I have argued the
illegal immigration discussion on many levels. I have outlined the attacks on
our country’s sovereignty. I am sure that millions of you have read on this
news site as well as other media organs how the DACA program is
unconstitutional, and an extreme executive overreach. Hopefully, you read
something that I wrote on this divisive issue three months ago: “I’m a
DREAMER TOO!”
I am a dreamer. Yes,
and I have a dream that the elected officials commissioned to enforce our
immigration laws will stop being baited by the sob stories of young illegal
aliens who were brought to this country by their law-breaking parents. Besides,
there are many American dreamers whose dreams have been cut short by illegals,
like Dominic
Durden, Jamiel Shaw Jr., Ruben
Morfin, Drew
Rosenberg,
among many others.
During the presidential
campaign, Trump made it crystal clear that he cared about American
dreamers—their dreams come first—I would add foremost and finally, not the
rights of illegal aliens. “But what about the young illegal aliens?” I have had
this discussion back and forth with close friends as well as younger people on
colleges, policy makers, and those who enforce our immigration laws. We are a
nation of laws, and sovereignty and security go hand in hand. No more
guilt-tripping, please. Nope. The only thing lacking is the political will to
enforce our laws, which then presidential candidate Ted Cruz had announced during
one of the final contentious debates before the make-or-break primaries ensued
earlier in the year.
Political will is
needed. Why is this so hard? The Democratic Party has played the race card, the
identity politics game, but they are now losing. They exploited this illegal
issue, tugging at the heart-strings of the average voter. All Americans who are
still heartbroken about the difficult plight of “The DREAMers” need to come to
California. Then again, even the native-born Californians don’t want to live here.
They could go to Texas, and see what these illegal alien youth are doing in
that legislature, too.
The violent arrogance
of this sticking, needling DACA cohort is astounding. Thy have burst into state
legislative sessions demanding amnesty. One lawmaker had the guts to call ICE
and scare them off! On college campuses across the country, too (not just in
blue states) young illegals are taking advantage of legal loopholes and
diffident state legislatures who think that they can thumb their noses to our
federal laws. In a Cudahy, CA city council meeting, the fierce hatred
from these
illegal youth should condemn DACA outright. Young illegals wearing bandanas, holding
Communist signs, agitating in public, violating our public meeting laws—these
young illegals here and elsewhere are not innocents. They are now joining the
Antifa hordes—the same hordes shutting down freedom of speech and attacking
innocent citizens
Yet lawmakers still
fall for the “poor illegal” lie, especiallly Republicans. Illinois Governor
Bruce Rauner is pandering for Hispanic support in his tough re-election fight.
Despite his epic backbone in one budget battles, he
signed off on a sanctuary state bill. What is this man thinking? Does he not understand
that slip-siding upside-down, amoral compromising is why this country faces
this convoluted immigration mess? Chicago, Illinois is the only illegal-alien
magnet municipality in the state, and it’s going bankrupt. If Chicago goes
down, Illinois goes red. Pretty simple concept. But no, like many squishy
Republicans more concerned about looking bad than doing good, Rauner went with
the “poor illegal” narrative.
Enough! It’s time for
us to stop being nice. It’s time for men and women in Washington and throughout
the states to stop governing from their hearts and start leading with their
minds. In fact, most politicians want to cave and roll out the red carpet to
the “poor illegal aliens” who were brought here against their will.
Reports have circulated
before and after today that Trump was cutting the program. Now there’s a delay.
Who are the culprits making all the noise?
1. Speaker Paul “Big
Business” Ryan. This guy just gave more grassroots Republicans and House
candidates a reason to distance themselves from himself. Fire this guy right
now.
2. Silicon Valley—these
are abject liberals and their Millennial cohorts who think that they can devise
an app for just about everything. There is no social media device that will
excuse lawlessness. Pay American techies more money, you tightwads!
3. “Conservative” US
Senators like Thom Tillis of North Carolina. He has been pushing legal status
programs for illegals for the past three years. Geez, when will GOP politicos
get a clue? We don’t want amnesty!
Enough! This is what
needs to happen, President Trump:
1. Revoke DACA now.
2. Issue a time-limit
for all former DACA recipients: 6 months to return to one’s country of origin.
No one should cry about this. The program was called “Deferred Action,” was it
not?
3. Ensure adequate
staffing in American consulates around the world. Then those illegal aliens can
get in line and enter the country the right away, with the advantage of
speaking English, with American education and upbringing.
4. Ensure that every
immigrant (meaning lawfully present resident) has been taken care of who is still
waiting for their full naturalization status.
That’s it.
Yet Trump is thinking
about making a deal with Congress? Why? He already has bad Republicans on the
run, including Jeff “Open Borders” Flake. Conservatives are poised to pick up
the Alabama US Senate Seat (go Judge Moore!) Ohio and Montana are flappable US
Senate seats in 2018, along with the 2012 and 2016 red states won by Romney and
Trump.
No more deals. The
American people have seen their best interests danced away with the Potomac
Two-Party Bipartisan shuffle. Stop this immigration lunacy for good. Build the
wall, deport them all, watch American wages rise, and crime rates fall. By
2020, the American electorate will be so thrilled with Trump’s MAGA agenda that
illegal immigration will have become a minor political footnote.
