Historians largely subscribe to the Push-Pull Theory of Immigration. It’s simple: people leave their homes because some factors combine to push them out. Then of course they seek a better place. So the solution to unwanted migration is either to become less attractive (as happened during the pandemic year) or try to address the root causes.
The latter takes time. Meanwhile, cynical conservatives will blather away about this since they have no positive ideas to offer.
This is obscene. Congress was attacked by an easily identifiable mob of insurrectionists, unless this is the tour that a certain GOP member gave of the closed building, before the attack occurred
• Authorized or legal U.S. foreign-born residents account for a little under 11% of us — 333 m / 35m
• Unauthorized or illegal U.S. residents account for a little under 4% of us - 333 m / 12m
When you die, you are ‘replaced’ by those who are born after you. If you have children, there’s your ‘replacement’. If you don’t have children, someone else will be your ‘replacement’, with a 15% chance that they will be a first generation American, same as it ever was here.
If we are going to survive, we’ll need a whole lot more immigrants than are coming in now, as U.S. population growth is stalled at .35 %, the lowest it has been since
- ever.
Rooting for the decline of the U.S. population doesn’t seem to be much in line with the classic ‘American Spirit’ we often profess. The U.S. population accounts for a little over 4% of the world’s population — 333 m / 7.8b
White people (caucasians, northern European descendants – whatever) are a small minority of the world’s population, and always have been. Who cares? Racists care, no one else. Eventually, everyone alive today will be ‘replaced’, and all ethnicity will continue mingling. If you need only ‘white’ people around you, you are living on the wrong planet. Here on Earth, you are outnumbered 6 to 1.
Homo sapiens is the only real human ‘race’, and we are 99.9999999% the same.
The right wing will say anything to try tl unseat Mr. Biden. They just make it up and hope it will stick. A quick GOOGLE session would tell you from multiple sources that Mr. Biden hasn’t really changed Mr. Trump’s Border policy. The only change was that he thought that returning unaccompanied minors across the border was wrong, so they changed that. But, the Border Patrol detains 6000+ people a day. That’s 180,000+ a month, something like 2 million a year.
Mr. Biden is NOT letting people cross the border. Stop the lies.
Why perpetuate that conservative lie? There are not hundreds of thousands coming across our border, and those few that do are, each and every one, checked for COVID-19.
Interesting that the alt-rights, after screaming about caravans of illegals for years, now want to host them at the White House… and show them as peaceful tourists…
Love it. The Coyotes probably get to sleep in the the Lincoln bed room. Watch out for old Joe he may began to think he’s one of the crowd and wander off. His wife Jill is giving English lessons in the blue room. Hunter is giving art lessons in the conservatory where he also holds classes on tax law violation and dealing with foreign interests. Jill drops by and also holds class on family and children services for the children with out parents and abused mothers. The MS 13 and cartel immigrants are busy taking photos for future home invasion reference. The White House security staff is having tea and light refreshments in the Oval Office
We should rename the Rio Grand De-Nile. We are seeing the highest number of Illegal crosses in decades and many of you deny it. Willfully Blind Democrat Policy is going to get us all sick, regardless having a Vaccine.
Darned tootin’! Anyone caught with illegal crucifixes should pay the appropriate penalty. Just like the sort of people who spread lies about our tried & true Trump Vaccines.
The real President of the U S of A got his shots, and that’s good enough for me.
To MiguelLuiz :You are like a Democrat clown jack in the box popping up to make little comments spouting your leftist ideas and rhetoric to any one who supports this cartoons premise. This cartoon is depicting comically what is happening to state administrations along the border and other states that the Biden administration is dumping illegals in by the bus and plane load. There is no control and no attempt to bring under control the mass exodus from south America in to our country. There is no screening or control to stop criminals, rapists, anti US gang members, terrorists, you name it from just walking across our border. In your comments you defend the Biden’s administrations non action, lack of response that any citizen of this country left or right should be concerned of. This continuing influx from the south along with the present Democratic administrations desires and leadership is eventually going to help push this country towards a Democratic Socialist state.
Nice comparison between the two entirely distinct situations. But that’s par for Mike’s course, where every hole turns to the right, and every player is white.

750,000 have been turned back and 37,000 are being detained. Doesn’t fit Ramirez’s world view though.

It’s the funniest thing: infected Mexicans are flooding over the border and they all immediately move to states that voted Republican.

Actually, most of the people being intercepted at the border are being expelled into Mexico.
And a country is much different, security-wise, from a building.
Oh, and also illegal immigration wouldn’t happen if our legal immigration system wasn’t a mess.
