Mayorkas: ‘We Need More Migrants’

As the United States grapples with one of the worst border crises in history, President Joe Biden’s border czar is declaring the need for more illegal migrants in the country.

During an interview with the New York Times, Homeland Security Secretary Alejandro Mayorkas claimed that American business owners need more immigrants to help fill jobs.

Mayorkas pitched an outlandish idea that the U.S. needs a high-migration system so that labor needs can be filled. He advocated for the expansion of legal pathways, allowing illegal immigrants to work and live in the U.S.

Wouldn’t it be more orderly, and wouldn’t it be responsible governance to be able to deliver a lawful pathway to fill what we have, which is a labor need, and cut the exploitative smugglers out and give individuals a path to arrive lawfully, safely, in an orderly way, to perform labor that we need? They can send remittances home. They can return home when their work is done. Isn’t that an element of a workable immigration system?

However, Mayokas failed to acknowledge the inevitable that if his plan succeeded, illegal aliens would steal hundreds of thousands of jobs away from hard-working Americans.

There is no other Biden-appointed official who has done more harm to the nation’s sovereignty and has helped illegal criminal migrants wreak havoc on American soil while making billions off drug and human trafficking at our own border than Mayorkas has.

He has prevented the Department of Homeland Security from enforcing crucial immigration laws, resulting in declining removals from the U.S. His blatant disregard has left nearly six million illegal migrants wandering free throughout our country.

Illegal immigrants have impeded American schools, jobs, housing, and resources. With a click of a pen, President Joe Biden can make the border crisis disappear. But alas, he had four years to do so, and all he has done is give them a free ride into the U.S. with free money and benefits.

More than 400,000 known criminal immigrants are in the U.S. According to data, only ten percent were arrested in fiscal year 2022.

Unfortunately, (though not at all surprising) there are likely to be just enough republicans siding with the democrats to reject any attempt to impeach Mayorkas for his very obvious dereliction of duty. Maybe the Silent Turtle is whipping up support behind closed doors.

We have aborted an average of ONE MILLION babies a year for the last 43 years and this douche complains we don’t have enough working-age people in the country.

“labor needs can be filled”

by changing the federal mandate for time & half pay to start at 48 hours a week for workers paid by the hour.

If somebody making $15/hour could work just 8 more hours each week, the person would have almost $500/month more in pre-tax income.

We are rapidly reaching the point where some people need to be swinging from lampposts.
