And, their parents, their brothers and sisters, nieces and nephews, and their in-laws are all allowed to immigrate once the original immigrant is legal.
Republicans like Marco Rubio are literally handing America to the Democrat Party.

President of the Union representing ICE Agents detailed in an interview last night how administrative orders have prevented officers from enforcing immigration violations, creating a system in which even the 9/11 hijackers would not have been arrested.
Tyrant Kim Un Obama must be very pleased that his efforts have so easily “FUNDAMENTALLY CHANGED THE UNITED STATES OF AMERICA.”
But hasn’t this administration repeatedly told us that the border is more secure now than ever?
Reward bad behavior, get more bad behavior. Hmmm, this phenomenon deserves a government study, maybe a ‘Stoopid Czar.’
Nappy’s already there, grampa’s got a barn, Dianne can make Village People motorcycle cop/bad-boy ‘ramrod’ costumes.
Let’s put on a show in the Capitol!
