“There are more immigrants living in the United States than ever before. The foreign-born are more likely to come from China and India — often equipped with skills and a higher education — than Mexico.

Many of the immigrants who live here ... “

So who are they talking about: legal immigrants or illegal aliens? The US Code, Title 8 (`Immigration and Naturalization’) talks about immigrants and aliens.

By conflating these terms with definite meanings, the MSM wordsmiths have done such violence to the language that it is difficult—sometimes even impossible, when they insist something is what it is not—to talk about immigrants and immigration.
A lot of Americans are fed up with their dishonest rhetoric.
Go Trump.

Send Josh an e-mail. Mine: If these immigrants are illegal (a term he uses on his page: `Illegal immigrants’), is it because they are here illegally?
And if that is the case, then they aren’t really immigrants are they? Because in order to be an immigrant one must have satisfied US immigration laws.
So wouldn’t non-Americans living here without having complied with our laws be foreign nationals (resident aliens) here illegally, that is, illegal aliens?

It’s not the `N word’. The statutes use it, so can you.
