Guest Post by Joe Guzzardi
In one of her final appearances before the Senate Homeland Security and Governmental Affairs Committee, former DHS Secretary Kirstjen Nielsen concluded her testimony by saying that no sane nation would ever devise an immigration system as dysfunctional as that of the United States.
The unsuccessful and ultimately fired Nielsen could have been referring to any of dozens of immigration failures that have grown more pronounced over years of congressional indifference. They include the refusal by Congress to pass mandatory E-Verify, and thereby protect U.S. jobs; the continued issuance of countless employment-based visas, including the H-1B and L-1 visas, as well as the Optional Practical Training program, that displace American workers and F-1 student visa abuse. Congress also has ignored the travesty of birthright citizenship, has retained population-busting chain migration and maintained Temporary Protected Status on an automatic rollover which makes it quasi-permanent.
Or Nielsen may have been thinking about the multiple illegal alien amnesties that included lifelong valid employment authorization documents and encouraged more unlawful entry, abandoning interior enforcement, the decades-long refusal to adequately secure the border, and allowing the asylum loopholes to remain wide open.
Nielsen’s congressional appearance came during one of the now-frequent Central American border surges, but before more than 500 African migrants arrived, an event that underscores the fiasco that is U.S. immigration policy.
Knowing full well that if they could merely get to the U.S.-Mexico border, they would be admitted, the African migrants, families and individuals, mostly from Angola, Cameroon and the Republic of Congo, traveled nearly 8,000 miles, enduring as many as four months of travel before arriving at El Paso, Texas. U.S. Customs and Border Protection called the latest surge “a dramatic rise” in African migration that contributes to the overall border crisis.
The migrants’ stories don’t end now that they’ve successfully entered the U.S. In fact, their tales are just beginning. Perhaps because advocacy groups have asked the migrants to remain quiet or possibly because of language challenges, few details about their future plans are known. What’s certain, however, is that they’re headed for the interior where it will become the responsibility of local municipalities, at least initially, to provide resources to them. Over the longer haul, taxpayers will fund public education, health care and affirmative benefits. Once asylum-seeking migrants qualify for work permits, a few months at the most, they’ll enter the labor market to compete with low-skilled Americans for scarce jobs.
Congress consistently rejects evaluating the long-term consequences of its immigration failures. Working toward a sustainable America should be a priority of Congress. The U.S. Census Bureau predicts that an immigration-driven population increase will, by 2060, bring the nation’s total residency to 404 million from today’s 329 million.
The Census Bureau issued its projections before the border surges began in earnest, and it will ultimately revise its forecasts upward. Consider that in Angola the 2017 birth rate per 1,000 persons was 41.3; in Cameroon, 35.8 and the Republic of Congo, 41.7, versus the United States at 12.4.
Doubtless, the African migrants’ success stories have spanned the globe, serving as an inspiration to thousands of others who are considering undertaking the journey. Prospective migrants know that in the end, the U.S. federal government will reward them with permanent residency, and much more.
But imagine if Congress sent a different message – that only valid, verifiable asylum claims would be considered. Other claims, along with unlawfully present aliens not pursuing asylum, would be rejected. Fewer migrants would gamble that they would be allowed U.S. entry. Then, and only then, could the U.S. begin to get a grip on its willy-nilly immigration system.

“The unsuccessful and ultimately fired Nielsen”. I have no idea of the job she actually did but to think anybody could be successful in that position has some brains of shite’.
As far as I’m concerned asylum needs to end too, the only exception I can think of it for the South African Boers. America needs no more legal or illegal black or brown people.
No illegal aliens period. A complete immigration moratorium for 40 years would be a very good start.
Way too late for the border…thousands of illegals cross daily, not hundreds, thousands, EVERY SINGLE DAY….3,600 were rounded up in three days in Texas alone. Add that to the hundred plus millions already here and you have an invasion. The invaders are getting benefits, they get free health care courtesy of hospital emergency rooms where they go for any and all ailments and walk out knowing they’re not going to pay for those services. Go to Parkland hospital in Dallas, look in their emergency waiting room, it is the third world writ large. Parkland is a county hospital and property owners are paying for medical care for illegals. It is the same everywhere. How long can this be afforded?
They birth a baby and get all the child support bennies, each baby is another pay check. Those babies get free medical courtesy of the taxpayers. Many of the illegals have a home in the country they left and they send money home, they support a second home in their country of origin. California will spend billions supporting illegals while thousands of citizens languish on the streets, no mental care for those folk, hell, lots of Americans don’t have health insurance because they can’t afford it and they WILL be charged if they go to an emergency room.
then you get the diseases….and that’s a whole nother story…..got ebola?
Ebola shuts it all down. As soon as that rolls in the suburban wives will forget all about drown brown people.
Ebola will be the game changer.
By then it will be too late. It might already be too late.
White Genocide is real…
There’s nothing worse than a POTUS that is a white anti-white.
And the ironic thing about it is, all this border crisis is happening with Donald Trump’s blessing.
Reminds me of when W Bush doubled the Federal budget, after promising to be fiscally conservative.
Hey guys, this is somewhat OT but I have been watching in SA (Brazil specifically) the current/ongoing Dengue Fever outbreak, which HAS A HEMORRHAGIC component in a small number of cases – and this is what I found – between 1986 and 2015, the most fatalities registered was just under 1000 cases for the year:
Well, in a story from 6/26/19, a province in Brazil reported 1500 cases in a week
https://noticias.r7.com/minas-gerais/minas-registra-quase-1500-novos-casos-de-dengue-em-uma-semana-26062019
and in the entire nation of Brazil,
“A report published Friday said 366 people died from the mosquito-borne disease from Dec. 30 through June 8.
It also reported a total of 1.1 million probable dengue cases, representing a 561% increase from the first six months of 2018. An estimated 600,000 of those cases are confirmed.”
https://www.wtvq.com/2019/06/24/brazil-says-deaths-from-dengue-up-163-in-first-half-of-year/
The same story indicates that reported deaths are UP 163 percent for the year, and in Brazil, it is WINTER.
Two issues: First, in 2016 there was a big hubbub about a company called OXITEC releasing GMO mosquitoes into Brazil to fight Zika, Dengue, and Chikungunya virus:
https://www.sciencemag.org/news/2016/10/brazil-will-release-billions-lab-grown-mosquitoes-combat-infectious-disease-will-it
Problem was, the subsequent outbreak of Zika overlaid almost too well with the areas where “they” released the mosquitoes:
https://theantimedia.com/zika-outbreak-epicenter-in-same-area-where-gm-mosquitoes-were-released-in-2015/
and
Second, a UK firm discovered information via FOIA that numbers of female mosquitoes actually INCREASED after the release of the GMO “male” variants (see section 2):
and
and what is scary about that, according to the Atlantic, is:
“In less than a year, from one female Aedes aegypti, you can wind up with a billion progeny. . . .”
https://www.theatlantic.com/technology/archive/2016/04/genetically-modified-mosquitoes-zika/479793/
AND it is the females which bite; the males are for breeding purposes only (the original cuck, I guess).
SO . . . here is my “theory” or “worry” or “concern” – we have unprecedented flooding in the midwest, parts of the northeast, and the midsouth; I’m in Kentucky and omg the rain we have received this year is incredible. Which means, in the heart of the country, we have a LOT of standing water.
Now, mosquitoes do not inject blood when they bite; they inject saliva.
https://www.sciencemag.org/news/2016/06/mosquito-spit-helps-viruses-make-us-sick
So there is no evidence to support that AIDS or any bloodborne pathogen can be transmitted by mosquitoes. Yet. BUT . . .
WHAT IF we begin to see “dengue” in the United States, and
WHAT IF it is not Dengue at all,
BUT . . . Ebola?
The initial symptoms are, well, read for yourself:
Symptoms of EVD can be sudden and include:
Fever
Fatigue
Muscle pain
Headache
Sore throat
Vomiting
Diarrhoea
Rash
Symptoms of impaired kidney and liver function
https://www.who.int/news-room/fact-sheets/detail/ebola-virus-disease
Dengue should be suspected when a high fever (40°C/104°F) is accompanied by 2 of the following symptoms:
severe headache,
pain behind the eyes,
muscle and joint pains,
nausea,
vomiting,
swollen glands or rash
Severe dengue . . . :
plasma leaking,
fluid accumulation,
respiratory distress,
severe bleeding, or
organ impairment.
Warning signs occur 3–7 days after the first symptoms in conjunction with a decrease in temperature (below 38°C/100°F) and include:
severe abdominal pain,
persistent vomiting,
rapid breathing,
bleeding gums,
fatigue,
restlessness and
blood in vomit.
https://www.who.int/news-room/fact-sheets/detail/dengue-and-severe-dengue
MY POINT: Ebola and Dengue are very hard to tell apart.
Thanks for your patience
Very informative. Merci beaucoup.
This is Democrat treason; a planned ongoing invasion; it is a Democrat take over of America using illegals. This will turn America into a Communist Democrat Shit Hole.
Agreed. Then why the fuck are the Republicans turning a blind eye? Wouldn’t you think they would see their own demise with all these eventual Democratic voters??
99% of Republicans are RINO.
Republicans in office know they won’t have to live with their treason. They think they will be dead. Also they are getting paid lots of money to sell us out especially by these Jew God-damned Bastards. You look who is standing behind this and it’s Jews but the cowards in Washington DC will do nothing. Trump knows who is behind this but his fucking daughter is married to one.
These treasonous son of a bitches know the only thing standing in the way of a Jew New World Order is a United white people. This why they are doing their best to destroy us . The Jews are going to get their Messiah and I hope he kills ever one of them.
Trump was our last chance. He turned out to be nothing but another lying piece of shit at least on immigration which was/ is the most dangerous situation facing white people. Trump doesn’t deserve to be in the white house . A man I once admired I now hate . He is one on them – the enemy .There’s a chance he will lose in 2020 because of immigration . Alot of whites like myself will just stay at home .Then all hell breaks loose across America. Maybe just maybe white people will wake the fuck up. If not this country deserves to be destroyed. We deserve the genocide heading our that most white people refuse to see. They will soon see but by then it will be too late. I don’t know who I hate more . These God damn Jews or the God damn white people who refuse to see what’s right in their faces.
Oh c’mon BB, don’t hold back. Tell us how you REALLY feel!!!
Oogha Boogha, they breed like rabbits when dey get da freebies….. Africa coming to a municipality near you and soon….. Better be making plans to jump ship, to where I don’t know, other than Russia or eastern Europe, because the next negro president we have is going to clamp down on his jungle bunnies and turn this into a 3rd world hell hole…. You ain’t seen nothing yet…..
Then our only hope is to destroy the electric grid. Without electricity these jungle bunnies will starve to death. It will be hell on white people but do we not deserve hell. We have used up every bit of the spiritual , religious ,historical and financial capital our elders stored up for us. We are living on nothing but debt and delusion. We should be destroyed for what we have let happen.
I wonder how many of all the thousands who are commenting and discussing immigration have actually dealt with immigration personally as an immigrant and have any idea what it is like to be “on the other side” of the story. I have. 12 years and $15,000 later, I became a citizen. I even had to teach my attorney on which law to apply.
The system is utterly corrupt and doesn’t care what laws are made in Congress.
On the other hand, I would like to ask: WHO is organizing and financing the immigration avalanche that is solemnly designed to destabilize not only overrun US but also Europe?
