“If you want to make people angry, mention immigration. If you want to make some of them really angry, scoff at the whole concept. There is no immigration; there are people where they have a right to be, and there are trespassers. Their place of origin and government permission, or the lack thereof, don’t figure into it at all. An uninvited police officer on your front step is a trespasser. The guy from Central America living in the house next door, with the owner’s permission, but without jumping through the government hoops, is not. The U.S. Constitution doesn’t allow for immigration control by the federal government, no matter how its words are ‘interpreted.'” (06/18/25)
