Month: October 2019

The hate, chaos, ignorance, and emotion being demonstrated by thousands of Americans is an accurate picture showing the results of years of paid for corrupt political leadership.

In the American mural, I see thousands of future Americans having their lives terminated every year.  I see debt so large that the average person cannot relate to it.  I see that our leadership spends billions on a drug war that has resulted in more government and more drugs, trillions on a war against poverty that has resulted in more government and more poverty.  I see a government-run retirement system called Social Security that has given us more government and a Ponzi scheme destined to fail and now an educational system that can’t tell the difference between boys and girls but provides some of the best babysitting and welfare services available in America.  And we have at least one political party providing “presidential” candidates unfit to serve in a public office who promise continued support and expansion of these failures if elected.

In the real world, seats at the corrupt government table are now so expensive that large PACs have been legalized to collect the necessary funding to continue buying those seats.  Those seats provide the power needed to control all aspects of the people’s lives and, as importantly, their money.  People who sit in those seats are in most cases “selected” by the political parties and presented to we the people as “candidates” qualified to represent us at the government table.  We end up voting for the lesser of two evils.

It’s time to realize that the New World Order is not a conspiracy theory.  Governments in Europe, North America, and South America are not responding to their citizens, but engaging in “political coups” designed to overthrow self-government.  Removal of firearms from their citizens is a basic requirement.  The illegal transfer of human beings and similar actions are efforts being coordinated worldwide, and in the long run, they will undermine the governments of the related countries.

As said by Democratic president Franklin D. Roosevelt, “Nothing happens in politics that isn’t planned.”  Continuing to vote for the same politician expecting different results is not a solution; it’s the problem.

In July of this year, the U.S. House overwhelmingly passed H.R. 1044, the Fairness for High-Skilled Immigrants Act.  The bill had broad bipartisan support, with Democrats voting 224-8 in favor of it and Republicans voting for the act by a measure of 140-57.  The legislation represents one of the most horrific acts of aggression against the American worker in decades.  It reveals that American immigration policy is really just a competition among various groups struggling for supremacy, with Congress ceding control of immigration to the most powerful foreign actors: India and China.

Currently, a cap is in place that limits the number of H-1B tech visas so that no more than 7% of the total number of those visas come from any one country.  H.R. 1044 eliminates this cap.  The primary benefactors of this removal are the Indian tech workers who have been brought over to this nation and face a backlog due to this cap as well as the workers in India who seek to come to the U.S.  It is estimated that once this legislation goes into effect, India will receive more than 90% of these visas for the next decade.  The legislation also increases the per-country cap on family-based immigrant visas from 7% to 15%. 

As if this were not enough, the legislation also alters the number of EB-5 investment visas that a nation can purchase — opening the door to mass migration from China.

In 2017, the U.S. issued roughly 180,000 H-1B Visas.  Assuming that each of those visa-holders brought over a wife and two children and 90% of those Visas came from India, this would mean an addition of roughly 6.5 million new Indian residents over the next decade.  This would more than triple the Indian population in the U.S. even before chain migration kicked in.

The average pay for tech workers in the US is $39,000 a year.  The effect this legislation would have on this already low salary as well as to the established culture of the nation will be catastrophic, to say the least.

The list of congressional representatives who support and oppose this legislation shows that politics does indeed make strange bedfellows.  Included among the narrow swath of opponents are the normal cadre who oppose mass migration as well as those who oppose the bill for personal reasons, such as Congresswoman Ilhan Omar from Minnesota and Congresswoman Rashida Tlaib from Michigan.  Omar is an immigrant from Somalia, and Tlaib is the daughter of Palestinian immigrants. 

So why does an immigrant and the daughter of immigrants oppose legislation that would open a massive door to large numbers of immigrants?  The answer to this question is as simple as it is painful.  These representatives want immigration to come from their native lands, and H.R. 1044 reduces or eliminates immigrants from those nations in favor of India and China.  In effect, America is up for grabs, and Congresswoman Omar and Congresswoman Tlaib see this legislation as detrimental to their people’s ability to gain a larger foothold in America.

Ten of the 23 Republican representatives from Texas cosponsored the bill (the state with the highest Republican support).  A total of 16 of those 23 voted for the legislation.  Texas already has an immigration problem, and this legislation would exacerbate this problem for the Republican party.

Ernst and Young and Deloitte LLP are two of the largest recipients of H-1B Visas.  These two companies have donated an average around $10,000 to 16 or 17 Texas Republican congressional representatives in each of the last few election cycles.  The interesting part about this is that many of the representatives who received this money voted against the legislation, and some that received none of it voted in favor of the bill.

Newly elected congressman Dan Crenshaw (District 2) cosponsored the legislation.  He and Congressman Weber (District 14) are two notable exceptions to the list that received money from Deloitte and E&Y.  Congressman Crenshaw’s third highest donor is a firm that specializes in real estate known as Ilan Investments.  The company donated more than $11,000 to Congressman Crenshaw’s campaign and is owned by an Indian-American named Chowdary Yalamanchili.  Congressman Randy Weber (District 14) voted for the legislation and received more than $13,000 over two election cycles from the Azhar Chaudhary Law Firm — which specializes in H-1B visas.

In addition to this, there was a great deal of lobbying around this bill.  The examples of Crenshaw and Weber show that if you sorted through the maze of money around direct donations, PAC money, and lobbyists, you would eventually find something that could be seen as revealing a quid pro quo for every congressman who voted for the legislation.

What was needed in this case was for each congressman to explain why he feels the need to drastically alter immigration policy in this manner.  There was very little debate on this legislation, and this is the single most revealing aspect of it.  For reasons that no one can really nail down, Congress feels the need to alter immigration to heavily favor two nations in support of an employment field that is already overcrowded and should be a staple of the American middle class.  The fact that they seemed to feel no need to consult with the American people or explain this action reveals the true nature of the relationship between Congress and the American people.

In an interview with Breitbart News on Wednesday, Dr. Ali Akram Albayati of the Iraqi High Commission on Human Rights discussed the origins of the protests in Iraq, endorsed the right of the people to be heard, and mourned the loss of life during clashes between protesters and security forces.

Dr. Ali described the protests as an “explosion of public anger due to unemployment and lack of basic services” mixed with the negative reaction to several specific incidents, including the ouster of popular counter-terrorism commander Gen. Abdul-Wahab al-Saadi, the aggressive security response to academic demonstrations in September, and the “harsh dealing of local governments with the issue of slums in Iraq.”

Ali said Gen. Saadi “has a good and special reputation in the hearts of Iraqis,” so their growing disillusionment with the central government erupted when they saw him being treated shabbily after doing so much to combat terrorism in Iraq.

“It was an explosion of an accumulated pressure over the last 16 years, due to lack of the main basic services, corruption, and absence of employment opportunities,” he said.

“In general, over the short age of the new political system in Iraq, there was no attention from the political groups to build trust between them and the community which, of course, needs provision of at least the basic infrastructures and services,” he elaborated.

At the same time, Ali said Iraqis could see very well “how the political figures and their families were getting more wealthy and living in the world’s most beautiful capitals.”

Ali poignantly described the frustration of Iraqis watching their political elite enjoy the rewards of the oil industry while the people “only drink its dangerous waste products in the water, like in Basra.” The city of Basra has been suffering from an acute water quality crisis that has hospitalized over 100,000 people.

These popular frustrations were made even worse by the widespread perception of Iraq’s hard-won democracy failing, or at least performing little differently from the old tyranny, as far as the common man was concerned. 

Ali spoke of a terrible sense of disappointment pervading the country as the new system was seen as “only empowering and financing some families on a sectarian or ethnic basis” and making them “powerful enough to guide all institutions in Iraq according to their will or interest, not the public’s interests.”

Responding to comments by Iraqi Prime Minister Adel Abdul-Mahdi that corruption in Iraq is an intractable problem because those corrupt interests are too powerful to defeat, Ali advised revising the national constitution and moving from a parliamentary system to a presidential model like the one employed by the United States. He said reforms would be more easily implemented through one top official “coming through direct election from all Iraqis for four years and to be monitored by the parliament.”

Ali decried the dozens killed and thousands injured during the past week of protests, finding them sadly unsurprising given the large number of weapons in Iraq and the number of outside forces prone to interfering in Iraqi politics. He pointed out that at least eight deaths and 1,200 injuries among security forces must be added to the total casualties. He said investigations into the use of force against protesters, including the use of snipers by the police, are underway.

Ali said it was important to remember that most of the security units established in Iraq after 2003 were tasked with fighting terrorism and experienced at dealing with “the most brutal groups of terrorists,” not practicing humane crowd control with strict rules of engagement when huge numbers of citizens took to the streets.

Iraq, like most other countries, is also dealing with generational transitions and the effect of the Internet on public discourse. Ali noted that “the youth now represent 60 percent of the Iraqi population and, of course, they are in daily and direct contact with all the world through social media and open communications.”

Asked if the Iraqi demonstrators are aware of, and influenced by, other high-profile protest movements like the one in Hong Kong, he observed that “any movement in any part of the world now has an influence on any community in any other part of the world, including the Iraqi people.” 

He noted ruefully that Iraq’s volatile younger generation combines a higher level of online connectivity with extremely high unemployment rates and a growing drug abuse problem.

Wednesday brought some hopeful signs of calm, perhaps aided by Prime Minister Abdul-Mahdi declaring three days of mourning for those killed in the protests. Ali worried that permanent solutions to the problems that motivated the protests could remain elusive.

“It is a complex equation to balance between the right to expression and demonstration by an angry people due to accumulated problems and sufferings, and keeping the government or the situation stable,” he reflected, observing that Iraqis are well aware of how unstable the region is and they know their country, located at the crossroads of every conflict, will always find itself “in the heart of fire.”

Russia’s state communications regulator announced on Tuesday that China and Russia will sign an agreement to cooperate in further censoring internet access for their citizens.

The regulator, “Roskomnadzor,” said it would formally sign the international treaty with their Chinese counterpart, the “Cyberspace Administration of China,” on October 20. That date is the first day of China’s three-day “World Internet Conference,” to be held this year in the city of Wuzhen, in eastern Zhejiang province.

China has approximately three times the number of online citizens as the United States, according to a South China Morning Post report, but their experience of the global network is vastly different behind what Wired magazine first called “The Great Firewall of China” in 1997. CNN calls the communist dictatorship’s ongoing efforts to block unwanted information “the world’s most sophisticated top-down censorship apparatus.”

Russia has been taking notes. Russian President Vladimir Putin’s administration has been using a similar strategy for years and continues to aggressively pursue complete control over his people’s access to information not approved by the Kremlin.

In March, Putin signed two bills into law that level fines against anyone who publishes what the government deems “fake news,” or shows “clear disrespect for society, the state, the official state symbols of the Russian Federation, the Constitution of the Russian Federation, and bodies exercising state power.”

Now the two superpowers are officially joining forces to reinforce their control. This is just the latest example of what Kremlin spokesman Dmitry Peskov characterized as a “special relationship” between the nations sharing a 4,300KM border.

Socialism, including greenie socialism, is always about blaming Those Greedy Capitalists for whatever hideous policies the government cooks up, which inevitably prompts an unintended consequence.

California’s Gov. Gavin Newsom is right there with the best of them, blaming the wreckers and hoarders for California’s massive power outages, taking northern California back to a state of nature, and in the full greenie spirit, telling us it’s needed, necessary, all for our own good.

Get a load of it, from the Sacramento Bee, emphasis mine:

California Gov. Gavin Newsom said Wednesday he’s “outraged” over Pacific Gas and Electric Co shut-offs, blaming decades of mismanagement at the utility.

He made the comments Wednesday morning, several hours after millions of Californians woke up without power amid massive blackouts that have stranded huge swaths of the state without electricity.

Given the potential danger posed by the utility’s power lines, Newsom said the blackouts are needed to keep people safe as powerful winds sweep through the state.

There’s more detail here, from CBS’s San Francisco affiliated, KPIX5:

But Newsom, who spoke to reporters after he signed a rent cap measure at the West Oakland Senior Center, said the power shutoff “was anticipated many months ago and this is the (utility) industry’s best practice.”

Newsom said, “The determination of whether or not to do this is based on a number of factors,” including intense winds, low humidity and the areas that are near to windy areas. 

He said that determination is up to PG&E based on “their determination of what’s in the best interest of their customers in partnership and consultation with the Office of Emergency Services, CalFire and experts in this field.”

Newsom said, “This is all about public safety and saving lives.  This is part of something we all knew was likely and would occur many months ago when PG&E finally woke up to their responsibility to keep people safe.”

However, the governor said the power shutoff “is not how things should work in the (utility) industry.”

He said, “None of us are happy about this.”

Ah, the best interests…and PG&E, not his policies, is the one that did it. 

Actually, it’s PG&E’s best interests, given the leftist lawsuit lunacy that prevails in California, sufficient to drive PG&E into bankruptcy last January, now that any wildfire is the basis for a lawsuit against it. In the past, homeowners used to deal with wildfire damage through fire insurance, but with costs being what they are, some can’t afford and others conclude they can skip it: who needs fire insurance when lawsuit payouts are even better? The electrical monopoly ought to be immune from such lawsuits, given its role in supplying power to the population, but it’s not – it’s now vulnerable to big lawsuits all over the place any time there’s a fire. Can the law be fixed? Not a chance of that under Newsom California’s one-party blue regime – blaming the utility is much easier.

So, too bad about the hospitals and the cell phones and the refrigerators now that the electrical supplier is focused on legal liability based on weather conditions and Newsom assures us it’s needed.

Instead of telling Californians it’s for their own good, Newsom should be blasting this legal situation and moving to change the law.

That’s not the only Castroite Cuban master in the woodwork that Newsom’s taking orders from as it commands the state’s Venezuela-like power failure here, either.

The real root of the problem, prompting the PG&E reaction is the state’s greenie laws, which, as AT contributor Tom Trinko notes, prevents the clearing of brush to prevent power equipment from catching fire and spreading wildfires. (This one, by J.R. Dunn, is good, too.)  Apparently, no greenie law can be criticized in Newsom’s purview, any more than Nicolas Maduro’s laws against wreckers and hoarders can be blamed for Venezuela’s currency collapse or structural shortages.

Newsom just claims that PG&E has “finally woke up to their responsibility”on wildfire blame (of course they did – they’re liable for billions for past wildfires and bankrupt to boot) so nothing needs to be changed on the greenie laws. Hence, the ‘need’ to shut off power and return the state to greenie nature.

Quite a blame game he’s got going on as he makes nominal claims about not liking it and being concerned about his rich man’s plaything winery harvest even as refrigerators go bad with spoiled food, looting and car crashes commence, and hospitals go dark.

It’s green regulations behind this, and those also include the lunatic ones from the Jerry Brown era, which Newsom supports, demanding crazy greenie fuel mandates from solar and wind sources, which require – are you ready — more power lines to transmit it. The cost of that less-efficient and unreliable boutique fuel is like the cost of Hugo Chavez’s socialist handouts – the investment capital needed by P&GE and all the state’s electrical companies to maintain upkeep and the best equipment in wildfire zones, is going instead to expensive and unsustainable greenie projects.

It’s the same pattern as Venezuela, except that instead of Cubans commanding things from the inside and Chavista social spending spending all the seed corn, it’s greenie mandates, which drive capitalists to protect themselves from ruinous lawsuits and drain their investment capital dry. That’s Newsom’s real Cuban master. And like Nicolas Maduro, Newsom, in that same socialist tradition blames people downwind of the policies, everyone but himself, as he tries to explain it out for the cameras.

Here’s another one: Notice his Facebook page: He’s got all kinds of stuff up there about all his supposed great achievements and it’s updated every few hours. Anything to say about the man-caused disaster of California’s blackouts? He’s mysteriously silent. 

Blackouts look exactly the same in Caracas or California, and what’s most obvious here, as Newsom tells us we need these blackouts is that socialism is at the root of all of it. He’s getting more and more like Venezuela’s Nicolas Maduro by the day.

Authorities discovered additional remains of aborted babies in the trunk of a car belonging to deceased abortionist Ulrich Klopfer.

Indiana Attorney General Curtis Hill said his office is investigating the remains that were found in the trunk of a car, while still working on the investigation of the 2,246 aborted remains found by family members of Klopfer at his home in Illinois after he died.

According to WSBT22, Klopfer’s family found the additional remains on Wednesday morning while searching through several of the abortionist’s cars that were stored at a business property in Dolton, Illinois.

#NEW: AG Hill says additional remains were found this morning by Will County Sheriff’s office. The remains were found in a trunk at a business property in Dolton, Illinois. Investigators found five plastic bags and one box containing the fetal remains.

“Based on that, the family members contacted authorities in Cook County,” said Hill. “Cook County contacted Will County authorities primarily because Will County had experience, vast experience in establishing protocols from the last discovery.”

Arriving on the scene, investigators discovered five plastic bags and one box containing the remains of the aborted babies, stored in the trunk of an older Mercedes Benz.

Klopfer performed abortions in South Bend, Gary and Fort Wayne, Indiana.

In 2015, his medical license was suspended after he allegedly failed to report an abortion performed on a 13-year-old girl.

“It’s a shock for everyone,” Hill said, adding his office is attempting to help Klopfer’s former patients to determine if any of the remains discovered belong to them.

“Our objective, ultimately, is to resolve this with respect and dignity for the remains and it would anticipate that we would add any additional new remains to the mix,” said Hill, according to the report.

The priority, he continued, is giving the remains a “proper burial” and ensuring something like this doesn’t happen again.

“We don’t want to see fetal remains discarded like so much trash by the side of the road,” said Hill. “Imagine, if you will, if we discovered 2,246 remains of adults who were deceased in some type of preservation fluid. Everyone would be freaking out.”

In a comment sent to Breitbart News, Susan B. Anthony List’s State Policy Director Sue Swayze Liebel, an Indiana native, said the additional discovery is “a stark reminder that the abortion industry profits from the destruction of unborn children and exploitation of vulnerable women on a similar scale every day.”

“We grieve for the little ones denied their very humanity and with the mothers forced to relive the trauma endured at Klopfer’s hands, wondering if their child is among his collection of bodies,” she added. “All of Klopfer’s victims deserved so much better.”

Vice President Mike Pence, former Indiana governor, has called for a full investigation into the remains found at Klopfer’s home. Several weeks ago, a group of Republican senators introduced legislation that would ensure dignified burials for aborted babies.
