This is how it begins. Massive invasions overrun small towns. A fortune in welfare spending is used to provide them with everything paid for by the taxes of local residents. And as the taxes go up, Americans are squeezed out. The replacement of American workers by migrant invaders is happening all across the country with devastating results.

Here’s a brief video clip from South Portland, Maine shared by the Maine Wire.

South Portland, like much of the country, in the throes of the Biden-Harris open borders crisis, has a migrant problem. And like most migrant problems, it’s a very expensive migrant problem.

The South Portland City Council approved an order Tuesday that freed up $150,000 in state funds that will be used to help asylum-seeking migrants currently staying at one of the city’s hotels find permanent housing.

Over one hundred asylum seekers have been staying at the Howard Johnson hotel in South Portland on the taxpayers’ dime since the city approved a one-year contract with the hotel on June 27, 2023.

That contract, which turned the hotel into a temporary transitional housing facility for the migrants, included $200,000 in state funds set aside to reimburse the city for ambulance calls, General Assistance spending, or other expenditures.

And just wait until they start going to school. But South Portland taxpayers have lots of money. And if they don’t, well then just get reverse mortgages.

Amid discussion regarding recent property tax hikes at a South Portland City Council meeting last month, Mayor Misha Pride suggested that elderly residents living on a fixed income may want to consider reverse mortgaging their homes to manage the growing tax burden.

And that tax burden is only going to get worse as the invasion continues. And the invaders take over.

During a town hall event Monday evening in Portland, Somali-American Maine State Rep. Deqa Dhalac (D-South Portland) claimed that immigrants’ “lives are at stake” in the 2024 election, as part of a rant against former President Donald Trump and defense of immigrants’ contributions to the country and state.

“Another thing that I want to really touch on is what’s at stake as immigrants in this country today,” Dhalac said. “Our lives are at stake, our lives are at stake.”

“You know, we have a candidate who are on the top of the ticket, who is saying immigrants do eat cats and dogs. That is unheard of,” she continued.

“It’s only a fear mongering tactic, and we should not be feared,” Dhalac said of Trump’s rhetoric. “We should not be scared of anybody.”

Nothing to fear. Just Americans losing their homes so that Somalis can move in.
