(ThyBlackMan.com) There are clear established laws in the United States regarding illegal immigration, legal migration, visitors on visas – of any sort – and most definitely laws on illegals working in the United States. I’m not going to detail or list out what they are – you as a fully-grown adult citizen or not, know what they are – or you should have a general idea at minimum.
The idea that the Biden administration is exploring and prospecting the idea of giving over 400K illegally immigrated Venezuelans – and those likely from other countries – work permits, and other associated benefit(s) packages spells out two things to me – and should to you – DELIRICITON of DUTY and FLAGRANT IGNORANCE of the LAW! One of the primary roles and responsibilities of the Executive branch is to enforce the laws of the United States, not usurp them.
But let’s turn our attention to the grander scheme of things afoot. Have you ever heard of the Tammany Hall Machine? How about William “Boss” Tweed? These playbooks never died and when you hear terms like “The Great Replacement” or the “Extinguishment of the American Identity”, these are not said or discussed in hyperbole or out of the realm of conspiracy theories – these are very real phenomena that is occurring before our very eyes.
The Democratic party of the United States has held a long-held belief that to have power and to maintain that power, they must subvert, pervert, and subjugate socioeconomic issues to divide and conquer the more vulnerable segments of society. Is it not a wonder why God, Family, and Country is not a central theme of their platform or their talking points – ever? Racial issues (now that literally everything is racist), LBGTQ+ – specifically the “Trans Movement”, Abortion rights, Gun Control, Anti-Police, CRT, and virtually everything that goes against traditional American values pre-modernism era is now under attack.
Postmodernism era that we are in now ushered in by the Democrats ignores the realities that have came to fruition from predictions of having out-of-control policies with little to no balance. Evidence of these alternate universes that has now permeated our society is the abandonment of millions of American citizens who need necessities. Homelessness is now rampant, US Veterans are still suffering and committing suicide at exponential numbers, mental illness has become normalized because resources to address it have been depleted or diverted, and then we have Ukraine that is our pseudo-US territory.
The purveyors of the American crises are only complicit in these issues because of two primal reasons:
1.) They are paid to push these agendas and ideologies.
2.) They have a great disdain of the United States and want to see it fall. There’s literally no other way to look at it. Either you are complicit or ignorant of what is going on. Silence is compliance – PERIOD. Republicans are no better in combating these issues. Many talk a good game then sit on the bench when it’s time to put boots on ground or put pen to paper. This very attitude is their part of their downfall in losing support Post-Reconstruction Era and during the Civil Rights Era (again). Most Republicans take the mantra “turn the other cheek” a little too literally.
What Americans need to understand is that immigration to the US isn’t bad. It’s actually a great thing. But look at this from a micro vs macro mindset. Would you take the hinges off and remove the front door and go to bed, giving free reign to whoever from wherever to enter your home unvetted, unabetted, and enjoy the fruits of your labor with no questions asked? Our border has the hinges off, and the doors removed for any one from everywhere to come in while we sleep to enjoy the fruits of our labor unvetted, unabetted, with no questions asked – except “where would you like to go?” You stand to gain more as an illegal immigrant than being an American citizen. As a citizen, I never thought I’d live to utter those words.
To immigrants / migrants: It’s ok to come. But come legally. Respect our country. Respect our citizens. Respect our culture. Respect our way of life. To our elected officials: Respect our Constitution. Respect the position that you have the luxury to hold because of your constituents. Respect our rights. Respect, honor, and enforce OUR LAWS, and most importantly – RESPECT the fact that you serve at the pleasure of the American people – WHEREEVER YOU ARE!

Absolutely one of the best articles I’ve read on this issue. Thank you.
As an American citizen, thank you for this article. I agree with silence is being complicit in the wrong being forced upon citizens by the corrupt supposed leaders.
My Great-grandfather immigrated to the US in 1891, legally, to live in freedom. It now looks as if our supposed leaders are trying to subjugate us.
It is time for us to demand our leaders listen to us, or it is time to send them packing.
Absolutely the best article that I have had the opportunity to read. You have presented the facts without any incorrect information. My parents both were legal immigrants. I am appalled by the actions of the current Presidental administration in the acceptance of millions of undocumented Illegal immigrants into our country. I was raised to stand for FAMILY, GOD, AND COUNTRY. I am disgusted that the actions of the current administration are undermining the needs of the legal citizens of our country. Homelessness, Veterans Assistance, Childrens Issues and Senior Citizens Issues are being severely affected by the actions of this administration. Our economy is in the worst it has been in ages. It is my intent to share this article with everyone that I know because it is a must read. Thank you for sharing this article with us.
This poem is written at the base of the Statute of Liberty: The New Colossus
written by Emma Lazarus;
Not like the brazen giant of Greek fame,With conquering limbs astride from land to land;Here at our sea-washed, sunset gates shall stand a mighty woman with a torch, whose flames the imprisoned lightning, and her name Mother of Exiles. From her beacon hand glows world-wide welcome; her mild eyes command The air-bridged harbor that twin cities frame.“Keep, ancient lands, your storied pomp!” cries she with silent lips. “Give me your tired, your poor,Your huddled masses yearning to breathe free,the wretched refuse of your teeming shore.Send these, the homeless, tempest-tost to me,I lift my lamp beside the golden door!”America now has them in large numbers,now what are you going to do with them ? As we said frequently during the sixties here in America,” America needs to peep itself .” Are we doing what we said we would do ?
Actually, there are several solutions to these problems and the only thing standing in the way of implementation is the constant noncooperation between both parties. Honestly, The Supreme Court should issue a verdict that they all be removed from office for dereliction of duty. Anyway, the way to handle the immigrants is to immediately enlist them into our armed services if they are not deemed a national security risk. Secondly, we need to restart the draft and get these feral children off the street and into o to a path that leads to a better life lastly as far as homelessness in this country is concerned our local, state, and federal governments have the authority to implement eminent domain for empty properties which can then be brought up to close and people placed there until additional housing can be provided. So many malls and large retail stores in our area have been leveled and not replacing them as a total waste but the issue is that no one wants the homeless in their neighborhoods. We have ordinances here that strictly forbid the hoping of any homeless shelters or facilities with the exception of natural disasters. Even FEMA could provide temporary housing for thousands of Americans but the bottom line is that if it doesn’t line the pockets of our officials they just don’t care.
This article was composed with thought, respect and consideration. It disturbs me and should disturb All Americans that the ethnicity, social, economic, political divisions are artificially enhanced to the present degree it is. I have no problem with migration when it is done legally and properly. I don’t even have a problem with someone having a different point of view than me. However, I will not Allow anyone to disregard my opinion by labeling in an unfavorable light to one of the above divisions. It is a true tactic to divide and conquer.
Finally, an article worth reading. My family migrated in the USA in early 60’s. However, we entered legally and waited at least 10 years for our papers to be processed while we live in our home country before migrating to USA. We worked hard so we can fulfill our goal to be successful in this country. I don’t understand why our politicians can justify people from different countries can enter the United States illegally and provide them with money, place to live, etc. when we have American citizens that are living in poverty and homelessness. The ideology of how the country should be ruled based on Christian values are gone.
It’s a shame that more “Americans” cannot see the division that our government has fomented among our citizenry. It doesn’t matter if you claim to be an R or a D, identity politics has been a bane to our society, and we are reaping the fruits of those labors. We have focused solely on a federal level and neglected our duties at home, in our communities, and within our states. We have stood by while the family is dismantled, while fathers and men our emasculated, and our women demeaned and denigrated to the point that a man is better at being a woman than a woman is. Is it any wonder that when you remove Yahweh from the soul of the nation that you invite the judgment reserved for the wicked upon the whole of the people. We live in trying times, but for the grace of God go I.
We were all immigrants at one time or other. The only difference is past immigrants were vetted properly and allowed time to assimilate before opening up the borders to let more immigrants in. That way even though we all were from countries, we were united because we lived, defended and espoused the American principles. I never thought I’d see the day where I saw such disarray and betrayal of people who live in this beautiful and once free country. The gas lighting we hear from our elites is disgusting to say the least. We see the open borders, the unvetting, the high crime, the jobs stolen, etc. and yet we’re told over and over again that it’s not happening. We’ve been screaming for years to help our homeless, vets, elderly, disabled, and vulnerable minors.
What is their response? Millions of unvetted illegal migrants flooding our cities, being flown and bussed in as well and coming through a porous border, giving them free legal counsel, free food, free shelter, licenses, benefits that the regular American has never had access to. And then if you complain, their answer is you’re a racist, xenophobic, ungrateful, yada yada yada – you know the drill. It’s time for EVERY LEGAL AMERICAN to stand together and fight this evil. Im all in for Trump – for all the rhetoric against him, we had a few great years under his leadership. If anything I do believe he loves this country and wants to defend it.
Did Lady Liberty mean we must allow criminals, murderers and leaches into our country?
The cause of everything that has failed in our beautiful country is oversight. Guess what the highest entity in that position is. Our executive branch.
Our middle class is continually set up to pay the most to receive the least.
How could it be any different when all the laws and rules are made by lawyers for their own gain.
What if just once we all don’t vote any lawyers in.?
Excellent article. So glad I read it. I also feel that much was said between the lines, you know. America was made by immigrants – but it seems to me that becoming a citizen of the United States, someone who came here because they wanted to live honorably and with pride – is no longer true. The nation is flooded with people who came here to use America. They are not and will not be loyal to America. Someone paid for them to get here. My tax dollars???!!! How did these people come up with thousands of dollars -thousands. Wish I had that kind of money. Who paid for them to travel here?! With major expectations on top of it all! I have known a few people, good people, who came to the U.S., lived well, worked hard, raised families here – whose loyalty remained for their country of origin. I’ve known others, also good people who went through hell to get here and become citizens, legally, and live well, with honor and pride, to make sure that America never finds them wanting. Now the country is overflowing with those who hate America, BIG HATE, and want nothing less than to tear it all down. People denounce Christ and praise Osama ben Laden. Have you noticed how dirty everything is? Stores, restaurants, streets. We’ve sold out to those who have no idea what standards are. Can we recover from the shameful dismantling, the obscene destruction of America? Death will find me long before the days of reckoning.

Well written and well said.
JB is a uniter. Not in a good way. Somehow I appreciate the policies (overall) of both President Obama and President Trump at the same time. There are things for the two latter that I disagreed with (Trump – extending COVID quarantine, sometimes his language. Obama, some of his policies. He sounded good as an orator at first. Over time, he said alot that sounded scholarly, but in the end I did not know what the point or plan was). JB- do not follow his logic, the second half of the speech he bounced from topic to topic, he cited a bill that All Americans voted against, he has us in two wars overseas. He told us what he was going to do last night, but that is what he said before. Wants to “buy America” but proposed a 21% corporate tax then later a 25% corporate tax. That gets passed on to the consumer. Two uear $400/mo incentive to purchase a new home (which a bit earlier he said were not available) is a trap- how do the people who cannot afford that extra pay a mortgage after 2 years. They don’t. They go bankrupt. Homes open up- wallah. At the end of the 4th year there are all those affordable homes. We are going to renovate homes to make them more affordable? Generally, if you make them nicer the demand is higher. That only works if the renovation is cheaper that starting from scratch and only works if building materials remain higher. Which means, the if inflation is O, what we are paying for goods is higher than when he took office. There was so much more there. I was really hopeful he could bring us back to a temperate position. He light the match.
Joe Biden has proven he is as illegal as his immigration policies and structure he has built to completely strip America from scene of this world to just another uniformed rich ran NATO that will and is destroying this world at a rate so mast that only the Rich and Powerful can prevail. Like you and your writing JB made so many counter points to his own speech I didn’t understand where he was at in his speech much less where he is going!! This nation like this world is overpopulated and war seems to always be one answer to deflating the population to of the U.S. We don’t send men and women to war to fight and win we send men and women to war to spare the women and children at the cost of our men and women live this is a fact!!
We now bring men, women, and children to replace our workforce and lower wages to purchase lower houses built on lower wager earners from an illegal status. WHO WINS POLOTICIANS, LEGALL SYSTEMS, UNIONS, ALL THOSE IN POWER WILL REMAIN AS IN ROME ONLY THE POOR SHALL PAY AND DIE AT THIS MADNESS. WHAT REALLY MAKES THIS MADNESS SO HARD TO UNDERSTAND A GOVERNEMEN BY THE PEOPLE, OF THE PEOPLE AND FOR THE PEOPLE. 335 MILLION LEGAL PEOPLE BEING RULED BY THE SAME CLANISH GROUP OF HARVARD AND EVERY IVY LEAGUE SCHOOL AND KINSHIP OF THOSE IN POWER WHO KNOW ABSOLUTELY NOTHING OF THE PEOLPE IT IS VOTED IN TO SERVE. WHY THE PEOPLE JUST DON’T GET IT.
I could not have said it better. Meanwhile, we are taking American tax dollars and throwing them to fight wars abroad, protect foreign borders. Those dollars could have been used for homeless Vets, Veteran Mental health, infrastructure that every admin. campaigns to fix but they never do, and procure healthier food for all Americans. Now, the current admin. takes it one step further, displace the American homeless, give illegals who we do no know who they are more than our Srs. What is the money trail? Why are they destroying us?
As an Immigrant myself, legal mind you, I am very glad to hear what was said in this article. It’s a crying shame that people who made this country, black, white, brown, Asian and everyone else who worked, paid, obeyed the law, led a Christian principle live and kept their nose clean, is being pushed aside for illegal votes.
For too long, the Democrats have been able to spoon-feed people, at best half-truths, as worst, outright lies. And so, so many from every spectrum of the population, regurgitated it and sneered at the ones who did not buy into it as being uneducated idiots, supremist and racists, etc..
Well, I didn’t buy into it and I’m neither one of the things they accuse me of; I just use what God gave me, a brain!
AGREE AGREE AGREE, NOW WHAT CAN WE ALL DO AS AMERICANS??? HOPE WE ARE NOT EO LATE TO STOP THIS MADNESS. i AM GLAD TO SEE THAT i AM NOT ALONE IN THIS THINKING.
Black, Hispanic, and Asian Americans are turning more and more towards the Republican party, so the Dems are losing those groups who they knew they could count on for the last many decades. What you described here, that we all see happening, is the Democrat party assembling a new base that will carry them for the next many decades; reliable voters who will be dependent on the Dems to keep the gravy train moving their way. Several states are providing driver’s licenses and work permits to these newly arrived immigrants which is a big step towards them having the right to vote. It won’t be long before Chuck Schumer stands before the Senate and declares, as his voice chokes with emotion, that it’s only right that these ten million new Americans be given full citizenship.
That, my friend, will be the end of the America we have known and in short order will not be recognizable.
mmmm. That sounds good but its counter to reality.
Immigrant Hispanics do not have a historic ethnic connection to a political party, do not involve themselves with politics and have their own structure and support system.
You find this out by talking to them. Politicians find out about this through research. SPECIFICALLY, through studies by sociologists.
Your concepts are based on White American concepts of linear reductive logic. Meaning an assertion based on self externalized concepts of what you would do with only limited information and overlapping it with worst case scenarios and what you have been told by pundits etc
YES, the Dems NEED individuals beholden to them to keep relevant and keep money/power. But historically the conversion of Hispanics have been bad and we actually see WHEN being involved, they tend to lean mid/Red
Those other ethnic shifts are based upon greater economic standing although, again, Asians tended to stay out of politics having their own social systems as immigrants.
If conservatives were honest and truly cared they would spend more time working on the ideals of their base… but they DO NOT and care about getting into power IF they do not share the terrible ideas of the base.
Trump is a perfect example. He’s not racist, hes an elitist. But he WILL NOT do anything to upset the base because he wants their vote.
Again, the majority creating its own issues which will not allow reversals and moving forward as a whole
JUST the way BOTH sides want it.
You’ve raised several valid points that add complexity to the discussion, and I appreciate your insights based on personal experience and knowledge of sociological studies. The idea that immigrants, particularly Hispanic and Asian communities, often maintain their own social structures and may be less likely to engage with traditional American political parties challenges the notion of a straightforward, linear transition into the U.S. political landscape.
It’s important to acknowledge that each individual and community has its own unique experiences, motivations, and values that shape their political leanings. Your assertion that politicians should focus on the needs and concerns of their constituents, rather than solely on winning votes, is a crucial point that should be at the heart of any functioning democracy.
In terms of finding a way forward, it seems that a more nuanced approach maybe needed, one that recognizes the diversity of immigrant experiences and fosters dialogue and understanding between different communities.
