California and Oregon have decided to damn the Constitution of the United States. Because they’re stupid. A new law is going to make it harder for freeloaders to get their Green Cards and the left is throwing a fit. And Hollywood pulls the movie, The Hunt, because it is about a bunch of white, elitist liberals hunting conservative “deplorables” from the south. That is a huge mistake. And Campus Reform is at it again, making our colleges’ Social Justice Warriors look stupid.
Let’s get back to some of the mundane stories of the week.
If at First You Don’t Succeed, Cheat!
The Huffington Post is reporting that the governor of Oregon wants to sign into a law that would ban Presidential candidates from appearing on the ballot if they do not release their tax returns. Gov. Kate Brown said she would definitely sign a bill stating, “We have to hold our elected officials accountable. I think this is just one way of doing it.”
This comes on the heels of Gov. Gavin Newsom, the idiot governor from California, signing a law that would require the release of tax returns in order to be put on the ballot in California. It took about eight minutes for two lawsuits to be filed and against the state for the law and there is very little chance that this law is going to go anywhere. In fact, leftist former California governor Jerry Brown vetoed the same law in 2017 because he did not think it had a chance of holding up in court.
And it doesn’t. There is nothing in the Constitution that allows a state governor to manipulate a ballot against someone he doesn’t like. This law is going to be overturned and overturned big. If this gets to the Supreme Court, this will probably be a unanimous ruling. But I think it is something more than just overzealous governors that will do anything to be gnats in the face of President Trump, annoying him.
This is just another way to cheat the system and make sure there is never another republican politician becoming President again. Don’t forget, democrats have introduced lots of policies that would affect republican votes. The democrats want felons to vote, even if they are still in prison. Mind you, it’s against the Constitution but why worry about that. They give illegal aliens IDs and drivers licenses. That’s bad enough, but they also auto-enroll “citizens to vote. This is what’s happening in California. You think there might be a paperwork snafu that would allow illegal aliens to vote? Noooo.
Then there are the voter ID laws. Democrats don’t want it because it ts…wait for it…racist. In New York, you have to have seventeen different types of identification (I’m not kidding here) to register for a gun. But we don’t need ID to vote? What crap. Then there are the states, democratically controlled, that want districts to pick up ballots for voters. Gee, nothing corrupt could come of that.
Democrats want power. Nothing more. They will do whatever they can to win.They don’t care how they do it, don’t care about ethics and have no trouble cheating. Remember: “the end justify the means.” This was a quote used by AoC when asked about why she has not been honest a lot of the time.
It Is a Privilege to be Here
The Huffington Post reports that the Trump administration is changing the rules when applying or renewing a green card or visas. This law would make changes to something known as the “public charge” rule. Basically, what this rule states that if a person is on a visa or green charge and is a public charge (which is someone who is on some monetary assistance, that can be considered when renewing the visa or green card. The Department of Homeland Security has decided that they wanted to add non-monetary service such as Medicaid and the Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program (SNAP) programs.
So, basically, the government thinks that, if you are here as immigrant, you should not have access to these programs. I don’t see a problem with this. But the Huffington Post does.
They first point out that medicaid and SNAP programs are non-monetary programs that should not be bundled up into the welfare programs. They also say that these also are weighed along with English proficiency, income and health conditions. They also state that 8.3 million children, who depend on these programs and are American citizens might be affected and lose their benefits. Of course, the fail to mention why.
Of course the article goes on with nonsensical reasons. Somehow, only the rich would get visas and green cards and those applying might withdraw their applications. The economy will tank and, of course, it’s racist.
I read the article and knew it would be infuriating. And I’ll say it again: I wish the United States would take the immigration policy from the Mexican Constitution, convert it to English and make it the 28th Amendment to the Constitution. Listen, if someone comes to our country, they should acclimate to our country, its values and its language. And you should come into this country with something to offer us. No foreigner has a “right” to be here. It’s a privilege. And we, like every other country in the world, have the right to chose who lives here. Mexico has that exact law in their Constitution. So does most of Central and South America.
And that also goes with governmental benefits. Illegal aliens cost this country between $140 and $200 billion a year. We’re not even sure how much it costs because we don’t know how many illegal aliens we have. I don’t think it’s unreasonable that someone comes to this country should be self-sufficient and not need to take our resources that are reserved for our populace. Now, I’m not saying that someone with a green card and has been working for ten years, loses his job and shouldn’t expect help from the government. I’m talking about the people that come to this country, do the minimum and then go on every form of political assistance. Those leaches need their visas and green cards pulled away and sent back.
I Would Have Seen it
There was a movie released that had all the conservatives going crazy. It was an ultra-violent film about a group of rich leftists that kidnap a bunch of southern, working class “deplorables.” The movie was sold as a satire to the political climate of today. Needless to say, the right went nuts and spent all week last week whining about how terrible the media is to the right. They mentioned that this is another language about the incitful language of the left. Here’s the trailer:

OK, everyone calm down. It’s a movie and not even the first of its kind. Hell, it’s not the first of its kind this decade. Does anyone remember The Hunger Games? Pretty sure the premise was pretty much the same. The other thing that kind of trips me out is that this seems like the kind of movie that leans on he conservative side. This movie isn’t complicated. The heros are probably going to be successful and these “deplorables” are easy to sympathize with while the bad guys look like evil sociopaths. I actually wanted to see the movie.
This is what the left does: ruin things for everyone else. I hope the right doesn’t go down the same road.
I Love It When Stupid Is On Purpose
The group, Campus Reform, just released a video showing just how our college students have been indoctrinated into the SJW belief system. For those who do not know who Campus Reform is, they are a conservative student organization that has committed to fighting the left wing policies that our colleges are pushing on to our youth.
One of the things Campus Reform will do is confront our college SJW students with satirical questions. They have been known to say they are quoting Barrack Obama and then we find it is Donald Trump quoted. The when the students find out what was said came from Trump instead of Obama, their reaction is typically priceless. You can watch their videos on YouTube and I suggest you do. Some of them are hysterical.
In this bit, the Campus Reform student asked students and faculty of George Washington University, one of the most liberal universities in the country, asking to replace the white male that is used in the walk/don’t walk signs at street corners. He had a picture suggesting twelve different victim group to replace the white man including a man in a rainbow pattern, a woman, a brown person and a handicap person. Watch the video below:
At the end of the video, there were only two that really said this was not doable. One said it would be really expensive, but signed the petition anyway. The other just waved the guy off and said he was interested in this garbage. But Campus Reform reported that most of the students and one faculty member actually signed the petitions.
So, good job to our universities in teaching our students.
The News is Going South
Tomorrow we are going to need to talk about a couple things that are not good. First, China is having a big problem with Hong Kong. Apparently the citizens of Hong Kong do not like being oppressed by China. So far, the protests have been warm as far as the violence goes but things are beginning to ratchet up.
The U.S. economy got some real bad news today. Could we be heading toward a recession? Wall Street believes so.
Finally, another ICE facility was attacked last night. Nobody was hurt but officials are sure that ICE officials were being targeted. All this is because Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez’s comments about ICE facilities being concentration camps. In an interview, AoC doubled down and held to her statement that the facilities were concentration camps. I wonder how the media is going to react when an ICE officer is actually killed because the left supports these attacks.
Folks, this is what a modern civil war is going to look like in this country and it is only getting worse.
