The Utter Insanity of Joe Biden’s Open Border
American Greatness ^ | January 2, 2024 | Victor Davis Hanson

Posted on 01/04/2024 3:59:56 PM PST by artichokegrower

There have been more than 8 million illegal entries into the United States since Joe Biden was elected president. He appointed Alejandro Mayorkas as Secretary of Homeland Security, whose apparent prime directive was to destroy the southern border.

That task is precisely what Mayorkas has now accomplished. The result is that the border is neither “porous” nor “problematic,” but nonexistent, kaput, vanished—and by design.

In one of the most surreal experiences in the history of the United States, each night Americans see video clips of thousands of foreign nationals crossing the border en masse with complete impunity—as if the entire corpus of federal immigration law has been dynamited.

Ping! Out to the Victor Davis Hanson list

Does legal immigration still exist? Are we still requiring those who would enter the U.S. legally to provide required documents, undergo audits, and complete background checks?

Is not the current policy de facto punishing those who follow the law by tying them up in bureaucratic red tape for years as we reward unlawful behavior by greenlighting amnesties for lawbreakers?

Another superb article from Prof Hanson! Please follow the link and read all 10 points!

When the executive branch follows only the laws it wants to, we have an oligarchy. Presently, moving headlong into dictatorship.

It’s not “utter insanity.” ChiComjoe and his kakistocracy of Demonicrats are actively engaged in giving aid and comfort to the domestic and foreign enemies of the United States. The Constitution has a word for that. These traitors need to be indicted, tried, convicted, and the sentences should be publicly carried out.

“When the executive branch follows only the laws it wants to, we have an oligarchy. Presently, moving headlong into dictatorship.”

Stated just a bit differently, When the idiot Biden follows (what else would anyone expect from a lifelong plagiarist) the lead of his idol, Barry, we have an oligarchy. This will move into (after an argument) a Dictatorship led by Obama who will be overthrown and executed by China.

You pick and choose which laws you wish to obey and which laws you wish to ignore.

I certainly intend to do so. :) goose/gander

Uh... as a youngster I voted for Ross Perot, and a while back I stayed home when Mitt Romney ran, and then there was the time that I voted for Sarah Palin for President, except she wasn’t running for President so I voted for this warmonger that had picked her to be her VP.

I DO get your drift.

The ‘party’ represents somebody or something... but they sure as hell don’t represent us.

The ‘party’ offers up an illusion that they represent us.

Not certain of the status of legal immigration but this needs to be called what it is - unchallenged foreign invasion.....

And our Congress which is suppose to represent us, does absolutely nothing.

Between 1900 and 1915, more than 15 million immigrants arrived in the United States. That was about equal to the number of immigrants who had arrived in the previous 40 years combined.
