As violent riots by the far-left and illegal immigrants spread from Los Angeles to more American cities, it’s plain the open-borders era in America is over. Donald Trump was swept back into office on a super-majority for many reasons, but chief among them was his promise to close the border and deport the millions of illegals who’ve invaded the United States on the Democrats’ watch.
Mass deportation was already President Trump’s far-and-away most popular policy. The sight of illegal immigrants rioting, burning police cars, shooting at police and burning American flags while flying Mexican ones is hardly likely to change Americans’ minds. Which makes it odd that the already-tanking Democrats have chosen this hill to die on.
Even more puzzling is a Democrat state politician openly admitting to being in America illegally.
A Minnesota State lawmaker told her colleagues on Monday that she is in the US illegally, as is her family, and have been since fleeing Vietnam after the Vietnam War.
Rep Kaohly Vang Her attended a special session of the Minnesota Legislature convened by Gov Tim Walz on Monday, where lawmakers were debating about modifying MinnesotaCare eligibility for undocumented adult immigrants.
Call them what they are: illegal. Never, ever, let the left set the linguistic rules. Instead, give them the rope to hang themselves, such as with extraordinary admissions like this:
While arguments were being made, Her used the opportunity to share the story of how she arrived in the US, telling her colleagues that she is an illegal immigrant.
Her family weren’t entitled to refugee status in the US, she says. So they lied on their paperwork.
They were able to find a way by fudging the paperwork, to get to the US […] “And so, I am illegal in this country” […]
Her’s family was “smarter” in how they came to the US, she said, although they broke the laws to get into the country.
Perhaps belatedly realising that bragging about being an illegal immigrant isn’t perhaps the smartest thing to do, Her quickly backtracked.
She later clarified after her floor speech that she and her parents are US citizens.
The Democratic lawmaker told Newsweek her parents took their citizenship test and that she became a citizen as a minor when she was in middle school.
Here’s the thing, though: were they entitled to? A person can apply for US citizenship if they have been granted permanent residence. In the USA a person illegally present can only become a permanent resident if: they apply for asylum status within one year of entry, they entered with inspection and overstayed a visa, are married to a US citizen.
If Her and her family were, as she boasts, in the US by fraudulent means, does it follow that their citizenship is also fraudulent? That will be an interesting one for US Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) to look into.
Dustin Grage, a columnist at the conservative media outlet Townhall, reacted to Her’s comments, writing on X: “Now that’s bold.”
Grage also tagged ICE in his X post.
Let’s see if this ends as well as it did for the tranny who bragged on social media how he’d fraudulently obtained a ‘female’ driver’s licence in Florida.
