Immigration

In the immigration category you will find posts about the failure of our government to enforce the law and the consequences of doing nothing while holding out for a sweeping immigration amnesty juggernaut that Democrats and Republicans will never be able to agree on.

Federal Government spends while Biden lures illegals over the border

Few things showcase the insanity of our partisan immigration policies better than the Biden administration's wide open border that hands America to anyone who makes the journey. Meanwhile, states and sanctuary cities pass out driver's licenses for illegals,, resident college tuition and financial aid, and assurances of protection from law enforcement that promise a better life in America funded by taxpayers.

Fairness, justice, and hypocrisy

Immigration reform is not about fairness or justice. If it was, we would not be arguing over welfare for illegals or protecting Americans with legislation like Kate’s Law and bills to reign in dangerous immigrants. This contentious issue has turned into a debate over opposites: how much can the left dole out to curry favor with immigrant special interests and how much of the right’s push to close our gates is just?

H.R. 6: Dream for Illegals is Another Promise to Fail

Democrats are taking another stab at immigration policy failure. In typically deceptive fashion they called H.R. 6 The American Dream and Promise Act at its March 12, 2019 unveiling. The real purpose of this bill is less flashy and a lot more honest: To authorize the cancellation of removal and adjustment of status of certain aliens, and for other purposes. That’s … [Read more...] about H.R. 6: Dream for Illegals is Another Promise to Fail

Children Died Because of Democratic Policy, Not the CBP

Our definition of child abuse is pretty broad. We lock up parents for leaving their children in overheated or unheated cars, for refusing to vaccinate, for leaving drugs around the house, and a host of other dangerous behaviors that put kids’ lives at risk. Not so with asylum seekers. The recent deaths of two children at the border were pinned on people trying to do their jobs … [Read more...] about Children Died Because of Democratic Policy, Not the CBP

Caravan from Honduras: DHS Figures Prove Democrats Wrong

October 21, 2018 by Bob Prokop Leave a Comment

DHS figures on increase of unauthorized immigrants from Honduras.

There is no length Democrats won’t go to in their quest to bring more dependence to U.S. taxpayers. Their story of bedraggled, beaten-down refugees from Central America culls up lots of sympathy from the left, but how much of what they tell us about the caravan from Honduras stands up to the facts? Not much, according to annual reports from Homeland Security. Democrats … [Read more...] about Caravan from Honduras: DHS Figures Prove Democrats Wrong

Hispanic Culture is Not the Heritage Democrats Celebrate

Hands bound: how Democrats view Hispanic culture

Not all Hispanics in America are illegal, poor, or both. Unfortunately, that’s the impression spread by the Democratic Party. When Democrats talk about Hispanic culture during Hispanic Heritage Month they focus on illegal immigration and the hurricane death toll in Puerto Rico. Both issues are favorites for attacking the president. Neither has anything to do with celebrating … [Read more...] about Hispanic Culture is Not the Heritage Democrats Celebrate

Federal Officers Rejected by Extremist Anti-ICE Democrats

August 3, 2018 by Bob Prokop Leave a Comment

Until now Democrats were long-time supporters of government workers and labor interests. They just finished blasting the Supreme Court for the Janus public sector union decision and Republican anti-union policies will factor hugely into the coming midterm elections. How do federal officers who are also union members factor into the party’s agenda? That question creates a huge … [Read more...] about Federal Officers Rejected by Extremist Anti-ICE Democrats
