Columnist Charles Krauthammer maintains that if the Supreme Court upholds President Obama's amnesty edict, "[then] you can send Congress home, and you can eliminate Article I from the Constitution, then there are no laws. . . . This is a huge decision. I do not understand how the for liberal justices will, as they will, resist the logic here."

Hungarian Prime Minister Victor Orban advocated for "opposition and resistance" to the mass immigration being forced on Europe by the European Union government in Brussels. The following are more excerpts from his speech which this website reported last month: Today in Europe . . . It is forbidden to point out that this [the forced multiculturalism of Europe] is not an accidental and unintended chain of consequences, but a preplanned and orchestrated operation [by Brussels].” . . . It is forbidden to say that in Brussels they are concocting schemes to transport foreigners here as quickly as possible and to settle them here among us. It is forbidden to point out that the purpose of settling people here is to reshape the religious and cultural landscape of Europe, and to re-engineer its ethnic foundations. . . . It is masquerading as a humanitarian cause, but its true nature is the occupation of territory. And what is gaining territory for them is losing territory for us.” . . . The time has come to ring the warning bell. The time has come for opposition and resistance. The time has come to gather allies to us. The time has come to raise the flag of proud nations. The time has come to prevent the destruction of Europe and to save the future of Europe. To this end, regardless of party affiliation, we call on every citizen of Hungary to unite and we call on every European nation to unite.” . . . If we want to halt this mass migration, first we must curb Brussels . . . Shall we be slaves or men set free – that is the question, answer me!”

A the behest of a left-wing student group a Dartmouth University, the Library of Congress will no longer refer to illegal aliens as illegal aliens. The preferred terms now will be non-citizen and unauthorized immigrant. The Dartmouth group said that it hopes that journalists and politicians will do likewise. This manipulation of language is part of an overall effort by open-border advocates to make illegal immigration not seem like a crime.

The Hungarian government says there are 900 'no-go' areas in Europe where immigrants prevent national authorities from governing. Among cities with no-go zones are Paris, London, Berlin and Stockholm. In these zones, says Hungary's government, "[N]orms of the host society barely prevail."

John Bolton, former U.S. ambassador to the UN, stated in an interview that open borders are "destroying this experiment" [known as America] and that "the consequences will come sooner than later, and they will be negative in their entirety. He also observed that "There's a philosophy . . . and it's kind of conventional wisdom on International Left, that international borders . . . are just kind of there, and really people should be allow to go anywhere they want."

The Obama Administration is working with an "immigrant rights" umbrella group to naturalize as many immigrants as possible before the November elections. This organization, the National partnership for New Americans, has labeled proposals to stop illegal immigration as "hateful." Critics charge that this is an attempt to build a new Democratic voting bloc for open borders and mass immigration.

Sixteen states now have foreign-born populations higher than 15 percent. Six have populations than 26 percent. In 1970 no state had a percentage higher than 15 percent.

A growing number of forecasters predict that a very large percentage of jobs now done by people will be automated in the near future. Meanwhile, immigration advocates tell us that mass immigration must continue indefinitely because supposedly we will suffer from a "labor shortage."

Wendy Wilson is a public school teacher in Nashville Tennessee, a city with a large immigrant population. While local elites praise this "diversity," Wilson sees a number of problems with it in the schools. She asks, "[H]ow much immigration diversity is too much?"

The Obama Administration has put out word to Border Patrol agents to release illegal aliens without trying to send them home. The excuse for doing so is that they will clog up the court system. Brandon Judd, president of the National Border Patrol Council, said that this "catch and release" policy "amounts to amnesty."
