Mayorkas Doubles Down, Says ‘We Need’
More Migrants Amid Border Debate, Impeachment Fight

Original Article

President Joe Biden’s border chief says Americans need more migrants to fill jobs — even as House legislators debate his possible impeachment and the Senate considers a legislative deal he helped broker. Mayorkas made his demand for a high-migration, low-productivity economy during a softball interview with the New York Times: Wouldn’t it be more orderly, and wouldn’t it be responsible governance to be able to deliver a lawful pathway to fill what we have, which is a labor need, and cut the exploitative smugglers out and give individuals a path to arrive lawfully, safely, in an orderly way, to perform labor that we need?

Jobs? You mean, robbing, stealing, beating up people, selling drugs, making anchor babies, looting stores and resealing the merchandise? These guys aren't here to pick cauliflower. Are there really that many toilets to clean and yards to mow? I just want to slap his face whenever I see him.

The 'migrants' we need have a means of coming in legally through our immigration laws. Democrats are looking for insurrection. This is it.

Interesting, they are using this uncontrolled border chaos as their immigration vehicle? No one is saying we don't need, or want, more immigrants. The difference, most people want it to be legal and through the front door. Trump said as much back when he had his round table discussion where he was requesting $5 billion to finish building the wall/barrier/fence so the border patrol could process the people coming through the designated Ports of Entry. Democrats decided they wanted a political issue they felt would hurt Republicans in the election(s) instead.

If we need more migrants, define the need and lets work within the laws to bring desired migrants to the US. The free for all approach is worthy of impeachment.

Everyone should know that the Immigration and Nationality Act (INA) that was passed into law by Congress and is the US basic immigration law allows more than a million and a half legal immigrants to enter the USA lawfully each year. Almost all of those legal immigrants after entry to the country obtain employment in some US job. Obviously Mayorkas and the leftist and socialist Democrats do not want the American public to know that, and instead talk like if the unlimited numbers of poor and uneducated Third World origin illegal aliens, who the leftist and socialist Democrats have been allowing into the USA in unlimited numbers is the only way that foreign workers can get into the USA which is false. US employers can always petition for qualified foreign workers to legally come to the USA and that includes foreign agricultural workers in large numbers. The reason that Biden, Mayorkas and the leftist and socialist Democrats support unlimited mass uncontrolled illegal immigration is that they plan to grant the entire illegal alien population a series of Democrat designed “path to citizenship” amnesties to transform those Third World origin illegal aliens, who they consider to be all members of minority groups, into future leftist and socialist Democrat supporters and voters in the years ahead in numbers enough to permanently change the ethnic and racial population demographics of the USA to the point in the future that the USA has a majority-minority population that the leftist and socialist Democrats believe will be very supportive of the leftist and socialist Democrat political agenda, will keep the leftist and socialist Democrats in permanent political power controlling the politics of the country and able to transform the USA into a socialist utopia. Common sense will tell you that the leftist and socialist Democrats would not be supporting Biden’s “open borders” schemes that violate the immigration laws if they ever thought that more than a very small percentage of the illegal alien population would become conservative Republican supporters and voters.

It is interesting that Mayorkas, as a young person, escaped with his parents and siblings from Communist Cuba to come to live in the United States of America, and as a naturalized citizen, became free to take advantage of all the rights and freedoms that come with U.S. citizenship. Yet, he has no problem at all allowing unvetted people walk across our southern bordor into our country. Does he want people entering our country without any knowlege of their background or beliefs? Secretary Mayorkas is a well-educated man so I cannot understand how he wouldn't be the first person to be appalled that his adopted country is being overrun by people who have no desire to follow the rule of law of our country.

Former President Donald Trump issued an all-caps message praising King Charles after his shock cancer diagnosis, sending prayers for a speedy recovery to someone he 'got to know well.'

One of the hallmarks of Joe Biden's speeches is the constant misleading or outright false remarks about the economy. I don't think the American people are buying it, given his approval on the economy is usually his lowest number in the polls. Either that or the number of people who think he's mentally capable. Those tend to be low in virtually every poll. But among his common claims are that he created "15 million brand new jobs." That is nonsense, it's such a huge number because it's people returning from the economy being locked down, not "brand new jobs." It has nothing at all to do with Joe Biden or
