Due Process or Due Panic?

Nothing says “rule of law” like flooding the country with non-citizens and calling it democracy.

If you want to understand the Democratic Party’s increasingly aggressive resistance to President Trump’s mass deportation efforts, don’t bother with the emotional rhetoric being spewed about the Constitution. Instead, look at a map and a spreadsheet.

The Democratic Party—having presided over a border under Biden that resembled a turnstile at a Beyoncé concert—now wants you to believe they’re the guardians of due process. That’s right: the same party that allowed millions of illegal migrants to stroll across the southern border without so much as a clipboard is suddenly clutching the Constitution and yelping about the Bill of Rights.

Why? Because Donald Trump has the audacity—the audacity—to propose enforcing the law.

Don’t be fooled. This isn’t about human dignity. It’s not about protecting the vulnerable. And it certainly isn’t about the rule of law. No, this is about math, maps, and manipulation—and the Democrats’ desperate attempt to pad the blue states they’re bleeding dry.

Let’s talk numbers.

After the 2020 Census, Texas gained two congressional seats, while Florida and North Carolina each picked up one. All three are “red” states that together saw a surge in population in the millions. Meanwhile, California, New York, and Illinois, each “blue” states, hemorrhaged residents and lost three seats in Congress and the Electoral College vote. This isn’t just a shift in demographics; it’s a shift in power—and the Democratic Party knows it.

Enter the migrant crisis.

When the Biden administration oversaw the largest wave of illegal immigration in U.S. history, blue-state leaders welcomed migrants with open arms—not out of compassion, but out of calculation. Consider this:

• California, New York, and Illinois are all sanctuary states.

• None of the three requires a voter ID at the ballot box.

• Each has seen massive increases in illegal migrant populations between 2020 and 2024. Conservative estimates are that California added about 277,000; New York City alone – at least 223,000; Illinois added between 50-100,000.

Now compare that with Texas and Florida, which gained population and seats, yet are labeled villains for daring to check voter ID and decline sanctuary city status.

It doesn't take a genius to connect the dots. The Left has never been about trying to "solve" the immigration crisis—they’re trying to redistribute it strategically. Apportionment of congressional seats and electoral votes is based on total population, not citizenship. As domestic voters have fled California’s taxes and New York’s cost of living, Democrats have imported illegal migrants to stabilize their populations, cushion census losses, and—eventually—shape electoral outcomes. It’s political gerrymandering through population replacement.

Having treated our southern border as a well-funded welcome center, Democrats are now protesting the idea of deportations. Why? Because of “due process.” Because “we must respect the rule of law.”

Give us a break.

They really mean this: “We need to count them in the next census.” You see, the more people (citizens or not) you have breathing in your state, the more congressional seats and electoral votes you gain. That’s not a loophole—that’s the plan. Let’s call it what it is: vote laundering. It’s not about “welcoming immigrants.” It’s about retaining influence.

Sanctuary states like California and New York—where you don’t need an ID to vote but do need one to buy Sudafed—aren’t shielding the undocumented from ICE; they’re shielding themselves from irrelevance. People are fleeing these states as if a wildfire is approaching (think California), and the only thing preventing their political clout from collapsing is a steady influx of illegal migrants they can count on when it matters.

But don't worry. It's all legal—provided that no one gets deported, no one checks IDs, and everyone agrees to stop asking questions.

Now, Trump comes along and threatens to start the game over, kick out the non-citizens, enforce voter ID, and suddenly the Left wants to slow everything down. Due process! Civil rights! A six-month stay to review their immigration case, plus a taxpayer-funded lawyer and a free hotel room in Manhattan!

This isn’t about justice. It’s about jurisdiction. It’s about who gets power, and who gets to keep it. To admit the system is broken is to admit that they built it—for their own survival.

All of this noise is not about due process. It’s about due panic.
