Good news abounds lately for America. Jobs numbers continue to soar and, per a new CNN poll, Americans have grown more confident in the direction of the country than at any time in a decade. Not surprisingly, President Trump’s job approval ratings also are on the rise, particularly among independents. In spite of these successes – or perhaps because of them – the president’s critics continue to direct the most extreme possible language at him, invective that reached full-scale apoplexy regarding our country’s border policies.
The lawful separation of children from illegal immigrants who cross our border without permission has elicited a cacophony of wildly hyperbolic condemnations, and not only from the rabidly anti-Trump quarters of the left and the mainstream media. Former first lady Laura Bush wrote that border enforcement is “cruel” and “immoral” and reminiscent of World War II Japanese internment camps. Never mind the misery that her husband’s administration brought to innocent children in far-flung war zones.

We are not Nazis. Controlling who enters our country is not racist, mean-spirited, or xenophobic. After decades of permitting a dangerous and porous border, we have a man in the White House showing what real leadership looks like. This administration is merely demanding that we address the border crisis with smarts as well as compassion. As Trump has shown on so many issues, his first priority will not be to please the borderless predilections of the globalist Davos elites, but rather the safety and prosperity of the American citizens he serves.

Last year, I sat and watched a German documentary. ‘Johan’ had gone off to Peru and did a 15-min piece over this local jail-house/prison. The deal was, when you got sentenced for a year or two....your wife and kids came to the jail-house with you. They had a studio-room set up and the family lived right there in the prison.
Naturally, the German journalist asked a lot of questions. Nothing made sense. Weren’t there lots of rapists and men in the prison for assault? Yes. But the chief guy in charge of the prison said that it was proper for the wife and kids to be with the husband in the jail system....to ‘keep the family together’.
I sat there at the end and just kept thinking....this was the wrong method of handling the mess, but obviously the logic of ‘keeping the family’ together was overriding common sense. I see this episode heading in the same direction.
But demonizing the opposition when your own group is stupid sheep works so well..... Except Hillary found out that some of us are proud to be Gun Toten, Bible Believing, Redneck Deplorables from Pennsyltucky.
The left proves Godwins law every day.
A friend of mine who is a judge found he could save the county millions, save the jobs and families of the convicted, by using mandatory ankle bracelet incarceration, strict drug testing,and lots of family and individual counseling on mandatory jail sentences for DUI or DWI mandatory jail sentences.
Unless you are like my friend who I noticed he only drank when around his wife to tolerate her abusive behavior.
The left also proves the Peter Principle and Ron White’s famous statement, “You can’t fix stupid!”
“The left proves Godwins law every day.”
I made a similar comment on another thread from my observation of my Facebook page where a couple of raging libs I went to high school with are flooding my feed with posts that read like proofs of Godwin’s Law being fronted as proper substitutes for reason and logic.
Hungary is to step up its anti-immigration measures with a new 25 percent special tax on aid groups which support migration. Prime Minister Viktor Orban's government has been among the most hostile to immigration in Europe and was re-elected in a landslide victory in April on a pledge to crack down on NGOs which it says undermines Europe's integrity by supporting migrants. It says it needs to introduce the tax because creating a defence against illegal immigration creates a significant burden on the national budget.
The human rights body the Council of Europe is set to give an opinion on the legality of the bill on Friday, but the Hungarian government says it will not wait to hear what they have to say. A previous version of the bill had targetted foreign backed NGOs, but that clause has now been dropped. GULYÁS GERGELY, who works as a minister directly accountable to Orban, said the solution to migration would be through the better protection of European borders. "Reception hotspots must be established outside the EU", he said. "There should be a decision made on someone's refugee status. Europe must be able to defend both its land and sea borders."
Meanwhile Foreign Minister Peter Szijarto said that his government was protecting his country from a George Soros backed immigration front that includes the European Commission and the United Nations High Commissioner for Human Rights.
First, he was wrong to sling that into his article. Two different things. Bush declared war on terrorists. These people are willingly sneaking in the back door.
Second, we need to start calling it what it really is: invasion. We are being invaded. I'm glad President Trump is forcing the issue. Maybe word will spread that you just can't come into the country through a back door.

Dreamers.
The next generation of “dreamers” are being imported from Central America before we resolve the fate of the 4 million already here.
DEPORT all of them. Every single illegal alien. No exceptions. No excuses.
Part of the reason that we have these children in custody is that we have to determine whether or not these adults that they are traveling with are indeed their parents. The coyote know that we have a soft spot for children, and they work to exploit that.

The media/democrat complex is whipping up this smoke screen to distract from the implications of the IG Reports Damning evidence. They dont understand it yet that Trump thrives on chaos. This will end up as a double loss for the democrats when they overplay their hand.
Lets try not to pay attention to the squirrels.
If you were to ask any of these lefty wieners to write just one paragraph, defining what a “Nazi” really is/was, you’d have a paragraph of MSM talking points.
Most of them don’t know. What they “know” is what they’ve been ordered to regurgitate, on cue. Singing in harmony with the dems, it never ends.
They know the word “Nazis” makes some conservatives flinch, especially RINOs running for re-election.
I say, ignore them...for they know not what they do.
If that’s true then Mexico is a Nazi state. They protect their borders better that we do.
International-socialists call everyone to the right of Trotsky national-socialists so whatever we do, we will be called nazi’s.
And it’s strange, since when do commies hate camps? I thought they loved gulags or re-education camps an dlove to see them filled up...
Any policy the lunatic left disagrees with makes you a Nazi in their eyes and their friends in the media.
From the Irish Times
Hungary is poised to pass a law on Wednesday to allow the imprisonment of people who help illegal migrants, ignoring criticism from the European Union, the UN refugee agency and NGOs, and a late plea from a major democracy watchdog.
On World Refugee Day, parliament is due to vote on the so-called Stop Soros Bill, which is named after George Soros, a liberal philanthropist whom Hungarian leader Viktor Orban accuses of plotting to overwhelm the EU with Muslim migrants.
Mr Orban’s government enjoys a two-thirds majority and will easily pass the Bill unless it heeds a call for postponement of the vote from the Venice Commission, which advises the Council of Europe on legal and constitutional matters.
The commission said its president Gianni Buquicchio had “called on the Hungarian parliament not to proceed with the adoption of the law prior to the publication of the commission’s opinion this coming Friday”.
If parliament refused to wait, Mr Buquicchio asked it “at least to take into account the commission’s recommendations as they appear in the draft opinion which has already been sent to the authorities” in Budapest.
The Bill states that “those who provide financial means . . . or conduct this organisational activity [for illegal immigration] on a regular basis will be punishable with up to one year in prison”.
The proposals also seek to forbid people who enter Hungary from another country that is deemed safe from gaining asylum – making it all but impossible for anyone, even those fleeing a war zone like Syria, from receiving refugee protection.
