I’m loving the hypocrisy of the lefties who seem to hold our attention with outlandish claims. With an estimated 20,000,000 people let into our country during the Biden years, and with all the profoundly negative impacts of that, many are upset with any effort to apply the laws governing being in the USA. The latest slur is how draconian it is to have to show proof of citizenship.
If asked, I don’t carry any documentation that I’m an US citizen. I could carry my passport or get and carry a copy of my birth certificate. If I thought I was going to be subject to such an inquiry, I likely would resort to such actions. That is, if I looked like the one of the millions that crossed the border illegally and am living in an area dominated by immigrants, I would think it prudent to be prepared. “How unAmerican”, you say?
Before you go off on me, did you scoff at the idea of having to show your covid vaccination proof? I bet you don’t protest when you try to enter an airport’s secured area. How about buying liquor at a grocery store, despite looking well beyond the legal age for purchasing alcohol. Just some of the areas where you must “show your papers”.
Now that we’re looking for legal permission of to be in the USA, the long arm of the law is at hand. The drastic illegal actions of the last administration demands that we take corrective actions. Due process relies on confirmation of legal status. Prove to me you were born here, have a green card or H1b, have papers showing your future asylum hearing or else, we’re going to hold you until you can prove it or send you packing when you can’t.
The bald face effort by Democrats to change the electorate in their favor requires that every legal action be taken to assure we have free and fair elections. Obstinance to requiring proof of citizenship is a telltale sign of the underlying intentions of the left. Subvert the electoral process to achieve full and lasting control of government and the people. Starting with asking status of citizenship on the census and flowing all the way through to identification at the time of voting, Democrats resist the simplest actions to assure only citizens are voting and receiving a myriad of other taxpayer provided benefits.
Blue states hide behind “states’ rights” on elections. The invasion of our country that took place demands that issues affecting federal elections be addressed federally. California will fight any effort to establish how many actual citizens live there because their congressional power rests with the number of people, not citizens. Automatic voter registration while applying for a drivers’ license (aka “Motor Voter” laws now in 24 states and DC) now demand that even asking for some kind of identification at the time of voting is inadequate. As unlikely as it is to happen, in states where that occurs, it is imperative that proof eligibility to vote be required.
Litigation to see if the federal government can hold sway over efforts to assure only those eligible to vote is now pending. The positive outcome of efforts to assure free and fair elections may rest on the government being able to ask us to “show our papers”. This is what the Democrats have wrought on us.
