Andrews: Every illegal immigrant counted helps the left keep power

By Russ Andrews | Guest Commentary, Rocky Mountain Voice Illegal immigrants are already stealing elections. Just not in the way you might think. Since Biden took office, at least 14 million illegal immigrants have entered the country—on top of the estimated 20 million already living here prior to 2021. Most of us conservatives believe that promoting this foreign invasion of our border was designed to allow those 34 million illegals to eventually vote. In the last election, 56% of Latino immigrants voted Democrat, while 42% voted Republican. The average Congressional district holds approximately 760,000 “residents.’ Notice I wrote “residents,” not citizens. The Census is held every 10 years; the next census will be taken in 2030. EVERYBODY gets counted, whether they are here leg...

Ryun: Biden’s Border Collapse Was Designed to Transform America

By Ned Ryun | Real Clear Politics In light of the Los Angeles riots, certain corporate propagandists are pushing a sympathetic fiction that it was the Biden administration making mistakes and bungling its way through border and immigration policy that got us to this stage. They’re painting a picture of well-meaning Democrats caught in a political riptide – clumsy, unprepared, overwhelmed, a bit naïve but well-meaning. Of course, this narrative is nothing more than a Big Lie, an effort to use corporate media’s reach to rewrite history in real time in hopes that the American electorate will forget the facts and history. Because what we are witnessing in Los Angeles, and what we saw at our southern border for the last four years before Trump won reelection, is not a mistake. It was a de...

‘We followed the rules’—Why Trump’s immigration message is winning over immigrant voters

By Martha McHardy | Newsweek New data shows a growing number of immigrant voters are backing Donald Trump and his hardline immigration agenda—marking a dramatic reversal from past elections. Why It Matters The Trump administration has pledged to carry out the largest mass deportation in U.S. history and has conducted numerous ICE raids, some of which have swept up people with proper documentation. Trump's aggressive stance on immigration has resulted in widespread protests, especially in Los Angeles, where Trump authorized the deployment of 2,000 National Guard troops to Los Angeles after reported violence against law enforcement, specifically ICE agents carrying out deportation raids in the city. But despite the unrest, data suggests that Trump's messagi...

Garbo: The Left’s silence says more than their spin ever could

By C. J. Garbo | Guest Commentary, Rocky Mountain Voice They don’t talk about egg prices anymore. Inflation has disappeared from their daily talking points. You’ll hear nothing about tariffs, the stock market, or the border crisis they once screamed about nonstop. Why? Because those issues - once weaponized against President Trump - have all improved under his leadership. And with Trump back in office, once again tackling these challenges head-on, the left has lost the argument - and they know it. Every one of these “crises” was once a cudgel. The media elevated each one with the clear goal of assigning blame to President Trump. Yet every time, Trump didn’t run from the issue - he took it head-on, and in full public view. Trump Faced the Fire - and Fixed What They Broke Let’...

“Time to end retirement”: Fabbricatore joins fight to rescue migrant children as ORR Senior Advisor

By Shaina Cole | Contributing Writer, Rocky Mountain Voice On May 19, 2025, retired ICE official John Fabbricatore stepped into a new role as Senior Advisor at the Office of Refugee Resettlement, just as the agency faces intense scrutiny for failing to track unaccompanied migrant children after release. Fabbricatore’s #FindTheKids hashtag signals a push to close those gaps, but the road ahead is steep. Fabbricatore announced his appointment on X, stating, “Time to end retirement. I was sworn in at the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services (HHS) on May 19, 2025, as a Senior Advisor for the Office of Refugee Resettlement (ORR) at the Immediate Office of the Secretary in the Senior Executive Service.”  https://twitter.com/johne_fabb/status/1924576960371421184 ORR ...

Fort Carson strykers head to U.S.-Mexico border to help with immigration enforcement

By Mary Shinn | The Gazette In brisk and windy weather Tuesday, Fort Carson soldiers eased roughly 20-ton Strykers onto flat rail cars for their trip to the U.S.-Mexico border to help with illegal immigration enforcement.  The slow roll of the eight-wheeled Strykers was followed by the clanking of chains as soldiers tied down the vehicles. Other 2nd Stryker Brigade Combat Team equipment, including jeeps, small trucks, fuel, water and IT vehicles, waited in rows alongside the Strykers for loading.  Over two days, crews expected to load two trains with vehicles. While Strykers can travel by truck or convoy, rail is more efficient.  The brigade plans to send 105 Strykers with advanced intelligence, surveillance and reconnaissance systems to help border patrol agents, an ...

How the Biden-Harris Administration used the media to convince voters it fixed the border crisis

By Ryan Mills | National Review After years of bad news about illegal immigrants swarming the border and flooding American cities, the mainstream media headlines couldn’t have been much better for Vice President Kamala Harris in the runup to Election Day. “Illegal border crossings fell in July to lowest level in four years,” the Washington Post declared in August. “Migrant crossings at the US’ southern border drop again,” CNN reported in September. “Illegal migration at US border drops to lowest level since 2020,” read a USA Today headline in early October.
