I'm Surrounded by Immigrants

By Dennis Brent Melby

I’ve spent the week talking with some of the finest citizens in Montgomery County. Great folks who came here for a better life and helped to make MoCo and the USA a much better place because of their experience, beliefs, hard work and family values.

We had hundreds at our celebration of the GOP Lunar New Year in Gaithersburg. Many from communist China so grateful to live in the USA – and so productive paying taxes, raising kids and providing for those less fortunate – many of them native born Americans.

Saturday at Coffee with the Chairman in Gaithersburg again, from Russia, Bangladesh, Germany – all folks who’d come here with their families to escape the confines of the old world and form a better Union here in a democratic, capitalist and often very religious new world. What did they have in common? They all came legally. Did they fear deportation? No…not one of them. The hype of a threatening ICE was not a reality – only a story from the left wing media and a opposing Party seeking to use if for political advantage in the next election. Sad. The left-wing media drops the word "Illegal" and calls everyone immigrants. Why? READ ON

One story, one network, two reactionsIf you read the failing Washington Post they never say illegal immigrant…it’s always immigrants are targeted, they drop the word illegal. That’s on purpose, to cause fear in many, and it’s not the truth. If Democracy Dies in Darkness then we can also say Truth Suffers with Bad Reporting. We welcome legal, hard working, productive and democratic immigrants to our shores – not to change the voting rolls to favor our Party, but to help us build a better country and escape the madness of their often socialist homelands.

Our mid-term elections are coming. We could loose all our progress if we loose the Congress. It will be impeach, don’t convict, impeach, don’t convict, impeach, don’t convict, shut down the government, you’ve seen it before. Even if you didn’t vote in 2024 vote this year – like your future depends on it.  It does, your future, my future and the future of all America.
