Next Stop for Illegal Aliens

Something strange is afoot, and if this election cycle does not correct it – expect things to get crazy. More than 3 million illegals entered the US after Biden greenlighted them, two million asylum seekers now released, millions just uncaught. Republican governors are shipping samples north, frustrating New York and Massachusetts. Watch what happens – if reason fails.

If the Biden Administration does not respond to a Republican Congress with policy revisions, we could see a major shift in strategy. Legally, Republican governors – who operate with constitutional authority, not least the 10^th Amendment – have had it.

What has happened is that frustrated border governors have sent a warning shot to Democrats who shrug at what these States are suffering – from an ill-conceived, increasingly dangerous, costly, unlawful, and irresponsible approach to managing immigration.

But things could get worse, courts would be hard-pressed to stop the cascade. So far, Red State anger has been checked by the priority historically given federal authority over immigration, meaning busloads of illegal immigrants continue to be shipped, often at night, all over America.

Local authorities feel a moral obligation to absorb this imposition, even if they disagree with the federal “open door” (or relatively open door) that allows this to happen, again into the millions. Increasingly, charitable organizations and makeshift options are getting tapped out.

A time is coming, signaled by sample drops to New York and Massachusetts, when border State governors and beleaguered mayors who are overwhelmed just say “enough.”

No attempt has been made to socialize, seek consensus, bring border governors, afflicted States and mayors into any kind of bipartisan alignment, as this White House seems convinced that the imposition, a bold assertion of untested executive authority – if they control Congress – wins.

Problem is that America does not work that way. Individuals, towns, cities, and States are where real decisions – big and irreversible – are made. The Federal government, all those well-fitted, well-fed federal employees, work for the “little people,” real people, citizens, you and me.

Brace for what could come next. If the new Congress cannot reverse the irresponsible border policies Democrats are determined to inflict on America, governors and mayors will become more forward leaning. They have rights under the Constitution to protect their citizens and will act.

What could happen? For starters, the trickle of hundreds of illegals sent to Blue States from Red States, overwhelmed by tens or hundreds of thousands of illegals, could become a flood. If two busses can get up Interstate 95 for Maryland, New York, Connecticut, Delaware, and Massachusetts, a thousand can.

Second, those swamped in the Heartland, waking up to find local hotels commandeered by the Federal Government, charities overrun, schools, medical facilities, and criminal justice strained – in short, their homes flooded by federally-dropped illegals – could react the same way.

Not surprising would be a turn to “regifting” the illegals, from Red States and swamped counties – to nearby or further out “Blue” destinations, as the overflow becomes unmanageable.

Nationally, Democrats seem oblivious, not only to what is happening on the border, but what is happening in adjoining states, even in their own, as a result of the unassimilated, uninvited, and increasing number of illegals, who often cannot speak English, have no awareness of civic culture, history, habits, laws, or the American way of life – let alone local culture.

In the end, this policy of “no-policy,” this Biden notion that we serve humanity by violating our own constitutional history, is a dead end. It could end fast, if a new crop of Republican Congressmen curtails the policy by controlling the money, or it could all take a different turn.

Put simply, if it is legal for the Federal Government to invite illegal entry, then release millions into the interior, shipping them to every State in a stealthy, unorthodox array of busses, planes, and trains, then it is legal for border governors to send samples of the onslaught north.

If those samples do not reverse the policy, then they are not only likely to continue, but the dam may burst, creating a more systematic transfer to Blue States. If that happens, and if the policy still remains in place, expect tempers to flare, and many who thought it was just fine to rethink things, as “regifting” of illegals – from State to State and city to city – grows.

Let us hope that this kind of passing the buck, and passing the immigrant buses, does not happen – but it may. Odds grow that it will if no change of policy follows this election. American citizens are patient, kind, and generous, but a point comes when they say “Enough.” That point is approaching. And…if we sink to “regifting” from State to State, some governor will think of another idea – just sending them home. Absent policy consensus, that is where we are headed.
