The Sacred Immigrant

For a long time, I have made the point that the Republican Party is not really a political party, in the sense that it is a coalition held together by common interests. Instead, it is more like a dumping ground for politicians. About a third of Republican office holders would prefer to be huddling with the Democrats, but the voters of their home district or state have decided the Democrats are too crazy, so ambitious politicians run as Republicans. The result is a party held together by convenience.

You see that with the immigration disaster brewing in the House. As it stands the GOP could simply do nothing on immigration and ride the wave of popular support into the election. That would be the smart thing. Instead, they are trying to pass an immigration bill that has no chance of making it through the Senate. Now, this could be good politics if it is popular with their voters. Instead, they are about to pass a bill highly unpopular with their voters and sure to remind Trump supporters why they hate the GOP.

A leaked draft of House Speaker Paul Ryan’s (R-WI) amnesty deal could lead to the “biggest” amnesty for illegal aliens in United States history, experts tell Breitbart News.
Ryan’s immigration deal would go beyond giving amnesty to only the nearly 800,000 illegal aliens who are enrolled in the President Obama-created Deferred Action for Childhood Arrivals (DACA) program.

According to a leaked draft of the amnesty deal, obtained by Breitbart News, Ryan’s plan would allow the entire “DACA population” to be eligible for amnesty so long as they meet low educational, work and criminal requirements, prompting the amnesty to explode in size.

That DACA population could include the nearly 3.5 million DACA-enrolled and DACA-eligible illegal aliens, and even more illegal aliens who arrive in the U.S. to fraudulently obtain the amnesty.

NumbersUSA Governmental Affairs Director Rosemary Jenks told Breitbart News that Ryan’s amnesty will — at the least — allow 1.8 million illegal aliens to stay in the U.S.

“This has the potential to turn into the biggest amnesty we’ve ever had,” Jenks said.

The leaked amnesty deal reveals that Ryan and the Republican establishment may even be considering going beyond giving amnesty to DACA illegal aliens.

A second amnesty is included in the leaked draft, one that would allow the children of temporary foreign guest workers and “anyone who has a ‘contingent nonimmigrant status’” to apply for the amnesty.

This amnesty for the children of temporary foreign workers does not have a numerical cap, allowing for an endless amount of foreign nationals to obtain amnesty through this avenue known as “Pathway Concept B.”

“The winners are the DREAMers cause they get their amnesty, Democrats because they don’t have to concede much to get the amnesty and donor-class Republicans who are interested in perpetuating the current system,” Center for Immigration Studies Director of Policy Jessica Vaughan told Breitbart News of Ryan’s leaked amnesty deal.

It is tempting to blame this on the secret “donor party” that allegedly manipulates the inner party, like some sort of Turkish conspiracy. There is no doubt that business pushes hard for unlimited “guest worker” visas. No matter how many indentured servants they are granted, it is never enough. Who is pushing for amnesty? In whose interests is it to hand a ballot to millions of foreigners? That actually hurts the cheap labor lobby, as it removes exploitable people from the labor pool.

This is an example of why so-called conservatives lost every fight over the last thirty years. They start with the assumption that the other team is working from facts and reason, motivated by a desire for some tangible goal. In this case, immigration patriots will demand everyone believe Paul Ryan is getting sacks of cash to push this ridiculous amnesty bill through the House. Sure, some of the provisions are bought by lobbyists, but the amnesty stuff has no obvious constituency in the Republican Party.

The fact is, people are more often motivated by a desire to be seen as on the side of angels, even if it brings personal risk. Just look at the number of pols who have driven a hole into their career opposing Trump. As they go under for the last time, they are smugly certain they are doing the Lord’s work. For many in our political class, open borders is a moral issue now. They want to grant the blessing of your town to the world, because they feel righteous as they watch it play out.

This suicidal altruism is not just confined to the political class. Any time the immigration question comes up, there are people who will blurt out “I’m not opposed to legal immigration. It is illegal immigration I oppose.” That is why the political class is working to legalize every conceivable form of immigration. If there are literally no laws against coming here, then there can be no illegal immigration, and everyone is happy. It is the natural result of sacralizing the immigrant.

It is why arguments from facts and reason about immigration have had no impact on the political class. Even as the public begins to get serious about the issue, the politicians are unresponsive, because they correctly see that the immigrant remains a magical figure in the mind of the public. Until a large majority of the voters become hostile to immigration in the spiritual sense, nothing changes. Yeah, the cheap labor lobbies play into this and exploit it, but the root problem here is immigrant worship.

I wonder if something else might be at work here, too. Something even dumber? Consider our social programs. They’re all ponzi rackets.

It’s probably over $300k now. My retired parents were career civil servant bureaucrats.

If you are a politician you are by nature a creep. You lie all the time, you suck up to the people above you and you detest those below you. When you retire you know you will make millions at lobbying and law firms that continue to screw dirt people at the expense of your elite masters. Deep down you know all this and really detest yourself. Being pro-immigration is your one shot at redemption, at being able for once to call yourself a good person.

Much of the leftist stupidity we have in this country originated from European immigrants from the post-Civil War era.

Communism and socialism are not native-born philosophies – they were imported by European immigrants in the latter half of the 19th century.

Without all of that immigration – and importation of corrupt European “ideas” – we’d likely have a VERY different country right now if the natives who were already here had worked double time to populate the country instead of importing more people.

The revalorization of the family, honoring the traditional mother and father who sire children and then raise them, will take a return to the time when a man (or single mom) could support a family at a middle-class level on one income alone. That hasn’t been possible, for the most part, since around 1970 – almost a half-century ago. It has been that long since a man could graduate from high school and get a good-paying blue collar job down at the factory, job site or union hall.

In recent decades, two streams usually separate – immigration and the military – have sometimes touched, such as when a number of elected representatives raised the idea of forming an American Foreign Legion, based upon the French concept, i.e., foreigners who enlist to fight America’s wars, and after a specified interval of service – perhaps 10 years – would be rewarded with citizenship.

“The fact is, people are more often motivated by a desire to be seen as on the side of angels, even if it brings personal risk.“ True. And how do Americans in 2018 know what the “moral” side is? My theory is that they are informed by the moral framework developed at our elite universities. Then that moral framework is: 1) inculcated to every student who passes through those universities, making it a perceived marker of intelligence & status. and; 2) Disseminated by all forms of mass media including press, radio, film, TV & Internet. So if you want to… Read more »

The descendants of the Frankfurt School have promulgated a narrative where whites are uniquely evil due to the Inquisition, the American Indian genocide, slavery, and the Holocaust. These descendants have incentivized the sociopathic, high IQ gentiles to join them. This coalition desires a future where a high IQ elite rule over a low IQ brown mass.

This coalition believes that the extermination of badwhites will inaugurate their glorious future. Massive immigration into white countries is crucial to this vision. Either the badwhites or their attackers will prevail. It is that simple. Make your plans accordingly.

It is all related to western egalitarian and universel values. After de-colonisation a new “normative-empire” replaced it. It legitimised itself with stories of the crimes of the “old empire” and the new empire would make it good again. 3.rd world migration is a part of “normative empire”. There is a belief of a new human being realised that transends old boundaries with migration. It a moral mission and to reject it is immoral. It is “racism” to not have humanity as a family value.

My comment is obvious and well known. Corporations want cheap labor. They do not want to be saddled with all the additional expenses of employing uneducated, low IQ immigrants from third world countries. The taxpayers pickup all additional expenses and the Corporations keep the profit. I was in the Corp world for 20 years and have operated my own business since the late 80’s. Corporate welfare and money handed out to political lackeys to facilitate the continuance of the public cash cow is the order of the day. This has nothing to do with politics.

For years I’ve thought I should start something like Immigrant Protection Services, Inc. The way it would work is anyone engaging in activity they wanted “protected” would simply rent an immigrant and the immigrant would do things like answer the door and telephone. Upon seeing the immigrant and understanding what they were anyone coming to investigate the “activity” would immediately stand-down. Who was that football player who was convicted of dog-fighting maybe ten years ago? I’ve said since that incident he should have just hired several immigrants to have answered the door and make themselves visible… Bingo!… authorities gone. Kind… Read more »

Why, given the century+ head start by the Spanish and Portuguese in colonizing the new world, are their former colonies still unable to form and maintain the kind of societies their own people wish to live in? How many of these countries are reliant on remittances and drug money from the US to stay afloat? How many immigrants from these countries live off welfare in one form or another? In a culturally confident society we would be asking and debating these questions.

The combination of Spanish and Catholic is enough to freeze a nation in the amber of it’s worst qualities, like Argentina and to a lesser degree Uruguay. Chile opted out of that fate, temporarily at least, at the point of a gun. Add low IQ to that mix and you have the rest of Latin America. Brazil is a special case, really two nations and two people. Soon enough it will be two nations.

There are probably more middle-class people who advocate amnesty, etc., than we would like to believe. I imagine a big part of the reason is that serious discussion of the issues is suppressed by the media, academia, religious organizations, the political class — and, increasingly, employers. The enforcement of political correctness in and by these institutions is crucial to keeping as many normies as possible in line. And so deviations from the narrative are increasingly punished. A lesson for our side is that having a serious, credible, sizeable presence in influencing public opinion is vitally important. It makes ordinary people… Read more »

Frankly, the white voters have only themselves to blame. They are the ones who keep voting for snakes like Ryan, McConnell and McCain. If White America really wants to stop immigration all they have to do is toss whores like Ryan and McConnell out. But they keep voting for the same losers and sellouts time and again and blame them “furren darkies” for the sorry state.

Really, maybe Ethnic Nationalism should be defined as the art of blaming others for your failures.

I agree to a point. A big problem is whites simply by and large do not give that much of a damn about whites. “Is it good for the Whites?” Huh? Race and common American heritage, and Western civilization, it’s not enough for them to unite. It’ll take whites becoming a minority, but they might do what our elites want and almost entirely mix away the DNA.

They really are playing with fire on this one.

The Kate Steinle shooting recently pissed off a lot of normies who usually just grin and bear it every day.

The immigration racket is a classic exemplar of how the deep-state – big government and its appurtenances – work, i.e., by privatizing whatever gains are to be had, whether moral, electoral or fiscal, and by socializing (off-loading) the costs onto the electorate, a.k.a. the dirt people. In the ultra-exclusive, high-dollar gated communities where so many of the so-called “elites” live, how many of those immigrants are to be found as neighbors, rather than simply menial laborers to do the work the wealthy privileged won’t do? Probably not many at all, for statistical purposes, nearly none. The cloud people have no… Read more »

Immigrant worship has been around for a long time. You see it in the great prewar movies of Frank Capra. In one of them there is a scene – at the Lincoln Memorial (!) – where two quintessential movie WASPs (I think it was James Stewart and Jean Arthur) symbolically hand the reins over to a nonthreatening, small, lovably eccentric Italian fellow (played by a jewish actor) who is proud of his enormous family. Needless to say, the Stewart and Arthur characters are childless.

There is no Democrat in the universe capable of generating such chaos and dysfunction within the GOP as Paul Ryan has managed.

Becoming a politician to line up a lucrative future career as a lobbyist or fixer or corporate board toady makes sense. However, why do some people run for office when there is truly no chance of victory? Is this just self-destructive ego or a religious impulse of the kind Zman describes? Why, for example, does anyone run for California governor or senator, as a Republican? At least any given Democrat has a nonzero chance of winning. Might as well have Fred Phelps run for mayor of West Hollywood.

PC Republicans act as though they’re the righteous, but I think this is about genocidal class war. The white upper classes hate their white social inferiors, and can act on that hatred, through this proxy war.

Early on they can starve out their class enemies, by cutting them out of work. Later on, their brown and black enforcers can slaughter the remainder.

The virtue-signaling is just the socially acceptable expression of murderous hatred.
