(Original title too long: Donald Trump doubles down on his stand AGAINST TAKING IN MORE SYRIAN MUSLIMS in opposition to the position of the Republican establishment).
Donald Trump is facing down the Republican establishment pressure that has already prompted candidates former Gov. Jeb Bush (R-FL) and Sen. Marco Rubio (R-FL) to announce they WOULD provide residency to Muslim refugees and economic freeloaders now fleeing Islamic countries to hop aboard the welfare gravy train in the West.
“There are two ways Islamofascists plan to conquer America — one by violent jihad, the other by mass Muslim immigration. They are NOT refugees, NOT asylum seekers – they are conquering armies posing as refugees, performing ‘al hijra’ – mass migration to conquer infidel lands for Islam.” Barack Hussein Obama has enabled it. Donald Trump wants to stop it.
Breitbart “Look, from a humanitarian standpoint, I’d love to help. But we have our own problems. We have so many problems that we have to solve first,” Trump declared on Wednesday night’s broadcast of Hannity. “We are the only country in the world whose immigration system puts the needs of other nations ahead of our own. That must change,” Trump wrote in his August migration policy paper that has supercharged his 2016 campaign.
On Sept. 10, a White House spokesman said Barack Obama would grant residence to AT LEAST 10,000 additional Syrians in 2016, along with the routine inflow of 70,000 refugees and 1 million new immigrants.
Jeb Bush says the United States should accept MORE Middle East refugees: “We should accept — we’re a country that has a noble tradition of accepting refugees. We need to make sure that they’re not part of ISIS or something like that,” Bush told Fox and Friends. (How do you do that when you aren’t screening any of them?)
Marco Rubio echoed Bush. “I would be open to that if it can be done in a way that allows us to ensure that among them are not people who are part of a terrorist organization who are using this crisis,” Rubio told Boston Herald Radio on September 8th. This proposal could result in the admittance of a many refugees. “The vast and overwhelming majority of people who are seeking refuge are not terrorists, of course, but you always are concerned about that,” Rubio said. (And how do you verify that when you aren’t screening them?)
Trump’s pro-America stance on the issue of immigration echoes that of the late-Democratic Congresswoman and Civil Rights champion Barbara Jordan– who in pushing for immigration reductions– famously said: “The national interest comes first, last, and always.”
As Trump has narrowed his focus on a populist immigration platform, he has seen his poll numbers soar with key voting groups, including women and black Americans, who have been most negatively impacted by the federal government’s intertwined immigration and cheap-labor policies.
Trump explained that Muslim countries should be willing to take in the Muslim migrants: “The Gulf states [are] tremendously wealthy. You have five groups of people, six groups, they’re not taking anybody. Saudi Arabia, Qatar, Bahrain, these are tremendously wealthy and powerful from the standpoint of money. They — they’re not taking anybody. Russia’s not taking. Nobody’s taking. [But we’re] supposed to take — we have to straighten out our own problems,” Trump said.
Indeed, as The Washington Post has reported, “The Arab world’s wealthiest nations are doing next to nothing for Syria’s refugees.” In 2013, the United States sent approximately $13.5 billion in foreign aid to Middle Eastern nations.
Rubio and Bush’s plan to receive migrants– so long as they are not terrorists– may prove difficult to implement based on previous statements from immigration officials. Former president of the Citizenship and Immigration Services Council– which represents 12,000 United States Citizenship Immigration Service Officers– has said that his agency is already too overburdened to properly screen all of the visa applications– a problem which would be greatly exacerbated if Rubio or Bush’s mass migration plan were implemented:
It is essential to warn the public about the threat that ISIS will exploit our loose and lax visa policies to gain entry to the United States… Many millions come legally to the U.S. through our wide open immigration policy every year—whether as temporary visitors, lifetime immigrants, refugees, asylum-seekers, foreign students, or recipients of our “visa waiver program”… Our government cannot effectively track these foreign visitors and immigrants… Applications for entry are rubber-stamped… We’ve become the visa clearinghouse for the Muslim world.
This is not the first time immigration expansionists have ignored the warnings of immigration officials. The president of the Immigration and Customs Enforcement union, Chris Crane, wrote in 2013 as the Schumer-Rubio bill was being pushed through the Senate: “Senator Rubio left unchanged legislation that he himself admitted to us in private was detrimentally flawed and must be changed.”
“Senator Rubio, who promised ICE officers and Sheriffs that he would take steps to repair the bill’s provisions that gut interior enforcement, has abandoned that commitment. He directly misled law enforcement officers,” Crane declared.
They will be here and they’ll all vote Demonrat.
I hope Trump makes this a debate issue, even if he's not asked.
Is there any other candidate who says anything similar to this? This is exactly why I like Trump!
Then you are very well-spoken! Trump has the best policy researchers and writers on his team. He is sometimes off-the-cuff when he ad libs, but his official comments are always spot-on.
I get the impression Trump has barely started to get revved up.
The Big Show should be something to behold. Trump is already running rings around everybody and he’s not even breaking a sweat.
How in the heck can we run background checks on hundred thousand Syrians? Syria is in total chaos. Do we rely on police reports from ISIS? Or from police records of the Syrian dictator? May be the third faction who is ruling part of Syria can be relied on? Oh wait, that faction is Al-Qaeda!
Sen. Cruz is supported by this man: Peter Denis Sutherland.
- He is a big money donor to Cruz, is the boss at Goldman Sachs International, and;
- Mickey Kantor, the US Trade Minister, credited him with being the father of globalization, and;
- He is on the steering committee of the Bilderberg Group, is an Honorary Chairman of the Trilateral Commission (2010 -), was Chairman of the Trilateral Commission (Europe) (2001–2010) and was vice chairman of the European Round Table of Industrialists (2006–2009), and;
- was appointed by United Nations Secretary General Kofi Annan as his Special Representative for Migration. In this position, he was responsible for promoting the establishment of a Global Forum on Migration and Development, a state-led effort open to all UN members that is meant to help governments better understand how migration can benefit their development goals.
So...politicians are owned by who donates money to them.
I don’t know what Cruz says, and I do not care. I do not trust Sen. Ted Cruz.
Bull Ony
FDR sent a ship load of Jewish refugees back to Nazi Germany where they perished in the Death Camps.
Jeb Bush is a GOPe useful idiot
Your exactly right!!!
Someone’s grand scheme is being executed, and the us federal government clearly supports said scheme.
Evil is on the march.
Me too.
You would think that most people would not want to flush America down the pipes into an Islamic shit hole.
But democrats do.
I know that Sen Cruz has received donations from GS, but I don’t think they’re his biggest donations. (IIRC.)
IIRC, wasn’t the GS donation in the $10K area? Not much, compared to Club for Growth’s and Woodforest Bank’s donations....which I’ve already expressed my concern about, previously ;-)
How do we know that this Sutherland guy has much influence on Cruz? Not saying he doesn’t, but are there any links, etc, specifically to he and Cruz?
Sutherland’s views on immigration are scary as heck, btw.
From your previous Wiki link, on him....
Sutherland strongly advocates liberal immigration policies and mass immigration into the European Union. Sutherland gave his opinion to the UK’s Lords home affairs committee on 21 June 2012 as being (a) that “at the most basic level individuals should have freedom of choice” about working and studying in other countries and that EU states should stop targeting “highly skilled” migrants (and, conversely, placing restrictions on low-skilled migrants). Sutherland also argues (b) that migration is a “crucial dynamic for economic growth” and that this is the case “however difficult it may be to explain this to the citizens of those states”. Sutherland’s stated opinions on policy were (a) that “it was fundamentally important for states to cooperate on migration policy rather than developing their own policies in isolation as ‘no state is or can be an island’”[39] (b) that multiculturalism is both inevitable and desirable: “It’s impossible to consider that the degree of homogeneity which is implied by the other argument can survive because states have to become more open states, in terms of the people who inhabit them” and also (c) that “the European Union, in my view, should be doing its best to undermine” any “sense of our homogeneity and difference from others”.[40]
Wait until Trump focuses on California. California will be in play. Trump has a psychological formula that will shock democrats how quickly California will go for Trump. That formula is working like clockwork. that is why Trump is so confident. He is getting everything he wants.
When does the Love Train stop at KennyBunkPort, Maine?
I’m not trying to badmouth anyone. But I look far and wide for information, trying to steer clear of disinformation, of which there exists a great deal online.
The Lame Cherry blog has some of the best intelligence on the candidates.
Ted Cruz Funny Money.

Trump just won the nomination
Many blacks and Hispanics especially those who have been in the military will agree with this.
Ask almost any vet what they thought of people in Afghanistan or Iraq. The culture there is so depraved, so corrupt. No civilized place would want masses of that type people
This where the 25% of blacks supporting him comes from
