Various Dem legislators and media mouth pieces spent the day yesterday talking about how they have a "bipartisan" bill to secure the border and send money to Ukraine and Israel. It was the biggest show of nonsense we have witnessed possibly since the response to COVID.
One of the things that Dems do is "never let a crisis go to waste". Create a crisis and when the people say "do something", government agents then go about expanding their power. It's an old trick and it continues to work. This bill was nothing more than Democrats taking yet another inch on their quest for the metaphorical mile.
Lets get this out of the way first: There is no need for any laws. Period. We have all the laws already on the books. The problem isn't the law, it is the non-enforcement thereof. The "crisis" is not the numbers. The crisis is the unwillingness to do what the law demands. It is the unwillingness of those in charge to do their jobs. It is a crisis of voters not holding their represantives to account. It is a crisis of parts of America holding the other in such contempt that they literally do not care what happens to them if it gets in the way of their showing how "good" they are.
Lastly, it is a crisis on communist agents to destroy America. Period.
It is already within the power of the president of the United States to declare "no entry" to any class of people. It is not subject to judicial review. This is why when SCOUTS interfered with Trump's power to do what has been called the Muslim ban, they should have been ignored just as Texas is currently defying the Feds.
It is already the law of the land that aiding persons to enter or stay illegally in the US is a crime. Yet there are actual government agencies along with multiple private parties engaging in this clearly illegal behavior. None of them have faced prosecution even though they have put their name to paper. Trump had the opportunity to go after these people but failed to do so. Now they are doing to him (RICO charges) what he should have done to them on year one of his presidency.
All these jurisdictions providing shelter and money to illegal aliens are in violation of the law. Period. Each of them should be seeing prosecutions. Perp walk entire city councils if need be.
Right now Democrats are arguing in court that Trump committed crimes while in office and that him holding office doesn't provide him with immunity. Fine. That then applies down to the members of NY and Chicago city councils. Let's go and arrest these people and put them on trial.
If Trump is guilty of insurrection because he vigorously made claims that the election was stolen from him and made a speech, then how can these sanctuary city leaders who have openly stated their defiance of law any less guilty?
Enough letting these Dems get away with that which they would do to Republicans or any other party that gets in their way. Knuckle up and defy their unlawful acts and put them on the dock when the opportunity arises or sit down and let strong spine people do the job.
Lastly, the idea that security of the US Border is somehow connected to sending money the US doesn't have to Ukraine, who, I remind the reader, broke it's treaty with Russia. Not to mention the US instigated removal of it's [Russia friendly] president, OR the US's continued eastward push via NATO even though there were promises not to do that.
And why is any money going to Israel? It's a relatively wealthy country that can defend itself (as we've seen via the rubble that is currently vast parts of Gaza).
It's pretty clear that to Democrats and a large portion of Republicans, the American citizen is just a sucker to be squeezed for money to send to someone else. Too many citizens are fine with that though. If they weren't the last few elections (and this primary) would have gone much differently.
