Keep sighing. How many kids does the average American couple have? Enough to replace all those “Boomers” (I’m most definitely NOT one btw)? I’ll save you the the trouble of googling: NO. If we want to continue to have a viable economy, we need immigrants. Lots of ‘em. Perhaps you prefer we take the lazy, ones instead of young, hardworking people? Or perhaps you just can’t see past your own generation’s potential success and prefer to leave the hard issues like demographics to your kids and grandkids? And before anyone else gets all up in a huff about who gets to come here, go back and read my original response to CH. I am NOT advocating for unabated illegal immigration or open borders. 

I don’t know of a single acquaintance I have, that’s a republican, that is against legal immigration of those deserving (key word - deserving, immigration is a privilege, not a right). When the VPOTUS, who was placed in charge of cleaning up the border mess that her besties created, openly admits the border is fine when thousands of illegal immigrants are pouring into our border with drugs, illegal prostitution and creating and open pathway for unabated terrorism entering our country, we have a big problem. 
 

Let’s see if the tone changes as Abbott and DeSantis continue to bus migrants to democratic strongholds.  I don’t think the Obamas will be too happy about a bunch of migrants taking a squat in their beloved Martha’s Vineyard. Let’s see how “tolerant” the elites on the left are.

I'm all for legal immigration. I'm not for a border so porous that everyone who wants into the US knows they should go to Mexico and cross from there.

how people don't see this is mind blowing.

if you provide a pathway for illegal citizens to become citizens without a secure border...more will come. it's common sense.

the democratic party understands this actually. they just don't say the quiet part out loud. those illegal citizens become votes.

I wonder if they'll start securing the border when they realize how pro-life and anti-trans the Hispanic community tends to be

They are too arrogant to realize this and just assume everyone agrees with them.  It's mind boggling.  Don't tell them though.  Let karma do it's thing.  How many die hard Roman Catholics do you know that approve of abortion?   It's comical.

Disagree. I think the only way is for both at once, that way both sides get a “win”. Dems get the “pathway” & Republicans get border security. 

When securing the border/stopping illegal immigration is considered a political “win” then that means the other side (progressives) doesn’t want it.  Hence why we don’t have a secure border.

But this isn’t shocking when the left calls those others (who want to secure the border/deport illegal aliens) racists, fascists, whatever-phobic…

[bfargin]

The big problem is we don't head off the problem before it's a problem. We've done at least 2 rounds of amnesty since I've been old enough to remember them. So here we go again, wait until we have millions of illegals here again, and then deal out another amnesty which only makes more people realize if they can illegally gain entry, the US will eventually let them stay.

 

Another issue is the whole anchor baby thing ... thats not constitutional and wasn't what was intended.

 At the same time, I’d rather be confronted with these issues vs. radicals storming the Capitol. YMMV. 

I certainly agree Jan 6th was a horrible day for America, but Democrats stood by (and in some cases cheered), as Left Wing radicals burned American cities and stormed U.S. buildings.

Absolutely, yes. Violence is bad. An attack on our seat of power BY a sitting president? Objectively worse. 

Just because you repeat the narrative that doesn't make it true.  If you want to talk about him challenging the election please be equally damning in going after democrats who did the same thing - Clinton Won't Rule Out Questioning 2016 Election, But Says No Clear Means To Do So

Sadly I sense some TDS, this is not about Trump...I don't like him and I want him to go away, but the radical left under crazy Uncle Joe has been empowered to do a LOT of damage to this country.

You can try to over complicate the immigration argument but it is a simple fact, with effort on the border and things like the remain in Mexico policy FAR fewer were crossing our borders illegally...many were deterred from even trying. 

Are there several factors that need to be adjudicated, of course, but this wide open bullshit is bringing havoc.  I am usually a rule of law kind of guy so sorry this path to citizen ship for 11 million that came here ILLEGALLY is complete bullshit.  I favor a path for the dreamers, they were kids and had no choice in the matter, this country is all they've ever know but the adults that BROKE THE LAW, hell no, get OUT!  Granting them citizenship is a giant FU to the MILLIONS of people standing in line trying to come here LEGALLY.  We are a country of law...why is that so difficult? 

Do we need legal immigration, absolutely...we need workers (skilled and unskilled), and as you point out the demographics of the boomer generation points to serious issues if we don't make adjustments.  That being said and acknowledged lets do it legally, with background checks and a secure border that at least slows the most wanted terrorists and tons of illegal drugs that are flowing across the border and into our country.  I believe the last number I saw said we allow about one million folks each year to LEGALLY emigrate the U.S., if that number needs to be increased, let look at it and do what makes sense for our country. 

It is ironic that the liberal mayors of these so called sanctuary cities are screaming for help with Texas sending them illegals.  These nitwits get a small taste of what they have done to Arizona and Texas and they cry like little bitches.  NYC cried uncle after 2,000 arrived over a month when Texas is seeing 7,000-8000 EACH DAY!  The ultimate buffoon is Lori Lightfoot who then put them on a bus out of her so called sanctuary city.

Why has fact-checking disappeared under Biden? | The Hill

Quote

Overall, since taking over for Jen Psaki on May 13, Jean-Pierre has not been fact-checked at all by Factcheck.org, the Associated Press, Reuters, Washington Post or CNN. 

But of course, the Biden administration never lies. The border is secure, inflation is under control, food prices aren't rising, and Afghanistan was the greatest airlift in history.

Just imagine if any non-Democrat was acting like this as President, how many news broadcasts, discussion panels, and late night comedy shows this would be on, discussing said President’s fitness to serve.

Perfectly normal. Absolutely.

The liberals simply don't care.  The country is being run by a demented shell of a man, I pray he doesn't hit the nuke button reaching for his Life Alert.  As long as they got rid of the Orange Man.  Truly criminal that his wife and staff are allowing this to continue.

Sorry, couldn't resist.  Here's a complimentary gaff from our VP.  Wait, is it a Republic or Peoples Republic?

Actually, it's Democratic People's Republic of Korea (DPRK). You can't be one-party, Stalinist dictatorship with a name like that, right?

Ole Kamala letting us know where we stand as Americans in a crisis after she said the administration would take "equity" into account when dividing up disaster relief as Hurricane Ian rips up the eastern coastline.

"We have to address this in a way that is about giving resources based on equity, understanding that we fight for equality, but we also need to fight for equity."

Not to be outdone Uncle Joe says "A vital part of preparing fur Hurricane Season is to "get vaccinated now."
