Team Biden knows its open-borders plan is unpopular — so why do it?
How else are they to replace masses of current voters with ones better suited for their purpose?
[NYPOST] "BIDEN," say the young demonstrators’ T-shirts, imitating his campaign logo, "PLEASE LET US IN!" What a waste of T-shirt money: For President Biden seems determined to let in as many immigrants colonists as want to come.

The numbers are daunting. About 80,000 people tried to cross the southern border this January, double the number in January 2020. That number could easily balloon this spring, traditionally the peak migration season, with fewer COVID-19 restrictions in place.

And with less cooperation from Mexico. The 2019 illegal surge was quashed by the protocol to which then-President Donald Trump

got Mexican President Andrés Manuel López Obrador to agree. AMLO kept Central American would-be migrants colonists inside Mexico, which reduced attempted border crossings and stifled the coyotes’ business model.

Biden could have preserved that arrangement through at least September 2024. Instead, he rescinded the agreement by executive order and scrapped the program.

One predictable result: a sudden spike of what Democrats during the Trump presidency referred to as "children in cages." As David Harsanyi explains in National Review, migrant children are being kept in detention facilities built by former President Barack Obama

’s administration partly for children whose parents or guardians were detained after entering the country illegally and making (usually baseless) claims for asylum. Liberals bellowed when the "cages" held 2,000 minors in the Trump years. Now, under Biden, they hold more than 3,200.

In time, perhaps quickly, those held will be released and sent to purported relatives in the United States, often permanently, since many don’t show up to asylum hearings. Many are infected with the coronavirus (aka COVID19 or Chinese Plague)

Biden may have called Texas Gov. Greg Abbott

’s decision to end a statewide mask mandate "Neanderthal thinking," but Team Biden is apparently happy to send infectious illegal immigrants colonists all around the country. That’s reminiscent of how the Democrats most insistent on masks and lockdowns approved of mass demonstrations by "mostly peaceful" (often-violent mostly peaceful) Black Lives Matter supporters last year. The implication is that law-abiding citizens are less deserving of indulgence than angry demonstrators and illegal immigrants colonists.

While Trump was questioned and mocked about his immigration policies, so far, the Biden administration has gotten away with just waving aside questions. Biden — who, unlike his predecessors by this time of their presidencies, hasn’t held a news conference yet — simply ignored a shouted question about the "crisis" on the southern border at an event in a northeast Washington hardware store.

Asked about the tripling of migrant children detained at the border, White House Press Secretary Jen Psaki
...a valley girl who woke up one morning and found she was spokeswoman for the U.S. Department of State under Obama...
referred questions to the Department of Homeland Security, which wasn’t answering questions, either. "Ask them again," she said. "It’s not our program."

As for DHS, Secretary Alejandro Mayorkas reportedly said the surge of illegals is "overwhelming" and called for volunteers from the department to help at the border. But he doesn’t want to staunch the flow permanently. "We are not saying, ’Don’t come,'" he said last week. "We are saying, ’Don’t come now,’ because we will be able to deliver a safe and orderly process to them as quickly as possible."

#1 If they can stuff counterfeit ballots then why care about real voters?

#2 Population replacement.

They see the voters barely as people and for sure not as peers, not even the ones who do vote for them. We're just a means to their ends, a mass to be controlled to gain them what they want at the time, and at this point, they don't even feel like they have to lie to us anymore. They can be blatant about the fact they don't care, because they believe they have all of the power. We are simply a commodity to be either controlled and used, or done away with if we aren't on board with furthering their goals and agendas. And I think that's why they are afraid, because they know there are those of us waking up and starting to see it. And that we don't like it.

#3 look to what the masters of the Left want: it is 8 years down the road when these all get amnesty and start voting. Unpopular now2, but if you are playing the long game to topple the US and retain power for the left at all costs, taking political heat now that pays off big time in a few years is what seems acceptable to them.

I notice nobody in the GOP seems to care about anything beyond the latest shiny threat, and nobody seems to be planning long term for conservatism. The time to set up to defeat these RINOs in congress was 4 years ago. The time to go after the crooked Dems was 4 years ago - instead of hiring them into the Administration, trump should have been cleaning the house. They should already have challengers ready to go after Murkowski in Alaska. Same for Sasse in Nebraska. Should be laying groundwork now for Arizona. And there should already be vetting and setting up for a replacement for Graham in SC, Cornyn in Texas (and maybe Cruz since he has been weak lately - lots of twitter but not much real results).

Keep staying short-sighted when they are playing the long game will eventually destroy the Conservatives and libertarians, and end up with a country run by fascist elites and their government cronies.

#4 All politicians plan for is their own careers. The age of the "statesman" is long past. The last people we want making choices about how the country is run are political consultants.

#5 The boot lickers and 'Coutiers of power.'

Like the nobles assembled under the king's roof at Versailles, official Washington divides the known world into only two parts. First there is Washington, and then there is every place else. The planes arriving and departing National Airport cross the only frontier of any consequence - the one between the inside and the outside - and all the truly momentous topics of conversation center on one question, which is always and unfailingly the same: Who's in and who's out?

~ Lews H. Lapham 'The Wish for Kings' Chapter 3, Versailles on the Potomac, page 77. Published in Canada by General Publishing Company LTD, 1993.

However, I doubt that they'll be voting for non-"Hispanic" politicians.

#10 Also see the Dems' immigration and racemongering playbook, The Emerging Democratic Majority by Ruy Texeira.

They're so blatant about their goals -- because GOPpers are moronic wimps, and also because the strategy worked beautifully to turn a two-party, competitive state into one-party Mexifornia.

Republicans cannot have a prayer at winning national elections again until they go hard against illegal immigration.

That issue far more than any other explains Trump's rise. Had he stuck to that issue and made lasting changes to our insane immigration policy, Trump would still be POTUS today.
