Most of those "desperate people" are fraudsters lying about their false claims of "asylum" to game the system. They should be treated as the liars that most of them are. They should be polygraphed on their age and asylum claim and then sent back when they flunk the polygraph. Most are military aged males. Many of those who claim to be minors are actually adults lying about their age because they know that, unlike some European countries, nobody will check. The European countries that check have found that the majority, and as high as 90% of those claiming to be "unaccompanied minors" are actually adults lying about their age.

BTW referring to desperate people, women and children included as "parasites" is wrong. Don't believe me? Ask your Pastor at church.

In American elections, DJT off the ballot in Colorado. Sure, its not a done deal but it is encouraging to see it happen. Maybe other states will grow a pair and do the same.

Local election results and national and state polls are extremely encouraging in Germany that the open borders crowd is about to be sent packing, but there is a lot of work, including a lof of deporting that needs to be done to solve the problem that has been created. They ought to copy the new conservative government in Sweden, which has just made accepted deported illegal aliens a condition for any country receiving foreign aid from Sweden.

Absolutely not true.

I have long asked our local Social Services about this impact upon taxpayers due to the Non Patriot Left having long lied to argue that the Illegals are a financial boon to the US economy. I have not heard that from the Non Patriot Left lately, but this often repeated lie of a maxim is what has gotten us to this point where Traitorous President Biden ignores the US Constitution and his oath of office to continue the Non Patriot Left's self-proclaimed Browning of America.

Racist says what?

Own it, Bigot Bob. Your Democrats created Jim Crow as a political power play. Republicans opposed it and voted against it. And don't hit that bottle of Old Crow too hard.

Jim Crow is a prime example of how Democrats will stoop to anything to gain and maintain political power, just as they are trying now with their Stalinesque "lawfare" against President Trump. The Democrats ginned up Jim Crow to use obscene racial hatred they created to regain and maintain power.

Democrat leaders did not suddenly wake up one morning and decide they hated black people. Instead, it was a cold, calculated, and cynical gambit that was totally a political power play. After the end of Reconstruction and those who had fought for southern independence could vote again, politics in North Carolina was a choice between Democrats who had fought for the south or supported that fight and Repubicans, who were Union sympathizers That math worked to give Democrats majorities.

Then the Populist Party came along, without any roots in the War Between the States but more on current economic issues of the working class and small farmers. That mostly ate into the Democrat vote, and when the Populists got together with the Republicans in the fusion campaign of 1896, they beat the Democrats.

The Democrats launched their white supremacy platform for the 1898 legislative election for the purpose of winning back the almost entirely white Populist voters by making the election about race. The Democrats injected white supremacy into that election for one goal, the cut down the Populist vote and bring those voters back to their party. It worked and they regained legislative control.

Then they launched the second part of their scheme to break the back of their major opponent, the Republican Party by suppressing a significant part of its voter base, the black voters. The Democrats did that in 1899 with their newly restored legislative majority by passing election laws that created a literacy test, a poll tax, and a grandfather clause.

Generating racial strife through Jim Crow laws was never really about race with the Democrats. It was about political power. It shows that Democrats will do the most obscene and evil things for political power.

We are seeing the same side of Democrats today with open borders, wokeness, and abuse of courts to attack their political enemies. It is the Democrats who are the threat to democracy and always have been.

I made the mistake of voting for Randy Walker in his primary last time due to all the stuff he put up on Facebook about being absolutely opposed to raising taxes. Randy has been a disappointment on taxes and spending his whole term. I won't make that mistake again. It is thus not terribly surprising that he has joined the far left cancel culture against southern heritage.

I knew what Murphy was in his first primary, and was not fooled at all there. He was a spendthrift in the legislature known as "Medicaid Murphy". He has gone on to be a dud of a congressman who has sold out taxpayers to the establishment. I think I saw he has a Libertarian opponent this time, and if so that is how I will vote. Murphy is not fit to even shine Walter Jones' shoes. Walter was a great congressman, I wish we still had him.
