America, it’s just the start. And it’s a disastrous beginning, at that.
As we reported late Friday night, frazzled House Speaker Nancy Pelosi finally scraped together enough votes to pass the bipartisan $1.2 trillion “infrastructure” bill, after Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez (D-NY) and her fellow Squad comrades announced they would vote against the legislation.
13 Republicans helped Pelosi (and the Democrats) to win the election, we reported earlier.
Even though the bill was expensive, Democrats plan to inflict more destruction on America without bipartisan support. They will do this through reconciliation, bypassing the Senate filibuster and causing even greater damage later this month.
Next up on the tee, as the Biden Border Crisis continues unabated, Democrats are eyeing Biden’s $1.75 trillion Build Back Better Act, and along with it, sweeping changes to U.S. immigration law, including amnesty for illegal immigrants. As reported by MarketWatch, lawmakers “promised” to vote on the “social and environment bill” by the week of Nov. 15. Last night’s vote was a major step in that direction.
The socialists’ $1.75 trillion spending dream addresses a wide range of pet issues, the majority of which have zeroInfrastructure. Buried deep in the bill are, as Just the News described, “a series of provisions which, if signed into law, would amount to a windfall for illegal immigrants.”
Built Back Better contains provisions to encourage illegal immigration with BILLIONS in taxpayer money.

Many of the provisions would affect significant changes in the U.S. immigration system — funded by taxpayers. Speaking of which, as we reported on Friday, a new study by the Wharton School of Business destroyed Biden’s nonsensical claim that his “Build Back Better” plan would cost taxpayers “zero dollars” and add “zero dollars” to the national debt. On the contrary, it would potentially increase new spending by $3.98 trillion — while revenue would only increase by $1.56 trillion.
For millions of illegal aliens, amnesty?
Having been twice rebuffed in their effort to include amnesty in the bill — a so-called “path to citizenship” for millions of illegal aliens — House Democrats finally unveiled “Plan C,” as noted by Just the News, which relies on a process known as advance parole to protect illegal immigrants from deportation and grant them the ability to obtain work permits.
Advance parole would allow illegal immigrants to be granted relief from immigration restrictions if they have lived in the U.S. since 2011. Those who are beneficiaries could apply for a five year extension.
The government could grant up to 10 year work authorization to any illegal alien in the country who was present before Jan. 1. 2011. The Center for American Progress estimates that this would be a benefit to more than 7 million illegal aliens. However, the Democrat Party sees only seven million possible Democrat voters.
Rep. Jerrold Nadler (D-NY), chairman of the House Judiciary Committee, was pleased with Friday’s agreement, describing it as the Democrats’ “best option for getting past the parliamentarian.” Fighting for “you,” America.
But there’s more.
Right after the House opened for session this morning, we blasted the Biden Administration’s crazy plan to pay illegal aliens for entering our country – then moved to ADJOURN to try to stop the vote on the Democrats Big Gov’t Socialist scam bills.

Robert Law, director of regulatory affairs and policy for the Center for Immigration Studies, as transcribed by Just the News, sees the Democrat scheme for what it is — more than just amnesty for illegals.
“Through ‘Build Back Better,’ Democrats are trying to give some form of amnesty to millions of illegal aliens, make illegal alien students eligible for subsidized in-state tuition, and make illegal alien children eligible for tax credits that used to be limited to American children.”
Current law, according to Mr. Law, prohibits “undocumented” students from being granted in-state tuition unless U.S. citizens are offered the same rate regardless of where they’re from. But Biden’s Build Back Better Act would strike this provision, meaning an illegal alien in Virginia, for example, would pay less to attend the University of Virginia than a U.S. citizen from Maryland.
The Democrat goal is to provide in-state tuition for illegal aliens with no restrictions.
Just for News reported that Democrats are also looking to remove social security number requirements. These numbers can be used as proof of eligibility for child tax credits. This change could provide benefits to approximately one million illegal alien children if it is passed.
Just the News noted that there were two more provisions which could have major implications.
- The government can tap into unutilized visas that were issued in previous fiscal years for more immigration. This would not only affect legal immigration but it could also impact illegal immigration. wouldn’t excludeMillions of illegal aliens would be eligible to receive green cards if granted advance parole.
- Major corporations can now bring in foreign workers without restrictions. Google, Facebook and other employers already take advantage of legal loopholes that allow H-1B visa holders to temporarily work in the U.S. Critics argue that such actions hurt American workers — and that the reconciliation bill would make things worse.
Oops — I almost forgot.
Here’s how much money the Build Back Better Act includes for enhancing border security:
