There’s a crack in the system.
A small, lightening bolt-shaped splinter in the foundation of our nation that has been imperceptibly widening, ever so slightly, with each new election cycle.
What was once a hard-to-see fissure is now a gap. Its jagged mouth opening peering over an exposed sinkhole that is much deeper than we could have imagined existing beneath our feet.
But it’s been there for years.
Just waiting to open up and swallow whole the land of Western civilization.
And it’s not waiting anymore.
The crack began with the little wins – city councils and school boards were easy targets before moving on to Governor races and Congressional seats. Tiny policy shifts and reallocation of funding to pro-immigration NGOs flew under the radar. It’s also probably why no one realized we were spending $150 billion on illegal immigrants annually as a nation.
Many little moves go unnoticed compared to the big splashy kind.
The goal was to get individuals into the smaller positions of power that no one really cared about or paid attention to. That is, until things like COVID, transgenderism, DEI, and sexually explicit books in school libraries became public issues, focusing an unwelcome spotlight on ideology shifts and policy changes at the local level and – more importantly – who was making them.
They didn’t consider the possibility of making parents angry over what their kids were being exposed to at school. That was a fatal miscalculation. It pulled the alarm on the appearance of this previously unnoticed crack that exposed the loss of American identity and America-first principled people in our government.
That’s when we collectively started paying a little more attention to what was going on in local government and who was sitting in those silly council seats.
Before that, local elections and randomly numbered ballot propositions seemed inconsequential.
And that’s what they were counting on.
Our apathy created opportunity.
An opportunity to move from positions of local power to national power, the goal being to hold national elected office and be directly involved in the day-to-day of federal government.
They want to be policymakers.
When you control the policies, laws, and institutions, you control the future.
This is what they did with immigration.
They planted small seeds by putting agents acting on behalf of open-border ideologies who hold anti-American sentiments in lesser places of power, implementing things like pro-illegal immigration policies in small towns or cities and normalizing it. Then copying and pasting the same plan for the next town over.
Small Town U.S.A. became Little Haiti, Little Somalia, Little Mexico, Little India.
The list goes on.
Everyone recalls Springfield, Ohio – a town of approximately 58,000 Americans – which was flooded with nearly 20,000 Haitians thanks to Biden’s atrocious immigration policies. Suddenly a Midwestern town full of American history became one with deadly car accidents and missing pets being cooked for dinner as if we were living in a third world country. There was no American pride or understanding of American history, laws, or culture. There was no reverence for the flag or feelings of American patriotism. There was no integration or assimilation.
There were free food stamps, free housing, and free medical care.
We imported lawlessness under the guise of empathy and find ourselves shocked when society devolves into chaos.
We have lost pro-American representation in our nation, like a frog in boiling water not realizing it’s being cooked alive.
It’s the basic progressive grassroots momentum strategy that Saul Alinsky instructed his disciples to follow in “Rules for Radicals.”
The concept is simple: plant the seeds to the ideological weeds in silence, water them quietly, and watch them suddenly sprout and take over the well manicured garden you want to destroy with a bang.
The more destructive the better.
The reality is that under Obama and Biden, Americans had become generally lazy and stopped tending to the proverbial garden that is our nation.
We allowed what could have easily been plucked out as weeds early on become vicious trees with gnarled roots that have burrowed under the foundation of our houses of government, getting stronger with every year that passes.
By the time the crack in the foundation first appeared, slightly buckling the pavement of our City Halls and Senate Buildings – signaling we had a problem – it was already too late.
I’m talking about people like Representative Delia Ramirez.
Ramirez recently made headlines after publicly saying she was a proud Guatemalan before being an American, despite being a sitting member of U.S. Congress, while attending the Panamerican Congress in Mexico.
Ramirez and other “Squad” members, such as Reps. Ilhan Omar of Minnesota and Rashida Tlaib of Michigan apparently had no issue supporting and speaking at an organization that has previously announced that “capitalism is the virus” and that they “aspire to eradicate capitalism everywhere.”
The cherry on top?
Ramirez’s husband, Boris Hernandez, is an illegal immigrant. Hernandez was a DACA recipient and Ramirez seems to be quite proud of that fact.
Alarmingly, Ramirez is also the Vice-Ranking Member of the Homeland Security Committee and sits on the Veterans Affairs Committee.
Why on earth is someone who publicly states they actively promote breaking the law and does not have allegiance to America above all other nations – a direct violation of the oath she took when being sworn in to Congress, by the way – sitting on one committee to secure the American homeland and another to help honor the veterans who have fought to protect it?
Make it make sense.
Ramirez and others like her want to destroy our nation’s foundation and illegal immigration was their golden ticket.
This is because everyone knows that best way to destroy something is from within.
The irony would be laughable if not so utterly terrifying.
A wonderful op-ed in USA Today by Ingrid Jacques got to the heart of the matter, explaining the issue was that Ramirez “…didn’t just celebrate her Guatemalan roots. Before world leaders, she elevated the country that her parents fled above the nation she was elected to represent…. It’s hard to think of another country where a first-generation citizen could go from poverty to the halls of Congress. That’s not enough, however, to win Ramirez’s loyalty over the corrupt country her parents escaped. It makes one wonder what members of the U.S. Congress were doing there in the first place, but I digress.”
But we know exactly how Ramirez became a member of U.S. Congress.
She started small.
Ramirez infiltrated the system at the local level through progressive NGO funded nonprofits and neighborhood association boards. She spent 18 years as a non-profit leader at the Center for Changing Lives, Common Cause and Community Renewal Society, was board chair for both the Latin United Community Housing Association (LUCHA) and Logan Square Neighborhood Association (LSNA), then in 2018 ran for State Representative of the 4th House District of Illinois, becoming Majority Floor Leader and co-founder of the Illinois Progressive Caucus.
When you look at her record on a local level, nothing she’s done on the national stage should be of any surprise.
As State Representative, Ramirez was already at work for an America-last agenda, passing legislation that gave taxpayer Medicaid money to people in her district regardless of immigration status, securing over $450 million to build “affordable housing” which was no doubt given to illegal immigrants, and creating an elected school board in the City of Chicago.
She grew the bureaucracy and gave money to illegals.
Pretty straightforward. Pretty anti-American.
She was already watering the seeds and spreading the roots of idealogical rot long before becoming a sitting member of Congressional Committees.
This echoes others who defend law breaking and anti-American beliefs, like Minnesota House Representative Kaohly Vang, who recently admitted that both she and her parents came to the U.S. illegally.
Or guys like Ismail Mohamed in Ohio, who moved to Columbus from Somalia when he was 12. Mohamed graduated from Ohio State University’s law school, became the first Somali-American to practice law in Ohio, and is now one of the two first Somali-Americans to serve in the Ohio State General Assembly.
Mohamed just lobbied for Columbus to temporarily rename an American street after Somalian national icon Sayid Mohamed Abdullah Hassan. He also recently gave a speech from the Statehouse in Somali, calling out around 20 federal, state and local Somali-American politicians in U.S. government to remind them of “their shared interest in improving lives of “our people.”
And he doesn’t mean American people.
He means Somalians.
Mohamed is supposed to be an American first, not a Somalian in American clothing who is working on behalf of his native African country instead of the one who gave him freedom, a home, an education, and a career.
But, alas.
The problem of American-last and illegal immigrant-first local governance is everywhere. From sea to shining sea, it chips away at the bedrock of Western civilization’s beautiful law and order.
In Nashville earlier this year, Metro Council Members Zulfat Suara and Sandra Sepulveda helped instruct illegal immigrants on how to avoid or hide from law enforcing ICE agents.
California has done the same, with LA City Council protecting illegals by voting for Sanctuary City status, and going billions in deficit over funding for illegals despite having American veterans living on the streets and American children in foster care.
Arizona politicians like Democrat State Sen. Analise Ortiz contribute to the chaos, posting the whereabouts of ICE agents on social media, putting agent’s lives in danger.
Allentown, Pennsylvania’s City Council adopted a policy that “bars police and other city employees from supporting or assisting ICE and other immigration officials unless ordered by a federal judge.”
These are the kind of people and policies that protect child rapists, human traffickers, and murderers who are in our country illegally.
The scarier fact is that, eventually, these locally elected officials move to the national stage.
As of 2025, at least 80 lawmakers are foreign born or have at least one parent who was born in another country, including 61 in the House and 19 in the Senate – the majority being members of the Democrat Party and wildly in favor of open border policies.
Shocker.
One interesting fact to note? According to research, legislators with “a family immigrant history cast more pro-immigration votes. They also speak more favorably about immigration in speeches on the floor of Congress. Importantly, our findings show that international immigration specifically matters, not just migration in general. Legislators with histories of domestic migration within the United States do not exhibit the same pro-immigration behavior as those with international immigrant backgrounds.”
A perfect example of this progressive anti-American takeover from the ground up can be seen in an article published in 2024 about a program called Elevate in Grand Island, Nebraska.
Free programs for “foreign born” locals such as Elevate provide childcare, questionable pro-immigrant history lessons, and – tellingly – don’t ask immigration status. They also publicly acknowledge their ultimate end goal is having the migrants who go through their program run for office.
The article told the story of an immigrant named Ekram Saleh, a Sudanese native who had just become a U.S. citizen, as she “sat in a classroom, surrounded by immigrants from countries like Mexico, Guatemala and Sudan. They listened as the county’s election commissioner talked about voting…”
Saleh was told how to register to vote and encouraged to volunteer as a poll worker in elections – which she has now done for three elections. She also “helps translate for Arabic speakers, and tells her friends, go vote… She’s convinced three other friends – all Sudanese and Arabic speakers – to volunteer at the polls… one day she wants to run for office.”
Who wants to guess which way Saleh and her non-English speaking friends are going to vote or what kind of progressive policies they are going to champion as political candidates with non-American identities?
One Grand Island Public School board member, Carlos Barcenas, commented on the unassimilated migrants “….There are a lot of people that are very involved, whether it’s a PTO or they’re a board member at a nonprofit, or a committee. They’re there. It’s just not such a public position.”
This is intentional.
Change the community, change the politics.
Make no mistake, the good ‘ole Cornhusker state will have its cornfields supplanted at record speed with the invasion of those like the Elevate participants who want to plant their roots and change the American landscape altogether.
Programs like Elevate layout the blueprint for how open-border policy loving Democrat Representative Ilhan Omar got elected to office.
Omar started as a community nutrition educator, worked on state political campaigns, and eventually became Director of Policy initiatives of the Women Organizing Women Network – a similar organization to Elevate that encourages women from East Africa in America to “take on civic and political leadership roles.” She was able to start her political career by having influence in her local community.
Omar was granted refugee status in 1995, was naturalized as a citizen in 2000, and was eventually elected to represent Minnesota’s 5th Congressional District. A 2024 article from The Heritage Foundation titled “Ilhan Omar Brags About Advancing a Somalia First Agenda in Congress,” discussed how Omar repeatedly puts “her Somali ethnicity first” and thinks of herself “as a citizen of Somalia—and sees her job in Congress as representing the interests of the east African country and its government.”
Let’s not forget other less-discussed organizations from Democrats, like George Soros’ funded “Secretary of State Project” – an “American non-profit, progressive or liberal 527 political action committee focused on electing reform-minded progressive Secretaries of State in battleground states who typically oversee the election process.” These races often only need small dollar infusions – from $65,000 to $250,000 – and are overlooked for the more glamorous campaigns, making them easy prey for the power hungry Left.
So not only are they propping up wildly progressive anti-American candidates, they are also pumping money into statewide elections for the very offices that control things like election integrity.
Soros and his cronies have been locking down the races from start to finish.
And we wonder why we have election problems.
The Democrats have been playing the grassroots game while the Republicans have been out to lunch. We are in need of a paradigmatic shift and for America-first candidates to run for local offices and boards, implementing policy that helps Make America Great Again.
Here’s the reality – whether named Ramirez, Ilhan, Vang, or Mohamed – they are all agents of the same enemy.
We have an invasion in our American government.
The locally planted seeds of politicians sitting in U.S. Congress have sprouted and the aggressive weeds of anti-American policy have bloomed.
Our nation’s garden and its precious natural resources are being sucked dry and carelessly pollenated with allergy-inducing blooms.
Hungry possums and raccoons have appeared.
But no geese or swans.
Because…. Haitians.
It’s a domino effect that has warmly invited new pests and insects like Mexican and South American cartels and Chinese drug smugglers, and human traffickers to climb over the garden walls, tear up our flowerbeds, and leave destruction in their wake.
Let’s just say that the nation’s landscaping bill has gone up astronomically and we can no longer to afford to maintain the madness.
This is why President Trump’s policies to Make America Safe Again, deport illegal immigrant criminals, and reclaim the American government as one by the American people and for the American people is so vital.
America needs her government back in the hands of proud Americans who love this country and would fight for her above all others, no matter the cost.
Then – and only then – can we repave and lay back the stones of the foundation while taking precautionary measures to prevent the same kind of invasive species from causing such extensive damage in our houses of government ever again.
