It's always been a falacy. There are no jobs that Americans won't do for a fair wage and for those they won't do for a living such as crop picking we have unlimited visas for them.

Yep all the way up till the last few decades they were doing all the jobs. They were simply displaced and replaced by illegals and immigrants.

Well the top Dems did about 10 years ago with Pelosi, Hillary and even Obama making speeches about the threats and dangers of illegal immigration.

Trump dared to talk about the problem and he tried to actually do something about it and the Dems demonized him for it. Maybe if he had come out on favor of an open border like Biden is we would have had massive support for a 1000 mile wall 30 feet high?



Biden is doing a lot of stupid things that defy common sense like shutting down the pipeline, pledging Billions to foreign countries, pledging 1 million covid shots to the world while so many still wait for it here, gun control measures that will violate Rights and of course flooding the country his catch and release of illegal aliens.



We should all be fearful of Bidens schemes and more so of the people that are pulling the strings.
The dems in this regard are pretty much like the old cat lady on the corner. There is always room for another one because they are adorable. The house is ripped apart, reeks of urine and old newspapers, is basically unfit to live in but there is always room for another kitten.

Anybody who suggests there is anything wrong with that is pure evil because we all love kittens or we should.

In this case the cats are also making demands, and the cat lady’s landlord is charging others more rent to subsidize the cat lady.

Whenever I think of the Dems policy and see it in action it's like this cartoon:

Good! Make them feel unwelcome and unwanted so they can go back home. Personally I refuse to hire any company that uses them and if any contractor brings a group that appears to be illegal I am going to check their papers. Let them prove their not! If they don't like it, screw it. There are plenty of other companies around. I'll use them.

I can't stand this appeasing to the illegals. I spent a lot of money and time bringing my wife here. And my mom went through a vetting process to LEGALLY immigrate from Norway in the 50's!
