Many more such headlines can easily be found, but the three cited above are sufficient to give a sense of just how serious the illegal alien crisis in the United States has become as of September 2023.  Paraphrasing King Solomon, one could say, “Of the making of many illegal alien crisis headlines, there is no end.”  

So rather than quote more headlines at you of mass border crossings, illegal aliens raping and murdering Americans, human trafficking, and cartel drug running – all of which are an outrage to any Christian – let’s ask this question, who is driving the treasonous immigration disaster on our southern border?   

Reading only the headlines will never give you a sense of who’s driving America’s illegal alien disaster.  Even digging down into the stories themselves will not get you to the bottom of it.  This is true not only of reports from legacy media outlets but even of those from independent journalists. As an example of the latter, consider a recent video from popular YouTube news commentator Tim Pool.  In a recent video,[4] Pool talked about the ravages of the ongoing border crisis, saying, “What will make it [America] worse? Open borders where various random groups of people from a bunch of different countries come here to extract the resources, and that’s why you are seeing outrage in New York City.” Pool does a good job reporting on the magnitude of America’s border disaster, but he has nothing to say about the origin of the policy that is driving it.  And make no mistake about it.  The illegal alien assault on America’s southwest border is not, as some would have you believe, a natural phenomenon such as the sun rising in the east.  Neither is it the result of “climate change” as some government officials and even Pope Francis have claimed.[5]  Rather, it is the result of a deliberate government policy.

All practice – and this includes the practice of flooding America with illegal aliens – is the practice of some prior theory.  That is a simple yet important lesson that I learned from former Trinity Foundation President, Dr. John Robbins.  When you and I take some action, that action is always predicated on some prior idea.  To use a simple illustration, I brush my teeth when I get up in the morning because I have the idea that doing so will help prevent cavities and bad breath.  When it comes to the American illegal alien crisis, we need to seek the source of the ideas that have led to the flooding of our nation with millions of illegal aliens over just the past two and a half years.  Once we have located the source of those ideas, we likewise will have found the source of the crisis.

And what is the source of the theory that is causing the illegal alien assault on America?  The very first quote above gives it away, although it may not be obvious on the surface.  The source of the ideas driving America’s illegal alien disaster is the Roman Catholic Church-State.

Let’s go back and look at that first quote from Bill Melugin.  

It’s a total free for all in Eagle Pass right now.  Mass illegal crossing taking place for over an hour and a half.  Almost 2 years to the day we saw 15,000+ Haitians under the bridge in Del Rio, we now have thousands of predominantly Venezuelans gathering under Eagle Pass bridge.

I’d like to draw your attention to the third sentence in the quote where Melugin writes, “Almost 2 years to the day we saw 15,000+ Haitians under the bridge in Del Rio,[6] now we have thousands of predominantly Venezuelans gather under Eagle Pass bridge.”

Interesting, isn’t it?  Almost exactly two years apart, a similar event is taking place, the massing of huge numbers of migrants under a bridge on America’s southwest border.  Is there a linkage between them?  I think there is.  It’s not stated in Bill Melugin’s post or in any other post or article that I have read either from the mainstream media or from the independent media.  What is that linkage?  It’s National Migration Week (NMW) and the World Day of Migrants and Refugees (WDMR), two annual events celebrated by the Church-State every September.  The mass border rush of the Haitians occurred at the time of the 2021 NMW and WDMR, and the current crush of illegal aliens from Venezuela is taking place during NMW and the WDMR in 2023.   

Worth noting is that the United States is not the only nation experiencing a migrant surge in connection with the WDMR.  The Italian Island of Lampedusa is experiencing what could reasonably be called an invasion, with CNN reporting that 7,000 “migrants” (their term) had arrived in a period of two days, and this on an island with a population of 6,000.[7]  Worth noting is that Pope Francis himself paid a visit to the island in 2013 and recently commemorated his visit with a letter to Archbishop Alessandro Damiano.[8]

Now one would suppose that some reporter out there would draw a connection between NMW, the WDMR, and illegal alien surges on America’s southwest border.  But in all the pieces that I have read – I do not claim to have read them all, but I do follow the immigration issue closely – I have yet to see one person draw that connection. 

During the COVID lockdowns, one of the leading opponents of the mRNA vaccines was pathologist Dr. Ryan Cole.  Dr. Cole had a favorite saying he would use when challenged about why others did not see the health problems caused by the vaccines that he did.  Dr. Cole would answer, “You cannot find that for which you do not look.” 

That’s true in medical science, and it’s true spiritually as well.  The Lord must give people eyes to see and ears to hear the truth or they will miss it.  For over a hundred years now, the American Protestant church has been blinded to the present reality of the papal Antichrist and his evil deeds and thus fails to see his work, even as he sets about destroying their country right in front of their noses, or “in their presence” as the prophet Isaiah put it, via an illegal alien invasion of historic proportions.   

There’s another possible reason for the failure of the American media to draw proper connections between immigration events such as the recent border surge and the policies and politics of the Roman Catholic Church: fear of criticizing Rome.  It seems highly unlikely to this author, given Rome’s open and repeated encouragement of mass, illegal immigration, that the nation’s entire press corps is ignorant of the central role the Roman Church-State plays in this phenomenon.  Yet there is nothing but thunderous silence from the press, both the legacy media and independent news organizations.  Perhaps the people who run these organizations are more solicitous of being labeled “anticatholic” or offending supporters and advertisers than they are about speaking the truth concerning Rome and its seditious immigration activities.
