Will, that is the doctrine of globalism, which is the big totalitarian threat of the 21st century. Its big advocate is the World Economic Forum at Davos with their totalitarian "Great Reset". Fortunately, a wave of nationalism is sweeping the world to reject that totalitarian nonsense and globalism is in retreat.

Soon we will all be world citizens and you won’t have to worry about immigration. They will just be neighbors.

Let's be honest on the semantics regarding "Immigration."

In all reality, which is the world I know and govern in, there is Immigration, and there are Illegal Aliens. It is purposefully wrong to use improper words to describe this crisis because: Immigration is legal; Illegal Aliens are illegal, or Illegals if one wishes to use the proper descriptor of person.

Using the improper words confuses children and some bystanders, and while children can not vote dim witted bystanders can, and the Democratic Socialist party needs as many dim witted constituents as they can round up to keep a plurality of Americans intellectually impoverished, which has been their general intent.

It is insulting to REAL immigrants, those who obey the law, the use that term for illegal alien lawbreakers, as this Bill Lee dude does. The far left likes to call them "undocumented immigrants" but that is a contradiction in terms. It is akin to calling a street corner drug dealer an "unlicensed pharmacist". Those under Biden who let millions of them in need to be prosectuted and jailed, starting with Mayorkas.

There is a term for those who want "to share in the prosperity of America" with lawbreakers who are illegally in our country. That term is SOCIALIST.

The influx of illegal aliens has contributed a lot to depressing the wages of our own citizens and driving up the housing costs of our own citizens. That has happened in all western countries where the illegal alien moochers have flooded in.

Any honest foreigner would apply to legally immigrate, not sneak across our border. Those Biden let in have included foreigners on the terrorist watch list and also members of multiple violent criminal gangs like MS13 and Tren de Aragua. A rise in illegal immigration in any western country is quickly followed by a rise in crime.

Read the polls, Bill Lee. Americans do not want these moochers in our country.

I am surprised to see a defense of Biden's awful open borders policies presented on the BO. Legal immigrants, the only ones lawfully defined as "immigrants" have to go through extensive vetting and medical testing in their home countries before they are approved to come to America. There are limited slots and in some countries they are difficult to get. These are the TRUE immigrants, in the mold of those who built America, not the illegal aliens who thumb their noses at our immigration laws and take it upon themselves to illegally crash our borders. These are different groups which should be treasted differently.

A legal immigrant has to have an American sponsor to sign an affidavit of support to provide the needs of the immigrant if he or she is unable to do so for themselves. An illegal alien, on the other hand is a freeloader who leans on the American taxpayer to subsidize him or her.

Freeloading illegal aliens cost Americans in a lot of ways other than just through taxes. Our medical costs have skyrocketed due to illegal alien freeloaders who do not pay their bills, and the hospital losses are pushed onto paying patients. That jacks up our medical bills and our health insurance premiums.

Germany is a good example of the enormous cost of these illegal alien migrants, Illegal alien "asylum seekers" now account for 63% of German welfare spending. And remember when FEMA had no funds for hurricane relief last year? The Biden regime had spent that FEMA money on illegal aliens and that is why it was not there for hurricane relief.

What part of "illegal" do you not understand, Bill Lee?

What poppycock. America is NOT the world's welfare state and should not try to be. Did this post get misdirected from the "Daily Worker"? Lee does not seem to grasp that "immigrant" is clearly defined in federal law as only applying to those who apply properly to come to America, are vetted and approved before they arrive. The term does NOT apply to those who arrogantly take the law into their own hands and sneak into the country. The correct definition of those in federal law is "ILLEGAL ALIEN". These lawbreakers need to be rounded up and send home. If we get more immigrants, there is a long waiting list of those honest and honorable applicants who are trying to do it the right way. It is immoral to let the linejumpers in ahead of them. The linejumpers need a quick deportation.

Oh, and "asylum" is mostly a fraud. People claim it when they know they are not entitled to it to get a foot in the door. That fraud needs to be stopped.

Will Simmons, you landed on what I am trying to say. Charity is a virtue.

I am deeply curious as to why the Non Patriot Left are so intractable on the issue of Illegal Aliens remaining in OUR Republic, after creating the Invasion of the Southern Border by Executive Order of Non Patriot President Biden, a pathetic Democratic Socialist man, whose nature is of great treason against our Good People.

Curiosity solved, I am just now reminded why: The Non Patriot Left intended from the onset to entice a new voting block of Illegals to invade our borders; to vote them illegally, with the firm intent to steal yet more elections by doing what they do best ... cheat, and cheat again, while hating the Rule of Law of this Constitutional Republic.

According to the British media, the DOGE committees set up by the UK's Reform Party in the ten local governments it won absolute control of, they have already identified over 40 million pounds sterling of fraud and waste related to climate alarmism in local government budgets, and although the numbers haven't been totaled up yet, it appears they are likely to come up with just as much related to illegal immigration. They have found a lot of outrageous local government spending on illegal aliens.

Where Reform has to work with the Conservative Party for control of a number of other local governments, the process of setting up DOGE committees has been slower, but there is a lot of potential there, too.

Hunter is just one sorry piece of the criminal puzzle of the most corrupt administration in the history of these United States - the Administration of Idiot President Joseph R. Biden ... The titular head of the Biden Crime Family.

Conservative Voter: Your summary in estimation could be the case on all counts; however, in the final analysis, the Center-Left /Left Coalition ("Gang of 4") would have been far better off to have voted in unanimous consent for DOGE for Beaufort County Government.

My 2nd option - DOGE for Beaufort County Governments - may be a bit more politically unwieldy for them to handle as conveniently as they have become accustomed to. DOGE for Beaufort county Governments is a real entity that began in formation on Wednesday, July 9, 2025, and has an obligation to serve from 6 of the 7 committee members, with a big handful of Beaufort County's best governing minds serving in reserve as is needed.
