Back in the ’70s, school kids were taught to chant “It’s Only a Clump of Cells” to depersonalize a growing human child in the womb. The ‘70s kids came to believe that lie, and then use that slogan to justify aborting their own children as they became adults, parents, politicians, and voters. And then the lie was repeated for two generations.
Today the hot slogan is “No Human Being is Illegal!”
It is a popular virtue-signaling slogan, now being used to justify uncontrolled illegal immigration. If Biden tries to federalize and then control a sovereign state’s National Guard, he will need to enshrine that false slogan as truth to justify twisting Title 10, Section 333.
This law allows the president to federalize a state’s National Guard when “any part or class of its people” are “deprived of a right, privilege, immunity, or protection named in the Constitution and secured by law” when “the constituted authorities of that State are unable, fail, or refuse to protect that right, privilege, or immunity, or to give that protection.”
In this case, Biden would argue that illegal aliens, even though guilty of criminal acts, are a “class of its people,” which is to say they are American and Texas citizens and, further, that illegally crossing the border is a right “named in the Constitution and secured by law.”
This is how lies become the foundation of law. People first must believe the lies. Then weaponized courts codify the lies as truth. And then culture becomes death-culture.
“The decline of community in the modern world has as its inevitable religious consequence the creation of masses of helpless, bewildered individuals who are unable to find solace in Christianity regarded merely as creed.”

American diplomacy should continue to stand up for genuine democracy, freedom of expression, and unapologetic celebrations of European nations’ individual character and history. America encourages its political allies in Europe to promote this revival of spirit, and the growing influence of patriotic European parties indeed gives cause for great optimism. Our goal should be to help Europe correct its current trajectory.
