<p>Elect strong conservative leaders in your state — or watch it go the way of New York City. That’s the unmistakable warning conservatives should take from New York voters nominating a Hamas sympathizer and self-proclaimed socialist for mayor.</p>
<p>How could this happen just one generation after 9/11? How does the city that suffered most from jihadist terrorism now embrace a foreign-born Islamist who wants to “<a class="rm-stats-tracked" href="https://www.theblaze.com/columns/opinion/new-york-citys-likely-next-mayor-wants-to-globalize-the-intifada">globalize the intifada</a>”?</p>
<p class="pull-quote">When <strong>Donald Trump</strong> calls for more farm labor from the third world — so long as the workers aren’t &#8216;murderers&#8217; — he misses the deeper issue.&#8230; <a href="https://illinoisfamilyaction.org/2025/07/dont-let-rural-america-become-the-next-new-york-city/" class="read-more">Continue Reading </a></p>]]></description>

<p>The next time you’re fondled at the airport by a TSA agent, look around. You may very well see foreign nationals ushered through security without proper documentation and disregarding every TSA rule. While <strong>Joe Biden</strong> pretends that millions of invaders from 150 countries are a natural occurrence, his administration is using taxpayer-funded nongovernmental organizations to disperse tens of thousands of them throughout the country.</p>
<p>This cannot be allowed to continue. Why won’t Republicans pledge to put an end to it by refusing to fund one more penny of this scheme with the budget deadline looming?&#8230; <a href="https://illinoisfamilyaction.org/2023/12/foreign-invaders-ride-the-taxpayer-express/" class="read-more">Continue Reading </a></p>]]></description>

<p>In episode 30 of his newest production “<a href="https://twitter.com/TuckerCarlson" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Tucker on X</a>” program, host Tucker Carlson interviewed two guests, <strong>Todd Bensman</strong> and <strong>Dominik Tarczynski</strong>, whose discussions revolved around the effects of illegal immigration. In a tweet, Tucker said:</p>
<blockquote><p><span style="background-color: #ffff99;">What&#8217;s happening at the southern border isn’t just an invasion, but a crime. The politicians and non-governmental organizations (NGOs) responsible for it are acting criminally and should be punished accordingly. </span></p></blockquote>
<p>Tucker shows a video clip of a crowd of immigrants running into our country, and in the background you hear the chant, &#8220;si se puede&#8221; &#8211; which is &#8220;yes we can&#8221; in Spanish. &#8230; <a href="https://illinoisfamilyaction.org/2023/10/tucker-open-borders-crime-and-terrorism/" class="read-more">Continue Reading </a></p>]]></description>

<p>The preamble of the U.S. Constitution establishes the purpose of the government: to provide for the common defense and secure the blessings of liberty. Today, we have a government that subverts the common defense of the people, for whom they also abrogate the blessings of liberty. Americans are treated like criminals for exercising basic civil rights during the new COVID regime, while illegal aliens who invaded our border are being invited back at taxpayer expense!&#8230; <a href="https://illinoisfamilyaction.org/2021/06/the-biden-administration-is-making-illegal-aliens-a-superior-class-over-citizens/" class="read-more">Continue Reading </a></p>]]></description>

<p>Over the next few weeks the news cycle will be paralyzed by an impeachment trial that is essentially about foreign interference in our politics. However, the Trump administration has an opportunity to act on one of the most sinister foreign influences in our country, namely, birth tourism, being used by — you guessed it — Russia and China. If foreign influence is of such great concern to Democrats, shouldn’t we all agree to stop the practice of awarding those who lie to get into the country or who infiltrate our border with the ultimate prize of American citizenship?&#8230; <a href="https://illinoisfamilyaction.org/2020/01/foreign-influence-how-trump-can-shut-down-the-birth-tourism-scam/" class="read-more">Continue Reading </a></p>]]></description>

<p>The conclusions of a recent Center for Immigration Studies (CIS) paper were misinterpreted and misreported by some as claiming that Republicans would lose twenty-four seats in states that voted for <strong>Donald Trump</strong> as a result of the 2020 census. What the study actually said was that because we count legal non-citizens and illegal aliens in the Census for population (which determines how representation is apportioned), the <em>cumulative effects</em> of that are that Democrats have twenty-four more seats than they otherwise would’ve had we never counted non-citizens and illegals in the first place.&#8230; <a href="https://illinoisfamilyaction.org/2020/01/how-the-2020-census-will-change-the-u-s-house/" class="read-more">Continue Reading </a></p>]]></description>

<p>Here’s a novel question: We are all struggling with <a href="https://www.conservativereview.com/news/venture-socialist-health-care-america-employer-insurance-plans-now-cost-much-car/">a cumbersome and expensive health care industry</a>, trying to find ways to fix a broken system for Americans. Why on earth would we invite the rest of the world to access our system for free?</p>
<p>That was essentially the question pro-sovereignty figures in the Trump administration asked before they pushed for the <a class="external" href="https://www.whitehouse.gov/presidential-actions/presidential-proclamation-suspension-entry-immigrants-will-financially-burden-united-states-healthcare-system/" rel="noopener noreferrer">new rule announced</a> Friday to bar admission of those immigrants who show up at our hospitals without insurance or any way to pay out of pocket.&#8230; <a href="https://illinoisfamilyaction.org/2019/10/trump-moves-to-protect-taxpayers-from-immigrant-medical-bills-lets-do-the-same-at-the-border-too/" class="read-more">Continue Reading </a></p>]]></description>

<p>Extreme leftists such as U.S. Reps. <strong>Rashida Tlaib </strong>(D-MI), and <strong>Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez</strong> (D-NY), were elected to the U.S. House of Representatives this year. They have a lot of radical policy ideas they’d love to see enacted, but the reality is that they are powerless to implement any of them as mere individual members of Congress. But a dangerous and erroneous premise has persisted in our political system that if somehow those individuals got appointed to federal judgeships, they would have the ability to unilaterally enact any policy they choose by granting legal groups standing in court cases – and have that decision be regarded as the law of the land.&#8230; <a href="https://illinoisfamilyaction.org/2019/01/whats-your-solution-to-rampaging-judicial-tyranny/" class="read-more">Continue Reading </a></p>]]></description>

<p>CNN has <a href="http://www.cnn.com/2017/08/17/us/hate-groups-us-map-trnd/index.html">published</a> a list of “hate groups” currently operating in the United States, relying on an extremely partisan analysis from the far-left Southern Poverty Law Center (SPLC).</p>
<p>Several truly extremist groups populate the list, such as the Ku Klux Klan, New Black Panthers, Nation of Islam, and others.</p>
<p>But along with the neo-Nazi and Islamic extremist groups on the list, the SPLC has lumped in as “hate groups” mainstream, well-known conservative individuals and organizations who merely speak out about the threat of radical Islam.&#8230; <a href="https://illinoisfamilyaction.org/2017/08/mainstream-conservatives-are-on-cnns-hate-group-list/" class="read-more">Continue Reading </a></p>]]></description>
