Well done. More people are noticing the NYT gaslighting cycle. No it’s not happening, it’s happening but it’s rare, you’re a bad person if you notice that it’s happening, it’s happening a lot and it’s a good thing. All cultures are equal, diversity is our greatest strength, America has magic dirt that automatically assimilates people from a disfunctional low-trust society.
When you're an ethnically homogenous nation, you can tell yourself all sorts of mad stories about how you're in fact a credal nation, a civic nation, how ethnicity doesn't matter. We're now finding out that this might not actually be true.
And as everyone should know by now from various real news stories of murders, rapes, robberies, drug busts, pedo busts, etc the character of the illegals from Biden years is below the lowest of the low. Actually that applies to 99% of the illegals going back a couple decades or more.
If it so happens that a particular country or countries is highly represented in these foul and criminal illegal aliens, that's on them and their country, not on the people demanding good character and proper legal process. It certainly doesn't speak well for that country in general which in turn validates blocking entrants from that country.
That's not racism either, that's "characterism" - a demand for good character. Characterism has no color and no nationality.
💯. To ensure that people come for right reasons only, stop any government-paid freebies to illegals, remove refugee status for any violations, including misdemeanors and non-compliance, limit refugee benefits to only disabled and elderly, stop birthright citizenship to illegals, require both parents to be in the country legally.
Birthright citizenship is not guaranteed by the constitution. It's something that some judge came up with, and said it was in the constitution. It's not.
Excellent reporting....now comes the violence, the expansion of no-go zones, etc. It's happening everywhere else. No reason why it won't happen here. We are fools,
In order to actually reverse this madness and prevent its continuing destruction of our country, the family unification provisions of immigration law need to be revised in order to end chain migration. And the national origin provisions of our laws, erased by Senator Kennedy's 1965 immigration bill, need to be reinstated. These will not be fun debates, but necessary to preserving what is left of our country. We have a right to bring in people who are compatible with our values, and who won't become public charges the minute they arrive.
Chris, Good work. I appreciate your ability and willingness to cover sensitive issues with the balance, analysis, and diverse thought necessary to make your pieces persuasive rather than purely provocative.
I have one request. Do not use the term "Rust Belt" again. It is derogatory and alienates a large part of the country. Fly-Over Country is equally bad. Mid-west is just fine. Heartland works as well. Better to acknowledge the hard-working American families in the center of the country than insult them.
Well said, Mark! Heartland is my choice, and I'm not even a native. It's in the middle of the country--its heart, and its spacious lands feed multitudes.
What underlies this appalling story is the great cancerous bureaucratic/lawfaring Blob that we in the West have allowed to grow undercover of our supposedly democratic system. "Its bogus virtue-signalling vanities our culture has mislabelled as an excess of caring and compassion. During the course of my lifetime, the worst censure these people have generally faced (at least until recently) is being viewed as a bit irritatingly ‘do-gooding’. Their psychological motivation has tended to be misdiagnosed as one of good intentions...if sometimes taken too far. But more often than not it is in fact nothing of the sort. It is more truly an amalgam of holier-than-thou narcissism, selective outrage and in-crowd groupthink. These people – and they now number in the millions - have had an incredibly lucky run in recent decades, given the harm they have done. A large proportion of them are graduate professionals making a comfortable living from sucking (either directly or indirectly) on the public teat. All the while doing all they can to pick apart the culture that both sustains and funds them. It would be impossible to prove, of course, but I have read, down the years, reasonably plausible citings of evidence that real, personal acts of generosity is something actually more to be found amongst people who lean conservative Right than amongst Progressives." https://grahamcunningham.substack.com/p/awful-people
20 years?…au contraire. recall when Pres Carter allowed Cuba to empty its prisons and send them to the US under cover of the Mariana Boat Lift. (Poor gullible Jimmy, the road to hell is paved with “ProgLib” intentions).
it was the semi-debacle that Pres Clinton fomented in Somalia (Blackhawk Down) in the cause of peace keeping that this particular cultural felony originates from. There was not then, and there isn’t now a valid rationale for importing the detritus of the Horn of Africa to a country (to include the EU) that is at the other end of a spectrum representing Western Culture and its basis in national values.
As always, Chris, excellent reporting. High time these and so many other flagrant violations perpetrated by illegal (and some legal) immigrants were brought to light. Thank you and your colleagues for this valuable service.
CIA subsidized immigration of third world cultures - a journalist could make a career on various aspects of this mess. Then you could become rich suing liberal media for misrepresentation and slander. The progressive gift that keeps on giving.
Well done most definitely. I've been following many of your stories since 2021 when you did a story on Raytheon regarding DEI for which I was presenting working. I retired at that point when they were forcing COVID-19 shots. I pushed your article on DEI to the President of Raytheon for which I felt strongly about. He was nevertheless not pleased but you're story was the absolute truth. Thank you for so many profound articles.
All this while Walz was more interested in installing tampon dispensers in boys restrooms. Additionally, this is simply one more proof point that diversity is not necessarily a strength, and in cases of significant cultural misalignment, it is disruptive and dangerous.
While I agree in principle with your comment. However the Islamization of the west is an exponentially greater threat, if not the greatest threat, to the west than Cuban criminals.
Why isn’t ICE actively identifying every illegal immigrant that is getting public aid and deporting them? (I know many of the Somalians were legal, but the point stands).
California, for example, is giving MediCal to millions of illegals. Intentionally! Time to send them home.
The Left lives by myths and wishful thinking. When their narratives come up against a hard reality, they experience cognitive dissonance. To resolve the discomfort of cognitive dissonance they reject reality and stick with the narrative. The fact that real world experience has demonstrated their multi-culti narrative is untrue and even dangerous to the host country will mean nothing to it. It is more likely they'll demand more third world immigration than give up their delusional mass immigration project.

But Character Does.

Great reporting and congrats on hitting the stratosphere. You continue to be one of the few lights in an otherwise bleak media landscape.

Yet another episode that proves multiculturalism and globalism undermine and bring down host cultures.

Great reporting and true on all counts regarding not all cultures being the same.
However, and in no way is this meant to be a criticism. The point of incompatibility is 20 years too late in the US and decades longer in Europe.
Yes I agree with Steve B, 20 years too late, Europe is lost America is close. I am Canadian, Canada is well and truly gone.

@M- yes. My BIL, his parents, and siblings- all who escaped Cuba in '63- were ABHORRED when that happened.

I would have used "grift".
It is not racist to identify fraudsters who happen to be “black or brown,” yet that is what huckster Ilhan Omar and so many liberals hide behind.
Send them all back to Somalia. And no welfare for any immigrants who come here. You must pay your own way.
Walz must go. Along with his AG. And crooked NGO’s.

Not just MediCal. Free legal assistance, food, housing, cash etc. Now they want a new wealth tax to cover abysmal budget gap.
