Record 60 million Hispanics in US, 52% of population growth
Washington Examiner ^ | July 08, 2019 | Paul Bedard

Posted on 07/10/2019 5:03:53 AM PDT by Windflier

The U.S. Hispanic population surged another 1.2 million last year and now is a record 59.9 million, according to newly released U.S. Census Bureau population estimates.

The percentage of Hispanics as part of the overall U.S. population also jumped to 18%.

A Pew Research Center analysis of the new data also found that between 2008 and 2018, “Latinos accounted for about half (52%) of all U.S. population growth over this period.”

The largest growth area for Hispanics was the South, at 33% since 2008. That includes Texas and Florida.

Every region in the U.S. saw growth.

And there were areas of historic growth not typically associated with Latinos, including North Dakota.

Said Pew, “The states with the fastest Hispanic population growth tend to have relatively small Hispanic populations – and are not in the South. North Dakota’s Hispanic population grew by 135% between 2008 and 2018 – from 12,600 to 29,500, the fastest growth rate of any state. However, the state ranked 49th among the 50 states and the District of Columbia in its overall Hispanic population in 2018. Hispanic populations in South Dakota (75%), the District of Columbia (57%), Montana (55%) and New Hampshire (50%) also experienced rapid growth during this period, though all have relatively small Hispanic populations.”

“Many are very hard workers but I unfortunately know that many are rotten thieves.”

Thievery is an integral part of their culture. Wherever they dwell theft is abundant. Yet, they’re pikers when compared to the Chinese, who commit theft on an industrial scale.

“WE” also elected a House that was directly opposed to him, run by a party that wants and uses illegal aliens to vote for them.

Top that off with an 8 year span of judicial officials appointed by someone who ideologically sees nothing wrong with ignoring the Constitution and our borders?

I never expected President Trump to act like a dictator and violate the law, but to use the law to fix the issue. When the House fell to Pelosi et al, I knew “WE” failed.

I will never blame him for trying. No maggot democrat or RINO would have done so much as it is.

We need a new House.

Sorry, not buying it. We controlled the House and the Senate for two years.

I never expected President Trump to act like a dictator and violate the law, but to use the law to fix the issue.

I, too, as well as many others, expect him to use the law, abide by the law, and do his job. The job he promised to do.

Consider the following:

PART I:

Congress passed the following law giving the POTUS the authority to unilaterally forbid immigrants/invaders entry into America. The treasonous liberal federal hacks appointed by o’bummer can only dictate terms once the world’s unwanted actually make it onto US soil and utter the magic “asylum” word. But POTUS can absolutely prevent them from stepping onto US soil. That’s the law.

8 U.S.C. s 1152(a)(1)

"Whenever the President finds that the entry of any aliens or of any class of aliens into the United States would be detrimental to the interests of the United States, he may by proclamation, and for such period as he shall deem necessary, suspend the entry of all aliens or any class of aliens as immigrants or nonimmigrants, or impose on the entry of aliens any restrictions he may deem to be appropriate."

POTUS has the power to order troops to the border, as he has already done. He has ordered troops to the border, but only in a impotent capacity. If he can order ten soldiers, he can order 10,000 soldiers. If he can order 10,000 soldiers, he can order them to be armed and have some teeth. He just has to do it. He can prevent anymore incursions onto American soil. If he'll just do it. He needs to stop worrying about the voter’s perception of this debacle and just do his job. The job which was his campaign platform. The job for which he was elected.

PART II:

He's already exercised the above authority with the travel ban, which authority has already been upheld by SCOTUS.

U.S. Supreme Court upholds Donald Trump’s travel ban By Miriam Valverde on Tuesday, June 26th, 2018 at 1:00 p.m.

The U.S. Supreme Court has upheld President Donald Trump's third attempt to ban the entry of individuals from certain countries, affirming his executive authority to restrict immigration to the United States.

In a June 26 5-4 decision, the court held that "the President has lawfully exercised the broad discretion granted to him under §1182(f) to suspend the entry of aliens into the United States."

The court said that federal law entrusts to the president with decisions related to the entry of individuals: whether and when to suspend entry, whose entry to suspend, for how long and on what conditions.

The president need only determine "that the entry of the covered aliens 'would be detrimental to the interests of the United States.' The president has undoubtedly fulfilled that requirement here," the court said.

Clueless. That Congress was lead by the Chamber of Commerce Amnesty RINOs. Never Trumpers. They’re still plenty there, like in the Senate. Enough of US (that is “WE”) keep them in office.

And the travel ban debacle took a whole YEAR to get that particular decision overturned.

You do know that the courts are STILL banning his orders?

The whole thing is a legal whack-a-mole.

Meanwhile he had the whole Mueller thing over his head.

I’ll bet you could not take ONE DAY of what Donald Trump is subjected to, LOL.

Meanwhile, who beside him is our champion? Tell me the Republican, democrat or ANYONE with the untouchable power to stop the illegal onslaught and I’ll concede. It doesn’t exist as long as “WE” keep electing certain people.

I am dismayed, truly. But I don’t blame Trump.

LOL! So did you vote for Algore? John F’n Kerry? Or some unknown loser?

In complete disclosure, I DID vote for Bush and I regret his actions, but not my vote. But what choices did “WE” have?

Let’s see... Trump not working hard enough to defy the Swamp and stop the invasion, so I’ll vote for who, Biden? Bernie? Harris? Buttilieg?

Tell me the way out. Seriously. I am listening.

The corporations want a new consumer class and you are going to be replaced. Your politicians don’t care what you want and we’re not getting any damned wall. Watch what President Kushner’s immigration plan does.

"This is horrifying."

Not necessarily. Hispanics don't vote as a hard bloc like the blacks do.

=====================================================

Unless "Latinos" are very different outside of CA, it is indeed very troubling if your not a liberal. The latinos are the ones who have tipped the scales blue in CA. Look at the D to R party registration amongst whites...40 to 36 percent. Darn near even. Now, look at latinos, 60% Dem and 16% Repub registration.


https://www.ppic.org/publication/race-and-voting-in-california/

 

Latinos surpassed "whites" as the largest ethnic group in CA back in 2014, and Texas wasn't that far behind back then. Since then, that vast majority of illegal aliens coming from "latino" countries have gone to Texas.

"Record border crossings every month this year. How many are citizens?"

Doesn't matter anymore (citizenship).

Illegal aliens are now getting valid state issued drivers licenses which means those are state issued ID's that are valid in all the other states, many live in cities and even states that subvert federal authority on issues of immigration and now many are going to get federal tax dollar paid "free" healthcare.

“I sure am glad that we elected a president who assured us he was on top of this.”

Ever tried to fix a large leak and had to fight for your tools? The basement was flooded when the plumber got here and now someone has purposely turned on new fire hoses into the area and it’s spilling out into the living room while that group still holds a majority of the tools. Getting wet? Take the tools away from the group and give it to the plumber.

The group has no intention of fixing the leak. The plumber didn’t expect the group to be so openly and voraciously willing to be as stupid as they are while the people on the second floor are not helping. And you blame the plumber? Give him his tools and the leak can be fixed. Hopefully before too much damage has been done and you have to hire a carpenter, also, that the group will fight also.

Get rid of the group. But that will take an exterminator. Simple term: election process.

You prefer America to be white? Then blame white Americans who refuse to have children. White racial suicide isn’t the fault of non-whites.

And why should the Kenyan from Indonesia pay any attention to the Constitution?

It says he can’t be President.

BOTH parties cooperated to violate the Constitution.

They ALL knew he was ineligible.
