Amnesty in Other Words

Every time I decide that Trump is too far gone and maybe I should vote for Biden, the President comes out with something like this. The extraordinary dishonesty of this statement feels like a slap in the face.

What the flying bucket do we, the voters, care whether the migrants are inconvenienced for 6 months or 60 years? What we want to know is how many of them will be dragged over the border to await the “asylum” decision. Another important question is what percentage will be denied and on what criteria. (For those who don’t know: the bill radically lowers the criteria). Yet another question is how many will be deported if the decision is negative.

This “border security bill” is amnesty, pure and simple.

“Here! We have proposed measures for border security! They consist of rubber-stamping more immigrants faster! The only reason why Republicans don’t want this brilliant solution is because they are afraid Trump won’t be able to run on immigration after it.”

Biden is saying it completely openly. And people are so anaesthesized by the media spin that they nod and say, yes, this will solve the problem, totally.

Republicans oppose this bill because voters don’t want amnesty. Voters want an immediate and massive reduction in migration numbers. All voters, not just Republicans.

And, folks, this is just one small part of the bill. It goes on and on, listing the categories of illegal migrants who should be speedily given green cards. It’s an enormous expansion of who is entitled to a legal status. Will that expansion reduce the number of people eager to cross the border? The answer is obvious.

Men are women, amnesty is border security. And people get caught up in these language games every single time. We should be thankful that there is still a handful of Republicans who are refusing to accept this absolute travesty.

And hey, do you know what people in Ukraine told me about this? One person said, “please, don’t let Democrats push this through. We desperately need military aid but if you let this bill get signed, the next step will be that the Dems will force us to accept 5,5 million migrants. They’ve already been talking about this.” This is a direct quote from a guy who just returned from the front lines. I heard similar things from others.
