The Question of Immigration

Dave,

Glad you have located R&T. There are so many insane comments on the web that places like ST and now R&T provide a refuge for those of us who have not completely lost our minds. 

I also saw some of Homan's testimony and am glad he pushed back against the dishonest criminals commonly known as Democrat Congressmen and women.

I read Trump's comments saying those who don't like it here "can go somewhere else" and laughed. My wife, who is from S.E. Asia, thus my suggested solution to the immigration problem, agrees with Trump.

I see a new campaign coming which will be something like the one during the 1960s and 1970s. "America, love it or leave it." As much as they will try, I don't believe the progressives and RINOs will be able to counter Trump effectively on this. Clearly, Omar and her comrades do not love America and anyone who is watching things can see this. Even Lindsey Graham has come out and called Omar, AOC and Co exactly what they are, communists. Finally, some on the right are willing to say what we have been saying for years.

Some years back, I was asked by a friend in Hong Kong if I thought the Obamanation loved America. My reply was very simple and, I believe, definitive. "One does not try to fundamentally change what one loves, and Obama has used those exact words several times. So no, Obama does not love America." In fact, he must hate it if he wants to change it fundamentally.

AOC and those scum are of the same opinion and I am glad they are being called out. 

But they won't go. The disparagement of America is not because of our history of---- fill in the blank. The left is only motivated by power. At some deep down level they know that never in human history have so many had so much of everything and American ideals are spreading across the world. They kno9w that the most prosperous nations are also the freest nations. There is no longer anyplace for the would be elites to exploit and it angers them. They actually do believe they are better than the average man, smarter, stronger and more insightful.

For these so-called elites America is an insult. We don't need them to tell us how to think, when to think, or who to vote for. It gauls their petty minds that America is the most powerful nation and it exists solely because of the common man. The real lunch bucket Joe who works all his life, stays married and raises his children with the same values. 

They want to style themselves as intellectuals but they are the most anti-intellectual of the human species. Unless you conform and accept their way of thinking you are the enemy and they will use any tool they find to destroy your life. DJT threatens them.

He threatens them the same way Ronald Reagan did by expressing the opinions of the people. What the left seems incapable of understanding is that there is nothing they can accuse Trump of doing that is going to destroy his relationship with his base. The only person who can do that is Trump himself. The immigration question will be solved, not as soon as we may desire, but it will happen. Roe V Wade will be overturned and sent to the states for legislation. N Korea may or may not surrender their nukes, but their fangs have been pulled. The same is true of Iran, although the prospects of a regional war are still very high. The person most responsible for our booming economy is DJT who will be re-elected in November 2020. 
for those who desire for prediction 325-350 Electoral votes. 

Mark Steyn has written a very good piece which touches on this question and the rapidity with which "Wokeness" (I first heard that word only a few weeks back) has expanded to go after denizens of the left and is now Leninist in nature.

Is You Woke Yet?



The scribatariat are finally catching up to where we have been for some decades. 

It is true Steyn has been a voice in the wilderness regarding immigration, but I was thinking more of his observation that the left is now Leninist.  We have been saying that the American left is literally communist for many years. There has been no hyperbole in our statements.  Unfortunately, they have been simple statements of fact, which most Americans thought over-the-top. People are finally beginning to wake up. The question at hand....."Is it too late?" 

Pray God you are right.

Well, we can hope the new workers will be Americans.  Or legal immigrants with valid green cards.  We also can hope that the companies that hire so many illegal aliens face legal charges.  They undoubtedly violated Mississippi law, but the Attorney General is a Demagogue so he won't do anything about it.

The link is to a nice article at The Federalist which discusses the true costs of illegal immigrants to the USA.

Real Costs of Illegals

I went into this in some detail in my first 4 or 5 articles for the old ST.

I came across a similar number when I wrote my articles for ST in 2013. I had a lot of info on costs from places like Los Angeles. If anything, I suspect the number is higher. Many school districts do not want anyone to know the actual number of illegal alien children attending classes.

In my days of subbing, I even had Mexican kids telling me they were going to have the Reconquista of the American Southwest by Mexico.

The link is to an article reporting someone going to jail for employing illegal aliens. Finally. 

Jail Time

As is to be expected, the man going to jail is small fry. He employed a couple of illegals. When the president of a large company, which employs dozens or hundreds of illegals goes to jail, I will believe progress is being made.  Other fat-cat law breakers will also take notice.
