Truth.
Unfortunately, the blue states would have the military invade the red states and have them kill those who are trying to secede.

RE: Chuck Schumer: “Our ultimate goal” is to give every illegal alien citizenship.
"to all 11 million or however many undocumented that are here."
Sheer insanity.
I realize there are lots of people here illegally who are honest, hard-working, tax-paying people. I know of some. They want to contribute to our society and be proud Americans. I want to be fair and understanding of these illegals. Many of them work hard while citizens born here are lazy and unproductive.
But the mindset Schumer displays ... simply unacceptable. He shows no recognition of 1. the fact these folks came here illegally (regardless of their good intentions and quality contributions); and 2. the fact that many of them are a drain on our economy and culture.

Not as long as the military is under the control of Hegseth and/or remains full of patriots -- now that they've kicked out the trannies, weirdos, etc.

RE: Chuck Schumer: “Our ultimate goal” is to give every illegal alien citizenship.
Have all of the Democrat idiots not been paying attention to what is going on over in Europe, especially in England and France? Those illegals wouldn't care if you gave them citizenship, they would still hate you, your American ways, your religious beliefs, and they'd want you to give them your money. I feel like I'm surrounded by idiots throughout the country these days and their numbers are constantly growing.

You know, we've been warning Europe -- well, pretty much all nations except for Poland -- what they would eventually see.
Now we're watching those warnings play out in real time.
Let's hope the rest of America is watching and decides "not here".
Get them OUT!

RE: Chuck Schumer: “Our ultimate goal” is to give every illegal alien citizenship.
While no fan of Schumer, here's the exact words he said that I personally transcribed from that clip.
Quote:Now more than ever, we’re short of workers. Uh, we have a population that is not reproducing its, uh, on its own with the same level that it used to. The only way we’re gonna have a great future in America is if we welcome and embrace immigrants, the dreamers, and all of them. Cause our ultimate goal is to help the dreamers, but get a path to citizenship for all 11 million or however many undocumented there are here.
Nowhere is he saying that he wants to "replace" American citizens, nor "give" every illegal immigrant citizenship. He also says nothing about the border. He appears to mostly be talking about the so-called "dreamers," in addition to getting a path to citizenship. That's not a necessarily a "gift."

Democrats are not idiots.
They're morons, and they're overeducated morons at that.
The only reason why these people support illegal immigration is because they oppose Trump and the other side. That's all it is.
Maybe this country's best days are truly behind us. We just crossed the 250 year mark. All that's left is the inevitable collapse that we've been accelerating towards over the last 10 years.

Reasons notwithstanding, they know what they are doing and why they want to do it. The bottom line is ... any way you want to slice it they're idiots for doing it because ultimately, it hurts every citizen of this country, including themselves and they are seemingly too stupid to realize it

It doesn't matter - not even a little bit. The illegals being here are not for the ultimate good of the country, just the opposite. They (Somalis) are pretty much destroying Minnesota and robbing the taxpayers (for example) and that is just a small-scale indication of things to come nationwide if this behavior - flooding the country with illegals and allowing them to stay here - remains unchecked. You have no idea how many terrorists came across the border with the hordes of people trekking in during the Sleepy Joe era. To think that probably didn't happen is unconscionable.

I understand your point, Tom. But Schumer did not speak precisely, thus creating confusion.
Yes, there are people here illegally who are contributing to the overall benefit of our society, culture and economy. They are disciplined, hard-working and want to be Americans. We need to at least consider providing them a path to citizenship.
But, and as I interpret it, Schumer suggested all illegals need a path. That's wrong. And that's a fumble on his part as it gives detractors who distrust/dislike even legal immigrants (or who either refuse to acknowledge or can't see that there are illegal immigrants here working hard, paying taxes, etc.) ammunition to attack the Dems and immigrants.
He fumbled (IMO).

Again, I would rarely defend anything he says. He needs to go and certainly should not be the minority leader.

"in addition to getting a path to citizenship"
Your reading comprehension really sucks. I have news for you, there's already a path for citizenship in the USA.
Eligibility Requirements
• Age: Must be at least 18 years old.
• Green Card: Must be a Lawful Permanent Resident (LPR) for at least 5 years (or 3 years if married to a U.S. citizen).
• Residency: Must show continuous residence and physical presence in the U.S. for the required timeframe.
• Character: Must be a person of good moral character.
• Language & Civics: Must speak, read, and write basic English and pass a U.S. history and government civics test.

We don’t need more people. American productivity, aided by massive capital investment and technology, are far outpacing the rest of the world. We are, by far, the most efficient economy on the planet and in history.
Importing workers only serves to suppress wages, destroying the middle class. As I have posted before, destruction of the middle class is necessary for the acceptance of socialism or dictatorial control. The middle class doesn’t need the government so they will vote to restrict its power. The rich want the power and the poor need the government.
Don’t think of it as replacement if you don’t like that word. Think of it as dilution. You just need to dilute enough for 51% then you can crush the rest with acquired power.
The real problem with the left is the misguided belief that people in power want to help them and “do good” for the people. That want control. They don’t care what it requires to get that control or what harm it causes to the lowly masses.

RE: Chuck Schumer: “Our ultimate goal” is to give every illegal alien citizenship.
I would suspect that if all the Hispanics who are living illegally in Nashville were to, in one fell swoop, be deported ... various industries within the city (both construction and hospitality, in particular) would be in significant trouble.
That is not to say that we don't need to address the serious problem of illegal immigration. Folks here illegally are an insult to those immigrants who came here through the correct (and time-consuming) process.
But the wheels of commerce turn in this great nation, in part, because of the illegals who work hard.
Now, as to those illegals not working, committing crime, etc. ... frontier justice is necessary.
