It's Showdown Time in Liberal Dreamland

In America, the Constitution tasks Congress with setting immigration policy, not the president  A judge from the judicial branch ruled this week that President Obama overstepped his authority in "protecting" on paper millions of people who had come here illegally, not following standard immigration rules for families and children.  A collection of states tasked with enforcing immigration law locally brought the lawsuit, and won.

 They argued that Obama didn’t have the authority to create DACA because it circumvented Congress. The states also argued that the program drains their educational and healthcare resources.

Now White liberals will be called out.  Not white people as a while, but the liberal White elites, who preach inclusion, diversity and the sharing of all resources, until.. their own families become involved.  Then...

it's off to thw White schools and White suburbs with them!  No mixed, integrated, working-class, rental and commercial neighborhoods for them to live in.  So many White liberals flock in kind  Honestly.  We see you.  Nttawwt.  Better schools, safer streets, more community where you know the people running around in your child's neighborhood...

DACA will ask White liberals how much they are willing to really Share... to spend their political capital.  On "protecting" non-citizens who did not follow U.S. immigration laws and have exhausted their appeals to be deported?  (Even if they don't remember their homelands where they were born before coming to the United States?)

It's much like the Afghanistan boondoggle in the news of late:  Bail out the decades of failed policy mistakes by doddering on, or cutting the losses, swallowing the pain down hard, and essentially enforcing the laws -- of warfare, immigration, nature.   Resources are limited.  The borders are not secure.  Throwing more and more  public money after poor policies only makes the inevitable end even harder.

 I would ask Afghanistan war defenders what buying more time for American troops was supposed to do?  20 years you had.  You failed.  It was never a winnable or defined invasion to begin with.  Are you hoping to establish a permanent military base in the Middle East, to police the region?  America cannot afford that.  Maybe China?

I would ask White liberals to finally speak up on their True Values:  none of them are really pushing for the Senate to let in all the unauthorized people here currently referred to as non-citizens.  They don't want Washington to change hands, yet again, which would happen if Congress tried to pass an immigration reform bill without first enforcing the borders -- showing that they can use technology effectively to monitor every person coming into our country.

We can't.  We failed.  There is no 1980s immigration reform bill on the horizone.

Now it gets tough:  too many people too few public resources.  Not where you're at, of course, White liberals... In fact, it amuses me, in the interests of equally parcelling out the aid dollars via America counties for "pandemic relief" what some are going to to figure out what to do with the windfall...

Other counties, and school districts, are strapped  I am glad the states sued, who have to pick up the tab for the White elites with big plans but who are not willing to share honestly and seat their own children next to Spanish-speaking newcomers  Not that there's anything wrong with French, but...

Are we all in this together, or not?

Like it or not, the White libs will be forced to show their hands by the Brown voters and colleagues who share their workplace air.  Push the Senate to pass something, or admit that the Law must be followed?

 It's actually a good thing:  the three-branch government in action.  Congress has done nothing for too long, the White elites have talked a good game while their political actions were "covered" by political inaction...

If the deportations begin, either we start building more homes, schools, streets and ways to acculturate the newcomers, or we admit that mistakes were made and protections promised do not always come true. That's reality in America's Adultland where very few White liberals really live today.
