America Faces No Greater Threat Than Joe Biden and the Democrat Party. Their Assault to Our Borders Is As Great As Their Assault to Free Speech and Free Elections

WHAT EVER HAPPENED TO AMERICA? AND NOW IT'S HAPPENED TO MARTHA'S VINEYARD - THE DEMOCRAT PARTYS MASSIVE INVASION OF 'CHEAP' LABOR ROBS A BANK - CERTAINLY MORE THAN ONE! - Violent crime comes to previously peaceful and safe Martha’s Vineyard. And guess why?
THERE IS NO GREATER DESTRUCTIVE FORCE IN AMERICA THAN THE BRIBES SUCKING DEMOCRAT PARTY!
Violent crime comes to previously peaceful and safe Martha’s Vineyard. And guess why?
The previously unimaginable has happened: The storybook island of Martha’s Vineyard, the seasonal home of billionaires and hundreds of elite cultural and political movers and shakers, not to mention one of three year-round homes of the Obamas, has finally experienced that rarity previously limited to the mainland: violent gun crime. And surprise: The alleged perpetrators are not MAGA white nationalists. Rather, evidence so far points to migrants, possibly of the illegal kind.
This is a bitter pill for most Vineyard residents to swallow. The island’s six towns have all declared themselves to be sanctuary communities. Last September, the island rallied (a.k.a. virtue signaled) around fifty illegal migrants who were flown there at the direction of Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis – before they were bussed and ferried off the island less than two days later.
A violent wake-up call
Last Thursday, November 17, minutes after it opened for the day, a small bank in the island town of Vineyard Haven was invaded by three armed masked men. They threatened, subdued and duct taped the employees and proceeded to make off in a stolen car with an undetermined amount of cash – after brandishing semiautomatic handguns to intimidate the bank personnel.
Nothing like this crime has ever been seen on Martha’s Vineyard. Previously, the crime rate on the small island off the southern coast of Massachusetts was almost non-existent, confined to things like DUIs and the occasional passing of a bad check. But now, like many other blue communities that have declared themselves to be sanctuaries for illegal immigrants, things are changing.
Many residents of overwhelmingly Democrat Martha’s Vineyard declare themselves to be “abolitionists” who subscribe to the Critical Race Theory that the U.S. is a racist country that continues to require the abolition of systemic racism.
On the island today – two years after the death of George Floyd and the radical transformations that followed – signs in Vineyard stores, and even a huge permanent banner outside of a private home in Vineyard Haven (clearly in violation of local zoning laws), proclaim “Black Lives Matter” and “Migrants Welcome Here.”

This island-wide welcome mat has resulted in the presence of hundreds if not thousands of migrants who now seem to be close to outnumbering the American citizens – most of them working- or middle-class – who reside year-round on the island. This radical and sudden demographic shift has been largely ignored by the island’s news media.
Demography is destiny
A recent visit to Martha’s Vineyard, which has a year-round population of about 20,000, illustrated the profound demographic changes taking place on the island. Making the rounds there this fall at one of the island’s six food markets, for example, a majority of the shoppers – and even the store personnel – were obviously recent migrants, virtually all of whom were not speaking English. Most of the immigrant couples in the store had several young children in tow, communicating with them in their native language. Presumably, all of these kids are now being educated in island schools at taxpayers’ expense.
This observation stands in radical contrast to the situation on the Vineyard only two or three years ago, when the population was overwhelmingly made up of English-speaking native-born Americans. For example, the Martha’s Vineyard Commission, in a report published in 2019, put the white population of the island at 88.1%, Black or African-American 3.7%, and Hispanic or Latino 1.7%. Those statistics have been turned on their head based on observations of the island earlier this month.
As we know, increased, unregulated, illegal migration from Third World countries is associated with rising crime rates, and now Martha’s Vineyard appears to be no exception.
Presidents Bill Clinton and Barack Obama each spent seven of their eight summer vacations during their times in office on the Vineyard – which helped to establish the previously low key destination as a world-renowned haven for the über elite and billionaires. The presence of these two influential leftists and their large media entourages and followers also served as a promotional magnet for people in the Third World.
During the past two decades on Martha’s Vineyard, McMansions have gone up, along with rents, and many who work on the island – including doctors, teachers, carpenters, and other tradesmen – can no longer afford to live there and must commute round trip from and back to the mainland each day on one of the ferry boats.
Many of the 20,000 year-round residents struggle to make ends meet, housing is desperately scarce and increasingly unaffordable, and the growing number of immigrants is rapidly diversifying the population….
The Vineyard’s average weekly wage of $1,094 in 2020 was 70 percent of the state average, and its median home price — now approaching $1.3 million — was more than double the state’s, according to an assessment of the island’s housing needs.
The middle class has become an endangered species on Martha’s Vineyard, as well as on Nantucket, its neighboring island off the coast of Cape Cod. In many ways, each island is a microcosm of life in the country as a whole, with the once thriving middle class being replaced by impoverished migrants while they are priced out by the newly wealthy.
The Vineyard was catapulted into the national news in September when Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis arranged the transport of 50 migrants, who had illegally crossed the wide-open Southern border, to Martha’s Vineyard. The fact that the migrants were transported off the island within 48 hours obscured the fact that hundreds if not thousands of other migrants – legal and illegal – continue to populate the Vineyard.
Residents are now anxious and on edge
At press time, only one of the three reported bank robbers – allegedly the getaway driver who is from Jamaica – has been arrested. News accounts have variously described him as undocumented and documented. The other alleged perps are still at large. It will be interesting to see what if any penalties await the robbers if they are apprehended.
The Boston Globe, which has been covering the story, reported in its Monday editions “As investigators’ search for suspects in the violent armed robbery of a local bank branch continued. . . residents remained on edge and anxious for an end to the manhunt that has upended normal life.”
The Globe story continued:
The dramatic theft has left its mark on daily life…. “Obviously, people are on edge and upset this happened,” said Molly Coogan, the owner of the Bunch of Grapes bookstore. . .
The bank theft impacted hundreds of students and school staff — buildings were locked down Thursday, and classes ended early that day, according to Superintendent Richard Smith, who leads Martha’s Vineyard Public Schools.
Smith said there will be an “added presence” of police at school buildings....
Some residents have made changes to their daily routines in the days after Thursday’s theft at the Rockland Trust bank branch touched off a massive law enforcement response. . . Stephen Engley, who works at the Mocha Mott’s coffeeshop, said Sunday afternoon that he has started locking his doors — his wife is pregnant, and he is concerned for the safety of his growing family.

Hey, Vineyard residents, it’s finally time for a wake-up call: Welcome to 2022 and Joe Biden’s transformed America, including Open Borders and millions of illegal migrants flooding the country. You asked for this, and now you’ve got it.
By failures of border security, a lack of the enforcement of our immigration laws from within the interior of the United States and huge numbers of visas for high tech workers, the lives and livelihoods of Americans and their children, are being stolen by America’s corrupt political elite who are doing the bidding of those who provide them with huge “Campaign Contributions” (Orwellian euphemism for bribes) pursue legislation that is diametrically opposed to the best interests of America and Americans.

Zuckerberg’s FWD.us Claims No Amnesty Ensures Midterm Defeat for Democrats
The Facebook-funded FWD.us investor advocacy group is touting the claim that Democrat turnout will drop in 2022 if the party cannot pass an amnesty through Congress.
But that claim is toothless, in large part because recent polls show that many Americans of Latino ancestry are increasingly voting for the GOP, precisely because GOP leaders oppose the amnesty-amplified wave of cheap labor into their communities.
The claim is being made by pro-migration groups, including the leaders of the National Day Laborer Organizing Network (NDLON) which denounced the Senate’s parliamentarian’s decision to exclude the parole amnesty for 6.5 million illegals from the draft Build Back Better spending plan.
Democrats’ excuses for their failure, for their incompetence, and for their insincerity will be the ammunition used by xenophobes in the Republican Party to retake control of the federal government in upcoming elections. Inaction on immigration legalization risks further propelling Trumpism in every possible way … No more excuses. Where there is a will, there is a way.
The NDLON group represents illegal migrants, most of whom work for very low wages, and none of whom can vote in U.S. elections.
Rep. Lou Correa (D-Calif.) is making the same claim, according to Bloomberg, which reported that he “warned that Democrats would face wrath from voters in the 2022 elections if they don’t secure a citizenship path”
But the NDLON claim is being echoed by the politically powerful investor class, who use imported workers, consumers, and renters to spike the value of their Wall Street investments.
Todd Schulte is the president of the FWD.us advocacy group for investors, which gets about $30 million a year from the Chan Zuckerberg Initiative to push for more migration. On Thursday night, he tweeted:
Schulte’s deputy also pushed a hard line:
Unsurprisingly, FWD.us has a hidden agenda in the amnesty debate.
The establishment media extensively cover the proposed parole amnesty for 6.5 million illegal migrants. But the media largely ignores two other proposed changes to immigration laws that would deliver huge benefits to West Coast investors who created the FWD.us advocacy group in 2013.
For example, the BBB legislation would allow the White House to provide green cards to millions of favored migrants, including perhaps three million “chain migrants” selected by recent immigrants. This open-doors policy would provide investors with millions of new profit-generating consumers, renters, and workers.
The BBB legislation would also allow President Joe Biden’s pro-migration deputies to sell green cards to at least one million migrants who have taken many of the Fortune 500 jobs sought by skilled U.S. college graduates. This change would allow Fortune 500 companies to hire many more foreign graduates with dangled offers of fast-track green cards. These workers are usually imported via the visa worker programs, such as the H-1B and Optional Practical Training program.
But those two benefits for the Fortune 500 investors may be dropped if the Democrat senators cannot also get their amnesty for illegal migrants.
On Friday, an advocacy group for corporate-funded immigration lawyers urged Congress to keep pushing the green card giveaway, even after the amnesty was nixed:
“The corporate guys are riding on perceived sympathy for the illegal alien population in order to get their immigration giveaways,” said Robert Law, the director of regulatory affairs and policy at the Center for Immigration Studies. He continued:
The Hispanic population knows immigration is a pocketbook issue for them as well, and mass illegal immigration — plus legal immigration — hurts the economic opportunities of Hispanic Americans or the black community, or any people who typically are competing at the lower end of the economic spectrum.
The Senate’s debate referee has not issued any judgments on the two green card proposals.
FWD.us’also spotlights many family dramas amid the inflow of border migrants. This focus helps keep reporters from recognizing the huge pocketbook impact of the establishment’s economic policy of mass migration. The resulting family-drama coverage also keeps many young progressives from noticing that the extraction migration policy drives up their rents and cuts their salaries.
Democrat Joe Biden has chosen Ronald Klain to be his chief of staff should he enter the White House in January. Klain worked on behalf of Silicon Valley executives and their interests, which include providing tech corporations with an endless supply of H-1B foreign visa workers and more free trade.
Klain, who was made Biden’s incoming chief of staff this week, served on the executive council of TechNet — a firm that promotes the interests of Silicon Valley’s tech corporations in Washington, D.C. Klain served on the council alongside executives from the Oracle Corporation, Hewlett-Packard Enterprise, Google, Visa, Apple, and Microsoft.
TechNet, most recently, joined a lawsuit against President Trump’s reforms to the H-1B visa program that sought to prioritize unemployed Americans for jobs rather than allowing businesses to continue importing foreign workers.

Trump’s seeking to force businesses to hire Americans over importing foreign visa workers is an affront to Silicon Valley’s tech corporations, those represented by TechNet, who advocate for an endless flow of H-1B foreign visa workers.
There are about 650,000 H-1B visa workers in the U.S. at any given moment. Americans are often laid off and forced to train their foreign replacements, as highlighted by Breitbart News. More than 85,000 Americans annually potentially lose their jobs to foreign labor through the H-1B visa program.
Analysis conducted in 2018 discovered that 71 percent of tech workers in Silicon Valley, California, are foreign-born, while the tech industry in the San Francisco, Oakland, and Hayward area is made up of 50 percent foreign-born tech workers. Up to 99 percent of H-1B visa workers imported by the top eight outsourcing firms are from India.
TechNet’s listed immigration goals include allowing corporations to dictate the annual level of legal immigration to the United States and the elimination of per-country caps that would effectively let India and China monopolize the U.S. green card system.
The group’s goals on trade are in direct opposition to President Trump’s economic nationalist agenda that has imposed tariffs on foreign imports from China, Canada, Europe, and other parts of the globe.
TechNet’s trade goals include reducing “tariff and non-tariff barriers to information, communications, and advanced energy technology products, services, and investments” as well as “protections for the free flow of data across borders…”
While Biden has vowed to flood the U.S. labor market with more foreign workers to compete against Americans for jobs, he has shied away from questions on whether he will eliminate tariffs on foreign imports that were imposed by Trump. Such elimination of tariffs would be a boon to multinational corporations that offshore their production and jobs overseas only to import their products back into the U.S. market, often with no penalties for doing so.

Democrats Push Green Card Giveaway for Fortune 500 Execs, Foreign Workers
House Democrats are working with a handful of Republican legislators to pass a visa bill that would supercharge the citizenship incentives for Indians and Chinese to take Fortune 500 white-collar careers from indebted American graduates.
The visa giveaway in the EAGLE Act of 2022 threatens the careers of many American graduates — including many graduates who once voted Republican but recently provided critical swing vote support for the Democrats in the 2022 election.
The act is also being debated even though the much-criticized backlog of migrant graduates has fallen sharply since 2020. The backlog fell because President Joe Biden’s deputies converted green cards for chain-migration families into green cards for Fortune 500 workers.
“FAIR firmly opposes the EAGLE Act (H.R. 3648),” says a statement from Joe Chatham, the senior government relations manager at the Federation for American Immigration Reform (FAIR). The statement says:
This bill undermines the fairness in our immigration system by creating a preference for workers from India and China at the expense of all other workers across the globe. It also eliminates diversity in the workers who come to the U.S. permanently. And, in the end, it would do nothing to reduce the line for employment-based green cards but would instead create more competition for American workers while lining the pockets of Big Tech.
The bill — which may be combined with another bill — is being backed by 83 sponsors in the House, led by Rep. Zoe Lofgren (D-CA), who represents many business interests in Silicon Valley.

Eight Republicans have cosponsored the bill, including the manager of the Republicans’ surprisingly narrow 2022 win, Rep. Tom Emmer (R-MN). Last week, Emmer narrowly beat Rep. Jim Banks (R-IN) for the job of GOP whip.

Rep. Don Bacon (R-NE), the co-leader of the Main Street Caucus, is also a supporter of the giveaway to the Fortune 500 and foreign graduates.
The other supporters include Rep. Larry Bucshon (R-IN), Rep. John Curtis (R-UT), Rep. Bill Johnson (R-OH), Rep. Pete Stauber (R-MN), and Rep. William Timmons (R-SC).
The support from heartland Republicans is ironic because the bill reduces incentives for investors in major coastal cities to hire graduates in Ohio, Indiana, Minnesota, or Nebraska.
Instead, investors can use the fast-track provisions in the EAGLE act to import and hire more cheap and compliant Indian and Chinese graduates for jobs in the investors’ coastal states. Without the ability to fly in foreign workers, investors would be under more labor-market pressure to put their investments in the heartland states.
Investors and the Fortune 500
The bill is strongly backed by business donors who want to recruit many more cheap foreign workers, even as many American graduates are being laid off by technology companies, including Twitter and Facebook.
Per-country caps have created extensive backlogs that leave immigrants and their families waiting years to receive their green cards simply because of their country of origin. This restricts their ability to work, travel, and contribute, and creates significant challenges for their families. It also makes the U.S. less attractive to global talent, hindering our competitiveness. Congress should pass per-country cap reform, like the bipartisan EAGLE Act, to ensure fairness and begin reducing the green card backlogs.
The coastal investors have pushed many bills to increase their use of foreign workers. This year, Midwest Senators blocked another proposed pipeline of foreign graduates.
The investors and their advocates prefer to focus on the bill’s removal of pro-diversity “country caps” in the annual award of 140,000 green cards to foreign employees of U.S-based companies.
But the bill also creates a “green card lite” which would allow foreign workers to get permanent work permits just two years after their employer approves them for a green card.
Both provisions will accelerate the legalization bonus award to Indian and Chinese workers. In turn, that acceleration will help Fortune 500 executives fill many more white-collar jobs with foreign workers via the uncapped, open-ended, unlimited Optional Practical Training (OPT) program.
The OPT program is a boon to universities because it allows them to offer work permits to foreign graduates who enroll in their courses. In turn, the program also provides Fortune 500 companies with a huge army of several hundred thousand eager, desperate, low-tax, and partially free foreign graduates each year. A three-judge panel in Washington D.C. recently declared that the OPT program is legal, even though it was created by President George Bush’s deputies — not by Congress — after Microsoft failed to expand the H-1B program.
Country Caps
Supporters of the bill prefer to focus on the country caps, not on the incentives for more foreign graduates to seek jobs in the United States.
The country caps were established to ensure that employer-provided green cards were distributed to people in many countries. These caps limit each country’s receipt of green cards to 7 percent of all the cards.
But the Fortune 500 and its networks of investors have ruthlessly imported more than roughly one million million cheap and compliant graduates by dangling the deferred-bonus carrot of U.S. citizenship. These workers are allowed to work in the United States via the H-1B, L-1, and H4EAD programs, and most expect to be allowed to request green cards after several years on the job.
The deferred bonus prize of citizenship is a huge incentive for foreign workers to work in the U.S., regardless of the waiting period.
The taxpayer-provided bonus is worth at least $1 million per work because it allows the foreign workers — plus some family members — and all of their children and grandchildren — to exit Asia and become Americans.
The value of that bonus is so large that it is greater than compensation paid to American workers — and it also costs the companies very little above the cost of applying for green cards.
The resulting crush of migrants has backlogged the green card process.
In March 2022, for example, 900,000 foreign workers and their families were waiting for green cards — even as U.S. employers ignored the growing army of underemployed Americans trained to do the jobs filled by foreign workers.
In turn, the backlog leaves roughly 400,000 Indian and Chinese graduates to work many years in white-collar jobs — often for subcontracting firms in the hourly jobs once were awarded to full-time, middle-class American employees. This huge pyramid of Fortune 500 subcontractors and sub-subcontractors ruthlessly exploit the green card workforce in so-called “body shops,” or “software sweatshops,” often via hidden kickbacks to foreign-born hiring managers.
This huge block of legalized labor is boosted by the contractors’ use of OPT graduates, foreign workers admitted as B-1/B-2 tourists and foreign graduates who overstayed their visas. These pyramid workers are forced to compete with each other for promotions into the H-1B or L-1 programs that are the gateways to citizenship.
The ruthless nature of the labor pyramids and the minimal federal oversight encourage widespread law-breaking, including discrimination and the imposition of Indian caste discrimination in U.S. workplaces.
For example, a contract worker named Aabha told Breitbart News that many Indian visa workers are taking several contract jobs and then inviting friends from India to do the extra work illegally:
[Indians are] taking four [contract] jobs each because everybody can take four jobs and outsource them to [Indian] people … They are calling people from India [to work in the U.S.] for six months because in those six months, they can make enough money. Then this person goes back, and then somebody else comes on a visitor’s [B1/B2 tourist] visa. He stays for six months, he does the job [illegally], and he goes back. … Because, of course, we are getting paid like $7,000 per month [for each contract], there is no harm in giving $2,000 to the [visiting] person who is actually doing the job, right?
These outsourcing and workplace conflicts have crippled many major companies, such as Intel, Boeing, and Theranos.
Opponents note that the bill will not reduce the backlog because it does not prevent the companies from hiring far more foreign workers than the annual supply of green cards.
“Even if the per-country caps are repealed for employment-based green cards, it will not reduce the backlog,” noted FAIR, adding:
Applications will continue to increase and the queue will grow.The only difference will be the distribution of the green cards. Under the EAGLE Act, the overwhelming majority of the recipients will be from India and China, and the rest of the world will be moved behind that backlog, which was caused by their monopolization of the H-1B program …In short, the EAGLE Act will wreck the employment-based immigration system for applicants from the rest of the world for the sole purpose of shifting more green cards to India and China.
…
Special interests will soon come back to Congress with demands to increase the H-1B cap or increase the cap on employment-based green cards—or both. Thiswould further accelerate the displacement of American tech workers, and undermine benefits of a tightening labor market for American workers. It could squeeze many Americans out of that market almost entirely.
Indians and Chinese
The direct beneficiaries of the EAGLE Act would be the 700,000 Indian migrants and their family members who are working while waiting many years for green cards. Roughly 100,000 Chinese white-collar workers also must wait while they work.
In addition, another 80,000 migrants from Central America are working in lower-wage jobs while they wait for the green-card payoff. For example, Abbyland Foods, Gerber Poultry, Peco Foods, and Select Dedicated Solutions reward migrant workers with government-provided green cards. This legal labor pipeline allows many CEOs to shave Americans’ wages, minimize investment in labor-saving technology, and divert consumer spending from heartland cities into Wall Street stock values.
India has the largest share of the workforce because India’s government works with American investors to maximize outsourcing to India. Many Chinese graduates are hired because China’s large population includes many very clever people
Advocates say the bill will free Indian and Chinese workers from the 7 percent country cap rule.
But the complex law includes many loopholes, nationals from those two countries soften often get green cards far above the so-called “country cap” of 7 percent. In 2022, for example, Indians likely received more than 120,000 cards or almost 100 percent of the usual annual number.
The 2022 rush of extra green cards allowed three or four years’ worth of Indian workers to get green cards and ended the Indian backlog for two of the three categories of employer green cards.
Those newly legalized Indian graduates are now free to compete against American workers and also to import more Indians for subcontracting contracts.
That inflow is good for employers but bad for Americans’ salaries. “Most college graduates have actually seen their real incomes stagnate or even decline” since 2000, New York Times columnist Paul Krugman wrote on April 29.
“For decades, lawmakers here in Washington have ignored the practice of replacing Americans with ‘temporary’ foreign workers,” said FAIR, which added:
The current employment green card system needs to be replaced by one that is merit-based, offering a reasonable number of green cards to highly qualified applicants. Instead of doing so, the EAGLE Act maintains the current dysfunctional system, doing nothing for American workers while further strengthening foreign workers’ place in the American labor force – it must be rejected.
For Republicans, “there’s clearly an electoral potential in blocking this bill,” said Mark Krikorian, the director of the Center for Immigration Studies:
Republicans should be blocking this bill because it hurts American workers … [and because liberal graduates] are being played for fools by big business. This would be funny if the consequences weren’t so harmful because progressivism now has now become a tool of capital.
Extraction Migration
Government officials try to grow the economy by raising exports, productivity, and the birth rate. But officials want rapid results, so they also try to expand the economy by extracting millions of migrants from poor countries to serve as extra workers, consumers, and renters.
Extraction Migration slows innovation and shrinks Americans’ productivity. This happens because migration allows employers to boost stock prices by using stoop labor and disposable workers instead of the skilled American professionals and productivity-boosting technology that earlier allowed Americans and their communities to earn more money.
Migration undermines employees’ workplace rights, and it widens the regional economic gaps between the Democrats’ cheap-labor coastal states and the Republicans’ heartland and southern states.
An economy fueled by Extraction Migration also drains Americans’ political clout over elites and it alienates young people. It radicalizes Americans’ democratic civic culture because it gives a moral excuse for wealthy elites and progressives to ignore despairing Americans at the bottom of society, such as drug addicts.
This diversify-and-rule investor strategy is enthusiastically pushed by progressives. They wish to transform the U.S. from a society governed by European-origin civic culture into an economic empire of jealous identity groups overseen by progressive hall monitors. “We’re trying to become the first multiracial, multi-ethnic superpower in the world,” Silicon Valley Rep. Rohit Khanna (D-CA) told the New York Times in March 2022. “It will be an extraordinary achievement … We will ultimately triumph,” he boasted.
But the progressives’ colonialism-like economic strategy kills many migrants. It exploits the poverty of migrants and splits foreign families as it extracts human resources from poor home countries to serve wealthy U.S. investors.
Progressives hide this Extraction Migration economic policy behind a wide variety of noble-sounding explanations and theatrical border security programs. Progressives claim the U.S. is a “Nation of Immigrants,” that economic migrants are political victims, that migration helps migrants more than Americans, and that the state must renew itself by replacing populations.
Similarly, establishment Republicans, media businesses, and major GOP donors hide the skew towards investors by ignoring the pocketbook impact and by touting border chaos, welfare spending, migrant crime, and drug smuggling.
