“Why did we come here?” Dadzie Kakra, an immigrant from Venezuela currently living in upstate New York, rhetorically asked Politico. “We just came here to work. We came here looking for green money. That’s it. That’s the truth.”
For all the asylum talk the Democratic Party spews to justify their open borders policies, Kakra speaks the truth. The literally millions of immigrants that have illegally crossed our border since President Joe Biden took office aren’t coming to flee persecution. They are coming here to make money.
BIDEN HEADS TO WISCONSIN NECK AND NECK WITH TRUMP
Which is admirable. But it doesn’t entitle them to enter the country whenever they want and stay here forever, which is exactly what Biden is enabling them to do.
The bulk of the Politico article on immigrants living in New York is designed to push Congress to pass a new law that would speed up work permits for those immigrants Biden is illegally letting into the country.
Currently, Biden is letting immigrants into the country in two main ways: 1) releasing those immigrants who are caught illegally crossing the southern border into the country, or 2) illegally granting parole status ahead of time to immigrants from a select number of countries who then fly into the United States.
Both groups of immigrants can apply for work permits after six months, but Democrats want to shorten that to 30 days.
In between those 30 days and six months, many immigrants are being exploited. Kakra, for example, said he works for a construction contractor that pays him $150 for 17-hour work days, far less than New York’s $14.20 minimum wage.
“Individuals who arrive lawfully in the United States under our expanded parole programs are eligible for work authorization,” a White House spokesperson told Politico. “Our administration has used tools, including parole processes, for certain populations. But none of these administrative tools are a substitute for Congressional action.”
This is bull honkey.
All of Biden’s parole programs are completely illegal. If Biden is going to rewrite immigration law unilaterally to let unlimited numbers of immigrants into the country whenever he wants, then why not give them work permits too?
There is no legal reason not to. Biden is already breaking the law. Why not break it more?
The Politico article even suggests that “there are options that could lead to working papers, such as a federal deferred action program to expedite the process.”
Exactly!!! President Barack Obama repeatedly said he couldn’t give work permits to immigrants who illegally entered the country as children right up until he did exactly that with his Deferred Action for Childhood Arrivals program. He didn’t involve Congress at all! He just did it!
There is no reason Biden couldn’t do the same thing for all the immigrants he is currently illegally letting into the country.

Don’t do illegal amnesty halfway, Biden!
If you are going to let immigrants into the country illegally, you might as well give them illegal work permits, too.
