DHS Prepared to Support Importing 500,000 Illegals Per Month As The Puppet Show Steals Whats Left Of Your Children's Future
[ConservativeTreehouse] Skipping past the discussion of the DHS “disinformation board,”….. While appearing on an ironically named CNN broadcast “The State of Our Union”, Homeland Security Secretary Alejandro Mayorkas tells John King’s ex-wife, that for several months DHS has been preparing to start handling and processing 18,000 illegal aliens per day (540,000/mo) as soon as CDC Title 42 is lifted.

If DHS estimates are accurate, between now and the November mid-term election, DHS will import an additional 3,000,000 illegal aliens from various nations around the world, through the U.S-Mexico border.

Cumulatively, this arrival estimate will put the number of illegal aliens arriving in the United States during Joe Biden’s first two years in office somewhere north of 10 million people. For scale, that’s an imported group of illegal aliens three times the size of the population of Mississippi. WATCH:

If his own estimates are correct, in combination with prior arrivals, the aggregate number of illegal aliens will easily exceed 50 million by the end of the year; more than twice the population of Pennsylvania and Ohio combined. Illegal aliens living in the U.S. will exceed 15% of the total population.

Approximately one-third of the United States workforce will be illegal aliens.

What do you think that scale of illegal labor does to wages?

#3 
Many estimates state that the tax burden is approximately $8,075 per illegal member per year.

Just think if that money was used to help
US Citizens instead.

#4  We have been massively betrayed by these Washington D.C. vermin.
Posted by: Besoeker || 05/02/2022 7:08 Comments || Top||

#5  DHS has a budget to protect us. If they have a budget to facilitate onboarding 3 million people entering our country illegally, who approved that budget? There is no department of our government in charge of facilitating our invasion.
Posted by: Super Hose || 05/02/2022 9:29 Comments || Top||

#6  Going forward, charge ALL the imports costs to the DHS budget. But don't increase it to match.

#1  Good find, DV.

#2  I love the idea of a lot of ageing US pols wondering what happened when their chinese retirement plans go insolvent. I really do think that's going to happen with fall-of-the-soviet-union unexpected rapidity.

Really hope to live to see it with my own eyes.
