The New Colossus

For John, BLUF:  We need a plan regarding immigration.  And not just throwing it over the transom to the President.  Nothing to see here; just move along.

The Comment on ICE:

The Democrats are escalating their push to get rid of the Immigration and Customs Enforcement agency because they do not want the U.S. border to be protected.  I can only assume they want everyone to just walk on in to the U.S., be it Hezbollah, drug cartel honchos, or MS-13.  "Protests have broken out near ICE facilities in New York City, Washington, D.C., and Portland, Ore., in recent days, prompting the agency to put up barriers near entrances or after immigration hearings."

It is like our Progressive Brothers and Sisters think that we should allow the tired, the poor, the huddled masses yearning to breathe free, the wretched refuse of Central America's teeming shore, the homeless and tempest-tost to come and reside here in these United States.  What would that be—Some thirty-two million?

Of course it does raise the question of who would be left in Guatemala, Honduras and Nicaragua to restore those nations to balance and democracy?  Maybe MS-13.

I wonder if this move would help or hurt the efforts to grow the economy and, as Ms Nancy Pelosi likes to point out, raise wages for the working class?

In the mean time, I wonder if this is going to be another long hot Summer.
