Few residents of this Wisconsin small city have seen a migrant but some are blaming Biden for an ‘invasion’ regardless and elsewhere in the state an influx of foreigners is not all it seems
Rhinelander is closer to the Arctic Circle than to Mexico, so it is no great surprise that few people in the small Wisconsin city have laid eyes on the foreign migrants Donald Trump claims are “invading” the country from across the US border 1,500 miles to the south.
But Jim Schuh, the manager of a local bakery, is nonetheless sure they are a major problem and he’s voting accordingly.
“We don’t see immigrants here but I have relatives all over the country and they see them,” he said. “That’s Biden. He’s responsible.”
Large numbers of voters in key swing states agree with Schuh, even in places where migrants are hard to find as they eye cities such as Chicago and New York struggling to cope with tens of thousands of refugees and other arrivals transported there by the governors of Texas and Florida.
Trump has been pushing fears over record levels of migration hard in Wisconsin where the past two presidential elections have been decided by a margin of less than 1% of the vote. A Marquette law school poll last month found that two-thirds of Wisconsin voters agree that “the Biden administration’s border policies have created a crisis of uncontrolled illegal migration into the country”.
So immigrants are just left out in the street and have no taxpayer hotels, food, and water, cell phones? That is misinformation there. It is all over the news about migrant hotels and migrant schools. And if they do qualify as a refugee, some of them will undoubtedly well get welfare. I never said the US has a national language, but a country is not a country if it is fractured by languages. Look at Europe, look at Ethiopia, look at Somalia, look at the violence between Francophone and Anglophone factions in African countries. How many intellectual resources will you find in Spanish available online? There are whole databases of intellectual and academic information available in English. If you are assuming I am a white supremacist, let me clear up things that show how much of a straw man you are: I am not white, I am dark, and I don’t look white. Another thing, why do you insinuate my race? What’s next, you are going to assume my gender too? I never said English is the official language of the US. Even the state of Texas has no official language. You think you know more than me? You are straw man…
Unauthorized immigrants are just left out in the street, yes. Registered migrants are provided with one year emergency shelter for asylum. During that time they are to decide if they are choosing the path of naturalization by becoming a registered immigrant, or moving to another nation. The emergency shelter expires after the year regardless of their choice.
I’m not going to address your claims about “intellectual resources” being exclusive to English other than calling them incorrect and racist.
I did not assume your race or language, I just assumed it wasn’t Native American. It was a statistical likelihood.
Lastly, an example of a “straw man argument” is if I said blue is the best color, and you said you like red better, so that means I must hate the color red. My responses have not misrepresented your assertions. They’ve simply disproven them.

That’s great news about California! The state is 87% Democratic, so it’s not really a surprise.
The other articles are due to the overflow that occurred when Biden repealed Title 42, and Congress failed to pass border security for a year, or immigration reform that hasn’t been updated since 2013.
They need to do their jobs so the President isn’t forced to control the border with Executive Orders. They’re designed to be temporary measures for addressing a crisis, not the primary form of managing border security and immigration policy.

I said most intellectual capital is within the English language. There you go, creating another straw man.
You’re misrepresenting yourself.

Why not just say your racist and be done with it… It’s so strange that people like you are so willing to put so much time into spewing and defending gross racist bullshit, and then act like you’re not a piece of shit racist.
At least be honest. Based on your fervency, you should be proud of it, no? Why are you embarrassed to admit you’re a racist?

You’re singlehandedly pulling the average down
Also FYI there’s more English speakers in China than in USA. Have fun with that one!
This is a great example of the Gish Gallop in action.
Illegal immigrants alone pay over $12 billion in taxes every year despite receiving basically nothing from the state in return.
Racists don’t have to be white men, it’s just easier.
