VIDEO: Michelle Malkin - The Value of Foreign Diplomas
Columnist Michelle Malkin says the “establishment Republican ruling class” does not want American citizens questioning the country’s legal immigration system, wherein more than 1.2 million legal immigrants are admitted every year.
A recent study by the Center for Immigration Studies (CIS) revealed how so-called “highly skilled” foreign graduates taking coveted U.S. white collar jobs are far less educated than native born Americans.
Malkin, during a CIS panel discussion at the, said the billionaire donor class and establishment Republicans do not want Americans focused on the impact of legal immigration — where the country’s current policy has undercut Americans’ wages for decades and displaced U.S. workers from their jobs.
“It’s interesting because in sort of the mainstream establishment of the conservative movement, the kind that is essentially ruled at CPAC for year after year after year, there’s been — in my mind — not as much progress [on legal immigration issues],” Malkin said.
“And you hear it with this talking point, this platitude from many sort of defensive virtue signalers that ‘I’m against illegal immigration but for legal immigration,'” Malkin continued. “What does that mean? What numbers? How much? And who?”
....
“And the data show that by and large, the vast majority of people with H-1B visas are journeymen and they are of average skill,” Malkin said. “They are not the best and the brightest. They are not starting world shaking companies. They are not earning hundreds and thousands of patents that no American can secure and innovations that no American can come up with.”

Go Michelle Go!
Ping!
She knows! Michelle knows!!!!
ACU and CPAC were for many years heavily influenced by Grover Norquist and his open borders ilk.
Unfortunately, GOP Establishment lies when they say they are against illegal immigration.
Howie Carr today said we have three parties: The D's the R's and Trump. He is right and we knew it when we voted for him, he ran as an R and usurped the party, they still suck on ice and will continue to do so, both parties behave like the mob. There are so many I have given up on that I thought were the good guys including Inhofe, Grassley, and ironically I am trusting Graham, more these days. Add Jordan and Crenshaw to the list and the rest you can pick replacements out of the phone book.
The question is, what do we do after Trump? He just maybe the last speed bump to our eventually devolvement and collapse into Socialism...
Freakin CPAC took down their vid showing Malkin’s speech, can you believe that..?
There was just a SINGLE 20-minute seminar regarding immigration at CPAC —ridiculous. Immigration is the beating heart of conservativism yet they gave it short shrift.
They also didn’t let Laura LOOMER in there —a yuge betrayal.
What is Conservative about CPAC...?
Disappointing as hell cuz I used to be a biiiig fan of that confab:
NO MORE.
When Obama was President he intentionally put put Muslim immigrants into Southern districts around Stone Mountain. His way of 'punishing southerners'...
We can do the same. Buy a few mansions in lily white 'elite' neighborhoods around DC and fill them up with illegals and 'legal' immigrants. Let the assh*le do the work of assimilation for a few decades.
The only thing good that I can say about the Republicans is that in general, they suck less. They are the more conservative wing of the Uniparty.
