No one is enjoying the slow moving disaster that is striking D.C. in the form of DOGE as much as I am. Seeing the rotten curtains pulled back to expose to normie just how much of the Federal spending apparatus is either a) paying for absolute nonsense here and abroad or b) that no one has any idea where the money is actually going has been delicious. What Musk and his team of autistic accountants are finding is so egregious that normies are being forced to see it and hopefully many of them are also seeing that most of the media and “leadership” in America is angrier at Musk for exposing it than they are about the rampant fraud and waste that is the defining feature of the Federal government. It is all delightful for entertainment purposes.
But….
While that is one of the things Trump ran on, it isn’t THE ISSUE he ran on: securing the border and deporting millions of illegals.
Most people didn’t vote for lower egg prices or finding out if there really is gold in Fort Know, as laudable as those efforts would be.
We voted to get all of these damn illegals the hell out of our country.
Right out of the gate there were a few high profile raids to round up illegals that were especially violent. There were flights to other nations, talk of sending them to Guantanamo and even El Salvador offering to house the violent illegals in their delightful prison system.
Then it seemed to take a back seat and DOGE began to suck up all the oxygen in the room. Elon Musk is a lightning rod, purported to be the wealthiest man in the and someone liberals loved when he was making Teslas. Now that he is associated with Trump, the hatred for Rocket Man Bad is nearly on par with that for Orange Man Bad. With Musk we are seeing what would happen if you gave an autistic 12 year old boy the keys to D.C. and an unlimited supply of Mountain Dew and Pop Rocks.
While I hear a little bit about deportations and recently Tom Homan said that “migrant encounters” were a trickle of what they were: Border czar Tom Homan vows to ‘eradicate’ every criminal migrant from US — as he touts staggering drop in daily encounters, that is only a part of the problem. An important one to be sure but slowing the pace of new entries does nothing to address the fact that we already have tens of millions of illegals living in the U.S. and when they aren’t making tacos or doing a crappy job in construction they are apparently humping like bunnies:
Up to 250,000 children born to illegal migrants in 2023: preliminary report
The Center for Immigration Studies, a non-profit research organization that focuses on immigration, said Friday that based on its preliminary findings, there were between 225,000 to 250,000 U.S. births to illegal immigrants in 2023, which accounts for about 7% of total births in the U.S. that year.
To put the figure into context, the group says those figures are greater than the total number of births in all but two states taken individually.
Furthermore, it appears that more children were born to illegal immigrant parents than to legal noncitizens.
Although not yet available, the group says that the 2024 numbers are likely to be even higher given the surge of illegal immigrants into the country under the Biden administration.
For comparison purposes, nearby Fort Wayne has a population of slightly more than 250,000 and it is the second largest city in Indiana. A quarter million babies born to illegals would be a city that ranks comfortably in the top 100 in the U.S. and that report only covers a single year. This has been going on for decades and the numbers keep increasing. This will be the focus of a future post on the demographic timebomb in American schools.
That isn’t to suggest that DOGE isn’t of critical importance but my mantra is the same as it has been: demographics are destiny. Put another way….
If Trump and Musk slash one trillion in wasteful spending but fail to deport millions of illegals, it won’t have made a bit of difference.
I will go on record again predicting a bloodbath for the GOP in the 2026 midterms. It looks all sunshine and puppy dogs right now but it has been just a month with Trump in office. His rapid fire barrage seems to be keeping Them off-balance right now but that won’t last forever and as the court cases grind the DOGE wheels to a halt, you can be sure that They will have something else up Their little rat sleeves. When They get back in power They will simply reinstitute all the crap DOGE is undoing now and it will be a lot faster to put it back in place than it was to uncover and shut it down.
None of that is to diminish the importance of what DOGE is trying to do. It is important work and decades overdue. Cutting off funding for graduate schools for gay gerbils in Guatemala is great and kneecapping some of these anti-White, mass migration NGOs will help to slow the tide of new illegals but it does very little to rid us of those already here and that is the real problem. It is the old “closing the barn door after the horse is already out” chestnut. The biggest problem isn’t coming north through the Darién Gap and into Mexico heading for the border, it is already here in the form of tens of millions of illegals.
By all means, cut off the funding for NGOs like Jewish Family Service that aid illegals in getting here, crossing the border, manipulating the system to claim “asylum” and then disappearing into the interior of the country. Yes, cut off benefits for illegals like Trump just did, Trump Signs Executive Order Terminating All Federal Taxpayer Benefits Going To Illegal Aliens, that they never should have been getting in the first place. Go even further and ban the children of non-U.S. citizens from attending American schools and start arresting American employers that hire illegals. All that is great and an important part but deportation and remigration must be the priority.
Trump gets distracted by the shiny object too easily and he seems fixated on DOGE and Musk right now. Let Musk do his thing, get serious people like Ron Paul and Thomas Massie to help but push every single day to keep expelling these people from our country. I am not saying deportation to the exclusion of other important work like DOGE and getting the war in Ukraine ended but it has to be the front burner issue, all day every day.
Unless we can turn around the demographic wave and stop the Great Replacement, none of the other stuff will matter. I don’t think we can but at least we ought to put every ounce of effort into turning it back.
Well said. Deportations should be ongoing, massive, relentless. Get the illegals out of here!!!
Self deportation is the key to Trump's plan. When the money dries up and the benefits dry up, America won't look so attractive to illegal immigrants and they will head back to where they came from. This will be less of a drain on the budget than physically deporting them.
If the American people see progress being made, they won't rebel at the ballot box in 2026. They will remember what it was like in 2024 and before.
