Aliens Abroad Look Forward to a Biden Presidency — and Open Borders

The New York Times correctly envisions a Biden administration as having a far more forgiving border, unlike the illiberal sovereignty enforcement of the current president. In fact, the cartels are “telling migrants ‘border will be open’ when Biden takes over” according to Rep. Henry Cuellar.

The Times’ December 14 front page featured a sob-story style […]

Acceptance Rate for Asylum Seekers to US Falls to Less Than One Percent

According to the World Bank in 2018, more than three billion persons on earth (out of the more than seven billion that year) struggled to meet their basic needs. Certainly most of them would benefit from relocation to the First World, but it’s not possible for Europe and North America to admit such enormous numbers.

Illegal Alien Guatemalans Flee Volcano (Etc.) to United States

Thursday’s front page of the Washington Post featured Guatemalan illegal aliens “streaming to the U.S. border” because America has been mean to them historically and they have been unlucky regarding a volcano. Or something.

Naturally, when a volcano erupts, people in the area have to flee so they aren’t burned alive, Pompeii style. But […]

Fake Microfinance Is Pitched as Fueling Illegal Immigration from Guatemala

This front-page article from Tuesday’s Washington Post gets so much wrong that it’s hard to know where to start. It discusses “microfinance” in Guatemala and how locals use it to illegally immigrate to the United States. The story mentions Muhammad Yunus as “one of the forefathers of microfinance” even though the ordinary bank loans discussed […]

ICE Air Ships Invaders Home for Free

Deportations aren’t horror shows, as Sunday’s Washington Post described in a front-page article. Foreigners are apparently happy to return to their countries even though the circumstances may not be the best; however the price is right for passengers when the US taxpayer picks up the tab.

But, as one deportee remarked, “We’ll all be back […]

Failed “Migrants” Leave for Home in Central America

There’s nothing like an emotional self-deportation sob story to lift the spirits of sovereignty defenders crushed by Trump’s open borders, and a recent item from the San Diego Union-Tribune is encouraging.

In particular, we hear from foreigners complaining at length about their treatment in rough shelters when they apparently thought they would get deluxe accommodations. […]

L.A. Times Promotes Illegal Immigration as Helpful to Guatemala

Sunday’s Los Angeles Times has an upbeat front-page article about a Guatemalan town that has been transformed for the better by illegal immigration. The residents love America for its jobs and free stuff, shown by a “proliferation of U.S. flags” and new houses built in a style called “remittance architecture.”

Indeed, the money sent […]

Many Guatemalan Coffee Growers Plan to Illegally Immigrate to US

Wednesday’s Washington Post gave front-page coverage to its sob story of poor coffee farmers in Guatemala who claim to be driven from their land by low prices for their crop.

The article says the “price of coffee has crashed” although the beverage is the important personal fuel of many millions in the First World. The […]

“Save the Suffering Centrals!” New York Times Pleads

On Tuesday, the New York Times presented the liberal case for opening the border to crime-ridden Central Americans by showing a murder scene plus a story about the normal violence there. The paper admitted “El Salvador has one of the highest homicide rates in Latin America — 60 killings per 100,000 residents,” but excessive crime […]

Caravan Invaders Are Discussed regarding the Law Involved

Sometimes you hear interesting facts when two smart lawyers are debating the issues, and the interview of Texas Attorney General Ken Paxton by Shannon Bream on Fox News included some fascinating law discussion.

Discussing the caravan invaders, the AG remarked:

KEN PAXTON: I don’t think Trump is going to let them in. If you look […]

Illegal Alien Families May Prefer Separation

As we have noticed, illegal aliens have been hauling along their kiddies mid-invasion, believing their presence makes lawbreaking more appealing somehow.

Perhaps that ploy works for the ACLU; the rest of us think the invaders are irresponsible parents, along with being job thieves.

Any American parent who transported their toddlers on top of a freight […]

Robot T-shirt Factory Is Planned for Arkansas

Here’s a snapshot of the automated, globalized future: a Chinese company has acquired a factory in Arkansas to produce t-shirts for the German company Adidas using robot sewing machines from Atlanta business SoftWear Automation.

Clothing manufacture is big business and is important to small, poor countries like Honduras where the income from sewing jobs helps […]
