PHONY “POPULIST” BERNIE SANDERS


For all of  Bernie Sanders talk about leading “political revolution” against the “billionaire class,” Sanders backed Clinton, a shill of Wall Street and the Pentagon, who has nothing but contempt for the tens of millions of workers devastated by the 2008 financial crash and Obama’s pro-corporate policies.

Kamala Harris: Medicare for All Includes Illegal Aliens


Harris, a guest on CNN's "State of the Union," said "I support Medicare for all. It is my preferred policy." She said she supports the bill introduced by Sen. Bernie Sanders.
But the federal government then imports about 1.1 million legal immigrants and refreshes a resident population of roughly 1.5 million white-collar visa workers — including approximately one million H-1B workers — and approximately 500,000 blue-collar visa workers.
The government also prints out more than one million work permits for foreigners, tolerates about eight million illegal workers, and does not punish companies for employing the hundreds of thousands of illegal migrants who sneak across the border or overstay their legal visas each year.
This policy of inflating the labor supply boosts economic growth for investors because it ensures that employers do not have to compete for American workers by offering higher wages and better working conditions.

This policy of flooding the market with cheap, foreign, white-collar graduates and blue-collar labor also shifts enormous wealth from young employees towards older investors, even as it also widens wealth gaps, reduces high-tech investment, increases state and local tax burdens, and hurts children’s schools and college educations. It also pushes Americans away from high-tech careers and sidelines millions of marginalized Americans, including many who are now struggling with fentanyl addictions. The labor policy also moves business investment and wealth from the heartland to the coastal citiesexplodes rents and housing costsshrivels real estate values in the Midwest, and rewards investors for creating low-tech, labor-intensive workplaces.

“Extensive research by economists like George Borjas and analyst Steven Camarota reveals that the country’s current mass legal immigration system burdens U.S. taxpayers and America’s working and middle class while redistributing about $500 billion in wealth every year to major employers and newly arrived immigrants. Similarly, research has revealed how Americans’ wages are crushed by the country’s high immigration levels.”  JOHN BINDER







Watch: Bernie Sanders Expresses Intention to ‘Create a New America’

Volume 90%
2:37

Sen. Bernie Sanders (I-VT) told attendees of his “Bernie’s Back Rally” in New York on Saturday that his movement aims to not only transform the U.S. but “create a new America” altogether.

Sanders held a rally at Queensbridge Park in Long Island City, New York, with guest appearances from left-wing filmmaker Michael Moore and “Squad” member Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez (D-NY), both of whom formally offered their endorsements of the presidential hopeful.
The socialist senator spoke following speeches from his endorsers and outlined his broad vision to not only radically transform the country but to “create a new America” altogether.
Sanders stated:
Standing before you today, I believe more than I have ever believed, that we are at a moment in our great country’s history where all of us coming together can create the America that we are entitled to have. The America we know that we can become.
“We can create a new America true to the principles that are supposed to be the foundation of our democracy,” he said, failing to elaborate on what he believes the country’s founding principles are truly “supposed to” be.
Sanders’ call for the creation of a “new America” follows his recent pleas to fundamentally “transform” the country.
He told attendees of his rally at Denver’s Civic Center in September that the 2020 election is about more than defeating President Trump, and he asked them to help him “transform this country” and wage “a political revolution.”
“I am here in Denver asking your support for more than just defeating Trump,” Sanders said. “I am here to ask you to help me transform this country and create an economy and government that works for all of us, not just the one percent.”
“I am here in Denver to ask you to wage with me a political revolution, which will take on not only the corruption of Washington but the greed and corruption of the corporate elite in this country,” he added.
As Axios noted in August, Sanders’ utopian vision for the country – offering “free” health care and college, exponentially raising taxes, and implementing a multi-trillion-dollar proposal to combat “climate change” – would essentially “reorder or referee almost every part of American life.”
Sanders wrote on Instagram following his rally:
Thank you Queens for an incredible day! If there is one thing I want you to remember, it is this: If you are willing to fight for other people as much as you’re willing to fight for yourself, there is no doubt in my mind that not only will we win this election. We will transform this country.







CALIFORNIA - PELOSI, FEINSTEIN, KAMALA HARRIS AND GAVIN NEWSOM'S SANCTUARY FOR CRIMINALS STATE

Cali Governor Newsom Continues to Thwart Immigration Law Enforcement

Putting the welfare of criminal immigrants before the welfare of California citizens.
 
Frontpagemag.com

California Governor Gavin Newsom, who presides over the nation’s leading sanctuary state, decided last week that pardoning three immigrant felons to help shield them from being deported was more important than keeping the citizens of his state secure. One of the recipients of Newsom’s misplaced compassion was 42-year old Arnou Aghamalian from Iran. Aghamalian, a refugee in this country since the age of 15, was convicted at the age of 22 of helping to set fire to a car. The damage he did was most likely not as easily made to disappear as was his criminal record, thanks to Newsom. Then there was Thear Seam from Cambodia, a refugee admitted to the U.S at the age of 4 who managed in his late teens to be convicted of two felonies - second-degree robbery and acting as an accessory after the fact by helping someone evade police arrest. Finally, Newsom pardoned Victor Ayala from El Salvador. Ayala was only 2 years old when he was admitted legally to the U.S. He showed his gratitude by being convicted at the age of 21 for felony robbery after having been previously convicted for misdemeanor theft and hit-and-run. Newsom’s office claimed that the pardons were issued in part to “prevent unjust collateral consequences of conviction.” That’s doubletalk for saying the immigrants' pardons were issued to remove one ground for their possible deportations – serious criminal records.
“They are now trusted employees, husbands, fathers to young children and sons to aging parents,’’ the governor’s office said in justification for the pardon grants. “Their deportation would be an unjust collateral consequence that would harm their families and communities.” In other words, just make their criminal records disappear and all will be fine for these poor souls, who years ago had “made bad decisions and broke the law” but “served their sentences and turned their lives around.”
Newsom does not care about the welfare of the law-abiding residents of Californian communities. If he did, he would not pardon immigrants who committed felonies so that he can wipe their slates clean before a criminal record could be used by federal authorities for deportation purposes. His administration is acting contrary to the interests of Californians and defying federal law by incentivizing more illegal immigrants to seek sanctuary in California, hiding their identities from federal enforcement officers by blocking access for immigration enforcement purposes to the state’s public safety network, the California Law Enforcement Telecommunications System, not honoring detainer requests, and handing out freebies to illegal aliens like candy..
Evidently, Newsom did not get the message that Housing and Urban Development Secretary Ben Carson sent him last month in the form of a letter rejecting Newsom’s plea for federal aid in dealing with California’s homelessness problem until California mends its ways. As Secretary Carson pointed out, “Instead of protecting the most vulnerable Americans from the economic impacts of illegal immigration, California has doubled down on sanctuary State and city policies and provided benefits to illegal and inadmissible aliens. These policies strain precious resources and reduce housing options for American citizens, especially the needy and those most likely to become homeless.”
Newsom is doubling down on his policies that have led some to seek his recall. On October 12th, for example, he tweeted that California “is officially banning the use of private, for-profit prisons and immigration detention facilities.” Where is he going to send the detainees – to live on the streets along with the homeless? This is especially concerning, considering the governor tweeted last month that America should “open our doors to all seeking refuge.” And there is, of course, Newsom’s continued advocacy of California’s sanctuary policies for illegal aliens. Ironically, on October 13th he bragged that California was the first state to ban fur products as part of the fight against animal cruelty, while remaining entirely oblivious to the human cruelty of allowing illegal aliens with violent criminal records to live in California communities and threaten the lives of law-abiding residents.
California is turning into a renegade state that seeks to nullify federal law, much as the South attempted to do before the Civil War. President Trump is right in challenging such nullification actions whenever he can.

THE MAKING OF THE JEFF BEZOS DICTATORSHIP - THE CAPITAL WILL BE AMAZON, INC.

Amazon Is Becoming the Government


"You can't trust anybody or anything anymore."
I don't know how many times I've cited journeyman Johnny Whitmire's inelegant lament.  America's receding trust in institutions is well trod territory.  Our political distemper, with a reality TV star leading the nation, reflects the depleted reservoir of faith the public has in great, long-lasting public bodies.
Grizzling over institutional irreverence is now commonplace in journalism.  But fear not!  For there is one organization that the people still put their hopes and dreams into.  And no, it's not our cinque-sided, ultra-fortified military headquarters in Arlington, Va.
What is this outsized institution in American life?  The bookstore cum everything store, Amazon.com.  Much like the sprawling rainforest itself, Amazon's limbs ramify over an impressive amount of territory, affecting nearly everyone. 
And here's the most surprising part: Amazon is trusted.  Despite the immeasurable power its bald-pated founder and CEO, Jeff Bezos, wields, Amazon is seen as one of the few big outfits in America that can deliver, figuratively and literally.  "In contrast to the dysfunction and cynicism that define the times, Amazon is the embodiment of competence, the rare institution that routinely works," Franklin Foer writes in a recent profile of Bezos for The Atlantic.
Foer's piece, which is critical of Bezos's Hank Rearden–like stature, was published on nearly the same day as another long-form profile in The New Yorker.  Both write-ups expatiate on Amazon's growing command of commerce and the internet.  The company's portfolio is impressive, if unwieldy: second-biggest private U.S. employer; conduit for 40% of all e-commerce transactions, including almost half of all paperback book sales; a high-quality grocery chain; superintends nearly half the cloud-computing industry through Amazon Web Services, whose servers host Netflix, General Electric, and the CIA.  Bezos is also the owner of the Washington Post, which, for almost anyone else on Earth, would mean unexampled influence but is only a garnish on the CEO's sumptuary stock of cultural control.
Two major profiles in the country's most well-read magazines isn't coincidental.  Bezos, along with his Silicon Valley tech cousins, increasingly finds himself subject to unfriendly scrutiny.  In spite of all the trust reflective in its no-analog market share, Amazon is treated like a catawampus by both sides of the political class.  Elizabeth Warren regularly puts the screws into the retail giant, inveighing at the recent Democrat presidential debate against its stringent requirements for small businesses within its marketplace.  President Trump has contemned its creeping political influence and lack of tax payments into the public till.  Bernie Sanders, who curates inside dirt on the company from aggrieved employees, has introduced the Stop BEZOS Act to fleece Amazon for every dollar its employees receive in public assistance. 
Trashing Amazon is easy politics.  But avoiding its convenience isn't so simple.  Sanders's presidential campaign spent over $130,000 on Amazon merchandise during the second quarter of this year.  Warren's spent $80,000; the Trump campaign dropped $45,000 on the commercial giant.
Swearing off Amazon is no easier than ditching the grid entirely, so far-reaching is Bezos's arm.  Not that the company's fief-like area of control is an accident.  Amazon's pervasiveness is the result of a number of forces coinciding with an elite vision of the future.  Yes, Bezos had the foresight to get ahead of the internet revolution, commodifying digital connectedness to profit off our insatiable consumerist appetites.  But his technocratic approach aligns with the latest iteration of what James Burnham called the "managerial revolution," where accountants and middle men opaquely run society behind walls of big data.
Amazon bills itself as a "process company"; it oversees transactions rather than conducting them.  By forcing tens of thousands of smaller companies to abide by its standards to gain marketplace access, Amazon operates like its own nation-state, with Bezos as its suzerain.

Jeff Bezos’ WaPo: ICE Raids Are ‘Cruel,’ Businesses Need


 

Illegal Alien Workers

The Washington Post, owned by billionaire Jeff Bezos, who is also the CEO of Amazon, released an editorial this week blasting the enforcement of national immigration law as “cruel” and said U.S. businesses should not be deprived of employing illegal alien workers.

In an editorial in the Washington Post, the editors wrote that the recent raids on seven Mississippi food processing plants by Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) agents were “cruel” and “pointless” despite arresting and identifying 680 illegal workers, including more than 200 who had previous criminal records. About 300 of the illegalworkers arrested were released that same day on “humanitarian grounds.”
The Washington Post editors wrote:
The deportation sweep Wednesday by hundreds of U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement agents at several food processing plants in Mississippi left a trail of tears, business jitters and widespread anxiety in places where undocumented immigrants are so tightly woven into communities that the towns would struggle to exist without them. The raids inflicted predictable suffering — especially among children whose parents were suddenly carted off — to such a degree that just 24 hours afterward, ICE had released some 300 of the 680 migrants it had arrested, including those who had no criminal records. [Emphasis added]
First, the raids underline American agriculture’s deep dependency on undocumented workers, who in 2014 accounted for 17 percent of employees in the sector — and considerably more than that on farms and in many food processing plants. Little wonder that plant managers and local residents in towns targeted by ICE last week worried that the raids would sap their businesses and vitality. [Emphasis added]
Pro-reform advocates have long demanded a nationwide mandatory E-Verify system that would ban employers from hiring illegal aliens over American workers — thus shoring up millions of U.S. jobs for Americans, driving up wages, and preventing businesses from relying on cheap, foreign, exploitable labor.
The Washington Post editors, though, write that businesses need illegal workers because low wages and awful working conditions at these food processing plants make them unappealing to American workers.
“The fact is that relatively few Americans want dirty, dangerous jobs that pay $12 per hour, while requiring some employees to report to work at 3 a.m.,” the editors wrote.
Not mentioned by the Washington Post editors is the fact that the food processing plants raided in Mississippi had employed 18 juvenile illegal workers, including one as young as 14-years-old.
As Breitbart News has analyzed, ICE raids have proven to be hugely beneficial for American workers in terms of increasing wages and bettering workplace conditions. Last year, for instance, 600 jobs that were previously held by illegal workers went to black Americans after an ICE raid ,and wages for the jobs rose 25 cents.

An evergreen piece: Last year, I analyzed the benefits of ICE raids to American workers who are forced to compete against cheap, exploitable foreign labor. https://www.breitbart.com/politics/2018/09/03/labor-day-evaluating-the-benefits-of-ice-raids-for-american-workers/ 

Labor Day: Evaluating the Benefits of ICE Raids for American Workers



Research has revealed that in the long-run, deportation of illegal aliens saves American taxpayers billions in tax dollars. The cost of illegal aliens to American taxpayers over a lifetime is about $746.3 billion, for example. Compare this to the cost of a single deportation, which is about $10,854 per illegal alien based on Fiscal Year 2016 totals.
Overall, deporting all 11 to 22 million illegal aliens in the country would amount to a cost savings of about $622 billion over the course of a lifetime. This indicates that deporting illegal aliens is six times less costly than what it costs American taxpayers to currently subsidize the millions of illegal aliens living in the U.S.
The unprecedented illegal population in the U.S. is primarily concentrated in California, New York, Florida, and Texas. Today, there are at least about eight million illegal aliens 18-years-old and older who are employed in American jobs that would have otherwise gone to legal immigrants and citizens. The illegal workforce is particularly high in the construction industry, where 24 percent are illegal aliens, and the farming industry, where 15 percent of the workforce are illegal.
