Border Chaos Reveals Diverse Family Values

The mainstream media continues to froth big liberal virtue signals about the suffering foreign kiddies who are sick and worse in the border zone, blaming an inadequate rescue system for failing to keep up with the crush of humanity. Funny how the scribblers never fault the irresponsible parents (fake and genuine) who drag children for […]

Tucker Carlson: Mexico Is Not America’s Friend

Tucker Carlson recently opined that Russia presents no danger to America’s election integrity, but Mexico absolutely does threaten through meddling with the opinions of its immigrants who reside here and may even be citizens of this country.

If anything, Carlson understates the case.

It’s been clear for a long time that Mexico is a genuine […]

Warehouse Work Is Increasingly Done by Robots

A major reason why Amazon honcho Jeff Bezos is the richest man in the world ($132B in 2018) was his early adoption of robots in his warehouses — see my 2016 article Amazon Robotics in The Social Contract for background.

Below, the Kiva robots of Amazon scoot under the appropriate rack of merchandise and bring […]

Mexican Elderly Visit Illegal Alien Children in America, Courtesy US State Department

Is the immigration sob story genre making a comeback? As I pointed out in my 2002 article, The Style Guide To Writing A Sensitive Immigrant Story, emotions are foremost, showing the humanity of foreigners who are illegally present in this country, because liberal ideology is not interested in such details.

The New York Times featured […]

Tucker Carlson Interviews New ICE Director Mark Morgan

Tucker’s discussion with Mark Morgan about what can be done regarding border anarchy was brief but packed with a lot of information. Morgan is realistic enough about open-borders Democrats to understand the current House of Representatives is unlikely to pass the legislation needed to update our very inadequate immigration laws. So he has some stand-alone […]

Open Border Crossers Get the Deluxe Treatment from Uncle Sucker

Leave it the New York Times to insult Americans on Memorial Day by featuring an enormous sob story of an illegal alien family being transported through America to their destination. By comparison, other liberal papers like the Washington Post and Los Angeles Times front-paged patriotic stories of remembrance suitable to the occasion.

Below, highlighting a […]

A Historian Remembers D-Day

PragerU’s Memorial Day video focuses on June 6, 1944, the day the Allies gambled big to take back Europe from the Nazis.

Peter Caddick-Adams presents a brief review of how close a thing the invasion was, how easily it could have been a disaster if the many deceptions had failed to make the Germans think […]

Fully Automated Package Delivery System Is Planned

Automation designers have a two-fer human job killer on the drawing boards — a combo self-driving van equipped with a separate robot that can deliver customers’ order mail-order boxes right to the door. The robot hops out of the van, grabs the package and carries it to the delivery point, even managing several stairs.

Feds Attempt to Relieve Border Stress by Dumping Foreigners in Southern California

Poor Murrieta, California. There is a Border Patrol station located there to keep an eye on the I-15 highway heading north through Utah and Montana, so the community tends to come up in government minds when they want to relocate a gaggle of illegal aliens who continue to accumulate.

In 2014, the feds attempted to […]

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 […]

California Faces Another Dam Failure Threat

On Saturday, the Los Angeles Times front-paged an article with the headline “Concerns are raised over dam’s flood risk.” The structure in question is located in southern suburban California, and the dam’s failure could endanger numerous communities, including Anaheim and Disneyland.

Should Mickey Mouse grab Minnie and run, as California now experiences a rare May […]

Farm Robots Advance in Technology with Increased Autonomy

Bloomberg reports that farm robots are coming on strong, and that assessment makes perfect sense. The tasks of smart agricultural machines are generally simple and distinct, like weeding, plowing, spraying and picking: unlike self-driving cars, safety issues are minimal because human workers have disappeared from automated fields.

In addition, recent robots have become increasingly autonomous, […]
