Pelosi Takes A Radical Open Borders Position

Screenshot via Youtube

Nancy Pelosi has finally admitted what the Democrat Party stands for: open borders with no immigration enforcement. The Daily Caller reports:

House Speaker Nancy Pelosi said Thursday that it should not be a crime for immigrants to overstay their visas or violate their immigration status.

Pelosi’s comments echo those made at Wednesday’s Democratic debate by former Housing and Urban Development Secretary Julian Castro and highlight the Democratic Party’s rapid shift in favor of open border policies.

“It shouldn’t be a crime to have a status violation. If somebody commits a crime or is guilty of a crime … prosecutorial discretion would warrant that they, or justified that they be sent away,” Pelosi told reporters at her weekly press conference. 

Pelosi was fielding questions about a father and his daughter who were photographed after drowning in the Rio Grande while trying to cross into the U.S. from Mexico. The father reportedly attempted to cross the river after growing frustrated while his family waited to apply for asylum at a port of entry near Brownsville, Texas.

America is a nation of laws and order, and wholesale neglect in enforcing immigration laws would be a betrayal of the ideals of the Founding and an insult to the millions of immigrants that have legally come to America through its history.

Democrats do not care about what is best for American citizens period or they would not be for open borders. They want illegals to build their representation for seats and power. Sadly today the SCOTUS blocked the question of citizenship on the census, not a good thing for our country. We need to know who is here and are they here legally

Now the article is partly right but of course no one on this site wold want to know the true facts, but what Pelosi said was the sentiments of over 70% of the population. How can anyone here call them selves Christians and want another human being treated like the illegals are being treated in cages at the border, worse thn most people would treat an enimal and if you packed that many animals in a cage not designed for that many animals you would be arrested, and that is exactly what they should do to the people who are doing it. In every sense of the word it is CRIMINAL to treat other humans like the illegals are being treated. Why does some not put them selves in the illegals place and see what they would do.
Now the article said the man was going back to his homeland and that is different from what his wife said on National Television according to the wire service, she said the her husband had swam across with the little girl and was coming back to take her across when the little girl tried to follow him and came into the water, which took them both away while he was trying to save his daughter and his wife watched from the shore not able to do anything.

Robert, what is it about the word ILLEGAL that is so hard for you people to comprehend? Not to mention, those who do cross the border ILLEGALLY and are detained, are treated quite well considering that they are flooding here by the tens of thousands. Stop believing the propaganda the leftoid media is shoveling at you. Seek FACTS.

Illegally crossing the boarder is only part of the problem. We the American Tax Payers are paying them for crossing those boarders. A 2017 study by the Federation for American Immigration Reform (FAIR) found that illegal aliens cost the American taxpayer — on net — $116 billion a year. In Europe you are free to cross any boarder but in doing so this does not make you eligible for anything. You cannot go to the hospital and get treated for free. You cannot go to the government and get free food, housing or anything else for that matter. So the Democrats/Leftists/Liberals/Socialists claim that these Criminals do not collect Social Security or welfare, but to do so all you need is a Social Security Number which can be purchased on the streets in California for a $100.00 maybe more when you take in account inflation. These people know that they will not be prosecuted or even looked for once they cross the boarder, they know that America will not let them or their children starve and so we pay and pay and pay. If you cut off the money you will cut off the Illegal Immigration. We are getting Screwed and Paying for the Privilege.

90% of the Illegal Aliens, who have entered the US Illegally< are criminals. We do not want them here to corrupt our Great America. It doesn't mean that we are not Christians for not wanting them here. It's just like WAR we kill the other side because we don't want them to come to the US. It is the same. The Democrats want open borders so they can get more votes for them – they don't care about their welfare…..

Nancy does not make the laws for the United States. the co9nstitution stipulates that Both the House and the Senate agree on a subject and pass it. Then the President must sign it or veto it or within so many days it will become a law. Again NANCY or SCHUMER do NOT MAKE THE LAWS.

I wonder, if Peloser and her familia did not have the means to have constant protection from the illegal invader element that regular folk DO NOT have protection from, would she still be so anxious to allow them to invade OUR Republic? I am not joking, I really do wonder about that. She and her cronies remind me of the elitist pukes in “The Purge”.

Democrats are now supporting free entrance into the US for every criminal and terrorist who shows up. Is Pelosi willing to take responsibility for the Americans who will die and be damaged by this influx of America’s enemies? Democrats have gone crazy with their extreme leftist policies.

Democrats definitely again have plans to use illegal immigrants to win the election. In previous presidential elections Obama invited and encouraged illegal immigrants to vote by giving them immunity from the law. Perhaps now, in the democratically controlled states, the same thing will happen, the democrats assuring illegal immigrants of protection , that are possible after the elections are won ! Investigating fraud during the election takes time and when it is found that 5 million illegal immigrants or no citizens voted will be too late ! The president is already at the White House !! WARNING !
