Immigration issues have been in the political forefront of the nation for many years. Under President Obama and Vice President Biden, illegal immigration grew to a peak, and cages were needed to house the children separated from their parents. When President Trump was elected, his agenda was to get the problem under control and end this illegal invasion of our country.
Mexico’s refusal or lack of interest in controlling its border with the U.S. deliberately violates our sovereignty and is a de facto state of war with the United States. Mexico and Central American states deliberately send to the U.S. their people and drug dealers for their financial benefit. Violations of our borders by illegal immigrants threaten our national security and the health of our citizens. Many illegal immigrants are terrorist sympathizers, and others carry diseases from countries where health codes are not enforced.
Unless our borders are “iron curtains” with effective walls, immigration reform is a waste of time and represents political posturing used by the Democrats to curry favor with the Mexican illegal immigrants for their future votes after they have received amnesty. In the meantime, even more illegal immigrants will attempt to cross the porous border to receive such opportunities in the U.S. that are not available in Mexico.
