Illegal immigration
December 1, 2024 — Steven Hayward
All of a sudden even liberal politicians, here and abroad, are publicly confessing “concern” about unlimited immigration. Justin Trudeau hopped the first plane to Mar-a-Lago after Trump threatened Canada with 25 percent tariffs if they don’t stop bad actors from exploiting our northern border. (A 25% tariff on Canada would have a significant impact on Canada’s economy.) But before departing Trudeau posted this: Over in Britain, Prime Minister Keir Starmer,

Jose Ibarra, a citizen of Venezuela and a member of the Tren de Aragua gang, entered the U.S. illegally at El Paso in 2022. Ibarra was apprehended by ICE, but in keeping with Biden Administration policy, he was “paroled and released for further processing.” In other words, he was let go and was on his own inside the U.S. Ibarra made his way to New York City; I don’t know

The press is hysterical about the prospect of mass deportations of illegal aliens, now that Trump is taking office. A few typical headlines: * Trump Signals That He’s Serious About Mass Deportation (The Atlantic) * Donald Trump has promised a closed border and mass deportations. Those affected are taking action now (CNN) * Mayor Adams opposes mass deportation but says he will work with Trump on immigration (PIX 11) *

California Sen. Alex Padilla, appointed by Gov. Gavin Newson as the replacement for Kamala Harris, wants the Treasury Department to provide voter registration services for “people with limited English.” The senator nobody voted for is a key figure in enabling those not eligible to cast ballots. This is hardly a new development. As a State Department investigation discovered, false-documented illegals have voted in local, state, and federal elections for decades.

Democrats treat illegal voters as a core constituency. Draw your own inferences. Given the millions of illegal aliens welcomed by Biden and Harris, the administration is looking for something in return. The administration wants their vote. After all the administration has given them, it’s only fair. Thus the Biden Department of Justice absurd suit to prevent Virginia from extracting illegal aliens from its voter rolls. Andrew McCarthy analyzes the administration’s

The Harris campaign dispatched President Clinton to stump for the Democratic ticket in Georgia. As in days of old, Clinton visited a local McDonald’s. In a career full of ups and downs, Clinton must have hit a new low here. The cashier mistook him for President Biden. Ouch! BREAKING: Bull Clinton is at a McDonalds in Georgia encouraging voters to support Kamala Harris. It’s all hands on deck in the

“Aside from that, how did you enjoy the play, Mrs. Lincoln?” is a question so stupid that it is a one-line joke. Martha Raddatz rolled on at greater length with Senator Vance this morning on This Week (full video here, transcript here, clip below), but her question/statement ranked up with the Mrs. Lincoln joke for stupidity: RADDATZ: I want to — we played some other comments about migrants and migrants

The opening of the border by President Biden and Vice President Harris is an unforgivable act of subversion. During the 2020 campaign, Harris advocated it and on day one of his administration, Biden signed a set of executive orders that began to effectuate it. The dissolution of our border was the policy of the Biden-Harris administration. See this euphemistic White House fact sheet and Byron York’s April 2021 Examiner column

When I was a kid, it was a proud boast that the US-Canada border is the longest unguarded border in the world. That is still true, but we may need to start guarding it. Our northern border is not as much of a disaster as the southern border, only because it is so far from Mexico. But things are getting much worse: The number of migrants caught crossing a stretch

It is no coincidence that, in last night’s debate, immigration was the issue on which the moderators intervened to try to stop the Democratic Party’s bleeding. The Biden/Harris administration’s immigration policies have been disastrous, unless they are actually trying to destroy our country. In which case they make perfect sense. My colleague David Zimmer recaps the Biden/Harris debacle by the numbers. There is more at the link; here are some

In March of 2021, Joe Biden appointed Kamala Harris to take charge of the border. Since then, the Biden-Harris administration ushered in some 10 million illegals, with no criminal background checks. With crime by these illegals a raging issue with voters, Harris made a rather odd choice to introduce her at an event in Douglas, Arizona, last Friday. Doing the honors was Tori Verber Salazar, former district attorney of California’s

This past Friday Kamala Harris made a rare appearance at the border wall near Tucson. Harris proposed fake restrictions that would have no effect on the invasion of illegal aliens that she invited, facilitated, and then lied about during her years in office as vice president in the incumbent administration. The video below compiled by the Daily Caller includes clips from Harris’s Meet the Press interview in September 2022 (transcript

Kamala Harris’ plan to visit the border has recalled her support for illegal alien Sergio Garcia to obtain a license to practice law, a move opposed by the Obama DOJ. Garcia is now the poster child for the policies Harris would apply as president. The media spin it as a feel-good story, but some facts need clarification. Garcia’s parents brought him to the United States as a toddler but when

President Biden invited, aided, and abetted the massive wave of illegal immigration that we have seen — or experienced even if we haven’t been looking — since the first day of his administration. Vice President Harris campaigned in 2109 on the same theme and has served as Biden’s faithful ally in abetting the invasion since her election along with him. The invasion has a panoply of adverse effects that include

There are several great issues on which the presidential election (and Congressional elections, too) should turn. One is our out of control national debt, which promises to first hamstring our government, then bankrupt us. But no one is talking about it. Another is America’s deteriorating military readiness. The Europeans are scrambling to defend themselves against possible Russian attack; that in itself is a good thing. But they are doing it

For me, the reversal of the incredibly destructive policies of the Biden-Harris administration is the leading issue in the campaign. First among these policies is the Biden-Harris administration’s support of illegal immigration. It can’t go on like this. I didn’t have CNN exposing that wacky Kamala on my bingo card. Yet here we have CNN’s Erin Burnett and Andrew Kaczynski looking into the mixed-up files of Ms. Kamala D. Harris
