Daily Verse | Jeremiah 49:11
Leave your orphans; I will protect their lives. Your widows too can trust me.

Friday’s Reading: Jeremiah 50-52
Saturday’s Reading: Lamentations 1-5

Friday and for those of you who are reading through the Bible with me this year, we’re more than halfway through our third quarter of reading. By weekend’s end we’ll be through Lamentations, starting Ezekiel on Monday. After that, it’s Daniel and the minor prophets and we’re done with the Old Testament. We start the New Testament on October 3. For those of you who haven’t been reading along, think about joining us for the last quarter of the year and read the New Testament with us.

In addition to ruining the economy, running up mountains of debt, crushing the middle class, and harassing the Great Orange MenaceTM, let’s not forget that Brandon’s also burdening us with millions of illegals who make their way across our border unencumbered by any pretense of difficulty.

Nearly 5 million illegal immigrants have crossed U.S. borders in the 18 months since President Joe Biden took office, according to a new report.

A total of 4.9 million illegal aliens, including some 900,000 “gotaways” who evaded apprehension and have since disappeared into American communities, have entered the country by the end of July, the Federation for American Immigration Reform (FAIR) said in a statement on Aug. 16.

“Roughly the equivalent of the entire population of Ireland has illegally entered the United States in the 18 months President Biden has been in office, with many being released into American communities,” FAIR President Dan Stein said in the press release.

Huh. Where do you suppose those NINE HUNDRED THOUSAND PEOPLE are now? We know some of them have been shipped off from Texas to Washington, D.C. and New York City, where the mayors are griping about having to deal with the lawbreakers.

Two million illegal aliens have entered the country in the first 10 months of this financial year, according to data from U.S. Customs and Border Protection (CBP). In June, more than 207,000 illegal immigrants were apprehended attempting to cross the U.S.–Mexico border, making this the highest number of June apprehensions in history.

Brandon’s setting new records all the time as he lays waste to what was once a uniquely American culture. We now have somewhere between 22 and 40 million illegals living among us who have become an unwelcome and unwanted drain on our economy, our medical system and our educational system.

I’ve addressed this issue many times before. Here’s a few paragraphs from a story by Jordan Boyd, from a post back in April:

“We’re getting to a tipping point,” Scott said. “This many people being released into the U.S. this fast is going to change the demographics of U.S. cities because nothing stays at the borders.”

This is a cause for concern for many states struggling with the criminal effects of an open border, not just states that sit close to Mexico. As Morgan noted in our conversation, “the overwhelming majority of illegal migrants do not stay in the border towns and states.”

“What happens and what comes through our borders does not stay there. The border cities and states there, they receive the additional brunt of it, but they’re just the throughput,” Morgan explained. “And it doesn’t matter what the danger is whether that’s an invasion of illegal migrant, or drugs or gang members or criminal migrant, or a threat to our national security vulnerability, the border towns and states are the throughput but they’re making their way to every town, city, and state.”

When illegal border-crossers are released without significant repercussions and without being forced to report to an immigration facility, it endangers the entire nation. In 2021, approximately 47,000 migrants were released into the United States because of Biden’s policies but did not report to ICE on time or at all, as they were required to do.

I’ve been calling this problem an “invasion” for a few years because there really isn’t another word for it. Now, even professional publications, like Issues & Insights, are using the same language.

No Matter How Many Times Biden Denies It, The U.S. Is Being Invaded

A new poll finds that more than half of Americans think the U.S. is being invaded by illegal aliens flooding into the country. And they are right, no matter what President Joe Biden claims, or how diligently the mainstream press tries to cover it up.

“More than half (54%) of Americans think it’s at least somewhat true that we’re experiencing an invasion at the southern border,” according to the NPR/Ipsos poll.

That is a shocking finding, given the denials from the administration that there is a crisis at all, and the fact that the mainstream media will cover anything but the flood of illegal immigrants under Biden.

Of course, Brandon denies that there is any such “invasion” and is triggered by the use of such words. The numbers tell a different story.

The chart below shows illegal crossings each month under Biden and compares that with the monthly average from 2012-2020. It also provides a sampling of what Biden and Co. were saying about this crisis at the time.

If this isn’t an invasion, what is?

The administration hates American citizens and is seeking to degrade our strength and uniqueness as a country as part of the Great Reset. They are putting enormous pressure on our culture, our economy and our standing in the world. They’re not stupid. This is all intentional.

And they’re doing their best to complete as much wreckage as possible before they potentially lose power in the midterms come November.

It’s galling, maddening, outrageous.

(Try to) Have a good weekend.
