THE GLOBALIST DEMOCRAT PARTY'S AGENDA OF SURRENDER TO MEXICO "This is country belongs to Mexico" is said by the Mexican Militant. This is a common teaching that the U.S. is really AZTLAN, belonging to Mexicans, which is taught to Mexican kids in Arizona and California through a La Raza (now calling itself UNIDOus) educational program funded by American Tax Payers via President Obama and Joe Biden, when they gave LA RAZA $800,000.00 in March of 2009!
Trillions of dollars have already been funneled upward to the ruling elite over the last year, while 2.7 million have died as a result of the policies pursued by capitalist governments around the world.
Whitmer and Biden refuse to fight surging pandemic in Michigan
For the seventh week in a row, K-12 schools were the number one source of COVID-19 outbreaks in Michigan, followed once again by manufacturing and construction job sites. Yet Democratic Governor Gretchen Whitmer continues to refuse to order schools to go virtual and nonessential workplaces to close.
Michiganders caught COVID-19 at a rate of over 7,000 per day over the last week, numbers not seen in the state since last Thanksgiving, the peak of the fall/winter surge. The number of confirmed cases Tuesday hit 10,277, the highest daily number of the pandemic to date. The state continues to lead the US with 72.9 new cases for every 100,000 residents. The next highest state-wide case rate is 41.7 in New Jersey.
In virtually every part of the state, the pandemic is spreading like wildfire. Sixty-one of Michigan’s 83 counties saw more than 50 cases per 100,000 residents on April 13. The rural “thumb” area north of Detroit is especially dangerous, with the counties of Lapeer, Tuscola, and Sanilac all above 100 daily new cases per 100,000 residents, and St. Clair and Huron counties both over 150, according to the website CovidActNow.
COVID-19 hospitalizations in Michigan are now at their highest levels ever, surpassing anything seen in previous surges, and health care is now being rationed across the state to make room for more patients. The situation is so severe that even Centers for Disease Control and Prevention Director Dr. Rochelle Walensky called Monday for Governor Whitmer “to really close things down, to go back to our basics, to go back to where we were last spring, last summer, and to shut things down.”
Michigan’s new surge is fueled by the B.1.1.7 variant, which is now dominant across the US. This variant is also up to 75 percent more contagious than wild-type COVID-19, and it thrives among children. B.1.1.7 is more concentrated in Michigan than in any other state, accounting for an estimated 70 percent of new cases there.
The first case of B.1.1.7 in Michigan was detected on January 16 in Washtenaw County. This was also the lowest point in the curve of K-12 school outbreaks in the state. Having reached 56 new outbreaks per week before Thanksgiving break, this number was down to just 2 per week for the first weeks of January. The downward trend started when the state’s health department ordered high schools to close for the remainder of the semester on November 15, and fell off dramatically when all schools closed as normal for winter break.
As B.1.1.7 took hold in Michigan and schools reopened, outbreaks in schools skyrocketed to unseen heights, reaching 80 per week by April 5. This rise preceded the surge in case rates across Michigan, which shows that not only are schools vectors for transmission when community spread is already high, but that they actually serve as a catalyst for community spread.
But Whitmer continues to refuse to order even a limited lockdown of schools or workplaces. She maintains that “Michigan doesn’t have a policy problem, we have a compliance problem.” This is an effort to shift blame for the new surge onto individual “problem” workers and youth, who won’t “comply” with the Governor’s completely voluntary recommendations to wear a mask inside Michigan’s cramped schools and factories and to order takeout instead of dining out at restaurants, which she has also allowed to remain open for in-person dining.
In the spring and summer of 2020, as the pandemic first hit Michigan, Whitmer issued emergency executive orders to shut down all schools and some non-essential businesses. But on October 12, the Michigan Supreme Court ruled in Midwest Institute of Health, PLLC v. Governor that Whitmer’s legal basis for ordering schools to go completely virtual was unconstitutional.
The Democrats have presented this decision as an insurmountable barrier, foisted upon Whitmer by hostile Republicans, which completely prevents her from taking any measures to shut down schools. However, a brief examination shows that this is far from the case.
At the time, the Michigan Supreme Court was comprised of four Republican justices: Stephen Markman, Brian K. Zahra, David Viviano, and Elizabeth T. Clement; and three Democrats: Megan Cavanagh, Bridget Mary McCormack, and Richard H. Bernstein.
There were two questions in the emergency powers case: whether a 1945 law allowed the governor to issue executive orders related to a pandemic; and if a separate 1976 law the governor cited as justification was constitutional. By winning on either one of these questions, Whitmer could continue to issue lockdown orders as before.
The Governor lost 4-3 on both questions. On the second question, the ruling proceeded along party lines, with all four Republicans ruling against and all three Democrats in favor of Whitmer.
But on the first question, the votes against Whitmer's actions were from McCormack (D), Viviano (R), Bernstein (D) and Markman (R). The three justices voting for Whitmer's actions were Zahra (R), Clement (R), and Cavanagh (D).
Thus, it was the Democrats on the Michigan Supreme Court who sunk Whitmer’s emergency powers, not the Republicans. If the Democratic justices had supported Whitmer on the first question, she would have won 5-
Moreover, a month after the ruling, as daily new cases in the state surpassed 7,000 for the first time and outbreaks in schools were exploding, the director of the Michigan Department of Health and Human Services Robert Gordon issued a “Gatherings and Facemasks” order in his own name, which brought in-person instruction at high schools to an end from November 18 through the end of the year. The order states: “Gatherings at public, nonpublic, and boarding schools for the purpose of conducting in-person instruction, sports, and extracurricular activities serving pupils in grades 9 through 12 are prohibited.”
The laws that Director Gordon cited as justification for the November order have not been challenged by anyone, and the MDHHS continues to cite them as a basis for updated Gatherings and Facemasks orders. However, the newest such order explicitly states that “gatherings at public, nonpublic, and boarding schools are permitted for the purpose of conducting in-person instruction.”
President Joe Biden has now repeatedly rejected calls to send a “surge” of vaccines to Michigan to counter the rise of the pandemic in Michigan. His administration is walking a tightrope, trying to continue to force open schools across the country while ignoring the growing number of infections and deaths or listening to the dire warnings of experts. But the catastrophe in Michigan shows what the rest of the country could soon face if immediate action is not taken.
The subject of COVID-19 in Michigan’s schools is also being blacked out and downplayed by the mainstream media. In particular, the New York Times is covering up the fact that Michigan’s schools are its top source of COVID-19 transmission.
In its two major articles on the pandemic in Michigan published Monday (“Surging Virus Has Michigan’s Democratic Governor at Loggerheads With Biden,” and “The C.D.C. director says Michigan needs to shut down, not get extra vaccine, to slow its virus outbreak”) the Times claims that Michigan’s outbreak is “driven by a highly infectious virus variant, loosened restrictions, travel, youth sporting events and uneven compliance with the remaining rules.” The quoted passage appears in both articles, neither of which mention the hundreds of outbreaks at Michigan schools or workplaces since the present surge began in last February.
Likewise, the Times’ page “Tracking Coronavirus in Michigan: Latest Map and Case Count” includes a section called “Outbreak clusters,” which completely omits K-12 schools and almost all workplaces. They falsely present colleges, prisons, nursing homes, and two meat-packing plants as the main sources of outbreaks. The word “school” does not appear on the page.
The situation in Michigan is a warning to the world: the ruling class, whether represented by Democrats like Whitmer and Biden or Republicans like Trump, is set on reopening schools and workplaces, even if it means knowingly infecting thousands of schoolchildren, teachers and other workers with a deadly virus. Trillions of dollars have already been funneled upward to the ruling elite over the last year, while 2.7 million have died as a result of the policies pursued by capitalist governments around the world.
The end result of this economic warfare is the usurpation of power from American citizens to foreign nationals. First, this is hidden but as their power grows it moves into the open. This can be seen in Congresswoman Ocasio-Cortez asserting that immigration laws should not apply to Latinos as this land is rightfully theirs, as well as Senator Kamala Harris asserting that foreign nationals have the right to make laws with respect to U.S. citizens.
The Middle Class’s Slow Ascent and Swift Decline
During the mid-14th Century, the Black Plague ravaged Europe, killing up to half the population by some estimates. Urban centers were hardest hit, but the plague didn’t discriminate -- rich and poor, nobles and peasants all suffered.
Calamities of that magnitude inevitably lead to big changes. But, like the trade routes opened by Genghis Khan, the long-term societal consequences of the Black Death were not all necessarily bad.
Because the continent held fewer people after the plague’s devastation, labor was in short supply. A limited labor supply meant that workers had greater bargaining power and could command higher wages. Frustrated rulers enacted laws capping worker pay, but those laws were widely ignored. Local landowners needed work done and were willing to pay more to entice laborers away from other employers.
With higher wages enabling savings, frugal European peasants gradually turned into a budding middle class. Long-sighted parents invested in educating their children, which enhanced the next generation’s earning potential. Land ownership, previously limited to the Church and nobility, became an achievable goal for common people.
An economically empowered middle class could assert itself politically, employing financial strength as negotiating leverage. Over time, non-nobles secured recognized rights and, eventually, a say in government. Autocracies became constitutional monarchies that became republics.
As horrific as the Black Death was, most people agree that reduced social, political, and economic inequality is good.
But what if you disagreed?
What if you felt secure enough in your position within the ruling class to view greater socio-political equality as a bad thing? If you were an aspiring oligarch, for instance, what lessons might you extract from the long-term consequences of the Black Plague?
For starters, you might wonder if the process works in reverse. If a limited labor supply reduces inequality by allowing workers greater bargaining power, then it would make sense that policies that leave laborers and tradesmen with less bargaining power would increase economic and political inequality. That is, if you sit atop the societal heap and want to be even further distanced from the hoi polloi, you might reduce the working class’s leverage by flooding the labor market with more workers.
Interestingly enough, this isn’t too far off from what we see with modern American immigration policy. The ruling-class “Establishment” has, over the last half-century, consistently pushed for ever-increasing immigration as a means of expanding the labor supply. Corporate moneymen want lower payrolls, and the political class wants a slice of that corporate money. Even the party that once represented labor (or at least pretended to) backs mass migration for the steady stream of malleable future voters.
While this has been occurring, ordinary citizens have remained more skeptical of large-scale immigration. Because voters at least theoretically have a say in governance, you can’t just tell the citizenry that mass immigration is needed because the ruling class wants to enhance its wealth and political power.
So, instead of openly stating their intentions, the establishment makes it a question of morality, rather than economics or civics. We’re a “nation of immigrants” with an ethical duty to welcome all comers -- just look at the poem on the Statute of Liberty, after all. And, besides, if you have any reservations about mass immigration, you must be racist and xenophobic.
This arrangement has been very fruitful for the ruling class, causing a dramatic increase in economic inequality since the 1965 overhaul of the U.S. immigration system. The middle class’s share of total national income has dropped by one-third, while its share of total wealth went from 32 to 17 percent -- a little over half the prior level. And those figures are pre-COVID -- the current gaps have almost certainly widened.
At the same time, population growth and a ballooning dollar supply have led to inflated real estate prices. The average American home now costs a full $100,000 more than if home prices had simply kept up with inflation over the past 50 years. Working-class wages haven’t kept pace, and more and more young adults are priced out of the market, as wealth inequality increases from one generation to the next. High home prices even discourage some young people from starting families at all.
When public policy favored domestic workers, U.S. companies would train new employees to do the jobs the businesses needed. Today, the would-be aristocrats running Walt Disney’s company demand soon-to-be unemployed American workers train their lower-paid foreign replacements.
The economic and political decline of the American middle class has been an unheralded catastrophe. COVID-19 hastened the process, but no plague or epidemic bears the blame. The true culprit is a perfidious establishment who no longer feel any sense of responsibility or loyalty toward their countrymen -- and public policies designed to further empower the already powerful.
Biden Releases 6.4K ‘Remain in Mexico’ Migrants into U.S. with Route to Secure Work Permits
President Joe Biden’s administration has released more than 6,400 migrants enrolled in the now-defunct “Remain in Mexico” program into the United States interior, offering them work permits to take American jobs, Breitbart News has learned.
After taking office in January, Biden ended the Remain in Mexico program, which had proven remarkably effective in eliminating the Catch and Release policy whereby border crossers are apprehended and subsequently released into the U.S. interior while awaiting their asylum hearings.
As of February, of the more than 71,000 asylum cases under Remain in Mexico, less than one percent of foreign nationals were found to have a legitimate asylum claim.
Biden announced in February that his Department of Homeland Security (DHS), with the help of the United Nations, would start releasing about 25,600 migrants enrolled in the program into the U.S. interior. Breitbart News exclusively reported that the migrants are being released in Brownsville and El Paso, Texas, as well as San Diego, California.
Internal data reviewed by Breitbart News reveals that as of April 10, the Biden administration had released more than 6,400 Remain in Mexico migrants into the U.S. interior. The release process, which includes parole, is allowing migrants to secure one-year work permits to take American jobs while they await their hearings.
The data indicates that the Biden administration has been releasing about 125 Remain in Mexico migrants every day into the U.S. interior who can eventually obtain work permits. The majority of those released are from Cuba, Guatemala, Honduras, and El Salvador.
Breitbart News also exclusively reported the rate at which the Biden administration is releasing border crossers into the U.S. interior. Since January 23, DHS has released more than 42,000 border crossers into the U.S. interior — a population four times the size of Jackson Hole, Wyoming.
A memo from Republican Study Committee (RSC) Chairman Jim Banks notes that the Biden administration’s packing foreign nationals into the U.S. labor market via Catch and Release, as well as through “sanctuary country” orders that have gutted interior immigration enforcement, is helping to serve “the interests of … ultra-wealthy multinational corporations.”
New analysis projects that 1.2 million illegal aliens will arrive at the southern border by the end of the year — an illegal immigration surge not seen since the Great Recession. Tens of thousands will likely be released by the Biden administration into the U.S. interior.

Texas and Missouri Sue Biden Administration for Revoking Trump’s ‘Remain in Mexico’ Policy
Texas and Missouri sued President Joe Biden’s administration Tuesday for rescinding the Migrant Protection Protocols (MPP), saying the program which forced migrants to wait in Mexico while their hearings progressed needs to be reinstated.
The Trump administration created that policy – also called the “Remain in Mexico” policy – in 2019 to prevent unmanageable numbers of foreigners claiming asylum from crossing the U.S. border. Most asylum claims are denied, and many foreigners claim it to enter the country, then disappear into the general population while their asylum claims are still pending in court.
In a press release, Texas Attorney General Ken Paxton said he and Missouri Attorney General Eric Schmitt filed the lawsuit in an effort to reinstate the program and “curb the criminal and humanitarian crisis at the border.”
He continued:
The MPP restricts illegal aliens’ ability to remain in the United States during immigration proceedings, which greatly reduces the burden shouldered by state and federal agencies tasked with defending our border.
President Biden could immediately remedy the influx of crime pouring across our border by reinstating the Migrant Protection Protocols. Dangerous criminals are taking advantage of the lapse in law enforcement and it’s resulting in human trafficking, smuggling, a plethora of violent crimes, and a massive, unprecedented burden on state and federal programs for which taxpayers must foot the bill. We cannot allow this lawlessness to destroy our communities any longer. President Biden must act.
The lawsuit explained how the MPP “changed the incentives for economic migrants with weak asylum claims, and therefore reduced the flow of aliens—including aliens who are victims of human trafficking—to the southern border.”
The lawsuit alleges that Biden’s change in policy violates the federal Administrative Procedure Act (APA), both because it was “arbitrary and capricious” and also because it violates federal immigration law. The lawsuit also claims that the Biden administration violated a legally binding agreement to consult with the states on this issue, and finally that Biden has violated his duty under the Take Care Clause of the U.S. Constitution.
The Biden administration has released almost 42,000 border crossers into the United States since he took office in January, according to Breitbart News.
“Almost immediately after taking office, Biden restarted the Catch and Release process whereby border crossers are apprehended and released into the nation’s interior by ending the Remain in Mexico program and canceling U.S. cooperative asylum agreements with Central America,” the report said.
In a tweet Tuesday, the Texas attorney general’s office said as crimes such as trafficking increase on the border, reinstating the MPP is necessary:
As horrific crimes like trafficking spike at our border, reinstating the Migrant Protection Protocols is necessary. The Biden Admin's policy failures are endangering Americans and over-burdening law enforcement.
Once again, I'm taking action.https://t.co/5TZx6W9HMU
— Texas Attorney General (@TXAG) April 13, 2021
In regard to Missouri, the lawsuit said, “With its intersection of major interstate highway routes, Missouri is a major destination and hub for human trafficking.”
“By dismantling the MPP, the Administration has directly caused a massive uptick in illegal immigration through Central America, Mexico, and to the U.S. Southern border,” the document read.
The case is Texas v. Biden No. 2:21-cv-67 in the U.S. District Court for the Northern District of Texas.
