“We imperatively need a stricter enforcement of our general immigration law, and a permanent percentage limitation...

We want the American race to continue to be [predominately of] the same stock which originally settled the United States, wrote our constitution, and established our democratic institutions...

We want our immigration to be chiefly made up of kindred peoples from northern and western Europe, easily assimilable, literate, of high grade intelligence, able to understand, appreciate and intelligently support our form of government... America for Americans”

Just as no man is called upon to endanger his own life or to sacrifice his own family for the sake of strangers, so no nation is required to open its doors to all comers without regard to the consequences.

—Henry Cabot Lodge, Speech in the U.S. Senate, March 16, 1896

The unrestricted admission of immigrants is a menace to our institutions, just as the unrestricted admission of strangers would be a menace to the security of the family home.

—Samuel Gompers, Testimony before the House Committee on Immigration and Naturalization, February 1924

Among the number of applications… cannot we find an American capable and worthy of the trust? … Why should we take the bread out of the mouths of our own children and give it to strangers?

John Adams’ Letter to Secretary of State John Marshall, August 14, 1800

What is the good of practising prudence in the family if hungry strangers may crowd in and occupy at the banquet table of life the places reserved for its children?

Changing America, Edward Alsworth Ross, 1912

There is systemic legal and physical infrastructure being developed for Mass Deportation
As of Thursday afternoon, April 17, there were 456 active 287(g) agreements, or partnerships between ICE and local agencies — more than three times as many as there were in December 2024, according to data on ICE's website.

Exhibit A of the deportation machine being developed. Trump already has an arrest rate 600% higher than Biden, bound to spike more as this law enforcement cooperation continues to grow across U.S. counties.

Detention centres expand 'From Guantánamo to Delaney Hall'; prisons opening up in several states to support removal capacity. This did not happen immediately, for obvious legal and logistic reasons.

Key takeaway is that whatever we achieve must be secured on reliable demographic grounds, otherwise the success was for naught.
