Illegals In The United States

- + + Think about this. American citizens will be voting this week. We assume the people voting are indeed citizens of this country.
Those who are elected play an important role in the future of the government and the country.
But do we really know that those voters are citizens? There is ongoing controversy about proving citizenship to vote and there are locations where enforcement of citizenship is lax, to say the least.
I raise this question because of the shocking number of illegal aliens who have gotten into the United States just during the presidency of Joseph Biden.
According to the Federation for American Immigration Reform report, the total number of illegals who entered this country or were otherwise inadmissible at the border since President Biden took office is 5.5 million!
The report went on to estimate that roughly 2.4 million got into the country undetected or were deliberately released into the country. That is a number larger than the total populations of 15 American states.
The report by FAIR, and detailed on Breitbart, says that border agents also encountered 98 known terrorists in fiscal year 2022. That number doesn’t include terrorists who may be imbedded in the 1.1 million who evaded law enforcement when they entered the country.
These numbers may raise eyebrows when it is realized that in 2021, only 15 known terrorists were encountered, 3 in 2020 and in 2019, none.
The increase should raise alerts in our security as terrorists hiding among the illegal population would present an enormous threat to the country. At this point, the president hasn’t addressed this issue directly to our population telling us what he is doing about it — if anything.
Speaking of threats to the country, we are now in the midst of an “epidemic” of fentanyl — the street drug that is so deadly that just a few grains can, and will, kill.
The FAIR report goes on to detail the fentanyl situation. It isn’t pretty. More fentanyl has crossed the border in the last two months of the Biden administration than did in the entire fiscal year of 2019 during the Trump administration.
Keep in mind, the drug didn’t cross the border on its own — it was manufactured in China and carried across by illegal aliens, some members of drug cartels but none of them U.S. citizens. But U.S. citizens are the victims of this drug — deaths from fentanyl in the United States are soaring and it’s getting to be a rare family that hasn’t experienced a death from the drug. It is the leading cause of death of Americans 18-45 — more deadly than COVID.
According to Anne Milgram, DEA administrator, “Fentanyl is the single deadliest drug threat our nation has ever encountered.”
Think about that and then consider your thoughts about illegal aliens coming into this country.
Last month alone, it’s reported more than 414 million lethal doses of fentanyl were seized. The FAIR Report goes on to show that over a billion lethal doses of fentanyl have been seized at the border during fiscal year 2022.
The president of FAIR is Dan Stein and he minced no words about this situation. “These record-breaking numbers are a direct consequence of open-borders policies implemented by Homeland Security Secretary Alejandro Mayorkas and the person who appointed him, President Joe Biden.”
He went on to say, “This deliberate sabotage of our nation’s immigration laws demands that the president remove Mayorkas from his position immediately. Otherwise, the impeachment of this disgraced cabinet member is sure to be one of the first orders of business in the next Congress.”
While the drug issue continues, the Biden administration ordered the feds to close gaps in the Arizona border wall — but then, nothing was done.
Because of that, the state put up temporary barriers which did what they were intended to do — reduce the number of illegals crossing the border.
Despite that, the feds then ordered the state to remove those temporary barriers it put on the border in the Yuma Sector. Arizona defied that order and filed a lawsuit against the administration. Gov. Ducey said that “they are taking the step to protest on behalf of its citizens — pushing back against efforts by federal bureaucrats to reverse the progress we’ve made.”
Ducey added, “The safety and security of Arizona and its citizens must not be ignored. Arizona is going to do the job that Joe Biden refuses to do — secure the border in any way we can. We’re not backing down.”
Arizona has a legitimate concern — during fiscal year ’22, Yuma Sector Border Patrol agents apprehended more than 310,000 illegals crossing the border there, up over 171 percent from the prior year.
But the administration is not doing “nothing.”
From February 2021 to August 2022, President Biden has released nearly 1.35 million border crossers and illegal aliens into the U.S. interior — but not before they got their shots!
Since the end of September, more than 24,000 illegals have received the flu shot — administering an average of 1,000 flu shots per day.
In addition, more than 173,000 border crossers, which includes some 20,000 children, have received the COVID vaccination.
After they get the shots and any other medical treatment deemed necessary, they are transported to various location within the interior of the country — all paid for by American taxpayers.
And keep in mind, none of these people are here legally.
Do any of them vote once they get to their final destination?
Does anyone care?
