“We decry hostility and discrimination towards immigrants as antithetical to the traditions and interests of the country. At the same time, we disagree with those who would label efforts to control immigration as being inherently anti-immigrant. Rather, it is both a right and a responsibility of a democratic society to manage immigration so that it serves the national interest.” ~ Rep. Barbara Jordan – Chair, U.S. Commission on Immigration Reform
Recently while driving from town to my house, I was running through some radio stations when I landed on the Glenn Beck show. His guest was Lara Logan, a journalist and commentator unfamiliar to me, and I was sickened and horrified by what I heard. I wish I were exaggerating, but what that woman had to say left me depressed for the rest of the day.
We are being invaded – and not just by illegal immigrants. Continue reading
Biden’s three choices: Detain illegal migrants, remove or expel them, or send them back across the border to wait
No Mas!
On August 13, Judge Matthew Kacsmaryk of the U.S. District Court for the Northern District of Texas issued an order enjoining the Biden administration’s termination of the Migrant Protection Protocols (MPP), better known as “Remain in Mexico”. The court did not force any DHS officer to return any illegal migrant to Mexico (it admitted it lacked that power), but made clear that the administration had three choices: Detain illegal migrants, remove or expel them, or send them back across the border. Continue reading
More than 5,000 illegal immigrants have been discovered inside stash houses around Laredo, Texas, since last fall, according to local authorities, an indication of how many are evading Border Patrol agents at the United States-Mexico border and getting away.
Since President Joe Biden took office in January, the number of migrants encountered illegally coming across the border has reached a 21-year high . Laredo has seen an increase in the number of people who are sneaking past law enforcement on the border and making it to stash houses where smugglers hold their human cargo before moving them further into the country, according to Laredo Mayor Pete Saenz.

From the 1965 Immigration Act to the present, the Democratic Party and the likes of Senator Ted Kennedy, along with many RINOs too, have turned our immigration policy on its head and opened the doors to some of the worst people in the world while making it virtually impossible for educated white people to immigrate to America from all parts of Europe. Wave after wave of new immigrants, many legal and many more illegal, have arrived by the millions, over those preceding decades that have been a benefit to the nation at times and a detriment and drag on our systems in too many more.
How this all ends is anyone’s guess, but I venture to say, given the current trajectory, it doesn’t end well, and while there may still exist an outline in geography books called “America”, it will be far removed from the America of 1492, and far, far and away from anything remotely resembling the America of 1776, or even the America of my childhood.

Projections reveal at least 1 million illegal immigrants will have been encounter by Customs and Border Protection by the end of July. Numbers for June have not yet been released, but a knowledgable source revealed CBP will show they encountered 188,000 illegal immigrants last month
From January to May, 711,784 migrants were encountered by Customs and Border Protection at the southern border – five times the amount during the same period in 2020 – and the Biden administration is on track to encounter 1 million by the end of July.
CBP’s latest data, released in June, show that there were 180,034 encounters with illegal crossers in May, the highest of any month in the last 20 years. The spike in migration under President Joe Biden’s administration continues to grow with no signs of it coming to a stop any time soon. Continue reading
Since Florida Governor Ron DeSantis announced last week that he would send state law enforcement officers to Texas and Arizona, six other governors have offered to help, including Kentucky Democrat Governor Andy Beshear. Continue reading
20 Governors sent a letter to Pres. Joe Biden and Vice President Kamala Harris, urging them to take immediate action to end the ongoing border crisis and noting the impacts that the crisis has on state resources.
The letter was sent just two days before the Department of Homeland Security released official apprehension numbers for April.
Border Patrol officers apprehended 173,460 illegal border crossers last month — a 20-year high and an increase of more than 4,000 from the previous month. There was a small drop in the number of Unaccompanied Alien Children (UAC) who were apprehended, but nearly 17,000 were still apprehended after crossing the border illegally. Continue reading
The wicked flee when no one pursues, but the righteous are bold as a lion. When a land transgresses, it has many rulers, but with a man of understanding and knowledge, its stability will long continue. A poor man who oppresses the poor is a beating rain that leaves no food. Those who forsake the law praise the wicked, but those who keep the law strive against them. Evil men do not understand justice, but those who seek the Lord understand it completely…
The situation along the United States-Mexico border worsens as the Biden Administration continues to hold up a vacancy sign to the world. The humanitarian crisis that is happening because of President Biden’s dereliction of duty is coming to a neighborhood near you.
It is Biden’s invitation to “surge to the border” that has brought more human, sex, and drug trafficking than ever before. A group of 112 individuals recently entered the U.S. illegally and surrendered to Border Patrol agents. In today’s world that isn’t so unusual. Continue reading
We may not know the full cost of Biden’s immigration “policy” for another few years, but whatever it amounts to over the next decade, it’s already cost too much in the here and now, when we consider its true purpose is to end our republic as we know it. Continue reading
As the number of migrants illegally flowing across the U.S. southern border accelerates, the Biden administration is running out of facilities to house these illegals and has decided to charter flights to fly them up to states on the northern border. Read that again. S – L – O – W – L – Y !

Back in 1986 I read a book by Sol Sanders called Mexico: Chaos on Our Doorstep. It went into many of the problems this country has had with Mexico over the decades. There was one particular chapter that dealt with the immigration problems with Mexico, chapter 7, entitled Mexicans for Export. This dealt with population problems in Mexico and why so many Mexicans end up in this country, although the problem back then pales into insignificance compared to what we deal with today on our Southern border.

January 17, 2018 ~ The Trump administration declared Saturday (January 17) to be Barbara Jordan Day, the 22nd anniversary of the legendary former Texas congresswoman’s passing. Presidents often make such declarations to honor heroes from our country’s past. However, Jordan was no relic from a bygone era. She was a trailblazer on many issues, not the least of which was immigration policy. Our country would greatly benefit if more of the players in the current immigration debate shared her vision. Continue reading
It’s no secret that the Democrat Party has only one “principle,” namely the acquisition and maintenance of power by any means necessary. And if that means taking a position today that is the polar opposite of a position taken yesterday, so be it. That such intellectual dishonesty and ideological bankruptcy requires large dollops of hypocrisy to sustain it is also no secret. Yet sometimes that hypocrisy is so blatant, and what it produces is so disconnected from rational thinking, it deserves highlighting. This is one of those moments. Continue reading
June 22, 2017 – Most illegal immigrants who pay taxes have stolen someone else’s legal identity, and the IRS doesn’t do a very good job of letting those American citizens and legal immigrants know they’re being impersonated, the tax agency’s inspector general said in a new report released Thursday.
The theft creates major problems for the American citizens and legal foreign workers whose identities are stolen, and who have to deal with explaining money they never earned. Continue reading
August 8, 2010 ~ Here is a REAL INTERVIEW with an illegal Mexican at a protest march in Texas, which provides a good example of a discussion with a master of circular logic. Don’t be logical, don’t respect the truth or your adversary, just say what you think makes a new case, when the previous case gets too difficult to defend.

In January, international human rights groups pummeled the government of Guatemala for its use of batons, tear gas, and troops to break up a migrant caravan that had swelled to some 9,000 people mainly on incoming President Joe Biden’s promises that all who wished to cross the U.S. border would find a warm embrace inside the United States.

Supreme Court of the United States
1 First Street, NE
Washington, DC 20543
Dear Supreme Court Justices,
You are scheduled on February 19th, this year, to make a decision on whether to hear, consider and make a ruling on the lawsuits before you pertaining to the presidential election of 2020. In the Texas case, both justices, Sam Alito and Clarence Thomas, agreed to hear the case. They are due the respect and appreciation that the other seven of you frittered away. Continue reading
My recent trip to the southwest border took me across three states, California, Arizona, and Texas, and each of the areas had varying degrees of COVID-19 restrictions. You can’t eat indoors in a restaurant in California, but you can in Arizona and Texas. Mask wearing in many public places is mandatory and there were testing sites in the airports in which I landed.
