In recent years the term has been used to describe young people who have been brought to America illegally. But \u2014 taking a leaf from the Democratic playbook \u2014 I would like to suggest a change of use. From now on can we use the term \u201cDreamers\u201d to describe anyone who believes that this country\u2019s border system can go on as it is?\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>The sort of people who think that it is sustainable to have millions of illegal immigrants flood into the United States every year. The people who think that having any border at all is basically bigoted.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>Such views used to be held only by a \u201cprogressive\u201d fringe. But today they are mainstream on the Democratic side. That is how far the Democratic Party has moved.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>It isn\u2019t so long ago that they thought differently. In 1996 the party\u00b4s platform said, \u201cToday\u00b4s Democratic Party also believes we must remain a nation of laws. We cannot tolerate illegal immigration and we must stop it.\u201d Just consider the difference between that platform of only a quarter of a century ago and the same party today. Today that statement would be said to be \u201crestrictionist,\u201d bigoted and probably racist.\u00a0<\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"%E2%80%98Asylum_seekers\"><\/span>\u2018Asylum seekers\u2019\u00a0<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>In only a few decades illegal migrants have become \u201cundocumented migrants,\u201d \u201cDreamers\u201d and much more. The Democratic Party has moved from worrying about illegal immigration toward encouraging it. As they did when they stopped construction of the border wall. Like their left-wing counterparts in Europe, they seem to believe that anyone trying to break into the country is an \u201casylum seeker\u201d and that countries like the US have a duty to take in anyone in the world who wants to move here.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>Just one of the problems of this is that it is unsustainable.

In a poll last year, members of the progressive left said \u2014 by a whopping 86% \u2014 that they agreed with the phrase \u201cPeople who have immigrated into the US illegally <a href=\"https:\/\/buradabiliyorum.com\/en\/category\/general\/\" data-internallinksmanager029f6b8e52c=\"3\" title=\"General\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">general<\/a>ly make the communities they live in better.\u201d They said that because for them it was all just theory. Only people in places like Texas had to experience it in reality.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>Well now we are all getting that opportunity. And the left\u2019s ideas about open borders are suddenly being tested across the nation.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>Governor Greg Abbott of Texas is completely within his rights to try to distribute migrants around the country. If politicians in Washington are going to grandstand about migration then why should it only be Texans who suffer the consequences?\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>So the buses have started to arrive. In DC and New York. And even though this is just a taste of what could come, already left-wing officials in both cities are grandstanding and whining. Radical leftists like New York City Council member Shahana Hanif are actually encouraging the move. This week she boasted about standing at the Port Authority Bus Terminal to \u201cwelcome asylum seekers.\u201d Note the change of language there. On their bus journey to New York these people turn from illegal immigrants to \u201casylum seekers.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"New_Yorks_share\"><\/span>New York\u2019s share\u00a0<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" width=\"1024\" height=\"682\" src=\"https:\/\/nypost.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2022\/08\/migrants-port-authority-2.jpg?w=1024\" alt=\"A group of migrants walks out of Port Authority Bus Terminal from Texas.\" class=\"wp-image-23430993\" srcset=\"https:\/\/nypost.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2022\/08\/migrants-port-authority-2.jpg?quality=75&amp;strip=all&amp;w=1535 1536w, https:\/\/nypost.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2022\/08\/migrants-port-authority-2.jpg?quality=75&amp;strip=all 1024w, https:\/\/nypost.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2022\/08\/migrants-port-authority-2.jpg?quality=75&amp;strip=all&amp;w=512 512w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\"\/><figcaption>A group of migrants walks out of Port Authority Bus Terminal from Texas.<\/figcaption><figcaption><span class=\"credit\">YUKI IWAMURA\/AFP via Getty Images<\/span><\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p>Other New York officials are complaining that the whole thing is unfair on them. Since May, New York has received over 4,000 illegal immigrants from Texas. You can see the results at the DHS shelters in the city, where Central and South American families with large numbers of children hopelessly wander in and out. You can see it at the city\u2019s homeless shelters, which are now feeling the strain from all these people from outside the state. And it isn\u2019t as though everything was easy in New York before this.\u00a0<\/p>\n<aside class=\"single__inline-module alignleft\">\n    <\/aside>\n<p>But what did the left-wing open-borders people think would h<a href=\"https:\/\/buradabiliyorum.com\/en\/category\/download-scripts-themes-apps\/\" data-internallinksmanager029f6b8e52c=\"9\" title=\"Download Scripts &amp; Themes &amp; Apps\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">app<\/a>en?

Because I saw this happen once before, in Europe during the 2015 migration crisis.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>Then, as now, the continent\u2019s southern border was open. Then, as now, people who just wanted a better life started to flood in. And because the left\u2019s narrative held, for a time, the borders opened up. Suddenly every economic migrant from Africa and the Middle East was called an asylum seeker. Soon the thousands of migrants turned into hundreds of thousands and then millions. Yet that transformative year in Europe is now an average year in numbers of people illegally entering the US.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>Then, as now, people in the places where the migrants arrived bore the brunt of the left\u2019s policies. But soon the migrants had to be dispersed elsewhere. They were sent north to Germany, Scandinavia and the other countries that had boasted about their open-border ideals.\u00a0<\/p>\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" width=\"1024\" height=\"682\" src=\"https:\/\/nypost.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2022\/08\/migrants-port-authority.jpg?w=1024\" alt=\"Bags of humanitarian supplies are seen outside Port Authority Bus Terminal as migrants arrive in New York City. \" class=\"wp-image-23430999\" srcset=\"https:\/\/nypost.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2022\/08\/migrants-port-authority.jpg?quality=75&amp;strip=all&amp;w=1535 1536w, https:\/\/nypost.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2022\/08\/migrants-port-authority.jpg?quality=75&amp;strip=all 1024w, https:\/\/nypost.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2022\/08\/migrants-port-authority.jpg?quality=75&amp;strip=all&amp;w=512 512w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\"\/><figcaption>Bags of humanitarian supplies are seen outside Port Authority Bus Terminal as migrants arrive in New York City. <\/figcaption><figcaption><span class=\"credit\">YUKI IWAMURA\/AFP via Getty Images<\/span><\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p>It didn\u2019t take much of this first-hand experience of illegal migration to change minds.
