Brandon Says Illegal Alien is a term like Slave

Brandon Johnson loses it when confronted with the term "illegal alien".
From the Gateway Pundit:
Uh, Brandon, the LEGAL term for black people is not slaves. It doesn't take Noah Webster to deduce that fact. And nobody ever calls them that. At most one can say they are the descendants of former slaves - as are most people if you look back in history far enough.
But these people coming into the country are here illegally and they are aliens, so it is an entirely proper description of their status. Just because you don't like it doesn't give you the right to redefine language.
And how is it "racist"? He is assuming all illegal aliens are Hispanic or African. They are not. The term fits for an Irish or English person who violates immigration law. But no, it's always about "racism" with leftists because they can't make a rational argument otherwise and they need to control the language and the narrative.

Brandon Johnson loses it when confronted with the term "illegal alien".
From the Gateway Pundit:
Far-left Chicago Mayor Brandon Johnson erupted in response to a reporter’s use of the term "illegal alien,” equating it to the historical dehumanization of Black Americans during slavery.
The meltdown came when a reporter pressed Johnson on the enormous taxpayer burden of providing shelter, healthcare, and other services to tens of thousands of migrants who have flooded the city since 2022, resources that have strained Chicago’s budget while crime ravages neighborhoods and essential services for legal residents are slashed.
"We don’t have illegal aliens. I don’t know if that’s from some sort of sci-fi message that you wish to add,” Johnson erupted, dismissing the term as fictional.
When the reported calmly noted that "illegal alien” is, in fact, the precise legal terminology enshrined in federal law, Johnson doubled down with a jaw-dropping comparison.
"Well, listen, the legal term for my people were slaves. You want me to use that term, too? Look, let’s just get the language right. We’re talking about undocumented individuals that are human beings. The last thing that I’m going to do is accept the type of racist, nasty language to describe human beings,” he said

Methinks Brandon Johnson is guilty of obfuscation -- a term he's probably not familiar with.

Yawp. He probably thinks obfuscating is scating on frozen obfuse (whatever he thinks that is).
