The Diversity Report #31

 A selection of articles and video showcasing the benefits of diversity, equity and inclusion: 

• Hear, hear: "America Is Not A ‘Nation Of Immigrants’"--The Federalist. In a repeat of the 1986 amnesty deal (which gave illegals amnesty but whose promised border security never materialized), a Republican--Florida Rep. Maria Elvira Salazar--has proposed a bill that would provide amnesty for any illegals that have been in the U.S. for 5 or more years. And just as Reagan did in 1986, Salazar is spewing the old nonsense about the U.S. being a nation of immigrants. But the author of this piece, John Daniel Davidson, is having none of that:

This is wrong. We’re not a nation of immigrants, we’re a nation of settlers. The people who founded America came to settle it, and settle it they did. They were not immigrating to an established nation, they were forging a nation out of a vast, largely unpopulated wilderness. Those who came after, in subsequent waves throughout the eighteenth and nineteenth centuries, most often pushed west, further into the wilderness, expanding the frontier of our nation and settling it along the way. Indeed the phrase itself, “nation of immigrants,” is nonsense. Immigrants by definition don’t create a nation, they become part of an established nation by assimilating into it.

• Wealthy elites most butt-hurt: "Bloomberg: ‘Golden Age’ of Mass Migration Ends for Business"--Breitbart.  Quoting from the Bloomberg article:

For as long as most of us can remember, business has been able to call on a ready supply of foreign workers. The giants of Silicon Valley, farmers and food processors, hotels and restaurants, housebuilders and megastores: All have dealt with labor shortages by recruiting immigrants. One result has been an astonishing demographic transformation: 16% of the British population, 20% of the Swedish population, 19% of the German population and 14.3% of the US population were born abroad. 

"Labor shortages" my a**. It would be more accurate to state that they have successfully stagnated American wages for the past 50 years "by recruiting immigrants" and firing Americans. 

• "Illegals Have Been Stealing American Jobs for Decades—but One ‘Trick of the Trades’ Could Change Everything"--Revolver. From the article:

    Construction, agriculture, and food service were once the bedrock of our nation’s workforce. Today, these industries have been overtaken by a shadow labor force of undocumented workers who undercut wages. It is not that Americans refuse to do the work. Rather, they are pushed aside by a system that allows rampant fraud, fosters exploitative employment practices, and leaves honest citizens shouldering the burden. For too many Americans, especially those starting out or working in blue-collar jobs, the American Dream has been slipping out of reach.

    A key culprit is the widespread misuse of fraudulent Taxpayer Identification Numbers (TINs), which are intended to ensure that people working in the United States report income and pay taxes correctly. For years, previous administrations looked the other way as special interests benefited from this blatant fraud. The result has been stagnant wages and a workplace culture where the rule-following employee is at a disadvantage.

    Consider the construction industry, which was once a source of national pride. Skilled trades were passed from generation to generation. Now, these same industries frequently rely on a workforce that uses fake or stolen TINs or Social Security numbers, making it easy for unscrupulous employers to dodge taxes and skirt labor regulations. Meanwhile, Americans who want these jobs face language barriers, intimidation, and lowered wages. It is no wonder that our youth are discouraged from pursuing the trades when they see so few opportunities that offer a fair wage and basic protections. 

• No nation for white men: "Job Search - Part 6"--James M. A very personal look at how white men are discriminated against in the job market, locked out by "woke" female HR managers and administrators that know nothing about the jobs they are attempting to fill. 
• I'm sold: "With No Immigration, US Population Will Fall Over 30% by 2100"--Real Clear Politics. That would return the U.S. to population levels last seen in the 1980s. 
• "How ‘charities,’ funded by your tax dollars, helped break immigration law"--New York Post. An excerpt:

    When violent riots erupted across Los Angeles in defiance of President Trump’s efforts to enforce federal immigration law, the uprising was not as spontaneous as open-borders politicians would have you believe.

    Far-left non-governmental organizations, including the Coalition for Humane Immigrant Rights (CHIRLA), helped provide transportation and services to those going to the protests in support of illegal immigration, many of which quickly devolved into brutal attacks on Immigration and Customs Enforcement.

    As it turns out, CHIRLA received nearly $34 million in California state grants from June 2022 to June 2023.

    From October 2021 to September 2024, under the Biden-Harris administration, the group also received $450,000 in grants from the Department of Homeland Security.

    But this pattern of incentivizing lawless behavior at taxpayers’ expense isn’t an isolated case — it is an example of the extensive partnership of open-borders activists and their allies in the Biden-Harris administration, and Americans are still paying the cost.  

• Committing the cons that Americans won't: "Distraught family claimed beloved mom had been kidnapped by ICE...but now the sinister truth has emerged"--Daily Mail. Yuriana Julia Pelaez Calderon--an illegal immigrant from Mexico living in Los Angeles--was caught having faked her own abduction by ICE agents in order to raise money on GoFundMe. 

    [After the allegations surfaced] The DHS launched an investigation into the 'kidnapping,' during which they spent days looking for Calderon and even had ICE agents searching 'detention cell to detention cell,' officials said. 

    Ultimately, agents said they found Calderon in a shopping plaza parking lot in Bakersfield on July 5. She allegedly continued to insist that she had been kidnapped and held 'with others'. 

• "Illegal migrant, 15, gets probation and must go to school after killing Colorado rehab worker, 24, in high-speed crash"--New York Post.
• Doing the jobs Americans won't: "Cartel ‘sicarios’ crossed into US soil in murder-for-hire scheme, prosecutors say"--News Nation. Related to drug trafficking, of course.
• "Expert Highlights Illegal Alien Gang’s Threat to Rural Americans"--PJ Media. A look at a South American rival to the infamous Tren de Aragua gang known as Anti-Tren, which is distinguishing itself by being both more violent than TdA, but also setting up shop in rural areas.
• "Elite Economist Admits: Trump’s Deportations Push up Citizens’ Wages"--Breitbart. I would hope so since it is basic Econ 101 type stuff. 
• "Millions of Americans don’t speak English. Now they won’t be warned before weather disasters."--Grist. Complaining that the National Weather Service will be ending Spanish language weather warnings. 
• Then go home: "Minneapolis Mayoral Candidate Says Somalia Is His ‘Home’"--The Federalist. 
• This is the way: "Trump’s Deputies Use Medicaid Data to Help ICE Find Migrants"--Breitbart. As the article notes, "Millions of illegal migrants have shared their identities and addresses to use the taxpayer-funded Medicaid system, often via emergency rooms and state-funded clinics."
• "Justice Dept. Fines Company for Favoring Foreign Visa Workers Over Americans"--Breitbart. Per the article, the company is "H2A Complete II Inc., a Mississippi firm that specializes in funneling foreign H-2A visa workers to United States farms[.]"
• "'Love Island' revives conversation about racial bias in dating"--NBC News. NBC is shocked to discover that men prefer white women over black women when it comes to dating. Of course, no one calls out discrimination by women, such as the preference women have for taller men such that many (most?) will not consider a man less than 6' tall. [I'm sure you can appreciate the irony of this: "According to the dating app Badoo, the top keyword for men to get matches was '6ft' (perhaps surprisingly, for women, it was 'love')." So men look for love but women look for shallow physical characteristics].
• "New Yorker stabbed in neck by African migrants during Italian vacation: ‘It’s a playground for terror, for the vicious’"--New York Post. The Africans were robbing people on a commuter train--it sounds like the victim was stabbed for no other reason than his Arabic speaking attackers are vicious animals. 
• "German mayor says Syrian migrants groped, sexually harassed, young girls in pool due to warm weather"--American Thinker. "The men touched the [nine] young victims’ hair, thighs, and breasts while they were in the water," but the mayor of the town where it happened blamed the attack on the warm weather. I have to wonder if that mayor is unable to control his urges just because the weather gets warm? If not, why would he say that?
• "Migrant clashes erupt in northern France with rocks launched at riot cops and fires blazing in the street as police try to stop launch of small boat bound for Britain"--Daily Mail. This is what invaders do. 
• "Israeli settlers accused of killing 117 sheep in West Bank attack against Palestinian Bedouins"--Jerusalem Post. This is also what invaders do. 
• Why does the British government hate the British people? "Revealed after the Daily Mail's two-year battle against superinjunction, the Government's £7billion secret airlift as 18,500 Afghans are brought to Britain"--Daily Mail.
• "WTF Headline Of The Day: Convicted Pakistani Pedo Avoids Deportation From UK Because He's An Alcoholic"--Zero Hedge. 
• What happens when you let foreigners buy up critical manufacturing: "Britain becomes only G7 country unable to make new steel"--The Telegraph.

    British Steel has announced plans to close its two blast furnaces in Scunthorpe, making Britain the only G7 country unable to manufacture its own steel.

    Jingye, the Chinese steel group that owns the plant, blamed Donald Trump as it announced plans to shut key operations, putting up to 2,700 jobs at risk. It said the “imposition of tariffs” had made the blast furnaces and steel making operations “no longer financially sustainable”. The closures signal the end of steel production in the UK after more than 150 years. 

• "The Enduring Relevance of Enoch Powell"--Eternal England. The piece posts a condensed version of Powell's "Enemy Within" speech from 1970. An excerpt:

    ... Have you ever wondered, perhaps, why opinions which the majority of people quite naturally hold, are, if anyone dares express them publicly, denounced as "controversial", "extremist", "explosive", "disgraceful", and overwhelmed with a violence and venom quite unknown to debate on mere political issues? It is because the whole power of the aggressor depends on preventing people from seeing what is happening and from saying what they see.

    The most perfect, and the most dangerous, example of this process is the subject miscalled, and deliberately miscalled, 'race'. The people of this country are told that they must feel neither alarm nor objection to a West Indian, African and Asian population which will rise to several millions, being introduced into this country. If they do, they are "prejudiced", "racialist" "un-Christian", and "failing to show an example to the rest of the world". A current situation, and a future prospect, which only a few years ago would have appeared to everyone not merely intolerable, but frankly incredible, has to be represented as if welcomed by all rational and right-thinking people. The public are literally made to say that black is white. 

    Newspapers like the Sunday Times denounce it as "spouting the fantasies of racial purity" to say that a child born of English parents in Peking is not Chinese but English, or that a child born of Indian parents in Birmingham is not English but Indian. It is even heresy to assert the plain fact that the English are a white nation. Whether those who take part know it or not, this process of brainwashing by repetition of manifest absurdities is a sinister and deadly weapon. In the end, it renders the majority, who are marked down to be the victims of violence or revolution, or tyranny, incapable of self-defence by depriving them of their wits and convincing them that what they thought was right is wrong, what they thought was real is unreal.
