Like the Legions of Rome in the 4th Century AD. We saw where that led.

This may have been a good option at one time - serve in the military in exchange for amnesty/citizenship and would be trained to be loyal and patriotic to their new country...but not with this watered-down, woke Pentagon Obama and Biden have created.

The Roman legions ceased to have loyalty to Rome before there was a Roman empire. The banner said SPQR, but loyalty was to the imperator, because he was the one who paid them.

It will have allegiance to the dodocrat party, or so they will think until the military coup comes.

Trusting people who broke the law getting here to uphold the law while fighting overseas, especially against their countrymen are how insurgencies and atrocities happen.

They're lawbreakers and have no business being in the country, much less in a military uniform.

How totally clueless can one get?

Unfortunately, I think they can get a lot more clueless. I never encouraged my son to go in, but he wanted to be a USAF pilot, so he joined up. He says no one bothers him when he is flying the aircraft.

My son is in Army Basic right now. He said there are a lot of people from other countries with him that signed up to speed up their citizenship. Those people, I respect. Illegal aliens, nope.

Hey Dick:

Do you think that these illegal alien invaders who didn’t have the guts to stay in their own nations and fight to make them free for themselves and their extended families, are going to want to join the U.S. Military to fight and die for you globalist warmongering leftist elitists?
