The head of the RNC, Ronna Romney-McDaniel announced to Axios the Republican Party will be spending donor money on launching a program to help immigrants prepare for the civics portion of the naturalization test. While her official statement is that it will help win over more Hispanic and Asian voters I can’t possible overstate how incredibly stupid this decision is. Firstly, a majority of legal immigrants have always and will always vote for Democrats - this goes back to the Irish and Italian immigrants voting overwhelmingly for FDR in the 1930s. Pushing more towards legalization is not going to make them loyal to the GOP is not going to buy loyalty. Secondly, Republican voters have said in a series of polls that they do not want more legal immigration, they want less. Lastly, shouldn’t this donor money if going towards charity go to Americans? The establishment GOP will never stop spitting in the face of their own base, it’s just mindboggling.
According to Reuters, an Ohio man has been charged with raping a 10-year-old girl who later traveled to neighboring Indiana for an abortion. Gerson Fuentes, 27, who was arrested on Tuesday, appeared in Franklin County, Ohio, municipal court for an arraignment on Wednesday. A police investigator testified at the hearing that Fuentes confessed to raping the girl at least twice. Fuentes is an illegal alien. The case became even stranger when it was discovered that the original person who blew the whistle on this case was an abortion activist who labeled the rapist as a minor, when he wasn’t. Secondly, Fuentes is the victim’s mother’s boyfriend and now the mother (who is also illegal) is trying to protect him and was aware of the rape. They’re all going to jail and being deported - or should.
U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) is set to run out of funding as the southern border continues to be overwhelmed by migrants making illegal crossings, according to The Daily Caller. If the Department of Homeland Security (DHS) doesn’t step in, the agency could run out of money before October. To solve the issue, DHS would have to pull funding from other organizations and allocate it to ICE.
The Mexico-based, cartel-backed coyotes schedule the delivery of their migrant clients to help President Joe Biden’s border agents efficiently catch and release those migrants to helpful non-profits and eager employers, according to Breitbart News. Border crossers are arriving from more countries and in greater numbers than ever, at the same time that Mexican migration has surged to levels not matched since the mid-2000s.
