Democratic leaders are facing backlash over the Biden administration's handling of illegal immigration, leading to a surge in crime, strained services, and a Trump victory focused on border security.
Donald Trump will not be president for almost another two months.
Yet Democrat politicians, both federal and local, vie to be the most strident in denouncing his plans to begin deporting millions of foreign nationals who, over the last four years, have entered the U.S. illegally. Trump pledges to focus initially only on the 400,000 to 500,000 current felons and some 1.4 million additional aliens who have ignored legal summons for their deportation.
Weekly we read of thousands of illegal immigrants arriving from areas controlled by violent Mexican cartel gangs or failed, strife-torn South American countries that have emptied their jails to send their felons northwards. Hundreds of thousands of them have been committing violent crimes while demanding still more free housing and support from strapped American taxpayers.
Big-city left-wing mayors and city councils boast that they will do all their best to nullify federal immigration laws, even as their cities face near insolvency housing, feeding, and monitoring the influx. More specifically, they brag they will continue to order local and state authorities to resist all efforts of federal Immigration and Customs Enforcement officers. They scream about possible “massive deportations” to come under Trump, callously ignoring that their own advocacy has fueled rising crime waves of unaudited illegal aliens. And they appear absolutely indifferent to the social costs imposed by illegal immigration upon their own poor and middle-class constituents.
Virtue-signaling Democratic governors and mayors have so far not dared to utter a word of criticism about what has been the Biden administration’s truly historic “massive importation” of illegal aliens into the U.S. over the last four years.
Why? ...
Do these blue city mayors enjoy making their citizens suffer?

It’s also just stupid for a society to absorb unknown elements too rapidly. What happen to the term ‘Balkinization’? It’s been replaced with the terms ‘diversity’ and ‘multiculturalism’, implying that it’s a good thing instead. There are no actual good examples of it however, only bad ones.
They are mentally challenged, IMHO. I live in a governor declared sanctuary state, I know Jay Inslee and the rest of his politburo have a screw or two loose and are thieving bastards.
Put the sanctuary issue to a vote of the people and we would not be a sanctuary state. Seattle on the other hand…
Now that the election is over, an enfeebled Joe Biden has two months left on his presidency and no longer worries about reelection. So, in its final gasp, the left is again trying to invite in more illegal aliens. Apparently one final huge caravan is forming south of the border and plans to make its way northward just days before Trump takes office and begins to fulfill his promises to the majority of voters to close the border.

“the democrat party...doing things the rest of the country is sorry for since 1828” applies. seems pretty obvious that THIS time it was them trying to replace Americans with foreign agents AFTER getting rid of the rest of us through the covid qwap and as usual it will take decades to fix THEIR mess as they just say OOPS!, we’re sorry and plan the NEXT mess.
GREAT article by VDH. Thanks for posting.

The RATS haven’t been listening. Their new illegal alien voters didn’t come here to mow the grass, clean toilets or pick strawberries. They are here for “a better life”. A life where they can party all the time on the taxpayers’ dime. A life full of free stuff and lots of free money. A life with handicap parking placards hanging from the rearview mirrors of their new SUVs. All for free. A new life where they can rape and murder and the fags in the “media” are asking questions about why they didn’t get the chance to get off that they “deserved”. A life full of welcome wagons, government diaper changers. A life with cellphones ATMs that give them access to all the taxpayer dollars they want. What a crock of crap this country has become. The new Illegal Alien invaders are saying that “Trump isn’t their president. Well, America isn’t their country either.” Americans never invited them here. The Democrats did. Welcome to their party.
Immorality is beside the point. IT’S ILLEGAL!
They covet the federal reveue to house and sustain their illegals.
It’s not simply immoral.
When the Demonicrats, DeepStaters, and RINOcrats allowed and promoted illegal immigration, they gave aid and comfort to the domestic and foreign enemies of the United States.
They also know that ‘playing the long gane’ will pay huge benefits in the future—as they are banking millions and millions of future democratic voters!
If they really cared about immigrants welfare they would not be inviting them to come and be subjected to extreme human torture and even death to get here. If they really cared they would realize it is extremely abusive and life threatening to even make the trip here in the first place.
It is criminal neglect and human rights abuse to even invite them like they are.
Not one dime of this countries resources, that all come through taxation, should be spent on an immigrant. Legal or illegal. Illegals should be sent packing and legal immigrants should be able to support themselves. It should be that simple.
I agree. If you build it, they will come. If you shut them off from the free stuff, they will go.
