Meanwhile, in Hell
Before I post this cartoon, let me say that I believe in a literal Hell. In fact, there are at least two literal Hells, the one where the unsaved go when they die (Sheol), and the one where they are cast at the Last Judgment (Gehenna). I also think that it is most likely that the Charlie Hebdo cartoonists and the people who killed them are literally in the first one right now (I hope that they believed on Jesus and were saved in the last moment, but it seems unlikely). So don't think that I take Hell lightly. But I believe that it is a reality to be acknowledged. Denying its reality will not save people. Acknowledging it at least provides the hope that people will seek a way to avoid it, and hopefully find the True Way, Jesus Christ.
Also understand that I am a Baptist who believes very strongly in the saved/unsaved paradigm. Although those who go to Hell do go there for their sins, avoiding sin is not what allows you to avoid going to Hell (because no one avoids sin perfectly, and "the best you can do" is not good enough). Moreover, once saved by Grace (by believing in Jesus - that is, acknowledging that Jesus Christ is God the Son, Who died to pay for your sins, and trusting in Him to save you through His death) no amount of sin will send you to Hell - although sin has other eternal consequences (loss of possible rewards in Heaven, missed opportunities to share the saving Gospel with others).
So I am not trying to imply that the specific wrongs I criticize were somehow the deciding factors in why I am portraying these people in Hell. Nor am I happy to see them there. Nonetheless, I believe one takes one's sin with him into Hell, so it is an appropriate place to confront them with their sins.
So here is my latest cartoon on the Charlie Hebdo massacre:

Governors Should Use "Prosecutorial Discretion" to Fight Amnesty
Republican governors should immediately declare that if Obama launches an administrative amnesty, they will do everything in their power (prosecutorial discretion, pardon power) to avoid penalizing American citizens who commit crimes against illegal aliens. Murder one? Pardon. Rape one? Pardon.
Say that if Obama wants people who commit crimes against illegal aliens prosecuted, he'll have to file civil rights charges on every single case. The state government won't help him a bit.
It's time to fight back.

Jeanne Shaheen's Polio Hair-Splitting
Chief counsel for Jeanne Shaheen Judy Reardon recently made fun of Scott Brown for referring to the polio crossing the border, because enterovirus B68 is not the virus that causes traditional polio. This is rather like arguing over whether or not a caribou is a deer. I questioned her on this hairsplitting on twitter, and in response, she blocked me. The conversation is here.
I suggest that people ask Shaheen, or her advisors, on Twitter or at campaign stops, etc., how enterovirus B-68 is substantively different from polio, and to ask why Judy Reardon blocks people asking her about it. Remind her that this disease may be responsible for dozens of paralysis cases.

Encouraging the Establishment GOP to Turn Against Amnesty
Recently, John Boehner came out with this statement:
Obama Administration Hiding the Truth about Immigration Actions
Today I donated to Boehner's campaign and to the National Republican Congressional Committee.
I left messages with Boehner and with the NRCC as well as posting on their pages on Facebook, explaining why I donated and why I have not done so in the past.
While I doubt that this shows an actual change of heart on their part, I do think that positive reinforcement is a good way to change behavior. If things go back, I'll stop. If anyone else wants to join me in contributing to the NRCC as positive reinforcement, please do so.

Help 24AheadDotCom Stop Obama's Amnesty with the Stop Amnesty Challenge
This is a reprint of a post on 24ahead.com's website:
The Stop Amnesty Challenge
It's vitally important to stop Obama's amnesty-by-executive-order now. If we don't stop it now, Obama could legalize millions of illegal aliens and rolling that back is going to be very difficult.
Thankfully, there's a way to stop Obama's amnesty right now. To make that happen, I'm announcing the Stop Amnesty Challenge. The winner and runner-up of the Challenge will win cash awards, but more importantly will have done a great public service.
Summary of the Challenge
The best way to stop amnesty is to challenge its supporters and show them wrong to their audience. If a politician makes a misleading claim, there's a good chance his audience doesn't know it's misleading. If we then show how he misled his audience, that will tend to keep the politician from making the same claim. It will also reduce the politician's influence over his audience. Other politicians will avoid making the same claim. That's how to stop amnesty: show how amnesty supporters are misleading about what it would do. And, the best way to show that is by asking them tough questions designed to box them in to admitting how they're misleading. As a side-effect, asking politicians tough questions will also help further discredit the media.
How To Enter
To enter the challenge, you'll need to attend an event with a nationally-known politician and ask that politician one of the questions we'll provide. You'll need to get the question and any answers from the politician on good quality video with clear audio. The terms of the Challenge are listed here and by entering you agree that you've read and understood those terms.
The Awards
The First Place winner will receive a cash award of $350. The Second Place winner will receive a cash award of $150. Obviously, you aren't going to be able to retire on those amounts, but your primary motivation should be doing the public service of blocking Obama's amnesty-by-executive-order.
The Questions
You can enter the Challenge by asking any one of these questions:
Question about Ebola and skilled immigration
Question about Obama's executive order on immigration
Question about subsidizing American farmworkers
Question about immigration reform being an amnesty for employers
Question about the DREAM Act
Read those through and decide which you feel most comfortable asking. As part of the Challenge you'll need to get a definitive answer from the politician, but each of the pages linked above has likely things the politician will say and how you can respond. Other questions can be provided or those questions can be modified on request.
Got Questions?
If you have any questions about the Challenge, don't hesitate to ask. For quickest response, tweet any questions to @24AheadDotCom_ .
Can't take the Challenge?
If for some reason you can't take the Challenge but still want to help stop Obama's executive order amnesty, you can still help out by promoting the challenge on social media or to your email contacts.
Resources
See the terms of the Challenge here.

Dance, Grey Lady, Dance!
This cartoon depicts Mexican monopolist Carlos Slim. who is the second largest owner of the New York Times since he helped to rescue it from bankruptcy.
It is widely believed that he is in large part responsible for the Times' bias in favor of mass immigration, as he profits mightily off of Mexicans going to the U.S.
Note: I used the spelling "Grey" because it looks classier that way.
Cartoon also found at DeviantArt.
That is all.
Vultures Can Give Milk!
This is a depiction of the Evangelical Immigration Table (EIT). ALthough much has been made of the indirect George Soros connection, the connection to Peter Singer is much more direct. Singer is a major GOP donor (which means a RINO-maker) who is trying to push the party into supporting amnesty. He is also known as "the Vulture," at least partially for his insistence on collecting debts from the Argentinian government to the point where they may simply default on all debts.
I would have included Robert Gittelson, but he died a week or so ago , so it would be in poor taste.
I've also posted it on DeviantArt.
You may have some trouble seeing it there if you do not have a DeviantArt account, because I've given this a moderate mature content reading for nudity, in case the image of people suckling at a cow's udder (connected to a vulture) is too suggestive for some people.

Accusations of Racism: Tool of Elites to Beat Down Working Class Whites
This is my response to this ridiculous Stuart Carlson cartoon.
Apparently Carlson thinks that the fatcats are trying to distract from their cupidity by blaming immigrants - in reality, mass immigration is a policy that the fatcats support, because it helps them reduce wages and to screw over American employees. They would never try to stir up resentment of immigrants, because it would damage their agenda. In reality, the fatcats would distract workers away from the immigrants and accuse them of racism if they did anything that threatened their cheap labor gravy train.
So this is the more accurate version of the cartoon.

About that Lindsey Graham Victory
With all of the disruption by the establishment over the historic loss of Eric Cantor, I have heard lots of people opining that Lindsey Graham's victory in South Carolina shows that people really are not against amnesty for illegal aliens.
B.S. Let's see about that race:
According to Ballotpedia, Graham spent a total of $3,500,510.52 on this campaign by April 15 of this year (I'll get better, i.e. more recent, stats when they become available). Lee Bright spent $217,467.71, Nancy Mace spent $388,435.38, Richard Cash spent $251,359.33, Det Bowers $44,808.21, Bill Connor $109,303.92, and Benjamin Dunn $0.00.
That means that as of April 15, Graham had spent $3.5 million, while his opponents had spent a total of about about $1.01 million (exactly $1,011,285.00). So Graham outspent his opponents by almost 3.5 times, he' an incumbent, and still he only got 56.3-58.4% of the vote (reports vary and the final official tally is not available as far as I can tell).
Don't let the Graham situation detract from the defeat of Cantor. Graham was expected to win. His win is not significant the way a win by an outraised 25 to 1 and outspent 40 to 1 previously unknown challenger is.
(Note: I will try to get all of my figures updated, and everything sourced, in the next few days as more information becomes available).
That is all.

Happy Passover/Easter!
And by the way, saying "Happy Passover" is not merely a sop to my Jewish readers. The fact of the matter is, from a Christian perspective, the Passion and the Resurrection are deeply tied to Passover, which was given as a type of the sacrifice to come. Understanding Passover helps one to understand the context of Christ's life, and of the events that God brought to bear in order to make His propitiatory sacrifice for our sins.

Antijaphetism
I think it is time to popularize a new term, "antijaphetism." It refers to prejudice directed against people of European descent. It is designed to parallel "antisemitism," as Japheth biblically is the father of the Europeans as Shem is of the Hebrews. In particular, the term would be useful to use for Jewish people who harbor ill will toward non-Jewish whites, in order to acknowledge the existence of such prejudice while not imputing that position to Jews as a whole.
I decided that popularizing this term would be a good thing, as I have noticed that a lot of white nationalists tend to harbor antisemitic and anti-Zionist feelings that I think are not only wrong, but ultimately counterproductive. The fact of the matter is that there is nothing anti-white about Zionism, which is merely the belief that Jews have the right to a homeland. Jewish sympathy and unity toward other Jews should not be seen as threatening indeed, non-white ethnic nationalism as a whole should not be, unless it is accompanied by an antipathy toward whites.
While there are a lot of people of Jewish heritage who do seem to have an antipathy toward Gentile whites (Chuck Schumer), there is no reason to use this to attack the Jewish people as a whole, nor to conflate pro-Jewish movements with anti-Gentile ones. This would be the mirror image of the tendency to conflate any form of pro-whiteness with Nazism.
By the way, people who like whites, in particular Jews who see their interests as aligned with those of Gentile whites, I would refer to as philojaphetic.
That is all.

Helping Anti-Amnesty Allies
About 6 weeks ago, 16 GOP Congressmen signed a letter arguing not just against amnesty but against any increase in legal immigration. At a time when so many politicians couple their opposition to amnesty with a call to increase legal channels of immigration, or in other ways continue to press for the continued dispossession of the historic American nation while narrowly opposing illegal immigration (see Ted Cruz), this is refreshing. It would be better if they called for a reduction or even a moratorium on immigration, but we work with what we have.

Transgenderism
Most of the discussions of transgenderism by people who are advocates for the transgendered community remind me of this scene from 1984:
Reading this post by Ampersand, I keep feeling like he is holding up a picture of a naked person with a penis and testicles and asking us "what is this a picture of?"
(The answer he wants of course, is "a woman.")
The thing that annoys me is the GIF with the caption "I was born a baby who was assigned male at birth." This is a cutesy way of denying that someone born with a penis and testicles has a male body; with the implication that anatomy is completely irrelevant to gender (i.e. so that everyone should rearrange how they think about gender so as not to offend trans individuals).

Using Twitter to Fight Amnesty
A few months ago, I opened up a Twitter account. Since then, I have amasssed over 2000 followers, and a much better idea of how to use Twitter to get my message out.
Here are some ideas:
For one thing, visit 24ahead.com's Twitter account. Retweet some of his tweets. In particular, re-tweet those that mention people (i.e. that use the @ sign). He does tend to be abrasive toward allies (like NumbersUSA) who are not doing things the way he wants, so you will have to use your own judgment as to what to re-tweet and what not to. Alternately, you can use the "reply" function to back him up when he asks a question, if you think you have something to add. The people he talks to can be a good guide as to people whom you might want to contact independently and suggest things to.
Also, use hashtags (#) and searches to find people who are arguing on the immigration debate. Tweet them with questions regarding their stance, or supporting their stance (depending on what their stance is), preferably with links to pieces that support your position. Please be aware, do not follow someone whom you are asking tough questions of, because this makes it more likely that you will be suspended if they decide to block you. Also, do not ask too many questions in a row of one person (especially someone you don't know), lest they become annoyed and treat you as spam. Not having a person's Twitter account designation (i.e. their "@") as the first thing on a Tweet is usually good, because it means that it will be broadcast onto your followers' Twitter feeds and put on your primary Twitter page (as opposed to under the "Tweets & Replies" page), plus it makes it less likely for a block to result in a suspension, so usually it's useful to put a period before the first "@".
Try to amass followers. I do that by following 20-30 people over the course of a day. Before you follow someone, check them out to see if they are a good fit. Everyone you follow, put in a folder (I use 3 folders, and generally fill one while cleaning out the one after it. After it is totally empty, I start filling it and start cleaning out the one after that one). After a week or so, unfollow those that have not followed you and move them to a folder for people whom you have followed and have not followed back (so that you don't keep re-following the same person every two weeks), and those that have followed back, remove from your list. You can also have other ways of amassing followers, but be careful not to go overboard and alert the anti-spam functions of twitter. And of course, don't follow indiscriminately.
My previous posts have lists of links you can use when arguing immigration questions. Please don't link to these posts but to the articles the posts link. Also, check out the articles and make certain that what you are linking to is relevant to the thing you are arguing. Generally, a Tweet should say something like: "It's not a RW talking point. Ted Rall sees link between immigration, lower wages: http://rall.com/2013/05/30/syndicated-column-immigration-reform-is-treason".
DREAM Act/KIDS Act/DACA

Articles on Wall Street Perfidy on Immigration
Whenever someone from the business community (e.g. the Chamber of Commerce) starts touting mass immigration, you need to bring up the fact that several economists actively admit that they want to enrich Wall Street by destroying the Middle Class:
These are two blog posts about Tyler Cowen's The End of Average that point out that Tyler Cowen is essentially saying that his favored immigration policies will destroy the middle class and that they should shut up and take it:
Beans, the magical food by Dennis Mangan
Tyler Cowen: 90% of Americans will (and should) have a more bean-centric Mexican lifestyle by Steve Sailer.
Here's a post by Dennis Mangan interpreting an article by Bret Stephens in the Wall Street Journal:
Open Borders Journal to Class of 2012: Drop Dead
Here's a piece by Neil Munro debunking Steve Case's claim that the way to solve middle class job losses is more American worker displacement:
Billionaire Steve Case says immigrants will offset middle class job losses
Examples of ways to use these links on Twitter and comments sections:
Someone brings up immigrant entrepreneurs creating jobs:
Twitter: .@[person you reply to] @SteveCase claims this too, but won't speculate on percentage of immigrants who are entrepreneurs. http://dailycaller.com/2013/12/05/billionaire-steve-case-says-immigrants-will-offset-middle-class-job-losses/
Comment: Steve Case claims this too, but he refuses to speculate on what percentage of immigrants are entrepreneurs.
Someone says that immigration is a win-win:
Twitter: .@[person you reply to] Really? Then why do Open Borders advocates tell us to make do w/less, be more like Mexico? http://mangans.blogspot.com/2013/10/beans-magical-food.html
.@[person you reply to] Really? Or do you just have contempt for those hurt by mass immigration, as Bret Stephens does? http://mangans.blogspot.com/2012/05/open-borders-journal-to-class-of-2012.html
Comment: The same people who keep pushing open borders are also pushing for us to accept an economy where 90% of people are below middle class. They think that anyone who cannot succeed in an overloaded workforce ought to shut up and serve their betters.
That is all.

Articles to Use to Point out Donor Influence on Immigration Policy
If you want to discredit the amnesty-pushers, you need to point out how large donors are trying to buy amnesty. This works best in conjunction with my previous post about wages, so that you can show the motive and then show who is pushing amnesty. This can be useful in three ways; first, as a talking point against conservatives who support amnesty as a way to reach out to Hispanics; you need to point out who is really driving the push for amnesty and what their motives are. Second, you can start pushing talk-show hosts like Howie Carr and Rush Limbaugh to be more critical of Adelson and the Kochs, rather than often defending them because leftists attack them. Third, you can use it to point out to liberals who is pushing for amnesty and why.
This is an article about GOP megadonors who are pushing amnesty.
Here is another article from Slate mentioning that the Koch brothers are pushing "immigration reform."
Similar article from Breitbart.

This is a puff piece promtoing Gittelson, but it surprisingly lets the cat out of the bag:
"For Gittelson, the personal side of immigration reform is also his life’s work. He made his living and built a business in an industry that in Los Angeles has historically been associated with cheap immigrant labor and garment sweatshops. But Gittelson adamantly denies ever having been part of any immigrant exploitation." Yeah, if you can't trust a guy in the rag trade...

Articles to Use to Argue for Negative Impact of Mass Immigration on Environment
Here are some articles to link to in talking about the impact of mass immigration on the environment:
These are about the water supply in Texas and California, 2 heavily-hit states:
California Central Valley: Land Is Subsiding from Overuse of Water by Brenda Walker.
Senate Immigration Plotters Overlook Water Supply by Brenda Walker (note this article, which is given prominence)
The New Alamo? Water Wars in San Antone—Coming Soon to Your Community by Nicholas Stix.
Here is a website pointing out how the Sierra Club's support of immigration is due to the influence of rich donors. This can be useful if someone uses the Sierra Club's position to indicate that immigration is not an environmental issue, or simply to point out how the environmental movement is at risk ofbeing bought off:
Support US Population Stabilization - Support a Comprehensive Sierra Club Population Policy
In addition, if you want to further show that polluters can pay off the Sierra Club, link to this article about how they suppressed dissent on their endorsement of Clorox.

Pressure These GOP Lawmakers to Recant their Support for HR 15!
These are the three Republicans who announced support for the House version of the Senate Immigration bill (H.R. 15). They claim there are more who will join them.
Jeff Denham.........(CA)..(202) 225-4540....@RepJeffDenham
David Valadao.......(CA)..(202) 225-4540....@RepDavidValadao
Ileana Ros-Lehtinen.(FL)..(202) 225-3931....@RosLehtinen
Call them and tell them: "I cannot believe you are supporting the House immigration amnesty bill, H.R. 15. Please recant your support today. The only bipartisan bill I want to see considered in the House is Democrat John Barrow's H.R. 2124, the 'Keeping the promise of IRCA Act.' If you continue to support bills that provide legalization for illegal aliens, I will be encouraging people to primary you."
We need to nip this in the bud.
You can also call the other House members on this list and say:
"I hope you will not support the House immigration amnesty bill, H.R. 15. Please announce your opposition to this supposed 'immigration reform' bill today. The only bipartisan bill I want to see considered in the House is Democrat John Barrow's H.R. 2124, the 'Keeping the promise of IRCA Act.' People who support legalization bills like H.R. 15 will be primaried."

Links for Arguing about DREAM Act/KIDS Act/BRIDGE Act/ Etc.
To people who ask about penalizing children for things they have no responsibility for, point out that current immigration law would allow people given citizenship under this act to sponsor their parents, who were responsible, and immigration advocates insist that this part of current law be maintained.
Point out that DREAM Act would take college educations and financial aid away from America citizens.
Article from the New York Times(!) admitting that the Deferred Action for Childhood Arrivals program is slowing down processing of visa applications from legitimate foreign spouses, helping people who are here illegally at the expense of legal immigrants.
UPDATE:
Crossing the border illegally is dangerous. Legalization of children who are here illegally is likely to encourage more crossings in the future. Without proper border security measures, will creating incentives for illegal border crossers to bring their children (or for people to smuggle their children here) simply encourage more people to take a dangerous risk? More on this.
Poll shows Americans overwhelmingly want any DACA deal to have an end to chain migration, an end to the visa lottery, and mandatory E-Verify.
CBO estimates that DREAM Act would cost $25.9 billion over ten years. Some analysis from FAIR here, and a suggestion that this is an underestimate here.
The public image of who "DREAMers" are is wrong.
Massive fraud likely in DACA program, little to no verification of age or school attendance.
Claims of devastation to economy if DACA ends ignores low workforce participation rate of millennials, relatively low output of DREAMers
Despite the attempts to imply that DACA recipients are mainly college or graduate students, An ESL program could qualify you for DACA
DACA polling promoted by the media is skewed.
DACA recipients can be people who come here as older teenagers (up to 17), make trips to their home countries, not speak or write English well, and still qualify.
When people talk about how DACA recipients serve the country in the military, point out that Fewer than 900 DACA recipients are in the military (~0.1%) .
73% of DACA-ites live in low-income households.
That is all.
Links for Responding to Claims that Being Pro-Amnesty Helped GOPers Win Hispanic Vote
Anthony Vidak, celebrated for winning in a majority Hispanic District, estimates he got only 25% of the Hispanic vote. Low Hispanic turnout was the major factor in his victory.
Low Hispanic turnout was the major factor in his victory.
Little to no evidence that immigration played a big role in Christie's performance with Hispanics.
(Another point to consider - if the Democrats had actually mounted a campaign against Christie, would he have done so well with Hispamnics? Geroge W. Bush did well with blacks in Texas as governor, but did much worse with blacks nationally running for President, partly because of all the attacks against the GOP as racist. wouldn't Christie's Hispanic support go much lower if he were actively attacked by Democrats, regardless of his positions?

Answers to People who Claim Senate Amnesty Bill S. 744 is Pro-Enforcement or that Enforcement-Only Has Been Tried and Failed:
Huffington Post(!) article pointing out how none of the "tough enforcement provisions" of the Senate bill are really tough.
CBO says enforcement of S.744 would only decrease illegal immigration about 25% (assuming the enforcement provisions are honored).
Amnesty supporters telegraphing intention to stop future enforcement of immigration laws, making enforcement promises of S.744 empty.
Immigrations and Customs officials are being punished if they enforce the law. Why would anyone think that would that change under S744?
On claims that Obama is Super-Enforcer:
In 2011 U.S. Deported lowest number of illegal aliens since 1973.
Deportations numbers decline in 2013.
Claims of Obama high-enforcement numbers result from doctoring the numbers.
Criminal alien arrests down 11 percent (so much for claim that Obama is concentrating on "dangerous" illegal aliens. This link also contains lots of other information, including "The number of deportations resulting from interior enforcement by ICE declined by 19 percent from 2011 to 2012, and is on track to decline another 22 percent in 2013," and that half of new removals in 2012 come from changing accounting methods.

Articles on Immigration Polling
When someone tells you that the GOP is going to hurt its chances if it kills "comprehensive immigration reform (CIR)," kindly direct them to this article, showing them that only 32% of swing voters support "CIR," and only 12% support it strongly (cf. to 54% and 39% opposing and strongly opposing, respectively):
Only one in eight centrist voters strongly back amnesty, says Obama’s polling firm.
Added 07/08/18: Americans desire to couple any DACA fix with mandatory E-Verify and ending chain migration.
Added 09/26/17:Breitbart on how pro-DACA Polling is misleading.
Added 09/17/17:Reuters shows more than half of voters polled want most or all illegal aliens deported. This is similar to what they wanted in 2015.
Added 05/05/15: American suport for border control hits four-year high, and Americans think border security is more important than legalizing illegal aliens by 63-30%.
Hispanics support "enforcement first" by 60% to 34%. The original poll (pdf) is here.
Pro-amnesty Brookings poll cooked the questions to get desired answers.
Center for Immigration Studies explains how polls get rigged.
24ahead on how pro-amnesty polls are manipulated and on who dishonestly promotes them.
Pulse opinion survey shows support for legalization of illegal aliens shaky; majority oppose mass amnesty.
Evangelicals overwhelmingly oppose mass amnesty and want tighter borders.
Mark Krikorian discusses another dishonest pro-amnesty poll from May 2014.
Gallup poll shows voters prefer immigration reduction to an immigration increase by a 41% to 22% margin (33% said "stay the same").
In Europe:
In Europe, majority of people who know immigrants well (58%) want a crackdown, although title of piece hides this.
65% of Spanish, British, Italian, oppose current high levels of immigration.

Articles on Amnesty
When people deny Gang of Eight Immigration Bill is "amnesty," here is an article to link to in debunking that claim:
"Immigration Reform" Equals Amnesty for Illegal Aliens and Their Employers by Ronald W. Mortensen
It is also useful for people who say "we should punish the employers." Point out that the Gang of Eight bill pardons the employers.
Here's another overview from in the Huffington Post(!) pointing out how piddling the clauses in the Senate bill are that supposedly prevent hte bill form being an amnesty.

Articles on Immigration and Assimilation
Here are more articles to link to on Twitter or on boards when discussing illegal immigration. These deal with claims that "we are a melting pot," and "they said the same thing about the Irish/Italians/Chinese, etc. and it all turned out okay."
Best strategy to use these: when replying to one of these claims, mention one or a few of the talking points found in these articles, and then link to the article.
On twitter, make as quick a response as possible, and include link to where the response is from: e.g. "But social pressures to assimilate/integrate that existed then are frowned on now, see http://24ahead.com/jeb-bush-robert-putnam-mislead-about-immigration-and-assimil"
Jeb Bush, Robert Putnam mislead about immigration and assimilation
Michael Barone's shallow, 2470-word logical fallacy ("A Nation Built for Immigrants", WSJ)
http://24ahead.com/s/immigration-tradition-fallacy
Evidence that immigrants are not assimilating:
Threat of Latino violence prevents wearing clothes w/American flag at school in California
Teacher at Pima Community College punished for wanting students to speak English during class
California state Senator wants bilingual education (i.e. reduce language assimilation).
That is all.

Some Articles to Link When Arguing About Illegal Immigration and Wages
Whenever arguing with someone on a comment board or on Twitter, it is useful to be able to link to articles supporting your position.
Here are some articles about immigration "reform" and its effect on wages:
For making points with liberals:
Immigration Reform is Treason by Ted Rall
Labor & Economics [of Immigration] by Progressives for Immigration Reform
Why do we have Immigration when Unemployment is High? by Howard Foster
Immigration Reform 2013: McDonald's Supports Immigration Reform — But For All the Wrong Reasons by Charles Corra.
The following also show that enforcement/restricting immigration does have positive effect on wages, employment for less employable members of society:
Stillmore: Crider Poultry employing homeless, felons instead of illegal aliens by 24ahead.com
Farmers Face Labor Shortages As Workers Find Other Jobs by Gosia Wozniacka.
While the piece seems to argue for more immigration, it actually proves that limiting immigration increases wages:
Takeaway point to emphasize: Farmworkers, who make very little, have seen wages rise due to "shortage" caused by lack of "immigration reform."
Quotes from article (for comments and for Twitlonger posts, you'll need to learn to distill the message for Tweets) :
"But farmworkers, whose incomes are some of the lowest in the nation, have benefited, their wages jumping in California to $2 to $3 over the $8 hourly minimum wage and even more for those working piece rate."
"In the past, we were overrun with farmworkers. But not anymore," said labor contractor Jesus Mateo, whose crews saw a 20 percent pay increase. "Employers have to do something to attract them. The fastest workers can now earn more than $1,000 per week."
"The jump in spending on eating out comes as the number of immigrants available to work in kitchens shrinks and restaurant employees take jobs in other sectors of an improving labor market." Bloomberg obliquely references that lower immigration levels raise wages.
with conservatives:
This article from George Borjas indicates that immigration policy since 1965 takes $400 billion a year from workers and given it to business:
Immigration and the American Worker
and this article by Ed Rubenstein indicates that the Senate bill will add another $100 billion a year to that: National Data | Schumer/ Rubio Would Loot $100 Billion Annually From American Workers And Redistribute It To—Mark Zuckerberg!.
Living Wages and Killing the Schumer Rubio Immigration Giveaway by Andrew Good
September Jobs: Immigrant Displacement of American Workers Reaches ANOTHER New High by Edwin S. Rubenstein
Companies deliberately manipulating hiring process to avoid hiring Americans: here here here and here
General:
The STEM Crisis is a Myth
Is the STEM Shortage a Manufactured Crisis by Devon Merling
How Microsoft massages the data to create the appearance of a shortage by Daniel Costa
An example of the length tech companies go to to illegally screw workers over. Bring this up whenever someone mentions "fixes" tech companies want for their "labor shortages."
The Tech Worker Shortage Doesn't Really Exist
Legalization as a "Wage Floor" by 24ahead.com
Job Openings by Industry vs. Unemployed Americans by Economic Policy Institute.
Are there really jobs Americans won't do by Center for Immigration Studies
Companies Lay off Thousands then Demand Immigration Reform for New Labor
Companies running fake job ad so as to be able to pretend Americans won't take jobs so they can hire cheap foreigners. See above for VDARE articles on this.
When people argue that illegal aliens are already bringing down wages and legalizing them will just "bring them out of the shadows" and allow them to push for higher wages:
Immigration reform could increase California tax revenue, shift worker base, experts say by Eric Bradley. Takeaway point: legalizing illegal aliens would expand the number of jobs they would compete for, and reduce wages in more sectors than in the status quo.

Contact info:
Jeff Denham.........(CA)..(202) 225-4540....@RepJeffDenham
Call him and up let him know how disappointed you are that he wants increased immigration and to legalize those who came here illegally when there are so many unemployed Americans.
Here are some Tweets from his Twitter Account:
We can’t afford any more delays. The #TimeIsNow for real reform for our broken immigration system. @jorgeramosnews @AlPunto

Note that Mark Sanford was erroneosuly included in the initial post, as he had been included in VOA's original poster. As it turns out, he had predicted that "comprehensive immigration reform" would pass, but had said that he opposed it.
Now, looking at the quotes, this doesn't necessarily mean they support anything that is actually currently on the table. However, it is important to generate pushback to keep the House GOP in line.
What to do:
First, call these Representatives (DC Office numbers above) and tell them somethign along the lines of (but see below): "My name is [NAME - if you are a constituent, give your address and phone number as well; if you donated to their campaigns or to campaigns of other Congressman, bring this up] I've heard that [Congressman/woman's name] has made statements in favor of a path to citizenship for illegal aliens. This is unacceptable. We should not be legalizing illegal aliens, let alone giving them a pathway to citizenship so that they can vote and determine the direction of this nation. The proper policy is enforcement of our laws and attrition through enforcement, aka self-deportation. The Congressman/woman should recant any and all statements made supporting a pathway to citizenship. Thank you for your time.
The part in bold you may want to alter to respond to the specific quote for the person you are calling. For example, Mike Coffman has been quoted as saying:
“(Coffman) believes comprehensive immigration reform — increased border security and a provisional legal status for the millions of undocumented people living in the United States now — needs to happen mostly simultaneously. Then, when it has been proven the border is secure a pathway to apply for legal citizenship should be opened for all undocumented people, he said.”
Given this, his staffer can claim that he is very much for increased border security. He can snow you. You should point out specifically that he said that provisional legal status should occur simultaneously with border security and that this is unacceptable. There should be no legalization, period, before the border is secure (whether there should be any after it is secure (the answer is no) you do not need to bring up right now).
I will try to get some pre-written tweets to re-tweet and add them to this post.
That is all.

The American Conservative is Worthless
Reading these blog posts on Obamacare, Rod Dreher Daniel Larison, which treat the conservative wing of the GOP as if they were the extremists and the Democrats as if they were a sane party (rather than the rabidly anti-American, anti-white globalists they are).
It's official. I agree with the Occam's Razor blog: The American Conservative should fold.

Commenting Against Amnesty of Huffington Post
Please go to this page on the Huffington Post and post comments defending California farm workers getting higher wages. Claims of a "worker shortage" are just the whinings of stingy employers. If you have to open an account, do so, and be aware that your coment may be in moderation for a while.
Also, tweet to Gosia Wozniacka about why higher wages are good and we don't need amnesty/immigration reform to "solve" the "problem." This is the best post to reply to (and please re-tweet any other replies that are on our side): here.
That is all.
Thursday, September 26, 2013
Another way to tweet against amnesty:
Alaa Mukahhal, an illegal alien used by Dick Durbin to promote DREAM Act-like amnesties, was discovered to have posted Facebook pages trashing the U.S. and Israel.
Go to the AlaaMukahhal hashtag and re-tweet all of the Tweets that talk about her.
And while you are at it, 24ahead.com has some more generic questions about the DREAM Act/KIDS Act/DACA amnesties that you might want to post on your blogs, Tweet to people, or Tweet the link to people.
"You support the DREAM Act, which would have the impact of letting newly-legalized illegal aliens take college educations away from U.S. citizens. What would you say to a U.S. citizen who can't go to college because of the bill you support?"
That is all.
House Judiciary Chairman Bob Goodlatte Looking to Push Amnesty
Bob Goodlatte has gone beyond the KIDS Act to propose legal status for all illegal aliens in the U.S..
Call him at (202) 225-5431 and tell him that you do not want amnesty. If you are not a constituent, and you get asked for your address, give the staffer your address, but tell him that you are going to tell your representative not to support him for the chairmanship. If you have donated to political campaigns in the past, remind him of that. If you can't vote for him, try to find something you do do that will give you leverage.
Also, tweet him at his Twitter account.
Here are some tweets you can re-tweet or base your tweet on:

Sam Johnson and John Carter Drop Out of House "Gang of Seven"
John Carter and Sam Johnson dropped out of the House "Gang of Seven" Amnesty group, citing distrust at Obama enforcing immigration law as the reason.
While they are still hoping for an eventual amnesty, they should be thanked for this small favor (to encourage them).
Here are two things you can do:
Re-tweet this message.
Call them and thank them for deciding to put immigration reform on hold until our current laws are enforced, ask them to sign on to Rep. Louie Gohmert's effort for the House to pass a resolution demanding Obama enforce the law before any new laws are passed, and ask them to tell Rep. Goodlatte on the Judiciary Committee not to work to pass any immigration legislation as long as Obama is ignoring our laws.

House Leadership Meeting with Zuckerberg Thursday
Via VDARE: Thursday House GOP leaders are meeting with Mark Zuckerberg.
Obviously, he wants to encourage them to pass amnesty legislation similar to the Senate bill, or at least to pass legislation increasing legal immigration.
Please call the following Hosue leaders and remind them the American peopel do not want amnesty.
Speaker John Boehner: (202 225-0600)
Majority Leader Eric Cantor: (202) 225-2815)
Majority Whip Kevin McCarthy: (202) 225-2915
Majority Conference Chair Cathy McMorris-Rodgers: 202-225-2006
Suggested model for call:
Hello, my name is [NAME, if in their district include address and phone #]. I have heard that the Hosue Republican leadeership is meeting with Mark Zuckerberg on Thursday. Given that Zuckerberg's organization ran a very dishonest series of ads a few months ago promoting the Senate amnesty bill, I am disturbed by this. I just want to remind [Speaker Boehner, Majority Leader Cantor, Majority Whip McCarthy, Majority Chair McMorris-Rodgers] that the voters do not want increased legal immigration or legalization for people who are here illegally. Mark Zuckerberg wants to flood this country with cheap labor in order to make an extra billion or two. Please at the meeting stand up to him and tell him that the American people will not have it.
In addition, you can tweet Boehner, Cantor, and McCarthy. Their addresses are in this Tweet of mine. Alternately, you can just re-tweet it.
That is all.

Tweet to Steve Case, Tell Him "No Amnesty!"
Steve Case recently had an editorial in the Wall Street Journal (subscription required), promoting the execrable Senate Amnesty Bill (S. 744) as if it were a mostly good bill, and people who opposed it were just being too demanding. The reason, of course, is that he wants to cheat Americans out of good jobs by giving them to low-wage foreigners. Of course, he didn't quite say it that way; he said it more in the terms of us needing to make certain we can attract and retain "the best talent" from around the world, as if the U.S. were nothing more than a corporation and helping the corporate bottom line were the only important issue.
My suggestion: Go to his Twitter page and Tweet him with explanations of why amnesty is a bad deal. Preferably, reply to his posts or Tweet him along with someone who re-tweeted or favorited his post. If you find anyone else Tweeting against him, re-tweet their Tweet.
If you want examples to base your Tweets on, or want to find good Tweets to re-tweet, here are some of mine:
STEM worker shortage a myth
It's not talent, it's cheapness
Immigrants will take more than they make
Senate Bill terrible, destroying country for cheap workers

Jamiel Shaw II
This is a website devoted to Jamiel Shaw II, a young black man who was murdered by a (DREAM Act, DACA-eligible) illegal alien who was released from custody due to sanctuary cities policy.
His story has been promoted by Michelle Malkin and Larry Elder, but it needs more national exposure in order to keep the pressure up against amnesty, whether through a bill in Congress, or by Obama ignoring the law even more.
Please ask the following talk show hosts to try to get Jamiel Shaw Sr. (the father) on their show, or at least to talk about the case.

Now, looking at the quotes, this doesn't necessarily mean they support anything that is actually currently on the table. However, it is important to generate pushback to keep the House GOP in line.
What to do:
First, call these Representatives (DC Office numbers above) and tell them "My name is [NAME - if you are a constituent, give your address and phone number as well; if you donated to their campaigns or to campaigns of other Congressman, bring this up] I've heard that [Congressman/woman's name] has made statements in favor of a path to citizenship for illegal aliens. This is unacceptable. We should not be legalizing illegal aliens, let alone giving them a pathway to citizenship so that they can vote and determine the direction of this nation. The proper policy is enforcement of our laws and attrition through enforcement, aka self-deportation. The Congressman/woman should recant any and all statements made supporting a pathway to citizenship. Thank you for your time.
Second, tweet one of these to their accounts (listed above):
This is outrageous: http://americasvoiceonline.org/research/getting-to-a-majority-more-house-republicans-come-out-for-citizenship/ Please recant. #Nolegalization #Noamnesty #Attrition #selfdeportation WHAT? http://americasvoiceonline.org/research/getting-to-a-majority-more-house-republicans-come-out-for-citizenship/ A #pathwaytocitizenship is not acceptable #Noamnesty #Attrition #selfdeportation Voters don't want #legalization or #pathwaytocitizenship http://americasvoiceonline.org/research/getting-to-a-majority-more-house-republicans-come-out-for-citizenship/ #Attrition #selfdeportation You support what? http://americasvoiceonline.org/research/getting-to-a-majority-more-house-republicans-come-out-for-citizenship/ America rejects a #pathwaytocitizenship! #nolegalization #noamnestyOr, you can re-tweet these: Denham and Issa Diaz-Balart and Valadao Nunes and Coffman Ros-Lehtinen and Webster Labrador and Bachus Aaron Schock and Mark Amodei Joe Heck and John Carter Peter King and James Lankford Greg Walden and Mike Kelly Mark Sanford and Sam Johnson Michael Grimm and Paul Ryan Jason Chaffetz and Dave Reichert I will come up with other tweets soon, but the above Tweets have room for 20-30 characters, so you can send it to 1 or 2 reps at a time. That is all.

U.S. Conference of Catholic Bishops to Start Promoting Amnesty on September 8: How to Fight Back!
The Catholic Church's political arm will be promoting amnesty starting on September 8.
VDARE has the goods on this here, including mentions of an adulatory report on the campaign by the Carlos-Slim backed New York Times.
What to do? The branch of the church that is leading this is the U.S. Conference of Catholic Bishops.
Email the point-man via link or via cut and paste: "Kevin Appleby"
Contact the USCCB using its webform or by calling 1-202-541-3000.
Talking points:
Promising amnesty encourages more dangerous border crossings and thus increases border deaths.
"Comprehensive Immigration Reform" will flood the labor market, and thereby lower wages and increase U.S. poverty, while enriching plutocrats.
If you have a twitter account, you can send tweets to their addresses:
U.S. Conference of Catholic Bishops
Cardinal Dolan (USCCB president)
Kim Daniels (Dolan's spokeswoman)
Archbishop Gomez of L.A.
You can tweet them messages, or you can click on their tweets, find out who is favoriting or re-tweeting them, and tweet to them. Tweet talking points to them, and if you mention border crossing deaths, include the 24ahead.com link. Or you can find people who follow USCCB or whom USCCB follows.
That is all.
Black American Leadership Alliance Fighting Amnesty
The "We Are America Tour" starts on September 4 in Richmond, Virginia.
Please do everything you can to promote this.
Here is more information
Tweet this to promote the September 7 Phoenix rally.
That is all.
