A website, study.com, which offers support for students and teachers, discusses American values as including liberty, unity, diversity, individualism, equality and self-government.
It explains, “Various cultures have different values, but American values can be very accommodating for all. American values refer to the constitutionally-determined code of conduct. The American values definition implies that America is a place where certain ethical and legal standards have to be met. Governed by the rule of law, there are laws that American citizens and non-American residents alike have to adhere to. American values emphasize individuals being responsible for their identities and destiny through their thoughts, choices, and capabilities.”
However, Alejandro Mayorkas, Joe Biden’s pick to be the secretary of Homeland Security, apparently believes that wide-open borders and unlimited illegal immigration are American values.
And a lack of any law enforcement regarding the nation’s immigration and asylum laws.
And unlimited presidential power to do, well, whatever he wants to protect illegal aliens.
The stunning opinions come from Mayorkas himself.

RNC Research posted the Mayorkas video, explaining he “says building a border wall, increasing the number of Border Patrol agents, limiting asylum, and narrowing Biden’s power to parole illegal immigrants is ‘violence to our fundamental values.'”
The GOP already has proposed legislation to do that. Mayorkas resisted, stating, “I would say two things. One we’ve presented, uhm, uhm, proposals that address the situation that provide real practical solutions and also do not do violence to our fundamental values.
“We are a country of refuge. We do have asylum laws. We do have refugee laws. We, uhm, we abide by our international obligations and are longstanding,” he said.
Study.com said, “American values were developed over numerous years, taking into consideration various cultural beliefs and their historical significance. The purpose of American values is to facilitate the assimilation of myriads of individuals from various parts of the world with different cultures and beliefs into a comprehensive American identity.”
IMPORTANT NOTE TO WND READERS: Shortly after Hamas terrorists fired over 5,000 rockets from Gaza into Israel on Oct. 7 and then proceeded to attack the Jewish state by land, sea and air – torturing, burning, beheading and murdering well over a thousand people, including women, children and infants, and wounding and abducting hundreds more – world reaction was, in its own way, almost equally shocking.
For after the biggest one-day mass slaughter of Jews since the Nazi Holocaust, what followed was an outpouring of celebratory demonstrations, unbridled Jew-hatred, deliriously gleeful support for Hamas and bitter condemnation of the nation of Israel. Not just in the Arab-Muslim world, but throughout the Western world as well, including all across America.
Why? What is behind the explosion of anti-Israel, anti-Jewish, pro-terror sentiment in the United States, where Israel has long been one of America’s closest friends and allies? Why are hordes of young “woke” LGBT demonstrators marching in support of Hamas – when Hamas wouldn’t think twice about binding and blindfolding them and throwing them off the roof of a tall building – as they routinely do in the Muslim world?
It turns out there’s one area of agreement that is so powerful, deep-seated and all-consuming that the vast differences between the deranged left and the murderous jihadists melt away into Kumbaya harmony.
All of this and much more is completely exposed in November’s issue of WND’s critically acclaimed monthly Whistleblower magazine, titled ISRAEL VS. GLOBAL JIHAD: How Jew-hatred, radical Islam and Leftism are pushing us toward World War III. Beyond a deeply insightful dive into why leftists are surging toward radical Islam – which hates and dreams of raping and butchering them – this Whistleblower issue includes fantastic articles by everyone from top Israeli analyst (and former Israel Defense Forces officer) Caroline Glick to Harvest Christian Fellowship’s Pastor Greg Laurie on the current war in Israel and biblical prophecies regarding the End Times … which he says are now upon us.
WHISTLEBLOWER is available in both the popular print edition and a state-of-the-art digital version, either single issues or discounted annual subscriptions.
