Democratic Senator Explains That ‘Undocumented Americans’ Are the People His Party ‘Care About Most’
https://www.mediaite.com ^ | Feb 8, 2024

Senator Chris Murphy (D-CT) declared that “undocumented Americans” — presumably a reference to migrants in the country illegally — were “the people we [Democrats] care about most” in an appearance on All In With Chris Hayes Wednesday night.

In a discussion about the now-defunct border and foreign aid bill rejected by congressional Republicans, Hayes teed Murphy up by noting that in his 20 years of covering the issue of illegal immigration, the trade that is typically made gives Republicans more border security and Democrats a pathway to citizenship.

“This time around, the negotiation didn’t have a path to citizenship. It was entirely on their [Republicans’] terms in order to get Ukraine funding, right?” asked Hayes.

“Well, I mean, Chris, that’s been a failed play for 20 years. So you are right that that has been the Democratic strategy for 30 years, maybe, and it has failed to deliver for the people we care about most, the undocumented Americans that are in this country,” replied Murphy. “This is also not 2013 any longer. When we ran that play last back then, there were a couple hundred people showing up every day applying for asylum. Today, on some days, there are 8,000. And the reality is, is that the bulk of this country does not think that that’s right or sustainable and wants us to change the reality at the border.” …

This guy’s been saying some interesting things these days. I don’t think he realizes how bad his words sound to many Americans. His candor should be encouraged. It feels good to tell the truth.

Well if Crissy wants a path to citizenship, I have a suggestion.

Part 1 - Round up every ILLEGAL and kick their asses out of the country NOW. Tell them to GET IN LINE at the border and APPLY for LEGAL entry. 10 years with no criminal record, citizenship test. ONE felony, never allowed back.

Part 2 - Round up EVERY DEMOCRAT POLITICIAN strip their citizenship and kick their asses out of the country NOW. Tell them to GET IN LINE at the border and APPLY for LEGAL entry. 10 years with no criminal record, citizenship test. Make ONE LIE, never allowed back.

If Democrats believe their number one priority is the welfare of ILLEGALS over American Citizens, DEMOCRATS are lower than whale crap on the bottom of the oceans!!!

why do they still get votes?

Possibly because "voter fraud" is more widespread than most people imagine.

Democrats screwed Reagan with the 1986 immigration deal. He reluctantly agreed to amnesty in return for strict limits on employment. Democrats and RINOs had no intention of halting the flow of cheap labor. Shame on RINOs for giving Biden the “bipartisan” label on the latest deal. They’re either traitors, stupid or both.

CBP sources exclusively told Fox News Channel that the number of apprehensions of those illegally crossing the southern border has reached an alarming 1,000,000 so far this fiscal year.

FY 2024 began on October 1, 2023. This is the earliest that the 1M milestone has ever been reached. In the last 24 hours, 6800 illegal immigrants were apprehended at the southern border. For comparison, the total for FY 2023 was 909,182 in the same period.

Numbers speak for themselves.

The Biden regime is threatening we, the people, taxpayers of the US in a statement released yesterday. The Biden White House says ICE will reduce deportations, and detention capacity........ if Republicans don’t pass the $115 billion border bill.

OBSERVATION - This level of aggressiveness, disdain and contempt towards the citizens of the US is something I never thought I’d see in my life time. (Godzilla)

Yes, because they don’t care about us at all.

We are useful to them as tools to achieve an end, which is power, control, and money, and beyond that, are nothing more than trash to be kicked to the curb when we are no longer useful to them.

Our lives are cheap and expendable to them.

Blame the republican "strategists" for that.

Biden can get in front of the black community and say...

"republicans are going to put y'all back in chains"...

... and get votes with that garbage.

Then once elected say...

“...(country) is doomed not just because of African Americans but because by 2040, this country is going to be minority White European. Hear me, minority White European. And you guys(black America)are going to have to start working with Hispanics, who make up a larger portion of population than y’all do.”

...basically not only putting them back in the back of the bus(after getting him elected by hook or by crook), but throwing them under the bus.

(new dem strategy...brown is the new black(votes)...black is the new white(dismiss/ignore)...).

....and the republican intelligentsia(yet again)...punts on a golden opportunity to score political points with the black community.

True.

President Trump signed comprehensive spending bills without wall funding on:
4/28/17
5/5/17
9/8/17
12/8/17
12/22/17
1/22/18
2/9/18
3/23/18
9/28/18
12/7/18
1/25/19
2/25/19

Republicans could have chosen a strong leader, but they chose Trump. AGAIN.

First, they aren’t immigrants. Second, they aren’t Americans. Third, he’s a traitor and should be brought up on charges.
