Keywords

💡Southern Border

The Southern Border refers to the border between the United States and Mexico. In the context of the video, it's a focal point for discussions on immigration, border security, and the political tug-of-war between state and federal authorities. The script mentions the Texas Attorney General refusing federal agents access to a state park on the border where razor wire was installed, highlighting the contentious nature of border control measures.

💡Razor wire

Razor wire, mentioned in the context of being installed by the state of Texas at the border, serves as a physical barrier intended to stop unauthorized entry. It symbolizes the harsh measures some states are willing to take to enforce border security and the ongoing conflict between state-level initiatives and federal immigration policies.

💡Sanctuary cities

Sanctuary cities are municipalities that adopt policies limiting cooperation with the federal enforcement of immigration law. The script contrasts these cities with Texas' actions, highlighting the ongoing debate over local versus federal jurisdiction in immigration matters and the various ways jurisdictions navigate or resist federal immigration laws.

💡Invasion

The term 'invasion' is used in the script to describe the perceived influx of undocumented immigrants into the United States. This language reflects the video's contentious stance on immigration, framing it as a security threat rather than a humanitarian or economic issue.

💡Asylum seekers

Asylum seekers are individuals who seek international protection from persecution in their home countries. The script discusses the surge of people at the border seeking asylum, reflecting on the broader discussion of who qualifies for asylum and the policies surrounding asylum procedures in the United States.

💡Illegal aliens

This term is used in the script to refer to individuals who enter or reside in a country without legal permission. It is part of the video's broader dialogue on immigration, focusing on the legal and policy challenges of undocumented immigration and the narrative surrounding the enforcement of immigration laws.

💡Amnesty

Amnesty in the context of immigration refers to a government pardon for individuals who are residing in the country illegally, often leading to legal status. The script criticizes proposals for amnesty, framing them as counterproductive to enforcing immigration laws and maintaining border security.

💡Health insurance for undocumented immigrants

The script touches on the topic of providing health insurance to undocumented immigrants, specifically referencing California's policies. This highlights the debate over access to public services for undocumented populations and the varying approaches of state governments.

💡Border Patrol

The Border Patrol is a federal law enforcement agency responsible for monitoring and securing the borders of the United States. The script mentions Border Patrol agents cutting razor wire to aid immigrants, emphasizing the conflict between different branches of government and their approaches to border security.

💡Comprehensive immigration plan

This term refers to proposed reforms aimed at overhauling the United States immigration system. The script critiques the Biden Administration's immigration plan, interpreting it as a move towards offering amnesty and citizenship to undocumented immigrants, reflecting the polarized views on how to address immigration.

Highlights

The Texas Attorney General refused to grant federal agents access to the state park where they erected razor wire fencing.

This defiance of federal law by states has precedent with Democrat leaders allowing sanctuary cities.

25 Republican governors signed a letter supporting Texas but more concrete action is needed beyond letters.

Clips of border agents already cutting Texas' razor wire fencing may go viral if the Biden administration orders taking down barriers.

DHS and FBI have warned of terrorists, criminals and cartels exploiting the porous borders.

Biden promised to surge asylum seekers to the border and give all hearings despite bogus claims.

Most asylum claims now are coaching with fake stories just to get into the U.S. and disappear.

There are estimated to be over 30 million illegal immigrants now, almost 10% of the U.S. population.

On his first day, Biden introduced a plan to legalize all illegal immigrants.

California now offers free health insurance to undocumented immigrants, costing taxpayers billions.

Top Democrats like Obama and Schumer sounded very tough on illegal immigration years ago.

The reason for the shift is explained in the new book "The War on Conservatives."

Order the paperback on Amazon or get the ebook from major stores.

The book has a full chapter on immigration not allowed to be discussed on Big Tech.

play00:00

the situation at the southern Border in

play00:01

Texas is getting very interesting

play00:04

because yesterday the Texas Attorney

play00:06

General refused to Grant federal agents

play00:09

access to the area in question where

play00:12

they've been putting up razor wire to

play00:14

stop The Invasion which is in a state

play00:16

park so that is State Property this

play00:19

after the Supreme Court ruled that the

play00:22

government has supposedly the right to

play00:26

take down the barbwire fences that the

play00:29

state of Texas has been putting up and

play00:32

so now the Texas Attorney General the

play00:34

lead lawyer of the State of Texas is

play00:38

saying no but States and even cities

play00:41

defying federal law is nothing new in

play00:43

fact Democrat Mayors Governors have been

play00:46

doing this for many many years by

play00:48

allowing Sanctuary cities where they

play00:52

interfere with the lawful orders of the

play00:54

Border Patrol and the Immigration and

play00:56

Customs Enforcement ice to round up

play00:59

illegal aliens in their states and in

play01:01

their cities and so now it appears that

play01:05

Texas is just giving the Democrats a

play01:07

taste of their own medicine and now 25

play01:09

different Republican Governors have

play01:11

signed letter supporting Texas in their

play01:14

quest to prevent an invasion of their

play01:17

state but that's not good enough because

play01:19

Republicans always send off a strongly

play01:21

worded letter that does nothing so if

play01:24

these Governors actually mean business

play01:27

they should start sending Texas gos of

play01:30

Razer wire to help out with the

play01:32

operation and this may lead to a major

play01:35

game of guaca-- where the state of Texas

play01:38

may continue to just put up a barrier in

play01:40

order to protect their state from the

play01:42

invasion of millions and millions of

play01:44

illegal aliens while the federal

play01:47

government then goes and tries to cut it

play01:49

down and there have already been clips

play01:52

of border patrol agents cutting the

play01:54

razor wire in order to help the illegal

play01:56

aliens invade the country but if the bid

play01:59

Administration orders the Department of

play02:01

Homeland Security to in Mass start

play02:03

tearing down these barriers these

play02:06

makeshift border fences then those clips

play02:09

are going to go Mega viral the

play02:11

Department of Homeland Security and the

play02:13

FBI have already warned Congress about

play02:17

the eminent danger because of the

play02:20

invasion over the Border because God

play02:23

knows what kind of terrorists and

play02:25

organized criminals and cartel members

play02:28

are invading it's not just people from

play02:30

Mexico or Central America this is a

play02:34

recent photo of border patrol welcoming

play02:38

the Invaders and as you can see these

play02:41

are all uh Asians probably from China

play02:44

probably Chinese government communist

play02:47

agents infiltrating to do who knows what

play02:50

who knows when but old Joo does support

play02:52

a strong border for Ukraine though

play02:56

Nations have a right to sovereignty and

play02:59

territorial Integrity they have the

play03:01

freedom to set their own course and

play03:04

choose with whom they will associate and

play03:07

Joe Biden sounded like an American when

play03:09

he was running for president back in

play03:11

2008 which I guess the cycle started in

play03:15

2007 when he ultimately lost and was

play03:17

picked as the VP by Barack Obama but

play03:20

here he is back then it makes sense that

play03:24

no great

play03:25

nation can be in a position where they

play03:29

can't control their borders it matters

play03:32

how you control your borders not just

play03:34

for immigration but it matters for drugs

play03:37

Terror a whole range of other things so

play03:40

that's the first sort of truism the

play03:43

second truism is that that this nation

play03:48

is such that people in the country

play03:51

should have the first opportunity to be

play03:54

able to have jobs that pay well and have

play03:59

jobs that are decent and that after that

play04:04

the second crack goes to what we may

play04:06

need from other parts of the world or

play04:09

other or or any other input that was

play04:12

then and this is now as president there

play04:15

several more things because things have

play04:17

changed I would in fact make sure that

play04:20

there is we immediately surge to the

play04:22

Border all those people are seeking

play04:24

Asylum they deserve to be heard that's

play04:26

who we are we're a nation says if you

play04:28

want to flee and you're freeing

play04:30

oppression you should come I'm sorry but

play04:32

the only people who have legitimate

play04:34

Asylum claims are those who worked in a

play04:36

Communist Regime and then became a

play04:38

whistleblower to expose the corruption

play04:41

and then had to flee otherwise they'd be

play04:43

imprisoned or killed which amounts to

play04:45

just a small handful of people not

play04:48

millions and millions every single year

play04:51

Tucker Carlson's former producer and

play04:52

Lead writer Greg ree wrote this on

play04:55

Twitter yesterday saying when I worked

play04:57

at a big law firm in New York Shephard

play04:59

Mull the partners provided pro bono

play05:01

legal services to a Venezuelan migrant

play05:04

who was clearly lying to get Asylum she

play05:06

claimed their phone was being monitored

play05:08

by the authorities because she heard

play05:11

static Etc she knew exactly what to say

play05:14

because she had been coached she then

play05:16

came to this country never paid rent

play05:18

even though she had Gucci bags The Firm

play05:21

also represented her in Housing Court

play05:24

too so that she could get endless

play05:26

extensions this is what most Asylum

play05:29

claims are the goal is to just come up

play05:31

with a story and get these people into

play05:33

the country where they can disappear and

play05:35

never show up to court the biggest law

play05:38

firms in the world support this and the

play05:41

millions and millions of them that come

play05:42

here and that break into our country and

play05:44

then just claim they're seeking Asylum

play05:46

they are literally given court dates

play05:49

over 10 years into the future so they

play05:52

just come here claim Asylum and then

play05:55

they're allowed to stay with some sort

play05:58

of a green card or some temporary you

play06:01

know status Asylum status until their

play06:03

court date which literally isn't for a

play06:07

decade the official fake number from

play06:10

like six years ago was that there were

play06:12

11 million of them here but studies even

play06:15

from Yale University and MIT found that

play06:18

there are at least double that and so

play06:20

that was back in

play06:22

2018 so even if just a million came in

play06:26

every year since then which we know that

play06:28

there were at least two million that

play06:30

came in in Joe Biden's first year in

play06:33

office in 2021 so it is now about 30

play06:38

million probably at least 30 million

play06:41

illegal aliens this country has 330

play06:45

million people in it so literally almost

play06:48

10% of the people in this country now

play06:51

are illegal Invaders and what did Joe

play06:53

Biden do on his very first day in office

play06:56

back in January of

play06:58

2021 he announced his plan to legalize

play07:02

them all and I also want to remind folks

play07:05

who are watching that on the first day

play07:07

of this president's Administration he

play07:09

introduced a comprehensive immigration

play07:11

plan because he understood and knew

play07:14

right as many of us do that immigration

play07:16

system had been broken for decades and

play07:18

we needed to actually deal with it in a

play07:20

legislative way let me translate that or

play07:23

Willian speak a comprehensive

play07:25

immigration plan means to give them

play07:28

amnesty and a Pathway to citizenship

play07:31

which is the equivalent of if a bunch of

play07:32

teenagers sneak in through the exit into

play07:35

a movie theater instead of the theater

play07:37

kicking them out when they get noticed

play07:40

then it would be like them giving them

play07:41

free popcorn and Candy which is exactly

play07:44

what the Democrat plan is remember all

play07:46

the Democrat candidates who were running

play07:47

for president in 2020 when they were

play07:50

asked this question raise your hand if

play07:53

govern if your government plan would

play07:55

provide coverage for undocumented

play07:56

immigrants HealthCare coverage Obama

play07:59

care for illegal aliens every single one

play08:03

of them raise their hands and now it's

play08:05

here since California leads the nation

play08:08

in stupidity and unfortunately as

play08:10

California goes so goes the nation this

play08:13

from just last month California becomes

play08:15

the first state to offer health

play08:17

insurance to all undocumented immigrants

play08:21

some people might be saying well does

play08:23

that mean that they can pay for health

play08:25

insurance even though they're

play08:27

undocumented oh wait what's this back in

play08:30

2015 undocumented children were able to

play08:33

join medical that's free government paid

play08:36

health insurance under a Bill signed by

play08:39

then Governor Jerry Brown in 2019 Gavin

play08:42

Nome signed into law an expansion of

play08:45

full scope medical access for young

play08:48

adults aged 19 through 25 regardless of

play08:51

citizenship or immigration status okay

play08:55

this is like the free health care for

play08:57

those who can't afford health insurance

play08:59

for those who are on welfare and now

play09:02

illegal aliens the final expansion which

play09:04

went into effect on January 1st made

play09:07

approximately 700,000 undocumented

play09:10

residents they're calling them they're

play09:13

the undocumented residents the future

play09:15

Democrats and of course 700,000 is

play09:17

probably half of the actual number so

play09:20

one and a half million illegal aliens

play09:22

aged 26 to 49 now eligible for full

play09:25

coverage in California we believe

play09:27

everyone deserves access to Quality

play09:29

Affordable Health Care coverage

play09:31

regardless of income or immigration

play09:34

status says Nome and don't worry

play09:36

Californians it's only going to cost us

play09:39

$65 billion dollar a year to pay for

play09:43

them but it wasn't that long ago that

play09:44

Democrats sounded very different about

play09:47

illegal immigration they actually

play09:49

sounded like Americans we all agree on

play09:52

the need to better secure the border and

play09:55

to punish employers who choose to hire

play09:58

illegal immigrants you know we are a

play10:01

generous and welcoming people here in

play10:02

the United States but those who enter

play10:04

the country illegally and those who

play10:06

employ them disrespect the rule of law

play10:09

uh and they are showing disregard for

play10:13

those who are following the law Chuck

play10:15

Schumer the most powerful Democrat

play10:17

senator in the country sounded even

play10:19

better people who enter the United

play10:22

States without our permission are

play10:23

illegal aliens and illegal aliens should

play10:26

not be treated the same as people who

play10:28

entered the US Le Al when we use phrases

play10:31

like undocumented workers we convey a

play10:34

message to the American people that

play10:36

their government is not serious about

play10:38

combating illegal

play10:40

immigration which the American people

play10:42

overwhelmingly oppose yes we do and

play10:45

unfortunately there is a reason that all

play10:47

of this is happening that I detail in my

play10:49

new book the war on conservatives which

play10:51

you should order in paperback from

play10:52

Amazon.com or download the ebook from

play10:54

any of the major ebook stores there's a

play10:56

play11:00

on the big Tech platforms and so much

play11:02

more and if you enjoy watching my videos
