Unaccompanied children continue crossing the Mexican border into Texas as Health and Human Services struggles to accommodate the increased numbers by opening new Emergency Intake Sites. Breitbart Texas observed nearly 300 migrants illegally crossing the Rio Grande in Roma, Texas, on Wednesday night. The groups of migrants consisted of family units and dozens of unaccompanied children looking to surrender to the few awaiting Border Patrol agents near the edge of town.

Cartel-connected human smugglers faced no resistance from law enforcement during their crossing as Border Patrol agents struggled to keep up with the ever-increasing rate of crossings in the area. In an exclusive video, Breitbart Texas interviewed two unaccompanied children shortly after they crossed the border. The unaccompanied children traveled alone and said they did not know their mother’s whereabouts. They also claimed they did not know their father.

The teenage brother and sister, ages 13 and 15, claim to be traveling to San Francisco, California, to meet up with an uncle and a grandfather. The scene repeated itself throughout the night as children crossed the river alone or with family members. The children ranged in age from three months old to 17 years.

According to the latest statistics released by Health and Human Services, more than 22,000 unaccompanied children are currently in custody. They are being held at temporary Emergency Intake Sites, permanent shelters, or Border Patrol Stations. HHS estimates the daily cost to house the children is in excess of $6 million per day.

In March, Rio Grande Valley Sector Border Patrol agents apprehended nearly 62,000 migrants (2,000 per day), according to the most recent reports from CBP. Those included 35,250 family units, 9,726 unaccompanied minors, and 16,992 single adults.

Border Patrol agents in the vicinity spoke of being overwhelmed by the volume of migrant crossings in such a short timeframe. Many of the migrants appeared nervous and tired from the journey to the United States. According to a few of the agents, who spoke on a condition of anonymity, this is almost a nightly occurrence.

The Biden administration is planning to continue to release hundreds of migrant families a day into the United States in coming months.

The Washington Examiner obtained a document from the Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) that reveals the plan:

The 400 figure is eight times greater than the 50 families that Border Patrol and Immigration and Customs Enforcement were releasing from its facilities each day early on in 2021. As of mid-March, Border Patrol agents were seeing 500 people arrive as part of a family group per day. Only the head of family is enrolled in ICE’s programs that track people after they are released or paroled into the country, so the total number of migrants released is at least two times higher than the 400 figure because each family has at least two people.

In the final months of 2020, the number of people who were intercepted at the border hovered around 75,000 per month. By February, the first full month that President Joe Biden was in office, that monthly number had grown to more than 100,000. In March, the number of families, adults, and single children showing up at the border spiked to 172,000.

Numbers rose as migrants anticipated friendlier asylum policies under the Biden administration. After taking office, Biden ordered the Border Patrol no longer to turn away single children immediately who cross the border alone. At the same time, the Mexican state of Tamaulipas blocked the U.S. from returning families as the U.S. had been doing since March 2020 in an effort to avoid detaining people during the pandemic. The majority of families and all non-Mexican children are not being removed from the country, but most single adults continue to be removed.

“The number of individuals enrolled in the ICE Alternatives to Detention program has increased from 50 per day to 200 per day in March 2021,” an ICE document states. “Within 90 days, the enrollment is projected to double to 400 per day. It is because of this unusual and compelling urgency that the Government requires the [emergency family reception sites] to meet the critical mission requirements of housing, feeding, transporting, and providing medical attention to these thousands of asylum-seeking families along the southwest border.”

“DHS is seeing an increase in irregular migrant flows to the southwest border of the United States, including greater numbers of family units and unaccompanied children,” the document states. “The projected encounters for fiscal year (FY) 2021 are expected to be the highest number observed in over 20 years.”

The report noted that U.S. Department of Health and Human Services (HHS) signed a $530 million no-bid contract for Texas-based nonprofit Family Endeavors to house Unaccompanied Alien Children (UAC) and ICE gave another non-profit $87 million to house families in hotels before they are transferred from law enforcement custody to HHS.

Bush: Republicans Need to Be ‘More Respectful About the Immigrant’

2:39

Former President George W. Bush said Sunday during an interview with “CBS Evening News” anchor Norah O’Donnell that lawmakers need to be more respectful to immigrants.

In the interview that aired on “CBS Sunday Morning,” O’Donnell asked, “Do you want to be involved in the immigration discussion?”

Bush said, “Yeah, I do, in a way, in a way. I don’t want to be prescriptive. I don’t want to, you know, tell Congress how to do this or that. I do want to say to Congress, ‘Please put aside all the harsh rhetoric about immigration. Please put aside trying to score political points on either side.’ I hope I can help set a tone that is more respectful about the immigrant, which may lead to reform of the system.”

On May 15, 2006, President Bush gave an Oval Office address on immigration, in which he said, “We are a nation of laws, and we must enforce our laws. We are also a nation of immigrants, and we must uphold that tradition, which has strengthened our country in so many ways. These are not contradictory goals – America can be a lawful society and a welcoming society at the same time.”

O’Donnell said, “It’s been 15 years.”

Bush said, “I know it.”

O’Donnell said, “Still nothing’s been done.”

Bush said, “No, a lot of executive orders, but all that means is that Congress isn’t doing its job.”

O’Donnell said, “Is it one of the biggest disappointments of your presidency, not being – ”

Bush said, “Yes, it really is. I campaigned on immigration reform. I made it abundantly clear to voters this is something I intended to do.”

He added, “The problem with the immigration debate is that one can create a lot of fear: They’re comin’ after you. But it’s a nation that is willing to accept the refugee or the harmed or the frightened, that to me is a great nation. And we are a great nation, and we are a great nation.”

O’Donnell said, “The former president supports a pathway to citizenship for undocumented immigrants if they pass a background check and pay back taxes. And if that were the proposal by President Biden. would you lobby your own party to support that?”

Bush said, “I am right now. Whether my own party listens to me or not’s another question.”

He added, “But it’s a part of hopefully creating a better understanding about the role of immigrants in our society. Mine is just a small voice in what I hope is a chorus of people saying, ‘Let’s see if we can’t solve the problem.'”

House of Bush, House of Saud: The Secret Relationship between the World's Two Most Powerful Dynasties  Audible Audiobook – Abridged

 

How did the Bushes, America's most powerful political family, become gradually seduced by and entangled with their Saudi counterparts?

Why did the Bush administration approve the secret airlift of 140 Saudis, including two dozen relatives of Osama bin Laden, just after September 11? Did one of the Saudi royals on the planes have any advance knowledge of the attacks?

What specifically chosen words did George W. Bush say on national television during the 2000 election campaign to trigger Muslim support? How did Saudi-funded Islamic groups propel Bush to victory in Florida, thus winning him the presidency?

The answers to these questions lie in a largely hidden relationship between the House of Bush and the House of Saud that began in the mid-1970s. An amazing weave of money, power, and influence, it takes place all over the globe and involves war, covert operations, and huge deals in oil and defense industries. But, most horrifyingly of all, the secret liasion between these two great families helped trigger the Age of Terror and give rise to the tragedy of 9-11.

This book will test you. When you wonder aloud why Congress doesn’t get anything done, foreign wars continue without reason and deficits are so high, most are unable to see the cause. Unger doesn’t explain it all but he explains the relationship between money and power better than any book I’ve read to date.

The storyline of the book takes you through how the rich Saudi ruling class and really a group of Texan oilmen bonded over business. When you read about the genesis of the relationship in the 70s during the first part of the book, it looked merely like the cozy insider-only type of stuff that is common in the fabric of corporate America and most human relationships.

But the nuance Unger uncovers with his hawk-like ability to pull minutiae from rivers of source material outlines a darker agenda. His fact finding mission lays bare a Saudi elite trying to nudge the levers of power in Washington. And with this insight, Unger explains the nearly invisible pattern in which money buys powers in America. Unger’s work uncovers so many conspicuous connections amongst so many smart, ambitious men that coincidence is ruled out as the cause. Complicity makes the case here as well as any outsider like Unger can.

But the circumstantial nature of this book cannot be completely swept away. Unger has grokked the nefarious nature of this relationship but is missing the proverbial smoking gun. There is no ipso facto ‘A funded B which lead to C relationship’ outlined in the book. The closest we get to this as a reader is when the Bin Laden family and other Saudi royals are ferried out of the country while the FAA has all airspace on lockdown, a fascinating story that makes the TSA’s security theatre we endure at every airport comically irksome.

Recommending this book is easy, but to whom I would make that recommendation is difficult. If you sometimes watch/read the news with an open mind and wonder, “How did we get to this place?”, then I’d put this book on your list. If you’re knowledge of the middle east and current events is low, try paying attention to that news first, watch for the patterns and then read this to learn the connections. Most importantly though, any citizen trying to understand the ways in which money buys power in the modern nation-state needs to read this book.

Josh Hawley: Abolish the World Trade Organization in Wake of Coronavirus

JOHN BINDER

5 May 2020414

Senator Josh Hawley (R-MO) says the World Trade Organization (WTO) should be abolished in the wake of the Chinese coronavirus.

In an op-ed for the New York Times, Hawley credits the WTO with helping to empower “China’s rise” while weakening American workers:

 

BLOG: BUSH'S VISION OF 'NEW WORLD ORDER' HAD NOTHING TO DO WITH ANYTHING BUT HIS CARLYLE GROUP/HALLIBURTON WAR MACHINE AND SAUDIS BIG OIL WHICH HIS FAMILY STARTED TWO WARS AGAINST THE IRAQIS TO ADVANCE.

But in the early 1990s, with America’s principal adversary gone, Western policymakers were in a messianic frame of mind. President George H.W. Bush promised a “new world order” of “open borders, open trade … and open minds,” a new international system based on liberal values to bring peace to the world. He and other internationalists wanted a new economic system to match. [Emphasis added]

Take the World Trade Organization. Its mandate was to promote free trade, but the organization instead allowed some nations to maintain trade barriers and protectionist workarounds, like China, while preventing others from defending themselves, like the United States. Foreign agriculture won concession after concession, while American farmers struggled to get fair access to markets.Meanwhile, the W.T.O. required American workers to compete against Chinese forced labor but did next to nothing to stop Chinese theft of American intellectual property and products. [Emphasis addd]

Under the W.T.O.’s auspices, capital and goods moved across borders easier than before, no doubt, but so did jobs. And too many jobs left America’s borders for elsewhere. As factories closed, workers suffered, from small towns to the urban core. Inflation-adjusted, working wages stagnated and upward mobility flatlined. [Emphasis added]

Enough is enough. The W.T.O. should be abolished, and along with it, the new model global economy. The quest to turn the world into a liberal order of democracies was always misguided. It always depended on unsustainable American sacrifice and force of arms. And its companion economic order has, in a similar vein, succeeded mostly in weakening American workers and industry. [Emphasis added]

The U.S., Hawley writes, ought to “seek new arrangements and new rules” to restore the nation’s economic sovereignty — which includes returning to the economic system before the WTO’s creation, where reciprocal trade “protected our national interests and the nation’s workers.” Hawley writes:

That means returning production to this country, securing our critical supply chains and encouraging domestic innovation and manufacturing. It means striking trade deals that are truly mutual and truly beneficial for America and walking away when they are not. It means building a new network of trusted friends and partners to resist Chinese economic imperialism.

Since the North American Free Trade Agreement (NAFTA) was enacted and China entered the World Trade Organization (WTO), nearly five million American manufacturing jobs have been eliminated from the American economy — 3.4 million of which are due to U.S. free trade with China. The mass elimination of working- and middle-class jobs and depressed U.S. wages due to NAFTA and China’s entering the WTO have coincided with a more than 600 percent increase in trade deficits.

Of the 3.4 million American jobs lost due to free trade with China, about 2.6 million — or about three-fourths — were lost in the crippled manufacturing industry. U.S. trade deficits with China have eliminated American jobs in all 50 states.

Bush Center Slams Trump: We Want More Migration

The economics director at President George W. Bush’s advocacy center slammed President Donald Trump’s popular, pro-American immigration policy.

The May 1 slam came just before Bush posted a May 2 video urging national unity in the coronavirus crash that has pushed more than 25 million Americans out of jobs.

“The most important thing to remember in this is that we don’t want [Trump’s] temporary policy to become permanent immigration policy,” economic director Laura Collins said a video posted on the center’s Twitter account. She continued:

We know immigrants are good for the economy. We know they’re good for our culture. We know they’re in this fight with us together, and we’re going to meet them working with us side by side in any recovery after the pandemic is over.

Trump’s April 22 immigration policy says the economic needs of American employees are more important than the immigration preferences of foreigners. His policy temporarily trims the annual inflow of legal immigrants and directs agencies to review visa worker programs in 30 days.

Polls show the public — including recent immigrants — is overwhelmingly aligned with Trump in prioritizing jobs for Americans over welcomes for legal immigrants.

The visa worker programs targeted by Trump are extremely important to the Fortune 500. In response, the companies’ lobbyists and progressives allies have quickly launched a hard-nosed lobbying campaign and a soft-focus PR campaign to protect the programs and mass migration.

The Bush center has joined the #AllofUS campaign.

Congress now accepts 1 million legal immigrants per year.

It also allows companies to keep roughly 2 million cheap and complaint foreign visa-workers in U.S. jobs. The 2 million workforce includes roughly 1.5 million foreign white-collar visa workers, plus roughly 400,000 foreign blue-collar guest workers, in professional or seasonal jobs needed by roughly 26 million unemployed Americans.

Collins touted the corporate PR campaign, dubbed #AllofUs, in her video slamming Trump’s pro-employee policy.

“The stated objectives of this executive order were to preserve medical supplies in a pandemic for American immigrants already here and to preserve job openings in any recovery for American workers that can be first in line,” Collins said her video posted May 1.

She continued:

Unfortunately, this executive order is not going to accomplish either of those objectives.

First of all, the virus affects all of us equally. It doesn’t care who we are, or where we’re from. Current travel restrictions and quarantine protocols in place, protect us from viral spread regardless of where we’re from. And so there’s not really a need to prevent more people from coming in in terms of slowing down viral spread. We know the virus is here and it’s spreading. And what we’re doing is working.

However, Collins’ main focus is the economic worry that Trump’s reform may permanently reduce the unending inflow of foreign workers, consumers, and renters preferred by CEOs and investors. She said:

We know immigrants are good for the economy. We know immigrants don’t compete with native-born Americans for jobs. And we know that before the pandemic, there were millions of unfilled jobs in the United States.

If we assume that in any recovery, all those jobs come back, every American that wants a job will have the ability to fill the jobs that were there. We’re still going to have shortages and we’re going to need immigrants there to help fill those jobs.

We simply don’t have a labor force at full employment, big enough to fill all the jobs in the economy.

Immigrants — like the birth of Americans’ children — help grow the economy. They expand the labor force, boost retail sales, spike real estate values, fuel the stock market, and expand the number of companies. A growing economy can be good for all — but it is especially good for wealthy people who can invest in company stocks.

Yet every annual wave of immigrants also causes much economic harm to the roughly 220 million Americans (and recent legal immigrants) who work for a living, or who are educating themselves to take jobs in a few years.

Every new wave of legal immigrants and illegal migrants competes for existing jobs and force down Americans’ wages. The arrivals also expand poverty, reduce pressure on investors to buy productivity-boosting machines, drive up the price of good housing, and add congestion to K-12 schools and universities.

Immigrants, and especially visa workers, also push Americans out of careers and technological research, and they distort Americans’ politics by expanding cultural diversity and identity politics.

Over the last 30 years, since George Bush’s father signed a 1990 bill roughly doubling immigration, the government’s massive inflow of immigrants has kept Americans wages almost flat (until 2018) and so has turbocharged the U.S. stock market.

The establishment’s immigration policy has worked with free trade to shift much wealth from middle-class employees and the heartland states towards the stock market and the major coastal cities.

Trump was elected in 2016 to help reverse the establishment’s economic policy.

Since  2017, he has mostly stopped illegal migration, and he pushed wages up for blue-collars in 2018 and 2019. He has also trimmed legal immigration, and his April 22 policy sets the stage for incremental, significant reductions in the visa worker programs, such as the little-known B-1 and OPT visa programs.

Business lobbies strongly oppose reductions in immigration and visa workers.

Collins’ pro-migration views reflect George W. Bush’s pro-business leaning and his 2001 push to allow U.S. employers to bypass Americans and instead hire any willing workers from anywhere on the globe. The 2001 Twin Towers attack stopped Bush’s “Any Willing Worker” plan.

Collins insisted, “We know immigrants don’t compete with native-born Americans for jobs.”

But the Center for Immigration Studies reported in August 2018:

If immigrants “do jobs that Americans won’t do”, we should be able to identify occupations in which the workers are nearly all foreign-born. However, among the 474 separate occupations defined by the Department of Commerce, we find only a handful of majority-immigrant occupations, and none completely dominated by immigrants (legal or illegal). Furthermore, in none of the 474 occupations do illegal immigrants constitute a majority of workers.

For example, companies provide the reward of green cards to roughly 50,000 foreign visa-workers each year after those foreign workers have taken technology jobs from Americans via the H-1B and other visa programs.

Exclusive–Jeff Sessions: Why Bring Foreign Workers to U.S. When 30,000,000 Americans Are Jobless?

United States Senate candidate Jeff Sessions says there is no shortage of American labor, calling out lawmakers and their “corporate friends” for supporting a continued flow of foreign workers to the U.S. to take jobs in the midst of mass unemployment.

In an exclusive interview with Alexander Marlow on SiriusXM Patriot’s Breitbart News Daily, Sessions said it is critical that lawmakers defend the interests of unemployed Americans who have been laid off due to forced business closures spurred by the Chinese coronavirus crisis.

LISTEN:

Breitbart · Breitbart News Daily – Jeff Sessions – May 4, 2020

“We have 30 million unemployed … We don’t have jobs in the United States,” Sessions said. “There are no jobs now. We’ll lay off more people this week then we did last week.”

“Why would we bring in foreign workers to take jobs when we don’t have jobs for the American people,” Sessions asked. “What theory is it that they’re operating under when they try to justify such a policy position? It’s certainly not in the interest of the American people. It’s in the interest of their corporate friends and some ideology that they adhere to … so I do think that it’s time for this Congress to deliver on its promises that the president made in the campaign.”

Sessions said more Republican lawmakers must be stepping up to the plate to take on China, holding the communist regime accountable for wrecking the U.S. economy. A select committee in the House and Senate, Sessions said, ought to be formed to determine the truth behind China’s role in spreading the coronavirus to the world.

“Where are the rest of the Republicans? Where are they? I mean this is a big issue,” Sessions said. “This party owes it to the American people to defend our interests — American interests. And I don’t think there’s been near enough action.”

“I would think the first thing we need to do is to rally the people who understand the significance of this and have what I call for, is a select committee to study this pandemic and how it started,” Sessions continued. “We did that after the attack on Pearl Harbor … where House and Senate appoint select members of congress … and the charge is what did China know and what did they do, when did they act on it or not, and did they lie about it? The world needs to know.”

As Breitbart has reported, existing U.S. legal immigration law greatly benefits China. Visa programs such as the EB-5 visa for wealthy foreign investors, the F-1 student visa, and J-1 visas allow about 180,000 Chinese nationals to enter the country every year in addition to the 60,000 to 70,000 Chinese nationals who secure green cards annually.

There are nearly 500,000 Chinese students in the U.S. in any given year — more than any other nation — taking seats in university classrooms and looking to eventually obtain Optional Practical Training (OPT) authorization to take entry-level jobs in white-collar professions.

Josh Hawley: GOP Must Defend Middle Class Americans Against ‘Concentrated Corporate Power,’ Tech Billionaires

JOHN BINDER

 

The Republican Party must defend America’s working and middle class against “concentrated corporate power” and the monopolization of entire sectors of the United States’ economy, Sen. Josh Hawley (R-MO) says.

In an interview on The Realignment podcast, Hawley said that “long gone are the days where” American workers can depend on big business to look out for their needs and the needs of their communities.

Instead, Hawley explained that increasing “concentrated corporate power” of whole sectors of the American economy — specifically among Silicon Valley’s giant tech conglomerates — is at the expense of working and middle class Americans.

“One of the things Republicans need to recover today is a defense of an open, free-market, of a fair healthy competing market and the length between that and Democratic citizenship,” Hawley said, and continued:

At the end of the day, we are trying to support and sustain here a great democracy. We’re not trying to make a select group of people rich. They’ve already done that. The tech billionaires are already billionaires, they don’t need any more help from government. I’m not interested in trying to help them further. I’m interested in trying to help sustain the great middle of this country that makes our democracy run and that’s the most important challenge of this day.

“You have these businesses who for years now have said ‘Well, we’re based in the United States, but we’re not actually an American company, we’re a global company,'” Hawley said. “And you know, what has driven profits for some of our biggest multinational corporations? It’s been … moving jobs overseas where it’s cheaper … moving your profits out of this country so you don’t have to pay any taxes.”

“I think that we have here at the same time that our economy has become more concentrated, we have bigger and bigger corporations that control more and more of our key sectors, those same corporations see themselves as less and less American and frankly they are less committed to American workers and American communities,” Hawley continued. “That’s turned out to be a problem which is one of the reasons we need to restore good, healthy, robust competition in this country that’s going to push up wages, that’s going to bring jobs back to the middle parts of this country, and most importantly, to the middle and working class of this country.”

While multinational corporations monopolize industries, Hawley said the GOP must defend working and middle class Americans and that big business interests should not come before the needs of American communities:

A free market is one where you can enter it, where there are new ideas, and also by the way, where people can start a small family business, you shouldn’t have to be gigantic in order to succeed in this country. Most people don’t want to start a tech company. [Americans] maybe want to work in their family’s business, which may be some corner shop in a small town … they want to be able to make a living and then give that to their kids or give their kids an option to do that. [Emphasis added]

The problem with corporate concentration is that it tends to kill all of that. The worst thing about corporate concentration is that it inevitably believes to a partnership with big government. Big business and big government always get together, always. And that is exactly what has happened now with the tech sector, for instance, and arguably many other sectors where you have this alliance between big government and big business … whatever you call it, it’s a problem and it’s something we need to address. [Emphasis added]

Hawley blasted the free trade-at-all-costs doctrine that has dominated the Republican and Democrat Party establishments for decades, crediting the globalist economic model with hollowing “out entire industries, entire supply chains” and sending them to China, among other countries.

“The thing is in this country is that not only do we not make very much stuff anymore, we don’t even make the machines that make the stuff,” Hawley said. “The entire supply chain up and down has gone overseas, and a lot of it to China, and this is a result of policies over some decades now.”

As Breitbart News reported, Hawley detailed in the interview how Republicans like former President George H.W. Bush’s ‘New World Order’ agenda and Democrats have helped to create a corporatist economy that disproportionately benefits the nation’s richest executives and donor class.

The billionaire class, the top 0.01 percent of earners, has enjoyed more than 15 times as much wage growth as the bottom 90 percent since 1979. That economy has been reinforced with federal rules that largely benefits the wealthiest of wealthiest earners. A study released last month revealed that the richest Americans are, in fact, paying a lower tax rate than all other Americans.

Americans need more migrants to recover from the coronavirus crash, according to former President George W. Bush’s presidential center.

The nation’s economic recovery will be slowed by the temporary suspension on importing foreign workers that President Donald Trump extended and expanded on June 22, said a June 23 tweet from the center:

The tweet links to a May 18 statement that said:

Temporarily suspending admission of immigrants will deprive us of the unique skills and contributions they can make to America’s recovery. We should not allow a temporary change like this to become permanent policy …

We need immigrants to continue working in our hospitals. We need immigrants to continue stocking our grocery shelves. We need immigrants to process the bacon we will eat at our first brunch out with friends.

The claim was signed by Laura Collins, director of the Bush Institute-SMU Economic Growth Initiative. She posted her own tweet on June 23, saying, “immigration is good for the economy and necessary for the recovery.”

The United States already has more than40 million immigrants, including at least 11 million illegal migrants, among roughly 280 million Americans.

There is much data that Americans do not need immigrants. When CEOs offer decent pay, Americans do step forward as doctors and nurses, retail workers, and meat processors — a well as software developersfruit pickers, and restaurant workers,

But business groups are pulling out all the stops as they denounce Trump’s temporary freeze and his modest reforms of H-1B visaworker program.

The visa worker reforms will be “catastrophic” if Trump is elected, said Todd Schulte, the director of FWD.us, an advocacy group for wealthy West Coast investors:

Yesterday’s EO to slash legal immigration is almost certainly much, much worse than people assume it to be. The consequences of this if there is a second term are nothing short of catastrophic. No hyperbole here.

Schulte’s investors profit from cheap labor because it allows them to dramatically inflate their startup companies’ stock values. The group was created by Microsoft founder Bill Gates and Facebook founder Mark Zuckerberg and now includes many investors who want to minimize payroll costs.

In contrast, Trump’s reforms may help Americans regain a foothold in the nation’s top technology companies, most of which are now mostly staffed by Chinese and Indian visa workers.

Most visa workers are hired in blocs to perform lower-skilled, routine software or accounting jobs. Very few perform high-skilled tasks that cannot be accomplished by Americans.

These H-1B workers are usually cheaper than Americans, but U.S. CEOs prefer them because they are compliant, controllable, and disposable.

U.S. executives know that visa workers are not immigrants. The visa workers have almost no legal rights in the United States and will rationally work long hours for many years in the hope of getting paid with a green card that allows them to escape India or China.

In contrast, American professionals are a labor headache for CEOs, C-suite executives, and hiring managers. They argue with their managers, demand time off on the weekend, quit for other opportunities, go on local TV when their department is laid off, testify in court when low-quality products cause damage, and they also try to develop innovative products.

Overall, investors and CEOs support high levels of immigration because it reduces wages and salaries. But immigration also boosts sales, rents, and real estate values as immigrants crowd into the nation’s retail stores, car lots, apartments, and housing markets.

When he was in power, President Bush strongly supported cheap labor migration. For example, he supported the “Any Willing Worker” plan that would have allowed U.S. employers to hire foreigners directly if Americans would not take the job at the offered wage. Bush also supported amnesties that would boost Wall Street values by flooding the U.S. labor market.

Advocates: President Trump Risks George W. Bush’s Suicide-by-Amnesty

President George W. Bush alienated the GOP’s political base by pursuing his political whale of a very unpopular amnesty and cheap labor law.

In 2006 and 2007, Bush campaigned for two unpopular amnesty bills that would have spiked stock prices nationwide by lowering wages in a flood of new foreign workers.

“Every politician knows you have to keep your base and reach out to other votes,” said Rosemary Jenks, policy director for NumbersUSA. She added:

You can’t reach out to others at the expense of your base. Bush absolutely did that.

Too many people in Washington think [GOP] voters don’t have a choice. We all have choices — and one of those choices is to just stay at home. And there are a lot of advantages of staying home instead of going out to vote — [so President Donald] Trump needs to be encouraging people at every step of the way, especially when it is easy to stay at home.

Bush damaged himself in his second term, but Trump faces the voters in November, said Kevin Lynn, founder of U.S. Tech Workers. “At the end of the day, you have to motivate people to vote for you,” he said, adding:

In 2016, despite what people said to their spouses, to their neighbors, they pulled that lever for Trump when they went into that booth. That took a lot, and they did it because they wanted to see changes, and if they think they have another corrupt swamp creature in the White House, they might not do it.

Bush’s push for his 2006 amnesty bill cut his shrinking support from 35 percent in April 2006 down to 31 percent in May 2006, according to Gallup’s tracking data.

The next year, amid a difficult war in Iraq, Bush campaigned for the 2007 amnesty bill– and he pushed his weakening support of 32 percent in June 2007 down to 29 percent in July 2007, according to Gallup’s tracking data.

The 2007 plan offered work permits to all migrants who filed within one year — unless agency officials could prove within 24 hours the migrants’ documents were fake.

In November 2008, Sen. Barack Obama easily defeated Sen. John McCain  — who also supported the unpopular amnesty bills. At the same time, the Democrats also gained eight seats in the Senate.

This self-inflicted decline and disaster were measured by Gallup, which tracked Bush’s ratings throughout his presidency.

Bush started with low-50s popularity, after a very rough post-election campaign fight in Florida. His support spiked after the 9/11 Islamic atrocity, fell, and then jumped when the U.S. overthrew Iraq’s dictator. Then Bush’s numbers gently slid downwards for the rest of his administration.

At the end of 2008, having alienated his base with two failed amnesty campaigns, Bush’s rates were at 29 percent support, 67 percent opposition.

“There’s no question that doing something that was incredibly unpopular with his own party did not help him,” said Jenks. “The more people found out what was in the [amnesty bills], the worse it was for him,” she said.

In contrast, President Donald Trump has repeatedly fended off cheap labor plans that are pushed by his deputies. On June 22, he blocked several visa worker pipelines used by Fortune 500 companies to hire foreign workers, and he directed officials to rewrite the regulations governing the pipes. Polls showed Trump’s “Hire American” plan is strongly supported by voters.

Suburban women strongly support Trump's June 22 immigration policy, says Rasmussen.

His policy gets plurality support among liberal suburban women – even when they know it is his policy.

Gosh, voters prioritize families' jobs above more immigration?#H1Bhttps://t.co/eRelf17XHA

On July 10, however, Trump added much confusion on July 10 when told the Spanish-language TV network Telemundo:

I’m going to do a big executive order. I have the power to do it as president. And I’m going to make DACA a part of it. But we put it in and we’re probably then going to be taking it out. We’re working out the legal complexities right now, but I’m going to be signing a very major immigration bill as an executive order. I’m going to make DACA a part of it.

In George W. Bush’s first term, he hoped to pass his “any willing worker” plan but was derailed by the 9/11 attack. The radical plan would have allowed employers to hire foreigners from anywhere in the world if Americans declined to work for the offered wages.

The plan would have converted America from a nation of mutual obligations into an employer-dominated worksite and would have driven down wages, according to many economists, executives, and institutions.

For example, a 2013 CBO report predicted that the 2013 “Gang of Eight” amnesty and immigration bill would reduce the share of income that goes to wage earners and increase the share that goes to investors. “Because the bill would increase the rate of growth of the labor force, average wages would be held down in the first decade after enactment,” the CBO report said.

The fact that the labor supply effects wages is Economics 101. Amid evasive denials by immigration advocates, the fact has been acknowledged by independent academics, the National Academies of Science, the Congressional Budget OfficeexecutivesThe Economist globalist weekly, more academics, the New York Times, the New York Times again, state officialsunionsmore business executiveslobbyists, employees, the Wall Street Journalfederal economistsGoldman Sachsoil drillers, the Business Roundtable, the Bank of Ireland, Wall Street analystsfired professionalslegislators, the CEO of the U.S. Chamber of Commerce2015 Bernie Sanders, the Wall Street Journal’s editorial board, construction workers, New York Times subscribersRobert Rubin, a New York Times columnist, author Barack Obama, and President Barack Obama.

Bush’s support for amnesty was wrapped up in his Cold War image of the United States as a “Nation of Immigrants,” not as a nation of Americans. This view is still being pushed by Bush’s presidential center. In May 2019, Breitbart reported:

There are no Americans in America and no history of America — just immigrants and their “story,” says a new video by former President George W. Bush’s Bush Center.

“America’s story is an immigrant story,” says the video. “Now as before, American is a nation of immigrants,” says the video which refers to 280 million Americans — including many who voted for George W. Bush in 2000 — merely as an unnamed blob of “population,” “labor force,” “workers,” and even “natives.”

America would be weak without immigrants, the video argues, as it declares that “immigrants make America strong.”

In fact, the video even describes the American children of immigrants as “immigrants” to help minimize the impact of Americans on their own nation.

A poll shows the obvious: Voters strongly oppose the sale of work permits to migrants by the universities' #OPT program.

They'll dislike it more when they see how OPT shoves them & their college-grad kids out of Fortune 500 jobs & the middle class. #H1Bhttps://t.co/LFKmMJQRzX

Why Are Biden and Democrats Carrying Out the Murder of the Middle Class?

Why Are Biden and Democrats Carrying Out the Murder of the Middle Class?

Back in 2014, I wrote a book titled "The Murder of the Middle Class." Don't look now, but it's happening.

Back then, I was referring only to the murder of middle-class jobs and the American Dream. Today, Democrats appear to want the middle class eliminated altogether. They're not just after our jobs; they're playing Russian roulette with our lives.

I'm dead serious (excuse the pun). Biden -- or, more likely, the real decision-makers behind the man who resembles a braindead puppet -- really does appear to be carrying out the murder of the middle class.

Let's start with COVID-19. If COVID is as bad as Democrats make it out to be; if we're all at risk of death; if the entire country needs to be shut down, locked down, masked, distanced and vaccinated forevermore, then why are Democrats letting countless strangers a day into our country? We know nothing about them, or their health. If they're sick with COVID or other Third World diseases, why aren't they sending them back? Just like we did for decades at Ellis Island. Why would anyone want to risk allowing sick or diseased people into the USA?

Based on the numbers at the border so far this year, we can expect between 1 million and 2 million immigrants entering our country in just the next year, who could spread infection and death and, quite possibly, reignite a pandemic that has almost taken down our entire economy. Who would allow this? Who would encourage it?

Wait, it gets much worse. There are reports of immigrants, many of them diseased or sick with COVID, being put on airplanes -- without any ID. We don't know who they are, where they're from or why they're here. What if they're sitting next to you and your children on a flight? They could make you sick; they could kill your spouse or your children with COVID, or one of the new variant strains, or any other Third World disease.

Or they could kill you, your family and everyone else on that plane in a terrorist attack. How does the Biden administration know who is a terrorist? It doesn't. And obviously, it doesn't care.

But wait, it gets worse. A fan of mine is headed to Texas for business. She can't find a hotel room at any moderately priced hotel in the Dallas-Fort Worth Metropolitan Area. Hotels around Dallas (and the rest of Texas) are clearly booked by the government. Why? They're apparently housing illegal aliens -- with our tax dollars.

The hotels in Texas are all booked up. Check for yourself. It's guaranteed money for these hotel chains. Good luck finding a hotel room in Texas if you're an American citizen.

But of course, that's not the big problem. How many of these illegal alien hotel guests could have COVID? How many have actually been tested? Biden & Co. could be sending diseased foreigners into U.S. hotels. Those people could sicken or kill the other guests. They could certainly sicken or kill the hotel staff. And all those sick American citizens could take COVID back home to their families, workplaces and classrooms.

Folks, this is insanity. This is reckless manslaughter. Biden and his America-hating, socialist cabal are playing Russian roulette with our lives. They obviously couldn't care less if American citizens die, as long as the ends justify the means (as Marxist author Saul Alinsky taught them).

What is that end goal? Democrats want to flood America, particularly Texas, with illegal aliens, otherwise known in Democratic circles as future Democratic voters. They want to change the electorate. They want to replace American voters with foreign voters who are dependent on welfare from cradle to grave.

They want to "fundamentally change America" with one-party rule. They want to make America foreign to Americans.

And to make this goal a reality, it sure looks like they're willing to carry out the murder of the middle class.
