Democrats are like that guy running the three-card Monte game in Times Square at 3:00 a.m.. They talk non-stop for the express purpose of distracting whatever sucker plunked down $20 to “find the red queen.” The subject of the talking doesn’t matter, only the distraction it creates. “Hey, check out that guy’s shoes!” That keeps the scam going.

That’s how Democrats are when it comes to illegal immigration — talking non-stop without ever saying anything, in the hope that no one will notice that every single American murdered by an illegal alien would be alive today had the immigration laws just been enforced as written.

Laken Riley, for example, would still be alive. So would Kate Steinle, Rachel Morin, and every single other American murdered by illegal aliens.

Morin’s killer, 24-year-old rapist Victor Martinez-Hernandez, was convicted Monday of murdering and raping her. The illegal immigrant from El Salvador will spend the rest of his life in prison, and Rachel’s family will spend the rest of their lives missing her, only because Democrats allowed in all comers who marched across the U.S.-Mexico border in 2022.

Democrats insist that immigrant commit fewer crimes than Americans do, as if that would comfort victims' families. But there are two truths they refuse to confront. The first is that using immigration law to keep out killers prevents every single murder they would otherwise........
