Talking about this little adventure:
“We need a total immigration moratorium and a complete ban on all African, Islamic, and Third World migration to this country forever.“ — Christian Heiens
Amen to that.
And I don’t care about how !raycissss! this sounds. What’s at stake is the future of our civilization and our national principles — and I’m not exaggerating, either.
I see that billionaire asshole Mark Zuckerberg is looking at property in Florida:
Mark Zuckerberg may soon be adding Miami to his ever-growing list of luxury addresses. According to people familiar with his plans, the Meta founder and his wife, Priscilla Chan, are exploring a home on Indian Creek Island—an ultra-exclusive, heavily guarded neighborhood often called “Billionaire Bunker”.
On the bright side, he’s not looking at Texas; he might have fit in quite well in Austin, although he might not be liberal enough for those assholes.
Chalk up one more score to the other liberal assholes in California, who are looking to tax billionaires into the poorhouse or something #WhoCares. According to the above article:
Chamath Palihapitiya [who he?] wrote on X: “With Zuck’s move to Florida, California’s total taxable wealth from billionaires has plummeted to well under $1T from over $2T just a few weeks ago.”
Yeah, it’s all fun and games to spout Commie propaganda and fund Commie organizations who in turn fund Commie activists in Minneapolis — until they turn on you… right, Zuck?
A pox on all their houses, including the ones in Florida.
Here’s a trend that I’m completely behind:
Ellen DeGeneres and her wife Portia de Rossi made a quick exit after Trump’s election victory and vowed to never return.
Ryan Gosling and his wife Eva Mendes also made the move alongside America Ferrera, who fled the US in search of the ‘best opportunities’ for her children in the UK.
Courtney Love and Minnie Driver have also made the move across the Atlantic since the election last year. [Driver is a Brit, so she doesn’t count.]
And of course there’s Rosie O’Donnell, who ended up in Northern Ireland.
The latest?
George Lucas has bought a huge £40 million mansion in London, joining a number of American liberal celebrities fleeing the US.
In what is likely to be one of the biggest residential buys in the UK this year, the Star Wars creator is set to move to St John’s Wood.
Yeah well fuck ’em all. The more of these assholes who GTFO, the purer the air Over Here becomes.
What’s going to be really interesting is when these “Trump refugees” come face to face with Britishland’s problems: skyrocketing crime, illegal immigrant flooding and, should they stay there long enough, HM’s voracious taxes.
Have fun Over There, assholes, and good bloody riddance.
The survey asked respondents, “What do you think should be done about immigrants who have entered the U.S. illegally, but have committed no crimes while here?”
Across the board, respondents are virtually split, as 41 percent said those illegal immigrants should be allowed to stay, while 40 percent believe they should be deported. Another 19 percent remain unsure.
Results drastically vary by party identification. Most Democrats, 68 percent, believe that those illegal immigrants should be allowed to stay in the country, and only ten percent said they should be deported. Another 22 percent remain unsure.
Nearly three-quarters of Republicans, 72 percent, believe those illegal immigrants should be deported, while 14 percent said they should be allowed to stay, and 15 percent remain unsure.
A plurality of independents, 42 percent, believe those illegal immigrants should be able to stay in the country, followed by 38 percent who believe they should be deported and 20 percent who remain unsure.
In the past, I’ve always been in the hardass camp — break the law, no matter when, and out you go.
However, I’ve recently softened my stance on this, after asking myself a question:
What if someone came over here (granted, illegally), but has over the years become a model “citizen”, working hard, paying taxes, maybe even raising a family. Should the heavy boot of the State be applied to his (or her) ass?
If you consider the question then the key, I think, is in the phrase “over the years”. In other words, how many years?
Here’s my thought. Assume that the person came over at age 24. Now, twenty years later, they’re in their mid forties: spouse, kids in high school, working hard in a decent job, and most importantly, never convicted of any serious crime — not even drunk driving. In other words, the person has proven themselves to be a decent member of society, and in fact, perhaps a better “citizen” than many a native-born citizen who lives on welfare, has been a general fuckup and definitely not someone you’d want to see marry your own son or daughter.
It’s even more compelling should the illegal immigrant have come over at age 40 and is now facing retirement. Who’s want to deport a sixty-year-old back to a country they’ve not seen since their youth?
Unfortunately, however, all bets are off if this illegal immigrant has used forged documents (SocSec card, driver’s license etc.) to enable them to have worked here all that time. That’s a criminal act — forgery — right there.
The question is: how have they managed to live and work here without such documents? The answer, regrettably, is that they probably couldn’t have, unless their employer has been incredibly lax or else has deliberately turned a blind eye to their status.
I have to tell you all, though: the thought of tossing someone out after they’ve lived here for twenty years, worked hard and tried their best to stay on the right side of the law… that tossing out seems pretty harsh to me.
You will note that I’ve used the period of twenty years as a cut-off point. I wouldn’t accept less than twenty, and the higher the number (25, 30 or 40 years), the greater I’m inclined towards leniency.
So, for the purposes of this argument, you can put me in that “Republican: 15% Unsure” category.
Comments are welcome.
Just when you thought the illegal immigration reversal couldn’t get any better:
What’s next: immigration checkpoints at Publix and Kroger entrances? [chorus of “Yes!” “Yes!” “Do it!”]
Any more like this, and I’ll be forced to take up smoking.
Seen at Twitter* (via Insty):
Ahem. Having been through the (legal) immigration process myself, and most recently with New Wife, I can attest that the question involving prior membership of the Communist Party or similar organizations is still very much part of the interrogatory, and has been since the early 1950s.
So to say it has “no prior precedent in immigration law” is, like so many utterances from the Left, a bald fucking lie.
All that the Trumpist USCIS is doing now is broadening the scope to bring such charming little fads like jihad and terrorsymp into the conversation. And about damn time, too.
*All Elon’s rebranding efforts to the contrary, it will always be Twitter to me. Screw that “X” nonsense.
