John McCain, Open Borders RINO
. . .
Last August, McCain wanted to bring the Gang of Eight bill back and provide a path to citizenship for illegal immigrants with his pal Senate Minority Leader Democrat Chuck Schumer. This is one of many examples of McCain trying to thwart President Trump’s America First agenda, bringing amnesty back in vogue. Why he ever thought this would get anywhere under the Trump administration is anyone’s guess. Trump’s promise to build a wall has been regularly dismissed by Senator McCain who said it would do nothing to stop illegal immigration. But granting amnesty to 12 million illegal immigrants who failed to play by the rules and broke federal law would stop illegal immigration?
Let’s face it, John McCain is a party-dividing RINO, especially when it comes to immigration. He thinks the GOP is on the “wrong side” of progress, as he writes in his new book, and attacks Iowa Congressman Steve King, a strong proponent of border security and Trump’s America First, Build the Wall agenda.

FIFTEEN THINGS YOU SHOULD KNOW ABOUT LA RAZA “THE RACE”
by Michelle Malkin
Only in America could critics of a group called
"The Race" be labeled racists. Such is the triumph of left-wing
identity chauvinists, whose aggressive activists and supine abettors have
succeeded in redefining all opposition as "hate."
Both Barack Obama and John McCain will speak this
week in San Diego at the annual conference of the National Council of La Raza,
the Latino organization whose name is Spanish for, yes, "The Race."
Can you imagine Obama and McCain paying homage to a group of white people who
called themselves that? No matter. The presidential candidates and the media
have legitimized "The Race" as a mainstream ethnic lobbying group and
marginalized its critics as intolerant bigots. The unvarnished truth is that
the group is a radical ethnic nationalist outfit that abuses your tax dollars
and milks PC politics to undermine our sovereignty.
Here
are 15 things you should know about "The Race":
15. "The Race" supports driver's licenses
for illegal aliens.
14."The Race" demands in-state tuition
discounts for illegal alien students that are not available to law-abiding U.S.
citizens and law-abiding legal immigrants.
13. "The Race" vehemently opposes
cooperative immigration enforcement efforts between local, state and federal
authorities.
12. "The Race" opposes a secure fence on
the southern border.
11. "The Race" joined the American-Arab
Anti-Discrimination Committee in a failed lawsuit attempt to prevent the feds
from entering immigration information into a key national crime database -- and
to prevent local police officers from accessing the data.
10. "The Race" opposed the state of
Oklahoma's tough immigration-enforcement-first laws, which cut off welfare to
illegal aliens, put teeth in employer sanctions and strengthened local-federal
cooperation and information sharing.
9. "The Race" joined other open-borders,
anti-assimilationists and sued to prevent Proposition 227, California's
bilingual education reform ballot initiative, from becoming law.
8. "The Race" bitterly protested
common-sense voter ID provisions as an "absolute disgrace."
7. "The Race" has consistently opposed
post-9/11 national security measures at every turn.
6. Former "Race" president Raul
Yzaguirre, Hillary Clinton's Hispanic outreach adviser, said this: "U.S.
English is to Hispanics as the Ku Klux Klan is to blacks." He was
referring to U.S. English, the nation's oldest, largest citizens' action group
dedicated to preserving the unifying role of the English language in the United
States. "The Race" also pioneered Orwellian open-borders Newspeak and
advised the Mexican government on how to lobby for illegal alien amnesty while
avoiding the terms "illegal" and "amnesty."
5. "The Race" gives mainstream cover to a
poisonous subset of ideological satellites, led by Movimiento Estudiantil
Chicano de Aztlan, or Chicano Student Movement of Aztlan (MEChA). The late GOP
Rep. Charlie Norwood rightly characterized the organization as "a radical
racist group … one of the most anti-American groups in the country, which has
permeated U.S. campuses since the 1960s, and continues its push to carve a
racist nation out of the American West."
4. "The Race" is currently leading a
smear campaign against staunch immigration enforcement leaders and has called
for TV and cable news networks to keep immigration enforcement proponents off
the airwaves -- in addition to pushing for Fairness Doctrine policies to shut
up their foes. The New York Times reported that current "Race"
president Janet Murguia believes "hate speech" should "not be
tolerated, even if such censorship were a violation of First Amendment
rights."
3. "The Race" sponsors militant ethnic
nationalist charter schools subsidized by your public tax dollars (at least $8
million in federal education grants). The schools include Aztlan Academy in
Tucson, Ariz., the Mexicayotl Academy in Nogales, Ariz., Academia Cesar Chavez
Charter School in St. Paul, Minn., and La Academia Semillas del Pueblo in Los
Angeles, whose principal inveighed: "We don't want to drink from a White
water fountain, we have our own wells and our natural reservoirs and our way of
collecting rain in our aqueducts. We don't need a White water fountain …
ultimately the White way, the American way, the neo liberal, capitalist way of
life will eventually lead to our own destruction."
2. "The Race" has perfected the art of
the PC shakedown at taxpayer expense, pushing relentlessly to lower home loan
standards for Hispanic borrowers, reaping millions in federal "mortgage
counseling" grants, seeking special multimillion-dollar earmarks and
partnering with banks that do business with illegal aliens.
1. "The Race" thrives on ethnic supremacy
-- and the elite sheeple's unwillingness to call it what it is. As historian
Victor Davis Hanson observes: "[The] organization's very nomenclature 'The
National Council of La Raza' is hate speech to the core. Despite all the
contortions of the group, Raza (as its Latin cognate suggests) reflects the
meaning of 'race' in Spanish, not 'the people' -- and that's precisely why we
don't hear of something like 'The National Council of the People,' which would
not confer the buzz notion of ethnic, racial and tribal chauvinism."
The
fringe is the center. The center is the fringe. Viva La Raza.

ALIEN
NATION: Secrets of the Invasion
May
2006 – ALIEN NATION: Secrets of the Invasion – Why America's government invites
rampant illegal immigration
It's
widely regarded as America's biggest problem: Between 12 and 20 million aliens
(MOST SOURCES SUGGEST THERE ARE MUCH MORE LIKELY NEARLY 40 MILLION ILLEGALS
HERE NOW) – including large numbers of criminals, gang members and even
terrorists – have entered this nation illegally, with countless more streaming
across our scandalously unguarded borders daily.
The
issue polarizes the nation, robs citizens of jobs, bleeds taxpayers, threatens
America's national security and dangerously balkanizes the country into unassimilated
ethnic groups with little loyalty or love for America's founding values.
Indeed, the de facto invasion is rapidly transforming America into a totally
different country than the one past generations have known and loved.
And
yet – most Americans have almost no idea what is really going on, or why it is
happening.
While
news reports depict demonstrations and debates, and while politicians promise
"comprehensive border security programs," no real answers ever seem
to emerge.
But
there are answers. Truthful answers. Shocking answers.
In
its groundbreaking May edition, WND's acclaimed monthly Whistleblower magazine
reveals the astounding hidden agendas, plans and people behind America's
immigration nightmare.
Titled
"ALIEN NATION," the issue is subtitled "SECRETS OF THE INVASION:
Why government invites rampant illegal immigration." Indeed, it reveals
pivotal secrets very few Americans know. For example:
Did
you know that the powerfully influential Council on Foreign Relations – often
described as a “shadow government" – issued a comprehensive report last
year laying out a five-year plan for the "establishment by 2010 of a North
American economic and security community" with a common "outer
security perimeter"?
Roughly
translated: In the next few years, according to the 59-page report titled
"Building a North American Community," the U.S. must be integrated
with the socialism, corruption, poverty and population of Mexico and Canada.
"Common perimeter" means wide-open U.S. borders between the U.S.,
Mexico and Canada. As Phyllis Schlafly reveals in this issue of Whistleblower:
"This CFR document asserts that President Bush, Mexican President Vicente
Fox and Canadian Prime Minister Paul Martin 'committed their governments' to
this goal when they met at Bush's ranch and at Waco, Texas, on March 23, 2005.
The three adopted the 'Security and Prosperity Partnership of North America'
and assigned 'working groups' to fill in the details. It was at this same
meeting, grandly called the North American Summit, that President Bush pinned
the epithet 'vigilantes' on the volunteers guarding our border in
Arizona."
The
CFR report – important excerpts of which are published in Whistleblower – also
suggests North American elitists begin getting together regularly, and presumably
secretly, "to buttress North American relationships, along the lines of
the Bilderberg or Wehrkunde conferences, organized to support transatlantic
relations." The Bilderberg and Wehrkunde conferences are highly secret
conclaves of the powerful. For decades, there have been suspicions that such
meetings were used for plotting the course of world events and especially the
centralization of global decision-making.
Did
you know that radical immigrant groups – including the League of United Latin
American Citizens (LULAC), the Mexican American Legal Defense and Educational
Fund (MALDEF), the Movimiento Estudiantil Chicano de Aztlan (MEChA) and the
National Council of La Raza (La Raza) – not only share a revolutionary agenda
of conquering America's southwest, but they also share common funding sources,
notably the Ford and Rockefeller foundations?
''California
is going to be a Hispanic state," said Mario Obeldo, former head of
MALDEF. "Anyone who does not like it should leave." And MEChA's goal
is even more radical: an independent ''Aztlan,'' the collective name this
organization gives to the seven states of the U.S. Southwest – Arizona,
California, Colorado, Nevada, New Mexico, Texas and Utah. So why would the
Rockefeller and Ford foundations support such groups? Joseph Farah tells the
story in this issue of Whistleblower.
Why
have America's politicians – of both major parties – allowed the illegal alien
invasion of this nation to continue for the last 30 years unabated? With
al-Qaida and allied terrorists promising to annihilate major U.S. cities with
nuclear weapons, with some big-city hospital emergency rooms near closure due
to the crush of so many illegals, with the rapid spread throughout the U.S. of
MS-13, the super-violent illegal alien gang – with all this and more, why do
U.S. officials choose to ignore the laws of the land and the will of the people
to pursue, instead, policies of open borders and lax immigration enforcement?
The
answers to all this and much more are in Whistleblower's "ALIEN NATION"
issue.
Is
there hope? Or is America lost to a demographic invasion destined to annihilate
its traditional Judeo-Christian culture, and to the ever-growing likelihood
that nuclear-armed jihadists will cross our porous borders and wreak
unthinkable destruction here?
There
most definitely is hope, according to this issue of Whistleblower. Although
most politicians of both major political parties have long since abdicated
their responsibility for securing America's borders and dealing effectively
with the millions already here illegally, there are a few exceptions – most
notably Colorado Rep. Tom Tancredo.
May's
Whistleblower includes an exclusive sneak preview of Tancredo's forthcoming
blockbuster book, "In Mortal Danger: The Battle for America’s Border and
Security." In an extended excerpt, Whistleblower presents Tencredo's
expert and inspired analysis of exactly how to solve the nation's most vexing
problem.

THE
AZTLAN INVASION & THE LA RAZA FASCIST PARTY FOR MEXICAN SUPREMACY
“The
radicals seek nothing less than secession from the United States whether to
form their own sovereign state or to reunify with Mexico. Those who desire
reunification with Mexico are irredentists who seek to reclaim Mexico's
"lost" territories in the American Southwest.”

The McCain funeral – a failed brand re-launch
When Caesar died, at least according to Shakespeare, the funeral oration by Mark Antony was about 40 minutes. And Caesar had changed much of the world of his time.
The single defining moment for many in the 1960’s generation was the assassination of John Kennedy. His funeral was two full days, every moment both memorable and historic. It was an event that helped an entire nation properly grieve.
So when a senator dies, surrounded by his loving family, from a terrible illness, and he receives two, maybe three funerals, lasting most of a week, that is pretty much over the top. And this one was just way over the top.

One wonders if it was meant to be more – perhaps a brand re-launch.
As a brand re-launch, those around McCain seem to want to first settle scores with those not in attendance likely followed by the eternal appeal of “…what would John McCain do?” Every time there is a needed commentator for some anti-Trump or anti-conservative issue, in comes the McCain brand spokesperson with the refrain the press most craves.
For the brand, there is life after death.
In life McCain was a war hero because he was captured and tortured. Nobody questions such courage. He could have come home early, we are told, but did not because he did not want special treatment. That is heroism.
Then there is the senator. Like many politicians, he did not miss the darker side as his Keating 5 scandal well recalls.
McCain will always be known, by friends and enemies, as the only Republican in a political generation loved by the press. Press love comes pretty cheaply. Bash Republicans, talk up amnesty, appear ready to cut a deal with any Democrat who wants to deliver a body blow to the conservative middle of America, and you are there.
McCain’s major achievements were a campaign finance bill which was overturned and support for Middle East wars that have proven to be disasters. Many military families had short, one-hour funerals for their dead heroes who came back from these terrible mistakes.
It would appear those around McCain, some family and others who are the typical hangers-on are trying to do more of a brand launch than perform the last rites of a funeral event. The Ted Kennedy maxim at his brother Robert’s funeral may be applicable here: “let us not make more of him in death than he was in life.”
John McCain was certainly a brand. His brand was “maverick.” He will be remembered by that word from this generation.
But a brand, by definition is an unchanging thing. Ivory soap is always Ivory soap. Kleenex is, well, you know what it is because it is a brand – the same brand for the last 40 years.
The tragedy of John McCain is that in his political life, he was always one step behind where the country was. Had he been the presidential candidate in 2000, rather than Bush, he likely may have won. But he wasn’t.
When he became the candidate, he was running against someone who was an historic candidate. The outcome was unfortunate but hardly McCain’s fault.
He listened to the press and seemed to believe, that like in the 1960s, the press foretold where the country was going. But he was wrong. The press had become part of what went before, not what was on its way.
McCain led the Gang of Whatever toward amnesty at a time it appeared that was going to be the next big thing.
A politician, if he is to be remembered beyond one short political generation, is one who captures the spirit of his age. And McCain never could do that because he had a tin ear when it came to the people but was all ears when it came to the popular press. And the press could not see it.
McCain missed one of the great sea changes in American history. Donald Trump did not.
This funeral, actually a brand launch for those who will claim it, with fawning press, veiled attacks on Trump failed to launch the brand. Many speakers did not appear to focus on the man, they appeared to get some petty revenge on his opponents.
It failed because this brand is fleeting. It will not last more than months. The press who extoll John McCain will move on to the next Republican to oppose Trump. Those who loathed McCain will forget their feelings and history will gently erase most edges in everyone’s memory.
Once, when we had some 30-somethings at our house, we noticed a Bob Hope movie was on the television in the other room. We commented on it and were shocked when both of the 30-somethings said “…who’s Bob Hope?"
30 years from now, there will be 30-somethings who will say “…who’s John McCain?”
They will, however, know just who Donald Trump was.
Because Donald Trump, unlike John McCain, grasped the spirit of his age.

September 3, 2018
Is it over yet?
There’s a huge difference between the solemn, sorrowful citizens who lined the streets to say good-bye to Ronald Reagan, John Kennedy, and FDR and the rubberneckers hoping to catch a glimpse of celebrity politicians putting in a public appearance for the late Senator McCain’s multiple memorials. Releasing those men we loved from afar to a higher and happier place bears no resemblance to spectators taking part in one of the “scheduled events” posted strategically on the Fox News website and elsewhere.
Despite of the wall-to-wall media coverage of a seemingly unending series of funeral services (five at last count), this nation does not mourn the passing of a hero. Yes, dignitaries showed up and slid fake praise into orations meant for something other than a heartfelt memorial to the dearly departed. John McCain may have been dear to a few people, but for the rest of us (and most likely 99% of the people invited to be part of his ostentatious Display of the Dead), he remains a clear and present exemplar of a petty plutocracy and blatant self-service. One ecstatic writer called it the “biggest resistance meeting yet” as Her Father’s Daughter saddled the next generation with the bitter Sins of the Father and was celebrated for embracing what many have called a world-class grudge. Somehow, she missed the message that “John called on us to be bigger… and better than that.” Others, disgusted by the “political theatrics and cheap shots” recognized her father’s signature spitefulness -- nasty to the end and beyond. Yet it was the observation of a high-school junior that explained a certain hollowness to every news anchor’s claim that a nation mourns. CJ Pearson wrote: “At most funerals I’ve attended, it’s God’s love that fills the room, not hate and animus for a person who is not even in attendance.”
This nation does not mourn John McCain who in a final act of self-aggrandizing mythmaking, personally planned a weeklong spectacle to weaponize a sacred cultural tradition meant to remember and honor the dead. This may become his most enduring legacy. An insatiably vindictive man, his equally malicious family, and all those eager to participate in a six-minute trash-talk tribute have radically transformed one of the last public opportunities to share our humanity. We do not mourn, we cannot mourn, and we should not mourn one who in death chose to even a score only he was keeping.
