Quotes from the 1951 Refugee Convention:

Article 23 - Public relief

Article 17 - Wage-earning employment
....
2. In any case, restrictive measures imposed on aliens or the employment of aliens for the protection of the national labour market shall not be applied to a refugee...who fulfils one of the following conditions:
(a) He has completed three years’ residence in the country;
....
(c) He has one or more children possessing the nationality of the country of residence.

Article 34 - Naturalization [and getting the right to vote (and buy AR-15s)]

Article 44 - Denunciation [getting out from under the Refugee Convention]
1. Any Contracting State may denounce this Convention at any time by a notification addressed to the Secretary-General of the United Nations.
2. Such denunciation shall take effect for the Contracting State concerned one year from the date upon which it is received by the Secretary-General of the United Nations....

NOTE: I do not trust any politician who has not called for invoking Article 44 to get the US out from under the Refugee Convention.

And my distrust extends to Trump and DeSantis.

The Refugee Convention must be removed from the Democratic Party toolbox by invoking Article 44.

Americans, particularly libtards, have their heads screwed on backwards. No other country would actually welcome illegal criminal invaders, let alone put them up in hotels, cater to their favorite foods, clothe them, find them permanent housing, give them thousands of dollars of spending money, phones, education medical and legal care, etc. No wonder they stream over our borders. Not only are they a non-sustainable financial burden, but they are decreasing wages for many people by underbidding them, bringing diseases, drugs, and crime with them, and representing a considerable terrorism threat. Biden & the rest of his illegitimate regime should be tried and executed for treason.

How Augustus did it:

“Considering it also of great importance to keep the people pure and unsullied by any taint of foreign or servile blood, he was most chary of conferring Roman citizenship and set a limit to manumission. When Tiberius requested citizenship for a Grecian dependent of his, Augustus wrote in reply that he would not grant it unless the man appeared in person and convinced him that he had reasonable grounds for the request; and when Livia asked it for a Gaul from a tributary province, he refused, offering instead freedom from tribute, and declaring that he would more willingly suffer a loss to his privy purse than the prostitution of the honour of Roman citizenship”.

Is it any wonder that illegal aliens are coming here in droves when they can expect free meals, free accommodations in luxury hotels, free medical care, free transportation around the country, free schools for their kids and free cash handouts. Ever notice that the illegals all seem to have cell phones as they get on the busses? Who wouldn’t want to come here illegally and be given the red carpet treatment.

More sinister is that these illegals are enriching the Mexican drug cartels who are paid a bounty for smuggling them across the border and serving as mules to carry fentanyl and other drugs into the US. We should be terrified that an increasing number of military age Chinese males and some on terrorist watch lists are entering the country disguised in the hoards of other illegals likely to form sleeper cells for attacks in the US. We should also be concerned about communicable diseases be brought from third world countries as there is virtually no health screening before the illegals are shipped into the country.
