That sounds about right.

Open Borders for 1.3 billion Chinese “workers”.

Buy a Little Red Book now, avoid the compulsory rush.

To my knowledge, TPA is not a treaty.

a provision that allows for the “free flow of workers” between countries, essentially creating a backdoor to “unrestricted immigration.”>

Lots of people like to fancy themselves as favoring free markets, open markets, etc. By any rational definition of the term "free markets", there should be a free flow of workers just as there is a free flow of capital and goods.

Sometimes when we just can't see how somone could support open borders and no restrictions on the flow of workers, it might well be that they are true free marketers, including the free flow of workers.

Globalists are true free marketers. I'm not, nor is anyone else who thinks there should be controls on who and how many can enter the US.

People should really think it all the way through when they claim to be for free markets and free trade.

But since the TPA does not require 2/3 of the Senate for approval it is not a treaty.

....” allows for the “free flow of workers” between countries, essentially creating a backdoor to “unrestricted immigration”....

No surprise there...that has been the Global Agenda for this side of the ocean between Canada..US..Mexico and S. America.

It's also "Forced migration" caused by conflicts.

I get irritated that NEWS Pundits get the stage for something we knew all along! As if we didn't know. Kinda makes me irritated that some of us here have been warning that this is why the border will NOT be closed or monitored more than for the “ease” for flow for these “employees” to travel.

That is why you will also see our Presidential Candidates "lean" toward anything that might be misconstrued as open borders without actually agreeing with amnesty etc. They have no choice....we will become ONE trading block here and nobody is going to stop that.

Then you'll see wages drop for the influx....Liberals see that as "fair" that everyone has a chance to earn a living....but it's really about major companies keeping their costs down so they can continue to enlarge their companies....under the idea they are building other countries infrastructures... Round and round we go...and we pay for it all!

I'm NOT a Globalist but I do make a point to see what they're up to. Once you do that you understand the entire "system" among nations and their leaders operates and makes decisions based on the Global Agenda. They are ALL on board. It's simply a matter of getting the best deals for thier county.

Yet our supposedly “conservative” House could defund these operations. But they won’t. They’re all in it together.

On the one hand, I certainly wouldn’t put this past Obama.

On the other hand, it’s being reported by Dick Morris.

Even a broke clock is right twice a day, but it always helps to triple check Dick Morris...quadruple check is better.

All: Another secret deal/treaty with only God knowing what’s in it and what it commits the US to?

TPP — Is this also a backdoor to climate change regs?

Below may not be the best of sources, but I just listened to the Manning interview last night and intended to check out his org.
