“Never underestimate the left’s desire to take full control of the country and destroy any and all opposition...............”

I don’t. I’m well aware that those in power will attempt to defy any limits to their power:

” the love of power, which has been so often the cause of slavery, — has, whenever freedom has existed, been the cause of freedom. If it is this principle that has always prompted the princes and nobles of the earth, by every species of fraud and violence to shake off all the limitations of their power, it is the same that has always stimulated the common people to aspire at independency, and to endeavor at confining the power of the great within the limits of equity and reason.” - John Adams, 1765

If the existing limits to power have proven insufficient, then the people, through their legislatures, need to limit power further. The Article V provision in the Constitution exists for just this purpose.

Yes, and I predict that if the number of required states approval gets close, then there will be all out electoral war in those states yet to be decided.

Where are those newly arrived ‘children’ from south of the border being taken, housed and fed?

They are pawns for the left to use....................
