EU Now Wants a Million Migrants a Year: ‘It’s Not Enough’.

The European Union Home Affairs Commissioner, Ylva Johansson, has claimed that Europe needs to take in an additional one million migrants each year to make up for corporate workforce losses.

Asserting that workforce numbers are shrinking by similar figures, “legal migration should grow more or less with one million per year and that is really a challenge to do that in an orderly way,” Johansson said during a conference in Greece.

“Legal migration works very well, but it’s not enough,” she added, alluding to illegal migration as a means to plug the so-called labor shortages. Before her key EU role, Johansson worked previously as Sweden’s Employment Minister.

Migration to the European Union reached 3.5 million in 2023, with over 300,000 illegal entries, with countries like the United Kingdom, where the government is facing criticism for its handling of the migrant crisis, seeing record-high numbers.

EXC DATA: 2/3rds of Americans Say ‘Invasion’ is Accurate Term to Describe Biden’s Border Crisis.

WASHINGTON, D.C. – Sixty-five percent, or almost a full two thirds of Americans say it is “very accurate” or “somewhat accurate” to describe the Biden-made crisis at the U.S. border as an “invasion” of the United States. The data comes as part of new Rasmussen Reports polling of likely U.S. voters, sponsored by The National Pulse.

Asked, “How accurate is it to describe the current situation with migrants at the border with Mexico as an “invasion” of the United States?” just 31 percent said it was not accurate. The numbers are even more stark when broken down into constituent voting groups.

  • 70 percent of 18-39 year olds described “invasion” as accurate, with just 27 percent in disagreement;
  • 74 percent of Black Americans described “invasion” as accurate, with 60 percent of whites, and 73 percent “other” agreeing;
  • 55 percent of Democrats described “invasion” as accurate, with 80 percent of Republicans, and 60 percent “other” agreeing;
  • Just 27 percent of self-identifying “liberals” described “invasion” as accurate, with 77 percent of conservatives and 60 percent of moderates in agreement.

The news comes after months of border turmoil, heralded by the Biden government’s refusal to police America’s national perimeter. Indeed, between the “pull factors” of Democrat “sanctuary cities”, the federal government’s facilitation of the invasion, and Republican governors shipping migrants around the nation for free, more Americans than ever are concerned about the situation.

Asked, “Is border security a vital national security interest for the United States these days?” 70 percent said yes while 17 percent said no. Asked if the situation was a “crisis,” 72 percent said yes while one in five said no. The poll was conducted Jan 2-4 2024, and surveyed 1,044 U.S. Likely voters.

A Machete-Wielding Man Arrested at the U.S. Capitol on December 26th Is An Illegal Venezuelan Migrant.

Jose Leonardo Marquez, a 23-year-old illegal immigrant from Venezuela, was arrested for brandishing a machete, butcher’s knife, and a brick at the U.S. Capitol Building.

Marquez was arrested by Capitol Police on Dec. 26 and charged with both carrying a dangerous weapon and possessing a prohibited weapon.

Marquez “unlawfully entered the United States on an unknown date, at an unknown location, and without being admitted, inspected, or paroled by an immigration official,” according to Immigration and Customs Enforcement’s Enforcement and Removal Operations (ICE ERO) Washington, D.C.

The illegal immigrant “posed a significant threat to people in and around the U.S. Capitol,” said Patrick Divver, acting field office director of ICE ERO – Washington, D.C., said in a statement.  “Thanks to our law enforcement partners at the U.S. Capitol Police, this threat was mitigated quickly. Fortunately, Marquez is currently in ERO custody and will face removal proceedings,” his statement continued.

News of the Boxing Day arrest comes as ongoing border crisis increasingly becomes a central focus of the 2024 elections.

VIDEO: ‘We’re Not in a Classroom!’ – RINO Triggered by Border Security Question from Reporter.

U.S. Rep. Pat Fallon (R-TX) snapped at a reporter who asked lawmakers to raise their hand if they supported shutting down the government unless President Joe Biden shuts down the border. The incident took place at a press conference held by House Speaker Mike Johnson and other Republican lawmakers at the U.S.-Mexico border earlier today.

“We’re not going to do a show of hands,” Fallon can be heard saying – interrupting House Speaker Mike Johnson as he fielded the question from Real America Voice’s Ben Bergquam. The Texas Republican continued: “We’re not in a classroom. We’re not doing a show of hands.”

The moment was additionally bizarre given that Bergquam and other reporters are routinely asked to raise their hands to aks questions of politicians, despite not being “in a classroom,” and that the question should be relatively easy to answer for a so-called conservative concerned with U.S. border security.

Instead, Speaker Johnson indicated the House would push forward with passing individual appropriations bills. He added that House Republicans were able to head off a Christmas omnibus bill out of the Senate. The House passed a laddered continuing resolution, meaning Congress has until January 19th to fund part of the federal government – and February 2nd to fund the remaining departments.

More than 60 House Republican lawmakers traveled to the U.S. southern border on Wednesday to see first-hand the results of President Biden’s open border policies. Several illegal immigrants were caught on video crossing into the United States just feet away from Speaker Johnson and his Congressional delegation as they prepared for a press conference yesterday.

REVEALED: O’Keefe’s Migrant Exposé Shows US Taxpayers Funding NGO Run by Former British Foreign Minister Shipping Illegals into America.

A new video exposé by journalist James O’Keefe has exposed a facility in Arizona allegedly run by the International Rescue Committee (IRC) serving as a transportation center, shuttling illegal immigrants to the nearby Phoenix Sky Harbor International Airport. From there, the illegal immigrants are able to board flights to other cities across the United States.

The IRC is a gargantuan, globalist non-governmental organization (NGO) which boasted a total 2021 budget of over $1 billion. David Miliband, former British Foreign Minister, member of the Labour Party, and oft-tapped future UK Prime Minister currently serves as its president.

In 2021 alone, the IRC was the recipient of $415 million in U.S. taxpayer dollars through government grants. Agencies which fund the group include the Bureau of Population, Refugees, and Migration ($178 million), the Department of Health and Human Services ($123 million), and the Bureau for Humanitarian Assistance ($114 million). In addition to the U.S. government, the European Union gave the IRC $75 million in 2021.

When O’Keefe tried to question an employee at the Phoenix facility – an old school building which the organization has repurposed – he was offered a monetary bribe to go away. Another employee of the facility intervened telling her colleague – in Spanish – to “say nothing.” The facility appears to be run by Thomas Robles – who prior to joining IRC served as the executive director of an Arizona-based leftist group called Living United for Change in Arizona (LUCHA). In an exchange with O’Keefe, Robles called the journalist a ‘domestic terrorist’ before contacting the local sheriff’s office.

The nebulous network of NGOs and non-profit groups who are facilitating the unchecked flow of illegal immigrants into the United States making it difficult to determine the border crisis’s true cost to American taxpayers. Many of these groups receive generous government grants and act as unofficial extensions of the Biden government – but just how much remains unclear.

Biden Weakens Vetting Process for Chinese Illegals.

In April 2023, the Biden government significantly streamlined the vetting process for Chinese illegal immigrants, according to an internal U.S. Customs and Border Protection (CBP) email obtained by the Daily Caller News Foundation. The email, directed at approximately 500 Border Patrol agents, reduces the number of interview questions from around 40 to just five for Chinese migrants apprehended after crossing the U.S. border without authorization. This change came amidst Border Patrol agents being inundated with near-record numbers of illegal crossings.

“This policy change has accelerated the time it takes to process Chinese illegal immigrants — this doesn’t make America safer,” J.J. Carrell, a retired CBP deputy patrol agent in charge, told the Daily Caller. “The final result is that dangerous Chinese illegal immigrants will still be released into the U.S.” In response to this policy change, human smuggling operations have swiftly adapted to these new guidelines, coaching Chinese immigrants on how to respond to the reduced list of questions.

The obtained email also indicates that Chinese illegal immigrants who successfully answer the five “basic questions” may be allowed entry into the U.S. interior and given an immigration court date. Despite this, the Department of Homeland Security’s Special Interest Alien (SIA) list, used to assess potential national security risks, does not include immigrants from China. In November 2023, the backlog of U.S. immigration court cases reached over three million — an all-time high — and Border Patrol encounters with Chinese illegal immigrants have surged by over 1,000% between 2022 and 2023, according to government records.

POISONING THE BLOOD: Couriers Caught with 62 Pounds of Fentanyl at AZ Border, Made ‘2 to 3 Trips a Month’.

Two “cash couriers” have been indicted in Arizona on charges of conspiracy, importation, and possession with intent to distribute fentanyl after being caught with 62 pounds of the deadly synthetic drug at the Dennis DeConcini port of entry in Nogales.

Jocelinne Guadalupe Carrillo Rivera and Perla Marivy Gomez Galvez have admitted that they traveled from Phoenix to Mexico with tens of thousands of dollars for a “coordinator” two or three times a month, in exchange for a small cut of the money.

They claimed they did not know their car was being loaded up with fentanyl, responsible for 73,654 deaths in the United States in 2022 – though they confessed they suspected it was happening.

News of the indictments follows confirmation that U.S. Customs and Border Protection (CBP) seized 854.07 pounds of crystal meth, 164.72 pounds of speed, and 165.34 pounds of cocaine at the border in Laredo, Texas, earlier this month, highlighting the growing scale of the drugs crisis on the southern border.

Presidential candidate Donald Trump has strikingly warned that the drugs and disease flowing across the Mexican frontier amid an unprecedented migrant crisis are “poisoning the blood” of the country, earning criticism from leftist media but plaudits from voters.

Biden Govt Pays for Poland’s New Globalist Regime to Bring Illegal Migrants to National Parliament.

Poland’s new globalist government has wasted little time in demonstrating the strong border policies of the previous, national conservative government are on the way out, with a gaggle of migrants being invited to meet the new speaker.

The visit to the Sejm – the most powerful body in the Polish state – was organized by Fundacja Ocalenie. The foundation receives funding from the American taxpayer, the foundation having receives a $20,000 grant from the U.S. Embassy in Warsaw to “support the needs of marginalized communities,” namely migrants.

The foundation also lists the United Nations High Commissioner for Refugees as a backer – with the U.S. being the UN’s top financial contributor – alongside the European Union and George Soros’s Open Society Foundations.

Fundacja Ocalenie took to social media to boast of the change in attitude towards illegal immigration, quoting one of Speaker Hołownia’s guests, formerly pushed back at the Belarusian border three times, as saying: “I would never have thought, while I was in the forest on the Belarusian-Polish border, that one day I would be invited to the Polish Sejm. That I would be among the specially invited people. Such a thought would not have even crossed my mind then.”

Speaker Szymon Hołownia, properly the Marshal of the Sejm, posed for an Angela Merkel-like picture surrounded by the migrants.

Hołownia is a member of the Third Way party, one of an unwieldy coalition of parties that backed Donald Tusk to become Prime Minister of Poland, ousting the previous Law and Justice party (PiS) despite the fact it placed first in October’s elections.

POISONING THE BLOOD: $10.2M of Meth & Coke Seized at US Border.

U.S. Customs and Border Protection (CBP) has seized 854.07 pounds of crystal methamphetamine, 164.72 pounds of powdered methamphetamine, or speed, and 165.34 pounds of cocaine at the World Trade Bridge in Laredo, Texas.

The narcotics, with an estimated street value of $10,298,520, were uncovered when a CBP officer brought in sniffer dogs to inspect a 2001 Freightliner tractor-trailer, which was supposedly transporting cut flowers.

“CBP is proud of the work our frontline officers do to ensure the safety and wellbeing of our communities. This significant seizure is an example of ongoing operational efforts conducted daily to protect our borders,” commented Port Director Alberto Flores.

The drugs find lends credence to Donald Trump’s warning, first reported by The National Pulse, that America’s southern border crisis is “poisoning the blood of our country.”

While the former president’s enemies have tried to paint the comments as racial, allies such as Senator J.D. Vance have pointed out it is “obvious that he was talking about the very clear fact that the blood of Americans is being poisoned by a drug epidemic.”

The 45th President also highlighted the danger illegal immigration poses to public health in terms of disease, with border officials having already identified the likes of tuberculosis, syphilis, and dengue fever among illegal aliens.

The enormous scale of the border crisis is straining officials’ resources at the frontier, making it less likely drugs shipments like the one intercepted at Laredo will be discovered.

EU Fears Another 2016 Moment in 2024.

Josep Borrell, High Representative of the European Union for Foreign Affairs and Security Policy and Vice President of the European Commission, is afraid of a national populist surge in 2024, due to the worsening migrant crisis. Such a resurgence would represent a second major moment for the populist right, similar in nature to the Brexit and Trump victories in 2016.

“I am afraid of fear, I am afraid Europeans vote because they are afraid. It’s scientifically proven that fear in the face of the unknown and uncertainty generates a hormone that calls for a security response. This is a fact,” claimed Borrell, who like many top EU officials was appointed to his post without reference to voters.

The European Union (EU) establishment is increasingly concerned that national conservative and populist parties could make gains in the European Parliament elections scheduled for June 2024, with the Alternative for Germany party (AfD) having already made significant progress at the local and regional level in the EU’s socialist-governed economic powerhouse in 2023.

Overall, the populist right in Europe has seen mixed success in recent years. Viktor Orban won a fourth consecutive term in Hungary in 2022. Italy elected what was supposed to be its most conservative prime minister in decades, Giorgia Meloni. Though she was quickly subverted.

This year also saw populists lose ground in Spain’s elections, and the Socialist government cling to power despite the establishment right pushing it into second place. Similarly, Poland’s Law and Justice party (PiS) was ousted by Donald Tusk, a former EU president, despite placing first, after a coalition of globalist parties cut a deal to seize control.

Populist stalwart Geert Wilders placed first in the Dutch elections, although negotiations over the Netherlands’ next government, which will be some form of coalition, remain unresolved.
