We need to keep Democracy here, for us and for the world. We can’t let Trump use the border crisis to get elected.

As President Biden said the border is broken. The asylum system was meant to give refuge to people facing deadly situations such as in a war or being unjustly persecuted. The asylum system is being overrun with people who are mainly seeking better economic conditions. At the same time, there are wars going on in which there are people facing truly deadly situations.

We need to stop the flow of unqualified asylum seekers. At the border, we need a rapid response to deport unqualified asylum seekers. We may need the national guard to assist border agents. We may need to detain those who ask for a hearing and may need to hire more asylum judges and other personal. Stopping the flow is critical.

We must make it clear that asylum is only for those who need it to escape deadly situations and that we don’t have an open border policy. Fox News constantly saying our borders are open has been causing massive numbers to come to our border.

Fox has also accused the Democratic party of trying to change the US demographics by the immigration system. We should not have prejudicial polices against minorities nor anti-white policies. Immigration has largely been Latino for decades. This is seen as an anti-white policy by many and this where Trump gets very much of his support.

We shouldn’t try to change the demographics. We need to try to win over all voters regardless of race; that includes people who voted for Trump. We are the party that supports workers, the building up the middle class and not letting the wealthy dictate our laws. We already have a big natural advantage in that most voters are not looking to give more help to the super wealthy. We shouldn’t be divided because of race or have any prejudicial policies.

Now, with the Russian invasion of Ukraine, there are many people facing truly deadly situations. Accepting Ukrainian refugees, women with children, whom mostly are white would keep them out of harms way, it would show the Fox claim of an anti-white policy to be false which would take away much of the Trump support and we can have another Biden-Harris term in 24!

Robert I have no idea of what you are talking. The only thing that shows up in my inbox is a response and likes.

I didn't realize that substack had hall monitors. I was making comments on Robert Reichs substack, and most have pissed off someone badly. as I was shooting down their b.s. with facts, it was either a commenter or Robert Reich, because I am now censored.

An old trick I ran into a decade ago.

I can post, I can even read my post, but when I refresh the page, my post is invisible.

I don't know how to contact the substack Hall Monitors.

And how do the Hall Monitors know, they can't possibly read every comment on substack.
