As millions of unassimilables cross into fading America, the mighty imperial military spruces up for them. Rather than repel the invasion, the Army plays Tom Sawyer’s mark, whitewashing the ~~fence~~ ~~wall~~ “barrier.”

United States military personnel deployed near the U.S.-Mexico border have reportedly been assigned to paint certain barrier structures to strengthen their “aesthetic appearance.”

Sen. Dick Durbin (D-Ill.) said on Twitter on Wednesday afternoon that the Department of Homeland Security (DHS) informed Congress that troops are going to spend the next month painting barriers and that “the primary purpose is to improve the aesthetic appearance.”

“DHS informed Congress today that troops are going to spend the next month painting the border wall & “the primary purpose is to improve the aesthetic appearance.” A disgraceful misuse of taxpayer $$. Our military has more important work to do than making Trump’s wall beautiful.”

It’s a sad day when Dick Durbin makes sense.

Meanwhile, a Texas government school teacher is fired after pleading with Trump to do his job and remove criminal aliens from her district.

A high school teacher in Texas was fired Tuesday over some tweets she sent to President Trump, asking him to do something about the illegal immigrants in her school district.

The Fort Worth Independent School District Board of Trustees voted on Tuesday to terminate the contract of English language arts teacher Georgia Clark, who has worked for the district since 1998.

The Carter-Riverside High School teacher tweeted what she thought were private messages directed at President Trump last month, but the comments were public and sparked a huge controversy in the Fort Worth community.

“Mr. President, Fort Worth Independent School District is loaded with illegal students from Mexico. Carter-Riverside High School has been taken over by them. Drug dealers are on our campus and nothing was done to them,” one tweet read.

Natural conservatives, dealing the dope that lazy Americans just won’t deal anymore. Shame on this woman.

I can fully believe that nothing is done about ordinary criminality, just as nothing is done about the invasion. Maybe Mrs. Clark can get a job helping paint the fence.

1965, invasion, Ted Kennedy

Stake him and stuff his head with garlic.

Then:

“First, our cities will not be flooded with a million immigrants annually. Under the proposed bill, the present level of immigration remains substantially the same … “

Ted the Liar (on the 1965 End of America Act)

Now:

New border surge prompts 10% jump in 2019 prediction to 1,072,000 illegal immigrants

And, that’s just the illegals.

Death of a Cigar Shop: A Smoke Shop Mirror for America – From TPC

America, cigars, TPC

Not the best, but what it is, this week:

This one is a little short by my standards. My ultra-secret project is winding down and, honestly, I’m worn out. A new short work of fiction is materializing. As much time as it’s consumed, it’s still not quite ready.

Several ideas for this week presented themselves in due order. One kinda sorta made it, here, today. But, I needed a context. And, brothers and sisters, I found it, in a most unlikely manner, in a most likely place.

I have, for many years now, been a frequent fixture at various cigar shops, from Florida to New Hampshire. This afternoon, with a rare bit of “time off,” I decided to visit one of my former favorites. My purposes were two-fold: to have a smoke and to work on this column. Of the two, the smoking might be going more smoothly:

Folktale Fiction for the Fallen Nation

Ann Coulter, culture, decline, education, truth

Ann Coulter writes about the rejection of truth in the burning remains of the West.

New York City public school teachers recently revealed that they have been instructed to reject “objectivity,” “written documentation” and “perfectionism” by Schools Chancellor Richard Carranza, as part of his effort to “dismantle racism.” Carranza identified these values as tools of the “white-supremacy culture.”

…

In our new country, nonsense like “objectivity” and “written documentation” are mere tricks, chicanery, hocus-pocus, used against “communities of color” — as Schools Chancellor Carranza explained — in order “to win victories for white people.”

And, here, the schools are behind the curve, as Coulter observes. But, we do need some new victories. Each Coulter column counts as one.

Illegal Invaders Have More Legal Rights Than You Do

America, invasion, law, rights, TSA

Literally. This is what happens when the rule of law leaves a failed nation. As your rights are trampled, as you are filmed, poked, prodded, x-rayed, and interrogated, invaders from afar breeze through in admitted (further) violation of the law.

The federal agency tasked with overseeing security at transportation hubs has been violating its own policy by allowing migrants who have been released from federal custody onto flights despite not having required documents, according to several Department of Homeland Security officials.

For the past six months, the Transportation Security Administration has allowed migrants released from the custody of other Homeland Security agencies to board flights to other parts of the country despite the passengers lacking any of the 15 documents it states are the only acceptable forms of identification.

Since early December, the agency has avoided temporarily changing federal policy and also not introduced a permanent solution to address this new phenomenon, despite no indication border apprehensions and mass releases are slowing down any time soon.

This is the permanent solution. The new normal in an abnormal age. Y’all need to vote harder or something.

The Comeback That Can’t

2033, conservative, Trump

The Washington Times opines about a future resurgence of conservatism. Given that conservatism is a non-ideology and a failure, let’s predict that the comeback either won’t happen or that it won’t matter.

As conservatism takes its new shape in the face of President Trump’s takeover of the Republican Party, old alliances have been fractured, and multiple fights have broken out about what conservatism should look like. Many of those who waded into the debate have assumed, not without justification, that recent political developments have shattered limited-government conservatism and that any future conservatism is likely going to be less libertarian than that which preceded Trump. But there are a number of good reasons to believe that limited-government conservatism will make a comeback.

They forgot to mention getting back to the Constitution.

deportations, ICE, invasion

The acting ICEman speaks.

The Trump administration is planning a large-scale deportation operation of illegal aliens, including those who have refused to show for their asylum court hearings.

The strategy is meant to “disincentivize” economic migrants who crossed into the U.S. illegally without legitimate asylum claims, according to Immigration and Customs Enforcement acting director Mark Morgan.

“We have no choice as I see this,” Morgan said Tuesday. “We need to take some interior enforcement action…We need to continue to do everything that we can within the current legal framework, within the current laws, within the current statutorily mandated duties of ICE, to assist, to reduce this humanitarian crisis. That will include families.”

Question: Was this “state of emergency” about the “humanitarian crisis?” If so, then what about the real crisis? This reluctant-sounding announcement seems like something that would have been better debuted in 2017. Better late than never (if it’s real…) I suppose. While they’re at it, they should also deport the chamber of commerce, the greedy corporatists, the churchian idiots, and all other enablers.

A College List

10 Colleges that maybe aren’t completely converged by SJWs:

THE LIST

As our list of schools suggests, institutions of any type and size can differentiate themselves by emphasizing open inquiry in their curricular and co-curricular efforts. By welcoming diverse people with diverse views to campus—and, crucially, creating opportunities for the community to learn and practice nuanced, respectful engagement—colleges can both advance their core academic mission and equip graduates to thrive in their post-graduation pursuits.

No guarantees but it beats the now-normal horror stories. And, there are more than these ten. Maybe I’ll do another list myself. Thomas More of NH! That’s one.

FBI, privacy, stupid Amerikans

The FBI loves all those pics the people post on Farcebook and the socials.

A government watchdog says the FBI has access to about 640 million photographs — including from driver’s licenses, passports and mugshots — that can be searched using facial recognition technology.

The figure reflects how the technology is becoming an increasingly powerful law enforcement tool, but is also stirring fears about the potential for authorities to intrude on the lives of Americans. It was reported by the Government Accountability Office at a congressional hearing in which both Democrats and Republicans raised questions about the use of the technology.

Who among the rabble is wise enough to have their fears stirred? And, what, exactly, have these concern troll Democrats and Republicans done? The shit stupid people deserve what’s coming.
