.@SpeakerPelosi gives DACA kids the shiv americanthinker.com/blog/2019/02/n…

It's not just that the badly needed funds for a border wall were slashed to a mere $1 billion. (As a means of comparison, the California bullet train got $77 billion allotted for its construction, with an easy $3 billion of that from the feds.)

Actually, the DACA kids got nothing.

The border wall for the DREAMers deal, sometimes put forward by President Trump as a means of sweetening the wall funding for the Democrats, didn't figure in the recently completed negotiations for government funding.

Sorry, DACA kids. Instead of relief for you, which this bill might have entailed, you get additional migrant competition from south of the border, all hankering for the same amnesty you are looking for — and it's millions and millions of people.

Obviously, you aren't so very special, except as a talking point for Democrats. Democrats want you just where you are, living amnesty-to-amnesty, a few years here, a few years there, never moving forward with long-term plans in your lives.

All that ballot-harvesting for a Democratic takeover of Congress, and you got nothing.

This is astonishing, really: nothing for DACA, but a large amount of succor to human-smuggling cartels that profit off illegal immigration and a huge
welcome mat for millions of new illegals.

What we see here is the Democratic Party's vested interest in chaos — not a solution for one of its favorite protected classes, the DACA kids, but a dinner triangle to call for more illegal immigration.

Democrats under Pelosi (or Democrats under anyone) don't care about the plight of DREAMers;

their real interest is in an ever larger pool of illegals with no voting or citizenship rights, but lots of bureaucrat-hiring to deliver "services" to them, and greater congressional representation for Democrats as their numbers fill the precincts.

The only thing Democrats want for illegals is their numbers, and as for their interests, or their voice, it will continue to be turned over to activists and federally financed NGOs who purport to represent them.

This is the doing of Democrats.

This is "who they are," and it demonstrates in spades what their use for illegal aliens really is: a vast helot class with no official rights to bolster Democrat priorities, always staying illegal.

If I were an illegal alien of any kind, I'd be looking to Republicans for some kind of naturalization deal palatable to Republicans and focused on the rule-of-law front, over this newly revealed Democrat plan for them, with amnesty forever dangled out.
