The Breitbart News reports that House Speaker Nancy Pelosi said in a speech on the House floor Thursday that illegal immigrants brought to the United States by their Parents as children “are the fathers of our country …… the true and rightful heirs of our founding fathers.”
Pelosi made her claim as Democrats were preparing to vote to grant Amnesty to at least 3 million immigrants, including those Pelosi said were brought to the U.S. by their parents as children, illegally.
Democrats refer to these child arrivals as “dreamers. Pelosi said the legislation protects “Dreamers” and calls for respect for the fact that immigrants are America’s continued renaissance.
According to Pelosi, “When they come here with their hopes, their Dreams and their aspirations, these parents come here with their children, their hopes, their dreams and their aspirations for a better future for their children, and that courage, that determination, that aspiration, are all American traits, and with that, they all make America more American.”
Pelosi went on to praise illegal immigrants, “The truth is, these dreamers are the true, legitimate heirs of our Founding Fathers.”
Breitbart News argued that Pelosi ignored the dreams and aspirations of the American people, ignoring the needs of 17 million unemployed Americans and treating the illegal immigrant Dreamers as the real VIPs of the moment. Pelosi’s rhetoric was met with the internet spray, “74 million Trump supporters are domestic terrorists, while 30 million illegal invaders are the rightful heirs of the Founding Fathers. Gotcha.”
Over the years, a variety of polls have shown that Americans have deep and widespread opposition to legal immigrants, labor migrants, and temporary contract workers, flowing into the United States and competing with young graduates for jobs.
The Breitbart News commented that Pelosi’s praise of illegal immigration echoes the progressive view that the United States is not a Home for American citizens, or that it is a “nation of immigrants” open to any foreigner. This view is increasingly being promoted by wealthy Americans, in part because illegal immigrants are additional cheap workers, consumers and renters who can boost their stock market wealth.
As the public generally recognizes, the effect of immigration is to move money from employees to employers, from families to investors, from the young to the old, from children to parents, from homebuyers to real estate investors, and from central states to coastal states.
