Once again, the Leftist media never bothers to get (or even ask for) the full story. I’m here WGAL; it just takes a phone call…
I remain staunchly supportive of our Law Enforcement using the tools necessary to get the bad guys. At the same time, I take very seriously my Oath to “support and defend the Constitution of the United States…,“ which, under the Fourth Amendment, guarantees your right to privacy, and against unlawful search and seizure.
BTW, WGAL, you might want to check social media – since it’s apparently your preferred method of journalism - and you’ll see thousands of American Citizens concerned/complaining about this issue everywhere - including the 10th District.
@WallStreetApes@kylenabecker Same in NC. Parents cannot create or access without ROI. No information? No payment. I’ll need to see the ROI signed by my minor child giving consent to bill.
There have been 4 major revolutions in the past 250 years: American, French, Russian, and Chinese. Only one led to individual rights and prosperity. The others led to mass death and tyranny. The US revolution was unique because it said two things: 1. Our rights come from God not from the govt. 2. Humans are power -hungry so we need to limit govt power. So the next time someone attacks the nation of one revolution that succeeded and recycles the the idea of those that miserably failed, you can ask them: are you ignorant, or malicious?
Dear @VP@JDVance, I was honored to see you endorse my idea of prohibiting birth tourism citizenship in U.S. Territories (which China has exploited to the hilt), and I'd like to offer you some even bolder ideas to save our national sovereignty.
So far, solutions to the Anchor Baby problem have focused on the "anchors," but the SCOTUS decision requires renewing focus on the "boats" they tether and ending their incentives to give birth here. Here’s how.
Take all the conditions in the original Trump EO and direct all the consequences onto foreigners who exploit "loophole citizenship" by declaring them PERSONA NON GRATA.
Specifically, if an alien without legal permanent residency chooses to have a child on U.S. soil, the foreigner parents must either renounce the child’s American citizenship or lose the ability to ever again legally step foot in the U.S., their choice.
Under the Immigration and Nationality Act (8 U.S.C. § 1182(f)), the President has broad power to suspend or restrict entry of any class of foreign nationals the President determines would be “detrimental to the interests of the United States.” The President should use this authority to deem such foreigners:
1) permanently ineligible for U.S. entry under any visa type (whether visitor, student, work, or otherwise)
2) permanently ineligible to petition for asylum, refugee, or temporary protected status
3) permanently ineligible for lottery or family based entry
4) permanently ineligible to petition for any legal residency or U.S. citizenship whatsover, including by future marriage to an American citizen.
Foreigners cynically use their children as tools to get lawful access to the U.S., its resources, and its opportunities that were paid for in blood and treasure by generations of Americans that came before. Forever shut the door to that access and birth tourism would plummet overnight.
But what about the people who would defy any ban or are already here illegally? That’s a tougher problem, but still addressable. The lawbreakers would have know that if they exploit “loophole citizenship” and choose not to renounce their child’s U.S. citizenship, they will have automatically moved themselves up on the deportation tracking and priority list.
The president can also exercise his discretion under the INA to strip away common procedural tools immigration lawyers use to delay or withhold removal and can require expedited deportation once they are caught as we currently do with repeat offenders and criminals.
Congress, for its part, should codify these changes to prevent any potential future open borders President from unilaterally undoing them. It may also need to create mechanisms for a parent covered by the EO to be able to renounce their child's American citizenship as an exercise of their parental rights, especially in cases of truly accidental births on U.S. soil.
States too have a role to play in limiting perverse incentives. For example, they can require parents who are here illegally to pay for the public schooling of their children, whether U.S. citizen or not (and thereby prompt the court to revisit the wrongly decided Plyler v. Doe decision of 1982).
People are furious because the biggest court rewrite of the Constitution since Obergefell has placed our national identity at the mercy of foreigners making decisions according to THEIR interests, on THEIR timing, and on THEIR terms.
In the American system of government, for every egregious SCOTUS decision, there should be an equal and opposite reaction from the other federal branches, the states, and the People. It’s how our system is designed, and we should exercise that power to make sure it is Americans, and only Americans, who decide who can join our great nation.
We're up to 29 Gavelers ⚖️
29 different Republican Senators
taking turns presiding over Pro Forma Sessions to sabotage our sitting president.
Neither party has EVER used this tactic against their own POTUS
Until now.
POV: You're outside grilling on the 4th of July, and you remember that 4 women decided that your children can no longer have a country because placing ANY standards on what counts as citizenship is "really mean" so you have to allow your country to be invaded by foreigners.
6 AM Call to Action
If you have a colleague here on a visa who clearly cannot do their job, report them anonymously - and tell your other colleagues this option exists. Remember the ability to communicate effectively is also a requirement for a visa.
This is how we make it uncomfortable for employers who abuse the system. This is also how we empower the good employers who feel powerless as their teams get flooded with H-1B workers who cannot perform at the expected level.
Every report is required to generate an investigation, eventually. HR may never tell you, but these reports impact financials, policy, and hiring practices over time. It also leads to investigations into whether their academic credentials are valid.
Use the official channels:
- USCIS Tip Form: https://t.co/RvF91BTY75
- Department of Labor Foreign Labor Certification: https://t.co/YxwGF1Q5Nw
- DOL Wage and Hour: 1-866-4-USWAGE (1-866-487-9243)
I prefer online as that leaves an FOIA path that is easily traced.
Quietly share this path with others. When enough people document real performance and communication failures, companies will finally feel pressure to hire Americans who can actually do the work.
