THE DOCTRINE OF THE N.A.F.T.A. GLOBALIST DEMOCRATS IS TO SERVE THE BILLIONAIRE CLASS WITH ENDLESS WAVES OF INVADING 'CHEAP' LABOR SUBSIDIZED WITH WELFARE FUNDED BY TAXES ON MIDDLE AMERICA.
In many speeches, Mayorkas says he is building a mass migration system to deliver workers to wealthy employers and investors and “equity” to poor foreigners. The nation’s border laws are subordinate to elites’ opinion about “the values of our country,” Mayorkas claims.

BLACK ON BLACK MURDER IN DEMOCRAT PARTY-CONTROLLED SANCTUARY CITIES
Convicted Killer Arrested for Rape After Being Released from Prison
A convicted murderer has been arrested for rape after being released from prison to a halfway house in Hartford, Connecticut.
Anthony Smith, 42-years-old, was arrested this week after he had been released to live in a halfway house following a 25-year prison sentence for felony murder, according to the Hartford Courant.
Smith, police said, was living in the halfway house and signing out every day to go to work at a warehouse. Smith, police allege, was not going to work.
On one occasion, Smith traveled to Stafford, Connecticut, to visit a woman he had previously been in a relationship with. The woman claims Smith raped her and said he was a key player in the region’s drug trade.
Smith was arrested for the alleged rape and for violating the terms of his parole. While being strip searched to re-enter prison, police said Smith had stuffed 58 bags of crack cocaine in his bottom. Smith allegedly admitted to police that he had returned to selling drugs while living in the halfway house.
Smith has been charged with first-degree sexual assault, first-degree unlawful restraint, first-degree escape, smuggling drugs into prison, and possession of narcotics. The inmate is being held on a $750,000 bail.

Far-left “anti-fascist” and Black Lives Matters (BLM) activists stomped and danced on the United States flag Saturday as part of a Fourth of July protest in front of the White House in Washington, D.C.
The activists were caught on camera by Breitbart News stomping and dancing the Cha-Cha Slide on the flag. A number of those in attendance appeared to be affiliated with Refuse Fascism, an Antifa group founded in 2017 to combat President Donald Trump’s administration. Others in the crowd were also seen wearing BLM t-shirts and identified themselves as supporters of the cause.
“This flag has hurt so many of us, so come step on this flag,” one of the activists is heard, encouraging protesters to join in denigrating the flag, according to video captured by Breitbart News. “Get [this flag] dirty, that what this flag is, it’s dirty, it represents filth, greed, crime.”
The protest was one of several held across the country by Refuse Fascism, BLM, and other far-left groups. Officially, the activists claim the demonstrations are meant to show opposition to the death of George Floyd and support for tearing down statues and monuments, which they claim are a symbol of America’s racist and fascist history.
This is not the first time either Antifa or BLM activists have engaged in such conduct in front of the White House in recent months. In May, protesters upset over Floyd’s death set several U.S. flags ablaze, while alternatively chanting “hands up, don’t shoot” and obscenities at law enforcement.
As a result of that incident and others like it across the country, Trump floated the idea of sending individuals caught burning the U.S. flag to “jail for a year” at a campaign rally in Tulsa, Oklahoma last month.
The
single most important domestic issue of our time is not the rising number of
new people testing positive for COVID-19. Deaths have hit all-time lows.
The single most important domestic issue of our time is not
even the continued economic hardship of a nation that was artificially shut
down and sent spiraling into a faux recession. Millions of jobs have been added
over the past 60 days and the skyrocketing unemployment has turned around to
nearly where it was percent wise in most of the Obama early years (11.1 vs
9.9.)
Nope!
The single most important issue, affecting some of the
largest swaths of populations in America, is the scandal the media ignores even
as it explodes in our faces.
In only six weeks, city after city operated by entrenched
Democrats have seen a massive expansion in lawlessness, violence, and murder.
Stunningly, many news outlets seem gobsmacked and mystified at how or why such
an explosion of lawlessness has occurred.
For the sake of brevity, let’s sample six of the nation’s
largest cities, including all of the top three.
New
York:
The Democratic mayor has long been understood as anti-police.
His wife recently imagined the city as “Nirvana” if the NYPD were eliminated
altogether.
Thus far in 2020, homicides are up 21 percent. Shootings
are up by 46 percent. The Democratic mayor’s agenda included emptying the
prison known as Rikers Island, bail reform letting perps walk before the
paperwork is completed, and the effort to #DefundPolice that took 600
anti-crime units out of commission.
Los Angeles:
June saw disturbing trends. An increase in the month’s first week by 250
percent of homicides, and a 56 percent increase in shootings. Following the
death of George Floyd in May the LAPD received a $150 million cut.
Chicago:
Year-to-date shootings have eclipsed
1,508 for 2020, putting them 350 ahead of 2019. To date homicides sit at 254,
placing them ahead of 2019. Important to note that the Cook County board voted
in favor of defunding police. Eleven city alderman raced to the fore to demand that not a single penny of $333
million in federal dollars not go to police, and various proposals are being
considered to cut current funding by more than $30 million in current spending.
Washington,
D.C.
Year-to-date homicide numbers are 13
percent higher than this time a year ago. Nevertheless, the District PD is slated to be defunded by more than $15
million.
Philadelphia:
Shootings are up 67 percent. Victims of armed
violence are up 29 percent. Homicides are up 25 percent. So of course it makes
sense to defund the Philadelphia PD by $19
million.
Baltimore:
As consistently one of the most dangerous cities in America
with a five-year streak of more than 300 murders, last year Baltimore set a new record at 348 homicides. Yet in 2020
they outpace last year’s record and will see defunding to the effect of $22 million.
As I said there are many more that I could highlight for you.
So why did all of these cities take such violent turns? Is it
because their leadership capitulated to the anger of the mobs as opposed to
thinking clearly and strategically about an effective response?
Or do these Democrat-run towns literally operate with denial
in good and evil?
How else can you explain that in the city of Minneapolis
(where a nation watched in horror and subsequently responded to the murder of
an innocent man) that within 30 days they would record 1,600
shots fired? But then respond by voting to dismantle its police operations all
together?
The single most important threat to our nation at this moment
are Democrats who are voting in favor of eliminating law enforcement and who
are by extension responsible for the greater and greater increase in the loss
of life.
They are allowing Marxists and Anarchists to create complete
chaos and disorder. They also seem utterly unconcerned about any lives
mattering, black or white.
They appear to be holding on to an idea that they are not
impacted by the scum and villainy at play under their jurisdiction.
They even perhaps believe that this is all worth it, if it
will allow them to have electoral success in the fall.
If so, they need to brace themselves for three basic truths.
It’s time they learn the truth
It’s time they be held accountable.
And...It’s time to stop them!
The True Plight of Black Americans
Walter E. Williams
While it might not be popular to say in the wake of the
recent social disorder, the true plight of black people has little or nothing
to do with the police or what has been called "systemic racism."
Instead, we need to look at the responsibilities of those running our big
cities.
Some of the most dangerous big cities are: St. Louis,
Detroit, Baltimore, Oakland, Chicago, Memphis, Atlanta, Birmingham, Newark,
Buffalo and Philadelphia. The most common characteristic of these cities is
that for decades, all of them have been run by liberal Democrats. Some cities
-- such as Detroit, Buffalo, Newark and Philadelphia -- haven't elected a
Republican mayor for more than a half-century. On top of this, in many of these
cities, blacks are mayors, often they dominate city councils, and they are
chiefs of police and superintendents of schools.
In 1965, there were no blacks in the U.S. Senate, nor were
there any black governors. And only six members of the House of Representatives
were black. As of 2019, there is far greater representation in some areas -- 52
House members are black. Nine black Americans have served in the Senate,
including Edward W. Brooke of Massachusetts, Carol Moseley Braun and Barack
Obama of Illinois, Tim Scott of South Carolina, Cory Booker of New Jersey, and
Kamala Harris of California. In recent times, there have been three black state
governors. The bottom line is that today's black Americans have significant
political power at all levels of government. Yet, what has that meant for a
large segment of the black population?
Democratic-controlled cities have the
poorest-quality public education despite their large, and growing, school
budgets.Consider Baltimore,
Maryland. In 2016, in 13 of Baltimore's 39 high schools, not a single student
scored proficient on the state's math exam. In six other high schools, only 1%
tested proficient in math. Only 15% of Baltimore students passed the state's
English test. That same year in Philadelphia only 19% of eighth-graders scored
proficient in math, and 16% were proficient in reading. In Detroit, only 4% of
its eighth-graders scored proficient in math, and 7% were proficient in
reading. It's the same story of academic disaster in other cities run by
Democrats.
Violent crime and poor education is not the only problem for
Democratic-controlled cities. Because of high crime, poor schools and a less
pleasant environment, cities are losing their economic base and their most
productive people in droves. When World War II ended, the population of
Washington, D.C., was about 800,000; today, it's about 700,000. In 1950,
Baltimore's population was almost 950,000; today, it's around 590,000.
Detroit's 1950 population was close to 1.85 million; today, it's down to
673,000. The population of Camden, New Jersey, in 1950 was nearly 125,000;
today it has fallen to 74,000. St. Louis' 1950 population was more than
856,000; today, it's less than 294,000. A similar story of population decline
can be found in most of our formerly large and prosperous cities. In some
cities, the population decline since 1950 is well over 50%, and that includes
Detroit, St. Louis, Cleveland and Pittsburgh.
Academic liberals, civil rights advocates and others blamed
the exodus on racism -- "white flight" to the suburbs to avoid
blacks. But blacks have been fleeing some cities at higher rates than whites.
The five cities whose suburbs have the fastest-growing black populations are
Miami, Dallas, Washington, Houston and Atlanta. It turns out that blacks, like
whites, want better and safer schools for their kids and don't like to be
mugged or have their property vandalized. And like white people, if they have
the means, black people cannot wait to leave troubled cities.
White liberals and black politicians focus most of their
attention on what the police do, but how relevant is that to the overall
tragedy? According to Statista, this year, 172 whites and 88 blacks have died
at the hands of police. To put police shootings in a bit of perspective, in
Chicago alone in 2020 there have been 1,260 shootings and 256 homicides with
blacks being the primary victims. That comes to one shooting victim every three
hours and one homicide victim every 15 hours. Three people in Chicago have been
killed by police. If one is truly concerned about black deaths, shootings by
police should figure way down on one's list -- which is not to excuse bad
behavior by some police officers.

As cities burn and
statues come down, many want you to believe that U.S. is doomed or that the
leftist mobs will tear down every sign of traditional values.
Yes, some monuments will
be vandalized and buildings burned down.
But eventually, the
storyline will change.
What we are really
watching is the collapse of "blue districts" and cities.
For years, we've heard
that "racism" or poverty excuses. Yet, the story is a lot
different. The issue is not really racism but dysfunctional societies run
by Democrats, as Angela
Kelley wrote:
Poverty is not, as the
Left would have us believe, owing to a lack of social safety-net funding.
“According to the U.S Department of Energy’s Residential Energy Consumption
Survey... Over 99 percent [of those classified below the poverty level] have
a refrigerator, television, and stove or oven. Eighty-one percent have a
microwave; 75 percent have air conditioning; 67 percent have a second TV; 64
percent have a clothes washer; 38 percent have a personal computer.” In the
United States, most poor people (over 80 percent) have cell phones. People are
not living in abject poverty as they do in third world countries, where people
are starved for the basic necessities of food, clothing, clean water, and
housing.
And let’s not ignore
the problem of absentee fathers. Psychology Today notes that
children without fathers in their home are susceptible to “diminished
self-concept and compromised physical and emotional security, behavioral
problems, truancy and poor academic performance, delinquency and youth crime,
including violent crime, promiscuity, and teen pregnancy, drug and alcohol
abuse, homelessness, exploitation and abuse, physical health problems, mental
health disorders, life chances, future relationships, [and] mortality.”
In Illinois, 23 percent of
one-parent households are headed by Caucasians. By comparison, 39
percent of Hispanic/Latino households and a whopping 73 percent of African
American households are single-parent homes. The numbers are fairly
consistent in states with the largest cities. In New York, 64 percent of
African-Americans come from single-parent households; in Minnesota, it’s 50
percent; in Pennsylvania, it’s 71 percent; in California, it’s 62 percent, and
in Washington, D.C., it is a disturbing 78 percent.
The largest cities in
these states have been run by Democrats for years.
Yes, they have.
The bad news is that
there will be more accusations of racism and riots. The good news is that
we are watching the end of these cities and that's good for African Americans
hoping for a better life.
The
21st century economic plantations and combat zones.
June 19, 2020
Lt.
Colonel Allen West
The
old folks down south had a saying when I was growing up that went something
like this: “That fella is just whistling past the graveyard.”
As
with many of those wise sayings and metaphors, such as “an empty wagon makes
the most noise,” you never learn the true meaning until later in life.
An
empty wagon refers to someone who does not have anything in their head,
therefore, they are the ones who make the most noise to cover their incompetence.
Whistling past the graveyard referred to a person who fails to see the real
issues they are facing.
And
so here we are today in America, and both sayings have relevance, the former
more so than the latter. Everyone is screaming, shouting, rioting, looting, and
committing acts of violence in the name of combatting “systemic racism.” Truly,
there are many folks, empty wagons, making a lot of noise, while so many others
are whistling past the graveyard, not grasping the real issue in America.
The
bottom line is simple: The Great Society – the grand endeavor of the
progressive, racist President Lyndon Baines Johnson, has failed. Fifty-five
years later, we are witnessing the -- shall I say it --“chickens coming home to
roost.”
The
Great Society, also known as the infamous War on Poverty was launched as every
other government top-down solution is, with great promise and “noble”
intention. It was an updated version of Roosevelt’s “chicken in every pot”
solution.
What
Johnson and his ilk believed was that they could manipulate the outcomes in the
lives of individuals and create equality. They embraced the notion that the
government could “level the playing field,” and with a plethora of government
subsistence programs, all would be well.
In
reflection, we should all agree, and stop whistling past the graveyard, that
this was a program intended to do one thing -- create economic enslavement,
dependency.
The
Great Society blunder has resulted in the modern-day 21st century economic
plantation in which American inner-cities have absolutely cratered.
It
does not take a PhD level study to grasp this. Consider my story, a young black
kid born in a “Blacks Only” hospital in Atlanta, Georgia on February 7, 1961. I
grew up in the historic Old Fourth Ward community, the same one that produced
Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. and the cradle of the American civil rights
movement, ya know, Sweet Auburn Avenue.
I
learned to swim, box, and play basketball at the historic Butler Street YMCA. I
went to Our Lady of Lourdes Catholic School, which was across the street from
Ebenezer Baptist Church. And I walked to and from school by myself.
When
I was born, the traditional two-parent household in the black community was
nearly 77%. There were thriving Black-owned businesses all throughout our
community, including Citizens Trust Bank, black owned. We kids played in the
street, and on the weekend, we gathered in the Sears Roebuck parking lot to
play baseball -- no sliding.
My
older brother returned from Vietnam where he had been wounded as a Marine
Infantryman at Khe Sahn. He wanted to be an Atlanta Police officer.
I
could go on, but I think you are starting to get my point. Compare my
inner-city experience to what is happening today.
Today,
only 24% of black kids have mom and dad in the home. Matter of fact, Black
Lives Matter has deemed the traditional nuclear family an extension of white
supremacy. My school, well, it no longer exists, it is just a community center.
Black-owned businesses are not as visible.
We
can have all the conversations about racism you want, but we will just keep
whistling past the graveyard. Until we recognize the devastation of Johnson’s
irrational foray into massive government welfare has had upon our urban
population centers, the problem will not be rectified. We can allow those empty
wagons, like Al Sharpton, to be the loudest voices, or we can resolve ourselves
to critically right the real wrongs that have been cast upon the American Black
community.
The
real issue is the “soft bigotry of low expectations.” That has resulted in the
decimation and utter despondency we witness in American inner cities,
controlled by Democrats over the past six decades. Their policies have created
this incessant nightmare that is being unfolded before our eyes.
Yes,
there are bad cops, as there are bad elements, individuals in any profession.
However, the cancer that we are dealing with, not the symptom, is the breakdown
of the family, destruction of educational opportunity, and thwarting of
economic opportunity. But, no one wishes to address those issues, preferring to
just continue to whistle past the graveyard.
And
why?
The
progressive socialist left does not want the issues created by The Great
Society to be fixed. They do not want to see strong, two-parent families,
educational freedom, and economic empowerment. No, on this new plantation, the
left needs victims, and victims provide them with electoral patronage. The real
discussion about racism should be about the policies that have turned American
inner cities into combat zones, literally.
Sadly,
with the advent of reality TV and other mindless programming, we are becoming a
nation of lemmings and useful idiots, not critical thinkers. We prefer to
succumb to the irrational emotionalism of which we are bombarded by the lords
of propaganda. We used to have a responsible press.
The
old folks down South were impeccably wise, and we should pay more attention to
their lessons. Then again, we have devolved to a point where we do not respect
our elders and heed their counsel.
The
Great Society is a failure. We must acknowledge that fact, or just keep
whistling past the graveyard.
