I caught a beating in the comments on my last article — “Rebuild It Right: Rescuing California from the Corruption of Illegal Labor.”

Some folks said I didn’t go far enough. Others called me a RINO for even mentioning the DIGNIDAD Act, introduced by Rep. María Elvira Salazar (R-FL).

And some were just there to rage. Fine. I welcome it.

But, here’s the truth: nobody laid out a real, concrete, workable roadmap for eliminating illegal immigration in California.

So, let’s get all the way real.

That means facing the facts, taking the heat, and showing up anyway.

2.6 million.

That’s how many illegal immigrants live in California, according to the Department of Homeland Security. Nearly one in four of the illegal immigrants in America is in this state.

Over 800,000 are in Los Angeles County alone. That’s my backyard.

This shadow population is entrenched in agriculture, food service, factories, construction, and domestic labor. It’s driven down wages and erased fairness — not just for legal immigrants, but for all working-class Americans.

Employers know it. Politicians protect it. And Californians pay the price.

If the plan is to deport every illegal immigrant in California, let’s get honest about what that actually means:

Is it possible? Maybe.

Is it simple? Not even close.

This is a logistical, legal, and political war.

You can’t meme your way through it. And you can’t rage-post it into existence.

If people are serious — not just mad online — then show me how:

This isn’t mockery. This is leadership. Asking hard questions. Demanding real answers.

Because if we don’t start mapping this out, the corrupt status quo wins by default.

You want action? So do I. That’s why I proposed a framework that included:

I don’t pander. I don’t pretend. And I don’t accept paralysis.

We didn’t get 2.6 million illegal immigrants overnight. And we won’t fix it with rage and name-calling.

You want to deport 2.6 million people?

Great. Then lead. Show me how.

Until then, I’ll keep doing what I came here to do — offer solutions, not shout into the void.

Editor’s Note: Thanks to President Trump, illegal immigration into our great country has virtually stopped. Despite the radical left's lies, new legislation wasn't needed to secure our border, just a new president.
