Americans have had enough — and who can blame them? After the Biden administration swung the border gates wide open and allowed more than 10 million entrants, including an estimated 500,000 criminals, even Democrats are struggling to defend the chaos they helped create. Shocking, I know.
The message from Biden’s team was loud and clear: few deportations, barely any ICE activity, and essentially no real border. Naturally, the world’s poor, sick, law-abiding, criminal, young, and old all heard the same thing: “Come on in. No questions asked.” Deterrence? Legality? Those were apparently outdated concepts—relics from the days when America actually expected laws to mean something.
And yet, during the government-driven lockdown hysteria, 8,000 to 8,500 U.S. soldiers were expelled for refusing the experimental mRNA vaccine, while state employees nationwide were losing their jobs over mandates. Illegal aliens, however? No vaccines, no mandates, no questions. They simply walked in—because under Biden, they quickly figured out they belonged to a protected, privileged class. How convenient.
Between 2021 and 2025, the border didn’t just weaken—it vanished. There were no background checks, no health screenings, no identification procedures for what became the largest mass entry in any four-year period in U.S. history. No one knew why, though everyone had theories—none flattering.
Some wondered whether Biden’s handlers were trying to expand the welfare state by importing millions of future dependents. Others thought it was starry-eyed idealism. Or perhaps it was an effort to manufacture new voting blocs to replace a Democratic Party running dangerously low on enthusiasm. And of course, the DEI crowd couldn’t resist pushing the idea that “oppressed” newcomers needed to outnumber the so-called “white oppressors.” Nothing says unity like racial arithmetic.
The left stayed suspiciously quiet as the border disintegrated and millions dispersed across the nation. But now, when authorities try—just barely—to restore legality, suddenly Democrats demand that every one of the 10 million illegal entrants be processed individually before being sent home. How Orwellian. They weren’t worried about “process” when they were waving everyone in.
Unsurprisingly, this massive nullification of immigration law has triggered backlash not only against illegal immigration but increasingly against legal immigration as well. And with frustration boiling over, the entire system may soon grind to a halt.
Why? For one, America now hosts 50 to 55 million foreign-born residents, about 16% of the population — levels never seen before. Second, the once-celebrated melting pot, based on assimilation and civic unity, is under full-scale attack. DEI ideology now insists Americans are divided between white oppressors and everyone else—just what you need when assimilation is already on life support.
If millions of newcomers are encouraged to center their identity around grievance and tribal affiliation rather than becoming fully American, why would they feel obligated to follow American customs or laws? And so, we see the rise of “tribal immigration.”
The predictable result? In Minnesota, Somali immigrants—both legal and illegal—carried out what appears to be a multi-billion-dollar welfare fraud scheme, potentially the largest in U.S. history. Their political cheerleaders, like Rep. Ilhan Omar (who graciously calls the U.S. “one of the worst countries in the world”), Governor Tim Walz, and Attorney General Keith Ellison, responded not with accountability but with the usual DEI talking points. The more fraud uncovered, the louder the cries of “racism.”
Meanwhile, California managed to issue at least 17,000 commercial driver’s licenses to illegal aliens—many with little driving experience and even less English. Shockingly, America’s freeways have begun to resemble a demolition derby. Who could’ve seen that coming?
Adding to the chaos, the U.S. currently hosts about 1 million foreign students, largely from China, India, and the Middle East. After Oct. 7, many participated in violent, antisemitic campus protests. They declared “no-go zones” for American Jews, cheered for Hamas, and portrayed themselves as victims whenever criticized. They enjoyed America’s freedoms while openly despising the country offering them.
And Americans noticed. After witnessing outrageous welfare fraud, deadly accidents, violent protests, and open contempt from individuals who were welcomed generously, citizens now believe many immigrants see American goodwill as weakness to be exploited rather than generosity to be appreciated.
But despite all the frustration and the damage done, there’s one silver lining: Americans are finally waking up. And once the people are awake, restoring law, order, and a strong, proud, secure America becomes not just possible — but inevitable.
