Elections have consequences, and never has that reality been clearer than when Joe Biden replaced Donald Trump as commander-in-chief in 2021.
As I highlighted Monday at The Federalist, Joe Biden’s mental incapacity is only half the problem; his failed policies represent an equally devastating indictment of his presidency and now his reelection campaign. President Biden’s “near immediate and absolute reversal” of Trump’s foreign policy turned our world into a chaotic tinderbox, and his reversal of border security shows the same kind of damage — but closer to home.
In the case of border security, the change came quickly, with Biden, in his first 100 days in office, reportedly executing 10 different orders on immigration that directly reversed Trump’s policies.
“I want to make it clear … I’m not making new law; I’m eliminating bad policy,” Biden said when he signed several immigration-related executive orders on Feb. 2, 2021, less than a month into his presidency. “What I’m doing is taking on the issues that — 99 percent of them — that the president — the last president of the United States issued executive orders I felt were very counterproductive to our security, counterproductive to who we are as a country, particularly in the area of immigration.”
Reality soon hit home, as the reversal of Trump’s border policy prompted an unrelenting flood of illegal crossings. To date, U.S. Customs and Border Protection has encountered more than 10 million illegal aliens — so many that even the hard-left Democrat mayor of New York warned that the unchecked stream of illegal aliens would “destroy New York City” and affect every part of it.
The numbers represent only part of the story, however, with Americans feeling firsthand the damage of Biden’s immigration policies. In Chicago, which at its peak saw some 2,000 illegal aliens arrive per week, residents watched as the city spent nearly $300 million in tax dollars to give resources to the illegal border crossers. The crisis was made personal in New York, too, when the mayor commandeered a public high school to shelter illegal aliens, displacing students who were required to stay home and study remotely.
Horrific crimes allegedly committed by illegal aliens — such as the rape and murder of Maryland mom Rachel Morin, the brutal killing of 12-year-old Texan Jocelyn Nungaray, and the murder of Georgia nursing student Laken Riley — give Americans a stark reminder of the real human cost of an open border. While apologists for the Biden administration’s failed immigration policy argue that illegal aliens are actually less likely than Americans to commit violent crimes, that counter ignores the reality that none of those crimes would have occurred had the president secured the border — because none of the murderers would have been in our country.
Statistics also show a strong uptick in illegal crossers with criminal records. In fiscal year 2023, Border Patrol agents arrested more than 35,000 illegal aliens with criminal convictions, including nearly 600 known gang members. That number greatly surpasses the just over 4,200 illegal aliens with criminal histories detained in fiscal year 2019.
Illegal aliens can not vote in American elections. It is in the Constitution. My pocket Constitution, free from Hillsdale College, makes it clear only American citizens have the right to vote. Again, biden violates the Constitution.
This is the action of a dictator.
Study finds immigration to the American South is far outpacing migrant movement into other regions of the U.S.
Let it snow, let it snow, let it snooooow.
What are Robin Ware/Robert L. Peters/JRB Ware/Pedo Peter/idiot Biden’s decisions like? What is the quality of HIS personal decisions? Well, we have a few recent examples.
After the Hur report, Robin Ware/Robert L. Peters/JRB Ware/Pedo Peter/idiot Biden insisted on going forth and proving how sharp and eloquent he was, against his aide’s advice. What happened? He looked like the old, bumbling, mumbling piece of shit we all believe he is.
He insisted on, against all advice, debating Trump. He DEMANDED it. He challenged Trump, “Cmon, man. Make my day.” What happened? Probably the most embarrassing and disastrous single performance by a President… EVER.
Then what? Well, he wanted to go solo against Stephanopoulos to, once and for all, prove he is the mover-shaker his propagandists have been telling us he is. Once again, the results were absolutely predictable and disastrous. He dodged questions, bungled statements and just lied and lied and lied.
It is the job of the President of the United States to make decisions. These are the quality of some of the decisions Robin Ware/Robert L. Peters/JRB Ware/Pedo Peter/idiot Biden makes, along with every decision he has made concerning border security. We are NOT safe and secure.
Next up, joe’s pulling on his “Big Boy Pants,” to wear to his first real press conference where he takes UNSCRIPTED questions.
Well, we’ll see.
Could be just another fake.
I dont worry about scripted questions, its the answers that are funny as all hell, when he can form his words.
People are pouring out of the woodwork now with horror stories of just how bad joe is.

And they all just kept quiet and kept handing over their money, no regard for the explicit danger this puts the nation in.
Exactly. This is not about politics or the November general. It is about the national security of this nation and its citizens. We are past the political aspects. There is a 6 he a day in charge of one of the three branches of government. POTUS is not and has never been a part time job.
This Invasion all plans of the UN the CFR and Soros and his Open Society and the Demon-Rats this has been planed since the UN was Founded
Robin Ware/Robert L. Peters/JRB Ware/Pedo Peter/idiot Biden had to go to bed at the G7 instead of attending the meeting with Germany. THERE’S a leader for you.
Remember CJPearson?
He was a quite young black commentator a few years back.
He’s 21 now and weighs in on why this illegal alien invasion is a reminder (to America’s black men) to vote for Trump.
To quote:
Black men are tired of dutifully doing what they’ve been told.
Because after decades of supporting the Democrat Party – in damn near unanimity, we have begun to ask ourselves and rightfully so: what the hell do we have to show for it?
Under President Biden, our community has felt the brunt of runaway inflation, record high gas prices, and the destruction that progressive policies have waged on urban cities all throughout America.
Eighty percent of Black voters have a negative view of the current economic conditions.
Go to any black church or patronize any black barbershop and the feeling is palpable.
Black men are tired of being used and abused by a political party that doesn’t give a damn about them.
Black men are tired of being treated as second-class citizens – in a country that their ancestors inarguably helped build – by a Democrat Party that would rather roll out the welcome mat to illegal aliens spilling across our border than deliver for the everyday Americans who live within it.
