Republican Texas Lt. Gov. Dan Patrick unabashedly hyped the white supremacist Great Replacement theory on Thursday night, ominously warning Fox News viewers that Democrats are using immigrants to take over our country without firing a shot.
Appearing on Fox News The Ingraham Angle, Patrick discussed Texas Gov. Greg Abbotts emergency order shutting down six points of entry along the southern border amid a renewed surge in migrants. In the border community of Del Rio, U.S. Border Patrol says there are more than 9,000 migrants crowded into a temporary staging area, with thousands more expected to cross the border soon.
It didnt take long for the lieutenant governor to liken the massive wave of migrants to an invasion of the country and the destruction of the GOP.
Let me tell you something, Laura, and everyone watching: The revolution has begun, Patrick told Fox News host Laura Ingraham. A silent revolution by the Democrat Party and [President] Joe Biden to take over the country.
Calling on every red state to invoke Article IV, Section 4 of the Constitutionwhich guarantees the nation shall protect each state from being invadedPatrick said that an invasion is defined as an unauthorized, uninvited, unwelcome incursion into a territory.

(11,726 posts)Took over land that originally belonged to indigenous people including the Apache, Comanche, Mexica, etc... who were dispossessed by other Europeans (Spaniards) and mixed people's (Mexicans).
Take up "The Great Replacement" with the indigenous people. They were here for at least 10,000 years before people like us came along and stole their land.

(16,088 posts)He forgets the history of his state as I assume hes talking about Mexican immigrants. This country was built with immigrants and theres still plenty of room for all of us. I wonder where his family immigrated from. Guess hes afraid of feeling the sting of discrimination in his own country? When will this ugly attitude die out?
