Entry into the United States by illegal aliens has been rising almost exponentially in the past decade. This has been a welcomed development by Democrats and has been opposed by some Republicans, though not all. The objections have come principally from American citizens whose views have been ignored by these elites. This has culminated in the staff of President Biden, particularly Alejandro Mayorkas, Secretary of Homeland Security (!), not only encouraging illegal entry into the country but ordering the Border Patrol not to interfere, i.e., essentially throwing the doors wide open. The Border Patrol is instead occupied with (cosmetic) paperwork. As if this was not enough, the Democratic Administration has been paying for airline passage to get more illegal immigrants into the country.
But there is another reason that Democrats want illegal immigration: they want to give them voting rights so they will vote for their saviors.
Once in the country, illegal aliens are given gift cards, free legal services, cellphones, healthcare, and are housed in hotels. All without their paying a dime. Los Angeles, run by Democrats, is even hiring illegal aliens to police American citizens. New York City’s Democrat government and Democratic Connecticut governor even wants illegal aliens to vote in elections. And every Democrat in the House of Representatives voted to give illegal aliens representation in Congress; Nancy Pelosi defended MS-13, blathering about “a spark of divinity.”
At times, veterans have even been kicked out of housing in order to house illegal aliens.
It has become obvious by now that these successive waves of mass migrations have been encouraged and well-orchestrated — by the very people paid to prevent illegal entry into the United States.
To add insult to injury, all this has been done at taxpayers’ expense.
Those individuals salivating over the sight of thousands of illegal aliens swarming through what used to be the country’s official border have tried to allay Americans’ anger through a wide variety of sophistries spread by the media, from “we’re a nation of immigrants” to “they’re hardworking, taxpaying immigrants” to “the border is under control” to “migrants are driving economic growth,” all the while avoiding the term “illegal aliens.” (READ MORE from Armando Simón: This Should Be Feminists’ Worst Nightmare)
Although the overwhelming number of illegal aliens are men, the mainstream media (which nowadays has become nothing more than propaganda) focuses its attention on the very few families accompanying them. Otherwise, they deliberately ignore the crisis.
It has been said by some critics, including this writer, that this situation is a de facto invasion, and there is precedent for just such a strategy. In the 1970s, Spain was in the process of negotiating leaving its colony, Spanish Sahara. Three entities coveted the territory: the indigenous population, Morocco, and Mauritania. The International Court of Justice’s Advisory opinion on Western Sahara was going to decide on who got what. Jumping the gun, the Moroccan government organized the “Green March,” wherein 350,000 Moroccans — unarmed — invaded the northern territory by simply crossing the border. And there they stayed. Essentially, the invaders relied on the humanitarian character of the Spaniards in order to take advantage of them.
Compassion can be used as a weapon by governments, special interests, or individuals.
Just like in the southern U.S. border.
The truly bizarre aspect to the American invasion is that it is being carried out and supported by leftists within and outside the federal government, specifically by the Democrats but also with some Republicans. And it has been going on for a decade.
The reason for this is just as bizarre and a bit convoluted. Bear with me.
Marxism is like herpes. Once you think it is finally gone for good, it flares up again, in different manifestations. This time the manifestation is through racial Marxism, for the simple reason that claiming that American workers are exploited as a class has little resonance with U.S. voters. For a long time, race was the fundamental fissure in American politics and blacks were easily cast as the new proletariat, the ones who would be central to carrying out the glorious revolution against oppressive capitalistic whites, whose entire culture must be destroyed and replaced — “The Great Replacement.” To facilitate the forthcoming utopia and with help from large and small employers, the Left has organized, financed, and advertised, mass migration from non-European countries.
At the same time that leftists openly advocate, and implement, “The Great Replacement,” they deny there is such a thing, labeling it a conspiracy theory. Just like they deny teaching the racist Critical Race Theory (CRT) — while defending its presence. Just like they deny censorship in the media while suppressing news and views they hate.
But there is another reason that Democrats want illegal immigration: they want to give them voting rights so they will vote for their saviors, the Democrats, even though they are not American citizens (yet another instance of election fraud by Democrats, who have a long, well documented history of electoral fraud). They are working towards this goal even as they deny doing so, and make elaborate justifications for it.
And should the reader believe that this is another “conspiracy theory,” note that in many Democratic controlled areas voter registration forms were handed out to illegal aliens in South Carolina, House Democrats voted unanimously to give illegal aliens representation in Congress and voted unanimously to block a Republican bill making it illegal for noncitizens to vote in federal elections, municipalities in three states and Washington D.C. already allow noncitizens to vote in local elections, and that Biden has referred to illegal aliens as “voters.”
Meanwhile, the media hivemind, as represented by the Washington Post, declared voting by noncitizens was “extremely rare,” while The New York Times called it a “false narrative,” Politico declared “there is no indication it’s happening anywhere in significant numbers,” NPR claimed it was an attempt by Republicans to “reshape election maps,” and the Associated Press simply poured scorn on the idea, but that, yes, it does happen, so what?
Why not have the people of Pakistan, Honduras, and Haiti vote in American elections from the comfort of their own countries?
There is one fly in the ointment regarding this grandiose plan to destroy America, the country they so passionately hate. Most blacks do not want illegal aliens entering the country, and certainly not all the perks that they are given, even as the illegal aliens demand more. I have also known many American citizens of Hispanic background that don’t want illegal immigration, and recent surveys seem to confirm this.
And then, there are the criminals. A number of illegal aliens are criminals, which is to say, they have committed crimes other than entering the country illegally. Before itemizing a small fraction of these crimes, let me say that Democrats have already waved away the crimes simply by saying that American citizens also commit crimes, so what’s the big deal? Which is supposed to be comfort to the victims of illegal immigrants.
Laken Riley, a nursing student at Augusta University College of Nursing was kidnapped and killed while jogging on the University of Georgia by an illegal immigrant from Venezuela. Referring to Riley’s murder, Democratic Rep. Katie Porter shrugged it off (so much for Sisterhood). Liberals’ reaction has been that her death demonstrates “Republicans’ racism.” That there is no illegal alien crime wave, that the real problem is violence against women. That Latino students will be persecuted if this crime is spoken of publicly. President Biden was criticized for calling the murderer an “illegal alien,” so he apologized. As Lord Acton said, behind every crime there follows a sophist with a sponge.

A “newcomer” (that is the new Politically Correct name for illegal alien that you must henceforth use) from Guatemala stabbed to death a woman and her daughter.
An illegal immigrant from Haiti raped a disabled 15 year-old girl. A Democrat’s politicians’ reaction to this crime was, essentially, who cares?
An illegal alien from Mexico murdered a woman and dumped her body by the side of the road.
In Washington state, an illegal alien from Mexico murdered a state trooper.
An illegal alien from India has committed numerous crimes, albeit none as serious as the above.

And many hundreds more. In fact, the Department of Homeland Security Enforcement and Removal Operations, which arrests and removes individuals who undermine the integrity of the U.S. immigration system, reported 1,500 homicide-related arrests in 2022.

Notice that you probably did not hear about these crimes from the media hivemind. That is not a coincidence, an accident, or an oversight. It was deliberate suppression. Furthermore, because Donald Trump wants to stop illegal immigration, to the media he is the real threat.
