More About: Politics: General ActivismWhy Doesn't Congress Work for US?
This headline piqued my attention yesterday: "Almost 200 House Dems vote against deporting people who commit welfare fraud." Journalist Adam Pack. Representative Dave Taylor's Deporting Fraudsters Act passes despite Democratic opposition.
How in the daylights could a single House Member vote against American taxpayers on something so logical, reasonable and common sensical? You gotta' scratch your head trying to figure out what those people are doing in Washington DC. It proves the adage, "When it comes to race and politics…there is no rhyme or reason or practicality."
Some sanity manifests by some members: "If you admit to or you're convicted of fraudulently receiving public benefits, you are out of here on the next plane and can never return," Rep. Tom McClintock, (R-CA)
It astounds any American with common sense as to how our DC legislators ever accomplish anything that benefits the American people. Time after time, they fail us on multiple levels. Common sense? Where do you see it in the congressional hearings? Instead, bickering, back-biting, and inane arguments.
Democrats also sharply criticized the measure for eroding legal immigrants' due process rights by permitting noncitizens to be deported prior to prosecutors securing a conviction.
"By bypassing the conviction requirement, this legislation would hand a liberal get-out-of-jail free card to immigrants who commit fraud by deporting them without going through the criminal justice system and giving their victims a day in court," House Member Raskin (D-MD) said.
With our country awash in $38 trillion national debt, taxpayers have to wonder why DC swamp rats keep undermining the deportation process. Why do half those people in Congress support open borders that are killing American citizens not only physically, but in our wallets. House Republicans have also spotlighted reporting from independent journalist Nick Shirley, who has probed alleged daycare fraud in Minnesota and California.
"We have already seen why action is needed," Rep. Claudia Tenney, (R-NY), said Tuesday during a House GOP leadership news conference. "Independent journalist Nick Shirley helped expose a massive fraud scheme, showing how organized and widespread these scams can become even when oversight fails."
Don't you find it ever more irritating that House Minority Leader Hakeem Jeffries complains about everything, but does nothing to change it for the better. He sat on his hands as House majority leader while 15 million illegal aliens tromped across our borders. He did nothing as those 15 million illegals were flown into cities across America. He did nothing while they were given food, hotels, medical care and stole jobs from Americans. Who does Hakeem Jeffries represent?
Answer: not Americans.

Scalise accuses Democrats of reviving 'defund the police' push with DHS funding gambit. The DHS shutdown has dragged on for over a month.
After four weeks of DHS non-funding, how can Congressional members continue to squabble and back-stab each other while TSA agents haven't been paid for the past month? How can they argue when the people who protect this country aren't getting paid? Why would they put us all in danger? Let's face it, Biden's open borders invited countless Islamic sleeper-cell fanatics who could blow up buildings, or just kill any of us at any instant…such as the Muslims who have carried out their killings sprees in the past month.
"A senior House GOP leader is accusing Democrats of reviving their controversial push to "defund the police" with their latest bid to circumvent funding for law enforcement under the Department of Homeland Security (DHS)." House Majority Leader Steve Scalise, R-La., called the progressive slogan "one of the dumbest ideas in the history of politics."
"The American people lambasted them, and they moved on for a little while, but they came back to it, and they're trying it again," Scalise said. "We're not going to let them do it. And by the way, we're at a heightened level of threat — this is when everybody should be coming together and making sure that the Department of Homeland Security has all the tools they need to keep Americans safe."
Democratic leaders announced on Wednesday that they would move to force a vote on legislation to fund all of DHS except for agencies that aid in Trump's crackdown on illegal immigration.
How does that make any sense? Trump got elected BECAUSE of Biden's allowing 15 million illegal aliens into America. Look at all the chaos they have caused, the deaths, the rapes, the crime, and fraud.
"We can fund the Transportation Security Administration, fund the Coast Guard, fund our cybersecurity professionals or continue to allow ICE to brutalize and in some cases kill American citizens or to violently target law-abiding immigrant families," Jeffries told reporters.
Except there are 25 million illegal "law-abiding immigrant families" that did not obey our laws when they jumped our borders. We're either a nation with borders, or we're a destination for lawlessness. They are not "immigrants", they are border invaders who can lawfully be deported 24/7. That's what I.C.E. is all about…deporting unlawful refugees back to their own countries.
"Customs and Border Protection plays an irreplaceable role in our national security framework. This is not a game. Our CBP agents stand on the front lines. They protect our nation against transnational crime, drug and child trafficking, and terrorist threats before they reach our communities," House Speaker Mike Johnson (R-LA) said.
Do any of us want another 9/11? Do we want two Muslim kids in NYC tossing I.E.D.'s at Americans? Do we want that illegal Afghanistan refugee shooting two National Guard troops in DC? Do you want to be the father or mother of Laken Riley, Rachel Morin (mother of five), Jocelyn Nungaray, or Kate Steinle? Do you want your school overrun with kids from 50 different countries and 50 different languages? Do you want your tax dollars paid out to millions of illegals in "Sanctuary Cities" for food, hotels and transportation?
We, the American people, have got to hold those scoundrels in DC to accountability. Call your U.S. Senators today to give them a piece of your mind. I email and call mine each week. Again, we need a total shutdown of all legal and illegal immigration. And, we must ban Sharia Law and Islam out of our country. They are not here to become Americans.
One last note: our country stands at 340 million in 2026. By 2060, mass immigration will cause us to jump to 414 million people. (Source: Pew Research Center) Our airports are already trampled to death with crowds. There will be tens of thousands of added planes flying in the air by 2060. It's 104 degrees in CA, AZ and TX already. When it comes to human population, EVERYTHING worsens with added numbers. Do you want that? Can we solve our problems by adding 74 million more people by 2060? Should I write about it to inform you as to what the future holds for America?
