As President Trump continues to win on immigration, the left has brought back one of their greatest hits, 'America was founded by immigrants'.
"It is a very well worn cliche" said Jessica Vaughan with the Center for Immigration Studies, "But it's also true that Americans want to have an immigration policy that serves the national interest."
That's why there are immigration laws in the U.S. that were created by Congress. Unfortunately, the Biden administration chose to simply ignore them, over the last four years.
"We've had an experiment in open borders for the last four years under the Biden polices, and that did not work out well" Vaughan told KTRH, "It's not ok to simply shut off debate, or accuse people of being anti-immigrant simply for being for a reasonable immigration policy that does not disadvantage Americans."
But the Democrats want no part of that. They want a wide open border, which leads to more voters, more power, and more control. That's why they continue to say 'America is immigrants' as they continue to support Kilmar Abrego Garcia, even after his alleged human trafficking.
"This phrase has been used for a long time by the left to try to cut off any discussion about limiting immigration" noted Vaughan, "And Americans do not want to have so much immigration that it becomes too costly, or a threat to our national security."
As reporter Brianna Lyman noted for The Federalist, the left’s favorite immigration lie is being used to destroy America.
