Mayorkas: Americans’ Priorities Are Subordinate to ‘Nation of Immigrants’
Breitbart ^ | 5/10/23 | Neil Munro

Posted on 05/10/2023 4:18:28 PM PDT by CFW

President Joe Biden’s border chief Alejandro Mayorkas was asked Wednesday if his huge and growing inflow of economic migrants is good for Americans’ wages and rents, and he replied that this is a “Nation of Immigrants.”

The Cuban-born, pro-migration border chief took a few procedural questions from picked journalists when he presented part of his new plans to import more migrants into Americans’ workplaces and neighborhoods. “Our president has led the largest expansion of legal pathways ever,” Mayorkas said to a mostly empty press room.

But Breitbart News asked about the fairness of Mayorkas’s maximum-migration policies for ordinary Americans at a time of sliding wages, rising rents, and expanding civic chaos:

BBN: How do Americans gain from the immigration paths you are opening, sir? No [journalists] ever asks, “Do Americans gain from all the immigrants who you bring in — [even though] wages get pushed down, rents get pushed up.”

Mayorkas: Sir, we are a nation of immigrants. And we are a nation of laws. Individuals who qualify for relief under our laws have a basis to remain in the United States. The contributions of immigrants to this country is quite clear.

Biden and Mayorkas are violating federal law.

There is no law

In New York, the law is a weaponized negro. The DOJ is a weaponized political concept

Life is valued too high

If there is no law, then there is no law

Folks if we don’t do SOMETHING drastic but peaceful we are going to be Venezuela FULL STOP!!


“Those who profess to favor freedom, yet deprecate agitation, are men who want crops without plowing up the ground. They want rain without thunder and lightening. They want the ocean without the awful roar of its many waters. This struggle may be a moral one; or it may be a physical one; or it may be both moral and physical; but it must be a struggle. Power concedes nothing without a demand. It never did and it never will.”
Frederick Douglass.

Make sure there’s a bald guy with tree trunk arms named Bubba in there with them.

My grandparents came in through Ellis Island, Mayorkas. They went through humiliating medical examinations and were grilled about their politics and backgrounds (except my maternal grandfather who was an infant). So GFYS and your notion of a “Nation of Immigrants”. Immigrants are willing to go through a process, have sponsors responsible for them to keep them from becoming dependent on the welfare system, and work hard. These are invaders, not “immigrants”.

Let's have this parasite emigrate back to Cuba! Obviously, the USA is not good enough for him.

Americans better wake-up and demand better governance.

I’m tired of people saying “nation of immigrants” like we don’t know that. But the legal immigrants came through the front door as required; via Ellis Island/NIS and were processed through there; they did not sneak across any border.

ONLY the DO”J” also burns the US Constitution
each morning so they won’t be reminded of their Oaths.

These “people” are traitors, known to millions
WHO DO NOTHING as the Republic is murdered by their
actions and inaction.

Mayorkas is a lying POS.

In more ways than one.

We are a nation of immigrants. He left out the important part. Those people were quick to relieve themselves of that status, in order to become Americans.

Today’s illegal aliens masquerading as immigrants with government enabling the myth. Those immigrants didn’t look suspiciously like an enemy invasion force.

Expect a younger, less informed, Congress.

To: Does so; All
Thank you for replying Does so. "Expect a younger, less informed, Congress."

Consider that one of the very few powers that the states have actually expressly constitutionally given to Congress to dictate peacetime domestic policy is to run the US Mail Service.

In other words, most federal domestic policy is based on state powers, and uniquely associated state revenues, that the corrupt, post-17th Amendment ratification feds are regularly stealing from the states, state revenues stolen by means of unconstitutional federal taxes according to the excerpt from Gibbons v. Ogden above.

In fact, since the drafters of the Constitution had intended for the peacetime federal government to basically be in lame duck mode 24/7, after Trump 47 finishes draining the swamp, he and Congress can follow Obama's example and spend more time on the golf courses while keeping the mail moving.

So I think that a younger, less informed Congress can handle the mail service.

On the other hand, since the plurality of Congress's constitutional Article I, Section 8-limited duties are military related, electing military retirees to Congress is a consideration.
