Kari Lake is absolutely correct! AZ may protect its own border against an invasion!

AZ Gov. Candidate Kari Lake Promises To Declare An ‘Invasion’ On The Southern Border

"Republican Arizona gubernatorial candidate Kari Lake reiterated her promise to declare the border crisis an “invasion” if elected.

Appearing on CBS’s “Face the Nation” Sunday, Lake said that the influx of illegal aliens crossing the border and the sheer amount of deadly fentanyl being trafficked across warrants such a categorization. As such, Lake said she would use her authority to recruit help from other states to help secure the border."

We have been led to believe that our federal government has been delegated an exclusive power to regulate immigration.

What may come as a surprise to many is, nowhere in the text of our constitution is the word “immigration” to be found! As a matter of fact, a review of historical documentation with regard to immigration confirms the limited power delegated to our federal government by our constitution is to set a uniform rule for “naturalization” of foreign nationals who have already immigrated to one of the United States and wish to become a citizen of the United States.

There is nothing to even remotely suggest from historical documentation that our federal government has been delegated an exclusive power to regulate immigration.

So, just what was the specific intention for our framers and those who ratified our constitution to delegate a power to Congress to establish a “. . . uniform Rule of Naturalization . . . ”[Article 1, Section 8, Clause, 4]? And, exactly what does the power encompass?

According to our very own Supreme Court, “Its sole object was to prevent one State from forcing upon all the others, and upon the general government, persons as citizens whom they were unwilling to admit as such.” PASSENGER CASES, 48 U. S. 283 (1849). And, the Court’s statement is confirmed by the following documentation!

REPRESENTATIVE SHERMAN, who attended the Constitutional Convention which framed our Constitution points to the intentions for which a power over naturalization was granted to Congress. He says: “that Congress should have the power of naturalization, in order toprevent particular States receiving citizens, and forcing them upon others who would not have received them in any other manner. It was therefore meant to guard against an improper mode of naturalization, rather than foreigners should be received upon easier terms than those adopted by the several States.” see CONGRESSIONAL DEBATES, Rule of Naturalization, Feb. 3rd, 1790 PAGE 1148

In addition, REPRESENTATIVE WHITE while debating the Rule of Naturalization notes the narrow limits of what “Naturalization” [the power granted to Congress] means, and he ”doubted whether the constitution authorized Congress to say on what terms aliens or citizens should hold lands in the respective States; the power vested by the Constitution in Congress, respecting the subject now before the House, extend to nothing more than making a uniform rule of naturalization. After a person has once become a citizen, the power of congress ceases to operate upon him; the rights and privileges of citizens in the several States belong to those States; but a citizen of one State is entitled to all the privileges and immunities of the citizens in the several States……all, therefore, that the House have to do on this subject, is to confine themselves to an uniform rule of naturalization and not to a general definition of what constitutes the rights of citizenship in the several States.” see: Rule of Naturalization, Feb. 3rd, 1790, page 1152

And finally, REPRESENTATIVE STONE … concluded that the laws and constitutions of the States, and the constitution of the United States; would trace out the steps by which they should acquire certain degrees of citizenship [page 1156]. Congress may point out a uniform rule of naturalization; but cannot say what shall be the effect of that naturalization, as it respects the particular States. Congress cannot say that foreigners, naturalized, under a general law, shall be entitled to privileges which the States withhold from native citizens. See: Rule of Naturalization, Feb. 3rd, 1790, pages 1156 and 1157

CONCLUSION:

Naturalization involves the process by which a foreign national, who is already in our country, is granted citizenship. Immigration, on the other hand involves a foreign national traveling to and entering the United States . . . two very distinct activities!

Now, with respect to Kari Lake’s promise, if elected, to declare an ‘Invasion’ On Arizona’s Southern Border and protect Arizona’s citizens against the consequences of an ongoing tsunami of unwanted foreign nationals flooding across its border, our Constitution states the following:

“No State shall, without the Consent of Congress, lay any Duty of Tonnage, keep Troops, or Ships of War in time of Peace, enter into any Agreement or Compact with another State, or with a foreign Power, or engage in War, unless actually invaded, or in such imminent Danger as will not admit of delay.”

So, it is not a stretch of the Constitution’s wording or its documented legislative intent, that the current situation in Arizona will not admit of delay, and that its Governor not only has authority to protect against an invasion of unwanted foreign nationals flooding across its borders, but it would also be a dereliction of the Governor’s duty to not take action to stop the invasion in its tracks.

Thank you, Kari Lake, for promising to do what our federal constitution allows in crystal clear language, which includes the Tenth Amendment, and is supported by the documented legislative intent of our Constitution which gives context to its text.

Why is AOC chickening out of a debate with Tina Forte? Is it because AOC cannot defend her dangerous and un-American policies?
