NEW YORK STATE SOCIETY OF CPAs: In 2022, undocumented workers paid $96 billion into Social Security and Medicare

Undocumented labor is a little like slave labor for the nation - payroll taxes are removed as the 'employee' is posing as legitimate, but as an undocumented person they aren't officially accruing the years of Social Security history that a documented worker would be adding to… https://t.co/4DipbmqvOY

New York State Society of CPAs, NYSSCPA, has part of the story. 

Undocumented immigrants paid taxes amounting to $96.7 billion in 2022, including funding for government programs that they cannot access, according to a report by the Institute on Taxation and Economic Policy (ITEP), a left-leaning think tank. Roughly one-third of their tax payments included $ 25.7 billion to fund Social Security and  $6.4  billion to fund Medicare.

Although one of the most common arguments for limiting immigration is the cost borne by the U.S. government, the study showed that undocumented immigrants pay about 26 percent of their income in taxes, Bloomberg News reported.

In total, undocumented immigrants paid $8,889 per person, in federal, state and local taxes in 2022. That translates to public services receiving $8.9 billion in additional tax revenue for every one million undocumented immigrants who reside in the country.

Six states raised more than $1 billion each in tax revenue from undocumented immigrants living within their borders, the report found. Those states are California ($8.5 billion), Texas ($4.9 billion), New York ($3.1 billion), Florida ($1.8 billion), Illinois ($1.5 billion), and New Jersey ($1.3 billion).

In 40 states, undocumented immigrants pay higher state and local tax rates than the top 1 percent of households living within their borders, the report found.

The ITEP estimated the tax payments of undocumented immigrants in several categories, including sales and excise taxes; property taxes paid directly or on taxes folded into rent payments; and payroll taxes, which are paid either through paycheck withholding or filing income tax returns. 

Institute on Taxation and Economic Policy, ITEP, corroborates this story, or fact.  This is kind of important to know since many U.S. taxpayers are besieged with demoralizing stories about how undocumented are getting freebie after freebie, right after right handed to them.  Many U.S. workers had become so demoralized that they couldn't see themselves working alongside undocumented workers who are unfairly receiving a score of benefits at the U.S. taxpayers' expense.  Turns out that the undocumented are paying into Social Security and into Medicare.  

• Undocumented immigrants paid $96.7 billion in federal, state, and local taxes in 2022. Most of that amount, $59.4 billion, was paid to the federal government while the remaining $37.3 billion was paid to state and local governments.
• Undocumented immigrants paid federal, state, and local taxes of $8,889 per person in 2022. In other words, for every 1 million undocumented immigrants who reside in the country, public services receive $8.9 billion in additional tax revenue.
• More than a third of the tax dollars paid by undocumented immigrants go toward payroll taxes dedicated to funding programs that these workers are barred from accessing. Undocumented immigrants paid $25.7 billion in Social Security taxes, $6.4 billion in Medicare taxes, and $1.8 billion in unemployment insurance taxes in 2022.

Arizona Rep, Andy Biggs grills Ur M. Jaddou, Director, U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services.   

I asked questions that you couldn't answer, so that's why I gave a statement.  Do you agree that the same social security number was used on at least 20 different CHNV supporter applications?

So first let me start by saying . . . 

So these are yes or no questions.  So yes or no?

I just want to make clear that that the role that USCIS plays is on the supporters . . . 

And I'm asking you about supporter applications.  

Okay, I'm sorry.  Can you repeat that question then?  I heard it as a parole, the parolee.

No, the same social security number was used on at least 20 different CHNV supporter applications.  That's the question I asked.

Okay, sorry.

You're aware of that?

So yes I am very aware . . . 

It happened at least 3,200 times.  

I don't have the exact number in front of me.

That's according to DHS's report.

Okay, . . . 

I don't have . . .

You don't dispute DHS's report, do you? 

No I absolutely will not . . .

Also, the same phone number was used on at least 20 different supporter applications.  At least 3300 times.  That's according to the report.  Do you agree that that report is,  accurate?

I don't have that report in front of me, but, uh, um . . . 

I'm reading from it.

Yes, but I don't have it in front of me and I would prefer . . .

So you would dispute it?

No, I'm not disputing.  What I am saying 

So, you would deflect and ramble around.  You don't disagree with that number you don't think I'm deliberately cherry picking numbers and just saying oh I'm just throwing the stuff out I'm giving you the numbers from the report do you trust me on that do you at least trust me that far?

Yes, I, I, I . . . 

Okay so then you agree with that number same email address was used on at least 20 different supporter applications nearly 2,000 times do you agree with that?

Sir if if there is a situation where we have concerns of fraud and integrity, we take action at CIS and that exactly what we have done with regard to CHNB.  Where we . . .

Let's clarify here.  So I am laying foundation, and you don't really want to admit that there's this much rampant fraud here.  

You're trying to tell me that when you find fraud, we cure it, and yet nearly 2,000 times you had the same email address used on 20 different supporter applications.  The same exact 184-word text response to a question on the supporter application was used on more than 1,800 such applications by nearly 190 different CHNV  supporters.  

More than 460 non-existent zip codes were used on supporter applications on behalf of more than 2800 CHNV aliens.  So you see, you can dance around and say you don't have the report in front of you and what not, but these are the facts.  This program is rife with fraud.  

As of August 6th, 2024, DHS had approved more than 80,000 CHNV supporters who were in the US on a temporary basis.  Temporary basis.  I'm going to give you some numbers.  

224 CHNV parolees approved as CHNV supporters.  That seems awkward.  

170 additional parolees CHNV approved as CHNV supporters.  

28,322 temporary protected status holders approved as CHNV supporters.  

19,865 SLEs approved as CHNV supporters. 

311 DACA recipients approved as CHNV supporters.

1300 + aliens in the US on temporary visas approved as CHNV  supporters.  

64 refugees approved as CHNV supporters.  

1912 Conditional Permanent residents approved as CHNV  supporters.

That is the program that you are administering.  That's the section that you're administering.  

That's the supporters.  I'm not talking to aliens.  I'm not getting into the violation of law, of the US code 1182, when the use of parole is supposed to be on a case-by-case basis, where Secretary Mayorkas himself has sat here under oath said it's supposed to be on a case-by-case basis.  I'm not getting into that.  

What I'm getting into is a program, the side that USCIS is supposed to actually administer, and that is the supporter applications.  And the fraud was so rapid, you closed down the program.  But you didn't fix it.  It's still ongoing.  We're waiting for the next report to confirm that these things are still going on because it wasn't fixed.  Mr. Chairman, my time's up.  I'll yield back.

Mr. Chairman, can I respond to the question?

There was no question because I asked questions you couldn't answer, so that's why I gave a statement.  There was no question for you, ma'am. 

MIKKEL THORUP ON YOUR INTERNATIONAL PLAN B

Here one of the world's foremost experts describes how to settle on your Plan B.  https://t.co/63B84dF7JU

— Tom Woods (@ThomasEWoods) December 4, 2024

Here is Mikkel's proesentation.

Mikkel's other resources.

Well you're going to need a safe place to stay.  This would be a second home.  And we're going to get into this in a minute.  You need it structured securely so that no one's going to be able to take it away from you.  You want to have it private, so that it protects your privacy, your anonymity.  

We need a free flow of capital.  Maybe you need to be able to put money into a country and take money out of a country.  We don't want put the money in, and you can't get it out.  That's not going to be good.  It needs to be tax optimized.  Now, as we discussed, a lot of the people on today's call are Americans who we're going to get into US tax situation but we need tax compliant from the country that you're going into, and maybe your home country, and any other residency or citizenships that you have.  

Then we need a secure, we need to secure your freedom of movement.  So this is the immigration.  This is the Residency, the passport, the permanent residency.  These types of things and someone that's going to fit your lifestyle, who you are as a person, you are a value of your philosophy, all right, all the things that we need to keep in mind. 

If we're going to develop a plan B for you, why do you need a plan B?  Well there's political instability all over the world, including North America, Europe, Australia, and New Zealand, in the Western World in general it's politically unstable.  Unrest, the social unrest, with all the elections happening in the world.

Major financial collapse on the horizon. 

Strangulation of businesses during COVID.  

You want to be in a place where you can build and create without compliance officers everywhere.

War in Ukraine Iran.

Forced Health mandates like vaccinations. 

Your plan B is political insurance.

12:35.  4 PLUS 1

#1 IMMIGRATION

PERMANENT RESIDENCY is

* A permanent Visa to live work and do business in a foreign country.

* Gives you the majority of the rights of someone who was born in the country.

* A solid foundation for building your life in a new country.

* If you abide by the stipulations of the Visa you can live in the country forever.

* Most countries have a PR Visa.  To keep the Permanent Residency VISA active, he has to visit at least 1 day every 2 years.  As long as he does that then his Visa is valid forever. He has residencies in other countries so he visits those countries regularly.

* Permanent Residency can eventually lead to citizenship or naturalization.  A Temporary Residency will not lead to Naturalization.  A tourist VISA will not lead to naturalization.  So you will not get that covered passport if you are a Temporary Resident.  

WHERE WILL YOUR PERMANENT RESIDENCY BE, OR MULTIPLE PERMANENT RESIDENCES BE?

#2 CITIZENSHIP is the ultimate option, the thing that we're really really pushing for.

*  It's when you can say I am Brazilian or I am El Salvadorian.

*  You have all the rights as someone born in the country.  [A a permanent resident does not have the qualifications to hold an elected office; a citizen does]

*   You actually get the passport.

*   In most cases, your citizenship can be passed on to the next generation of your family.

*  If something happens to the passport, you just apply for another one. 

Immigration to the US is now heavily subsidized by government handouts, and it’s a no-brainer that all welfare for immigrants must be abolished. It's also important to limit citizenship. But some aspects of the Trump plan dangerously empower government agencies in ways similar to the state-building legislation of the post-9/11 days. We don’t need more federal power in the US. We need less.

Let's talk about the Trump immigration plan plans from both a free market laissez-faire classical liberal perspective and look at what's good and bad about the plan some aspects of it are great no brainer they protect private property rights some aspects essentially expand Federal police powers and that's not a good thing. 

GOOD PART OF TRUMP'S IMMIGRATION PLANS 

00:29.  Cutting out welfare dollars.  In recent decades, the US Immigration system has become a government subsidized scheme.  Show up, get free money, access to schools.  All sorts of free stuff get thrown at migrants.  Even those who go through the legal system after only 5 years they get access to a wide variety of welfare programs.  Also get access to citizenship they're at least begin the process after 5 years. 

Also, brand new immigrants showing up and have money thrown at them, like these five-star New York hotels subsidized by the government to turn them into fake "refugee shelters."  You see this in cities like New York but really across all US cities.  Debit card with thousands of dollars on it; free housing in luxury hotels; free food, as well as free natal care.  Americans saw it as a problem.  Huh.  That's why they're voting for Trump.  So no downside to cutting all that immigration welfare in this scheme of subsidizing migration.  Nothing wrong with true private sector migration where someone gets invited, offers a job to these people or the private sector supports these people and these people have to be productive in return.  Situation when we're facing.

02:12.  Citizenship is not a property right there is no natural righteous citizenship in any particular place except for the tiny number of people who would be rendered truly stateless where they denied you a citizenship none of these people arriving would be stateless without being granted you as citizenship they already have citizenship in the countries they came from when a lot of them get citizenship in the US they don't renounce their old citizenship they now have dual citizenship showing that they were never at risk being stateless but by not having citizenship are not forfeiting any property rights we should expand the time Horizon for citizenship to at least 10 years maybe 20 this requires a person to be far more invested in the local community to contribute a lot more to the local economy before they can start to extract resources in the form of social benefits programs and that doesn't endanger anyone's property rights you don't have to be a citizen to acquire property to keep it to have legal contracts with others.

MASS DEPORTATION

03:40.  How do you accomplish Mass deportation?

Border agents don't have special powers to determine who is legal or illegal.  How do you determine this?  You have to conduct investigations. How do you conduct investigations you ask people what their citizenship status is you investigate them you spy on them essentially You observe them demand they provide proof of citizenship ask people for their papers I know we're going to be told by many conservatives if you're not doing anything wrong you have nothing to fear that's what these people told us with regards to the Patriot Act, the NSA spying, and the war on terror, in general, those vast expansions in the surveillance state, that a lot of conservative supported said "Hey, it's no big problem, because the government would never abuse its power."  Of course, we know, they always do.  So any scheme to go out and start investigating people more closely to determine what their citizenship status is, it's problematic.  Some migrants will volunteer themselves for deportation; these people are criminals in many cases.

05:54.  Since World War II, the US created this whole new idea of a "Border Zone."  [Border Patrol was created in 1924, and became part of US Customs & Border Patrol, CBP, in 2003.  This 25-mile wide border zone was created in 1952.] It's no longer just the border with a wall checking to see if a migrant is a felon; that's one thing that virtually nobody has a problem with.  But since World War II this new invention of the federal government, the obviously unconstitutional, 20th-century thing created was this 25-mile "Border Zone," where border agents can wander around asking people to prove their citizenship.  That was unilaterally extended without approval from Congress up to 100 miles and more recent decades.  You've seen videos with this on YouTube where people are just driving through the American Southwest and they're being stopped and asked about their citizenship.

07:20.  Going around asking citizens to justify their existence with paperwork is a problem.  We can't have a society that punishes private citizens for trying to rent an apartment to a person who doesn't have the correct government paperwork.  Or for someone who's paying a migrant to mow their lawn and they don't have the correct government paperwork.  These are all examples and excesses of Federal power expansion beyond a border issue.  Cutting off welfare dollars is the best start.  Or changing the citizenship situation that actually limits Federal power

None of these people arrive stateless.  By not having any citizenship, these people are forfeiting any property rights.  They have citizenship in their old country.  They are dual citizens.  We should expand the

Eric R. Weinstein’s “Great Replacement” by Johnny Vedmore

Eric R. Weinstein’s “Great Replacement” https://t.co/eTU0L1U0uC via @JohnnyVedmore

— St. Michael, the Archangel (@aveng_angel) October 5, 2024

"The Great Replacement" concept is not just used to intimidate or scare domestic populations, it is real and it is really being implemented.  So don't dismiss the obvious fallout from this.  It's designed to lower the standard of living wherever it is implemented.  You're doubling the population in many cases so as to reduce the amount of goods once available to just the native population.   

Vedmore explains, 

Essentially the UN decided that the democratic voters of a nation-state would oppose unfettered economic migration, as we are experiencing today, and the folks at this globalist entity believed they knew better. To achieve their goals, the United Nations needed to subversively introduce this agenda in an undemocratic manner without gaining the consent of the native citizens of the democracies that they were to target. The man they chose to analyse and map out this scheme, which many refer to now as “The Great Replacement” was Eric R. Weinstein, who has since become a central figure in the “Intellectual Dark Web” whose members include Ben Shapiro, David Rubin, Jordan B. Peterson, Sam Harris, Douglas Murray, Joe Rogan, and Eric’s brother Bret Weinstein. 

Vedmore's revelation is so valuable here.  It's important to keep regular notes as to who the "Intellectual Dark Web" is.  When I first heard Jordan Peterson, I thought he was fantastic and was really pursuing truths in service of working kids.  

Ben Shapiro.

David Rubin.

Jordan B. Peterson.

Sam Harris [in my opinion, one of the more disgusting guys anywhere].

Douglas Murray.

Joe Rogan, and 

Bret Weinstein.

In the context of "The Great Replacement," however, Eric Weinstein stands out as the prime culprit.  He was employed by the UN, an exclusive hotbed of communist intellectuals.

Eric Weinstein was employed by the UN to produce a document entitled: "Migration for the Benefit of All: Towards a New Paradigm of Economic Immigration," Weinstein was aware of the damage which economic migration was to do to the native populations in places such as the United States and the United Kingdom. In one part of the document he produced for this nefarious United Nations agenda entitled, “Preference for migrants, undercutting of natives”, Weinstein wrote:

“When migrant and native workers of comparable value to an employer are asked to compete, it is to be expected that the employer will take the applicant who costs him/her less. If, however, the respective terms of employment of the native and the migrant workers differ considerably, the employer may develop a preference between otherwise equal candidates. If migrant workers are not permitted to seek alternative work in the host country, then their “company loyalty” is reduced to a matter of law and regulation. In such circumstances, employers know that they will not have to earn migrant worker loyalty with the expenditure of resources that would be needed in the case of native workers. Thus it is to be expected that in systems tethering migrant workers to their employer-sponsors, some migrants will out-compete natives of comparable or greater value simply by virtue of the terms of employment set by the MWP. Since this is precipitated by a rational market response on the part of native employers, this consequence must be seen as a natural, if unfortunate, by-product of direct migrant sponsorship.”

We are screwing up tons of other things, including immigration.  But life isn't either or, so when your kids say we'll do this or that . . .  You know, you're dealt the hand you're dealt, and you got to deal with it.  So we should be very clear about helping the lower-income population.  Every country has to control the borders, and we have to control the borders.  So they're all important.

00:22  Would you take the deal that the Republicans put on the table, which is we want this border and immigration policy as we've laid out, and then we'll fund the rest.  Would you take that than neither?

00:32  I have not read that deal in total, but I probably would take it.  We have to control the borders.  We need more merit-based immigration.  We need more seasoned immigration.  [seasoned?  You mean of a certain age?]  We need DACA to have a place here.  We need a path to citizenship.  If you do not control the borders, you are going to destroy our country.  And so I think the people who think that somehow it's okay, well now that they're sending the migrants into New York and stuff like that . . . so to all of my super liberal friends, now they realize what a problem it is.  Did it have to be that?  So we want to have a big heart for the world, but we have to control [the border and immigration].

From BipartisanPolicy.org,

What is a CR, a continuing resolution?

On an annual basis, Congress is responsible for providing funding for around 30% of all government functions, called discretionary spending. This funding is split up into 12 bills, which are typically due to be passed by both chambers by the start of each fiscal year on October 1, known as “regular appropriations.”

More often than not, though, Congress fails to complete all spending bills on time. A continuing resolution (CR) is a temporary “stop gap” by which Congress funds the federal government for a limited period to avoid a lapse in appropriations (more commonly referred to as a government shutdown). Lawmakers use CRs to ensure federal agencies continue operations until Congress and the President reach an agreement on how to appropriate federal funds for the rest of a fiscal year.

How does a continuing resolution work? What are the different types of CRs?

There are six main components of a CR that determine how federal agencies can operate when it is in effect:

• Coverage: Which agencies, programs, projects, and activities are subject to the CR.
• Duration: The timeframe over which the CR will fund those operations.
• Rate of Operations (Funding Rate): The rate at which federal agencies can spend funds, usually expressed in annual terms (even if the CR covers less than a full year).
• New Activities: CRs only cover initiatives funded in the previous fiscal year unless they are directed otherwise through provided legislation (a type of “anomaly”).
• Anomalies: Legislative provisions that allow an agency’s current-year coverage and/or rate of operations to differ from the previous year’s levels, or allow for spending on specified items not ordinarily permitted during a CR.
• Legislative Provisions: Additional legislative components that may be attached.

CRs can be enacted for part of a fiscal year (short-term CR) but can be extended or even enacted for the full year (full-year CR). CRs can also cover all or only select federal agencies, depending on the status of individual appropriations bills, and they can vary in their duration.

When Congress has passed full-year appropriations for some agencies and not others, the government is sometimes referred to as “partially funded.” When different CRs cover different agencies for different time periods, it is often called a “laddered” CR.

A “year-long” or “full-year” CR is when one or more federal agencies or programs are covered by a CR for the entire fiscal year. This has happened for all or some of the regular appropriations bills 15 times since 1977, three of which were in the 21^st century: in FY2007, FY2011, and FY2013.

What’s the difference between a continuing resolution and a shutdown?

A CR is a legislative measure used by Congress to avert a government shutdown. A shutdown occurs when there is neither a full-year spending bill nor a CR in effect for a department or agency with expiring budget authority. For many parts of government, that expiration date occurs at least once annually at the end of the fiscal year. If a CR or a full-year deal is not in place when an agency’s budget authority expires, some federal agencies and programs agencies are required by the Congressional Budget and Impoundment and Control Act of 1974 to stop all programs or activities that are not critical to national security or the protection of lives or property.

How have continuing resolutions been used in the past?

CRs have become a regular tool for Congress, which repeatedly struggles to complete the annual appropriations process on time: Congress has enacted at least one CR in all but three of the past 47 fiscal years. From 2010 to 2022, policymakers passed 47 continuing resolutions ranging in duration from one to 176 days. From FY1998 to FY2023, an average of five CRs were enacted each fiscal year, though as many as 21 were implemented in one fiscal year (FY2001). In the 21^st century, Congress has used CRs to provide funding for federal agencies for an average of five months each fiscal year, though lawmakers have also passed full-year CRs.

Why does Congress pass continuing resolutions?

Congress may pass a CR when it cannot reach political agreement on full-year funding, often due to divided party control in government. This includes failure to agree on any or all of the following:

• The overall level of funding in the discretionary budget that Congress is required to pass annually (referred to as 302(a) allocations, named for the section of the 1974 Congressional Budget Act that governs the congressional budget process);
• The subdivision of funding into the 12 appropriations bills, such as Defense, Agriculture, or Homeland Security (called 302(b) allocations); and
• Policy provisions that are often included in appropriations bills and reflect non-budgetary priorities of the two parties, often referred to as policy “riders.”

Even when there is political agreement on some or all of the above, delays from the president, one chamber of Congress, or both chambers can prevent lawmakers from enacting full-year appropriations before October 1. For example, the House may not consider all of its appropriations bills by June 10 (required by law but without any penalty for lawmakers’ failure to act). These procedural delays can necessitate a CR even absent the political disputes outlined above.

What effects do continuing resolutions have on the federal government?

CRs can yield operational challenges and funding uncertainty for impacted agencies, including disruptions to financial planning, hiring staff, or beginning new projects and activities—demonstrating the difficulty of relying on CRs for federal budgeting. They can also place significant administrative burdens on federal agencies and waste taxpayer resources.

Many agencies’ programs may be limited or halted altogether under a CR. For instance:

• The Department of Education cannot determine grant amounts for predominantly black institutions until Congress finalizes appropriations (whether full-year regular appropriations or a full-year CR), potentially causing delays in grant award notifications for these institutions.
• The Department of Health and Human Services and its grantees can struggle to provide summer cooling assistance to households under the Low Income Home Energy Assistance Program (LIHEAP).
• Property managers working with the Department of Agriculture on its Section 521 program providing rental assistance to rural tenants can experience weeks-long payment delays during a CR.
• The Department of Commerce can delay or cancel critical field testing of modernized surveying technology, which can have negative downstream impacts on the quality of household and economic survey data that Congress, other government agencies, and the business community depend on.

In addition to these effects, the rate of spending during a CR can create problems even after full-year spending is passed, especially if it comes late in the fiscal year. For example, if the spending level is cut in an agency’s final appropriation, but the agency had been operating at a higher, prior-year annualized rate under the CR, it may have to drastically adjust operations during the latter months of the fiscal year to avoid overspending. This can mean sharp decreases in services, activities, or even stopping ongoing projects. Conversely, if the appropriation is at a higher level than covered during the CR, the agency may be incentivized to accelerate spending in the final months of the fiscal year, which can lead to wasteful spending on unneeded goods or services.

Just as important, a CR leaves federal agencies stuck on the funding levels and policy directives of the prior year, even though public needs and program priorities change on a consistent basis. For example, federal agencies are stuck in early 2024 on spending laws that were put in place in December 2022, over a year prior.

What are the effects of a CR that lasts the whole year?

Before FY2024 appropriations were completed in March 2024, some lawmakers had discussed enacting a year-long CR. Other lawmakers in both parties, and some federal officials, have pointed to the numerous ways in which a year-long CR—while preferable to a government shutdown—could disrupt federal agencies and programs:

• The Department of Defense would be unable to expand from half-day to full-day kindergarten services for the children of service members stationed at U.S. military bases around the country and world.
• The Army would be constrained in providing recruiting bonuses for new enlistees, hurting recruitment and retention efforts in the Armed Forces.
• The Department of Agriculture’s Supplemental Nutrition Program for Women, Infants, and Children (WIC) could not keep up with current demand and rising food prices, meaning states responsible for managing WIC are more likely to have to turn away beneficiaries at some point during the year.
• U.S. Customs and Border Protection would have to “furlough agents, officers, trade analysts, and other staff” at a time of record high border crossings. Additionally, U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement may need to release migrants from detention to close a $700 million budget gap.
• The Transportation Security Administration would have to freeze hiring, which could increase wait times at airports across the country.

A CR leaves federal agencies and departments with limited flexibility to adapt to shifting program needs and requirements, forcing programs to operate as if the current budget year is largely the same as the last one, when no two budget years are the same

ARMSTRONG: Walz pushed through legislation to grant illegal migrants driver’s licenses, making it easier for them to participate in elections.

They do, however, plan to implement policies that directly cause our nation to be a dangerous place.  --Martin Armstrong

Texas Governor Greg Abbott has called the Harris-Walz ticket “the most dangerous p/vp ticket ever,” adding, “She supports free health care to illegal immigrants. He signed laws giving state services to them. Both provide magnets for more illegal immigration.” It is no exaggeration to say that these two want to push socialistic policies on America. As Walz himself has said: “Don’t ever shy away from our progressive values. One person’s socialism is another person’s neighborliness.”

Tim Walz is a staunch supporter of open borders. As governor of Minnesota, he passed legislation to make Minnesota a sanctuary state. Walz believes that taxpayers should fund bills that provide Democrats with additional power, which could be anything from permitting illegals to vote to climate initiatives with no ROI. Walz pushed through legislation to grant illegal migrants driver’s licenses, making it easier for them to participate in elections. He expanded the MinnesotaCare health program to include migrants as well. He implemented “free” college tuition for illegal migrants and anyone with a household income under $80,000.

Walz has no problem spending money he did not earn. Under Governor Walz, Minnesota’s expenditures expanded 40% from $41 billion in 2019 to $58 billion in 2023. His most recent budget of $72 billion is to be funded by an increase in the sales tax as well as higher vehicle and license registration fees. Minnesota’s marginal tax rate of 9.85% for the highest earners is one of the highest in the United States.

People are fleeing Minnesota under Tim Walz. Over 8,221 households chose to leave Minnesota in 2022, with a replacement rate of only 0.86, as indicated by research from the Cato Institute. Households earning over $200,000 annually were more likely to flee Minnesota thanks to high taxation and socialistic policies that target anyone with more. The high-tax, business-adverse environment has caused money to leave the state, with the Tax Foundation’s State Business Tax Climate Index ranking Minnesota 44 out of 50 states for business. The Economic Freedom of North America index ranks the state 43^rd in the country due to its aggressive taxation.

Walz also supports defunding the police. The Black Lives Matter advocate has seen crime in his state grow significantly. The murder rate reached a new record in 2021 after increasing 8.5% to 201 homicides. Violent crime in general rose by 21.6% that same year. Rapes increased by an alarming 22.7%, yet Walz wants to speak about women’s rights and health. Carjackings are also now an issue in Minnesota as motor vehicle theft spiked by 20% in 2021, reaching a 20-year high.

Tim Walz will always find the funds to support climate change. He signed legislation in 2023 that aims to transition Minnesota to a 100% carbon-free state by 2040. He adopted California’s clean car emissions standards through an executive order back in 2021. He signed another executive order back in 2019 claiming that climate change was an “existential threat” that could only be solved by taxation and personal sacrifice for the public. He has already pledged hundreds of millions into combatting the weather cycle.

We know without a doubt that Tim Walz is going to raise taxes if elected this November. Neither he nor Kamala Harris has a plan to tackle the cost of living crisis. They do, however, plan to implement policies that directly cause our nation to be a dangerous place. They plan to implement policies that force families to give more of their money to the government for initiatives that will never benefit them. Walz himself has called socialism a form of being neighborly and will propel America into the Great Reset – before the people have had enough.  

NEW YORK STATE DECLARATION ON ILLEGAL MIGRANTS: Find new homes for all refugees identified by UNHCR as needing resettlement; and expand the opportunities for refugees to relocate to other countries through, for example, labor mobility or education schemes

The United Nations, Obama with Soros money did this. Not just to America but to every member nation.   https://t.co/smM6G1cn6G

Orban says,

Remember we have UNDENIABLE PROOF George Soros paid off these elected officials to flood America & Europe with illegals.

I don't see that proof in this thread. I searched for it on the site, Project Syndicate, but couldn't find it.

MysTerry explains that,

The Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs), also known as the #GlobalGoals, were adopted by the United Nations in 2015 as a universal call to action to end poverty, protect the planet, and ensure that by 2030 all people enjoy peace and prosperity. Obama introduced the in 2015 expecting HRC would follow through. https://usaid.gov/sdgs. Is this the Soros Plan to which Orban refers?

Here is Orban,

The Damn Is Breaking. People in the UK are protesting. People in Britain are storming police guarding an immigration hotel Remember we have UNDENIABLE PROOF George Soros paid off these elected officials to flood America & Europe with illegals The Prime Minister of Hungary exposed the document proving George Soros is largely behind the global illegal immigrant invasion Back in 2015, George Soros published his plan, which is now being implemented across the globe to bring millions of illegals into the United States and into Europe. As Hungary's leader Viktor Orban recently pointed out:” Viktor Orbán “I do remember how Mr. George Soros published his plan The Project Syndicate Publication: First, this is a very clear. In 2015, EU has to accept at least a million asylum seekers annually 2nd, he said, adequate financing is critical, and he proposed to issue long term euro bonds for financing the migration crisis and the migrants social and welfare taking care when they arrive in the European Union.” “I do remember how mister George Soros published his plan in English in a project syndicate publication. It was done 2015, September 26. And he published a plan. He said that he is my I'm quoting, here are the 6 components of my comprehensive plan. — He said that, quoting them, safe channels safe channels must be established for asylum seekers starting with getting them from Greece and Italy to their destination countries, which means to bring them to Greece to Hungary and then have them to go to Ocen. — It was written. It was published. It's known. So we are fighting to get an organized gang called Empire of George Church and NGOs who are just supporting everybody who is transgusting our legal system and our regulation and, uh, financing illegal activity against our nation. So this is this is why the story is not just about migration, but it's about how this European Union is working and how George Soros was able to captive the main positions inside many institutions of European Union  

Buying out MPs and other leaders in order to execute the plan, which is written and it's against all the Christian and nation-based political forces, it's against us. It's about how to change Europe and how to elevate and push aside all the Christian, conservative, national based political leaders and voters from the European Union decision making bodies. So this is the migration about not just migration”

Breaking Exclusive: A shocking and dire warning has been issued that could see a massacre on the scale of Rwanda taking place in Ireland! Could the massive amounts of Illegal Migrants that have now been allowed by the globalists into Ireland be weaponized and used to destroy the Irish people. Ireland is under sustained Globalist attack. The Illegal Migrants now for the first time outnumber Irish fighting age men. United States Special Forces Veteran and Green Beret Michael Yon joins me to discuss the Globalists plans for the continued destruction of humanity. Micheal Yon paints a worrying picture and scenario that could see containers of machetes or other weapons delivered to arm millions of military age illegal migrants to effectively carry out a planned attack on the indigenous Irish people.. Michael has maps of strategically placed migrant camps all around Dublin and other strategic places. He goes on to use the massacre of Rwanda as an example of what he thinks could be being planned. Mass illegal immigration has been weaponised by Globalists and their puppets in our respective parliaments and governments. Was the Cloudstrike global outage a trial run and will they do it again before November 2024 to usher in their new Financial structure while wiping out peoples pensions and mortgages! There could be an orchestrated purge type situation where millions of Illegal migrants suddenly rise to attack their host nations. This could lead to a massive disaster that the west needs to understand is a very real and present danger. There are periods of great instability just ahead and its essential that everyone gets ready for serious disruptions to our way of life and the things we take for granted may not continue. Michael is also warning of a coming global famine. Freedom train International is the fastest growing International Freedom Movement in the World.

CATHERINE AUSTIN FITTS: Diversity is used as a way of pushing out the Patriots

Catherine Austin Fitts is warning of the very same thing...https://t.co/ZhiazqCafz

— Sense Receptor (@SenseReceptor) July 23, 2024

So you know my big concern is the Republicans are now going to be used to market the control grid to conservatives and I think my message looking at what's been happening is we have to double down on our efforts to stop the control grid so if somebody tells you that we need Biometrics for digital ID to deal with election fraud or the Border don't believe them don't believe it it's a marketing job for conservatives.  Any comments on any of those meetings?

00:33, POLLY TOMMEY. Can you just expand on that Catherine I'm at Biometrics just explain that to our people a little bit more thoroughly. 

00:41. AUSTIN FITTS. So if I want to go to an all-digital financial system, which is where I get the power . . . I mean what we're looking at is a coup d'etat, and the coup d'etat is changing control of fiscal policy and the legislative and executive branches from representing the people to being controllable by the bankers.  What an all-digital financial system allows the bankers to do is run all of that fiscal policy and all of the legislative policies through the financial system so the bankers . . .  literally, it's a coup of the bankers to take control of the whole government instead of the banking half.  So traditionally we've had the people's representatives in the legislative branch and the executive branch and then we've had the bankers run the monetary policy.  Now, the people who run their monetary policy, you know, grossly oversimplified, can take over the rest.  

It's exactly what we saw in that great video of Carstens from the Bank of International Settlements, saying, "You know, we can make the rules centrally and we can enforce the rules centrally and that includes taxation without representation."  And so the question is how can you sell this?  Chairman Powell has said he needs legislative, new legislation, and legislative authority to do that, and, of course, you need a way of selling conservatives on, you know, I hate to say this, giving up their 1st Amendment rights, giving up their 2nd Amendment rights, giving up their guns or having gun control radically increased.  But most of all, they need to be sold on digital IDs and biometrics, and, you know, what Trump and that group is really good at doing it and saying is "Oh, we have to stop immigration on the border, so everybody needs an ID so we can stop [the inflows].  We can send the immigrants home and stop immigration."  That's number one.  You know, or "We need more surveillance and more control and that includes the digital IDs and election fraud."  So there is a real push to get conservatives to buy into the control model, you know, for different reasons that are used in different sorts of marketing to people of different political persuasions.  And what we're seeing you know and I'm just reading between the lines of the RNC, we're using all sorts, it's really beautiful, seeing diversity used as a way of pushing out the Patriots.  And there's a real effort now, I think, you've seen a lot of factions coalesce around a Republican sweep of both Congress and the presidency, and on that sweep they would love to push through the control grid.

Illegals are still counted in the census. 

They're eligible to vote. 

They're entitled to driver's licenses.

So, what is the difference between illegals and American citizens?  American citizens pay taxes.  

This Is UNREAL, The State Of “Colorado started offering driver's licenses to undocumented immigrants” In 2014

A New Law just passed removing all barriers and All Illegals Can Now Obtain Drivers Licenses “Undocumented immigrants no longer are required to file income tax returns for the prior year. They also won't need to prove they've been living in Colorado for at least 2 years nor provide a Social Security number or individual taxpayer ID number” “Information tonight about a new law that makes it easier for undocumented immigrants to get driver's licenses.” “So this is really helpful to the immigrant community. Uh, when immigrants arrive in the US and they apply for asylum, Immigration and Customs Enforcement takes their passport and ID. Uh, so it's very important for them to have some form of ID.”

Thank you to Sasha Latypova.  

“Where else will your people go?” Trump White House officials told me that Trump’s top advisers used this line whenever they got pushback on stuff that was brazenly out of step with GOP voters, i.e., “They don’t like the Platinum Plan? That’s too bad. Where will they go?” That’s what new right people don’t get—often on purpose, because they can’t be honest. This isn’t just going to happen on social issues. It’ll happen on whatever issue Trump wants to move the party left on, including immigration. Because where will Republicans go? What are they going to do about it?

They rolled us.  That's what they did.

Gayle Ruzicka, RNC platform Committee Member from Utah just after today's vote in Milwaukee,

I've never seen this happen before I don't understand why they did it and I'm extremely disappointed that we do not have any pro-life language.

Democrats Are Claiming Donald Trump Is Lying About Illegal Migrants Drawing Social Security Benefits Here’s a Town Hall held in Chicago by US Rep Jonathan Jackson confirming illegals are being put on Social Security “They come into this country and get a stipend, link, a free room and board, free child care, and some of them are getting Social Security, and when my ancestors were released from slavery, they got their clothes on their back. But yet, they were told to be happy. So why am I and everyone in this country footing the bill for people who are non-Americans, who don't vote? ‌ Who don't fight in any of our wars, who've never paid a tax. And we're told that if we say anything, we're xenophobic. Tell me why. Tell us all why. I wanna know. I think it's wrong. I mean, it shouldn't happen, but this is a U.S. immigration. Transparency, that's my brother. That's my brother. We disagree, but that's my brother. I just wanna say anyway, what the sister said, I don't give a damn about no Joe Biden. So... ‌ If that lady wanna pass out something about that, that's her free will. Y'all can't be forcing democracy on people. She got the right, just like you got the right to say vote for Joe Biden. I got the right as somebody who represents formerly incarcerated persons to say Joe Biden and Clinton's 94 Crime Bill created that, and we haven't recovered from that. ‌ The only asylum seekers that are perpetually discriminated against in this country by everybody is formerly incarcerated people. They have 18,000 homeless ex-cons, yet they're around here talking about public safety. You don't even know where these men are. Then you let more ex-convicts in here in the name of migrants. But they want to tell you... ‌ That is the low . . . this own the state, its own, its own, uh, the, I mean the Republicans, all politicians local. Every in this state don't let them fool you. From the top, from, from the Lieutenant Governor to Tony Pratt Winkle, to the Mayor, to the Police Chief, to the State's Attorney, to, the Aldermen, to the Congress person, to the state reps, all are black. ‌ You got 150 elected black positions and our communities look the way they look. And if I say something, if I say something, if it's not with my brother, he just got there. They want to legislate for us without ever bringing us to the table. I did 21 years in prison. What they gonna tell me about what we need? ‌ They ain't never spend one day in the cell but they legislate for your nephew, cousin, and son. Furthermore, ain't no kids in here. Ain't no teenagers in here. Over 150 murdered young men from ages 16 to 24, and ain't no kids in here? That's the problem. You old people, y'all keep voting the same way, hook, line, and sinker, without ever holding them account. And the very babies go kill y'all ass.

These kids are little wolves. Hey, ain't nothing that's nobody saying no more important than this. Hey, hey, wrap your ass. Ain't nothing nobody's saying more important than this. I'm tired of y'all playing games with these babies. These babies gonna start driving y'all, but they already doing it. They gonna kill you. I think y'all getting carjacked now. 60% unemployment rate for 18 to 24 and you got money for migrants?”
