Open borders Biden cuts a deal?

 DC Daily Journal:

...

A poll conducted by Gallup in February of this year showed that the biggest issue to voters is immigration.

The issue topped the list as the number one problem for 28% of those polled.

The next top issues were “government” at 20% and “economy in general” at 12%.

In the same poll, 55% of those polled said that immigration will be a critical issue in the next 10 years with another 31% saying it will be important.

What is Biden’s answer to the concerns of American citizens? He wants to open the flood gates.

President Joe Biden has contributed to a nearly 1.2 million increase in the number of foreign nationals living in the United States who are eligible or obtaining Temporary Protected Status (TPS), which makes them ineligible to be deported.

According to Pew Research Center data, about 1.2 million foreign nationals are eligible for or have received TPS, allowing them to stay in the United States, obtain work permits, and escape deportation.

Since assuming office, Biden’s Department of Homeland Security (DHS) has added Afghanistan, Burma, Cameroon, Ethiopia, Ukraine, and Venezuela to the list of countries where individuals living in the United States but without an immigration status can apply for TPS.

Last September, Biden extended TPS to nearly half a million Venezuelans in the United States. That came after over a quarter-million Venezuelans were granted TPS in 2021.

Under Biden’s leadership, the country’s foreign-born population expanded.

More than 51 million foreign-born people call the United States home, making it the largest number in American history, according to the most recent estimates from the Center for Immigration Studies (CIS).

“The foreign-born share of the U.S. population has more than tripled since 1970, nearly doubled since 1990, and is up 40 percent just since 2000,” CIS researchers write.

“Since President Biden took office in January 2021, the foreign-born population has grown by 6.4 million — larger than the individual populations of 33 states.”

Based on all of the polls, is this what Americans are begging for? No, they want secure borders.

Back in February, Gallup polled Biden’s disapproval rating on immigration at a whopping 67%.

Over two-thirds of those polled disapprove! Including a 7% decrease in support by Democrats on the issue since November of 2023.
...

Biden clearly does not care what voters want when it comes to immigration.  He apparently has another agenda when it comes to controlling the borders.  He certainly has not made much of an attempt to justify what he is doing with illegal immigration.

Should Republicans go ahead and add Supreme Court Justices to head off Democrats

Washington Post: Some Democrats eye adding more justices to the Supreme Court to change its ideological bent The once-remote idea has gained the attention of liberals angered by the GOP push to remake the federal courts. Probably the easy way to defeat this court-packing scheme is for Trump to propose doing the same thing now.  It would lead to Democrat denunciations and claims that it would be wrong, thereby blowing up any attempt by them in the unfortunate event of Democrats winning a presidential election.

29 % of companies say they are unlikely to keep insurance after Obamacare

Conn Carroll: A new survey of 368 midsize to large companies found that 29% of them are considering terminating their active employee health care plans when Obamacare is full implemented in 2014. Only 71% of employers surveyed said they did not expect to drop their health coverage, while 20% said they did not know and 9% said they were planning to exit. The latest survey, conducted by Towers Watson, echoes an ealier survey by McKinsey & Co. finding that 30% of private-sector employers were planning to drop their employee health insurance coverage by 2014. When the Congressional Budget Office crunched Obamacare's spending numbers, they estimated that only 7% of employees currently covered by employer-sponsored plans would lose their plans. ... This means the cost of the health care fiasco will be hundreds of billions more than estimated by the CBO and Congressional Democrat. It is also clear that Obama's pledge that you could keep your health care plan if you wanted t

Bin Laden's concern about Zarqawi's remains

James Robbins: ... Bin Laden suggests that President Bush should allow Zarqawi’s body to be returned to his family in Jordan, but this is a matter that is up to the Jordanian government, which so far has not shown much interest in facilitating a homecoming. Bin Laden mocks King Abdullah II, calling him a Coalition minion, and asking “w hat scares you about Abu Musab after he’s dead? You know that his funeral, if allowed to happen, would be a huge funeral showing the extent of sympathy with the mujahedin.” A large crowd would definitely turn out, though most people would be on hand to demonstrate their anger and disgust. Last November’s hotel bombings in Amman , masterminded by Zarqawi, are still fresh in people’s memory, and mentioning them to Jordanians has the same visceral impact as memory of the 9/11 attacks does here. Jordan has adopted a zero-tolerance policy towards those who choose to mourn the country’s least favorite son, and four opposition members of parliament who paid con
