‘E Pluribus Unum’ Means That We’re One People, Not A ‘Nation Of Immigrants’:
The U.S. is not for everyone. To keep the founding fathers’ vision alive, it must be exclusive. We are not open to all comers.
Despite our march toward electronic money, an important message is still jingling in pockets across America, “E pluribus unum.” The Latin phrase stamped on coins and bills means “Out of many, one.” It was coined in 1776 for the original design of the Great Seal of the United States. The Founding Fathers wanted to underscore the 13 colonies that came together as a single nation. Since then, it has come to include many different people forming one nation.
It is a concept so important that in the Coinage Act of 1873, Congress required “E pluribus unum” be inscribed on every coin, along with “In God We Trust.” We should take these mottos seriously.
“For where your treasure is, there your heart will be also,” the Bible reads in Matthew 6:21. Placing the motto on our money elevates its importance and serves as a reminder, in an era where many have forgotten, what it means to be one.
E pluribus unum is a memorial to the collective struggle of the original 13 colonies and the acknowledgement that they shared a culture, traditions, and a similar concern that their rights were being threatened by a tyrannical British Crown. Those similarities brought them together as a new nation and kept them together.
The founders still mourned the bloody cost of the American Revolution — an unwanted task they were forced to endure, to establish freedom and hope for prosperity defined on their own terms.
What was true then is still true today: The culture and values behind the Constitution define who we are and preserve our freedom. The U.S. is not for people who don’t respect that.
“Out of many, one,” is not the same as “Everyone becomes one.” We are not open to all comers.
Today, many have come to the U.S. for the wrong reasons. They expect the U.S. “As seen on T.V.” and assume everyone is living on Easy Street. The word around the globe during the Biden Era was free food, housing, and healthcare can be had if you can get across the border. And another unwritten message: Your criminal enterprise will flourish in our sanctuary cities. --->READ MORE HERE
It’s Your Civic Duty To Reject The ‘Nation Of Immigrants’ Propaganda You Learned In School
It’s Americans’ ‘duty to prevent any new citizens from coming in until the health of the Republic can be restored and those new citizens can be properly assimilated,’ Glenn Ellmers told The Federalist.
America is not a “nation of immigrants,” and never has been, but there has been a generations-long effort to make Americans feel a false sense of camaraderie with culturally unrecognizable people from all over the globe.
Every generation for the past century-plus has been told the same thing: The United States exists to save the entire world’s less well-to-do by bringing them here and allowing them to experience the American Dream.
It was an argument made by politicians and members of the media, to be sure, but government schools made sure to “mold young minds” into believing the nonsense as well.
It was actually an easy argument to make, so long as there was not a deep dive into the historical evidence. The Germans, Irish, and Italians had all, more or less, assimilated quickly into American culture. It seemed there really was something in the water, and anyone who could take a sip might become as American as anyone whose family helped found the country.
There is something in the water, to be sure, but it is not a secret sauce — it does not work like that. It only exists because generations of Christian Americans from Anglo-European descent built it, maintained it, and created a highly successful, high-trust society meant to be handed down to their kinfolk.
To the extent that it was to be shared with foreigners, the recipients of such a privilege would have to prove themselves worthy of it, and not just at the outset to gain entry, but in perpetuity as a way to continually prove their worth to the people who allowed them to be there.
“Allowing people to become new citizens is a two way agreement, and the part that everyone leaves out is the existing members of the social compact have a right to decide who they want to admit as citizens,” Glenn Ellmers, Salvatori Research Fellow in the American Founding at the Claremont Institute, told The Federalist. “They can exclude anyone they want for any reason, and that sounds kind of harsh and arbitrary, but that’s social compact, because admitting new citizens is only done on the basis of, ‘Will they add to the common good in the country?’ … becoming an American citizen is not a right.”
Why do so many now not understand that? Why is the United States the repository for all the world’s least successful, often violent, often untrustworthy individuals? --->READ MORE HERE
