MY CORNER by Boyd Cathey
Immigration and Voting, Islamic Terror, and
the Marxist Effort to Transform America
Friends,
Several
bits of news came together this morning, and, so, we return to the topic of
immigration. First, there is the report of a government border agent brutally
murdered along the border with Mexico. The particulars are not yet known, but
the fact is that he was killed in a most horrendous manner that may well
indicate Mexican gang or drug cartel involvement. You will hear very little about
the circumstances or responsibility on CNN or MSNBC.
A
few days ago, on Monday, November 20, the United States Federal District Court
of Northern California struck down the president’s Executive Order withholding
federal funds from sanctuary cities (http://www.jurist.org/paperchase/2017/11/federal-judge-strikes-down-executive-order-to-withhold-funding-from-sanctuary-cities.php). And back
in late October an Obama-appointed judge in Hawaii struck down, for the third
time, President Trump’s latest travel ban for specifically-named countries. (https://www.usatoday.com/story/news/politics/2017/10/17/federal-judge-hawaii-strikes-down-trumps-third-travel-ban/773074001/ ) That is, he
struck down a ban aimed at countries where rampant Islamic terror and
instability demonstrate the incapacity of those countries to control their
domestic affairs and prevent potential terrorists from traveling to the United
States.
Add
to this the attempt by Democrats and Open Border advocates to sabotage the
appointed Presidential Advisory Commission of Electoral Integrity (PACEI). The
commission’s requests that states turn over election data have been met by
refusals from states dominated by the political Left (e.g., California,
Illinois). And Open Borders activist Ari Berman, has ominously warned on
National Public Radio (where else?!) that the commission’s work to eliminate
illegal voting, “could have a chilling effect on voting rights.” (https://www.npr.org/2017/05/17/528769195/trumps-election-integrity-commission-could-have-a-chilling-effect-on-voting-righ)
Got
that? Eliminating illegal voters from
the rolls could have a “chilling effect.” Or, in other words, halting illegal
voting might inhibit the Left from using hundreds of thousands—potentially
millions—of illegal immigrants, dead people and outright fraud a la Chicago under the late Mayor Daley,
to win elections and further the cultural Marxist effort to transform the
American political and cultural landscape by whatever means, legal or not.
Among
Republicans we behold the nauseating specter of far too many GOP solons in
Washington who with a wink-and-a-nod give succor to those who would keep our
national borders a leaky sieve that enables not only millions of illegals to
cross, but also implicitly reinforce ongoing radical change in the nation not
just economically, but culturally. Of course, their actual concern is
essentially to keep their international corporate supporters happy and a steady
supply of cheap immigrant workers coming into the United States. Whatever
feigned distress they express at the illegality and long range political and
cultural results involved is more than overshadowed by their absolute fealty to
their financial cash cows.
In
addition to Senators John McCain, Lindsay Graham, and Marco Rubio, among the
newer and more notable additions to this gang of “culture traitors” is North
Carolina’s junior United States Senator Thom Tillis. Tillis is pushing what he
calls a “compromise” “bipartisan”
immigration bill that would give “Dreamers” a path to citizenship and
essentially open the borders of the United States to millions of additional
immigrants by chain migration (of course, he denies that, but the import of his
proposed legislation in the United State Senate would permit exactly that). (https://www.politico.com/story/2017/10/10/senate-dreamers-immigration-tillis-243628)
Tillis
has a long career of supporting essentially open borders that began when he was
Speaker of the North Carolina House of Representatives, and he was known to
immigration patriots in the Tar Heel State as the “Speaker of the Chamber of
Commerce” and a shill for big corporate agri-business interests who stoutly
opposed restricting immigration, lest their supply of cheap unregulated labor
be diminished. About his proposal, Tillis is quoted by
POLITICO that “when you sit down and
you talk with left-of-center, reasonable
Democrats … then we have people that are having a difficult time opposing it
[my bill].” (Italics added)
The cited POLITICO
article comments:
“Tillis has emerged as a classic pro-business Republican when it comes
to immigration: He believes more workers from abroad help the economy and that
there are jobs Americans simply won’t do. He is open to a pathway to
citizenship for the broader population of 11 million undocumented immigrants [….]
“Tillis has made himself the ninth member of the Gang of Eight,” said
Mark Krikorian, executive director of the Center for Immigration Studies,
referring to senators who negotiated a comprehensive immigration bill in 2013.
“He is trying to make himself a player, but it’s really just putting a
Republican gloss on a Democratic policy.”
Running
for president, Donald Trump made halting illegal immigration and constructing a
“big, beautiful border wall,” centerpieces of his campaign. Since his
inauguration he has encountered one road-block after another, and not just from
the usual suspects on the far Left—the Chuck Schumers and Nancy Pelosis in
Congress and the Mainstream Media—but from Republican legislators like Thom
Tillis, who even went so far as to hold up President Trump’s nomination of Lee
Francis Cissna to head the US Citizenship and Immigration Services
administration until he could get a speeded-up review of additional H-2B visas.
This,
then, is the face of the opposition to this country gaining real and
substantial control of its borders…indeed, of its very future as a nation. Not
just the hard left--It is Republican senators like Thom Tillis, Lindsey Graham,
Jeff Flake, John McCain, Orrin Hatch, and James Lankford (Oklahoma) who
epitomize the swamp “creatures from the black lagoon” who, through their
actions and collaboration and subservience to the Deep State, enable the growth
and dominance of the malevolent Progressivist incubus and the eventual and
certain demise of the old Republic.
They
must be turned out of office, soundly rejected and defeated, for the sake of
our republic and for the future of our children.
