Could Illegal Aliens be Responsible for Jump in Chinese Virus Cases in Border States?

Todd Bensman, writing at the Center for Immigration Studies, thinks that is possible.

Mounting Evidence Points to Covid Refugees from Mexico as a Major Factor in Border-State Spikes

Evidence continues to mount that spikes in Covid cases in U.S. border states are due to successive waves of infected people fleeing Mexico’s dysfunctional and overwhelmed hospitals to get American medical care at least as much, if not more than, to the re-opening of those states’ economies.

This matters because officials in border states are beginning to base policy decisions for partial lock-downs on grounds that lifting them is what caused the spikes.

Although the states and hospitals do not release nationality or immigration status information, several Border Patrol agents told the Center for Immigration Studies that, per policy, they have been transporting to U.S. care facilities increasing numbers of illegal Central American border-crossers they apprehend who report Covid-like symptoms, as well as Cubans, Venezuelans, Ecuadorans, and other nationalities.

The U.S. Customs and Border Protection’s media relations office was not able confirm the extent to which that was happening, but did release the following statement regarding Border Patrol hospital runs such as those the agents described.

“CBP has longstanding procedures in place to ensure that the individuals we encounter are able to receive treatment from local health authorities or other medical professionals. All persons in CBP custody who meet the Center for Disease Control’s Covid-19 travel history and enhanced screening guidelines are being referred to the CDC or local health officials for additional screening. CBP takes all necessary precautions to ensure that no communicable diseases are spread across populations in custody.”

Earlier, the Washington Post, the New York Times, and the Wall Street Journal all reported a crush of infected people from Mexico coming over the Arizona and California borders, although the publications say all appear to be American expatriates, dual citizenship holders, and Mexican legal permanent residents.

States appear to be transporting many to interior facilities to keep bed space free on the border as the influx continues, adding to the impression that these imported patients were infected inside the United States due to lifting lock-downs rather than in Mexico, where few social distancing measures were implemented.

The Times and now Reuters have reported that California, for instance, has been airlifting Covid patients from “saturated” border clinics to hospitals in the state’s interior.

CAIR Sucks Up to Black Lives Matter

~ Ann Corcoran ~ 4 Comments

I know, nothing you didn’t already assume, but I’m posting this to encourage you to follow the opposition. Knowledge is power!

Sign up, as reader Bob did, and receive regular missives from those groups working to transform America, two prime examples being the Southern Poverty Law Center and the Council on American Islamic Relations (CAIR).

As I have reported recently, there is tension between Arab/South Asian Muslims and blacks so the leadership at CAIR obviously determined that it needed to suck up to BLM.

NYT Opinion: White Muslims Must Face their Anti-Black Racism

 

See CAIR unfurl its banner over its Washington, DC headquarters:

And now see them chortling over a couple of white scalps in California.

Here see Ibrahim Hooper cheer the removal of California school officials whose facebook posts offended them.

CAIR Central CA Welcomes School Officials’ Resignations after Bigoted Posts

(FRESNO, CA, 6/25/20) – The Central California office of the Council on American-Islamic Relations (CAIR-CC) today welcomed the recent resignations of two school officials after they posted bigoted content on their Facebook pages.

Fresno’s Central Unified School District trustee Richard Atkins came under fire for a bigoted Facebook post he shared last weekend. He posted,

“If you don’t Love the Country you live in, then go back to the country you or your ancestors came from. I’m SICK of this S***.”

He resigned Tuesday from his position.

Sara Wilkins had the nerve to say she was proud to be white.

At the beginning of this week, the private Facebook account of Sara Wilkins, the president of the Madera County Board of Education, shared an image of a Confederate flag and stated: “I am proud to be white.” The post also read, “I bet no one passes this on because they are scared of be called a racist.”

A change.org petition, “Sara Wilkins needs to step down, resign, or be fired,” gained more than 1,500 signatures.

The Madera County Superintendent of Schools announced Wilkins’ resignation Thursday. In a statement, CAIR-CC Outreach Director Sukaina Hussain said: “We welcome the resignations of these public officials after their disturbing posts.

You will find a ‘sign-up’ opportunity on CAIR’s website. It is extremely useful to know what they are doing.

It is about silencing you and making you fearful, an important first step in their goal to destroy our cherished American way of life.

How to Defeat the Xenophobes According to Bloomberg’s New American Economy

~ Ann Corcoran ~ 2 Comments

The Hill published an opinion piece yesterday by the Yalie who runs Michael Bloomberg’s ‘New American Economy,’ Jeremy Robbins, entitled:

How to end xenophobia for once and for all

The gist of the piece is how Bloomberg goes into certain selected cities and Congressional districts and pours money into propaganda to change the minds of elected officials and business leaders about the need to import and welcome ‘new Americans.’  He has been at this for ten years already!

Michael Bloomberg is the chairman of the New American Economy. See what other globalists are working with him: http://www.newamericaneconomy.org/wp-content/uploads/2019/01/NAE_Membership_List.pdf

Now he wants to be sure to get all you xenophobes to see the light. By the way, the reason he has to use the word xenophobia instead of racism is that, as we have been chronicling for years, many black ‘new Americans’ don’t like our longtime African Americans (and vice versa).

The same goes for African Americans and Hispanics. Nor is there any love lost between Asians and African Americans.

On the Left, while the anarchists are busy tearing down America and American culture, moneybags like Bloomberg are working away as Robbins describes:

 

Jeremy Robbins

President Trump has expanded his immigration ban to affect vital U.S. industries like tech, manufacturing and hospitality through the end of 2020. The latest executive order signed on June 22 further restricts immigration, following a less drastic measure made in April. This will slow our recovery with states now reopening, but it’s no surprise.

His platform of cracking down on immigration has been unflinchingly consistent. He has blocked immigrants from predominantly Muslim countries, dismantled our refugee resettlement program, separated migrant children from their parents and attempted to end DACA.

But here’s the ugly truth that Americans forget: Blaming immigrants for bringing diseases, taking our jobs, making us unsafe and threatening American culture has been part of our politics since the country’s founding. It doesn’t matter that none of these impending immigration disasters have come to pass. Or that immigration is America’s greatest global competitive advantage. With each generation, new leaders claim that today’s immigrants are somehow different — less able to assimilate, more likely to take our jobs or commit crimes. And we believe them.

So why do we keep getting duped?

Both the social science literature and forward-looking leaders in deeply conservative parts of the country have an answer: It’s a mistake to focus just on President Trump’s most anti-immigrant rhetoric. We also need to focus on the millions of Americans — and not just the most xenophobic ones — who think the president may have a point.

As a country, we’re broadly in favor of immigration, but we’re also incredibly nervous about changes to our culture and our communities. When we’re unsure of what to believe, we look first to our local networks. Studies show that when we’re given information that contradicts what our friends and neighbors believe, we actually double down and become more strident. The more facts we throw at our opponents, the more polarized we become.

How we beat Rep. Steve King:

A prime example is the conservative Iowa district, which had been represented for 17 years by Congress’s most stridently anti-immigrant member: Steve King. To change the tenor of the debate at home, local residents took the initiative and formed a group called One Siouxland to “welcome and support every Siouxland resident” and help all “understand, appreciate and embrace our changing demographics.”

Together with New American Economy, One Siouxland wrote a strategic integration plan to establish community resource centers, a leadership development academy, small business loans and dozens of other programs and policies focused on giving underrepresented populations a seat at the table.

Most recently, One Siouxland used locally produced art to host dialogues between Trump voters and non-Trump voters about American identity. This welcoming attitude has allowed more businesses of all types to invest there, including some of the food processing plants [Meat packers changing America!—ed]now keeping our food supply chain functioning.

And now a district that was the stronghold of the anti-immigrant movement has said enough, and the business community successfully backed an opponent who recently defeated King in the Republican primary election.

Read it all. 

See how Bloomberg’s money is working to change your minds while he and the hundreds of businesses he represents are changing America by changing the people.

Go here to see if the New American Economy is doing its propaganda work where you live.

In Response to Yesterday’s Post….

~ Ann Corcoran ~ 4 Comments

Here are a few excellent comments in response to my post yesterday on Leo Hohmann’s latest piece: ‘America at the crossroads: The silent majority vs. the advancing power of the mob.‘

First from Michael:

Thanks so much for this, Ann. Leo Hohmann is my all-time hero. He’s part of a tiny, tiny, tiny—less than a thousand, I’m sure, if not a hundred—handful of people who are speaking up about the obvious: we are in the middle of a full-scale revolution, and the beginnings of a genuine Civil War. It’s 1968 all over again, only this time it’s MUCH more serious.

Our beautiful, beloved country will almost certainly die a horrible death in November, without a kind of miracle. How we can get the supposed two million evangelical Christians who don’t vote, to do so in this year’s election, I have no idea. But thank goodness for Mr. Hohmann: he’s on his white horse, at least. Too bad he has no cavalry!!

From Michelle:

Ben Carson was on Fox this morning talking about the silence from people who do not support this lawlessness and mob control. He said it is up to us to stand up for what we believe and stop hiding and hoping no one will notice us. He is correct because our elected officials are doing nothing and it is soon going to be out of control. I write to my local elected and hope that others do the same. There is strength in numbers and if we all speak out, we can win our country back. Thank you Ann for speaking up all these years about the injustice to everyday americans and taxpayers.

And then this from Blurnieghey:

You would think by now these people would learn not to apologize. Why bother? You’re going to be toast no matter what you do, so you might as well stick to your guns and show some dignity.

Perhaps the “silence” of the “majority” deserves some analysis of where the average member of this ambiguous group stands in this mess. Aside from the chumps who are swallowing whatever crap the nightly news feeds them, what else do we have? People in debt to their eyeballs and possibly broke? Living paycheck to paycheck, maybe? Afraid of losing their jobs because they are “racist”? Families to support and a perhaps a liberally inclined significant other who ain’t havin’ none of it, who holds the leash? Maybe hoping to hunker down and avoid the whole mess because they are hoping to retire soon? Drugs, poor health and generally poor physical condition, and on and on.

I’m not trying to run anybody down here, but the fact remains that, if you are compromised by any of the above, you owe it to yourself to get un-compromised. If you can’t be troubled to do that, then exactly what can you be troubled for? If it’s too much work, then it isn’t unfair to question your worth in any sort of “uprising”.

It appears these scum are using our financial security and fear of discomfort as a means of control. If this intimidates you, get un-intimidated. You can’t take all your goodies with you when you go and it looks to me like they just want to incrementally grind us down, knowing that people will continue to cling to what little they have rather than strike back.

Personally, I’d much prefer to be farting around with my hobbies and enjoying myself than confronting this mess, but it’s pretty obvious what is coming down the pipeline at this point and there simply are no half-measures. They have any number of commie playbooks to draw instruction from and they are clearly using them—what do we have?

They are organized—we aren’t. Let that sink in.

The above rant aside, my gut tells me these swine are poking the bear so they can get some blowback and achieve some degree of martyrdom before they continue the siege. Speaking up and not caving is great, but the willingness of the scum to resort to violence over trivialities makes me suspicious.

What do we do? 

The only thing I know is that we must put Donald Trump in the White House for four more years and buy ourselves more time. As imperfect as he is, there is no other choice.

I told readers that in November of last year and the post is featured continually on the right hand sidebar of both of my blogs.  Click here to read it all.

And, don’t wait for one national group/leader to emerge so he or she can tell you what to do! Find some place where you can do your part this year and the years ahead (like reader Michelle is doing, it doesn’t have to be huge).

I’ve made several suggestions in that post linked above.

But, let me say, that even if Trump is successful that will not be the end of it and we need to be ready for more trouble ahead because as reader Blurnieghey says, they are organized and we are not.

Come back for my next post to see one way they are organized and thus how Michael Bloomberg’s ‘New American Economy’ helped defeat Rep. Steve King in Iowa (as Bloomberg works to change America by changing the people).

What Does the Gruesome Murder of Dorothy Dow have to do with You? Nothing or Everything?

~ Ann Corcoran ~ 19 Comments

Leo Hohmann has been hitting the mark time after time lately and his post today is one of his best yet as far as I am concerned.

A high school football announcer expressed an opinion in a Facebook post about the murder of 83-year-old Dorothy Dow and he was fired from his job.

America at the crossroads: The silent majority vs. the advancing power of the mob

 

Take, for example, the case of Ray McKnight. He worked as an announcer for the Newnan High School football team in Newnan, Georgia, in ultra-conservative Coweta County. But he was fired over a Facebook post he made this past weekend that his employer deemed “controversial” and offensive, even hurtful, according to the Times-Herald.

What did McKnight say that was so horrible as to warrant his immediate termination?

He said that four people deserved to “hang” for beating and burning 83-year-old Dorothy “Dot” Dow in her Meriwether County home in 2016.”

 

I bet you know where this is going already, you don’t even need to see who is sitting in jail charged in the murder.

 

 

Hohmann continues….

History is littered with examples of folks hunkering down and waiting for a leader to rise up from the silent majority and protect them from the mob.

Please read it all and think about it.

Do you realize that as imperfect as Donald Trump is, because of the beating he takes daily from the mob (on the Left and yes, some on the Right), there will likely be no one person who will be able (or foolish enough) to try to protect us from the vicious mob.

Have we reached a point of no return?  Or, can we muster the strength to fight back now, before it really is too late?
