Donald Trump delivered his first speech since leaving the White House at CPAC Sunday. The speech showed Trump in classic form as he attacked Joe Biden over immigration...

Illegal immigration and the now-open border were Trump’s primary focus. He also jabbed at the new president for increasing refugee admission and even critiqued legal immigration. Here are the highlights.

On Biden’s amnesty bill:

The Biden people are pushing a bill that would grant mass amnesty for millions of illegal aliens while massively expanding chain migration. That’s where you come in and everybody comes in, your grandmother, your father, your mother, your brother, your cousins, they come in so easily. So crazy, so crazy. It even requires that the U.S. government provide illegal border crossers with taxable funded lawyers, lawyers… The Democrat immigration bill is a globalist coup.

On the border crisis:

By recklessly eliminating our border security measures, controls, all of the things that we put into place, Joe Biden has triggered a massive flood of illegal immigration into our country the likes of which we have never seen before...

On immigration enforcement:

He has effectively ordered a shutdown of ICE, halting virtually all deportations, everyone, murderers, everybody, no more. Let’s not deport people...

On refugees:

[Biden’s] already increased refugee admissions by nearly 10 times. But in effect, it will soon be hundreds of times as millions of people flow up through our soon to be open borders… 

On the evils of open borders:

Biden’s radical immigration policies aren’t just illegal, they’re immoral, they’re heartless and they are a betrayal of our nation’s core values.[Donald Trump CPAC 2021 Speech Transcript, February 28, 2021]

Trump’s Triumph at CPAC - The dream of a return to the pre-Trump party of post-Reagan amiable Democratic lookalike losers will not come true, by Conrad Black, American Greatness, March 1, 2021:

.... In one mighty swinging oratorical stroke of 90 minutes, Trump asserted authority over his party, arraigned the new administration for the complete failure to accomplish anything useful in the first 40 of its vaunted 100 days, and then rolled through the Biden executive orders like a bulldozer. The fiasco at the border enjoyed a full exposure, as it is replete with hypocrisy about the infamous cages, effectively sidelining the Immigration and Customs Enforcement service without abolishing it, and turning the United States into what Trump called a “sanctuary country” for whoever in the world wants to come to it....

Trump set the record straight on vaccines and the pandemic....

The outright asininity of easing sanctions on Iran in advance of discussions over its nuclear military program was evident and irrefutable. The dangers of the new administration’s apparent indifference to Chinese trade and currency manipulation skulduggery was well formulated and must have scored strongly with the huge number of his viewers preoccupied with job security....

It is absolutely vital that the bipartisan political class—backed by the totalitarian, woke media and big attack social media cartel—does not get away with the complete suppression of the grave doubts about the integrity of the 2020 presidential election....

He was also correct to heap blame on the U.S. Supreme Court for its cowardice. As the Constitution consigns to the state legislatures the administration of elections, it is only the courts and ultimately the high court that can police and judge the integrity of electoral disputes between executive and legislative parties. That abdication of the Supreme Court over the motion of the attorney general of Texas supported by 16 other state governments was the court’s worst failure since the infamous Dred Scott decision of 1857, which helped bring on the Civil War.... The concerted, air-tight media effort to stifle any question of the integrity of the 2020 presidential election must not be allowed to succeed....

Sunday’s CPAC meeting made it obvious that Trump still rules the Republican Party....

... the Democrats are now going to have to try to govern with their present ramshackle coalition of antagonistic elements riding off in all directions and without a constant pillory of Trump.
