A Nation Enriched by Legal Immigrants Now Buckles from Weight of Illegal Border Crossers and their Crimes

A nursing student bludgeoned to death near a tranquil Georgia college campus. A developmentally disabled person raped in Boston. A mother and son killed in a head-on crash in Colorado. New York’s finest assaulted in the heralded Times Square.

The roll-call of victims violated by Joe Biden’s border policies is rising as fast as the hotel and welfare tabs for sanctuary cities, thrusting an American society that long revered its immigrant heritage into a crisis of epic proportions driven by more than 8 million illegal border crossers since the 46th president took office.

That total surpasses the individual populations of more than half the republic’s states. And the impact by state and city becomes more staggering by the day.

Much of Texas – 53 counties and counting – has declared it is under invasion from illegal aliens. States a thousand or more miles from the southern border are dispatching precious police and National Guard resources to the Lone Star state to try to reinforce lines abandoned by the U.S. government.

Students have been displaced from a New York school to make room for illegal immigrants, while American veterans languish in longer lines so the VA can process health claims for noncitizens who have tried to jump the lawful entry line to America.

A majority of Americans now say the last few years of border policy and history are the very definition of insanity, polling shows. While not a single state that touches the southern border has held its 2024 presidential primary yet, immigration has finished as the top issue of concern in exit polls of GOP primary voters in Iowa, New Hampshire, and South Carolina........more........

"Most people prefer to believe their leaders are just and fair even in the face of evidence to the contrary, because once a citizen acknowledges that the government under which they live is lying and corrupt, the citizen has to choose what he or she will do about it. To take action in the face of a corrupt government entails risks of harm to life and loved ones. To choose to do nothing is to surrender one's self-image of standing for principles. Most people do not have the courage to face that choice. Hence, most propaganda is not designed to fool the critical thinker but only to give moral cowards an excuse not to think at all." -- Michael Rivero

caitlin has some thoughts about the new york times crimes;

Imperial propaganda outlet The New York Times is currently embroiled in a massive scandal over its reporting which alleges mass rapes on October 7 — and the scandal is being fueled in part by leaks from its own staff.

In case you haven’t been following the story, back in December the Times published an article titled “‘Screams Without Words’: How Hamas Weaponized Sexual Violence on Oct. 7” which was riddled with glaring plot holes that were exposed by research from outlets like The Grayzone, Electronic Intifada, and Mondoweiss. Later it came out with the help of an anonymous Twitter account named zei_squirrel that one of the three authors of the New York Times piece — Anat Schwartz — is a genocide-supporting Israeli intelligence veteran who had never worked in journalism before, and that another author of the piece — a food writer named Adam Sella — is her partner’s nephew........more........
