Replacement Migration?

Recently many people have been pondering the question of whether or not there is ongoing a “replacement migration” of native peoples in first-world countries by the great global powers.  What we do know for sure is that in the United States, Canada, Australia, and Western Europe there is an organized and coordinated plan of mass immigration with which all of the global “elites” (i.e., “the powers that be” (hereafter TPTB) that run the world and our countries) are in agreement.  Even Japan now has accepted this policy of mass immigration.

What is the purpose?

Many white people are now unsettled with the fear that the motivation is to get rid of whites altogether.  The explanation is this:  white people, in general, are difficult to control because they have certain historical expectations of freedoms and rights:  to labor, to participate fairly in society, to bear arms to defend against tyranny, etc.  Combined with a high IQ, white people have been relatively hard to wrangle.  Comparatively-speaking, those from the Middle East, Africa, and Latin America are easier to control:  brute force and free bread can usually keep them under thumb.  This theory is given credence by the almost universal anti-white propaganda that is coming from TPTB these days.  Throw in the fact that many groups — like Michelle Goldberg above — truly hate us, and it’s plausible:

But this UN report shows that “replacement migration” has been studied for decades:

United Nations projections indicate that over the next 50 years, the populations of virtually all countries of Europe as well as Japan will face population decline and population ageing. The new challenges of declining and ageing populations will require comprehensive reassessments of many established policies and programmes, including those relating to international migration.

Focusing on these two striking and critical population trends, the report considers replacement migration for eight low-fertility countries (France, Germany, Italy, Japan, Republic of Korea, Russian Federation, United Kingdom and United States) and two regions (Europe and the European Union). Replacement migration refers to the international migration that a country would need to offset population decline and population ageing resulting from low fertility and mortality rates.

I have no doubt that when world leaders saw this report, they committed themselves to a policy of mass immigration.  Low fertility rates and ageing populations aren’t the death knell of a nation per se; they would simply require a temporary constriction on the standard of living, and a pause on economic growth.  But TPTB are not interested in pausing economic growth.  The current system is driven by consumption and leveraging debt.  They want to keep the massive ponzi scheme that is the modern economic order going for as long as they can.  For these people, bringing in cheap labor and vast numbers of consumers is pivotal for keeping the system afloat.  And I think this is essentially the motivation.  The fact that whites are being replaced as a result of it all is just a bonus for them.

In history, there have been times when nations were wiped out.  So we shouldn’t think it’s impossible.  In past cases, they were often conquered by a stronger foe.  But I don’t think we’ve ever seen anything at this scale, where entire continents were being replaced so efficiently.  At this point we might have to hope for a quick economic collapse — as soon as possible — and a collapse of our entire disordered political systems just for the sake of self-preservation.

And all of that explains the new Trump administration policy of not even bothering to detain or track illegal immigrants that are apprehended at the border.  The goal of “replacement migration” will continue here in America at break-neck speed:

Border patrol officers will start releasing many of the myriad migrants crossing the Rio Grande without even going through the formalities of temporary detention or strapping removable tracking-devices to the migrants’ ankles, according to a report by the Wall Street Journal.

The policy comes as the migrant wave is expected to reach 100,000 this month, and shortly after Congress again refused to seriously fund a border wall or to fund additional detention beds for migrants, to penalize companies which hire illegals, or to reform border laws or even to bar the courts from cutting loopholes in the border laws.

Traffickers have established a low-cost bus route through Mexico to deliver thousands of economic migrants from Central America to U.S. blue-collar jobs, according to the Washington Post. The business model is being called the “conveyor belt” system, and large groups of customers are charged from $2,500 to $7,000 per adult and child, depending on amenities, says the Washington Post.

 

St. Patrick’s Day

In the modern era of secularization it is easy to forget that St. Patrick’s Day is not just a party day but rather a Feast Day in the Universal Church to celebrate — you guessed it — St. Patrick and all that he has done for the Irish people and the Church at large.  So let’s take a moment and reflect on his remarkable life and how he allowed himself to be used as an instrument for God.  As we will see, God desired to bring even this tiny island nation located somewhere off the corner of a map into His fold.

Patrick was born in Kilpatrick, Scotland in the late 4th century and was of Romano-Briton ancestry (so perhaps of Welsh or Roman blood).  When he was just sixteen years old, he was captured by pirates and taken to Ireland and sold into slavery, as was not uncommon at the time.  These six young years of captivity and hardship were pivotal for forming Patrick and preparing him for his life’s mission.  He spent much of his time in prayer, devoting himself to God, and learning about the Celtic customs, language and druid religion which was predominant at the time.

After six years in slavery, he escaped his master and traveled to the shore — about a 200-mile journey — and returned by ship to his hometown.  No sooner was he home than did he desire to return to Ireland and convert the Irish race to the Catholic religion.  He studied under St. Martin of Tours and was ordained a priest by St. Germain.  He traveled to Rome and went before Pope St. Celestine I to receive his blessing to be an apostle to Ireland.  Shortly thereafter he was ordained bishop by St. Maximus.  And at the ripe-old age of 45, he was off to Ireland to conquer the nation.

He was met with both resistance and success, but the big breakthrough came early in 433 AD.  Patrick went to Tara — then the center of the kingdom — where the High King Laoghaire ruled, hoping to secure his approval of his mission.  Shortly before Easter, the druids celebrated an annual festival of fire and before the festival the king decreed that no fires should be lit until the festival, under penalty of death.  But at the Easter Vigil, Patrick went up to the Hill of Slane, near Dublin, and lit the Easter Vigil Pascal fire in plain view of the king.  (Hey, it’s the Easter Vigil — what do you expect?)  Of course the king was outraged and a confrontation ensued between the druid priests and Patrick, but the druids were not able to extinguish the fire.  As the days went on, Patrick was able to win over the king, mostly through the works of miracles, and received permission to convert the Irish people.

From there, Patrick went out to the whole nation, preaching to the people, winning over the chieftains (local rulers), building churches, and ordaining priests.  It is remarkable to consider how, in just a single generation, almost all of Ireland was converted to the Holy Faith and the old pagan beliefs were extinguished.  God wanted so much for this nation to be His own that He ordained these extraordinary events.

In summary, one has to reflect on the great courage and faith that St. Patrick had in order to confront the king and local rulers with such boldness.  He believed in God’s plan and put his full trust in Him and was able to accomplish something that is almost unmatched in history.  Second, we should recall that those six arduous years of slavery, in his youth, were necessary to form him.  Often we can grow bitter in our trials and tribulations, but St. Patrick shows us how to bear them with trust that God is going to use that for a greater good.

Finally, we must acknowledge that the situation in Ireland today, in regards to the Faith, is regrettable.  It has collapsed as quickly as it once spread in St. Patrick’s day — a matter of only a couple of decades.  This generation has failed to pass on to its children what it received from its ancestors.  It has dropped the ball.  It is said that by 2050, because of the migration of people from the third world, Ireland will be minority Irish.  The current prime minister is a gay Indian atheist who, last year, made the following outrageous statements:  “We live in a country that is a republic and we make our laws here. And while we respect people of faith, we respect religion, religious principles don’t decide why there is law in Ireland; don’t decide what the values of our republic are.”  To say that Irish values aren’t informed by the Catholic religion is to deny the very nation’s character and ancestry.  This is what happens when you take someone from outside and make him leader of your nation.  And now the Irish support gay “marriage” and have just legalized abortion.

But perhaps the current situation of Ireland is found in this final vision that St. Patrick had just before his death, as relayed by the Catholic Encyclopedia:

St. Patrick, having now completed his triumph over Paganism, and gathered Ireland into the fold of Christ, prepared for the summons to his reward. St. Brigid came to him with her chosen virgins, bringing the shroud in which he would be enshrined. It is recorded that when St. Patrick and St. Brigid were united in their last prayer, a special vision was shown to him. He saw the whole of Ireland lit up with the brightest rays of Divine Faith. This continued for centuries, and then clouds gathered around the devoted island, and, little by little, the religious glory faded away, until, in the course of centuries, it was only in the remotest valleys that some glimmer of its light remained. St. Patrick prayed that the light would never be extinguished, and, as he prayed, the angel came to him and said: “Fear not: your apostolate shall never cease.” As he thus prayed, the glimmering light grew in brightness, and ceased not until once more all the hills and valleys of Ireland were lit up in their pristine splendour, and then the angel announced to St. Patrick: “Such shall be the abiding splendour of Divine truth in Ireland.”

On St. Patrick’s Day, let’s take a moment to remember the real man.  Even if it’s just five minutes.  To know his mindset, we can find it in the prayer for protection that he composed, which we now call St. Patrick’s Breastplate:  “Christ be in all hearts thinking about me / Christ be on all tongues telling of me / Christ be the vision in eyes that see me / In ears that hear me Christ ever be.”

When we think of St. Patrick, do we then think of Our Lord?  We should!  Because that’s what he would want!

Aren’t you glad that St. Patrick worked so hard so that we could have the Holy Faith?

Christ Be Beside Me

Tune: Bunessan
Text:  St. Patrick’s Breastplate (5th century)

Christ be beside me
Christ be before me
Christ be behind me
King of my heart.
Christ be within me
Christ be below me
Christ be above me
Never to part.

Christ on my right hand
Christ on my left hand
Christ all around me
Shield in the strife.
Christ in my sleeping
Christ in my sitting
Christ in my rising
Light of my life.

Christ be in all hearts thinking about me
Christ be on all tongues telling of me
Christ be the vision in eyes that see me
In ears that hear me Christ ever be.

 

De Facto Amnesty

Take a look at this video posted by the Border Patrol:

The first thing we can see is that steel slats are not a viable long-term solution because they are easily penetrable. The second and obvious problem is that once these invaders are apprehended, they immediately claim asylum and are therefore released into the country to pursue their end destinations. Question: What, exactly, is the point of the Border Patrol? Isn’t it a waste of resources to chase down invaders only to release them?

The fact is, we have a de facto amnesty situation on the ground right now.

Here’s what needs to happen:

  1. A large, tall, concrete wall needs to be built immediately along the portions of the border where people are coming in. If funding is an issue, force Mexico to pay for it by limiting trade between the countries. The sooner the wall is built, the sooner full trade will resume. If Mexico wants to trade with us, they need to help us with the border.
  2. Every one of these illegal immigrants is partaking in American society in some capacity. Either through employment, welfare, their kids are going to schools, etc. Every one of these instances can be targeted by the executive branch without needing an act of Congress. It’s simply a matter of enforcing the current immigration laws on the books. If someone employs an illegal immigrant, go after the employer. If an illegal alien is in school, go find his or her parents and deport the family.

The illegal (and legal) immigration situation is worse now than under any other administration. If something doesn’t change quick, we can expect states like Texas, Florida and North Carolina to forever vote Democrat. We can expect whites to become a minority in this country and shortly thereafter subjugated.  (Because nobody likes white people.) We can expect Honduras-like socialism to become the ruling system. And we can surely expect Brazil-like violence to become epidemic. All because certain people in positions to act decided not to act because they didn’t want to be mean.

Millions and millions of people are pouring into the country and completely transforming it into something else. People have got to put aside their political preferences and hold Trump’s feet to the fire and demand that he follow through on his campaign pledges that got him elected in the first place. If they don’t, their children and grandchildren are going to live just like they do in Brazil and Mexico and El Salvador.

School… or Zoo?

Next time somebody tells you that spending $15,000 per pupil per year isn’t enough money for “our schools”, just show them this video:

Miserere mei, Deus

Last week we took a listen to an example of the “music” that today’s culture-controllers are forcing on Americans.  It was base, filthy, of poor morals, and one couldn’t even distinguish a single English word in the lyrics.

To draw a comparison to a historical, European piece of music — which also doesn’t have a single English word — from a Christian era I’d like to present Gregorio Allegri’s Miserere mei, Deus.  Written for two, dis-located (i.e., physically separated) small choirs — one group of men, the other boys — it is an exemplary composition featuring Renaissance-era polyphonic chant.  Initially, it was only performed once a year and only in the Sistine Chapel — on Wednesday and Good Friday of Holy Week.  The text is from Psalm 50 (51), a penitential psalm written by David, providing a fitting setting for Good Friday.

Whenever I hear the modern narrative that life was terrible hundreds of years ago, and that our forefathers were primitive and stupid, and that the world was terrible when the Catholic Church had influence, I always come back to this musical piece.  Where is music and art like this in today’s world?

The following performance from the 1980s is by The Tallis Scholars.  There are alternate performances by King’s College Choir and the Choir of New College, Oxford.  Photos from St. Peter’s Basilica.

Miserere mei, Deus

Composer: Gregorio Allegri (1582 – 1652)
Text:  Psalm 50 (51)

Miserere mei, Deus: secundum magnam misericordiam tuam.
Et secundum multitudinem miserationum tuarum, dele iniquitatem meam.
Amplius lava me ab iniquitate mea: et a peccato meo munda me.
Quoniam iniquitatem meam ego cognosco: et peccatum meum contra me est semper.
Tibi soli peccavi, et malum coram te feci: ut justificeris in sermonibus tuis, et vincas cum judicaris.
Ecce enim in iniquitatibus conceptus sum: et in peccatis concepit me mater mea.
Ecce enim veritatem dilexisti: incerta et occulta sapientiae tuae manifestasti mihi.
Asperges me hysopo, et mundabor: lavabis me, et super nivem dealbabor.
Auditui meo dabis gaudium et laetitiam: et exsultabunt ossa humiliata.
Averte faciem tuam a peccatis meis: et omnes iniquitates meas dele.
Cor mundum crea in me, Deus: et spiritum rectum innova in visceribus meis.
Ne proiicias me a facie tua: et spiritum sanctum tuum ne auferas a me.
Redde mihi laetitiam salutaris tui: et spiritu principali confirma me.
Docebo iniquos vias tuas: et impii ad te convertentur.
Libera me de sanguinibus, Deus, Deus salutis meae: et exsultabit lingua mea justitiam tuam.
Domine, labia mea aperies: et os meum annuntiabit laudem tuam.
Quoniam si voluisses sacrificium, dedissem utique: holocaustis non delectaberis.
Sacrificium Deo spiritus contribulatus: cor contritum, et humiliatum, Deus, non despicies.
Benigne fac, Domine, in bona voluntate tua Sion: ut aedificentur muri Ierusalem.
Tunc acceptabis sacrificium justitiae, oblationes, et holocausta: tunc imponent super altare tuum vitulos.

Have mercy on me, O God

Composer: Gregorio Allegri (1582 – 1652)
Text:  Psalm 50 (51)

Have mercy upon me, O God, after Thy great goodness
According to the multitude of Thy mercies do away mine offences.
Wash me thoroughly from my wickedness: and cleanse me from my sin.
For I acknowledge my faults: and my sin is ever before me.
Against Thee only have I sinned, and done this evil in thy sight: that Thou mightest be justified in Thy saying, and clear when Thou art judged.
Behold, I was shapen in wickedness: and in sin hath my mother conceived me.
But lo, Thou requirest truth in the inward parts: and shalt make me to understand wisdom secretly.
Thou shalt purge me with hyssop, and I shall be clean: Thou shalt wash me, and I shall be whiter than snow.
Thou shalt make me hear of joy and gladness: that the bones which Thou hast broken may rejoice.
Turn Thy face from my sins: and put out all my misdeeds.
Make me a clean heart, O God: and renew a right spirit within me.
Cast me not away from Thy presence: and take not Thy Holy Spirit from me.
O give me the comfort of Thy help again: and stablish me with Thy free Spirit.
Then shall I teach Thy ways unto the wicked: and sinners shall be converted unto Thee.
Deliver me from blood-guiltiness, O God, Thou that art the God of my health: and my tongue shall sing of Thy righteousness.
Thou shalt open my lips, O Lord: and my mouth shall shew [show] Thy praise.
For Thou desirest no sacrifice, else would I give it Thee: but Thou delightest not in burnt-offerings.
The sacrifice of God is a troubled spirit: a broken and contrite heart, O God, shalt Thou not despise.
O be favourable and gracious unto Sion: build Thou the walls of Jerusalem.
Then shalt Thou be pleased with the sacrifice of righteousness, with the burnt-offerings and oblations: then shall they offer young bullocks upon Thine altar.

Welcome to the Jungle

A couple of interesting stories came out this week about NYC public schools.  Both make it apparent that the Bronx Zoo now has better behaved animals.

The first is actually a good story, and shows a path that we need to consider exploring more frequently:  lawsuits.  A teacher won a “substantial” settlement from the Department of Education for being treated like a bag of garbage by her students and, implicitly, by the administration that allowed these students to run buckwild in her classroom.  And yes, ultimately this money comes from the taxpayers, but if there were enough successful settlements against these government schools, maybe people will finally be held accountable.  (Then again, this is America, which is now Clown World, so maybe not.)

An immigrant Bosnian city teacher who complained of horrific racial, sexual, and physical abuse from students has settled a lawsuit against the Department of Education, The Post has learned.

Aida Sehic and the DOE agreed to resolve the case this week for an undisclosed but “substantial” sum, according to her attorney, Bryan Glass.

Sehic’s Manhattan federal suit said students in Bronx and Manhattan schools cracked her nose with a bag of metal rulers, stabbed her with a mechanical pencil, routinely demanded sex acts, overturned her classroom and frequently called her a “white bitch.”

Sehic said she repeatedly sought relief from a range of sources, including school administrators, her union and even cops.

But there was little interest in her woes – and Sehic said she was instead targeted for termination because of her complaints and hit with disciplinary charges in 2016.

What lovely students she must have had.

The second story from the NY Post has direct feedback from NYC teachers themselves.  I think I would rather clean toilets at Taco Bell than deal with this crap:

“If I had a dime for every time I was told to suck something, I’d be a millionaire,” said a female Jamaica, Queens, high school teacher.

“You can’t even tell a student that they aren’t going to pass a test or a class anymore because they will go to an administrator and complain that you made them feel uncomfortable and we’ll get written up,” she added.

The situation is no better in elementary schools, a teacher at Staten Island’s PS 44 said.

“In the lunchroom, there are constant fights … I had to go to urgent care. I was kicked in the knee [by a student]. I was limping for a week. I had blocks thrown at me,” she said.

It wasn’t always so bad, a Manhattan junior high school teacher said.

“Before, you couldn’t get away with saying ‘F you’ to a teacher or ‘Suck my d–k.’ But now there is no accountability,” she said.

Imagine somebody who has the desire to be a teacher.  She studies, gets the requisite certifications, lands the job and prepares her teaching materials.  She’s motivated by the desire to go into that school and show the kids how to explore, learn, grow and become wholesome, productive citizens for our country.  And on her first day she walks into her kindergarten classroom and some kid tells her to “Suck my d–k”.

That’s the New America.

Many moons ago the public schools were integrated at the end of a barrel of a gun.  The federal government literally sent the military to many states and forced the schools to be integrated.  How’s that working out now that discipline has regressed to the natural state of the jungle?

 

Muslim Criticizes Jews, Whites Blamed

To give an idea of just how little representation whites have in their own country, consider the bizarre case of uppity Muslim House Representative Ilhan Omar criticizing dual loyalty in the US Congress and the Congress responding by passing a resolution condemning white supremacy:

Whereas white supremacists in the United States have exploited and continue to exploit bigotry and weaponized hate for political gain, targeting traditionally persecuted peoples, including African Americans, Latinos, Native Americans, Asian Americans and Pacific Islanders and other people of color, Jews, Muslims, Hindus, Sikhs, the LGBTQ community, immigrants, and others with verbal attacks, incitement, and violence.

In that long list of “victims that need to be defended from acts of bigotry”, do you happen to notice which group was excluded?

On the one hand, I must give the Democrats credit.  After Omar’s controversy, they circled the wagons, protected her, took hold of the issue and turned this resolution into another chance to brow-beat whites who were simply watching on the sidelines.

Compare it to how the Republicans treated Steve King when he said that, perhaps, Western Civilization is kind of good and stuff.  Immediately they took to Twitter to denounce him.  The House Minority Leader went all over the Sunday morning talk shows to grovel and explain that “that’s not who we are”.  Then they proceeded to pass a resolution 424-1 denouncing… you guess it!  White supremacy!

Putting aside this obvious clown world state of things, what about the content of Omar’s criticism?

Let us say that there was a foreign country — say, Russia or Japan — that had one of the most powerful lobbies in the country, such that every presidential candidate must go before the lobby and pledge his obeisance to this foreign country with a speech detailing how his (or her) presidency would be good for that foreign country.  Imagine if most members of Congress took money from this lobby.  Imagine if criticizing this lobby would result in widespread condemnation from all sides.  Imagine if US foreign policy in the region where this foreign country lies was dictated not by the will of the people, but by what would most benefit this foreign country, including deployment of troops for wartime activities.  Now imagine that there were members of the US Congress that had DUAL CITIZENSHIP with this foreign country.

Does anybody think that would fly if it was any country other than Israel?

I don’t know any serious nation in the world that allows its representatives to be dual citizens.

After Omar made her comments, President Trump tweeted that it was “a dark day for Israel!”  It’s been a dark day in America ever since our border has been trespassed with millions of annual invaders.  But I don’t see anybody doing anything about it.  Trump said that he has now reversed his decision and will be keeping some troops in Syria “to protect Israel”.   The American people don’t want our troops in Syria.  That has been said over and over again.  Why does Israel get to veto the foreign policy wishes of the American people?  Are we allowed to have any say at all in our government?

Has the United States become a vassal country of Israel?  It doesn’t seem that far-fetched.

Once you see it, you can’t un-see it.

 

The Best Economy Ever? For Who?

Below there is some interesting analysis of the job growth for 2018. Of the 1.8 million new jobs, only 60,000 went to American born men. The rest were split between American women and foreigners.

Surely we are graduating more than 60,000 male students every year? Where are they getting jobs? Simple answer: they aren’t. Because foreigners are the preferred source of labor, since they’re cheap.

And now President Trump is saying on a regular basis that we need to increase the number of LEGAL immigrants to help companies looking for workers. Is this what putting America First looks like?

Has Trump completely abandoned the MAGA agenda?

Institution of Higher Learning

This is what goes on at “colleges” these days. The College Republicans were starting a presentation and some dimwit came in ringing a cowbell and got it shut down. You’ll notice that Portland and campus police were both on hand and did absolutely nothing. (Again, I continue to repeat over and over again: the police in this country have absolutely failed the loyalty test. They are not on your side. And we would be wise to make preparations with this fact in mind.)

Folks… THE WHOLE WORLD is laughing at us. Does anybody for a moment think a country like China is worried about us? Do you think they fear us?

Now where is that executive order defending free speech on campus that Trump threatened to write? Or was that another empty threat like his executive order to ban birthright citizenship?

It is past time we abandon all of these false pretenses about “free speech”. The Left never believed in free speech. They just wanted this fabricated “right” blown wide-open so that they could use it to subvert the order and take control, and then shut everyone else down.

Conservatism, Inc.

“Too much capitalism does not mean too many capitalists, but too few capitalists.” — G.K. Chesterton

I read today that the Republicans and President Trump are eager to make their opponents’ “socialism” the big issue of the 2020 campaign.  They think that’s a slam-dunk talking point for the modern era.

They might want to look at this poll:

After running a phenomenal campaign in 2016 on the following anti-Establishment themes:  America First, halting immigration, ending foreign wars, re-balancing trade deals, jobs for Americans — the Republicans think that hammering socialism and talking up corporate tax cuts are winning issues for 2020.  It’s the proverbial losing strategy of Conservatism, Inc.

What can explain the reason that the younger generations are taking on more favorable views of socialism?  There are many factors, but consider two.  The first is that the younger generations are simply less white.  The youngest cohort is now majority minority.  Whites are a simple minority.  And more often, those younger generations come from Central and South America, where socialism is common.  When they cross the border into the US, they don’t suddenly become constitutional conservatives.

But what explains the move for whites?  The answer is somewhat simple:  less opportunity.  The system is simply not working for them and they’ve become disaffected.  They come out of college with $150k in loan debt and the only jobs they can find are $10 / hour part-time jobs at Starbucks.  They see that Jeff Bezos makes a trillion dollars an hour and they get bitter about their circumstances.  They can’t live like Americans did in the 1950s; those days are long gone.  There are no factories anymore.  Many of the trade jobs are taken by immigrants now.  Even many of the white-collar jobs like computer and IT work are taken by immigrants.  There’s nothing out there for them.  They’re giving up.  Buying a home and raising a family is out of reach.  Many are just committing suicide.

Of the two popular campaigns in 2016 — Bernie Sanders and Donald Trump — which one better diagnosed the problems and offered realistic solutions?  I think Trump’s campaign did.  The campaign laid the blame at our “free” trade deals that allowed companies to shut down factories here and build products in China, then ship them back here tariff-free.  Our wide-open immigration system has dramatically depressed wages and reduced job opportunities for Americans (increase labor supply and wages go down — it’s just a simple law of economics).  If you bring the factories back and eliminate immigration, you can get more, higher-paying jobs in America; and average, working class Americans begin to share more in the wealth and success of the country.  Sanders, on the other hand, proposed raising taxes on the rich, free healthcare, and a $15 minimum wage.  I don’t see how that even begins to address the fundamental problems.

Unfortunately, because Trump and the Republicans have refused to follow through on doing those things that could re-distribute wealth organically through the free market system, socialism will end up winning out in the end.  It’s a certainty.  You can’t have the kind of wealth and power disparity that has developed in the US without some kind of revolution following.

Did the organizers of CPAC understand this?  It doesn’t look like it.  From what I read, the big topics there were Reagan conservatism, the Constitution, and Israel — all of the totally out-of-sync, Boomer-era issues of Conservatism, Inc.  I heard they had three panels discussing Israel and one on immigration, and the one related to immigration was about how much conservatives love LEGAL immigration.  (You see, to Conservatism, Inc., when the entire nation is being transformed by foreign cultures and its native population is forced onto welfare it’s completely okay as long as it’s done LEGALLY.)  Unsurprisingly, the themes on display at CPAC were controlled by those who brought the big money.  That’s why Ann Coulter was not invited to speak.  They couldn’t have somebody up there criticizing LEGAL immigration.

Here’s the path to victory:  Become a nationalist. Forget Democrat and Republican, liberal and conservatism.  Focus on America First.  Forget about the Israeli lobby and start focusing on the American Worker lobby.  Halt immigration and kick out the ones on work visas that are taking American jobs.  Bring the manufacturing industry back.  Make good-paying jobs for these kids so that when they come out of school they can hit the ground running.  That’s how you win them over.

But if you fall back to all the loser issues of the Republican Party establishment — the very ones that Jeb! and Marco Rubio lost with in 2016 — not only will you lose political control, but you will lose the entire country.

“But at least they came here LEGALLY!”
