Senator Proposes Giving Military Training and Weapons to Illegals

At this point, you’ve heard all about the invasion our southern border with Mexico has been experiencing since Joe Biden took the reins. But now, one Democratic senator wants to give all those millions of illegals weapons and military training.

Enter Senate Majority Whip Dick Durbin of Illinois.

As his title suggests, Durbin is no stranger to the Kool-Aid that’s been passed around the halls of Congress and the establishment that continues the façade that Biden is able-bodied and doing what is best for America. At 79, he’s been part of the very problem for more than four decades now.

So it should be no real surprise that someone such as Durbin is now suggesting that the solution to our national security issues is simply to give a whole host of people who have already broken our laws some of the best weapons and military training in the world.

Of course, his idea also includes all of those individuals full citizenship.

Durbin, also the Senate Judiciary Committee Chairman, said in his proposal, “Do you know what the recruiting numbers are at the Army, Navy, and the Air Force? They can’t reach their quotas each month. They can’t find enough people to join our military forces. And there are those who are undocumented who want the chance to serve and risk their lives for this country. Should we give them a chance? I think we should.”

Basically, his idea is supposed to be a two-for, solving two major national security issues at once. Let’s take the millions of people who have created a national security issue at our border and add them to our diminishing military ranks.

In his mind, I’m sure the former will simply disappear, and the latter will be bolstered. I’m sure he also thinks his plan is rather brilliant.

There’s just one problem. (Well, that’s not exactly accurate. But more on that later.)

These people, with their first act in America, proved to us that our laws and values mean nothing to them. They literally broke the law to get here.

How are we then supposed to trust that they will never break another law and swear loyalty to the United States? Even more than that, how can we expect them to be loyal to Americans and not just the harebrained government that currently sits at the helm?

Are we just supposed to hope that giving them citizenship here will ensure that they will do what’s right and right for the US from here on out?

Besides, as I mentioned, there are a few other issues. You know, like the fact that hundreds who have crossed over illegally have since been found to be criminals. So much for Biden’s all-inclusive background checks…

Many here in the US illegally, at this very moment, are convicted child molesters, rapists, and murderers. Unfortunately, it usually takes another such crime to prove as much, thanks to Biden’s lax border screenings.

And yet, Durbin is suggesting we train these individuals, give them superior weapons, and allow them to access a whole network of sensitive information – again, all trusting that they’ve changed their ways.

I must also point out that a growing number of illegals aren’t from Mexico and South America. Instead, they are coming from China, Russia, and the Middle East, nations known to not exactly be on our good side.

But suddenly, giving them access to our finest military installations will ensure that they are for us and not their past, right?

As many on social media rightfully stated, this is a disaster in the making. It might also be one of “the dumbest ideas” we’ve ever heard.

Instead of solving national security issues, this is liable to be America’s suicide bomb.
