a report detailing one of the book’s revelations: that the China-linked University of Delaware’s partnership with President Joe Biden was known as the “baby” of the president’s embattled son Hunter Biden and was part of the family’s “wealth creation” strategy.

Marlow writes:

While media reports have focused University of Pennsylvania’s Biden Center, less attention has been paid to University of Delaware’s Biden Institute, even though these two “institutes” were opened on the same day and meant to serve a shared goal of being incubators of advancing globalism and leftism. The UPenn Biden Center became a pipeline for longtime Biden allies into his administration, and, as previously reported by Peter Schweizer, proceeded a suspicious influx in Chinese donations to the university.

[…]

On December 11, 2018, the University of Delaware announced that it was naming its public policy school after Vice President Biden. Emails show that this move was orchestrated by members of UD’s Biden Institute. It was on the day of the announcement that Hunter Biden received a text message from his aunt and former Joe Biden campaign manager, Valerie Owens (who chairs the Biden Institute), crediting him for the deepening partnership with between the Biden family and the university: “Bravo Hunter—UD was your baby and you made sure I was part of it.”

Even before the release of Breaking Biden, the book was already raising eyebrows from high-profile figures in the media, including Fox News’ Sunday Morning Futures host Maria Bartiromo.

Speaking with Bartiromo, Marlow implied that a Chinese firm getting our strategic oil reserves makes little or no sense save for the fact that there is a connection with Hunter Biden.

“There is no reason for Chinese to get U.S. [strategic] oil aside from to benefit the commercial interest of the Biden family,” Marlow judged.

“This is so stunning, Alex,” Bartiromo responded.

Breaking Biden is available now in hardcover, eBook, and audiobook read by the author.


Poll: Most Americans Say Homelessness Is Getting Worse

Most Americans believe homelessness is a severe problem, and they feel it has gotten worse over the past two years, according to the latest Rasmussen Reports survey.

The national survey found that 87 percent of respondents believe homelessness is a serious problem. That includes 61 percent who say the problem is very serious. Only nine percent say homelessness is not a serious problem.

According to the Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD), around 582,000 people experienced homelessness in 2022, 18 for every 10,000 Americans, up 2,000 people since 2020.

The rate of homelessness has risen about six percent nationally in the U.S. since 2017, according to the National Alliance to End Homelessness.

In 2023, the problem grew at a faster rate.

Data reviewed and published by the Wall Street Journal in August shows that more than 577,000 Americans are homeless today, representing an 11 percent increase compared to the same time last year — an alarming pace.

The article noted that the increase “would represent by far the biggest recorded increase since the government started tracking comparable numbers in 2007.

“The next highest increase was a 2.7% jump in 2019, excluding an artificially high increase last year caused by pandemic counting interruptions,” it continued.

Rasmussen found that majorities of each political category believe homelessness is a very serious problem, with 64 percent of Republicans, 62 percent of independents, and 57 percent of Democrats agreeing.

The Rasmussen poll adds that, by a slight majority, Americans feel that homelessness should be a local responsibility. About 36 percent say local governments should handle the issue, while 30 percent believe it should be a federal issue. Sixteen percent say they are unsure.

Unsurprisingly, at 40 percent, Democrats feel the federal government should handle the problem. That compares to only 22 percent of Republicans and 26 percent of independents who think the federal government should be responsible for dealing with homelessness.

Women are more likely (39 percent) than men (32 percent) to say that the states should be primarily responsible for homelessness.

Regarding local responsibility, the party affiliation breakdown shows that 41 percent of Republicans, 39 percent of independents, and 28 percent of Democrats say that state governments should be responsible for the issue.

Majorities also agree that the problem is getting worse. Among Republicans, 77 percent say it has worsened over the last two years. Forty-six percent of Democrats and 71 percent of unaffiliated Americans agree it has gotten worse.

‘Untenable’: Illinois Gov Joins List of ‘Sanctuary’ Dems Who Don’t Love Migrants So Much Anymore

October 3, 2023

Illinois governor J.B. Pritzker (D.) sent a letter to President Joe Biden calling the migrant crisis in his state "untenable" and slamming the president for his lack of help.

"Unfortunately, the welcome and aid Illinois has been providing to these asylum seekers has not been matched with support by the federal government," Pritzker wrote on Monday. "Most critically, the federal government's lack of intervention and coordination at the border has created an untenable situation for Illinois."

Pritzker asked the federal government to centralize coordination of border management and take greater accountability for overseeing where migrants go once Customs and Border Protection authorities release them into the country. He also requested that the federal government eliminate fees for temporary protected status applications and expedite work permits for migrants.

Pritzker also attacked Republican politicians who have been sending busloads of migrants to Illinois and other blue states.

"For my state which has been targeted with busloads of asylum seekers by the border politicians seeking to increase the partisan divide, this crisis has strained the already stretched human services network we have attempted to rebuild in our recovery from the pandemic," Pritzker wrote.

Pritzker's letter represents a shift in his previously welcoming attitude toward migrants. In 2021, he signed an executive order to make Illinois the "most welcoming state in the nation," requiring local officials to end partnerships with Immigration and Customs Enforcement authorities.

"Throughout my governorship I've directed my administration to adopt policies that make Illinois a welcoming state for immigrants, and I'm proud to sign these accountability measures into law to advance our cause," the governor said in a press release announcing the order.

Pritzker is not the only Democrat to shift away from a previously welcoming attitude toward illegal immigrants. The day before Pritzker sent his letter, New York governor Kathy Hochul called for securing the border and quadrupling the number of Border Patrol positions.

Hochul in 2021 told migrants that "you’re welcome with open arms, and we’ll work to keep you safe."

NY Gov Blames Republicans for Border Being “Too Open Right Now”

Hochul is stupid, but even she isn't this stupid.

New York’s Gov. Hochul is stupid, but even she isn’t this stupid. The trouble is that no New York Democrat can actually state the obvious which is that the Biden administration’s policy of keeping the border open and shipping illegal invaders across the country is behind this disaster. NYC’s Mayor Eric Adams has come closest to saying it and come under fire for it. Gov. Hochul is further away from the crisis and she can’t afford to be less popular.

So Hochul can suggest that the border needs to be controlled, but that it’s the fault of Republicans that it isn’t.

“Well, we want them to have a limit on who can come across the border. It is too open right now,” Hochul said. “People coming from all over the world are finding their way through simply saying they need asylum. And the majority of them seem to be ending up in the streets of New York. And that is a real problem for New York City, 125,000 newly arrived individuals. And we are being taxed.”

“We are always so proud of the fact that New York has the Statue of Liberty in our harbor. We are one of the most diverse places on Earth because of our welcoming nature, and it’s in our DNA to welcome immigrants. But there has to be some limits in place. And Congress has to put more controls at the border and not in this budget threat, shutdown threat, talk about eliminating positions for Border Patrol when we actually need to double or quadruple those numbers. So, get back to work and do your jobs,” the governor added.

The Border Patrol is worse than useless when its job has been redefined as welcoming in illegal alien migrant invaders and handing them court dates in 2035 so that meanwhile they can, as Gov. Hochul and every Democrat wants, to give them quasi-legal status enabling them to work here. Long before their court dates, they’ll have kids here and will become undeportable.

Gov. Hochul has come around to the idea that there needs to be some limitations on open borders now that her state is a border state, but the only thing she can do is repeat a mantra blaming Republicans for the mess.

The Biden administration fought to dismantle Title 42, it has sued Arizona and Texas to force them to dismantle any border security that inhibits the migrant invaders, and it has opened the border as wide as possible.

This isn’t a budget problem. The problem is that the Biden administration keeps drilling a hole in the boat while Democrats try to blame Republicans for not working with Republicans to fix the hole.

Biden’s Intentional Crisis

The great invasion of the USA.

The continuing incursion of illegal border crossers into the United States is the most astonishing story in American politics. There have been days recently in which 10,000 people crossed illegally into the country — and remember, in a long-ago era, when Barack Obama was president, a tenth of that was considered a crisis.

The current emergency can be attributed entirely to President Joe Biden. In word and deed, from the 2020 campaign on, Biden sent a message to would-be illegal border crossers around the world: If you come to the United States, you will be allowed to stay. And millions have.

Lately, though, Biden’s welcome-to-illegal-crossers policy has become a burden on some important Democrats. New York City Mayor Eric Adams is screaming about the arrival of an estimated 110,000 new asylum seekers in his city. The cost of caring for the new residents will “destroy New York City,” Adams said. And even though Adams tried to blame Texas Republican Gov. Greg Abbott for sending illegal border crossers to New York, the fact is that Abbott has sent just 13,000. In any event, the presence of all 110,000 in New York is the result of Biden policies.

Now that some Democrats are complaining, news reports say Biden is beginning to feel some pressure. Can he do something to lower the heat? In response, Biden has come up with a way to address the problem: Rush more inadmissible migrants into the United States.

It seems crazy, and it is. But it is more than that. It is also perhaps the best indicator we have of Biden’s intentions in the border crisis. Look at the 10,000-a-day flow of illegal crossers over the border. The president of the United States has the authority and means to protect the U.S. border. The only way a president would allow this to go on for years is if the president wanted this to happen. And it appears that Biden does, in fact, want this to happen.

Early in the border crisis, I wrote, “The president is not trying to stop the flow of illegal crossers. Instead, he is trying to accommodate the flow, scrambling to find housing and living arrangements for those coming in. The message has gotten out to the world, and the world is coming.”

And now Biden is going one step further. With the flow at historic levels, he will use U.S. government resources to speed it up, not to slow it down. This is an entirely intentional crisis.

The New York Times reports that nearly half a million migrants from Venezuela will “be allowed to immediately apply for work authorization.” The purpose of the move, the Times said, is this: “By allowing them to legally earn income, the change could alleviate the costly burden of housing the refugees in major cities across the country. The migrants also will be protected from deportation for at least the next 18 months.”

Maybe that will mollify Mayor Adams for a while. It will certainly increase the incentive for Venezuelans to come to the U.S. as soon as possible. But how, one might ask, did the migrants arrive in the United States from Venezuela in the first place? The answer lies with a Biden administration program known as CBP One. It is what is called a “parole” program, that is, it is designed to release migrants into the United States quickly and without public scrutiny. This is from the Center for Immigration Studies: “A little-known part of the Biden administration’s CBP One parole program permits inadmissible aliens to make an appointment to fly directly to airports in the interior of the United States, bypassing the border altogether.”

The Biden program “allows migrants to take commercial passenger flights from foreign countries straight to their American cities of choice.” The program applies to migrants from Venezuela, Cuba, Nicaragua and Haiti. The migrants, according to the Center, “request ‘advance travel authorizations’ through the CBP One mobile app and take commercial flights (‘at their own expense’) directly into U.S. airports, where U.S. Customs officers parole them into the nation, sight unseen, and in numbers publicly unknown.”

The numbers are big. Through the Freedom of Information Act, the Center for Immigration Studies, which supports stricter immigration laws, got information on the flights so far in 2023. The administration has allowed in 221,456 migrants through the program this year. There were 29,120 in May, 29,506 in June, 28,669 in August, and so on. The flow continues.

Where are they going? The administration would not disclose which airports have received the migrants. If any local leaders want to know how thousands of new people are arriving in their towns virtually overnight, courtesy of the U.S. government — well, if they want to know that, they can’t find out.

Now the White House is offering immediate work authorization, not just to migrants who crossed the land border illegally but to those who took part in the administration’s secretive flight program. That will surely lure more to come, whether by foot over the border or to an undisclosed airport. If you ever hear an administration official say that President Biden is trying to get the border situation under control — don’t believe it.

Gov. Kathy Hochul Looks to Fill 18,000 New York Jobs with Border Crossers

NEW YORK, NEW YORK - SEPTEMBER 13: New York Gov. Kathy Hochul speaks during a briefing on the new BA.2.86 COVID-19 variant on September 13, 2023 in New York City. While BA.2.86 has not yet been detected in New York, Hochul indicated that people should take precautions as the vaccines …

Gov. Kathy Hochul (D-NY) is looking to fill more than 18,000 jobs across New York with newly arrived border crossers and illegal aliens, as about 385,000 New Yorkers remain unemployed.

Hochul held a press conference on Monday, touting that her administration had worked with employers across New York to identify more than 18,000 unfilled jobs that could be taken by border crossers and illegal aliens.

“We have a two-for-one solution here. Now we have all these people here and all these jobs that are open, marry these two together, and we can solve these problems,” Hochul said, celebrating illegal immigration as a victory for business.

Most jobs identified by Hochul’s administration are in food service, healthcare, manufacturing, administrative support, construction, retail, and business service, among other industries.

The announcement comes more than a month after Hochul said she was creating the jobs program for border crossers and illegal aliens, even as hundreds of thousands of New Yorkers remain on the labor market sidelines.

Last month, President Joe Biden caved to lobbying from Hochul and New York City Mayor Eric Adams (D) by announcing that his administration would work to expedite work permits for border crossers and illegal aliens released into the United States interior.

More than 125,000 border crossers and illegal aliens have arrived in the sanctuary state since the spring of last year. This is a fraction, though, of the total released into the U.S. interior from the border by the Biden administration.

Monthly, Biden’s Department of Homeland Security (DHS) releases more than 60,000 border crossers and illegal aliens into American communities.

NYC Hospital Official: Dealing with Migrant Surge ‘Hardest Work that I’ve Ever Done’ 

During portions of interviews with NBC News aired on Monday’s broadcast of “NBC Nightly News,” Senior Vice President of Ambulatory Care and Population Health at New York City Health + Hospitals Dr. Ted Long, who was also part of New York City’s Test & Treat Corps during the COVID pandemic, stated that caring for the surge of migrants in the city “has been the hardest work” he’s ever done, and Randye Retkin, Director of New York Legal Assistance’s LegalHealth division stated that the surge has filled up legal clinics and forced clinics to turn people away.

NBC News Homeland Security Correspondent Julia Ainsley began her report by stating that officials told NBC News that “over 200,000 illegal crossings at the southern border last month, and a record 3 million migrants crossed the border in the last year.”

She added, “Across public hospitals in New York City, a quarter of the patients are now migrants. Over the last year, nearly 30,000 visits by migrants and 300 new babies born to migrant moms.”

She then played a clip of Long stating, “This has been the hardest work that I’ve ever done, but it’s been the most impactful work that I’ve ever done.”

Ainsley then said, “And most of the visits to the taxpayer-funded legal clinic here are by migrants.”

She then played a clip of Retkin saying, “Our clinics are full and there are waiting lists and people are turning people away or referring them to other places.”

Ainsley then added, “Randye Retkin from New York’s Legal Assistance Group says so many migrants are asking for legal help on asylum representation and healthcare access, now she says American citizens who need legal assistance with issues like eviction and insurance have to wait up to ten weeks.”

Exclusive: Biden Admin Moves 2K Migrants from Packed Border Facility to Release Elsewhere in Texas

EAGLE PASS, Texas — The Biden administration is in the process of moving 2,000 migrants from an overcrowded Border Patrol processing facility in Eagle Pass, Texas, according to a CBP source. The mass transfer of detainees began early Monday and is aimed to alleviate the strain on Border Patrol facilities and a non-government shelter overwhelmed by the influx of more than 1,000 migrants into Eagle Pass daily.

As reported by Breitbart Texas, the sudden surge of migrants began two weeks prior as more than 1,500 migrants crossed the Rio Grande within six hours. The migrants traveled to the border area from southern and central Mexico by freight train. Within days, single groups of mostly Venezuelan migrants numbering more nearly 3,000 strong arrived almost daily in the same manner.

Although the pace of the entries has slowed in recent days to, at times, 1,000 to 1,500 migrants daily, the surge has brought detention numbers to record levels. At the height of the current migrant surge on Thursday, more than 20,000 migrants were being detained by the Border Patrol nationwide, according to the CBP source. The soft-sided processing facility in Eagle Pass, commonly referred to by Border Patrol agents as “Firefly,” is meant to accommodate 1,000 migrant detainees. It has been holding roughly 5,000 migrants of late.

Photos provided to Breitbart Texas by Congressman Tony Gonzales (R-TX) showed hundreds of migrants cramped into the facility during a recent border visit to the beleaguered border city to examine the situation. During a post-visit press conference, Gonzales spoke about the latest large influx of migrants into his district. Gonzales said, “My message is clear – end catch and release, stop using asylum as a hall pass, and put our Border Patrol Agents back on the frontlines.”

As the transfers proceeded, Breitbart Texas posted at the bank of the Rio Grande, where a continuous flow of migrants into the city continues. The overwhelming surge of almost 20,000 migrants into the city in two weeks resulted in the closure of the Eagle Pass International Bridge 1 after CBP Office of Field Operations personnel were redirected to assist the Border Patrol with migrant processing and security.

The OFO officers redirected to assist the Border Patrol normally inspect legal travelers engaged in cross-border commerce and legitimate travel, resulted in excess traffic levels at the Camino Real Port of Entry, the only other entrance into Piedras Negras, Mexico, that straddles the border with Eagle Pass. That city’s population is slightly more than 200,000 residents.

The latest spike in migrant entries into the small border town of Eagle Pass began as the fiscal year approached its end on September 30. As reported by Breitbart Texas, the end of 2023 fiscal year total for migrant encounters along the southwest border with Mexico was more than 2 million. The total does not account for northern border and coastal border migrant encounters or those migrants apprehended at ports of entry nationwide.

The total also excludes the 1,400 migrants granted humanitarian parole by DHS daily through land ports of entry utilizing the CBP-One Application or the up to 1,000 mostly Haitian, Nicaraguan, and Cuban migrants admitted daily to pursue asylum at airports across the United States.

Border Patrol agents assigned to the nine southwest border sectors apprehended more than two million migrants for the second consecutive year. September’s apprehension of approximately 218,000 migrants pushed the Fiscal Year 23 report to just over two million migrants, according to unofficial Border Patrol reports reviewed by Breitbart Texas.

Since President Joe Biden took office in January 2021, Border Patrol agents apprehended more than 5.7 million migrants who illegally crossed the southwest border between ports of entry, the reports indicate.

In September, the last month of the fiscal year, Border Patrol agents apprehended just over 218,000 migrants, unofficial reports revealed. This brought the total for the year to approximately 2,045,000 migrant apprehensions. In addition, Border Patrol officials classified an additional 664,000 migrants as known got-aways.

In contrast, during President Donald Trump’s last full fiscal year in office, agents apprehended only 400,651. During the last two months alone, agents apprehended 399,000 migrants.

The two million migrant apprehensions do not include migrants who entered the country through the CBP One app and other immigration blanket parole programs not authorized by Congress. Official U.S. Customs and Border Protection reports that include these numbers are not expected to be released until the end of October.

Following the end of Title 42 on May 11, the Biden administration relished in a brief decline in migrant apprehensions along the border. In June, agents apprehended 99,543 migrants. During that time, migrants and human smuggling cartels re-evaluated the Biden border security and immigration plans, pushing another surge of migrants to the border. Since the low point in June, apprehensions jumped approximately 119 percent to September’s 218,000.

Migrant apprehensions exceeded 200,000 per month in four months during the fiscal year. Two additional months exceeded 180,000.

Despite the recent surge in the Tucson and Del Rio Sectors, the El Paso Sector finished the year in first place with the apprehension of more than 426,000 migrants. Del Rio finished the year in second place with the arrest of nearly 400,000 migrants. The Tucson, Rio Grande Valley, and San Diego Sectors rounded out the top five with 374,000, 338,000, and 230,000 respectively.

In September, Tucson Sector agents apprehended more than 51,000 migrants. Del Rio finished second with nearly 48,000 apprehensions. The Rio Grande Valley Sector finished in third with more than 45,000 apprehensions.

In the five Texas-based Border Patrol sectors, agents apprehended nearly 134,000 of the 218,000 September apprehensions (61 percent). This brought the FY23 total for the Texas-based sectors to more than 1.2 million of the 2.045 million apprehensions (60 percent).
