During the Democratic National Convention in Chicago last week, Numbers USA interviewed local residents about how the Democrat party prioritizes illegals over citizens.
Andre Barnes with Numbers USA spoke with people who have been impacted by the immigrants being bused into their neighborhoods, and the results are devasting for Democrats.
Barnes asks one resident, “Can you tell me about your neighborhood and what you’ve seen living here in Chicago?”
She replies, “It’s just been a disaster. They started off putting the immigrants over in the police station. And as they started to move them out of the police station, they stealthily started to put them in our neighborhood.”
“Well, the neighbors, the neighborhood didn’t want them. The residents, the citizens, we pushed back, but the deal was already done.”
“And so they were bringing in a lot of military-age men into the community. I mean, we’re not blind, we’re not stupid, we’re not obtuse. We know what’s going on.”
She continued, “But unfortunately, the people who run this city, they don’t care what the people think. So they started putting them into quiet residential neighborhoods like Washington Park, middle-class, Black neighborhoods. We’re still pushing back. We don’t want them here. The crime rate has gone up since they have been here. That’s a fact. Nobody wants to talk about it, but we live it every day.”
Barnes asked, “Does the Democratic platform seem to satisfy your needs as far as what you’d like to see with our immigration policy?”
She replied, “What platform is that? They don’t seem to have a platform. They seem to have open borders.”
“Everybody can come here. Listen, people live in their homes. You have a home, or you have an apartment. Do you have a front door on your home?” she asks.
Barnes replies, “Yes, I do.”
She continues, “Do you have a back door?”
“Yes, I do,” he replies.
“Are you locked?”
“They’re locked.”
Are you locking because you’re racist?
“No.”
“You’re locking because…..”
“I’m protecting my four children that I have at home,” he states.
“Exactly. Same thing with our borders, okay? It has nothing to do with racism. We have to protect our sovereignty. We have to protect the citizens here. We have to protect our homeland. And so we have to close those borders. By any means necessary.”
“Building a wall is an excellent idea. Look at the DNC Convention. They built all kinds of walls of security. They have all kinds of police. They wanted to defund the police. They didn’t want police protection. But listen, when it comes to them, it’s always a hypocrisy built into it.”
A different Numbers USA reporter asks another resident, “When you think about what’s going on in the United States of America right now and in Chicago with mass immigration, what are three words that come to mind for you?”
The resident replies, “Very, very angry.”
“I’m going to put this at the feet of the Democratic Party, the Biden administration, because we’ve never seen a surge in immigration like we have seen under this administration.”
“It’s all by design. It’s deliberate. The Democratic Party realizes that the black vote is dwindling because the Democratic Party has not delivered for the Black community in the way that the black community has delivered for the Democratic Party in terms of votes. And they realize that.”
“So what do they do? They go around the world and they open up these borders and they let people come from around the world, poor, vulnerable people from around the world come into this country, and it was very strategic. You let them go into cities like New York. You let them come into cities like Chicago. You let them come into cities where there’s a large black population.”
“Now, they’re all over the city of Chicago, but the majority of them now in Chicago are on the west and the south side of Chicago, poor neighborhoods, neighborhoods that are struggling, that have been struggling for a long, long time. So you bring these people into Hyde Park, you bring these people into South Shore, they put them in a hotel, literally right across the street from me, they’re paying no rent. Their food is being provided for. They don’t even make their beds. They have a maid to go and make their beds every day. How do I know? Because I live on 25th floor, and I can look right down on that hotel every day, every night, and I see what’s going on.”
