Important thing to remember: many legal immigrants do NOT vote for Democrats.

Many people who came from communist countries recognize communism, when they see it and recognize the true nature of the Dem agenda and did not, nor would they ever vote for it.

Immigrants were the backbone of the Democrat Party long before 1965. The Irish were as dependable Democrat voters ss was the Solid South. As were the Jews and Italians. Germans were more evenly split.My grandfather voted 4 times for FDR enen though as governor of NY FDR broke the power of Tammany and cost my grandfather his position in NYC govt, senfing him back to being a lowly court reporter and costing my mom her chance at college. She never voted Dem. Contrary to the position of my Italian dad, a union member who voted for FDR in 44 then for Truman, Stevenson as did his father in law. So this article’s author needs a refersher on American political history.

There are immigrants who work hard to come here assimilate and become citizens.

Then, there are illegal border-crossing invaders who come here for free stuff, do not have any intention of assimilating or becoming citizens, and have no skills or money. These are the people WE do not want, but Democrats and Republican politicians do want.

” more than 45 million people have immigrated to the United States”

And what did those 45 million do to deserve to “move to” the United States 200 years after the Americans did the heavy lifting of fighting the wars and settling the land and creating the single most successful nation on Earth?

And why should those of us whose families were part of that knuckle under and live under rules these people now want to force on us?

Not only do immigrants vote left, so do their children—and their children’s children.

Which explains WHY democrats don't care if illegals murder, rape or steal jobs from Americans. They want the borders open to keep their 'voters' flooding across.

Excerpt from the DiscoverTheNetworks.org report on Rahm Emanuel:

Shortly after Clinton’s electoral victory in 1992, Emanuel began pushing the new President to exploit the issue of immigration for his political advantage. Heeding Emanuel’s advice, in September 1994 Clinton met with Daniel Solis, president of the Chicago-based United Neighborhood Organization (UNO), a Hispanic advocacy group. Solis told Clinton that if he could somehow swiftly naturalize the ever-growing number of non-citizen immigrants residing in the U.S., he would have a “great opportunity” to increase the pool of potential voters who might support his re-election bid in 1996.

Clinton instructed Solis to stay in contact with Emanuel on this matter; Solis and Emanuel soon coordinated a scheme — which was titled “Citizenship USA” and was headquartered in Vice President Al Gore’s office — to fast-track the naturalization process for both legal and illegal immigrants before the 1996 election. According to one INS security official:

“The goal was to speed up the process and turn as many legal residents and illegals into Clinton voters as possible…. Rahm was doing it under the guise of Al Gore’s Reinventing Government program. He [Emanuel] was definitely the point man and was past his neck in the scandal at INS…. He got every rule changed in the hiring of adjudicators so they could naturalize more Mexican nationals to vote for Bill Clinton, not to mention getting the rules changed to naturalize anyone [regardless of their immigration status or criminal history]…. They had immigration ceremonies at stadiums with DNC [Democratic National Committee] staff registering them as voters right there.”

At one Chicago ceremony held inside the Soldier Field football stadium, approximately 11,000 new citizens were sworn in en masse.

A former INS district director, William Carroll, stated that in March 1996 he and his colleagues had been given “marching orders” to naturalize as many new citizens as possible in advance of the November election, even in the absence of criminal and national security background checks of the applicants. INS deportation officer Tom Conklin concurred that he and other agents had been pressured to approve the citizenship applications of immigrants “with two or three arrests for crimes like burglary.”

Justice Department Inspector General Glenn Fine subsequently conducted an investigation of Emanuel’s role in the citizenship scheme. Fine concluded that “the INS had compromised the integrity of naturalization adjudications as a result of its efforts to process applicants more quickly and meet a self-imposed goal of completing more than a million cases by the end of fiscal year 1996.”

According to Fine, the Clinton administration had followed “inadequate procedures for checking criminal histories and fingerprints.” Fine added that Emanuel had refused his request for an interview.

Would that be legal or illegal immigrants?

Monday through Friday of this last week, our little podunk county turned over 100+ illegals to ICE and US Marshals. That’s business as usual. Multiply that 100+ across the nation. Yes, we do indeed have an emergency.

How many legal immigrants came here on false purposes? How many lied to get in? How many married their brother to get in and then ran for office in order to change the US?

And? The immigration laws are not going to be tightened from her on out, only weakened. We had our chance from 2017-18.

Republican POTUS nominee has lost the popular vote in 6 of the last 7 elections.

Whites stopped reproducing. They chose what is coming.

One thing the Mexican Constitution has that we should consider doing.Mexico has no hyphenated Mexicans. They prohibit any reference to race when they conduct a census or issue any means of identification, Where a physical description is needed skin color yes but not by race or nationality or tribal background.By doing this Mexico has avoided “balkanizing”, creating fractional disputes in areas where a given group in one of its states is a majority or a minority.Plus it could shut this political playing on racial division down

Democrats were on the losing side of the Civil Rights Movement

so they imported voters who had no clue what the CRM was, just like the Dems now want to import those who have no clue what American identity is

The Hart-Celler Act did reignite mass immigration and start the mass legal influx of new Democrats, but it was just the first piece, albeit the biggest as it kicked off chain migration from the third world.

Adding to the influx of future Democrats was the Refugee Act passed in the early 1980s, and the Immigration Act of 1990. The latter created the absurd Diversity Lottery visas, the H1B visas, and expanded chain migration.

The last time good immigration reform had a decent chance at passage was in 1996 with the Smith-Simpson bill, which would have largely undone the 1990 Act, though left the other components of mass immigration in place. But even that moderate legislation was too much for Republican proponents of mass immigration like Dick Armey, Sam Brownback, Spence Abraham, and a staffer named Paul Ryan. They successfully torpedoed the bill allowing Clinton off the hook of signing or vetoing it.
