California Gov. Gavin Newsom is going all in on opposing President Trump – and the majority of the American people – on the problem of illegal migration as the caravans from Central America fire up. Now he’s heading off to El Salvador to “examine the root causes of migration,” as Big Daddy holding out the bag of goodies to would-be illegal immigrants in their home countries. To him, they’re his constituents. So he’s got to find some justification for this trip and you can bet he will. My bet’s on him using the trip as a soapbox to make claims about global warming causing it.

He’s started with this package of goodies for illegals described on his gubernatorial website:

 In his first weeks in office, Governor Newsom signed AB 72, legislation to fast-track state aid to asylum seekers who are being abandoned at bus stations and on the side of the road by the federal government. It was the first bill he signed into law. AB 72 established a Rapid Response Relief Fund of $5 million in immigration assistance, which helped support the opening of a migrant support shelter in San Diego.

Have pork, will travel.

But his claimed mission is worth looking at, too – to examine the “root causes of illegal migration” not to stop it, but as his pork demonstrates, to encourage more of it.

Latest “narrative” coming from the left is that global warming causes illegal migration. You can bet he will use it.

RealClearPolitics ran a long, very long, article from the New Yorker about how global warming is the real reason illegal migrants are heading in their caravans, not to the next convenient country, but to the United States, that country more than 1,000 miles away that is largely English-speaking and has a modern economy, with modern conventions such as flush toilets and washing machines. The link to “How Climate Change is Fuelling the U.S. Border Crisis” is here.

Global warming.

Which, though the idea is a rapidly discrediting superstitition from the left, is a wonderfully convenient excuse for justifying illegal migration. See, global warming is caused by gringos, so gringos did it. Get ready for the illegal migrants with their hands out as a result.

The New Yorker piece is very very long, (and pretty interesting as a descriptive piece), so I won’t quote it, but suffice to say, the author of it failed to make her point. I will sum up what its writer found so as to make her argument that global warming causes illegal immigration:

Guatemala’s western highlands are in a drought. That drought is creating food shortages. (Left unsaid: Guatemala’s government is apparently doing nothing about it, despite it being its own people). The Guatemalans are clueless about how to adapt to any drought-like conditions. That means they need U.S. NGO aid workers to teach them about crop rotation, saving seeds in their own seed banks, and minimizing the need for water through shade planting. Guatemalans can’t figure that out on their own. Aid from American NGO workers is the only thing that can keep people fed. And not just any aid, only American aid (Guatemala is apparently excused from the need to provide aid, despite the record remittances in hard currency it receives). Mean President Trump is cutting off aid. Yet he’s the one who caused this whole debacle because he doesn’t buy into the idea of global warming.

The writer keeps trying to circle around and claim that global warming is the cause of the Guatemalan drought, as if the region had never seen one earlier, but it’s a tenuous and unpersuasive argument, never proved. The writer can describe problems, but can’t analyse or consider multiple scenarios, and she wrecks her piece by trying to shoehorn it all into a “narrative’ about global warming with insufficient evidence.

Rest assured, she didn’t wreck her piece from the perspective of the agenda she was promoting. That influential ”narrative” is going to get into the Democratic party line as justification for cartel-led and gang-led illegal immigration, which of course strengthens cartels and gangs at U.S. taxpayer expense. Global warming means it’s all O.K.., and never mind that detail about Guatemala’s failure to take care of its own people during what in reality is a temporary weather condition for farmers whose capacity to adapt is basically by fleeing north.

Rest assured, Newsom will be up on this by the time he gets out of El Salvador. He’s got to claim he did something other than shovel pork. He’s going there to blame Trump for everything, and global warming is a big low hanging fruit for him.

So what’s all this cuchi–coo between President Obama and German Chancellor Angela Merkel?

The former U.S. president was reportedly meeting with the woman he’s described in the past as his favorite European politician this very week. There was a smattering of reportage, and insistence from officials that this was all on the up and up. Here’s the Fox News report:

BERLIN – Chancellor Angela Merkel has received former U.S. President Barack Obama at her office in Berlin for a meeting characterized by German officials as a routine private encounter with a former international peer.

Obama could be seen waving as he left the chancellery alongside Merkel Friday. Merkel’s spokesman, Steffen Seibert, said she has met repeatedly with ex-heads of state and government “with whom she worked together closely and well for a time.”

Kind of sounds like they were having a conversation about their (non-existent) grandchildren on the tarmac, eh?

DC Whispers, for one, thinks that the two Trump-hating politicians might have a less savory agenda, writing:

The king of open borders USA met privately with the queen of mass migration Europe this week in what some are justifiably calling an example of shadow government in action. Please read closely the cause and effect details outlined below:

It should also be noted that the meeting between the former president and the outgoing German chancellor took place within 24 hours of this report via D.C. Whispers:

——————-

The Full Story of How Obama, Hillary and Brennan Carried Out The Crime of the Century…

——————

An entire segment of that report was devoted to the relationship between Obama and Merkel and included the following:

…Obama had been called out by the Drudge Report for visiting foreign leaders in Europe in the spring of 2017 right before President Trump visited those leaders in Europe. It turns out that one of those Obama meetings is now under scrutiny on Capitol Hill.

Deputy attorney general Rod Rosenstein gave a redacted document to Rep. Devin Nunes, showing two major redactions about the creation of the Trump “Dossier” and the launch of FISA warrants and Robert Mueller’s investigation during the 2016 campaign. The redactions were: “the name of a country and the name of a foreign agent who supplied information.”

Now we know: the country is Germany and the foreign agent was either Angela Merkel or someone who worked for Angela Merkel in foreign intelligence.

The redacted sections will be referencing one of the European countries and agents that share SIGINT (signal intelligence) to US Intelligence,” says Chuck Marler, a longtime agent of the FBI Special Surveillance Group under Robert Mueller, who is an official whistleblower in this case.

The glorification of sexual depravity that has been crammed down the throats of decent, moral Americans but the rabid left and the entertainment industry continues and there is no end in sight.

Another grotesque exhibit of the morally bereft dogma of liberalism will take place later this month in the all-American city of Cleveland which will for one weekend become a veritable Mecca for perverts, freaks, sickos, fetishists and mentally twisted sex fiends who dabble in BDSM and leather.

That would be the CLAW convention, an acronym for Cleveland Annual Leather Weekend when the crazies are unleashed and any self-respecting parent should make sure their children are kept off the streets.

Major U.S. hotels book depravity convention for pervy sickos

Convention at major U.S. hotels showcases extreme sexual depravity

If you had plans to take your kids to downtown Cleveland over the weekend of April 25-28, don’t – unless you want them to receive a quick and nightmarish tutorial about where the “LGBTQ” agenda really takes America: into a filthy sewer.

That weekend, major Cleveland hotels will host CLAW, the Cleveland Annual Leather Weekend

It’s a large orgy of homosexual males focused on “sado-masochism” and “bondage.” Think ropes, chains, erotic asphyxiation, suspension by hooks, cutting, etc. Or maybe don’t think about them, since these are usually considered reckless, stupid activities involving major risks of injury and disease, committed by severely emotionally disturbed people.

Unless of course you identify as “LGBTQ.” Then you get respect and can demand whatever you want in “public accommodations” even if it’s crazy, disgusting or a public health nightmare.

Which is why there’s a petition to Cleveland officials to stop this outrage.

If you have an interest in the Westin that weekend, it’s apparently “full.” Think about that: Packed with deviant males who will be doing who knows what in their rooms.

Sorry to offend, but it’s important to understand what is going on here: the public sharing of bodily fluids of promiscuous people who also regularly engage in anatomically invasive sex practices. So in the meeting rooms of the Westin, Hampton Inn, Cleveland Marriott, etc., there will be activities and “workshops” (a.k.a., orgies) involving blood, feces, urine, semen and – when people realize what they are doing – possibly vomit.

Several days later, you might be attending a corporate luncheon in the same room – and the Cleveland Department of Health is apparently okay with this.
