Illegals

Tools To Be Used

The headline reads: “Apopka daughter asks for fair chance after parents detained, father deported.” The left uses emotion to manipulate people. It doesn’t matter if it’s a shooting, a deportation, or even attempting to quote the Bible, the left wants to use your own feelings against you.

In this case, the leftist who wrote it wants you to believe that a little girl is being deprived of her hardworking parents. The reality is different- the daughter is old enough to drink, and her parents entered the country illegally, applied for residency 20 years ago, then never showed up to their appointment. A deportation order was entered against them.

In the intervening decades, he “ran a successful business.” What they don’t mention is that the reason the business was successful is because they are illegal. The name of the business is Juarez Investments, LLC. It was operating without licenses or registration until 2021. Meaning that they likely weren’t paying taxes for nearly 20 years. If I didn’t have to pay taxes, my business could be more successful as well. They aren’t law abiding, they are tax evading freeloaders who are making the lives of people legally living here even harder in the form of lower wages and higher costs.

This pair has been flouting the law for more than 2 decades. It’s about time they are sent home to Guatemala.

Liberal Viewpoint

there are no “illegals.” That’s a word the Republikkkans use to dehumanize and demonize. People who are here without documentation, without legal permission, that’s a civil offense, not a criminal one. Crossing the border outside a checkpoint is misdemeanor trespass. They can claim asylum from anywhere in the U.S and whether you like it or not they have as much right to be here as you MAGAats do. Most of them are workers with families just like you. Once they have been there for over decades, they are protected by the statute of limitations.- Rando Lefty talking points

This ties in with my statement on Due Process. Read the clause again:

No State shall make or enforce any law which shall abridge the privileges or immunities of citizens of the United States; nor shall any State deprive any person of life, liberty, or property, without due process of law; nor deny to any person within its jurisdiction the equal protection of the laws.

So lets assume that you are right- illegally entering the country isn’t a crime. OK. What is the penalty? You get sent back to the nation that you came from. That isn’t depriving you of life, liberty, or property, so you aren’t entitled to due process.

If the government DID want to charge you with a crime, the law used would be 8 USC 1325: Improper entry by alien. The law reads:

Any alien who (1) enters or attempts to enter the United States at any time or place other than as designated by immigration officers, or (2) eludes examination or inspection by immigration officers, or (3) attempts to enter or obtains entry to the United States by a willfully false or misleading representation or the willful concealment of a material fact, shall, for the first commission of any such offense, be fined under title 18 or imprisoned not more than 6 months, or both, and, for a subsequent commission of any such offense, be fined under title 18, or imprisoned not more than 2 years, or both.

In other words, it’s a misdemeanor the first time, a felony each subsequent time.

Saying the word “asylum” isn’t a magic word that gets you a free pass. First, asylum is for fleeing your home country because your life is in danger if you stay. Second, once you have left your home country, the threat is gone, and you are done fleeing. That means you can’t pass through 8 nations on the way to the US in order to claim asylum. That’s not how it works.

Also, sneaking into the country and staying here for a decade in violation of the law doesn’t mean that you can claim asylum after being caught.

The statute of limitations don’t apply in the event of a crime that continues every day. If I were to make an illegal machine gun, but I own it for 20 years, that doesn’t mean ATF can’t charge me with it. That also isn’t how crimes work.

Peaceful Protest Season

The left is lining up to complain that Trump didn’t need to call out the National Guard for what they view as “peaceful protests.” Let’s take a look at some of those protests:

Yeah, that looks peaceful. The press claims that it is “unclear” what caused police to fire crowd control munitions into the “mostly peaceful” crowd of protesters. You have a crowd of foreign nationals, waving foreign flags while they burn and destroy property, all while being supported and shielded by California state and local officials.

“We had individuals shooting commercial-grade fireworks at our officers. That can kill you.” – LAPD Chief Jim McDonnell

Meanwhile, the President of Mexico is threatening to mobilize against the US, if the US institutes a tax on remittances from illegal immigrants to Mexico. This is a foreign invasion, and wars have begun over much less. So-called “sanctuary states” are in a state of rebellion.

Illegal Cops, or Invading Army?

New Mexico has just passed a law that allows non-citizen immigrants to be police officers. In 2024 alone, the Biden administration issued over two million new work permits to non-citizens — many of them illegal immigrants. Federal law prohibits illegal aliens from possessing firearms, which law enforcement officer must carry.

Now we have to consider that the people who will be enforcing the laws against YOU are themselves criminals who are flouting the law.

A few times in the past, I have told you that more and more states and localities are hiring immigrants to be police officers, and in some cases they are hiring illegal immigrants. This is right out of the CIA insurgency manual, which has been followed by the left since at least 2019. The plan is to make people distrust the government so that they can replace it with their own, alternative, government. You know, the alternative that they have created.

Keep in mind that the Governor of New Mexico, Grisham, previously suspended Second Amendment rights in the state. In 2023, she issued an executive order banning citizens from carrying guns in Albuquerque. The executive order expired in 2024, but picture a person here in violation of the law, carrying a gun in violation of the law, telling you that you are under arrest for having a gun because some politician said so.

Each of us as Americans will have to decide at what point we have been overrun. At what point do we consider a group of uniformed, armed, illegal invaders to be an occupying army? When does the real resistance begin?

Trust me, my resistance won’t consist of sitting in the road blocking traffic or gluing my hand to a painting.

Due Process

There are a lot of Democrats running around and bleating about the Constitutional right to due process and illegal immigrants. Where does the right to due process appear in the Constitution? The Fifth Amendment:

No person shall be held to answer for a capital, or otherwise infamous crime, unless on a presentment or indictment of a Grand Jury, except in cases arising in the land or naval forces, or in the Militia, when in actual service in time of War or public danger; nor shall any person be subject for the same offence to be twice put in jeopardy of life or limb; nor shall be compelled in any criminal case to be a witness against himself, nor be deprived of life, liberty, or property, without due process of law; nor shall private property be taken for public use, without just compensation.

Kilmar Abrego Garcia is an illegal immigrant who was deported to El Salvador and is being held there in prison. A federal judge has ordered the Trump administration to “facilitate” Abrego Garcia’s release, an order affirmed by the Supreme Court, and to provide evidence of the actions it has taken to get him back.

Here is the problem with that- the Supreme Court doesn’t have the authority or the jurisdiction to order that. He is a foreign citizen who is in prison in his home country. The US government in general, and the US Supreme Court in particular, doesn’t have the authority to order the Salvadoran government to do a thing.

It doesn’t matter whether or not he is a gang member, an illegal, or a criminal in the US. The Supreme court cannot order the executive to invade another country, it just isn’t within the SCOTUS’ enumerated powers. The rest of the argument is moot.

Still, I will list the reasons why he wasn’t entitled to due process during deportation. Refer to the Fifth Amendment.

  • He isn’t being held by the US to answer for a capital, or otherwise infamous crime,
  • He isn’t subject in jeopardy of life or limb twice for the same offense,
  • nor is he being compelled to be a witness against himself,
  • nor did the US government deprive him of life, liberty, or property, all they did was return him to his home country.

According to court filings, Kilmar Abrego Garcia was born in July 1995 in the neighborhood of Los Nogales in El Salvador, where he helped his family run a business making pupusas, a local cuisine.

He crossed the border illegally near McAllen, Texas, in March 2012 when he was 16 years old. From the border, Abrego Garcia made his way to Maryland to live with his brother. The Trump administration sent him back to his home country. No due process was required, because the Fifth Amendment doesn’t say he is entitled to it.

Pull the Other One

We are constantly told by the left that noncitizens can’t vote, and instances of them doing so are ‘vanishingly rare’. Claiming otherwise gets you a ‘fact check’ where your statement is ‘debunked’.

If that is the case, then why would anyone oppose an executive order that enforces current voting laws by ordering the government to crack down on illegal immigrants who vote? Yet, that is exactly what a lawsuit filed by the DNC is all about. Why file a lawsuit against a law that would prevent people from doing what you already claim they aren’t doing?

Get Out of Boston

At about 1730 on Saturday evening, a knife wielding man was chasing people while being armed with a knife. The people being chased ran into a Chick Fil A. It so happens than an off duty Boston cop was eating dinner inside at the time. He identified himself and told the assailant to drop the knife. Instead of doing so, he charged the cop and stabbed him. (Tueller drill?) The cop shot his attacker, who was pronounced dead at a local hospital.

All told, it appears to be a good and righteous shoot by one of the few people in Boston who can legally carry a firearm. That would normally be the end of the story, and may or may not earn a blog post here. Except the mayor and police commissioner got involved.

They offered condolences. To the dead attacker and his family.

This is the same mayor that  in late 2023 after hosting a ‘no whites’ Christmas party for ‘electeds of color’ and has vowed to resist Trump and ICE when they attempt to deport illegals. Note that no one is publicly identifying the attacker. I wonder why.
