JOE BIDEN - FOLKS, FLOODING THE COUNTRY WITH ANYONE WHO WANTS TO INVADE KEEPS WAGES DEPRESSED, PRODUCES THOUSANDS OF ANCHOR BABIES FOR WELFARE AND KEEPS RENTS SOARING

JOE BIDEN CRONY LARRY FINK OF BLACKROCK HAS ACQUIRED $60 BILLION IN RENTAL WHILE JOJO HAS BEEN IN OFFICE. DO A SEARCH FOR BIDEN AND LARRY!

The inflow also reduces economic pressure on the federal government to deal with Americans’ problems — homelessness, low wages, a shrinking middle class, slowing innovation, declining blue-collar life expectancy, spreading poverty, the rising death toll from drugs, and the spreading alienation among young people.

Feds: Illegal Aliens Charged with Attack on NYPD Officers Members of Venezuela’s Tren de Aragua Gang

At least two of eight illegal aliens accused of attacking New York City Police Department (NYPD) officers last month are members of Venezuela’s violent street gang known as Tren de Aragua, Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) officials reveal. Seven of the illegal aliens are now in jail on Rikers Island.

On Jan. 27, a mob of illegal aliens from Venezuela was caught on surveillance and police body cam footage attacking a pair of NYPD officers outside of a taxpayer-funded migrant shelter in midtown Manhattan.

Since then, eight illegal aliens have been charged with the attack. On Friday, seven of the illegal aliens were sent to jail on Rikers Island in New York after pleading not guilty. Only one illegal alien linked to the attack has yet to be arraigned.

The five illegal aliens arraigned on Friday are:

  • 24-year-old Yorman Reveron held on a $100,000 cash bail or $250,000 bond
  • 24-year-old Yohenry Brito held on a $15,000 cash bail or $50,000 bond
  • 19-year-old Kelvin Servita Arocha held on a $15,000 cash bail
  • 21-year-old Wilson Juarez held on a $1 cash bail
  • 19-year-old Darwin Gomez-Izquiel held on a $50,000 cash bail

Meanwhile, 21-year-old Ulises Bohorquez and 18-year-old Yarwuin Madris are already being held on Rikers Island for the attack. Bohorquez has a cash bail of $100,000, while Madris has been ordered held without bail.

Jhoan Boada, a 22-year-old illegal alien from Venezuela, has been charged and let out without bail but has yet to be arraigned.

Thanks to Manhattan District Attorney Alvin Bragg (D), linked to billionaire George Soros, previously not requesting bail for most, Brito and Madris were the only two illegal aliens charged in the attack who have remained consistently in jail, while the others had been released.

A so-called “sanctuary church” in Brooklyn, this week, had sought to help free Brito from jail by paying his previously set $15,000 cash bail, but he was ordered held on the bail on Friday.

According to ICE officials, who spoke to the Washington Times‘s Stephen Dinan, Juarez and Arocha are both members of Venezuela’s Tren de Aragua and crossed the southern border at some point in the last couple of years.

ICE agents had taken both into custody, noting that Arocha was wanted by the agency, while Juarez had already been ordered deported by a federal immigration judge a year ago but was never deported.

Juarez’s low bail of just $1 is likely to get him off Rikers Island, but ICE agents have said he will re-enter their custody if he is released from jail. Juarez’s bail is vastly lower than other suspects because he is charged with a single count of tampering with evidence, not with the attack.

The gang members’ involvement in the attack comes as federal authorities are increasingly worried that the nation’s porous southern border is allowing hundreds, potentially thousands, of Tren de Aragua members into American communities to set up shop.

In New York City, federal authorities worry that Tren de Aragua may form an alliance with the violent MS-13 gang from El Salvador which has many members across the city and Long Island.

Poll Reveals Consensus: Migration Curbs Are Good for U.S.

Almost 70 percent of Americans say the U.S. would benefit from new curbs on migration at the southern border, according to an Economist/YouGov poll of 1,671 citizens.

The February 11-13 poll asked, “If Congress passes a new bill restricting the admission of new migrants at the border, do you think this would be good or bad for the United States?”

Sixty-nine percent of the Americans responded that it would be “good,” while only 14 percent predicted “bad.”

That result shows five Americans believe migration curbs will benefit America for every one American who believes migration curbs would be harmful.

The new national consensus against southern migration comes after President Joe Biden and Democrats vigorously backed a Senate bill that they suggested would sharply curb their huge wave of southern migration.

The Democrats’ suggestion was a deceptive promise in the 2024 campaign. In reality, the Senate bill was so fraudulentpro-migration, and lopsided that it was torpedoed by a revolt among populist-minded Republican senators on February 7.

But the Democrats’ rhetoric about migration curbs inadvertently gives Americans an opportunity to openly back the curbs on legal and illegal migration that they have privately favored.

An Economist/YouGov Poll asks if "immigrants make country better or worse."

An Economist/YouGov Poll asks if “immigrants make country better or worse.”

Many Americans, especially nonpolitical Americans, hide their private concerns about mass migration under a well-meaning welcome for individual migrants. Often, this silence is caused by a reluctance to publicly contradict the establishment’s “Nation of Immigrants” narrative that has been pushed on children and adults since the Cold War 1960s.

But the silence has been cracked by Biden’s increasingly unpopular refusal to enforce the nation’s border laws — and by his welcome for more than six million wage-cutting, rent-inflating migrants. For example, just 11 percent of YouGov’s respondents said they “strongly approve” of Biden’s border policy, while 57 percent strongly disapprove.

The new willingness to openly oppose migration is seen in the new YouGov poll: Just 17 percent of respondents dodged the “good or bad for the United States?” question by declaring they were “Not Sure” how to answer the survey question.

All groups in the new YouGov poll said migration curbs would be good for America.

For example, self-described liberals believe curbs would be good for the nation by 57 percent to 29 percent.

Curbs were welcomed by 88 percent of people who plan to vote for Donald Trump in 2024 and a 55 percent majority of people who plan to vote for Joe Biden. Only one in five — 20 percent — of Biden voters said the curbs would have bad results.

Sixty percent of swing-voting independents believe curbs would be good for the U.S., as do 49 percent of liberals, 69 percent of “moderates,” 66 percent of Hispanics, 53 percent of black people, and 73 percent of white Americans.

Young people — who tend to be most welcoming of migrants — also voted strongly in favor of new curbs, with 57 percent saying “good” and just 22 percent saying “bad.”

The poll furthermore showed that Democrats believe curbs would help Biden more than Trump.

The survey also asked if border curbs would benefit Biden. Fifty-four percent of Democrats and 47 percent of liberals said the curbs would benefit him.

When asked if curbs would benefit Trump, only 36 percent of Democrats and 39 percent of liberals said the curbs would be good for him.

Forty percent of Americans said migration makes U.S. politics better, and 13 percent said it makes politics worse.

A new report from the Congressional Budget Office reinforces the vast evidence that the federal policy of Extraction Migration shifts family wages and workplace investment toward Wall Streetreal estatecoastal states, and government.

The economic policy is very unpopular, in part, because it also diverts politicians’ focus from American communities and the rising “deaths of despair” among discarded Americans.

The inflow of illegals also reduces economic pressure on the federal government to deal with Americans’ problems — homelessness, low wages, a shrinking middle class, slowing innovation, declining blue-collar life expectancy, spreading poverty, the rising death toll from drugs, and the spreading alienation among young people.

Cities at Breaking Point in California, Colorado, and Maine over Biden Border Crisis

With more than 40,000 migrants arriving since 2022, Denver is at a breaking point with the weight of the costs of delivering free housing, free medical care, free legal advice, free education for their children, and other things to migrants.

In response, Democrat Denver Mayor Mike Johnston has come down to massive budget cuts to city services to legal residents to address the issue.

Up until last month, Denver has put $42 million into caring for Joe Biden’s flood of illegal aliens that have inundated the Mile High City. The costs may amount to more than $180 million this year, according to the New York Times.

Mayor Johnston said that the $9 million coming from the federal government to be dedicated to the migrant issue was simply not enough to solve the crisis. So, to address the shortfall, Johnston says the city needs to pick up the difference.

“We are going to have to make changes to what we can do in terms of our city budget and what we can do in terms of support for newcomers who have arrived in the city,” Johnston said on Feb. 9.

“We want to continue to be a city that does not have women and children out on the street in tents in 20-degree weather,” he added. “And we also want to provide all our constituents with the services they deserve and the services that they expect.”

“This is a plan for shared sacrifice,” said Johnston said.

Johnston went on to propose cuts in services to city residents.

Perhaps absurdly, the Democrat mayor tried to blame Republicans and Donald Trump for the illegal alien issue and claimed that Trump scotched a a “bipartisan Senate deal” and he and Republicans worked to “kill that bill just so this crisis would continue just because he thinks he has a better chance of reelection.”

Many citizens may not be buying Johnston’s naked political attack on Republicans.

Residents of nearby Lakewood are worried that their town will also succumb to the overflow from Denver.

On Monday, Lakewood residents packed a city council meeting demanding that their elected officials create policies to prevent the sort of mess that is swamping Denver, CPR News reported.

“What you see tonight is informed voters who have watched Denver’s decline, and don’t want the same here,” resident Dawn Austin said during the meeting were some toted signs reading, “Don’t Denver Our Lakewood.”

“This community cannot afford this,” said Ramey Johnson, a former city councilwoman who has helped organize the people voicing concerns. “It’s not that we are not a compassionate community. We are,” another resident named Ramey Johnson said. “But we cannot care for the world.”

City officials assured residents that they were not planning on opening any shelters for illegals any time soon. During the meeting, Lakewood city manager Kathy Hodgson told the council that “Lakewood is not being solicited for hotel/motel or congregate housing support.”

The Denver area is hardly alone. This budget busting destruction is not happening just in scattered cities. Budgets are being busted across the country as liberal cities race to shift money from police, firemen, libraries, and every other city service to the feeding and housing of Joe Biden’s illegals.

From Los Angeles, to Chicago, to Boston, to New York City, and up into Maine, not to mention in every corner of the southwest, cities are being swamped and outspent by the millions of border crossers who have come here assuming that Joe Biden has created a wide open border.

New York Mayor Eric Adams suffered a major backlash on Nov. when he suggested that he intended to cut hundreds of hundreds of millions from the Big Apple’s yearly budget.

And just this week, Maine state Senator Matt Pouliot warned voters that the state has thrown a hefty $13 million dollars to house just 85 families in hotel in Saco in cooperation with Catholic Charities of Maine.

Sen. Pouliot noted in a press conference on Tuesday that he and several other members of the state legislature visited the hotel in Saco, located just south of Portland.

“This hotel at which we’ve spent now over $13 million at,” the state sen. said. “This hotel has served just 85 families. Now think about that for a moment. We have 186 really bright minds in the legislature working on really complex problems. And somehow 13 almost $14 million is being diverted to help just 85 families. That doesn’t seem right.”

Republican Senate Majority Leader Trey Stewart echoed Pouliot’s concerns.

“It’s really striking to me that the folks in rural Maine are being told to do more with less, meanwhile Taj Mahals are being built for other folks in more urban places that aren’t even Maine residents, Maine citizens,” Stewart said on Feb. 14, according to The Center Square.

Republican House Minority Leader Billy Bob Faulkingham noted that more illegals have flooded Maine in just a year than moved to Maine to become legal residents since the year 2000.

Faulkingham blasted Democrat Gov. Janet Mills for putting “migrants over Mainers and added, “Just to put that number in perspective, it’s more people to move in than have moved in since 2000 – and Mainers are footing the bill.”

Report: Biden’s Job-Growth Boasts Built on Illegal Migration

President Joe Biden’s jobs record is built on the record hiring of 2.9 million job-seeking migrants — and a persistent 183,000 deficit in the number of Americans with jobs compared to 2019, according to a report by the Center for Immigration Studies.

Biden’s “Immigrant employment … has exploded,” said a statement by Steven Camarota, who wrote the report, titled “All Employment Growth Has Gone to Immigrants, Compared to 2019.

“The number of U.S.-born Americans working [has grown yet] has still not returned to the 2019 pre-Covid level,” he added.

The data does not say that American job-seekers are being unfairly pushed aside while employers only hire migrants for new jobs.

Instead, the data showed that all of Biden’s extra jobs above the 2019 level are held by his migrants — even as U.S.-born workers have not regained all their jobs held in 2019.

The share of working Americans remains below 2019 rates, partly because many older Americans are retiring while relatively few young Americans are joining the workforce. This demographic decline ensures that CEOs are likely to fill many jobs with hard-working migrants who are replacing the American babies who were not born in the early 2000s.

But Biden also makes it easy and profitable for CEOs to hire illegal migrants instead of the many Americans who still do not have jobs.

There are roughly five million working-age American men who could be hired for the extra jobs in the economy, Camarota told Breitbart News. Employers prefer not to hire them because they are sidelined in jobless towns, or by drug addiction, ill-health, criminal records, apathy, and alienation.

Government policies generally ignore those sidelined Americans. For example, the 5 million discarded Americans are not counted as unemployed because they have not looked for jobs in the last month. Instead, they are described by government officials are not participating in the labor force.

“Labor force participation among non-college-educated U.S.-born men has not even returned to the 2019 level, which itself was very low by historical standards,” Camarota said in his report. He added:

The labor force participation rate of U.S.-born men without a bachelor’s (18 to 64) has still not returned to the 76.3 percent it was in the fourth quarter of 2019, which was lower than the 80.5 percent in 2006 and the 82.6 percent in 2000.

Biden’s policies encourage CEOs to ignore these sidelined Americans.

For example, Biden’s deputies have welcomed more than 6.2 million illegal migrants across the southern border. The welcome allows CEOs to hire cheap, drug-free, and grateful foreigners at the local bus station instead of going through the painful process of hiring and training alienated, unfit, unhealthy, and resentful Americans.

The scale of the replacement was outlined at a September 2023 House hearing by Douglas Holtz-Eakin, president of the business-backed American Action Forum:

In 2021, 96 percent of the 70,601 synthetic opioid caused deaths were in the prime-age labor force. AAF research found that between 2013 and 2021, opioid use accounted for the loss of more than 1.3 million workers … Opioid use contributes to lower worker productivity, increased worker absenteeism, increased job openings through employee turnover, and reduced labor supply.

Clearly, it also increases the likelihood that employers must turn to illegal labor to fill employment needs.

The government policies also allow investors to profit by creating low-productivity jobs for eager migrants that could not be profitable if employers had to pay decent wages to Americans.

This growth-by-poverty strategy is especially clear in the major coastal cities — such as New York. The strategy is backed by the Democratic Party because government workers also can profit by delivering aid and welfare to the underpaid migrants.

If Biden blocked the migrants, the investors would be pressured to invest in higher-productivity jobs that could allow higher wages and less welfare. The reduced flow of migrants would also prod coastal CEOs to create new jobs in the many Heartland states that are home to sidelined Americans.

Since 1990, the government’s vast inflow of migrants has created a bubble of cheap labor for extra low-productivity jobs in coastland states. That inflow allows government officials to display high job-creation numbers while concealing the massive transfer of high-productivity jobs to China, Mexico, India, and other countries.

For example, the number of restaurant jobs rose from 12.5 million in 2008 to 15 million in 2018, according to RestaurantBusiness.com. The growth of 2.5 million jobs was made possible by the steady inflow of job-seeking migrants during President Barack Obama’s terms, and by government welfare policies that allow employers to hire people at below-poverty wages.

From 2008 to 2010, the number of U.S. manufacturing jobs fell by 2.5 million.

The government’s post-1990 cheap-labor bubble finally burst amid the 2020 coronavirus crash and President Donald Trump’s willingness to shut down the migrant inflow. The economic crisis also encouraged many migrants to go home. Those three factors helped to push up Americans’ wages in 2020.

But Biden’s deputies have used their vast inflow of migrants since 2021 to quickly reverse Trump’s pro-American wage gains.

Since 2021, Biden’s pro-migration policy has flatlined real wages — partly by spiking inflation — even as it grew the number of jobs filled by migrants.

This process helps Biden boast about creating millions of new jobs while also hiding the steady loss of wages nationwide.

The gradual drop in wages — and the rise in housing costs — also reduce the number of children born to American families. So Biden’s pro-migration allies use that painful problem as an excuse to import even more migrants.

“Now, more than ever, we’re short of workers,” Sen. Chuck Schumer (D-NY) said at a November 2022 press conference, which was intended to tout several draft amnesties for illegal migrants. He continued:

We have a population that is not reproducing on its own with the same level that it used to. The only way we’re going to have a great future in America is if we welcome and embrace immigrants, the dreamers and all of them — because our ultimate goal is to help the Dreamers [illegals who were brought in by their parents] get a path to citizenship for all 11 million — or however many undocumented there are here [emphasis added].

Biden’s “[migration] increase in population will put downward pressure on average real wages [emphasis added],” said a report by the Congressional Budget Office, which was released on February 7.

“Average real wages are expected to be slightly lower by 2034 [emphasis added] than they would be otherwise,” the report said, adding:

From 2028 to 2034, labor income is projected to remain stable as a percentage of [Gross Domestic Product] GDP, averaging 57.1 percent. That projection is below labor income’s average percentage of GDP from 1947 to 2000, 60.4 percent [emphasis added], because some factors that have depressed labor income relative to GDP since 2000 are expected to persist in the coming decade.

The official report reinforces the vast evidence that the federal policy of Extraction Migration shifts family wages and workplace investment toward Wall Streetreal estatecoastal states, and government.

The economic policy also diverts politicians’ focus away from American communities and the “Deaths of Despair” that are dragging down the average age of American deaths.
