Late Sunday, Elizabeth MacDonough, the Senate Parliamentarian, issued a decision on the viability of an ‘adjustment of status’ amnesty for 8 million illegal aliens in the massive $3,500,000,000,000 Budget Reconciliation package, which Dems hope to pass with a slim majority in the House, and just 50 Senators.
On Thursday, a District Judge for the District of Columbia issued a national injunction ordering the Biden Administration to stop using the CDC's Title 42 to expel migrants who illegally crossed the border, despite the public health risk they pose to local communities, and the new magnet left by ending the program.

On Friday night, the House Subcommittee on Immigration as part of the House Judiciary Committee released the blueprints for their disastrous and irreversible amnesty proposal - Democrats hope to add the amnesty to the massive $3,500,000,000,000 Budget Reconciliation Package which they hope to pass with a slim majority in the House, and just 50 Senators.
Mark Krikorian recently made the case in his National Review column that “the 9/11 attacks were, at their heart, a failure of our immigration system.” His sentiment is backed by the opening words of the 9/11 Commission staff report, which stated - “It is perhaps obvious to state that terrorists cannot plan and carry out attacks in the United States if they are unable to enter the country.”
