Suddenly discovering fiscal responsibility after sinking the country into a morass of debt, Democrats fret that we must not defend our country from foreign invasion because it would cost too much. The New York Times, primary mouthpiece for the Democratic Party, gets so carried away as to screech that deporting illegal aliens would cost $88 billion per year — even more than we give Ukraine. Meanwhile:

In an analysis from the Crime Prevention Research Center, the costs of crime from the top targets of ICE Enforcement and Removal Operations was set at $166.5 billion. That number is based on the cost to victims, a price list developed by the National Institute of Justice.

The estimate includes only the illegal aliens with the worst criminal records.

John R. Lott Jr., who did the analysis for Real Clear Investigations, said the cost was based on just one of the crimes “each of the 662,566 ‘non-detained’ noncitizen offenders on ICE’s list” has been previously accused of.

That’s just the direct cost of crime. Then add the cost of providing illegal aliens with welfare payments, which they are more likely to collect than US citizens. Then add the incalculable cost of a civilization destroyed if the Democrat scheme to displace the American population with explosively reproducing welfare wards from the Third World is not reversed.
