“New Way Forward Act” Threatens American Safety and Destroys Sovereignty

On Thursday, Tucker Carlson talked about crime committed by illegal aliens, starting with the story of a New York man who was murdered by the bloodthirsty MS-13 gang because he planned on testifying against the thugs. The gangsters learned the man’s identity because of the new state law which now releases witness names to the defense attorney, thereby endangering them in some cases.

This is the effect of having Democrats writing legislation — public safety goes down the toilet.

Speaking of public safety and legislation, the headliner topic in Tucker’s opening monologue was the bill in the Congress that would award a raft of rights to illegal aliens, including violent criminals. It’s called the New Way Forward Act, aka HB-5383 and is posted on the Congressional website where you can read it for yourself.

The bill is a horror show of protecting foreign criminals while endangering citizens and is sponsored by 44 House Democrats. If the Mexican drug cartels could write a bill, this would be the one. It makes you wonder about some of the lobbyists in Washington, as well as the Dem lawmakers.

Fox News edited part of the segment into text, starting at around 4:30 in the video above where the bill is described:

Tucker Carlson: Criminals would be protected from deportation under bill AOC and other House Democrats back, Fox News, February 6, 2020

At this moment there is a bill pending in Congress called the New Way Forward Act. It’s received almost no publicity, which is unfortunate as well as revealing.

The legislation is sponsored by 44 House Democrats, including Reps. Ilhan Omar of Minnesota and Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez of New York. At roughly 4,400 words, it’s almost exactly as long as the U.S. Constitution.

Like the Constitution, this legislation is designed to create a whole new country. The bill would entirely remake our immigration system, with the explicit purpose of ensuring that criminals are able to move here, and settle here permanently, with impunity.

You may think we’re exaggerating for effect. We’re not – not even a little.

The New Way Forward act is the most radical single piece of legislation we’ve seen proposed in this country. It makes the Green New Deal look like the status quo.

A document produced by Democrats to promote the bill says: “Convictions … should not lead to deportation.”

Keep in mind, we’re not talking about convictions for double parking. The bill targets felony convictions – serious crimes that send you to prison for years. A press release from Rep. Jesus Garcia, D-Ill., is explicit about this.

Garcia brags that the bill will break the “prison-to-deportation pipeline.” How does the bill do that? Under current U.S. law, legal U.S. immigrants can be deported if they commit an “aggravated felony” or a “crime of moral turpitude” – that is, a vile, depraved act, like molesting a child.

Under the New Way Forward Act, “crimes of moral turpitude” are eliminated entirely as a justification for deportation. And the category of “aggravated felony” gets circumscribed too.

What does that mean? Continue reading this article

Might Somali Scammer Rep. Ilhan Omar Be Deported?


Recently, we concerned citizens learned that the Somalia-born representative of Minnesota’s 5th District in Minneapolis, Ilhan Omar, had attracted the interest of several federal agencies to investigate her for an assortment of offenses, including perjury, immigration fraud, tax fraud, student loan fraud and possibly bigamy.

Most of those crimes all sound like jail time to non-lawyer me, but an actual immigration lawyer recently wrote that it’s more likely she might have her US citizenship removed or be deported.

Of course, the ideal outcome would be for the scheming America hater to do some hard time in the joint, followed by a one-way trip home — win, win. But permanent removal in the near future would be an acceptable consolation prize for patriotic Americans.

The immigration lawyer examines a substantial list of questions about Omar’s background that has “more questions than answers” — and it’s curious that a well known public figure has so many mysteries about her background and identity.

The lawyer warns she could be repatriated if she doesn’t get a good attorney — hope springs eternal!

Why Criminal Prosecution Might Be The Least Of Ilhan Omar’s Legal Concerns, The Federalist, by Matthew Kolken, January 21, 2020

Rep. Ilhan Omar needs competent immigration counsel to ensure that there is no threat of her losing her citizenship, or, worse, deportation.

The Department of Justice has reportedly assigned an FBI special agent to work with Immigration and Customs and Enforcement and the Department of Education Inspector General Charge to investigate Rep. Ilhan Omar (D-Minn.) for alleged criminal violations relating to perjury, immigration fraud, marriage fraud, state and federal tax fraud, federal student loan fraud, and bigamy.

As an immigration lawyer, the very first question that came to mind when I read these reports was what immigration consequences, if any, could attach in the event that any of the above allegations are proven beyond a reasonable doubt in a court of law. My analysis, unfortunately, has resulted in more unanswerable questions than definitive answers.

My analysis started with the fact that it is widely known Omar was born in Somalia, and immigrated to the United States as a Somali refugee. At some point after her admission to the country, she obtained U.S. citizenship. The Associated Press reported on November 5, 2009, that Omar fled Somalia to a refugee camp in Kenya with her family in 1991. She ultimately immigrated to the United States as a refugee in 1995.

If this report is correct, the analysis is fairly straightforward. Generally speaking, U.S. immigration law permits refugees to apply for permanent residence, commonly known as a “green card,” one-year after arrival. Five years after holding a green card, refugees may then apply to become a citizen through a process called naturalization.

Naturalization applicants must show they meet residency requirements, and have good moral character. It was reported that Omar became a citizen in 2000, five years after her arrival, at the age of 17.

This last detail is important, and is where things start to get murky. If Omar became a U.S. citizen at the age of 17, she must have obtained it through automatic acquisition after the naturalization of at least one of her parents. Omar would not have been able to apply for citizenship on her own because individuals are ineligible to apply for naturalization until age 18.

Here is where it gets really complicated. The requirements for automatic acquisition have changed several times throughout the last century. The marital status of Omar’s parents would determine whether she could have acquired citizenship. I have no details about their marital status to be able to determine if these legal requirements were fulfilled.

However, if Omar did not have to apply for naturalization, it could eliminate one possible crime that she could be charged with: knowingly giving false information in furtherance of an application for citizenship. A conviction for this crime would lead to her denaturalization, resulting in the loss of citizenship, and the institution of removal proceedings to deport her.

But the analysis doesn’t stop there. For Omar to have automatically acquired citizenship, she must also have been lawfully admitted to the United States for permanent residence, and there are reports questioning the legality of her admission as a refugee.

David Steinberg has covered the Omar saga for several years and has openly questioned whether she is who she says she is. Steinberg has alleged that Omar assumed her name from an unrelated family that was being granted refugee status. Although I have no way to independently assess the veracity of this report, there is circumstantial evidence that this type of immigration fraud was rampant in the circumstances under which Omar was admitted to the United States.

Specifically, in 2009 the Obama administration assessed the viability of re-employing a Bush-era pilot program that unearthed widespread immigration fraud. It found that as many as 87 percent of applications claiming familial relationship were fraudulent. If the reports are ultimately found true, the immigration consequences would be severe, including loss of citizenship and the institution of removal proceedings. Moreover, there may be no defenses to removal in an immigration court setting to stop her deportation. (Continues)

Muslim Representative Ilhan Omar Faces Federal Criminal Investigation

Ilhan Omar, a current member of the US Congress, has been a disturbing example of what happens when a hostile muslim acquires a degree of power in this country. She was generously brought here as a Somali refugee from Africa, yet Omar does everything possible to insult the nation that rescued her and her family.

She clearly hates America, shown by her comments in the magazine Vogue Arabia that living here is an “everyday assault” to her diverse identity.

Below, Omar was given the high fashion treatment in Vogue Arabia despite her political remarks.

But her behavior goes beyond mere rudeness to the United States — her apparent criminal activity is plentiful and diverse. Fox News reported on Thursday that she is being investigated by several federal agencies for various scams and assorted lawbreaking:

TRACE GALLEGHER: The case was initially assigned by the Department of Justice to an FBI agent: now Democratic Congresswoman Ilan Omar is reportedly also being looked at by Customs and Immigration Enforcement or ICE and the Inspector General for the Department of Education.

The Blaze is reporting the allegations include perjury, immigration fraud, tax fraud, student loan fraud and possibly bigamy. The investigation is focused on Omar’s 2009 marriage to Ahmed Nur Said Elmi who Judicial Watch claims is her biological brother that she married to skirt immigration laws.

And now there’s allegations the marriage might also have been used to obtain illegal student loans and that while she was married to Said Elmi, Omar allegedly filed illegal joint tax returns with Ahmed Hirsi. He’s the father of her three children who she religiously married in 2002, separated from in 2008, then legally married him in 2018 before legally divorcing him.

Omar calls the allegations baseless yet refuses and has four months to answer questions or turn over any documents, though soon she may be compelled to turn over those documents and answer questions.

Republican Governors Request Additional Refugees!

There are billions of people on earth who would benefit economically by relocating to the United States, so many are happy to claim victimhood as a refugee or asylum seeker to wangle a way in.

But just being a poor human on earth is not enough to qualify for asylum in the US. In fact, the acceptance rate for asylum seekers fell to less than one percent over the last year under the current tightened rules.

Refugee resettlement costs the taxpayers $1.8 billion annually, according to a study published by the Federation for American Immigration Reform (FAIR) in 2018. So less is better for everyone, particularly in the home countries which could benefit greatly from reformist movements rather than citizens who dream of escaping rather than fixing the place.

Tucker Carlson recently discussed the Republican governors who succumbed to the pleas of resettlement moochers and actually have requested more refugees for their states — bad craziness!

Spare Audio:

TUCKER CARLSON: If you remember that far back, during President Barack Obama’s second term, Republican leaders in the Congress made a big show of opposing the Obama administration’s refugee policy. Obama wanted to settle tens of thousands of refugees who had fled Syria’s civil war in the United States, and at the time 25 Republican governors demanded the right to keep them out. Now the left accused them of Racism! of course but there are good reasons to take the position they did.

For example, properly vetting refugees is really hard, often it’s impossible. Some of the refugees, they pointed out, might not even be Syrian. That was true for sure in Europe with the refugees. Some of them might be Islamic extremists, but terrorism was not the only worry they had.

America’s middle class is in decline. We already have more than 20 million illegal immigrants living here. The last thing many struggling communities need is more low skilled migrants who may be great people but need a lot — stress the schools and the social programs, while not fully integrated.

That’s just true, and anyone who lives in a community where it’s happened will tell you that it’s true.

As with illegal immigration, a long-term agenda of refugee resettlement is to bring in future Democratic voters — obviously — so before she became the most anti-American member of Congress, Ilhan Omar was a refugee.

So at the time the Republican governors got their wish, and President Trump won the 2016 election. In 2019 he issued an executive order allowing cities and states to opt out of refugee resettlement —that’s the last time we checked in on this story.

Here’s the amazing part — for some reason no Republican governors are taking advantage of that. Instead — you probably didn’t read this in the New York Times — but 18 Republican governors have explicitly requested that more refugees be sent to their states.

Have their voters demanded this? No, so what’s going on here?

Ned Ryun is the founder of American Majority and author of Restoring our Republic. He joins us tonight. So Ned, I don’t think there’s any evidence that Republican voters in the states have been begging their Republican governors to move more refugees in, so why are these governors literally asking the federal government to do this?

NED RYUN: This is unreal, Tucker. I mean again you pointed out that Trump gave them a strong backstop back in September and said you can opt out of this with his executive order and now you have these 18 Republican governors saying no, we want more, and they’re saying well we’re following our hearts, this is Christian charity in action.

I got to say this, Tucker, as a active devout evangelical Christian, refugee resettlement has nothing to do with Christianity and has everything to do with the immoral behavior of these governors and quite frankly a perverse incentive for these government funded charities that are acting as refugee contractors, grifting off the American taxpayer.

Michelle Malkin’s written about some of this, but the US State Department is paying these refugee contractors over $2100 per refugee of which they get to keep 45 percent, and then they’re doing this this campaign on these governors saying you have to put your Christian charity into action, and in an act of cowardice, most of these governors from red states are giving in to this. (Continues)

Near the end of the interview, Tucker said of the governors, “I really wish we had run their names on the screen” — although the televised map provides some hints.

Helpfully, Breitbart listed the governors in an article, so feel free to contact one or all with your reaction regarding their ill-considered generosity:

The List: 17 GOP Governors Approve More Refugees for their States, Breitbart.com, January 3, 2020

A total of 17 Republican governors thus far have approved more refugee resettlement for their states, along with five Democrat governors who govern red states.

For Fiscal Year 2020, President Donald Trump will continue cutting refugee admissions by reducing former President Barack Obama’s refugee inflow by at least 80 percent. This reduction would mean a maximum of 18,000 refugees can be resettled in the U.S. between October 1, 2019, and September 30, 2020. This is merely a numerical limit and not a goal federal officials are supposed to reach.

Coupled with the refugee reduction, Trump signed an executive order that gives localities, counties, and states veto power over whether they want to resettle refugees in their communities.

To date, these Republican governors in 17 states have asked the Trump administration to continue resettling refugees in their states:

  • Mike DeWine of Ohio
  • Asa Hutchinson of Arkansas
  • Kim Reynolds of Iowa
  • Charlie Baker of Massachusetts
  • Gary Herbert of Utah
  • Doug Burgum of North Dakota
  • Chris Sununu of New Hampshire
  • Doug Ducey of Arizona
  • Eric Holcomb of Indiana
  • Bill Lee of Tennessee
  • Kevin Stitt of Oklahoma
  • Pete Ricketts of Nebraska
  • Kristi Noem of South Dakota
  • Jim Justice of West Virginia
  • Mike Parson of Missouri
  • Brad Little of Idaho
  • Larry Hogan of Maryland

Democrat Party Is Being Run by Its Far Left, Not Speaker Pelosi

It’s sad to see the Democrat Party members go completely bonkers over the Trump presidency. We know it’s normal to be disappointed when your tribe loses a major election, but adults have a few drinks, pull up their socks and carry on with life. Democrats are doing no such thing, at least in the House of Representatives.

The next election is a little over a year away, yet the D-elites want to erase the 2016 one with the biggest weapon they have. The Dems are pushing impeachment rather than responding with thoughtful policies for their 2020 presidential candidate to take which is how things are meant to work.

Politicians are supposed to accept the people’s decision in elections, but Democrats have been plotting against Trump since Day One. This is not how the citizens want their country run.

Ned Ryun appeared on Tucker Carlson’s show Friday, discussing how the far left has taken over the D-party.

Tucker agreed that the four Squad members are “really in charge of the Democratic Party” rather than Speaker Pelosi.

TUCKER CARLSON: Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez is not a genius, she doesn’t know a lot, but what she lacks in impressive quality, she makes up for with pure aggression and moxie, and as a result, she and her friends now dominate and to some extent, control the Democratic Party. They’re the ones pushing impeachment.

REP. ILHAN OMAR (D-MN): A corrupt President who violates his oath in office must and will be impeached.

REP. AYANNA PRESSLEY (D-MA): It is absolutely time to start formal impeachment proceedings.

REP. ALEXANDRIA OCASIO-CORTEZ (D-NY): What he has admitted to is already impeachable, regardless of future developments.

REP. RASHIDA TLAIB (D-MI): I know it’s time, it’s been time. We must impeach this lawless President.

CARLSON: Well, Congresswoman Rashida Tlaib, she is a charmer. The last one you saw there is selling impeach the mother-effer t-shirts online. Now, that of course echoes a promise she made well before the Ukraine controversy even existed.

Ned Ryun is the Founder of American Majority, and he joins us tonight. So, Ned, you know, for the first I would say, a couple months that the squad became prominent, it was a Republican talking point to say for obvious reasons that they’re really in charge of the Democratic Party. But it’s starting to kind of seem true. Continue reading this article

Tucker Carlson Examines Accusations of Campaign Finance Violations by Representative Ilhan Omar

Representative Ilhan Omar is a prime example of the failure of America’s immigration system: the unfortunate emphasis on diversity has welcomed all sorts of groups and individuals that add nothing of value and actively hate this country. The worst of course are muslims: their holy book instructs followers to conquer infidels around the world — the koran has more than 100 verses promoting violence as part of the faith. Another strategy that has become more common is hijrah — immigration for the propagation of belief in Islam.

Along with the conquering comes the idea of Islamic superiority even though their societies are basket cases.

Omar seems to share the attitude of superiority, apparent in her disrespect for western law and culture. Born in Somalia, she lived with her family in a Kenya camp until the US rescued them as refugees in the mid-1990s, although there is evidence she entered by claiming relation to persons who were not her family. She apparently married her brother so he could scam his way into America. After so much generosity, Omar complains about the nation that rescued her and says living here is “an everyday assault.”

She can’t even be bothered to follow the laws of the Congress to which she was elected — unimportant infidel details, she may think.

Tucker Carlson investigated the latest news about Omar which concerns campaign finance violations that may have occurred during her affair with a married consultant:

TUCKER CARLSON: Congressman Ilhan Omar is back in the news again. In newly released divorce papers, a claim has made that she has had a long term affair with a political consultant — her political consultant named Tim Mynett.

A new complaint says Omar’s involvement with Mynett may have violated campaign finance laws. Peter Flaherty is Chairman of the National Legal and Policy Center, and he joins us tonight. Peter, thanks very much for coming on.

PETER FLAHERTY: Good evening.

CARLSON: So typically, we don’t jump into people personal lives because, it’s kind of no one’s business, I think. But in this specific case, you have an allegation that a relationship like this could violate the law. How would that work?

FLAHERTY: Well, the problem here is that private actions may have resulted in violations of the law, the Federal Election Campaign Act. And in this case, you have Representative Ilhan Omar’s campaign paying for the travel of a political consultant with which it’s alleged that Representative Omar is having an affair.

Now, that opens the possibility that campaign funds are being used for personal purposes, which is strictly prohibited. And it has ended the careers of many of a politician. Continue reading this article

Judicial Watch Files Ethics Complaint against Rep. Ilhan Omar

On Wednesday, Tucker Carlson discussed the fascinating case of Ilhan Omar, the Somali-born elected congressional representative from Minnesota. Some might call her a demonstration of how diverse persons can succeed in America.

Others might notice Omar’s sketchy past and see a criminal who just hasn’t been prosecuted yet. The charges are not new and have been examined here previously.

Tucker interviewed Tom Fitton, whose organization Judicial Watch recently delivered a request that the House investigate Omar for her alleged unlawful behaviors, including perjury, immigration fraud, marriage fraud, state and federal tax fraud, and federal student loan fraud. Read the particulars: Judicial Watch Files House Ethics Complaint against Rep. Ilhan Omar over Potential Immigration, Marriage, Tax, and Student Loan Fraud.

Tucker called Omar a lunatic, but a better characterization might be that she is a cultural stew of arrogant sharia-compliant muslim immigrant who believes she will prevail over the stupid infidels in America. Oh, and political correctness is on her side also, since she is not shy about calling critics Racist, as she did in her recent New York Times opinion piece Ilhan Omar: It Is Not Enough to Condemn Trump’s Racism.

TUCKER CARLSON: In a resurfaced interview from 2018, Ilhan Omar told Al Jazeera that America ought to engage in racial profiling of white men, whom she blamed for, quote, “Most of the deaths within this country.”

ILHAN OMAR: I would say our country should be more fearful of white man across our country because they are actually causing most of the deaths within this country. We should be profiling, monitoring and creating policies to fight the radicalization of white men.

CARLSON: In the same interview, Omar said America shouldn’t worry about young Muslims leaving her state of Minnesota to fight for ISIS or Al-Shabaab. The real — I’m not making this up, I’ve got to pause right here, because we’re not making this up. It’s hard to believe, but we’re actually not, this is real.

Omar said the real concern was the rhetoric of local politicians, which apparently drove these young terrorists into terrorism. In short, Ilhan Omar is a lunatic, an embarrassing blight on American politics, but hopefully, one that will eventually pass.

Recently, the group Judicial Watch filed a formal ethics complaint against Omar. The group requested a full investigation into matters that include potential tax fraud, marriage fraud, and immigration fraud, as well as perjury. Tom Fitton is the President of Judicial Watch, and he joins us tonight. Tom, thanks for coming on. What are you hoping to find from Congresswoman Omar?

TOM FITTON: Well, whether she’s a crook or not. The House Ethics Committee needs to begin the process of figuring out whether the strong evidence of marriage and other criminal activity or marriage fraud and other criminal activity is accurate, in terms of she did it. Continue reading this article

Tucker Carlson Analyzes a Notable Failure of Diverse Immigration

On Tuesday, Tucker Carlson used Rep. Ilhan Omar as an example of how the left’s diversity ideology has been very damaging to America via our corroded immigration policy.

The Minnesota Democrat is clearly not the sort of person we want in the US Congress. She hates America, the nation that rescued her from failed state Somalia when she was 10. In a March interview in Vogue Arabia (!), she said that living in Trump’s America is an “everyday assault.”

Interestingly, the title of the Vogue interview is Ilhan Omar: “To Me, the Hijab Means Power, Liberation, Beauty, and Resistance” which indicates that she is a full tilt sharia muslim.

By supporting Islamic dress codes for women, Omar has become a fashion icon for misogynous sharia proponents as well as a well known anti-American figure in the US Congress.

My only criticism of Tucker’s remarks is that he failed to mention Omar’s sharia Islam ideology — that’s the reason she hates America, not because she is a black African. Islam is not a race, despite the predictable condemnations from the press based on that overused subject.

(Spare video here.)

TUCKER CARLSON: The Democratic candidates for President are on the road this week telling voters that the United States is an awful country. “America’s institutions are built on white supremacy,” squeaked Beto O’Rourke in an event yesterday.

Of all the lies these people tell — and there are many — this is the most absurd. In fact, the United States is the kindest, most open-minded place on the planet. The U.S. has done more for other people and received less in return than any nation in history by far.

Americans like to help. It makes us feel good. Some of our deepest satisfaction as a country comes from watching penniless immigrants arrive on our shores, buy into our values and thrive. We call it the American Dream and nothing makes us prouder.

It was in that spirit that in 1992, the United States welcomed 10-year-old Ilhan Omar and her family. Omar was born in Somalia, one of the world’s poorest countries. It was then ruled by a Marxist military dictatorship. When Omar was six, she and her parents and their six siblings fled a worsening civil war and wound up in a refugee camp in Kenya. They spent four years there until America offered the family asylum here and let them settle in Minneapolis.

Omar’s father drove a taxi at first then got a job at the Post Office working for the government. Omar, meanwhile, grew up free in the world’s richest country with all the bounty that that implies.

She became a citizen, then went to work for the State University. A few years later, she became a Member of Congress elected by voters who are proud to see an immigrant succeed.

Omar is now at the age of only 36, one of the most powerful women in America. It’s an amazing story really. Only in this country could it have happened.

Ilhan Omar has an awful lot to be grateful for, but she isn’t grateful. Not at all. After everything America has done for Omar and for her family, she hates this country more than ever. Continue reading this article

President Trump’s Proposal to Improve the Quality of Immigrants Meets Opposition from the Usual Quarters

President Trump has called for a fundament change in the government’s immigration system to require skills of entrants, rather than continue the current family-based system concocted by Sen Ted Kennedy in 1965.

It’s a popular proposal, according to a Rasmussen poll published May 20, titled, Voters Still See Skills-Based Legal Entry As Immigration Fix:

Voters continue to believe the U.S. immigration system is broken and still tend to favor shifting to the skills-based system that President Trump is proposing.

The latest Rasmussen Reports national telephone and online survey finds that 55% of Likely U.S. Voters agree with Senator Lindsey Graham’s assessment last week that “we have a perfect storm brewing at the border because of a series of broken and outdated laws related to asylum and children.”

Tucker Carlson recently presented some observations about “merit” as a value in immigration after the Democrats had the predictable reaction of squawking “Racist!” at the president for common sense. Rep. Maxine Waters reflexively described the Trump immigration policy as “very racist” last week for requiring knowledge of English among newbies.

Some noticed that the Trump plan contained no overall reduction of immigrant numbers — something strongly indicated by the anemic wage growth among US workers. NumbersUSA released a video on May 6 expressing the worker viewpoint:

Another reason to decrease immigration is the increased use of worker-replacing robots. For example, Walmart (America’s largest company by revenue) is turning to automation to save money and increase efficiency:

Plus there is no discussion anywhere of the enormous factor of world population growth — now over 7.7 billion persons, more than double the 3.7 billion residents of the planet on the first Earth Day in 1970. Nearly all of that growth has occurred in the Third World which is now happy to send its excess people to America’s open border — remittances to follow, bringing billions of dollars to alien-sending countries south of the border and beyond.

Heres’s Tucker on the argument for merit-based immigration:

TUCKER CARLSON: Good evening, and welcome to “Tucker Carlson Tonight.” This week, the Trump administration revealed its proposal to overhaul America’s immigration system. The proposal would not by itself build the often promised wall on our southern border, nor would it cut current levels of immigration despite the fact that most Americans would like to see that happen.

The one big thing the administration’s proposal would do is give priority to immigrants who might actually help America — skilled workers with English proficiency. It’s hard to see an argument against a system like that — there isn’t really an argument against that system.

For years, Democrats have argued that immigrants make vital additions to our economy. They’re smarter than we are, they’re harder working, they do better in school. They found more companies.

Well, the President has decided to take Democrats at their word; he says he wants all of those good things that immigrants bring. Watch:

PRESIDENT DONALD TRUMP: We want immigrants coming in, we cherish the open door that we want to create for our country. But a big proportion of those immigrants must come in through merit and skill.

CARLSON: Well, much of the world would move here if they could — hundreds and hundreds of millions of people. So why wouldn’t we pick the absolute best immigrants with skills in English who would fit in better here, their kids would do better in school, they’d be more likely to contribute to social programs instead of draining them.

So are Democrats rejoicing in this change? Of course not. They’re outraged. House Speaker Nancy Pelosi spoke for the party when she declared that really merit is a bad word because everybody has merit:

REP. NANCY PELOSI: I want to just say something about the word that they use, “merit.” It is really a condescending word. Are they saying family is without merit? Are they saying most of the people who have ever come to the United States in the history of our country are without merit, because they don’t have an engineering degree?

Certainly, we want to attract the best to our country and that includes many people from many parts of society.

CARLSON: What a shame we can’t staff the Democratic Caucus in the Congress using the same criteria the Speaker would like to fill our country. “We want to attract the best for many parts of the world,” she says. But of course by that, Pelosi doesn’t mean what she says. She means just the opposite because what exactly is best about immigrants who have criminal records or middle school education, or no ability to hold a job? Continue reading this article

Philadelphia Muslim Kids Sing in Head-Chop Chorus

Many people claim to be shocked at the video of several kids wearing sharia outfits belt out a musical rendition of the violent parts of the Koran.

Well informed citizens should know by now that the muslim holy book is filled with instructions to kill the hated infidel. For reminders, please see TheReligionOfPeace.com page concerning Violence which begins:

Does the Quran really contain over a hundred verses that sanction violence?

The Quran contains at least 109 verses that speak of war with nonbelievers, usually on the basis of their status as non-Muslims. Some are quite graphic, with commands to chop off heads and fingers and kill infidels wherever they may be hiding. Muslims who do not join the fight are called ‘hypocrites’ and warned that Allah will send them to Hell if they do not join the slaughter.

Unfortunately, Washington has inflicted this poison on America, where it was unknown until recently. Most muslim residents of the US (or their parents) got here via immigration, although there are a few converts. One paper estimates that the muslim population of the United States in 1951 was just 200,000 while today there are millions, a demographic change aided by diversity-admiring pro-immigration politicians, like Barack Obama.

Below, a small group of jihadists killed nearly 3,000 Americans in the 9/11 attacks, based on the Koran’s admonitions.

And now, due to years of muslim immigration, Americans have a sharia-compliant congresswoman in Ilhan Omar and kids residing in Pennsylvania who sing about beheading non-Muslims.

Here’s a Fox News report:

Shocking video of children in Philadelphia Muslim Society: ‘We will chop off their heads’ for Allah, Fox News, May 4 2019

Disturbing footage of Muslim kids saying they would sacrifice themselves and kill for the “army of Allah” surfaced from an Islamic center in Philadelphia.

The Muslim American Society (MAS) Islamic Center in Philadelphia posted the video to its Facebook page celebrating “Ummah Day” in which young children wearing Palestinian scarves sang and read poetry about killing for Allah and the mosque in Jerusalem.

The Middle East Media Research Institute (MEMRI), a watchdog group, alerted Fox News to the video.

“These are not isolated incidents; they are happening in major centers of the country – including in Pennsylvania,” MEMRI said in a statement.

In the video, translated by MEMRI, kids can be heard singing: “The land of the Prophet Muhammad’s Night Journey is calling us. Our Palestine must return to us.”

One girl talks about martyrs sacrificing their lives without hesitation to conquer Jerusalem.

“We will defend the land of divine guidance with our bodies, and we will sacrifice our souls without hesitation,” a second girl says. “We will chop off their heads, and we will liberate the sorrowful and exalted Al-Aqsa Mosque. We will lead the army of Allah fulfilling His promise, and we will subject them to eternal torture.”

MAS Philly belongs to the Muslim American Society (MAS), which has 42 chapters in the United States and one in the United Kingdom. (Continues)

Living In America Is an “Everyday Assault” Says Minnesota Congresswoman Omar

Ilhan Omar is quite the well publicized figure in the magazine Vogue Arabia — yes, there is such a publication, apparently dedicated to explaining the possibilities for style even in the misogynous Middle East. Anything for a buck (or riyal), as they say.

Naturally the election of the Somali muslim to the US Congress is a big deal in the sharia zones abroad, who are observing activities within the Great Satan for signs of weakness.

Rep. Ilhan Omar is now being presented as a fashion icon in addition to her reputation as a divisive political figure.

However, the American mainstream press has ignored the unseemly reports about Omar marrying her brother to ease immigration to the US. For details, see the investigative pieces of Powerline’s Scott Johnson, ILHAN OMAR: CURIOUSER AND CURIOUSER and The Curious Case of Ilhan Omar.

Interestingly, she is quite honest about hating America, a nation which rescued her and her family from a Kenyan refugee camp, yet she says living here is “an everyday assault.”

On his Monday show, Tucker Carlson characterized America as the most generous country in history, but Washington’s choices about the recipients of kindness has not always been wise. It would be better not to welcome historic enemies of Western Civilization inside the gates, and certainly not elect them to the US Congress. But immigration demography will have its effects, and they were totally predictable: admit sharia followers and eventually some will attain a degree of political power.

TUCKER CARLSON (0:58): Omar’s country collapsed as a child. She lived for years in Kenya in that refugee camp; she may have died there without outside help. But help came. From where? From here — America.

And this country didn’t just welcome Ilhan Omar to America: we paid to relocate her family and many others from a foreign continent purely for the sake of being good people, for altruism, because no country in history has been as generous as we are to places we have no ties to and no obligations we’ve been kind anyway, because that’s who we are.

Despite her humble and foreign birth Omar has been elected to our national lawmaking body and good for her — so how does she repay her adopted country, the one that may literally have saved her life? She attacks it as hateful and racist.

And for that she is applauded by the Democratic Party because they view this country as hateful and racist too. The more Ilhan Omar’s America has, they believe, the better, But is that what’s best for America? Here’s another suggestion we should think about. Maybe our immigration system should prioritize people who actually like this country and are grateful to be here. Why wouldn’t we do that?

Here are some clips from Omar’s Vogue interview:

Ilhan Omar: “To Me, the Hijab Means Power, Liberation, Beauty, and Resistance”, Vogue Arabia, March 28, 2019

Twenty years after becoming a US citizen, Ilhan Omar made history in her adopted country. With her hand on her grandfather’s Qur’an, she was sworn into the US Congress, becoming the first hijabi member to do so. The scene was all the more poignant as it marked the lifting of a 181-year-old ban preventing anyone from wearing any kind of headwear in the chamber. Along with Rashida Tlaib (who doesn’t wear a hijab), she was also one of the first two Muslim women to enter Congress, and the first Somali-American. [. . .]

As the US representative for Minnesota’s 5th congressional district, one of Omar’s policies includes promoting and establishing a just immigration system; something that is at odds with the current political climate in the country. “It’s challenging,” she says of living in President Trump’s America, where her status and heritage is constantly criticized. “It’s an everyday assault. Every day, a part of your identity is threatened, demonized, and vilified. Trump is tapping into an ugly part of our society and freeing its ugliness.”

Omar is an example of what Democrats have in mind for America with their immigration project of extreme diversity.

Rep. Ilhan Omar’s Behavior Reflects Her Sharia Beliefs

It’s getting really hard to tell the truth about Islam these days, as shown by the ongoing controversy swirling around the new congressperson from Minnesota, Ilhan Omar, who has been roiling the Congress with her anti-semitic remarks over recent weeks.

You may remember her as the Somali who was accused of marrying her brother to make it easier to get into the United States, reported here last year: Somali Diversity Reaches US House of Representatives.

Below, Somali family values were illustrated in a PJ Media article that included corroborating photos.

Curiously, that backstory is missing from most of the reporting about the current controversy. Perhaps editors think the sibling marriage charge is just too much diversity for Americans to stomach.

In the latest installment, Jeanine Pirro was condemned by her bosses at Fox News for pointing out Omar’s divisive behavior in the judge’s Sunday show opener (read the transcript here):

Ilhan Omar is clear about who she is — shown by her daily hijab wearing — namely a muslim who follows the Koran and sharia.

It’s important to remember that Islam disrespects all non-muslims but has special dislike reserved for Jews, so Omar’s anti-semitic remarks are consistent with her belief system.

Robert Spencer, the proprietor of JihadWatch.org helpfully supplied chapter and verse from the Koran to illustrate Islamic anti-semitism:

Ilhan Omar thanks Fox for rebuking Jeanine Pirro, but Pirro is right: Hijab is a Sharia imperative, JihadWatch.org, March 11, 2019

Jeanine Pirro said: “Think about this: She’s not getting this anti-Israel sentiment doctrine from the Democrat Party. So if it’s not rooted in the party, where is she getting it from? Think about it. Omar wears a hijab, which according to the Quran 33:59, tells women to cover so they won’t get molested. Is her adherence to this Islamic doctrine indicative of her adherence to Sharia law, which in itself is antithetical to the United States Constitution?”

For that, Fox rebuked her and demanded she apologize. She had no genuine reason to do so. Sharia is indeed inveterately antisemitic: the Qur’an demonizes the Jews in numerous ways. It depicts the Jews as inveterately evil and bent on destroying the well-being of the Muslims. They are the strongest of all people in enmity toward the Muslims (5:82); they fabricate things and falsely ascribe them to Allah (2:79; 3:75, 3:181); they claim that Allah’s power is limited (5:64); they love to listen to lies (5:41); they disobey Allah and never observe his commands (5:13). They are disputing and quarreling (2:247); hiding the truth and misleading people (3:78); staging rebellion against the prophets and rejecting their guidance (2:55); being hypocritical (2:14, 2:44); giving preference to their own interests over the teachings of Muhammad (2:87); wishing evil for people and trying to mislead them (2:109); feeling pain when others are happy or fortunate (3:120); being arrogant about their being Allah’s beloved people (5:18); devouring people’s wealth by subterfuge (4:161); slandering the true religion and being cursed by Allah (4:46); killing the prophets (2:61); being merciless and heartless (2:74); never keeping their promises or fulfilling their words (2:100); being unrestrained in committing sins (5:79); being cowardly (59:13-14); being miserly (4:53); being transformed into apes and pigs for breaking the Sabbath (2:63-65; 5:59-60; 7:166); and more. They are under Allah’s curse (9:30), and Muslims should wage war against them and subjugate them under Islamic hegemony (9:29).

Sharia also mandates that women cover their heads:

“And tell the believing women to reduce their vision and guard their private parts and not expose their adornment except that which appears thereof and to wrap their headcovers over their chests and not expose their adornment except to their husbands, their fathers, their husbands’ fathers, their sons, their husbands’ sons, their brothers, their brothers’ sons, their sisters’ sons, their women, that which their right hands possess, or those male attendants having no physical desire, or children who are not yet aware of the private aspects of women. And let them not stamp their feet to make known what they conceal of their adornment. And turn to Allah in repentance, all of you, O believers, that you might succeed.” (Qur’an 24:31)

“O Prophet, tell your wives and your daughters and the women of the believers to bring down over themselves their outer garments. That is more suitable that they will be known and not be abused. And ever is Allah Forgiving and Merciful.” (Qur’an 33:59) . . .

Wearing hijab is a sign that one accepts these imperatives. That is not necessarily true, as lots of women of all perspectives wear headscarves, but when a Muslim woman wears hijab, it’s reasonable to surmise that she accepts the Qur’an and Sunnah, the sources of Sharia. Sharia denies the freedom of speech, the freedom of conscience, the equality of rights of women, and the equality of rights of non-Muslims. Wearing hijab is a sign of adherence to Sharia. So what did Judge Jeanine Pirro say that was wrong about Ilhan Omar? She asked questions that need to be asked.
