It’s imperative that the people support the President as he faithfully enforces the laws of the United States.
We occasionally encounter the notion that America is an experiment, carried out under controlled conditions, in democratic governance. The control for experiments in our democracy is the Constitution and subordinate laws. George Washington advised in his Farewell Address “the Constitution… is sacredly obligatory upon all. The right of the people to establish government presupposes the duty of every individual to obey the established government.”
When Joe Biden took office he refused to enforce U.S. immigration law, allowing millions to enter the country illegally. His open border experiment had no control. At a press conference, Biden told reporters, “I’ve done all I can do. Just give me the power. Give me the people, Border Patrol and Judges who can stop this and make it work right.” The key phrase in Biden’s request for “power” is his demand that Congress pass a law to “make it work right” meaning the law must “work right” in the uncontrolled immigration scheme of the Democrat Party.
In 2021 Democrats introduced the U.S. Citizenship Act which “establishes a path to citizenship.” Democrats didn’t want an immigration law. They wanted citizenship for the tens of millions of aliens in the country illegally and the millions who would follow. Counting illegal aliens in the census allots Congressional seats and electoral votes to the blue states that attract them. They are determined to secure the votes from these newly-minted citizens.
Democrats are now doing everything conceivable to keep illegal aliens in the country. Blue state mayors and governors across the country ignore immigration law. This ignorance is on display in sanctuary cities and states. Minneapolis is ground zero for sanctuary policy. Like many liberal enclaves, Minneapolis has developed a grievance industry

It is very clear that the left wants to destroy Western Civilization.
Like a news paper,
black and white and red all over.
DemocRATz undermine everything they touch.
They are the enemy.
The are the right hands of Communism, reverse evolution, and Islam.
We either treat them as the above, or perish.
Yep.
It is very clear that the left wants to destroy Western Civilization.
>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>.
And they have an excellent chance of doing so because as I never tire of broadcasting the power of anti-American indoctrination today is absolutely awesome. Why? Because it has become pervasive in so many areas of our culture including the news and entertainment media, the education systems from pre-school to graduate school, government at all levels, private industry at all levels, and even in many religious institutions. Have I missed any areas where the assault has now become non-stop?
yep, they are winning. lets all go home.
> why the Democrat Party hasn’t yet been outlawed I have no idea
On the one hand, you’re quite right - the Democrat party has been working against America since it’s founding and hasn’t changed.
On the other, we both know why; much of the “other” party is also working against America too.
Another Black congress critter has been accused of swindling money from the American taxpayers. Mrs. Potatohead, Pressley wants her “reparations” for having to pick cotton and she wants it now.
Don't keep beating around the bush. Demonicrats betray the American experiment and give aid and comfort to the domestic and foreign enemies of the United States.
It is very clear that the left wants to destroy Western Civilization.

Elections can have destructive consequences. Never forget 2008, 2012, and 2020 [the one stolen by Marxist-Democrats!].
The Wetback Party
yep, they are winning. lets all go home.

I assume you think otherwise, but in 2016 had it not been for the rise of a charismatic iconoclast named Trump there’s a good chance we could have been ruled since then by “patriots” like Hillary, Biden, and Harris. Not a happy thought!
“Saving our democracy.” Someone should tell the clowns at American Thinker(?) that we are a Republic.
“refused to enforce U.S. immigration law”
From where I sit, the history during my lifetime is this:
The first 70 years of my life the Republicans mostly mouthed a weak central government, strong local government. The word RINO meant Republicans didn’t practice what they preached. They voted for big central government.
Now the MAGA rhetoric is a big central government.
In the 1950s, 1960s immigration was mostly enforced by local government. In Chicago, the police or politicians didn’t like an immigrant...they put him on the weekly bus of deportees to Mexico. Nixon is the one who centralized immigration...over the protests of Chicago’s Mayor Daley.
The libertarian (small l) argument for a weak central government was that a strong central government would never due what the minority wanted. Democracy is the rule of the mob. The left would regret it when the mob was a right wing mob.
The beauty of local control is that if you didn’t like it in Chicago, you could always move to the suburbs. If you didn’t like it in Illinois you could always move to a red state. And vice versa. If you were titillated by Hollyweird, you had the freedom to choose to move there.
That still exists, but is shrinking under both Democrats, and under Nixon and Trump.
With the 17th Amendment, Americans themselves doomed the American Experiment.
