Sen. Chris Murphy, D-Conn., said Wednesday that the Democratic Party's push for a path to citizenship in border legislation has failed the people they "care about most" in this country, "undocumented Americans."
MSNBC host Chris Hayes asked Murphy about the border security bill and said, rather than pushing for a path to citizenship in border legislation negotiations like the party has in the past, Democrats were using Ukraine funding.
"Well, I mean, Chris, that’s been a failed play for 20 years. So you are right that that has been the Democratic strategy for 30 years, maybe, and it has failed to deliver for the people we care about most, the undocumented Americans that are in this country," Murphy said.

In an interview with MSNBC, Sen Chris Murphy (D) said that the Democrats care most about 'undocumented Americans'. Not actual Americans who were born here or who came here legally. But 'undocumented Americans'.
HEY CHRIS ... they aren't 'undocumented Americans'. They are ILLEGALS. Line jumpers who refuse to follow the immigration laws and come over the border illegally. Tens of millions breaking the law, invading, and destroying the economy and running amok with crime.
At least he finally said out loud what we all knew ... Democrats don't care about actual Americans and America. We should be the #1 priority ... but we aren't for them.
Democratic senator reveals 'people we care about most' are 'undocumented Americans' in US

Homeland Secretary Mayorkis has been asked to estimate the number of illegals in the U.S.
To no one's surprise, he didn't know. The U.S. Census Bureau has been told to say there's between 10 - 12 million, which is utterly ridiculous, since they have absolutely no way of determining. They site B.S. 'statistical models", and have even claimed that with margins for error, their estimates are accurate to within 250,000 people. How could they possibly know that?
Even sillier are the low estimates given by some dem congresspeople of 4 -5 million illegals. The sad fact is, there may be close to 30 million! That's more than double the combined populations of New York, Los Angeles, and Chicago.
A study by Yale which came to light in 2018, says there are easily over 20 million. Even using analysis for 'lowest case scenarios', they were seeing 16 million.
After running 1,000,000 simulations of the model, the researchers’ 95% probability range is 16 million to 29 million, with 22.1 million as the mean.

I certainly agree that the 30 million
figure doesn't even seem possible.
We will know soon enough, though.
It's a known fact there are well over 2 million illegals in California, and probably closer to 3 million. Then we must consider Texas and Arizona. And that's just a start.
All the bigger cities have sizeable illegal populations. There's just no way of knowing what the total is.

You know what the hardest part I have with all this?
Is watching people like you complain about this then turn around and support policies that displace millions of people around the globe.
If you really wanna stop illegally immigration write your senators and tell them not to sanction South American countries to the point where they collapse and their populations have no choice but to either flee or starve. No amount of walls will save us from what's coming next. We must cut this off at the sources.
Venezuela, Guatemala, and Ecuador have been destroyed by Obama era policies and sanctions.
Source
If we removed them I guarantee a large portion of illegal immigrants would return home immediately.
Sad I have to add this as a disclaimer, but honestly that's a reflection of you all not me.
Understanding the causes and correlations of illegal immigration doesn't mean I support illegal immigration. It simply means I have taken the time and energy to look past the legacy media(FOX included) BS to see far enough up stream to see the actual source of the problem.

I think (havent slept well so ton of salt) if you included the (reaching into memory) the 10 million or so that was estimated to be here in the late 80s-mid 90s, then some claim including estimates on got aways we are pushing 10 million since 2020.
IF those numbers were both right we are in the realm of 30 million.
Nothing more than a wild arsed guess.

I don't advocate murder unless its deserved. Killing one's self is called "suicide". It can be done quickly, or slowly, by smoking, eating too much, being overly cynical, etc..
