WASHINGTON (PNN) - January 28, 2026 - For months the Marxist political Left and a small cadre of centrists (and some libertarians) have been denying reality on immigration and border controls. They claim (as if they are mind readers) that when Donald Trump ran his 2024 election campaign on mass deportations of illegals, voters actually thought he would only deport "violent criminal" illegal invaders who committed crimes after crossing the border without permission.
This was never President Donald J. Trump's policy or promise. It is a carefully crafted propaganda narrative designed to shift the Overton Window - the range of subjects and arguments politically acceptable to the mainstream population at a given time. It is also known as the window of discourse. The key to the concept is that the window changes over time; it can shift or shrink or expand. It exemplifies the slow evolution of societal values and norms - and changes the nature of the debate; the original point being that all illegal invaders are, in fact, criminals by default and should be deported.
The "criminal" policy manipulation is an attempt to override the prevailing reason for majority support of strict immigration controls. It is not only about crime - Amerikans
oppose cultural replacement.
The fight is against multiculturalism and the erasure of Western civilization. Marxist Leftists and their allies want to divert the discussion into a debate over whether or not each particular illegal invader "deserves" to be deported. It does not matter. Maybe they are friendly illegal invaders. Maybe not. Either way, they get the boot.
This is the prevailing position of most Amerikans, as CNN recently discovered in a segment that outlined a series of different polls from a variety of media outlets. All the polls
say the same thing; around 55% to 65% of the U.S. public wants mass deportations of illegal invaders without question and without qualification. If they are not an official citizen then they must go.
The polling results expose a few inconvenient truths for Marxist Democrats and deportation critics. First, the public has not changed its stance on immigration since the elections. The statistics on deportations are very similar to those collected in 2024.
Second, the NGO-engineered chaos in cities like Minneapolis has not changed anything. Public opinion is not moving in favor of Marxist Leftists. In other words, a small minority of
activists are trying to override public policy on immigration and rule the country through insurgency.
Third, Amerikans are not buying into the rhetoric that just because an illegal invader has been in the U.S. illegally for a long time, that means he or she deserves to stay. Just because
an illegal invader obeyed the law after sneaking across the border, that does not mean he or she gets de facto citizenship. The law is the law.
Finally, the overarching motivation of Amerikans who want deportations is not simply to reduce crime. As many surveys and polls have shown in the past, the public is also concerned about the economy, price inflation caused by high demand, and tax dollars being devoured by illegal invaders seeking welfare handouts, not to mention millions of Amerikan jobs going to foreigners who work for 30% less under the table.
Then there is the U.S. census and the fact that mass immigration affects voting districts in favor of Democrat cities and states.
Above all else, there is the agenda to erase Western culture and replace it with multicultural, globalist socialism. The root purpose behind mass immigration from the Third World
is to deconstruct the West. People are waking up to this reality and they are not going to accept it.
