Picking up the Pace at Refugee Resettlement Watch

~ Ann Corcoran ~ 2 Comments

Just a quick note to let you know that I am picking up my posting at Refugee Resettlement Watch as Biden/Harris are promising 125,000 refugees will be admitted to the US this year.

And, that number does not include the number of wannabe asylees headed to the southern border at this moment!

Longtime readers know that I first began writing about the refugee resettlement industry in 2007.  I have archived 9,577 posts there. And, unfortunately we are back to square-one after a brief period of hope that the refugee admissions program might be scraped or at least reformed.

Our President Trump kept the numbers of third worlders low for the last few years, and especially low since the Chinese virus crisis began, but all that will change now.

If you are looking for the latest news on the crisis in Washington, I recommend Gateway Pundit, Conservative Treehouse (aka The Last Refuge) and JusttheNews.  I am sure there are others, but those sites come immediately to mind and will keep you fully informed.

I’m not going away, just gotta get caught up at RRW!

Cross-posted from Refugee Resettlement Watch: How RINOs Undermined the President

Watch Neumann with Jake Tapper at CNN as she tells him how he makes us less safe because of his “divisive language.” https://www.cnn.com/videos/politics/2020/08/28/elizabeth-neumann-ex-trump-official-speech-sot-vpx-lead.cnn

Yesterday I wrote about Elizabeth Neumann, a former Republican big wig at the Department of Homeland Security who claimed she supported the President initially because she is pro-life, but decided to work against him because he cut back on immigration and talked mean “racist” talk. Talk, she says, that makes America less safe.

So much for her devotion to life as she actively worked on behalf of pro-abortion Biden/Harris, making innocent babies less safe. See here.

Neumann has described herself as “first and foremost a follower of Jesus Christ,” and her 2016 decision to vote for Trump as “primarily because of the pro-life issue.”

She subsequently re-examined her earlier convictions (?) and concluded that admitting 125,000 refugees a year is more important than babies!  She claims America is safer when we open our borders.

I’m posting this here because I am not sure how many of you see Refugee Resettlement Watch and because I have a category here specially made for posts like this—political rats.  That is a category I originally made when I wrote about the Lincoln Project, but it has come in handy.

For All of the News Junkies Out There: Aggregator Sites You Should Know About

~ Ann Corcoran ~ 13 Comments

If you have been attempting to follow conservative news for at least the last decade, you probably originally followed Drudge.  Well, forget Drudge.  Something weird happened there and it’s not worth looking into, but somehow Drudge sold out.

Here are a few sites available as an alternative.  This is by no means an exhaustive list, but it’s a start.

Whatfinger News

Revolver News

Rantingly

Update:  A reader suggests PopulistPress.com and a second reader reminds us about The Epoch Times.

Update #2:  More suggestions from another reader:

Citizen Free Press

The Right News

Real Clear Investigations

Update #3:  A reader recommends:  The Liberty Daily

Update #4:  Another reader suggests Weaselzippers.

And for news on immigration, I recommend Borderhawk.

In addition, one of the sites I visit from time to time is Survival Pulse which collects an interesting mix of new posts every day from the prepper/survival blogs.

Update!  Looks like Lin Wood must be reading the prepper blogs too!

 

Of course you have likely already figured out that most patriots are moving to Newsmax TV and One America News (OAN) for cable news.

If you have some other aggregation sites you like, please send me a comment to this post.

On Comments!

I do see all of your comments since I have to approve them.  They are not automatically posted because you wouldn’t believe the crap that would get through if I didn’t review them.  Sometimes I don’t get to them for a day or so, so don’t be discouraged if you haven’t seen yours posted immediately.

For new readers, I am a blogger, not a group.  I have no staff, I regularly write another blog, RRW, and I have a life!

It is impossible for me to get to all of your e-mails, so if you really want to send me something that you want to make sure I see, send it as a comment to a post.  You can preface the comment with “NOT FOR PUBLICATION.”  I will see the message within a day that way and it won’t be posted.

WordPress Deplatforms Conservative Treehouse, NOT the First and Won’t be the Last!

~ Ann Corcoran ~ 6 Comments

Many of you have sent me the news that the Conservative Treehouse (aka The Last Refuge) has been notified by WordPress.com that they are being given the heave-ho and now must find a new host for their popular site.

When I saw the news of course I felt bad for them because I have been there.

Longtime readers here and at my blog, Refugee Resettlement Watch, which was birthed and began being hosted by WordPress in 2007 (and into early 2019), know that the same thing happened to me.

But, at least the Treehouse was given notice and time to remove their material.  I was shut down without notice and had to hire a professional webmaster to help me get my material, but even with that, all of my photos/graphs/charts and all of my thousands of subscribers did not make it to the new RRW.

Search engines (Google at least) still directs people to the old closed site.

(In the meantime, I had started Frauds & Crooks and got it removed from WordPress before they could do a job on it too.  I am at a hopefully safe host for now!)

By the way, I was not alone.  Creeping Sharia and Bare Naked Islam got the WordPress ax before I did.  I should have known it was coming.

I discuss all of that here in a panel discussion on Censorship at the Social Contract gathering in the fall of 2019.

So when I saw the news about the Conservative Treehouse, my first thought was why hadn’t the blogger(s) there made the move sooner.

You can read all about my communication with WordPress.com over their censorship by going here.  They said I had violated their “terms of service” after I contacted them to ask where was my site?

Upon review of your WordPress.com site we have determined that your content does not align with our Terms of Service or User Guidelines.

So, on July 2nd (this is all happening in 2019) I went back to the “community guardian” and asked these questions:

Can you tell me exactly what caused your concern about Refugee Resettlement Watch. This month marks the 12th anniversary of the launch of that blog with you. And, in recent months there has been little new activity there. So just wondering why it is now, after all this time, [it’s] not aligned with your terms of service.

Is there a particular post(s) that concerned you and if so could you direct me to them?

Have you had recent complaints about the blog even as it hasn’t been active for many months?

Were references to certain organizations a concern?

Would really love to know as I find another host for the nearly 9,000 posts archived at RRW.

Greatly appreciate any feedback you can give me!

Thank you!
Ann Corcoran

The Community Guardian responded.  She says flat-out they don’t have to give me any reasons!

Here is what I received in response on July 3rd.  We can call it the ‘go pound sand’ brush-off e-mail:

Upon review of your WordPress.com site we have determined that your content does not align with our Terms of Service or User Guidelines. As stated in our Terms, we may choose to stop providing service to an account at any time, for any reason, or none at all.

Notice the threat!

Please keep in mind that other hosts may have similarly restrictive policies regarding this type of content.

But, they never admit what exactly is the “type of content” they are censoring!

All of that was to preface my comments on this story at The Lid:

TECH TYRANNY: Silencing Conservative News With A Sick New Tactic — This Is Big

 

Go read it.  But, The Lid beware!  This form of censorship is NOT NEW! You are nuts to stay on WordPress.com. They will find you as soon as you become a threat to some group or individuals on the Commie Left.

If Biden and his comrades have their way we will be communicating by quietly traveling around the country and meeting in peoples’ basements!

Endnote:  Story for another day!  Someone should investigate WordPress.com and the company that owns it Automatic!  

My Blogging Might be Most Useful at Refugee Resettlement Watch

As I have been hinting here, I am slowing down.  There are many many fantastic sites covering fraud especially now as it relates to the massive election fraud we are daily seeing exposed.  With only so much time in a day that I can devote to posting, I’ll concentrate right now at RRW since it really isn’t covered much these days elsewhere.

I have posted 9,557 posts at RRW since 2007 and I need to continue to build on the archives there.

I will still post here, but am driving myself crazy trying to do both.

See yesterday’s post at RRW:

Millions in Africa and Asia Assume Biden/Harris Will Open America’s Gates

This morning I’m working on a post on China and the fact that they don’t want any Middle Eastern refugees (actually they don’t take refugees at all).

One last thing, before the speech police took down RRW I had thousands of subscribers that were lost and I have never regained them. Of course when Trump won in 2016 all of us naturally assumed the refugee controversy was behind us.  It isn’t and now more than ever it will come raging back if Biden/Harris steal the election.
