February, 2020, Part 9, Political Class Insanity: The Democrats Love For Illegal Immigrants, Including Criminals, Over The Needs Of Americans

It is another month which means it is again time to review the latest political class insanity from Washington and around the world. Political class insanity takes many forms including the wasting of taxpayer wealth, criminal fraud within government programs, inane and stupid political quotes and actions, the inability to create and implement effective and efficient government programs, stupid and ill performing economic policies and strategies, and other forms of insanity that continue to evolve and surprise and shock us.

Let’s get started:

1) Liberals and Democrats have decided that illegal immigrants are more important than both needy Americans (i.e. those that are homeless, hungry, and drug addicted) and the protection of the lives and property of Americans. Democrats flock down to the border or actually into Mexico to give solace and support to illegal immigrants but never seem to have the time to visit the homeless encampments or food banks serving needy Americans.

The other proof of their disdain for the welfare of Americans is their insistence that they not cooperate with the Federal government in finding and prosecuting and/or deporting violent illegal immigrant criminals. In other words, they would rather protect violent criminals than protect the lives and property of American citizens.

The result of their “sanctuary cities,” which protect violent illegal immigrant criminals, was illustrated by a recent set of ICE raids:

• These New Jersey ICE raids resulted in the apprehension of over 100 violent illegal immigrant criminals.
• Two of those captured were from Brazil and El Salvador and were wanted for murder.
• One of those taken into custody was from the violent Salvadoran MS-13 gang.
• Another illegal immigrant was a child abuser from Mexico that had previously been deported.
• A previously deported Mexican national convicted of criminal sexual contact involving a minor was brought into custody.
• A 22-year-old Dominican national member of the Trinitarios gang, who has weapons and theft convictions, was brought into custody.
• A 45-year-old Salvadoran national who has convictions for child endangerment and DUI was brought into custody.
• A 50-year-old Bolivian national who has multiple convictions for child endangerment, hindering apprehension and DUI was brought into custody.
• A 55-year-old United Kingdom national convicted of arson, domestic violence and drug dealing was brought into custody.
• A 58-year-old Peruvian national wanted for extortion in Peru was brought into custody.
• A 44-year-old Salvadoran national who has a conviction for endangering the welfare of a child was brought into custody.
• A 42-year-old Jamaican national convicted of drug smuggling and exporting cocaine was brought into custody.
• A 31-year-old previously deported Guatemalan national who has convictions for domestic violence and DUI was brought into custody.
• Of the 155 illegal immigrants that were rounded up, 85% had prior convictions or pending criminal charges over their heads.

This was one raid in one state, New Jersey. And yet over 100 dangerous people were taken off the street. And yet Democrats across the country continue to want to protect these often violent, child abusing illegal immigrants from meeting justice. In the meantime, American kids, adults, and their properties are in constant danger from the lives of these 115 people. 

I can see the compassion from these folks for innocent illegal immigrants who are just wanting a better life. But I am mystified by these politicians that protect violent criminals from justice while at the same time risking the safety of Americans.

2) Let’s look at some hard statistics as it applies to illegal immigrant criminal activity:

• A recent Department of Justice crime report found that a whopping 64% of all Federal arrests were made up of non-citizens, both legal and illegal immigrants.
• Twenty years ago this number was only 37%.
• Specifically: “The report also says, “Non-U.S. citizens, who make up 7% of the U.S. population (per the U.S. Census Bureau for 2017), accounted for 15% of all federal arrests and 15% of prosecutions in U.S. district court for non-immigration crimes in 2018 … Ninety-five percent of the increase in federal arrests across 20 years was due to immigration offenses.””
• Federal government arrests of non-citizens tripled from 1998 to 2018, an increase of 234% while the Federal arrest of U.S. citizens went up only 18%.
• In 2018, 24% of all Federal drug arrests were for non-U.S. citizens, 25% of Federal property arrests were non-citizens, and 28% of all Federal fraud arrests were non-U.S. citizens.

Okay, how much less would our police, prison, and other legal costs be in this country if we had a secure border and a fair, compassionate immigration process? Instead, we have runaway crime from non-U.S. citizens and as we learned above, we have some various dangerous illegal immigrant criminals running free in our towns and cities. Given that a primary function of government is to protect its citizens, this government, mostly Democrats are not doing their basic duties as government officials.

3) Looks like it will be a criminal illegal immigration focused day. The Federation for American Immigration Reform, FAIR, recently released their research concerning illegal immigration in smaller American cities and states. The highlights and low lights of their research found that:

• New Hampshire, Mississippi, Alaska, Maine, North Dakota, West Virginia, South Dakota, Vermont, Montana and Wyoming have the smallest populations of foreign-born residents, 415,000 on total of which about 20% , 81,000, of these folks are illegal immigrants.
• These illegal immigrants cost American taxpayers in these states $454 million a year.
• Each of these illegal immigrants cost carry a tax deficit of between $4,000 and $6,500 a year, i.e. this is the difference between the tax revenue collected from these folks and the taxpayer wealth that is paid out for them.
• About 35,000 of these 81,000 illegal immigrants are kids which puts additional pressure and costs on public school systems in these states.
• Consider what happened to Lewiston, Maine schools: “A prime example is Lewiston, Maine. Over the past 15 years, more than 7,500 migrants – most of whom are refugees from dozens of different countries – have resettled in the town, which has a population of less than 40,000. As is often the case, residents and city officials had no say in the resettlement process and little warning that these migrants were going to be placed in their community. According to former Mayor Laurier T. Raymond Jr., the city became “maxed-out financially, physically, and emotionally.””
• As a result, the quality of teaching has suffered for all students as teachers have to cope with 34 different languages in their classrooms.
• Some schools in North and South Dakota have had to transfer funds for special needs students to pay for immigrant kids who do not speak English.
• The FAIR report also discussed the reality that foreign workers, both legal and illegal, in these smaller states and their downs exert downward pressure on wages for American workers.
• And the impact is not just on school systems, FAIR explains how immigrants are much more likely to use emergency medical services vs. going to a doctor’s office, putting additional financial and resource pressure on struggling rural medical systems.

That will do it for today’s illegal immigrant political class insanity. As liberals and Democrats continue to protect and support illegal immigrants, often illegal immigrants that are violent criminal elements, the safety, the tax dollars, and the limited social resources that would normally go to taxpaying Americans is severely sacrificed and often fatal. 

Which means that Democrats in this area have failed at a top priority of and reason for government: the protection of citizens.

February, 2020, Part 8, Political Class Insanity: Election Corruption in D.C., Peter Buttigieg Does Not Get Reality, and Obama's Final Insult to Injury

It is another month which means it is again time to review the latest political class insanity from Washington and around the world. Political class insanity takes many forms including the wasting of taxpayer wealth, criminal fraud within government programs, inane and stupid political quotes and actions, the inability to create and implement effective and efficient government programs, stupid and ill performing economic policies and strategies, and other forms of insanity that continue to evolve and surprise and shock us.

Let’s get started:

1) The corruption of those in Washington D.C. continues unabated according to an article on the Freedom Headlines website: 

• Attorney General William Barr has handed down 8 indictments of Washington operatives.
• The charges are centered around the accusation that these people illegally tried to funnel millions of dollars from foreign sources to top Democrats including Adam Schiff, Hillary Clinton, Cory Booker, and other top Democrats.
• According to the article: “Two Lebanese-American businessmen — including a witness in then-Special Counsel Robert Mueller’s probe — are among eight people charged with conspiring to funnel more than $3 million in illegal foreign campaign contributions to an unnamed candidate in the 2016 elections, the Justice Department announced on Tuesday. Although the indictment does not specifically name the 2016 candidate, campaign finance records indicate that the recipient of the donations was Democratic presidential candidate Hillary Clinton.”
• The indictment includes 53 counts of alleged criminal activity so this was not a little event, given the number of counts and the fact that the alleged activity involved upwards of $3.5 million.
• The counts include such crimes as making illegal conduit contributions, making excessive contributions, making false statements, creating false records, and obstruction of a grand jury.

If the allegations are true, it just verifies again that the political class in this country is corrupt to the core and hypocritical to the max, making laws for us to follow and then assuming those same laws do not apply to themselves.

2) Peter Buttigieg recently made the following accusation regarding Trump's handling of the economy: “The problem is we’ve had an economy grow and not been able to lift up those most in need or even so many in the middle. When I’m president, we’re going to measure the performance of our economy not by the Dow Jones, but by the income growth of the 90 percent.”

Which gets to another age old question when it comes to American politicians: do they actually believe this type of tripe that they dish out or do they think we are too stupid to understand the falsehoods that they are peddling? If the economy is so bad for the non-wealthy why is:

• The African-American unemployment rate at or near a record low?
• The Hispanic unemployment rate at or near a record low?
• The lesser educated unemployment rate at or near a record low?
• The female unemployment rate at or near a record low?
• The number of people receiving and in need of food stamps is down 7 million since Trump took office?
• The rate of rise in wages almost twice as high for those in the lower wage brackets than the highest wage brackets, up 4.5% year over year, more than double the rate of inflation?

Again, is he and his staff that stupid when it comes to reality or is he lying to us and assuming we are too stupid to check reality and the numbers for ourselves to see he is lying? And on top of his lies, he, of course, provides no details on how he would do better than Trump on keeping unemployment low, get wage growth higher, or get more jobs and off of food stamps.

3) I think any rational person knows that Obama was not a big fan of Israel. He once suggested that Israel should go back to its 1967 borders which would be a death sentence for the country. He sent his political operatives to Israel to try and defeat Netanyahu’s bid for reelection since Netanyahu would not kowtow to Obama’s demands. He sent well over a billion in cash to Iran, a country that is the world’s leading terror nation and a nation that has vowed to destroy Israel.

And now we find out that Obama pulled some shady dealings hours before he left office in support of the mortal enemies of Israel, the Palestinians:

• According to a Yahoo News/AP article that I recently came across, Obama sent $221 million to the Palestinians in the waning hours of his Presidency.
• This money had been blocked by Republican members of Congress.
• According to the article: “Congress had initially approved the Palestinian funding in budget years 2015 and 2016, but at least two GOP lawmakers — Ed Royce of California, the chairman of the House Foreign Affairs Committee, and Kay Granger of Texas, who sits on the House Appropriations Committee — had placed holds on it over moves the Palestinian Authority had taken to seek membership in international organizations. Congressional holds are generally respected by the executive branch but are not legally binding after funds have been allocated.”
• While the fund were supposed to be used for “humanitarian projects,” I think it is a pretty safe bet, given the history of the Palestinian leadership, that those funds would eventually find themselves to be used for anti-Israel terror activities.
• Do we really think they were going to use $4 million of that money for “for clean energy, sustainable landscapes, cutting greenhouse gas emissions and creating a climate technology center.”?

Millions of Americans are homeless and/or hungry every day and Obama sends $4 million overseas to be used for sustainable landscapes and a climate technology center. Not only a waste of taxpayer money but also a boon for those in the leadership of the Palestinians for their anti-Israel activities. Insanity.

That will do it for today’s insanity: Obama secretly funding shady, anti-Israel players in the Middle East, a Presidential candidate who either does not understand reality or is a big liar, and more Washington D.C. corruption and criminal behavior.

February, 2020, Part 7, Political Class Insanity: Birth Control Licensing In Chicago, Small Businesses Flee NYC, and Pelosi is Despicable In DC

It is another month which means it is again time to review the latest political class insanity from Washington and around the world. Political class insanity takes many forms including the wasting of taxpayer wealth, criminal fraud within government programs, inane and stupid political quotes and actions, the inability to create and implement effective and efficient government programs, stupid and ill performing economic policies and strategies, and other forms of insanity that continue to evolve and surprise and shock us.

Let’s get started:

1) Just when you thought that American politicians could not get any more intrusive into our lives, any more anti-freedom, a politician comes along to blow away that assumption:

• According to a recent article on the Liberty Planet website, a local Chicago politician, Ray Lopez, wants anyone wanting to have a kid to get a license from the government before conceiving.
• A likely cause of this insane idea was the recent case of a father who is accused of murdering his own which is certainly a tragic story.
• But to force ALL would be parents to go in front of basically a baby licensing board before conceiving is too inane to try and comprehend.
• Communist China tried to get involved in the childbirth process with their one child strategy and it has been a disaster.
• China’s population is aging rapidly causing all kinds of social service support issues.
• Also, over time Chinese parents have been forced to have abortions for violating the one child laws, those that managed to give birth to extra kids have had to pay hefty fines for the simple act of parenthood, and these extra kids have been denied “ofifcial documentation” from the central government which means they cannot go to school, enroll in college, or get a decent job.
• And this local politician wants to do a similar program in this country.

The government intrusion into our lives in this idiocy boggles the mind:

• Would the government take a child away from the parents if they did not get a license?
• If kids were taken away from parents because no license was obtained, would the kids be put in foster care, a system that already has far too many family-less kids in the system?
• If the parents got a divorce and remarried would the step father or mother have to go through some sort of licensing process also?
• Would their fines and imprisonment for giving birth without a license, planned or unplanned/accidental births?
• Would be involved in this licensing process, who gets to determine what the requirements would be, and what would prevent the process from not becoming a social manipulation tool, e.g. parents of a certain political bent might get denied a license (e.g. remember how Obama denied IRS rights and due process to Republican political groups)?

And in the end, who says the government and the politicians that operate it could even determine if a parent would murder their kid after birth? Hey, they cannot even enforce their own Do Not Call List or run an efficient Post Office operation, and they want to dictate who can have a kid. Ridiculous and ludicrous.

2) We have often talked about the basic human need to be free and a large part of that need for freedom is economic freedom. With economic freedom we are freer to educate our kids the way we want, to start a family business, to take a better vacation, etc. And when taxes get too high which ends up infringing on our freedom, people and businesses usually take action at some point to relieve that tax oppression, usually by moving somewhere where taxes go down and freedom goes up.

We have talked about this situation any number of times. Illinois, New Jersey, and California keep shrinking in population size as the politicians in those states continually raise the tax burden on state residents. And now, according to a recent New York Post article, the same thing is happening relative to small businesses in New York City:

• John Aidan Byrne wrote back in May, 2019 that “NYC Taxes Are Squeezing Out Small Business To Florida.
• Remember, as we have discussed, there is no state income tax in Florida and other taxes, gasoline, property taxes, etc. are generally lower, giving residents and businesses more economic freedom.
• In a 2018 ranking of small business growth, it showed that Miami, Florida had overtaken New York City when it comes to small business growth.
• In fact, NYC had plummeted from first to fourth in the latest rankings of small business growth.
• Rohit Arora, the CEO of Biz2Credit which developed the rankings said: “Although New York is still booming, the cost of doing business for small business owners continues to rise. Rents continually increase, and labor costs are high and will continue to increase, since New York has enacted a law to raise the minimum wage to $15.”
• The American Legislative Exchange Council has ranked the city and state dead last in economic competitiveness.
• And while the overall economy is strong, NYC keeps raising taxes to pay for its financial problems which in turn drives out both businesses and residents.
• Mayra Rodriguez Valladares, a capital markets and regulatory consultant, is quoted in the article by estimating that New York City has only about $59 billion in assets to pay $244 billion in liabilities: “Moreover, this burden grew by an additional $1,600 for every New York City resident every year since 2014.” 
• Besides higher and higher taxes, NYC liberal politicians continue to pile more and more regulations onto city small businesses, e.g. paid sick leave, regulations that also reduce economic freedom and the profits of small businesses.

So, just another example of how American politicians continue to be totally ignorant when it comes to simple economic principles. Higher and higher taxes cause people to make rational economic decisions to keep as much of their hard earned wealth as possible which usually results in people and businesses leaving for less taxing situations. This in turn reduces the tax flow of government entities which causes them to raise tax rates to make up for the shortfall which results in more people and businesses leaving which results in lower tax revenue and the economic death spiral is underway. 

As a result you end up with the current migration situation in NYC - on average, every day 100 NYC residents leave the city and move elsewhere where the tax bite is much more reasonable. And yet the politicians they leave behind never understand why and Miami becomes the fastest growing environment for small businesses in the country.

3) Let’s finish today with the disgrace that is Nancy Pelosi. Most people probably know that on national television she tore up Trump’s State of the Union speech in total contempt for the President. We now know from video clips that this was a premeditated action since she had started ripping the pages before the end of the speech. 

In doing so she insulted and disrespected the many Americans who had their story of success told by Trump in the speech: young and old, white and black, men and women, ordinary Americans who had overcome challenges and were succeeding in America. And in a couple of flagrant rips, Pelosi ripped their stories into pieces because she is an immature, repugnant person when it comes to common decency and respect.

Well, sometimes there is karma as untold millions of people were disgusted by her behavior and some are taking actions in response to her childish antic:

• Democratic Congressman, Lee Zeldin, who is also a law professor, denounced Pelosi’s disgusting actions and said she should step down from being Speaker of the House.
• Specifically: “Nancy Pelosi should step down as Speaker. I’m confident that the American public will be directly sending her that message themselves later this year if she doesn’t read the tea leaves herself and resign on her own terms today. It’s time.”
• Jonathan Turley, who was a witness in the House impeachment proceedings and who is also a George Washington University law professor was also outraged at Pelosi’s actions: “[44 years ago] The country was deeply divided, but both parties maintained the tradition of civility and decorum. I was struck how members, even in the heat of furious debates, would not attack each other by name and followed rigid principles of decorum. They understood that they were the custodians of this institution and bore a duty to strengthen and pass along those traditions to the next generation. At that moment, she represents the House as an institution — both Republicans and Democrats. Instead, she decided to become little more than a partisan troll from an elevated position. The protests of the Democratic members also reached a new low for the House. Pelosi did not gavel out the protest. She seemed to join it. That is why I argue in the Hill that, if Pelosi does not apologize and agree to honor the principle of neutrality and civility at the State of the Union, she should resign as speaker.”
• Republican Matt Gaetz and other Republican Congressman sent a letter to the chairman of the House Ethics Committee that demanded an investigation to Pelosi’s actions.
• Specifically, they want an investigation “into Speaker Pelosi’s flagrant violation of decorum, as defined in clauses 1 and 2 of House Rule XXIII, and request a criminal referral for her potential violation of 18 U.S.C. §2071 (Concealment, removal, or mutilation of documents), following President Trump’s recent State of the Union address of February 4, 2020. Her unseemly behavior certainly warrants censure.”

So Democrats, Republicans, and law professors are all in agreement that what Pelosi did was despicable. Given that this type of agreement rarely happens in Washington, it tells you how horrible Pelosi behaved. No matter how much she hates Trump, her disrespect of the Americans that are referred to in Trump’s speech is unforgivable.

Stupidity in Chicago, economic ignorance in NYC, and unparalleled disgrace form Nancy Pelosi, a major contributor to the hatred and venom that pervades Washington D.C. Political class insanity that is more out of control than ever.

February, 2020, Part 6, Political Class Insanity: HIllary Thinks She Is Above The Law, Elizabeth Warren Says Ability and Experience Do Not Matter and Joe Biden Is Worried He Is Too Old

It is another month which means it is again time to review the latest political class insanity from Washington and around the world. Political class insanity takes many forms including the wasting of taxpayer wealth, criminal fraud within government programs, inane and stupid political quotes and actions, the inability to create and implement effective and efficient government programs, stupid and ill performing economic policies and strategies, and other forms of insanity that continue to evolve and surprise and shock us.

Let’s get started:

1) We have often talked about how politicians are pretty good at putting restrictions on us while ignoring the exact same things they force us to do. They practice the art of “do as I say not what I do.” Hilary Clinton recently put forth another such example of this elitism as outlined in an article on the Big League Politics website by Shane Trejo:

• A few months ago Clinton went on a verbal rampage attack on Presidential candidate Tulsi Gabbard.
• She accused Gabbard of a number of things including being a Russian agent who were trying to disrupt the 2020 elections.
• Clinton provided no proof of such a relationship so Gabbard went out and filed a lawsuit for defamation.
• But to sue someone like Gabbard is trying to do with Clinton someone has to serve the lawsuit papers with the person being sued, in this case, Hillary Clinton.
• Unbelievably, it is alleged that Clinton has told her Secret Service detail to not allow any process servers to get near her and thus, thwarting the lawsuit process.
• Her lawyer, Brian Dunne, told the New York Post that he is shocked by Clinton’s flagrant disrespect for the law: “I find it rather unbelievable that Hillary Clinton is so intimidated by Tulsi Gabbard that she won’t accept service of process. But I guess here we are.”It might be unbelievable but it's happening, a direct middle finger to the rule of law process in this country.
• According to the article: “Dunne said that Secret Service officials intervened to stop Clinton from being served at her Chappaqua, New York home on Tuesday. A day later, a Clinton lawyer rebuffed the process server in Washington D.C. at a law firm after the Secret Service instructed the serve to deliver the lawsuit to Clinton there.”
• Which leads on to question Clinton’s judgment and reasoning: does she actually think that Gabbard is going to go away if she blocks the process servers long enough?
• Or, more likely, does she think that libel and slander laws do not apply to her?
• Gabbard was also not happy about Clinton’s elitism: “If Hillary Clinton and her allies can successfully destroy my reputation — even though I’m a war veteran and a sitting member of Congress — then they can do it to anybody. I will not allow this blatant effort to intimidate me and other patriotic Americans into silence go unchallenged.”

At some point you have to assume that a judge will get involved and force Clinton to accept the lawsuit papers but it shows again how special politicians in this country think they are, how they can flaunt the very laws they passed in the first place.

2) If you were going to have to undergo a major operation, wouldn't you want your medical team to be comprised of the best people possible for the jobs they would be doing during your operation? When you buy a car, wouldn’t you want to feel comfortable that the most skilled people put that car together, especially the brakes. You certainly want to make sure you are getting top quality for your money, either medically or automotively.

But when it comes to government functions, that is not how at least one politician thinks:

• Elizabeth Warren, whose Presidential aspirations are fading fast, recently promised that half of her Cabinet, if elected, would made up of women and so-called “non-binary” people.
• She promised that she would put a priority on hiring gay individuals for leadership roles in her administration and force this strategy unto all Federal entities.
• She would also focus on people of color.

So rather than put the best qualified people in positions of power and influence, she would go down some kind of checklist to get a mix of people that fit her fantasy, competence and the ability to do the job be damned. It would be like you going in for brain surgery and the head of the hospital insists that a foot doctor do the operation because the foot doctor is of a specific skin color or sexual orientation.

Look, I am all for giving EVERYONE an equal chance at a job opportunity but to say we are going to fill jobs based on sexual orientation or skin color independent of the finding the best people to do the job is ludicrous. You would not do it for medical needs, you would not do it for automotive needs, we should have to do it for government needs, government needs that are funded with our tax dollars.

3) Would you hire a general contractor to do massive renovations to your home if that contractor told you up front that he was an old guy who might die and thus, not be around to see the project to completion? Would you hire him if you knew his medical history was kind of shaky and he actually was quite old?

I don't think so. So why would anyone vote for a politician who was in the same situation:

•  Joe Biden was recently asked who his Vice President candidate might be, he said it would be someone who could take over immediately because “I’m an old guy.”
• While I admire his honesty, not sure I would hire him as a President or a general contractor if he is telling me he is old and might die.
• Specifically: “It has to be demonstrated that whoever I pick is two things: one, is capable of immediately being president because I’m an old guy.”
• And yet he still wants to be President even though he is not sure he would live through it: “No, I’m serious. Look, I thank God I’m in great health. I work out. No, I’m serious. You know, I work out every morning. I’m in good shape – knock on wood, as my mother would say. I released all my medical records. But you never know. You never know what’s going on. And I’m sure what would happen is I have – some people looking would say, ‘Is the person Biden picked capable of, God forbid something happened to Biden, that they would be able to take over immediately?’”
• If he somehow lived long enough and became President at age 78, he would be the oldest President ever.
• And Dr. David Scheiner, Obama's personal doctor is not sure Biden should be running since his medical history includes high cholesterol, a past aneurysm, and “persistent” atrial fibrillation. 

Again, I am not hiring a general contractor to do massive amounts of work on my home if I know he himself has doubts about how long he will be around and he has a history of medical issues besides just being old. Why Biden is wasting his time and our time given his reality and his doubts is a shame and insane.

So today we learned that Hillary Clinton is using government resources to put herself above the law, Elizabeth Warren wants to staff her Presidential administration with people who may not be the most capable to serve particular functions based skin color and sexual orientation not ability, and even Joe Biden has doubts if Joe Biden will be around long enough to be a full term President. You cannot make this crazy stuff up but somehow American politicians do.
