Democrat Mayor Michelle Wu of Boston, Massachusetts, is going viral for saying that every human on earth has the “legal right” to come to the U.S.A.
Wu’s comments have resurfaced and are once again gaining thousands of comments from outraged Americans.
In a video clip of an interview from March, Wu is seen saying, “Every single human being has the legal right to come to the United States and seek shelter.”
Of course, federal immigration law states that hopeful immigrants cannot just arrive on America’s shores, but must file for visas or asylum while still in their own country (or otherwise outside the U.S.), then go through applications and interviews before being allowed to come to the United States.
The far-left mayor’s comments have elicited a wide range of replies from congressmen, conservatives, and tens of thousands of regular Americans alike.
Texas Republican Rep. Brandon Gill, for one, ripped Democrats, saying, “Dems demand infinity immigration, then infinity welfare — all at Americans’ expense.”
Utah Republican Sen. Mike Lee also slammed Wu, writing, “Nope … That’s not how any of this works … Never has been… Never will be… Bad things happen when we pretend otherwise.”

Well, why then do they want to come to the U.S. since it is such a racist place to begin with?
And now it’s time for a little quiz. Who said:
“If you open the borders, my God, there’s a lot of poverty in this world, and you’re going to have people from all over the world. And I don’t think that’s something that we can do at this point. Can’t do it. So that is not my position.”
A. Donald Trump
B. Ronald Reagan
C. Newt Gingrich
D. Bernie Sanders
And the answer is…
D. Probably the only sensible thing Bolshevik Bernie ever said.

They have no legal right, they can choose to come but only legally.
No government handouts, must assimilate and must speak English if not they should never be allowed in.
It is a human right to request protection from persecution,
but it does not guarantee automatic entry or approval.
Key points regarding this right:
Legal Right: The right to seek asylum is protected under the
1951 UN Refugee Convention and the U.S. Refugee Act of 1980.
Requirements: Applicants must have a well-founded fear of persecution based on
race, religion, nationality, political opinion, or membership in a particular social group.
Location: The person must be physically present in the U.S. or, at a port of entry, to apply.
Limitations: While the right to ask for asylum exists, it does not mean every person is granted asylum.
Recent policies have increasingly restricted access to this process at
the US-Mexico border b/c of the immigration mess made by Biden.
Therefore, while anyone can request safety, it is not a guaranteed
legal right to “enter” the country, ....... only the right to have their claim “heard.”
Another blue city mayor thinking they can set national policy.
The Libertarian position, open borders and eliminate the Border Patrol and ICE.
Maybe if we got rid of our own hand outs, they wouldn’t want to come.
Christian Charity is for the Church. Stupid people think the Government can do it, when it can hardly do anything.
“thousands of comments from outraged Americans.”
Wu is a Democrat, what do they expect?
That means they all have the right to stay at Wu’s house and she will care for them.
From wikipedia: she is the first woman and the first person of color to be elected to the position. At age 36, she was also the youngest person to have been elected to the position in nearly a century.
She came out of nowhere. Boston does not have a big Asian population. Boston does have a fair number of blacks, but historically blacks don't really like Asians. As far as I can see, she doesn't have a "base". Her big issues seem to be climate change, transgenders, and banning plastic bags. Nothing that improves life in the city or shows management skill of a complex urban environment. But somehow she's mayor.
I don't think our elections are real.
set national policy.
Every rat’s dream. And it,
Was being facilitated by the left using their own preinstalled on the shelf shelf judges until....
DJT fixed it!
GOD blessed the USA!
So what law, code, statute or Constitutional amendment makes this legal? Answer: NONE.
She’s talking typical commie BS.
Perfect campaign commercial.
Perfect campaign commercial.
Says the unassimilated American Wu
“Every American has a right to Michelle Wu’s personal property and all of her money”.
Let’s see how much she likes that statement.
