This is a BIG one, yes. During the entire Biden administration, our Immigrations and Customs Enforcement halted ALL deportations. An illegal alien could have murdered a guy in Maine and NOT been deported. I’m pretty sure this happened at least once, possibly more.
In simple terms, he just stopped enforcing immigration law, which is a major responsibility of the executive branch. More impactful than merely not deporting was the opening of our border, which enabled many, many people to be trafficked into the United States.
Absolutely not. This idea isn’t on the table at all. Birthright citizenship is being challenged in the courts, and I think it is overdue. It is a concept that wasn’t that big of a deal in the grand scheme of things, until Democrats played their hand at flooding the country to entrench one party rule.
That may be part of it yes, but in general, we still want legal immigrants.
This is the correct question to ask and the answer is a resounding NO. What Maine experienced isn’t a sudden influx of people who wanted to move here to learn the language and carve out a life on their own.
Nearly all of our recent arrivals were transported here by tax dollars through NGO’s/nonprofits that receive them, then set up on comprehensive state benefits through both the State of Maine and a VAST constellation of non-profit businesses, nearly all of whom were funded with tax dollars.
Human trafficking and subverting the system of elections is NOT at all the same as immigration as we’ve always known it. It is NOT immigration, it was the most cynical and dishonest political ploy in American history.
Meanwhile, State of Maine has removed any element of process security from our system of elections. A tourist from Finland visiting Lewiston next November could easily cast a vote in our elections.
The important thing to understand about Maine is that we have same day voter registration with zero documentation needed. None at all. If you and your woman came to visit and your woman didn’t speak English, you could serve as a translator to help her through the short process.
You can go to the registration table, request an affidavit, give a name, any name is fine, and any in-district address, including one of our low-barrier homeless shelters, and four digits you say are the last four of your social security number.
You can now cast a vote in both Maine and Federal elections in Lewiston, and no mechanism exists by which this vote could be detected as fraudulent.
Make no mistake about it, the USA’s election of Donald Trump has immediately halted the human trafficking effort to bring these people to Maine.
Other states will have variations on this idea and how it is achieved, but the basic idea is the same. A complete subversion of the concept of citizenship that NONE of the Democrats campaigned on, all while calling anyone who objects racist, anti-immigrant KKK fascists.
We dodged a HUGE bullet.
