In the political theater of absurdity, the Biden-Harris administration COULD be planning to pardon all of the illegal aliens in the country ahead of the inauguration of Orange Man Bad. Yes, a blanket pardon for millions and millions of illegals in the country could be in the planning stages.
Forget border enforcement or meaningful reform – why not just wave a magic pardon wand over decades of ignored immigration laws? It’s like proposing to fix a leaky boat by opening up more holes.
Sure, Biden’s been generous with pardons before – just ask Hunter. And his leftist friends are trying to get him to pardon sleazy folks like Liz Cheney and Dr. Fauci ahead of Trump’s impending presidency. But there are also those who are wanting Biden to pardon the illegal aliens in the country too – taking pardon “generosity” to a whole new level.
The idea, apparently, is to preemptively pardon anyone who’s been labeled an “illegal alien,” thereby shielding them from deportation or prosecution. Advocates argue this is about “human rights” and “stopping fascism.” But to most Americans struggling to pay their bills or feeling unsafe in their communities, this feels more like pouring gasoline on an already roaring fire.
There are lots of crazies in the media calling for this [1].
The Washington Post says Biden should pardon [2] DACA recipients.
And The Nation website [3] says outright in the title of their article that illegal aliens should be protected, saying, “President Biden Should Issue a Blanket Pardon of Undocumented Immigrants.”
They call this a “modest” proposal and say there is a moral case for a “mass preemptive pardon for immigrants.”
However, this action would actually be totally immoral – and the most anti-American think that the Democrats have ever done – and that’s saying a lot.
