Government demographic studies all wrong on Somali numbers in US

Government demographic studies all wrong on Somali numbers in US « Refugee Resettlement Watch:
We probably have at least twice as many Somalis of ethnic descent living in the US as the federal government is telling us!

This little article caught my eye yesterday, so I went back this morning to look at numbers I have recorded for years.

Somalis in Minnesota with Somali flags!

From Orangeville.com about Minnesota Somali numbers, with this line at the end:

The 2015 American Community Survey says almost one-third of the more than 129,000 people in the United States reporting Somali ancestry lived in Minnesota.

129,000! No way!

This is what we know:  Back in 2008, I laboriously poured over data provided by the federal Office of Refugee Resettlement’s annual reports to Congress and wrote this post about the numbers. (We did not have access to Wrapsnet at the time).  Each year after that I updated the post with the Somalis we admitted to the US—through only the Refugee Admissions Program.

Through FY16 we admitted 136,376 Somali ‘refugees’!..."

RICHARD FERNANDEZ ON TODAY’S FACTIONALISM: 
“The danger of America dividing in the face of an opportunistic enemy should be obvious to the combatants. 
But the factions of American politics may be too enraged to stop out of fear of a common threat. . . . 
If Trump is overthrown by the Deep State in a year, he’s unlikely to be the last. 
If neither faction will suffer itself to be governed by the other, whoever succeeds Trump can expect his term to be short. 
America could have its own period of the 26 presidents. 
That will be good news for the Barbarians, waiting at the edge of the Baltics, in the South China Sea, and on Europe’s borders, ready to move in.”

Media Say Trump's ICE Arrested Transgender Domestic Violence Victim. They Ignore One Rather Important Fact. | Daily Wire

Media Say Trump's ICE Arrested Transgender Domestic Violence Victim. They Ignore One Rather Important Fact. | Daily Wire:

"Now, here’s how the headline should have read: “ICE Agents Arrest Repeatedly Convicted Criminal For Deportation At Courthouse.”

The transgender woman in question has been deported six times before and “voluntarily returned to Mexico one other time.” Here’s the rap sheet from 2013: assault, probation violation, domestic violence, false imprisonment of a minor."

Washington Post demonstrates importance of voter ID laws

Washington Post demonstrates importance of voter ID laws | Power Line:
"Little agitates Democrats more than claims of voter fraud. 
Such fraud is a hardy perennial of American politics. 
Our history is full of examples, such as Mayor Daley’s Chicago.

Yet, Democrats want us to believe that, notwithstanding solid evidence to the contrary, it’s not a problem in modern American politics. 

The reason is obvious. 

Democrats don’t want laws and procedures to protect against voter fraud because they want to preserve their ability to engage in it.

• These days, there’s a second reason. 

President Trump has made what probably are highly exaggerated claims of mass voter fraud in order to explain away the fact that he lost the popular vote to Hillary Clinton..."

Is it Okay to Tell Women to Dress Respectably?

Is it Okay to Tell Women to Dress Respectably? | Intellectual Takeout:
"There’s a popular internet meme that says, “In a world full of Kardashians be a Grace,” referencing the classic style tastes of the late actress Grace Kelly.
Queen’s University Belfast, a prestigious college in Ireland, recently made the same recommendation to its students in an article on what to wear for their graduation ceremony. 
Those recommendations, however, weren’t received with as much enthusiasm as the meme normally receives.
In fact, many women were downright insulted over the statement.

Behold! The Party's New 5-year Housing Plan!

Behold! The Party's New 5-year Housing Plan!
"What will they think of next? Burdened by the People's lack of money due to Kapitalistik demands, the Party in our People's Stronghold of Los Angeles has developed a glorious new 5-year plan of People's Housing. It's so revolutionary, in fact, that the plan was hatched by the daughter of a bona-fide Russian!

"Accessible to All", as the comrade in the video states, this smart new plan features only one kitchen and one bathroom, but has many beds situated in an environment that permits no privacy, a fact which all right-thinking comrades assuredly will enjoy. 

A particularly revolutionary part of this stunning "dormitory-style" idea is the communal refrigerator, with a tiny, yet generous space provided to put your daily vodka ration or beet harvest. An even more revolutionary feature is the communal toiletry ration, a state-provided plus for fortifying your immune system against any sicknesses your fellow comrades may get.

The interior is reminiscent of a Glorious People's Factory or Tractor Barn, with concrete floors, scrap wood, and unfinished beams. Nameboards make it easy for you to find your bed and easy for the KGB to know who has that copy of the Constitution or Shakedown Socialism. 

Bunkbeds, or Pods, as the comrade tells us they are, throw you kicking and screaming back to your childhood dacha, filled with family (or what's left of it) and freezing cold air. A personal outlet and telescreen provide luxury usually only enjoyed by high-ranking party officials. A nightlight only adds to the child-like glow of this truly gorgeous Party-manufactured living arrangement.

Community areas allow easy organization of Party protests or presentations of how the white capitalist man has crushed our comrades, seen them driven before him, and heard the lamentation of our trans-women. They also allow you to assault the senses of any comrade who does not like sonic modern art.

The comrade in the video says that she wishes to expand this idea across the People's Stronghold, and that anybody part of the pod-family should be able to pop into anybody else's Pod-house to use the bathroom or computer and to get a Pod-house anywhere. Boxhe moi, that idea is so revolutionary it makes my Kube spin!

The comrade also says that "you want to exist in the way you want to exist without having some code restrict that". Looks like she is an early adopter of our pro-Refugee and Mexican Economic Migrant Policies! 

This writer only regrets that she didn't follow through with our Mexican Migrant policies by hiring the friendly Mexican helpers undoubtedly stationed outside of the Home Depot she got her materials from.

For more information, consult this 30 minute newsreel:


Podsharing: Nothing to your name but access to everything, an idea which must have flowed from the font of Kommunist thought that Marx sipped from 170 years ago. An idea which is truly revolutionary. An idea for all, as long as you can climb up stairs. An idea that proves that, despite the election of the orange gorilla, our agenda is being followed more and more every day. An idea which is coming to you, whether you like it or not.

ONWARD!

Scandinavia: The West's Citadel of anti-Semitism

Scandinavia: The West's Citadel of anti-Semitism

• Hate for Israel has become a real obsession in Scandinavia, which revived the glorious partnership between the liberal "useful idiots" -- the ones concerned about equality and minorities -- and the Islamists, the ones concerned about submission and killing "infidels".
• Despite the fact that Jews in Norway are only 0.003 percent of the total population, Oslo is now world's capital of European anti-Semitism. Norwegian newspapers are full of classic anti-Semitic tropes.
• A festival in Oslo also rejected a documentary, "The Other Dreamers," about the lives of disabled children, simply because it was Israeli. "We support the academic and cultural boycott of Israel," wrote Ketil Magnussen, the founder of the festival.
• The same racism exists in Sweden. Dagens Nyheter, the most sophisticated Swedish newspaper, published a violently anti-Semitic op-ed entitled, "It is allowed to hate the Jews".
• Does Sweden's Foreign Minister Margot Wallström really mean that to defeat Islamic aggression, Israel must surrender? The Palestinians' situation is indeed desperate, but as they have had full autonomy for decades, their desperate situation is caused by their own corrupt leaders who appear deliberately to keep their people in misery try to blame it on Israel, in the same way that people maim children to make them "better" beggars.
• The Nazi daily Der Stürmer could not have drawn it better.

On January 12, the Norwegian newspaper Aftenposten published an article about Jared Kushner, US President Donald Trump's son-in-law and his senior adviser: "The Jew Kushner reportedly pushed for David M. Friedman as the new ambassador to Israel", Aftenposten wrote. 

The newspaper had later to apologize for calling Kushner "the Jew"..."

Is It “Deeply Offensive” to Enforce the Law?

Is It “Deeply Offensive” to Enforce the Law? | Power Line:
"It is, apparently, if the law relates to immigration. 
At Penn State, someone put up posters urging students and others to report violations of the immigration laws. 
This is the poster:

Is it a civic duty to report illegal aliens? That is certainly a defensible position. In general, citizens should cooperate with law enforcement. 
But Penn State’s administration didn’t see it that way:

“The posters are unsigned and appear to be designed to provoke anger, fear and hate. The university finds them deeply offensive,” Penn State said in a statement.

Is enforcing the law really a sign of “anger, fear and hate”? And why, exactly, is it offensive to suggest that citizens should cooperate in enforcing federal law? How did it happen that the American establishment became overwhelmingly, and enthusiastically, in favor of illegal immigration?

The university said in its statement about the posters that officials wanted to emphasize “that every student on this campus has earned the right to be here based on their [sic] academic qualifications and hard work.”

Hmm. Is there anything in the poster about academic qualifications and hard work? Not that I noticed. Whether a student has a right to be at Penn State (or anywhere else in the U.S.) depends in part, of course, on our immigration laws.

“Penn State is enriched by students and scholars from around the world and we will continue our work on providing a climate of inclusion for all, regardless of country of origin,” the university said.

But the poster says nothing about country of origin. It is fine to have a “climate of inclusion for all,” but if “all” includes people who are present in the United States illegally, it shouldn’t come as a shock if they are caught and deported. Does Penn State’s administration mean to suggest that it deliberately harbors illegal aliens, thereby aiding and abetting violations of federal law? I think that is the clear implication. Does Penn State receive federal funding?

We are living in a very bizarre era, in which large numbers of otherwise-respectable people consider it a point of moral superiority to commit, or aid in the commission of, federal crimes. 

This largely explains why Donald Trump is now our president."

Has Washington Gone Crazy? | Power Line

Has Washington Gone Crazy? | Power Line:

"The idea that Vice President Mike Pence and a majority of Trump’s cabinet will declare Donald Trump unable to perform the duties of the presidency is, of course, insane. It is rather ironic that the 25th Amendment schemers, not Donald Trump, are the ones who display signs of being disconnected from reality.

Meanwhile, what is the evidence that Trump can’t discharge the duties of his office? There is none, obviously. If the Rasmussen survey is believed, 55% of likely voters think he is not only performing his duties, but performing them well–a much higher approval rating than Congressional Democrats’. Congressman Speier struggles to explain why he thinks Trump is somehow disabled:"

HAHA! National “Day Without Immigrants” Protest Totally BACKFIRES In Totally Unexpected Way | John Hawkins' Right Wing News

HAHA! National “Day Without Immigrants” Protest Totally BACKFIRES In Totally Unexpected Way | John Hawkins' Right Wing News:

"Before we go any further, can we make it clear that the left just refuses to make the differentiation between immigrant and illegal immigrant? One being very important to the history and growth of the country, and the other being very good at tax evasion and identity theft.

Much to the surprise of…Well, no one that has half a brain, it would appear that not a single apocalyptic sign appeared in the sky during the protest event. Nope. All went on without a problem, and most didn’t even realize that the immigration protest thingy was actually going on.

Even the New York Times basically acknowledged that the protest was more troublesome than anything else, and that cities did NOT cease to a function…Like, at all."
