With utter chaos on the border, and the Biden Administration’s attempt to ram through an omnibus immigration/foreign aid bill, designed to waste billions of dollars more by funding the Ukraine war, while providing Corrupt Demented Imbecile Joe Biden with cover for the border fiasco he created, this week’s offering will be on the subject of asylum.  More specifically, who or what groups are in need of asylum.  We’ll start by defining terms.  Like many words, the word “asylum” has different meanings.  Definition One is “government protection given to people who have been forced to leave their own countries for their safety or because of war.”  This is the type of asylum that’s currently in the news.  I’ll use it in a sentence:  Joe Biden has admitted more than 10 million illegal aliens, many of whom pretend to be seeking asylum.  An equally valid definition of asylum is Definition Two – “a hospital for people with mental illnesses,” a/k/a a lunatic asylum.  I’ll use this one in a sentence:  Any elected official who supports what Joe Biden has done to our border, or who votes for the Senate’s proposed Emergency National Security Supplemental Appropriations Act, belongs in an lunatic asylum.  One useful rule of thumb for evaluating Congressional acts is to assume that the real purpose is not what its title suggests.  A New Jersey appellate court decision I’m fond of once explained that title of a law doesn’t control the plain words of a statute.  “Like the inscription on a tombstone, it serves only to indicate what lies below.”  The Senate bill is no exception.  It does nothing to enhance national security, quite the opposite.  The bill is supposed to cost us $118 billion.  All that money should help the Border Patrol, right?  Wrong!  First of all the so-called border control part of the bill is only $20 billion.  $60 billion goes to Ukraine, to replenish Ukranian Swiss bank accounts.  Israel would get $14 billion.  And whatever the $20 billion in border money is intended to do, it won’t secure our border.  Without this “bipartisan deal,” Biden has let 10 million illegal invaders into the country, then turned them loose.  In 2023 alone, more than 3 million were admitted.  Asylum seekers right?  Well, some claim they are, but it’s time for facts.  To get asylum one must be a refugee, that is, a person:  of special humanitarian concern to the United States; who demonstrates they were persecuted or fear persecution due to race, religion, nationality, etc.; who is not firmly resettled in another country; and is admissible to the United States.  Over 75 % of asylum seekers don’t qualify, but that’s moot today, because Biden is letting millions loose, without knowing whether they’re even admissible, overlooking little things like being terrorists, convicted felons, or carriers of communicable diseases.  Simply put, Biden has admitted millions of invaders, some of whom commit crimes.  Last week 7 invaders beat up 2 NY cops.  They were immediately released from jail, and they showed their gratitude –

And Biden wants to keep letting them in.  Due to the court backlogs, alleged asylum seekers are given court dates 6 or 7 years in the future.  Because we have no idea where they are now, much less in 2030, the odds they will appear in court are practically nil.  It’s all a sick joke on the American citizen who has been relegated to second-class status by Joe Biden.  But the bill fixes all this right?  Wrong!  The bill that Sleepy Joe and the detestable Chuck Schumer claim will secure the border and is needed to provide the President with the power to act, is just another Washington boondoggle.  Ever wonder why funding for Ukraine and Israel is in a border security bill?  It’s what’s called “poison pill legislation.”  You take things that a majority of the Congress want, and package them with things that would never pass if presented by themselves.  You want to help Ukraine and Israel?  Then you have to swallow the poison, or else you get nothing.  The poison in this bill is in the border provisions.  First, Biden needs no legislation to secure the border.  Existing law authorizes the President “to suspend the entry of all aliens or any class of aliens” whose entry he “finds … would be detrimental to the interests of the United States.”  President Trump used this provision to secure the border without Congressional action.  The Supreme Court ruled he had the authority to do so.  On his first day in office, Biden cancelled 89 Trump border directives, and the illegals poured in.  The idea that Biden needs new authority is a lie, what he needs is a pair of balls and the will to do his duty.  He lacks both.  And forget the bullshit stories about how the flood of migrants will be controlled.  Without the bill 3 million invaders in one year right?  Here’s the proposed “fix.”  If the number of invaders exceeds 5,000 a day over a seven day period, Homeland Security would shut the border – “temporarily.”  In 2018, we were told 1,000 a day was a humanitarian crisis.  Now we’re going to legislate a 500% percent greater crisis, and call it a fix?  Plus, who decides if the 5,000 invader limit has been reached?  Mayorkas?  And a “temporary shutdown” could be 8 hours, enough time to replenish the Obama-phones and Target gift cards.  In a word, this is bullshit.  The flood will continue.  What this bill really is, is a can’t lose proposition for Democrats.  If it passes, Democrats get to maintain the flood of invaders, while pissing more money down the Ukrainian rathole, and at the same time telling voters they “fixed” the border mess.  If it fails to pass, Democrats get to try to blame the entire border fiasco on Republicans – “Oh, if only Republicans had voted for the bill, all would have been well; instead they did the bidding of Evil Orange Man.”  And millions will believe this shit.  As this is written, more than 20 Senate Republicans are opposing the bill, and it appears dead -for now.  A Monday Republican conference on the bill led to angry shouting.  House Speaker Johnson has already pronounced the bill “dead on arrival in that Chamber,  “I’ve seen enough.  This bill is even worse than we expected, and won’t come close to ending the border catastrophe the President has created.  As the lead Democrat negotiator proclaimed: Under this legislation, the border never closes.”  Progressive lunatics don’t like it because it doesn’t legalize the Dreamers.  They should take that up with Chuck Schumer, who turned down President Trump’s 2018 offer to legalize 1.6 million Dreamers, in return for real border security.  Sleepy Joe already has said this all or nothing, promising to veto any bill that includes only funds for Israel, without the Ukraine and border boondoggles.  Have it your way Joe, I’ll settle for nothing.  Republican Senators who were planning to support this mess are hearing it from angry voters, and even the bill’s sponsor, Jim Lankford, has suggested he may vote against it.  Maybe he’s having a lucid interval.  Anybody who supports this insult qualifies for asylum, under Definition Number Two.  They should be institutionalized immediately.
