Burgess Owens: Biden’s immigration policies will ‘defeat the dream of Americans to live the American dream’
Rep. Burgess Owens (R-Utah) joined ‘Tucker Carlson Tonight’ Tuesday to discuss the impact of open borders, telling host Tucker Carlson that Biden’s immigration policies will “defeat the dream of Americans to live the American dream.”
“The leftists have never been our friends,” Owens said. “They are the ones that are anti-choice, they want open borders that they know is going to end up hurting those that are trying to get their first ladder up to the middle class.”
“They’re against any policy that helps us to become independent,” he continued.
“We need to pull ourselves together, start communicating and realize the polices Biden has put together right now is all about defeating the dream of Americans to live the American dream and get to the middle class.”
President Joe Biden plans to unveil the U.S. Citizenship Act of 2021 this week, which would create an accelerated pathway to citizenship for at least 11 million undocumented immigrants and expand the refugee program.
The proposal includes an eight-year path to citizenship for illegal immigrants — a five-year path to a green card and a three-year path to citizenship after background checks and other steps.
Politicians claim the illegal immigrant population is about 11 million, however, many suggest the number is much higher.
Carlson estimated on his show Tuesday that there were about 22 million people living in the United States illegally.

In a significant development, Hunter Biden, the son of President Joe Biden, was indicted on Thursday on federal gun charges as part of Special Counsel David Weiss’ ongoing investigation. The indictment alleges that Hunter Biden made false statements during the purchase of a firearm, among other charges.
The charges against Hunter Biden include:
• Making a false statement in the purchase of a firearm
• Making a false statement related to information required to be kept by a federal firearms licensed dealer
•Possession of a firearm by a person who is an unlawful user of or addicted to a controlled substance
According to the indictment, the alleged incident occurred on or about October 12, 2018, in the District of Delaware. Hunter Biden is accused of knowingly making a false and fictitious written statement during the acquisition of a Colt Cobra 38SPL Revolver. According to reports from Fox News, the statement, submitted on Form 4473, falsely certified that he was not an unlawful user of, and addicted to, any stimulant, narcotic drug, or controlled substance.
Furthermore, the indictment further states that between October 12, 2018, and October 23, 2018, in the District of Delaware, Hunter Biden knowingly possessed the same firearm despite being an unlawful user of and addicted to controlled substances. This marks the first set of charges brought by Special Counsel David Weiss against Hunter Biden since being granted special counsel status.
The investigation came to public attention when it was reported by Fox News in 2021 that police had responded to an incident in 2018 involving a gun owned by Hunter Biden.
Reports state that, Hallie Biden, the widow of President Biden’s late son, Beau, who was in a relationship with Hunter at the time, discarded the gun. Hunter’s gun was thrown away in a dumpster near a market, located close to a school. It was subsequently revealed that Hunter Biden had purchased a gun earlier that same month.
Hunter Biden’s legal troubles do not end with the gun charges. Earlier in July, an original plea agreement collapsed, which would have seen him plead guilty to two misdemeanor tax counts for willful failure to pay federal income tax, thus avoiding jail time on a felony gun charge. Instead, he pleaded not guilty to two misdemeanor tax charges and one felony gun charge.
Attorney General Merrick Garland appointed David Weiss as special counsel to oversee the Hunter Biden investigation and related matters. The White House has declined to comment on these developments, which continue to draw significant public and media attention.
