    Here’s How Biden Admin Destroyed Our Immigration Law

    Since early 2021 we have witnessed somewhere between 7 million and 8 million illegal entries across the now-nonexistent southern border of the U.S. The more the border vanished, the more federal immigration law was rendered inert, and the more Homeland Security Secretary Alejandro Mayorkas spun fantasies that the “border is secure.” He is now written…

    Here’s Another Way the Biden Admin Might Push Illegal Student Debt-Shifting Scheme

    It’s clear that the Supreme Court’s decision to block President Joe Biden’s student debt bailout attempts has motivated his administration to find new ways to bypass Congress and the American people.
