John Derbyshire: Build the Wall

Over at VDARE, John Derbyshire weighs in on Trump, border hysteria from the left and the ultimate need to build the wall.

You likely know that Mexico, through which these Central American invaders passed, has a well-equipped U.S. embassy and nine, count ’em nine, consulates scattered across that country from Yucatan in the south to Tijuana in the north. Any Central American seeking asylum in the U.S.A. could apply at any of those places, without any fear of being separated from his children.

You probably also know that Mexico is a nation addled with criminality and corruption. Much of what happens there is dictated by crime syndicates who depend on smuggling narcotics into the U.S.A. Those syndicates obviously have a keen interest in keeping our Border Patrol busy with other matters—like, for example, detaining and processing illegal border-crossers.

As of last Friday, you’re probably acquainted with the backstory behind Time magazine’s current cover picture of a weeping tot who, according to Time, had been ripped from her mother’s arms.

The true story—uncovered by the British press, of course, not by our own worthless hacks—is that the child comes from a comfortable middle-class family in Honduras; that the child’s mother long fantasized about living in the U.S.A.; and that she at last acted on her fantasy, paying six thousand dollars to people traffickers and heading north without telling her husband, who is left in Honduras with their other three children, aged fourteen to six.[ Honduran father reveals daughter was never separated from her mother, By Daniel Bates and Karen Ruiz , Daily Mail, June 23, 2018]

The Collapse of the Never Trump “Conservatives”

The American Spectator brings us this editorial that details the effective end of the “Never Trumpers.” Not that they will admit defeat or go away, mind you. But their influence and power are at an end. No one takes them seriously and no one is listening to them any longer. Their time in the sun is over.

The Never Trumpers were and are part of the establishment. They were never on the side of the people; they are bought and paid for by those who look down on the American people and their real love for the country and what it originally stood for. The elites do not want a free people or real representative government; they want their oligarchy, power, and money. Trump is taking that power away from them and giving it back to the people. That’s why the elites hate him.

Looking back, it now seems self-evident that conservative pundits were preposterously out of touch. (Who isn’t amused by the poindexter pretentiousness of George Will’s bow-ties or the pseudo-scholarly piffle of Jonah Goldberg’s byline as “the inaugural holder of the Asness Chair in Applied Liberty?”). These intellectuals barely noticed the opioid crisis running through small town America; or the base’s anger regarding illegal immigration; and they were adamantly opposed to any restriction of free trade while working class frustrations mounted over NAFTA and its ilk. (This explains why J. D. Vance and his book Hillbilly Elegy was Washington’s must-read book of 2017: it provided a portrait of rural America that the political class could digest without condescending to visit such places, or talk to such voters.) It turns out that conservative intellectuals, living inside the “Acela Corridor” and funded exclusively by think tanks and foundations, are poor barometers of Republican voter concerns.

The West and Immigration Invasion

You can tell that the left is in trouble because all across the West we are now seeing the rejection of their multi-cultural third world immigration invasion plans. As an example here is a video by Dr. Steven Turley in which he examines the recent events in Germany that may bring down the EU. The Elites who run the EU have been pushing open borders and multi-culturalism on Europe for many years, just as our Elites have been pushing the same agenda in the U.S. But as the horrific effects of these policies become more clear to the general population the pushback has grown to the point where it is now changing the political landscape in dramatic ways. In the U.S. we get a move to the right and a Trump presidency. In Europe, we may be seeing the beginning of the end of the European Union.

Are Atheists Genetic Mutants-A Product of Recent Evolution?

Here is an interesting article from Unz Review that argues that maladaptive genetic changes have become more common due, ironically, to the technological improvements made possible by the industrial revolution. Basically, in the past, those children with poor genes that were divergent from the norm tended to die off early on and thus would be less likely to reproduce and pass those adaptations on to the next generation.

Until the Industrial Revolution, we were under harsh conditions of Darwinian Selection, meaning that about 40% of children died before they reached adulthood. These children would have been those who had mutant genes, leading to poor immune systems and death from childhood diseases. But they would also have had mutant genes affecting the mind. This is because the brain, home to 84% of the genome, is extraordinarily sensitive to mutation, so mental and physical mutation robustly correlate. If these children had grown up, they might have had autism, schizophrenia, depression… but they had poor immune systems, so they never had the chance.

Under these conditions, prevalent until the nineteenth century, we were individually selected for but we were also “group selected” for. Ethnic groups are simply a genetic extended family and some groups fared better against the environment and enemy groups than others did, due to the kind of partly genetic psychological adaptations they developed.

Tammy Bruce on California Water Rationing

Former leftists often have the best insight into the failures and antics of the left. The state of California has just passed laws that severely limit water usage per person in that hell-hole of a state and provides further reasons for any normal person to avoid those places where the left is in charge of things. If you are on the right and you can flee from California, you really need to get out while you can.

Tammy Bruce weighs in;

“Please sir, I want some more,” is no longer a sentiment just for Oliver Twist in the orphanage. A new law in California limits how much water can be used by each household. Now their showers, how many flushes, and how often they can do their laundry will be under the watchful eye of the state government.

This from politicians who have pushed policies creating homeless and drug abuse crises throughout the state. They have now decided to clamp down on the use of the most basic needs of civilized living.

As the blog Zero Hedge put it, “it’s now against the law to do laundry and shower on the same day in the Sunshine State,” and they’re not exaggerating. Under the guise of addressing “climate change,” the new bill rations water to a degree that makes it impossible to maintain a healthy home environment.

Perhaps the state wants everyone to feel like the drug addicts living in California’s ever-expanding homeless tent cities?

Zero Hedge reported, “Assembly Bill 1668 is where it gets personal. This establishes limits on indoor water usage for every person in California and the amount allowed will decrease even further over the next 12 years. ‘The bill, until January 1, 2025, would establish 55 gallons per capita daily as the standard for indoor residential water use, beginning January 1, 2025, would establish the greater of 52.5 gallons per capita daily or a standard recommended by the department and the board as the standard for indoor residential water use, and beginning January 1, 2030, would establish the greater of 50 gallons per capita daily or a standard recommended by the department and the board as the standard for indoor residential water use …’”

Meanwhile, the cuckservatives over at The Weakly Standard try as hard as they can to make excuses for California Democrats and leftists who are destroying a formerly great state.

It is unclear the effect that said fines could have on consumers.

Really, unclear? I can tell you right now that people will have to do with less and pay if they don’t bow down to the enviro-nazis. How is that hard to figure out for the cucks at the Weakly Standard?

The General Intelligence Factor

This article by a noted expert in intelligence, Linda Gottfredson, lays out the basic details of how IQ affects our performance in education and job performance. Good reading and corresponds very well with the common-sense observation that being smart does make a big difference in our success.

Half a century of military and civilian research has converged to draw a
portrait of occupational opportunity
along the IQ continuum. Individuals in
the top 5 percent of the adult IQ distribution (above IQ 125) can essentially
train themselves, and few occupations are beyond their reach mentally. Persons of average IQ (between 90 and 110) are not competitive for most professional and executive-level work but are easily trained for the bulk of jobs in the American economy. In contrast, adults in the bottom 5 percent of the IQ distribution (below 75) are very difficult to train and are not competitive for any occupation on the basis of ability
.

The 2018 Omnibus Bill

This is not a good bill in a perfect world. And many on the right are upset that Trump signed it given how much it gave to the Democrats. But Obama did hollow out the military worse than people know. And because it’s not a budget in the constitutional sense, just an “Omnibus”, there may be a lot of wiggle room that the Dems didn’t consider. (This is why they gave Obama no budgets during his 8 years)

Over at Conservative Treehouse, some commenters point out that not all is doom and gloom. Yes, we would want to have a better bill if we could get one. But we won’t get much more from our RINO Republicans who are still entrenched in the Congress. That said, we should remember that the rot against which we are fighting goes deep and a long way back. It will take a lot of time and effort to put things right. Remember that Bannon said that the Establishment would not give up easily. They will pull out all the stops to keep their power and position. This fight is still in its early stages. We have a long way to go.

For Trump, there is also a learning curve. Trump is new to politics. Some things take time. And there is a difference between a true budget and an omnibus.

https://constitutioncenter…

The relevant part of the constitution discussing budgets is thus:

No Money shall be drawn from the Treasury, but in Consequence of
Appropriations made by Law; and a regular Statement and Account of the
Receipts and Expenditures of all public Money shall be published from
time to time.

An omnibus doesn’t count as “a regular statement of account of receipts and expenditures.” That is why Congress never gave Obama a true budget. A real budget is strictly written; this bill is not. That gave Obama the freedom to spend as he wanted to, which of course he did.

Elizabeth Holmes Slap on the Wrist

Return of Kings has an article on Elisabeth Holmes and how she is getting a mere slap on the wrist despite the astonishing amount of money that was swindled from investors who put capital into her company, Theranos. It seems they put forth a bogus blood testing technology that everyone thought would be the next hot thing. But it was fake and even though she fleeced investors big time, she gets off because she is cute with blond hair.

Fraudster and STEM “It Girl” Elizabeth Holmes has settled a lawsuit with the US Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) for a measly $500,000. This is despite the SEC stating that Holmes lied and otherwise deceived investors to the tune of $700 million, engaging in “massive fraud.” Her company, Theranos, promised to revolutionize the blood-testing industry, yet produced continuously faulty “medical” equipment and failed to respect legally required healthcare and laboratory standards. ROK has reported on this debacle over several years already.

Funnily enough, pharmaceutical executive and all-round shitlord Martin Shkreli, despised by leftists everywhere, was jailed for seven years this month. A court ruled that Shkreli fraudulently obtained $7 million through his hedge fund activities. It’s difficult to see why Elizabeth Holmes should not be in jail, too, and serving a much, much longer sentence than seven years.

SPLC Targets Return of Kings

In this article by Matt Forney we take a look at some of the activities of the far-left organization (((The Southern Poverty Law Center.))) This organization has been very active in targeting conservative groups and individuals in order to silence the opinions and views that they hold so as to prevent them from becoming more well known to the general public. Recently The Daily Caller reported that the SPLC was being used by Google to identify and purge conservatives from YouTube.

It should be noted that this is a pattern that we see with leftist organizations that have been compromised by (((certain groups))) intent on undermining traditional American civilization and its culture. (((These groups))) have been largely immune from criticism in the past, but with the development of the alt-right that is beginning to change. This explains why the left is so concerned with trying to remove conservative voices from as many platforms as they can.

Also, for the first time, the SPLC added two male supremacy groups to the hate group list: A Voice for Men, based in Houston, and Return of Kings, based in Washington, D.C. The vilification of women by these groups makes them no different than other groups that demean entire populations, such as the LGBT community, Muslims or Jews, based on their inherent characteristics.

Things Fall Apart

Clearly, there is no joy in Mudville. The SJWs in the various agencies have been very, very naughty and their activities are now coming to light such that a whole lot of people are in deep trouble. It wasn’t supposed to be this way.

What we have come to know is that during the years of the Obama administration, the cancer of treasonous leftism was spread far and wide in the federal bureaucracy such that no part of the government is now free of corruption. Some agencies have more and some less, but none seem to be immune from the pestilence of Marxist influence and political correctness that destroys everything that it touches. Michael Goodwin writes at The New York Post:

During the financial crisis, the federal government bailed out banks it declared “too big to fail.” Fearing that their bankruptcy might trigger economic Armageddon, the feds propped them up with taxpayer cash.

Something similar is happening now at the FBI, with the Washington wagons circling the agency to protect it from charges of corruption. This time, the appropriate tag line is “too big to believe.”

Yet each day brings credible reports suggesting there is a massive scandal involving the top ranks of America’s premier law enforcement agency. The reports, which feature talk among agents of a “secret society” and suddenly missing text messages, point to the existence both of a cabal dedicated to defeating Donald Trump in 2016 and of a plan to let Hillary Clinton skate free in the classified email probe.

If either one is true — and I believe both probably are — it would mean FBI leaders betrayed the nation by abusing their powers in a bid to pick the president.

More support for this view involves the FBI’s use of the Russian dossier on Trump that was paid for by the Clinton campaign and the Democratic National Committee. It is almost certain that the FBI used the dossier to get FISA court warrants to spy on Trump associates, meaning it used the opposition research of the party in power to convince a court to let it spy on the candidate of the other party — likely without telling the court of the dossier’s political link.

Even worse, there is growing reason to believe that someone in President Barak Obama’s administration turned over classified information about Trump to the Clinton campaign. An FBI informant has apparently informed Congress that a secret society at the FBI was holding secret meetings off-site after the election of Donald Trump. On Special Report with Bret Baier Tuesday evening, Senator Ron Johnson (R-Wisc.) called it “corruption of the highest levels of the FBI.”

If you don’t already have doubts about the general intelligence of these people, you should seriously reconsider your viewpoint. Despite their power and position, their wealth and their ivy league degrees, the fact remains that most of them are rather pedestrian in their thinking. In fact, one could argue that an ivy league degree is a serious disadvantage given that schools today are far more interested in the task of liberal/leftist indoctrination than in teaching students how to actually think rationally and without bias, and thereby to make accurate assessments about how current events and plans may play out in the future. Wishful thinking is no substitute for real knowledge and hard practical analysis.

Political correctness and the arrogance that goes along with it comes naturally to these people. Combine that with what AC says is a deficient amygdala and you get people who are so certain of their moral righteousness and mental superiority that they simply do not think that they could ever be caught red-handed or pay a price for their actions. As this unfolds, I believe that we will see many of these individuals learn a very different and hard lesson otherwise. And they will deserve every bit of it.

The Great Shit-hole Debate

There was a great gnashing of teeth and clutching of pearls among the (((self-appointed elites))) when the subject of who should be allowed into the country and why came up in a White House meeting recently and The God Emperor was said to have been a bit disparaging of the countries of the 3rd world from whence most of our recent diversity have been imported.

The President wanted to know how it benefits us Americans to be bringing in so many of these people which would seem to be a reasonable question. Many regular people across the nation and particularly in fly-over-country have been asking these same questions for a very long time with no real response from our betters that does not involve them calling us “racists, bigots, trans-phobic, etc., etc.

But one of the things that we deplorables like about Trump is that culturally he is one of us and will not be shy about asking the obvious questions that (((the elites))) would rather not acknowledge and certainly do not want to address. And so we get the spectacle of leftists having a great hissy-fit on the question of just what constitutes a shit-hole and why would you want people from those places coming here anyway.

The truth of the matter is that the massive injection of diversity into the country in numbers great enough to seriously alter the character of the U.S. into something most people don’t want has been a major issue with the voters for some time now. It is also true that (((the elites))) have long been working to bring in these people against the wishes of the vast majority of the American people and they have no intention of stopping voluntarily. And that too is why we elected Trump.

This “fundamental transformation” of America can be traced back to the immigration act of 1965 that was signed into law by the Democrats of that era. I will have more to say on that later, but for now, it is very satisfying to see the left melting down because they were “triggered” by our President simply asking the kind of common-sense question that any of us would want to be answered. And as usual, they have no real answer.
