One of life’s pleasures is watching liberalism destroy itself. Maybe that’s mean, but honestly, after all the damage the left has done to the country, I find it increasingly difficult to give a damn when one of the monsters they’ve unleashed on the country returns to destroy their castle. I rather enjoy it, actually.
In this case, I’m talking about the illegal alien invasion happening at our southern border. Far too many “conservative news” outlets refuse to call it that, opting instead to roll with the words the left have bastardized – calling illegals “migrants.” They aren’t migrants – migrants migrate, meaning they come and go, for whatever reason (food, seasons, work, etc.). These illegal aliens aren’t going anywhere, at least voluntarily, ever. They need to be forcibly removed – deported – and Joe Biden is not the man who’s going to do that. He’s the one who started this idiotic, destructive game of red rover with the world through Mexico, he simply does not care about the devastation in his wake – he’ll be long-dead by the time the real price is known, unless he’s replaced by someone who actually cares about Americans.
There isn’t a Democrat in the country who can be described as someone who cares about Americans more than illegal aliens. Not one.
That’s what makes it all the more sweeter now that we’re seeing liberal cities and states suffer the economic pain they happily supported being forced on conservative areas along the border.
Remember when these people insisted illegals were the economic engine driving the country? That’s been the standard left-wing lie, er, line for a decade. They were better than horrible Americans, worked harder, contributed more to society (even though, thanks to language barriers and illiteracy even in their native tongues, they weren’t able to participate in it), and committed fewer crimes than we awful Americans.
That’s now been exposed for the lie it is, as Democrat after Democrat whine and complain about the costs associated with a relatively small number of illegals compared to what their “progressive” open borders policies force border towns to endure on a weekly basis.
If illegals were so wonderful, New York City, Chicago, etc., wouldn’t be whining about the strain on their social services, they’d be counting the increased tax revenue and begging for more to be sent to their areas.
But everything Democrats have said about illegal aliens has been a lie. They aren’t an economic plus, they’re a disaster. To the extent they pay taxes (and don’t work under the table), it amounts to a drop in the bucket compared to cost of social programs they Hoover up like Hunter Biden in a room full of cocaine-covered hookers. Their kids cost a fortune to educate because they know no English and can’t even read in their own language. American children suffer, but no Democrat gives a damn.
Now New York is pleading for mercy. After a year of illegals flooding the city, still amounting to a fraction of their population and about half of what Texas experiences monthly, they’re going broke. That boost the economy hasn’t materialized, just a bunch of working age men not working, but drinking themselves into a stupor in the city’s expensive hotels while wasting food the city buys for them. The only growth industries surrounding these illegals are prostitution and drugs.
Crimes skyrocketed and Americans suffered. Democrats said nothing because they don’t care, they want the potential future voters.
But the money, oh the money. New York City Mayor Eric Adams now says these illegals “will destroy New York City.” Good, and good riddance.
That the financial hub of the world, with a population of more than 8 million, can be crippled to the point of bankruptcy by just over 100,000 illegals over a year is a testament to the lies liberals tell.
So, let New York die. Let Chicago die. New Jersey, Massachusetts, everywhere these sanctuary leftists rule and are currently choking on what they’ve supported imposing on others, let them collapse. And enjoy the view as it happens.
This is what these Democrats voted for, at least when it was impacting only red areas along the border. Well, to quote the great John McClane from when he saved Nakatomi Tower from a different terrorist invasion, “Welcome to the party, pal.” They loved to virtue signal to their friends about how enlightened they were compared to those racist rednecks complaining of invasion. Now that they have to step over sleeping junkies and bodily waste to just go to the grocery store or take their kid to school, it’s different. It impacts them now. And they want it to stop.
They don’t want the invasion to be stopped and the border secured, they want it to stop impacting them, that’s all. They’re better than everyone else, they’re progressive! Send these troubles back to the great unwashed, suckers who live in buildings without a doorman where zero members of the chardonnay club have any kids currently transitioning, or even a chardonnay club to begin with.
No thank you. Let these cities choke to death on their compassion by proxy attitude, and just sit back and enjoy the view. I will.
Not just NYC. Pretty much ALL large and medium-size cities run by Democrats.
They need to be forcibly removed – deported – and Joe Biden is not the man who’s going to do that.
I agree...but who is the man to do it? Trump? He can try but he was thwarted last time, tho he did suppress the influx.
Yeah, I agree: if 100,000 folk cripples a city of 8+mil, then you are treating them too well...cut the bennies to survival rates and be done. They sure as hell don’t do as much for their “native” homeless...try treating the illegals like them. Bet their problems are greatly reduced.
Otherwise, embrace the suck, leftist sanctuary hellholes. FOAD.
Marxist Dems have run NYC into the ground.
Blue cities like Chicago and New York deserve every drop of misery they've inflicted on the rest of us for decades.
Amen! For years I hoped that “rising seas” would inundate NYC, then I realized - the bastards would move to my town.
The largest city I can think of that does not have a Democrat as mayor (or de facto Democrat) is Fort Worth. Chicago has not had a Republican mayor since 1928. Detroit and San Francisco, not since the 1950s. Even cities once Republican like Indianapolis are now Democrat. What is more, the Democrats have morphed into a Leftist party. Gone are the days of Sam Yorty, Richard Daley, and Frank Rizzo.
The Left studied the machine politics of the old school Democratic bosses. They saw that these mayors had an outsized influence on national politics, and probably used their control of the ballot box to cause the Democrats to win the Presidency in 1960 and 1976. What happened in 2020 was a parallel to 1960 and 1976, just on a bigger scale (Biden said the Democrats had the best voter fraud operation ever).
Democrat whining about “gimme illegals” pouring into their freebie-laden sanctuary cities, are sick; liberal cities and states in economic pain that they happily inflicted on border areas. “Tolerant and compassionate” libs preached the standard left-wing lie, insisting
<><>illegals were the economic engine driving our country
<><>better people than us horrible Americans,
<><>they worked harder,
<><>contributed more to society than breakfast burritos
<><>and committed fewer crimes than those awful Americans.
So if illegals were so great, Massachusetts, NYC, Chicago, etc, wouldn’t be whining, they’d be raving about booming economies, counting the increased tax revenue, and begging for more illegals to pour in.
Everything virtue signalling Democrats said about illegal aliens has been a lie.
<><>They aren’t an economic plus, they’re a disaster.
<><>if they pay taxes at all, (many work sub rosa), it’s a drop in the bucket.
Compare the income to the outgo: costs of social programs they Hoover up like Hunter Biden in a room full of cocaine-covered hookers.

Yep, but people in “blue” cities can’t connect the dots.
Been in Scranton once; NYC, nine times, sadly never again.

GOP Gets the Democratic Border Crisis It Wanted
Gov. Greg Abbott of Texas vowed to bring the border to the Democratic cities he said were naively dismissing its costs.
He began sending migrants and asylum-seekers from the southwestern frontier to New York, Washington and Chicago,
Upshot......A year later, the migrant waves he helped set in motion have put northern “sanctuary” cities increasingly on edge, their budgets stretched, their communities strained.
A border crisis that has animated Republican politics for years is now dividing the Democratic Party.
Humanitarian impulses are crashing into desperate resource constraints, and once-loyal Democratic allies have reluctantly joined Republicans to train their fire on President Joe Biden.
So true.
Reminds me of Kim du Toit’s “Let Africa Sink.”
Let all cities die, they’re the shxtholes of civilization.
“...unless [Brandon is] replaced by someone who actually cares about Americans. “
I wonder who THAT might be? M(NY)GA! :)
“Gone are the days of Sam Yorty, Richard Daley, and Frank Rizzo.”
I don’t know those guys .... but I do remember
Lester Maddox and George Wallace ... they just don’t make Demoncrats like that anymore... now they are more stealth.
The big ROTTEN apple can die on the vine for all I care.
I’ve never been there and I have no inclination whatsoever
to go there.
Most of the people I see from there are people I’d never
really want to associate with, and the ‘greatest city on
Earth’ concept, was a massive turn-off since it first
reared it’s ugly head.
If that’s the first city, I’d sure hate to see the worst.
I’m sure there are decent people who live there, and I
have no ill will toward them. They aren’t the people I
see in the media.
Biden should be replaced by someone who actually cares about Americans.
...... who might THAT might be?
Everytime Michelle O is mentioned as a candidate, I get physically ill.
On the subject of Sam Yorty, he passed away and the Los
Angeles city council hardly acknowledge it, if at all.
There was no recognition whatsoever.
Then Tom Bradly died and it was heralded extensively in the
city.
Oh it was such a sad day in the city. Sorry, I wasn’t a
big fan of Bradly. I didn’t have a problem with him being
recognized, but after not even mentioning Yorty and his
passing, it was an insult to the memory of him.
I’m sure glad Leftists don’t hate at all.
She’s got hers. She’s put up with enough. And, she’s lazy. And she HATES America.
But I could see her getting elected. *SPIT*
