Do criminal aliens actually pay into the system?

Maybe… possibly… some might pay sales taxes, and others might contribute through forged Social Security numbers…

But let’s not act like that offsets the massive costs they impose.

Here are the facts…

Criminal aliens drain resources.

Schools are overcrowded, hospitals are overrun, and taxpayers foot the bill.

They get bus tickets, housing, phones, food, and even financial assistance - all funded by hardworking Americans who are struggling themselves.

They’re getting benefits we, American citizens, don’t even have access to.

This crisis is an invasion of our borders and a complete disregard for our laws.

A house without walls is not a house. A house without locked doors is not secure. And a nation without borders and secure ports of entry isn’t a nation.

To those who are protesting…

Do you lock your doors at night to keep unwanted intruders out? If so, your entire argument is moot.

But of course we, the American people, already know that.

We also know the timing of your so-called “protests” is suspect at best.

Here’s reality…

We need to enforce our laws, secure the border, and reform the system so people can come here the right way - not by breaking the law and cutting in line.

Justice and fairness matter, and right now, Americans like me are getting the short end of the stick.

So you can protest all you want.

We’re done with the bullshit and now have an actual president sitting in office and a border czar who is fixing this shit.

Get bent ✌️

Democrat Congresswoman Sylvia Garcia and several Houston City Council members are teaching criminal aliens what to do if approached by ICE.

Each of them should be charged with Accessory.

Deport all criminal aliens.

To those who believe that phrase shows a lack of compassion, let me educate you…

Bringing criminal aliens to justice shows compassion to legal immigrants who paid their dues to come here legally and earned their way.

Bringing criminal aliens to justice shows compassion to struggling Americans whose hard earned money was taken from them against their will - by the progressive income tax system - to be redistributed to criminals who didn’t earn it.

Bringing criminal aliens to justice shows compassion to our veterans who are struggling to live and committing suicide at a rate of 40+ a day.

Bringing criminal aliens to justice shows compassion for all those sold into slavery and sex work by cartels - who have taken advantage of our open border to traffic women and children in the global sex trade.

Who else do you believe bringing criminal aliens to justice shows compassion for?

Some need to re-learn this:
Woman = singular.
Women = plural.

God’s not looking for perfection, He’s looking for surrender.

Heck, it's been rough on all of us!

My former pastor used to say, “be always transparent, but selectively vulnerable.”

There’s a lot of wisdom there, and I’ll be honest - I don’t know if what I’m about to share here is transparency or vulnerability…

But here it goes…

If you support or have been following me any length of time, you’ve heard me say that our founding fathers pledged to each other their lives, their fortunes, and their sacred honor for the cause of liberty…

And that I have resolved within myself to do the same.

That remains true to this day.

What you might not have known is that these last 4 years have taken its toll and cost me a lot… friends - family - relationships - money - and then some.

I’ve always tried to be open about the fact that as a candidate, I’m running to be your representative and your voice… not to be your pastor, your savior, your role model, or be some super hero.

As a flawed candidate, I’ve tried to remain humble… although I’m certain I’ve fallen short at times.

These past few months specifically have been very humbling and challenging for me, my emotional, mental, and spiritual health.

Like many of you, I struggle with whether I’m good enough, worthy enough, deserving enough, or qualified enough.

Even though it comes with the territory, one of the things I’ve struggled with has been the caricature people have created of me in their minds.

Truth is, I’ve had my ups and downs over the last 42.5 years of life on this planet - success and failures alike - but overall I’ve been extremely blessed.

But I’m also self-aware enough to acknowledge that I haven’t always been a good steward of what God has blessed me with.

I’ll spare you the details for now, but not forever.

That said, there’s an old saying “everyone has a plan until they get punched in the mouth.”

Sometimes you know with an absolute certainty what your next move is and what you’re gonna do - and it would take a literal act of God or a monumental life event to force you to step back and take pause, gain some perspective, and reflect.

Can anyone relate?

Because that’s been me these past several months.

That said, I want you to know that no matter what you’re going through - when it feels like all hope is lost - if the word “desperation” barely skims the surface of your circumstances…

I want you to know there is a God who loves you, who sees through the caricatures others have created of you… who sees through your pain and sees a purpose.

As long as you have breath in your lungs, you have a bounty on your life…

But that bounty was paid for - in full - by Christ on Mount Calvary.

And if the value of something is determined by what someone is willing to pay… and God bankrupted heaven for you… what does that say about your value?

So like me, even though you may feel inadequate, struggle with depression, and question your own value…

Take solace in the fact that you are dearly loved and God has predestined you before the foundation of the world - you are not here my accident.

You exist for such a time as this.

You are exactly where you need to be.

Whether you FEEL like it or not…

Because facts don’t care about your feelings… and Truth trumps facts.

Choose the Truth of who God says you are, not the feeling of who everyone else wants you to be.
