Acts 17:26 “And He has made from one blood every nation of men to dwell on all the face of the earth, and has determined their preappointed times and the boundaries of their dwellings.”
No longer can rogue, activist judges abuse their authority to dictate the executive powers of the President of the United States, the Supreme Court ruled — a massive victory for the Constitution, the rule of law, and the presidency itself.
Since the moment President Trump took office, low-level activist judges have been exploiting their positions to kneecap the agenda on which he was overwhelmingly elected. In fact, of the 40 nationwide injunctions filed against President Trump’s executive actions in his second term, 35 of them came from just five far-left jurisdictions: California, Maryland, Massachusetts, Washington, and the District of Columbia.
Now, the Trump Administration can promptly proceed with critical action to save the country, like ending birthright citizenship, ceasing sanctuary city funding, suspending refugee resettlement, freezing unnecessary funding, stopping taxpayers from funding transgender surgeries, and much more.
U.S. Visas in 2024
The U.S. Department of State (DOS) announced on May 13 that it issued nearly 5.2 million nonimmigrant visas worldwide in the first half of fiscal year (FY) 2024. This number is “higher than in any previous year over the same period,” according to DOS.
“Over the past six months, 30 percent of our U.S. embassies and consulates overseas set all-time records for nonimmigrant visas issued,” the statement reads.
In the first half of FY 2024:
- The Department issued nearly 4.1 million B visitor visas (and border crossing cards) for tourists and temporary business travelers worldwide. • The highest-volume missions continued to set records.
- Nearly two-thirds of B visitor visas and border crossing cards were issued in Mexico, India, Brazil, the People’s Republic of China, Colombia, Argentina, the Dominican Republic, and Ecuador. Collectively, these missions issued more visas than ever before on record.
According to DOS, its efforts have bolstered the United States as a top academic destination and facilitated the workforce and talent needed to keep the American economy strong.
By mid-year FY 2024, the Department of State:
- Issued visas to nearly 134,000 exchange visitor program participants and 115,000 students. According to the Department of Commerce, international students contributed nearly $38 billion to the U.S. economy in 2022 and more than 335,000 jobs.
- Issued a record-breaking 205,000 visas to temporary or seasonal workers in agriculture and other sectors, providing lawful labor pathways that support key parts of the American economy.
- Issued 25,000 employment-based immigrant visas – 75% more than the same period in FY 2019, before the pandemic.
Altogether, DOS issued over 281,000 immigrant visas in the first half of FY 24.

We must recognize that certain American businesses and industries have, for far too long, taken advantage of and exploited undocumented workers.
The benefactors bestowed by immigrants from all parts of the world on the United States have been vast and history-making, and storytelling. As some say, we can all be considered immigrants, migrating from different countries into another, or conquerors who have established countries and governments, and although we personally might not have that experience, we can certainly say that our parents and ancestors did. We are a melting pot and we should feel proud that despite our differences, we can all stand behind the fact that we are all humans, made in the image of God, and there is much to say on this topic in the Bible, but that will be found in another section of this blog.
A system that has also been taken advantage of and pushed to its core in a country that has, on record, accepted the most immigrants from most countries in the world. However, it seems that no matter how many individuals are granted citizenship, asylum, or visas, it is never enough to address the claims, the crisis, and complaints.
Unfortunately and fortunately, Illegal and legal immigration have always been a part of the American Story. Some with justified reasoning and others with irresponsible and selfish actions. Some with good intentions and others with the wrong intentions. However, we can point out the contributions of decent, hardworking, God-fearing, and taxpaying individuals who strive to make things right, without overlooking that not reporting that you have crossed over to another foreign country is illegal, and such actions forfeit the due process at the entrance and stand little ground to require due process for the case of the individual.
By lesser wages and no medical benefits. The amount of money gained from the backs of these workers is innumerable, and until the changes in this administration, it was not dealt with directly, overlooked, and not taken into account. The undocumented benefited by having an employment that would pay them more than they would probably gain in their homeland, and therefore they pressed forward in the hope of acquiring enough money to eventually seek citizenship and cover the costs and standards to be met. Those who have tirelessly worked in our workforce, from farmers to servers, babysitters, local businesses, hotels, and many other industries.
However, to be fair, you don't hear much of these individuals facing any consequences, but only the immigrants. Have you heard of any financial liabilities? lawsuits or legislations that will hold accountable the past actions of those who hired undocumented workers to evade the system?

Florida Senator Blaise Ingoglia proposed SB 1498, a strict immigration bill mandating universal use of E-Verify, severe penalties for hiring undocumented workers, and new legal liabilities for employers. It expands existing laws, targeting non-compliance with financial penalties and license suspensions. The bill raises economic, legal, and administrative concerns while potentially reshaping Florida's labor market. Debate begins in March 2025.
Key Takeaways
- SB 1498 mandates universal E-Verify use for all Florida employers, expanding from the current threshold of 25 employees.
- Non-compliance risks include fines of up to $500,000 per violation and potential suspension or revocation of business licenses.
- Lawsuits are allowed against employers for harm caused by undocumented workers, raising significant legal and economic implications for businesses.
Key Features of the Department Of Justice Memo:
- Prioritizing Immigration Enforcement: The memo underscores the importance of immigration enforcement and directs federal prosecutors to focus on prosecuting cases related to immigration violations, including employing undocumented workers.
- Targeting Employers: For the first time, the memo explicitly states that companies knowingly or recklessly employing undocumented workers could face criminal charges.
- Impact on Staffing Agencies: Third-party companies and staffing agencies may also be implicated if they harbor or inadvertently hire undocumented workers. This holds them accountable as well.
This move aims to deter companies from taking shortcuts when hiring foreign workers, ensuring that immigration laws are strictly enforced across the board.

About 40 percent of crop farmworkers in the U.S. are undocumented, according to the Department of Agriculture. In 2023, an estimated 1.1 million undocumented individuals were employed in the hospitality sector—including hotels and restaurants—making up about 7.6 percent of that workforce, an analysis by the American Immigration Council showed.

The different paths to citizenship can be far-fetched and usually attainable only to those who have wealth and a higher education. If you're not an asset, you can be years on end in a system that can be broken and inadequately measured by some. Now, on the other side of the coin, is it possible to consider the alter effects of those who have been legally in line for years, and it can be said that their process is delayed. Meanwhile, the efforts and attention are given to those who choose to cross the border and don't report themselves for the due process needed by law.
The recent turning of the TPS and the CBP app was overturned by this administration, after finding that the former administration had exploited its process.
There were 10 countries designated for TPS at the start of the Trump Administration. Following the law, the administration terminated 6 countries because it was stated that the conditions no longer existed, and extended the TPS designations of 4 countries because the conditions continued to exist.
On the other side of the coin, the Biden-Harris Administration took unprecedented steps to expand and abuse TPS as a form of executive amnesty. The results were that the TPS individuals dramatically increased from around 10,000 to more than 2 million illegal aliens, most of whom entered the country over the last 3.5 years. If we are correct in our perception of the problems this created, it is clear to see how the system was abused and the aftereffects were felt all across our cities.

These are the actions they overstepped:
Step 1: They restored the TPS designations of the 6 countries terminated by the Trump Administration without providing evidence that conditions met the statutory requirements.
Step 2: They unlawfully began categorically paroling illegal aliens from countries like Afghanistan, Haiti, Venezuela, and Ukraine.
Step 3: They laundered the parole status, which is temporary and easy to terminate, of these illegal aliens by granting TPS with stated reasons that do not meet the statutory requirements.
Step 4: They unlawfully “redesignated” TPS countries every 18 months, which means they changed the cutoff date for eligibility to cover newly arrived illegal aliens from those countries. This alone has caused the total TPS population to increase by over 1 million illegal aliens.
Step 5: They granted TPS to 6 new countries, again citing reasons that do not appear to meet the statutory requirements for a designation.

The Trump Administration listed over 500 sanctuary jurisdictions obstructing federal immigration enforcement, many shielding dangerous illegals who have committed all kinds of crimes and are endangering American Citizens. White House Deputy Chief of Staff, Stephen Miller, stated on a C-Span interview: “The Constitution is the law of the land, and the supreme law is that the privilege of the written of habeas corpus.”
(Habeas corpus, which is a legal principle that allows individuals to challenge their detention or imprisonment in court, ensuring that the government must provide a valid reason for holding someone. It is a fundamental safeguard against unlawful detention and is rooted in both English common law and the U.S. Constitution.
He continues, “It can be suspended in a time of invasion, so we are looking at that option, a lot of it depends on whether the courts do the right thing or not, at the end of the day Congress passed the body of law known as the immigration nationality act which stripped Article 3 courts that's the judicial branch of jurisdiction over immigration cases, so Congress actually passed it's called jurisdiction stripping legislation it passed several laws that say that the Article 3 courts aren't even allowed to be involved in immigration cases many of you probably don't know this I'll give you a good example are you familiar with the term temporary protected status or TPS right so by statute the courts are stripped of jurisdiction from over ruling a presidential determination or a secretarial determination on TPS the secretary of Homeland Security makes that determination so when Secretary Kristi Noem
(United States secretary of homeland security) terminated TPS for the Illegals, when the court stepped in, they were violating explicit language that Congress enacted, saying they had no jurisdiction. So, the courts are not just at war with the executive branch; these radical woke judges are also at war with the legislative branch, so all of that will inform the choice that the president ultimately makes.”
Blaze Media Reports: Under the Biden administration, the DHS had briefly paused the CHNV program last year after a bombshell report found rampant fraud. The program requires beneficiaries to apply with a U.S.-based sponsor; however, those sponsors do not have to be citizens. The report revealed that some sponsors had used the same Social Security numbers, addresses, and phone numbers on hundreds of applications.

WASHINGTON (TND) — According to new numbers released by the city of New York, taxpayers have spent $308 million on resources for illegal immigrants since July 1, and are on track to spend around $10 billion over the last three years.
According to New York City Mayor Eric Adams, they’ve spent $1.98 billion on housing and rent for illegal immigrants, about $2 billion on services and supplies, nearly $500 million on food and medical costs, and another $500 million on IT and administrative costs.
California spent around $22 billion on benefits and services for illegal immigrants, and they continues to expand these benefits. Governor Gavin Newsom signed a bill expanding low- or no-cost Medi-Cal benefits, and new proposals are being considered to offer cash assistance to elderly illegal immigrants. Other benefits in California include K-12 education, indigent medical care, housing, and nutrition assistance. California also provides in-state tuition at public colleges and universities.
What is the Cost of Illegal Immigration on Taxpayers

The American Immigration Council
U.S. Customs and Border Protection (CBP) is the nation’s largest federal law enforcement agency, charged with securing the nation’s borders and facilitating international travel and trade. Our top priority is to keep terrorists and their weapons from entering the United States.
At the nation’s more than 300 ports of entry, Office of Field Operations (OFO) officers have a complex mission with broad law enforcement authorities tied to inspecting all foreign visitors, returning U.S. citizens, and imported cargo that enters the United States. Along the nation’s borders, the United States Border Patrol (USBP) and Air and Marine Operations (AMO) are the uniformed law enforcement components of CBP responsible for securing U.S. borders between ports of entry.
“We are concerned about the Department of Defense’s (DoD) immigration-related operations at the southern border and at Naval Station Guantanamo Bay — including the implications of these operations for the military’s budget, readiness, and morale,” the senators said in the lengthy letter requesting specific details from the Pentagon.
“DoD’s support for the Department of Homeland Security (DHS) has been expensive for American taxpayers, with some DoD expenses costing over three times more than when DHS performs the same function, while also posing 'an unacceptable risk' to units’ readiness,” they wrote.
“In all, the Trump administration is militarizing the country’s immigration enforcement system in an apparent attempt to signal toughness,” they added. ” But this political stunt will come at a high cost; it risks diverting DoD’s resources away from its vital mission in ways that compromise our national security.”
The fact that something is “law” doesn’t make it moral.
This is what legal scholars call legal positivism - the belief that laws are valid simply because they’re enacted by the right authority, regardless of whether they are fair or ethical. But as people of faith and conscience, we believe that God’s justice must always guide human law. Laws must be reformed when they no longer reflect dignity, truth, or moral dignity

I will share with you the following Bible Study, which has over 30 Biblical verses on how we should think regarding this topic of Immigration:
https://biblestudyforyou.com/bible-verses-about-immigration
Illegal and legal immigration have always been a part of the American Story, and we can point out the great contributions of decent, hardworking, taxpaying individuals. Those who have tirelessly worked in our workforce, from farmers to servers, babysitters, and those employed by Citizens, corporations, local businesses, hotels, and many other industries.
However, there are many components to the other side of the coin. The reality of this is that times have challenged us to take
in a stranger, when there are countless experiences of wrongdoings and those
who have taken advantage of the goodness of others. In a world where violence
and lawlessness have taken hold in the hearts of many, and murder and crime are
rampant, we are to take another perspective on this topic and make a concise
change to how we address this issue. Let’s consider this verse: “The Lord watches over the foreigner and sustains the
fatherless and the widow, but he frustrates the ways of the wicked.” – Psalms 146:9
“Then Peter began to speak: ‘I now
realize how true it is that God does not show favoritism but accepts from every
nation the one who fears him and does what is right.'” – Acts 10:34-35
Now let’s also consider this verse,
it clearly reads “do not wrong or violence to the foreigner”; however, when it
is the foreigner who is doing the oppressing or robbing, and not doing what is
right, or shedding innocent blood, it is in direct contrast to accept such
practices.
“This is what the LORD says: ‘Do what
is just and right. Rescue from the hand of the oppressor the one who has been
robbed. Do not do wrong or violence to the foreigner, the fatherless, or the
widow, and do not shed innocent blood in this place.'” – Jeremiah 22:3
This is a worldwide problem and not
an American problem. We have seen the uprise in countries like Paris, France,
Germany and many more, from countries, like Africa, middle east and others,
with rampant invasion of heartless men who have undoubtedly created free,
intimidation, raped, beatings and murder of the citizens, and are aiming to
establish a takeover and even establish Sharia law.
In America, we have experienced countless lawlessness, and the same scenarios of theft, rape and murder have happened in great numbers, not as the statistics that the democrats or left has tried to hide, and evade from reporting, which is a major problem. How can a country turn on its own citizens? It is simple, paid propaganda and paid corrupt government and civil officials that are bought off, into changing the narrative so that their psyop is implemented.
Psychological operations (PSYOP) are operations to convey selected information and indicators to audiences to influence their motives and objective reasoning, and ultimately the behavior of governments, organizations, groups, and large foreign powers.
So, who is interested in this type of operation? Firstly, those interested in bypassing the structures of the law and constitution, to gain a foothold in the country of their choice.
Secondly, those enemies of those
countries know that allowing open borders and having no account of those
individuals to be counted, vetted, and accounted for will eventually lead to a
diverse number of problems. We saw this firsthand when millions were let into
our country right after the COVID mandates, without any vetting of their
medical standing. It was an outcry, since American Citizens had been basically
forced to get vaccinated, but this coin flipped, and suddenly, that did not
matter, and why?
It gets us to our second point,
“election season,” since the democratic party, after having lost in numbers of
registrants and voters, deceptively took up the immigration cause. We saw
this greatly when former President Obama, had deported the greatest numbers of
immigrants from our nation, and they remained nonchalant, as if nothing
happened here. There was no great outrage, or media coverage as such, because democrats don’t fight for what is right per se; in most cases, they
fight for what is convenient to them at the time. It was only when the coin
flipped and Trump was campaigning against them that it mattered. They saw they
needed voters, since most common sense and informed voters were leaving the
party in droves, and that they needed new voters, even if those voters were not
legal votes from citizens.
Let the floodgates open! And so, they did, more than any other time in history, millions were
coming in, it did not matter if they had an asylum legit case, if they were
accompanied by their families or not, vaccinated or not, civil or criminal,
good or evil, rapist or murderers. The grave difference was not that they were
just allowing them in, but were covering them, and working with foreign agents
to lure them into our nation. Their goal was to bring them in at all costs, and
cost they did, by funding, aiding, and abetting them.
The ugly side of the coin is that
many were taken into all kinds of hotels, while our homeless and veterans still
lacked a place to call home. We can all want humanity to have a warm bed and
food to continue with their struggle, but many went overboard, facilitating them
with illegal services in Medicaid and even tampering with our Social Security
system, and having them receive checks. Meanwhile, threatening Americans that
the system will soon collapse and we could not count on our checks on a
long-term basis, all the while blaming cuts on the Republicans, in a deceptive
gaslighting way.
Taxpayers were pushed to the limits, and high prices were everywhere, the reason being, someone had to pay for the food,
phones, medical bills, programs, housing, etc., of the overwhelming number of
immigrants coming into our cities and towns. But when these same, tried to go
to Martha’s Vineyard, or other lofty neighborhoods where some of the richest
democrats lived, they were the first to call ICE on them and have them removed.
These extreme measures of open
borders are not reasonable or sustainable for any country, and we can see that
in Mexico, for example, which has borders, as every other country in the world.
Many countries will not accept other migrants as citizens and have stronger and
harsher laws for those who violate these laws. At the peak of this crisis in
America, it was said that approximately 10,000 crossings were happening at
the border in one single day. In 2023, there were a quarter million crossings in
just one month.
Some claim that deporting immigrants
is kidnapping immigrants, and that deporting them to another country without
due process is wrong, yet the other side of the coin is that when they came in
illegally, if they did not seek “due process” or have claimed asylum, they
forfeited the right of process. As hard as it is, we can’t break the law and claim
rights to the law we break.
In another aspect, many who have
legit asylum claims fall at times within the cracks of this broken system and are
facing grave consequences. It is also questionable if ICE agents arrest those
who are showing up to their court hearings. Recently, the Justice Department
fired multiple immigration judges amid case backlogs and is aiming to convict
and arrest anyone who is aiding and abetting immigrants or trying to steer ICE
from arrest. It is a very hard time for America, and this picture is not looking
good for anyone. It is a complex and deep topic that can’t be easily resolved.
There is currently an approximation
of 50,000.000 undocumented illegals in the United States. Since 2021,
immigration has added around 10,000 people to the U.S population, according to
the Congressional Budget Office. Less than 1/3 came in legally on visas, work or
student visas, or as refugees. Many of the rest crossed the border without
authorization or overstayed their visas, often seeking to stay on
humanitarian grounds once they had entered. Despite, no matter how much America
does, and in comparison, to other countries’ immigration stance which are never as fair as America, it is
never enough, because for most in the democratic leftist mind set, America
should do as told, and have no sovereignty when it comes to their own affairs.
Let’s speak a bit about Mexico, mainly because
of its border issues, Mexico has unfortunately become a haven for drug and
human trafficking. The cartels, in a great part, control the border, and most of
the immigrants from whichever country that cross through must pay these coyote,s
and many women and children have been raped and even murdered. One of the
largest sources of child pornography is streaming from Mexico, and they are
also responsible for the Fentanyl, which is killing Americans in droves. Meanwhile, Spanish media channels like Univision focus on attacking Trump in a most
hateful way, and many times do not address their own problems with the American border,
while they have their own border to protect from immigrants coming from
Guatemala and other Latin American countries.
Univision has become a specialist in
producing and broadcasting movies and novels on cartels, violence, and
corruption; they alone are responsible for their content and guilty of feeding
this beast, instead of leading their viewers to abstain. It is not as their
programming has been mainly to bring awareness to the dealings of cartels, but
rather has done so in a way of glamorization, leading many people, especially
our youth, to try to mimic these lawless and violent characters.
Although Mexico has been applauded
for its arts, music, food, and culture, we can’t deny that the other side of
the coin has strong ties to black magic, witchcraft, idolatry, and in recent
years has fallen by gangs, human and drug traffickers. Univision, as
mentioned, one of their major networks, has led many of their communities to
suffer the consequences of this type of propaganda, leaving their hardworking,
church followers, and family-oriented citizens to also suffer gravely under the
fear and persecution of the cartels.
Univision should take accountability for their shows and coverage, for they influence masses and must
respond to the countless number of viewers from other countries, who absorb
this type of programming, and it has affected the culture and the family units
of many Spanish-speaking nations. They are not the Univision of 20 years ago;
they have been paid into the system, and it is known that cartels, through the
influence of their money, have paid for many corrupt governments to be silenced
by fear or by profit.
It only takes two common denominating
factors for this type of corruption to happen: the love of money and the
silence of good people who do not stand or speak out against corruption. We saw
in the recent protest of Mexicans in several States protesting ICE, they
chanted “We are not going anywhere,” and we could understand their pain and
concerns; however, it is futile to think anyone has the right to overstep boundaries
and laws and force another country to forcibly take one in. If they go try that
in other countries, they will find that it will not go well for them. In their
many displays of flags, not one American flag was waved, and although some
truly love America, many individuals, be it Mexican or any other race, truly
hate America. How can we live in a country we hate? And how can we have
self-respect if we don’t respect the country we are in?
This and other reasons are why there
is such an uptick in anti-American rhetoric and a hateful position against
America, going to the point of selling it out to their very own enemies.
Therefore, it is a fact, we are not fighting an enemy outside our borders; we
are fighting the enemies within, and the not-so-surprising news is that many
Americans have turned on America, themselves. On the other side of the coin,
many have found refuge, security, and a better life, and respect America, with
its imperfections and flaws.
Here in New York, you will find that
most Mexicans are hard workers, family-oriented, and are mainly to themselves.
They build their businesses and in the most part, keep to themselves; however, I
have noticed that their focus is always on them, few pour into others in our
communities, and most of their accomplishments and aimed towards their own
tents, building for Mexico and many do not have America’s best interest. Only
those who allow themselves to be Americanized or have been serving a greater
cause other than themselves, like we see in certain cases, and in the churches
they serve.
Corruption and crime are worldwide, and this is not a Mexican, Latin, or American matter; however, we can’t deny the hard reality that examples as these are happening, and if we are fair-minded and common-sense thinkers, we can’t deny reality. The hardest reality is to face it and uproot it. The more recent influx of crime coming from El Salvador gangs, like MS13, is another major haul, and fortunately for the election of their President Nayib Bukele, crime has gone down in great numbers. Tren de Aragua had 2,720 recent arrests in the United States, stated Kristen Noem, in a White House press conference on June 27, 2025.
His faith has been a great factor, and
his force to reduce crime will give testament to the power of a leader who
allows God to take the mantle and direct one’s path to righteousness. Here is a
living example before our eyes, how a nation can shift with the right leaders
who are not bought and sold. Statistics don’t like it, and once a nation is
aligned properly, everything starts to flow spiritually, socially, economically, and educationally.
As per reports, homicides fell
by 50 percent during Bukele's first year in office. After 87 people were killed
by gangs over one weekend in March 2022, Bukele initiated a nationwide crackdown on gangs, resulting in the arrests of over 85,000 people with alleged
gang affiliations by December 2024. El Salvador's homicide rate decreased to
1.9 homicides per 100,000 in 2024, one of the lowest in the Americas. Yet, the left and democrats always find a way to find fault
and criticize him, mostly because he has befriended Trump, so to them, it does
not matter that El Salvador is in a far better state of affairs and lives have
been saved and the country is booming, it only matters that he is not of the
left.
Which leads me to our next point, the
incarceration of immigrants. I strongly believe that although someone crossed
the border illegally, if they have not committed further crimes, they should be
fined for breaking illegally into another country, and deported at most, but
not given jail time. U.S Immigration and Customs reports that ICE ensures that non-citizens
are removed once they have been determined deportable by an immigration court.
The undocumented immigrants in the U.S are entitled to due process as far as
known by the Fifth and Fourteen Amendments. These include their right to a
hearing before a Judge and the opportunity to present evidence or appeal a
deportation order. However, there is no trial, no free legal representation, and
no prolonged court battles. If we look at South Africa, plagued with similar
problems, they are asking to declare a State of Emergency and have Mass
Deportations.
Please make sure you also post about immigrants who are criminals, like the hundreds that have raped, murdered, broken into homes, torn up businesses, and those anarchists in L.A. Those who are throwing rocks at officers, destroying city properties, and endangering citizens. The Bible also says a whole lot about anyone, be it a citizen or not, who commits such actions will face penalties. They give good immigrants a bad image! It seems that the leftist Christians always seem to overlook these harsh realities. Though we are called to love and help those in need, we are not told to leave open borders to anyone without proper vetting and procedures.
As a New Yorker, it was not emotionally healthy or safe to come off a bus near Port Authority and find myself having to walk through streets filled with 200-300 men, just looking at how they will survive among many robberies, uproars, and dangerous scenarios. They were encouraged and sponsored by an unhinged democratic party looking for votes. These actions are not normal and are unacceptable. There have been 340,000 missing children at the Border Crossings.
Yet, the fake news is constantly trying to hide all the recent crimes, murders, and rapes, to the point of not covering them at all!
We are now seeing that the Trump administration is providing airfare, $1,000, and other perks for them to leave willingly. This should have never reached this point, but the greediness of the democrats to open the borders, to use their votes, also illegal, also giving them first class hotels, medicaid, food stamps, while our homeless and veterans were still homeless in the streets and meanwhile saying Social security was going bankrupt, while they were stealing it, proven by Congress, is unimaginable! This now caused many people to be deported, which would have never happened in the manner that it has!
We must not resort to collective blaming. Many specifically aim to separate the criminal immigrants from other Immigrants. Unless it's a conservative site, most news outlets lie about information and statistics. We see firsthand in the news outlets where many won’t cover the crimes, because that is the point of bias where we are at. As a Journalist and activist, I research extensively and also speak from the realities seen and the experience of living in Manhattan, and traveling to other places. In NYC, many can witness the great increase in theft, crime, drug sales, prostitution, and more. From other States, Fox News has covered many of the murders and rapes, home invasions, and other crimes, like looting. However, one will not know because they were not covered and reported by MSNBC, CNN, or even basic local news. Thankfully, for other news networks, people can now reach the truth.
The point of comparing immigrants to the crime of Citizens is not the point, nor would I do that, we must understand this is not the same kind of people crossing the borders from 20 years ago. Be it is citizens or immigrants, this is a more violent world. If we research, many Latino Countries have also been infected with high crime, drugs, and gangs like never seen. We saw this mostly in El Salvador with MS13 and the cartels of Mexico, with cartels and gangs that are in war with their own Government.
Also, let’s keep in mind that many crimes go unreported. I will share personally in my personal experience. I had my identity stolen, and years ago, an undocumented immigrant stole $5,000 from me, posing as a real estate agent. My mother had about $4,000 stolen from a travel agency office, which was a fraud, and then disappeared! I have also seen and heard of many other cases, and there is no hope of finding those who don’t have papers or use other people’s identities, which happens often.
As for the Obama era, there was family separation, and there was no resistance, no riots, and few protests. This uproar with Trump is politically stirred and backed by NGO’s, globalists, and elites like George Soros, that’s just factual, because the downfall of independence and nationalism is under great attack! Those who created the Blm movement, which started with peaceful protests, from an organization that is anti-American, leftist, along with anarchist groups like Antifa, turned our nation into a living hell.
Approximately 2 billion in damages, 2,000 Police Officers injured, over 570 riots, hundreds of lives injured, and hundreds beaten and persecuted in trains, streets, and restaurants, that was the norm! In Manhattan alone, our downtown court area was unrecognizable. I really don’t know how you could say they were mostly peaceful when streets, businesses, government buildings, American historical statues, and more were burned and destroyed! There was no justification to do such actions!
The storyline was clearly also aimed at Trump, and they pushed the narrative with a list of lies and false news that would be hard to put in one post. He was vehemently accused of racism, although he has always supported the black community, having a record of doing so, even before being in politics. As President, he passed criminal reform legislation, among other actions, and funding for the black community, more than any other President in history. I do have a blog on my page with the details. Our African American voters have been aware of the misleading and deceptive methods that the left used, and many have retaliated and left the democratic party, for this and many other reasons, and rightly so!
On the point of open borders, I see, unfortunately, you really missed the facts on this. The border was open! It was not legally documented as such, but visually and historically, there has never been such an increase in crossings at once, due to the incompetence of the previous administration. The vetting and legal procedures were no longer active, and the border officers were told to stand down, leading to many of them filing complaints. The U.S. Customs and Border Patrol have the statistics on this, and fervently sought help, but to no avail, until Trump. If the democrats had not pushed open borders and the influx of illegal immigrants and overwhelmed the American people, this would have never reached this point, and this is only the beginning. This can turn really ugly, hopefully it won’t.
I would say this, I was born in Manhattan and lived here all my life, I saw with my own eyes, thousands of illegal immigrants everywhere, hundreds in one area, dozens on corners, hotels packed to the brim, so and so forth, never before had this happened in recent history and people were intimidated by the numbers.
It has been documented by Congress and DOGE that, indeed, immigrants were voting and receiving benefits like Medicaid and Social Security by the millions, were given to false and decease names, among other fiscal corruption, which was found. This was all done by democrats. And yes, they have been heavily involved in bringing in immigrants from many Countries to a level that is outside their legal and administrative congressional or senatorial duties.
The fact is, our constitution has been written for citizens, not foreigners, as they are, as usual, twisting the truth. However, the undocumented do have rights and protection under the Fifth and Fourteenth Amendments, although debated, but they also should be able to have a fair legal process. I believe there are other ways to help families and immigrants, especially those who have been here for years and worked hard, and paid taxes.
Many paid lesser pay and offer no benefits by many American companies, as we know, some companies do it for greed and to evade taxes, which is also illegal. Furthermore, all these factors do not evade the fact that many came by illegal means, and did not seek due process at their forced entrance, so the debate of due process is limited and different; they don’t have the right to be assured citizenship.
As someone who throughout the years has had hundreds of friends who have been immigrants, fellow church members, and being that I have a family with 10 different nationalities, I don’t speak from a place of racism, be it far from me. I stand against racism and xenophobia, especially the recent uprising of racism among our fellow White Americans, on what many call Christian Nationalism! Trying to paint them as false Christians.
The harsh attacks, riots, and rapes in several European Countries against Whites are destroying these countries, a takeover jihad by Muslims, but it is not addressed by leftists or democrats, nor do they cover it in the media. Where is the voice of those justice and rights speaker advocates? America and Christianity have been under great persecution, sedition, racism, hate, bias, and censorship! Yet, many churches and organizations are biased and leftist; they stand only for what is aligned with their liberalistic secular mindset, evading religiosity. They have done worse by going to another extreme without holding on to a gospel centric measure. This and more injustices are happening, but I digress. Social justice has moved from biblical principles!
I stand outside all the boxes and aim to speak for truth and biblical foundations, which are above and beyond politics. Thank you for reading, and may God help us all find solutions and better immigration, civil, justice, and overall laws by which we may live. Until the king of kings Jesus Christ comes to establish law and order, peace and safety, from all enemies of humanity, and who will bring all things to the light and unmask many. What is written is written, we see this anti-christ spirit blinding many, and if the chosen are not careful, they too could be deceived, if it were possible!
In America, it was reported by America PAC that 13,000 murderers, 15,000 rapists, and 425,000 convicted criminals were in our country. That is the account of those who are known.

Under 10 U.S.C. § 12406, the President may call up the National Guard to federal active duty without the governor's consent if necessary to:
a. Repelling an invasion,
b. Suppress a rebellion, or
c. To guarantee the execution of federal laws.
This places the National Guard under federal command and control, removing it from state authority.
We hope all countries gain control of their borders and citizens, and all people can live safely and soundly. We all deserve to have common-sense solutions for the greater good.
