Obamas Construct New Cages At Martha’s Vineyard To Hold Arriving Migrants

MARTHA’S VINEYARD, MA — In the wake of the arrival of scores of migrants on the island, Barack & Michelle Obama gave orders to their staff to immediately begin construction of new cages to house the influx of foreign nationals at their luxurious Matha’s Vineyard estate.

“It’s a tried and true method that we’ve had success with in the past,” President Obama was overheard telling the construction crew. “We want to make these incoming migrants feel just as welcome as the hundreds of thousands of migrants crossing the southern border, which means they will be kept in cages built by me, obviously.”

Though the wealthy Martha’s Vineyard population seemed troubled to suddenly have to deal with the type of problems normally reserved for the common folk of the United States, the Obamas welcomed the opportunity to have more cheap labor around their palatial grounds. “It’s so hard to find good help these days,” Michelle Obama sighed during her morning inspection of the landscaping. “Having a regular influx of house servants may actually work in our favor.”

Some of the Obama staff privately expressed security concerns about the incoming migrants, but the former president put them at ease by reminding them that he can order a deadly drone strike at any moment.

At publishing time, other Martha’s Vineyard residents who heard about the construction of the cages were already raising questions about potential human rights violations and preemptively placing the blame for the cages squarely on the shoulders of Donald Trump.

Life For Border Ranchers: Assaulted, Dogs Beaten, Fences Destroyed, Dead Bodies, by Charlotte Cuthbertson

Posted on September 13, 2022 | Leave a comment

Illegal aliens are destroying the livelihoods of ranchers and farmers in South Texas. From Charlotte Cuthbertson at The Epoch Times via zerohedge.com:

Ranchers along the south Texas border are having their livelihoods crushed by the volume of illegal aliens trampling through their properties, assaulting and threatening them, beating their dogs, cutting fences, destroying water lines, and breaking into their homes.

Some have moved their families off the property for safety and ranch managers are quitting their jobs.

One rancher has found 17 dead bodies on his property this year, and on three occasions he had his young children with him.

“How am I supposed to explain to a young child what a dead body is doing there, rotting, just laying there?” rancher and wildlife biologist Ben Binnion said in front of the Texas Senate Committee on Border Security in Eagle Pass, Texas, on Aug. 10.

“My kids shouldn’t have to see that, especially on private property.”

Binnion manages about 150,000 acres of ranchland, which is mainly used for recreation hunting, 10 miles off the U.S.–Mexico border.

Nine years ago, when he first moved to the Maverick County ranch, he said Border Patrol apprehended 37 illegal aliens on his property during the year. Right now, he sees an average of 200 illegal aliens per night on the cameras he’s personally set up.

New York Housing Plan For Illegal Migrants Bused From Texas Falls Apart, by Tyler Durden

Posted on September 4, 2022 | 1 comment

Illegal immigrants are fine, as long as they stay away from your city. The hypocrisy of New York and Washington D.C. elites is astounding. From Tyler Durden at zerohedge.com:

New York is struggling to come up with a plan to deal with thousands of illegal immigrants being bused in from Texas, and the costs are starting to pile up.  It’s another interesting development in the ongoing saga of the reverse Cloward-Piven strategy being used against open-border progressives in New York and Washington DC.  So far, the tactic appears to be working.

The obvious irony of the situation is that leftist elites have long demanded that southern border states like Texas ignore constitutional laws on citizenship and take on the job of processing, feeding, housing and transporting millions of illegal immigrants every year (well beyond the efforts of federal border patrol) while New York can’t even handle 6000 of them.

Currently, costs for the ongoing surge in migrants bused into NYC are estimated at around $300 million.  This is not accounting for the city’s plans to create a large processing center next to a hotel or housing facility designed to accommodate thousands of people at a time.  New York’s Department of Homeless Services has been struggling to stay afloat and the so far their plans to open the processing center have fallen apart according to officials.

Texas Buses Illegal Immigrants To Chicago And Oh No They’ve All Been Shot

Posted on September 1, 2022 | 1 comment

From The Babylon Bee:

Article Image

HOUSTON, TX — Governor Abbott has responded to the ongoing border crisis by bussing illegal immigrants to other parts of the country to see how they like it. The only problem is Abbott made the mistake of bussing some of them to Chicago and everyone has now been shot.

“I’ve made a huge mistake,” said Governor Abbott as the bullet-ridden bus returned to Texas moments before the engine gave out for good. “I just wanted other Governors to take the issue more seriously as they too had to share in the socioeconomic strain the border crisis puts on us. But why oh why did we send a bus to Chicago?! Forgive me!”

According to sources, the bus driver was the sole survivor from the less than 10-minute excursion into the city of Chigaco. “Look I’ve been to Chigaco before and I know you have to come prepared,” said the bus driver, Doug McDaniels, wearing a full set of SWAT body armor. “The craziest thing about it was that this trip was actually just a mild gunfire day. Normally I have to call for a rooftop helicopter evac just to escape the city.”

Governor Abbott has been heavily criticized by the media for his reckless decision to send the helpless immigrants to an active warzone where they were immediately gunned down. Mayor Lori Lightfoot on the other hand was celebrated for her commitment to making all of Chicago one giant policeless and lawless safe space with gun violence equity for all races.

At publishing time, another bus returned to Texas from Los Angeles with the news that everyone on the bus had contracted Monkeypox and been stabbed by the homeless before ultimately dying from fentanyl exposure.

Sanctuary City Mayors Cry ‘Uncle,’ No More Migrants! By Joe Guzzardi

Posted on August 23, 2022 | 2 comments

Liberal virtue runs, once again, into reality. From Joe Guzzardi at progressivesforimmigrationreform.org:

Sanctuary cities are once again in the headlines. But this time, sanctuary cities, the bane of immigration law enforcement advocates, have a different spin. Since five-time deported illegal immigrant Jose Inez Garcia-Zarate murdered Kate Steinle in July 2015 on Pier 14 in San Francisco, state and city governments have persisted in welcoming illegal aliens and protecting them from Immigration and Customs Enforcement. San Francisco is a sanctuary city in the sanctuary state of California.

Despite a federal immigration detention request to hold Garcia-Zarate so immigration officials could take him into custody, San Francisco authorities freed the seven-time convicted felon just three months before he killed Steinle. Eventually, Garcia-Zarate was acquitted and sentenced to time served on an illegal firearms possession charge.

Between January 2014 and September 2015, the Center for Immigration Studies reported that sanctuary jurisdictions rejected 17,000 ICE detainer requests – 17,000 individuals who should have been deported but remained to potentially pose criminal risk to U.S. citizens. Claiming that migrants are fleeing poverty and persecution, local leaders have been willing to spend their constituents’ taxpayer dollars on affirmative benefits for the newly arrived illegal immigrants.

Bowser Breaks: Diversity-Loving Washington DC Mayor Calls For Drastic Measure To Deal With Illegal Immigrants, by Jordan Case

Posted on August 14, 2022 | 2 comments

Suddenly illegal immigration is a problem for the mayors of Washington, D.C. and New York. Let’s hope Governors Abbot and DeSantis will spread this “problem” to more Democrat-controlled cities. From Jordan Case at thebluestateconservative.com:

Governors in states along our southern border have been vocal in their concerns regarding illegal immigration for years. Their school and health care systems can’t handle the additional workload, they explained. The financial burden placed on their taxpayers was excessive and unfair, they shouted. And the fact that such migrants were entering their states unvetted posed a serious threat to the health and security of their communities, they complained.

But government officials elsewhere in the country, particularly in our federal government and in blue cities such as New York and Washington D.C., dismissed the pleas from governors such as Greg Abbott in Texas and Doug Ducey in Arizona. Both Ducey and Abbott are, after all, Republicans; and Republicans just don’t like the brown people that come across their border with Mexico. They’re just whining bigots, that’s all.

Then this past April, both Abbott and Ducey had had enough. The Biden Administration’s hands-off policies and refusals to secure our border were overwhelming law enforcement in their states as well as virtually every other public service offering from their governments. So, Abbott and Ducey took matters into their own hands.

They’ve Learned Nothing and Forgotten Nothing, by Ann Coulter

Posted on June 23, 2022 | Leave a comment

A lot of voters still care deeply about illegal immigration. Maybe one day Trump and the rest of the Republicans will figure it out . . . but don’t hold your breath. From Ann Coulter at townhall.com (I don’t share her opinion of Bill Barr):

They've Learned Nothing and Forgotten Nothing

Source: Michael Reynolds/Pool via AP

Bill Barr, two-time attorney general and one of approximately 2.5 members of the Trump administration to leave with his reputation intact, has also written one of only two books about that administration worth reading, “One Damn Thing After Another.” I’ve read ’em all. At least partially. Most did not merit more than a quick skim.

[For those interested, the other book about the Trump administration worth reading is Michael Wolfe’s “Fire and Fury,” but judging by its sales, you probably already have this book.]

I’ve been a fan of Barr’s since long before he worked for Trump, and was thrilled when he became Trump’s A.G. But when I got to Barr’s description of Trump’s appeal — which went on for pages and pages! — I wanted to throw the book out the window. You can probably guess where I’m headed.

By Barr’s lights, none of Trump’s positives involved … immigration.

They will not learn. No matter what we do, no matter how many times Americans tell pollsters they want less immigration, no matter how loudly we beg Washington to halt the endless flow of the third world into our country, the ruling class refuses to listen.

Choosing Your Immigrants, by Jeff Thomas

Posted on June 20, 2022 | Leave a comment

The immigrants who built America in the 1800s were much better people than the people crossing our borders and slurping up our benefits today. From Jeff Thomas at internationalman.com:

In the 18th century, America was made up primarily of people who, of necessity, had had to work hard. Had they not taken full responsibility for their own welfare, there was no one else to do it for them and they would have starved. As this was the case, anyone who did arrive on American shores who was unwilling to work and wanted others to provide for him, could expect to find no sympathy and might well starve.

In the 19th century, the former colonies had become the United States. Expansion was underway and the young people of the 18th century became the entrepreneurs of the 19th century. In order to continue to get the menial tasks accomplished, millions of immigrants were needed. Those who were welcomed were those who were prepared to start at the bottom, often live in poor conditions, receive no entitlements and compete for even menial jobs. If they accepted these terms, they received the opportunity to immigrate and work.

Also, in the 19th century, the US expanded to the West coast, covered the nation with railroads and created the industrial revolution – the greatest period of expansion in US history.

In the 20th century, income tax was implemented, the Federal Reserve took over the dollar and the “New Deal” Introduced the concept of entitlement. It was a mixed century of wealth generated by the industrial revolution, fighting against the new concept of entitlement.

The Mexican Border, by William Gudal

Posted on June 20, 2022 | Leave a comment

An article from SLL reader William Gudal.

I have a solution for the crisis at the U.S.-Mexico border. Before I reveal the solution, there needs to be some base lining between us so that we can move forward in a common discussion. First, do you agree that the complete open border is a greater threat to the people of the United States than the Russian military action in Ukraine and Crimea? Do you agree that the $40 billion being spent on another U.S. military fiasco, this time in Ukraine, could be better spent on the Southern border? Do you agree that virtually nothing good comes from south of the border, from a “country” that is a failed state with no functioning federal or state governments? Do you agree that at present the international border between Mexico and the United States has evaporated into thin air and that the border no longer exists? Do you agree the unprecedented, unchecked numbers of people flooding across the Mexican border from all over the world are incubating nothing but trouble?

If we’re in agreement on all that, then there is a solution. One hundred miles into Mexico the United States will build a reception depot on Mexican soil. All persons crossing the border, except at authorized controlled entry ports, will be taken into custody and within 24 hours transported to the reception depot, given a week’s food and water, and released. The concept of asylum applies to less than 0.1% of those transported and arrangements will be made at the reception depot to deal with the tiny few who fall into a possible asylum category. This a humane way to reassert the right of the United States to maintain itself as a sovereign nation and to reject the assault from the one-world-government terrorists.

The Criminal Order Beneath the ‘Chaos’ of San Francisco’s Tenderloin, by Leighton Woodhouse

Posted on June 20, 2022 | Leave a comment

There is an order to the carnage of San Francisco’s Tenderloin, but nobody seems interested in disrupting that order. From Leighton Woodhouse at realclearinvestigations:

The epicenter of the political earthquakes rattling San Francisco’s progressive establishment is a 30-square-block neighborhood in the center of downtown known as the Tenderloin. Adjacent to some of the city’s most famous attractions, including the high-end shopping district Union Square, the old money redoubt of Nob Hill, historic Chinatown, and the city’s gold-capped City Hall, it is home to a giant, open-air drug bazaar. Tents fill the sidewalks. Addicts sit on curbs and lean against walls, nodding off to their fentanyl and heroin fixes, or wander around in meth-induced psychotic states. Drug dealers stake out their turf and sell in broad daylight, while the immigrant families in the five-story, pre-war apartment buildings shepherd their kids to school, trying to maintain as normal an existence as they can.

“If you happen to be walking through the Tenderloin and you feel unsafe, imagine what it feels like to live there,” said Joel Engardio, head of Stop Crime SF, a civilian public safety group. “The Tenderloin has one of the largest percentages of children in the city. It’s untenable, inexcusable to ask them to confront this hellscape.”

“The Tenderloin is out of control,” said Tom Ostly, a former San Francisco prosecutor who used to work there and lives nearby. “It has never been worse than it is now.”
