Carl Higbie’s recent segment on Newsmax didn’t mince words: immigration, as he put it, is a simple issue — stop the cultural erosion and enforce the law. He argued that unchecked illegal immigration isn’t just about numbers; it’s about who we become as a nation if we abandon the rule of law and our cultural identity.
Higbie went further, insisting that many who broke our laws on the way here too often fail to grasp or respect what it means to be an American, and that assimilation and shared values must return to the center of the debate. That’s a point every patriot should accept: citizenship and culture are not neutral talking points to be discarded for political convenience.
This isn’t just cultural rhetoric — it’s an economic and security issue too. Former ICE chief Tom Homan told the same Newsmax audience that illegal labor drives down wages for American workers and that stepped-up worksite enforcement is restoring opportunities for citizens and legal residents. Conservatives have been warning for years that open borders reward lawbreakers and undercut honest Americans who follow the rules.
And the evidence shows enforcement produces results when leaders actually do their jobs. Senator Ted Cruz told Higbie’s program that illegal crossings plunged sharply after a string of enforcement actions, proving that policy and willpower matter more than platitudes and open-borders ideology. If Republicans are serious about helping working families, they should double down on proven enforcement rather than surrendering to amnesty.
Yes, critics will scream about Higbie’s past and try to discredit the messenger — he resigned from a federal post years ago after controversial radio remarks were publicized — but conservative patriots know the difference between personal mistakes and a national crisis that demands clear thinking. While no one should excuse crude language, the media’s obsession with character assassination often serves to distract from the real problem: a porous border and a federal government that too often enables lawbreaking.
Americans who love this country shouldn’t apologize for wanting a nation that endures. Elect leaders who secure the border, enforce the law, and insist newcomers adopt our language, values, and legal norms — that is the only sustainable, compassionate conservatism. If Washington won’t act, voters must, because preserving our culture and protecting American workers is not optional; it is our duty to future generations.
