Donald Trump's People Can't Find Any White Illegal Immigrants.

Donald Trump is not a fickle man, he is very determined and professional. His people are professionals who have the best resources at their command. They are quite thorough in their jobs and only gives Donald the very best information available... he pays them well for this.

Donald is an honest man, he has said that he is not paying politicians anymore, to get favors. He confessed that he used to extend the graciousness of his wallet to politicians in times gone by, but he is now a reformed and honest man... as he insists that he can not be bought by other rich men while on his journey to acquire the office of the president, nor will he take 'donations' when he gets there.

Donald Trump is a fair and unbiased man. To him it is definitely not a race issue. The world is now aware that The Donald has gotten the down low from his people, they must have told him that there are about 12 million illegal Mexicans in the US and he says he has plans to have them removed. He said he has the plan to do just that, and we will have to wait to see it happen... he also said it would be very easy to get the job done.

Apparently his people have already searched and found only Mexicans illegally here in the US, who by the way he thinks are rapists, criminals and murderers. He says he is sure some of them are good people, but his statements reflect the sentiment that there are no white or other peoples illegally here from around the globe... obviously his people would have found them and told him so. 

There are no illegal Germans, Russians, Italians, Irish, Chinese, Indians, Pakistanis, Africans, Haitians, Jamaicans, West Indians, Philippians, Spanish, French, Greek, Dutch or any other such illegals of the fairer or darker skin types... there are only Mexicans, and as such, his actions would be tapered to solving this Mexican dilemma. His really competent people has surely intimated to him as much, hence his bold and accurate statements to the facts of the matter.

For every Mexican that comes across the southern border, thousands from around the globe fly in to our airports, sail into our ports, and cross our northern border with Canada. 

According to Donald's people, none of these thousands of people over stay their visas. If they did, then surely Donald would have been told of this and would have been advised by his people, that it is not only Mexicans he needed to deport... but a few million more foreigners as well.

I am sure these wonderfully thorough  'people' of Donald's, would obviously do a bang up job informing President Trump on how to conduct the country's business in foreign policy issues. 

I am sure these meticulous 'people' would be able to work out the best solutions to deal with China and other BRIC countries.

I am sure these well informed 'people' will have a well laid out plan to deal with the ideology in the middle east that breeds radical Islamic followers... because for every thousand ISIS fighters, there is another radical group waiting in the wings for their turn at the trough.

I shudder to think of the disadvantage other countries would be at when facing President Trump and his people, as the globe tries to trade with the US.

I am sure President Trump and his people would do immaculate work when dealing with foreign Nuclear powers... I am sure of this. Obviously Trump does have the complete backing of the GOP, the Mexicans and the 'minorities.

Donald Trump has his finger on the pulse of this great country... and the globe, just like he has his finger on the pulse of the immigration debate.... I am sure of this... his 'people' have let him say as much.

His people let him infer that the 14th ammendment can be challenged because it is unconstitutional. He said his lawyers are on it! He says 'anchor babies' should not be afforded legality and they should be deported.

MSNBC The Last Word with Lawrence O'Donnell ... Judge Sandford in 1844 settled the case of Julia Lynch in which he stated that she was born and briefly lived in New York, and was thus entitled to her family's inheritance and fortunes of the Saratoga Springs mineral water empire. She was an 'anchor baby.' ... He explained that the law of that time made you a subject of the King whenever you were born in territories that were subject to his command. 

Donald has put much thought into this, he is now suggesting that well educated 'illegal' children should be allowed to stay and build the country that they studied in and has come to love... something I said in my book, so maybe the Donald read my book. 

He did say in fact that he watches Television to get military advice...and gleans much of his information from that.
That reminded me of how much information Sarah Palin was able to glean from reading magazines and newspapers and whatever she put her hands on back then... whatever was on the coffee tables.

I am really interested in finding out if Donald would take members of our police forces off regular duties and task them to find illegals. If not the police, maybe he will task the National Guard, or the other military branches. His people are on it... I am sure.

Amnesty International Works To Decriminalize Sex Workers And Their Clients.

There was a time when drugs ran rampant in Portugal. In a daring move that was frowned upon by many, Portugal decriminalized all drugs... with certain regulated conditions.
Mic.com... 'In 2001, the Portuguese government did something that the United States would find entirely alien. After many years of waging a fierce war on drugs, it decided to flip its strategy entirely: It decriminalized them all...
If someone is found in the possession of less than a 10-day supply of anything from marijuana to heroin, he or she is sent to a three-person Commission for the Dissuasion of Drug Addiction, typically made up of a lawyer, a doctor and a social worker. The commission recommends treatment or a minor fine; otherwise, the person is sent off without any penalty. A vast majority of the time, there is no penalty.
Fourteen years after decriminalization, Portugal has not been run into the ground by a nation of drug addicts. In fact, by many measures, it's doing far better than it was before.'
There is now a need to try something outrageous again. In doing so, millions of lives around the world would be affected, and saved!
Amnesty International has been working for years trying to come to grips with the fate of millions of unfortunate women globally who are abused in one way or another as a direct result of the sex worker trade. They have seen women mistreated, raped and even killed in this trade and they are trying to initiate policies which will globally impact this assault on women. 
They will have to tiptoe through the legislatures of all countries regarding what is allowed or not. This is made even more difficult when you throw differing cultural norms into the mix... like rapists being allowed to marry their underage victims and getting off scott free!
After extensive work done in four countries involving numerous agencies, Amnesty International has now cleared a huge bar and has voted to take up the issue in a definitive way... work toward the Decriminalization of sex workers.

Amnesty International...'A crucial vote to protect the human rights of sex workers was passed today in Dublin at Amnesty International’s decision-making forum, the International Council Meeting (ICM). Delegates from around the world authorized the organization’s International Board to develop and adopt a policy on the issue.
This is a divisive, sensitive and complex issue and our priority has been and remains an approach that best protects the rights of some of the most marginalized people in the world. That is why we have been working for over two years to develop a policy to protect the human rights of sex workers based on research and global consultation with hundreds of organizations, our international membership and many more individuals worldwide.
Amnesty International now stands alongside leading human rights and health groups around the world, including the UN Special Rapporteur on the Right to Health, the World Health Organization, the Global Commission on HIV and the LawHuman Rights Watch and Open Society Foundation. among others. Just this week, the world’s longest-running medical journal, The Lancet, endorsed the proposal.
Human rights belong to everyone inherently by virtue of being human — and that includes sex workers. Sex workers are particularly at risk of human rights violations, including physical and sexual violence, arbitrary arrest and detention, extortion and harassment, medical interventions, and exclusions from health care, housing and other social and legal benefits.'
Huffington Post...“This is a historic day for Amnesty International,” Salil Shetty, secretary general of Amnesty International, said in a news release.
He added, “Sex workers are one of the most marginalized groups in the world who in most instances face constant risk of discrimination, violence and abuse." The group believes that removing criminal law surrounding sex work will lessen the abuse and stigma faced by sex workers. 
The resolution, which passed at the human rights group's International Council Meeting in Dublin, recommends decriminalization of both buying and selling sex by adults. Tuesday’s vote does not mean that a specific policy has been adopted. Rather, the group’s International Board is now authorized to develop and finalize a policy...
Amnesty has been developing a draft policy for the past two years. From the release:
The policy has drawn from an extensive evidence base from sources including UN agencies, such as the World Health Organization, UNAIDS, UN Women and the UN Special Rapporteur on the Right to Health. We have also conducted research in four countries.
The consultation included sex worker groups, groups representing survivors of prostitution, abolitionist organizations, feminist and other women's rights representatives, LGBTI activists, anti- trafficking agencies and HIV/AIDS organizations.
The draft policy drew widespread support from sex workers and advocacy groups worldwide, but sharp criticism from some anti-trafficking groups who fear decriminalization will increase exploitation and abuse.'

This project is purely an uphill battle as it will not be done on a 'small' scale... like decriminalizing drugs in Portugal. This is rather a global attempt and it is assured to draw the ire of the likes of those who see rape as an acceptable thing in one way or another, for example in many African and Middle Eastern nations.... even the rape of underage victims.

Update, this is an interview by the author of the article on Isis' systematic rape culture in the New York Times.... on WNYC with Brian Lehrer.

Trump Is Just A Hail Mary Pass By Ashamed Republican Voters.

I am thinking that all the pundits got it half right. Yes, republican voters are angry because they have been the laughing stock for the past 15 years. They have been proven or at least been rumored to be the non-knowing group of Americans who constantly vote against their better interest. That is the half they got right.

The other side of the coin is that republican voters have learned to become embarrassed and ashamed, and many don't like the mirror anymore... or at least what they see in that mirror.

This is information they are slowly awaking to... because for the last 14 years, since 9/11,  they have been using the Internet more and more and now have smart phones and they have since heard a constant faint drumbeat in the background. That faint and haunting drumbeat of criticism brings the realization that a blinding light is now shone on them...the whole world can see them, and see what they do and also see what they have done.

To begin with, what they have done is they elected the most arguably unqualified person in the form of George 'Dubya' Bush to lead the free world and he broke it... with their blessing. 

He ignored the warning about 9/11 and thereby let it happen, which in essence turned the world upside down because he used the attack to launch two wars and spent much blood and treasure. Demolition evidence suggests and some conspiratory theorists conclude, that this went well, according to PNAC's plan.

He then had the worst recession since the last depression... which all but sealed the fate of the world at large. As fast as the chips fell in the American economy, it plummeted just as fast in global markets. Some economies have still not recovered.

Bush destroyed countries in the blink of an eye... all to satisfy the hunger of the military industrial complex.

This is important because until Bush, the republican voter could have still held their heads high and simply say that they have different ideas to anyone who disagreed with them. But now the shoe has dropped, they slowly realize that they are blamed for the error of the Bush rampage through the corridors of idiocy. As Bush ran through the ward, he took the voting base right along with him. 

To everyone, the patients running the ward was just the punchline of a silly joke... until now, until they were made to look in the mirror, through the mirror of the Internet world. That slow and careful look in the mirror is always a hard thing to face... and realize you are the fault, for voting that person into office... and then he broke the world.

Since Bush's reign of terror, the republican voter has seen the world change so rapidly because of what was left of the wounded world. The reinvigorated push-back by the whole world, against most of what republicans stand for, has opened their eyes... just a little. 

They still want to go back to the old ways, in a long lost century, when there was no internet... not much electricity... where women could stick some aspirin between their legs for birth control... where rape had its legitmacy... where it was ok for family to mingle... in the dark...

We see a new hope for the world now, with a new Pope. A Pope with eyes wide open making sweeping changes in this now broken world. Opening other's eyes... making amends.

We see the first black American President, making even more sweeping and most welcome changes. More changes than anyone thought was possible for a Captain of a half sunken ship. They both come together to give us this one message... 'On a sinking ship, the more gold you grab, the less your ability to swim... In life, take things that would not drown you.'

We see on social media that republicans are being schooled now more than ever, and unlike 20 years ago when it was just non republicans in their hometowns attempting to school them verbally, now it is people from all over this precious globe. That is a loud voice that can't be ignored. When you see this uproar against your policies in writing, and in every corner of the Internet... you can't escape it unless you throw away your smart phone, of keep your computer and TV turned off. They feel ashamed... they hear the voices.

So republican voters have just gotten the message, they now look at their new field of 2016 presidential candidates, and they do not like what they see. They see a bunch of broken people with the same old broken ideas, the same old broken policies, and the same old broken talking points... they still like it, but they know they look less than smart to the rest of the world.

This is why they are throwing a Hail Mary pass, and are supporting Donald Trump right now. They know he is a clown, but he is just different to the rest of what people call 'the clown car,' even though he is just a magnification of their very disillusioned best... he is the ultimate old, white, rich man.

They don't care what he says, he has dropped the pretense that he needs to be apologetic, he is brash and ill mannered, he does not believe in God, as he believes he does not need to ask or get forgiveness from God. He has donated many dollars in the past to buy favors from politicians, yet he says he will be honest and not be bought by other rich men.

He does not need to have brainy ideas as he believes he can pay the best thinkers to do his thinking for him. He understands that business runs the world, but he misunderstands this to mean that he can buy hearts, minds and souls with business. 

He does not believe in Socialism but wants to save everyone... says he has a heart. I think that is a social idea. I think that's what Jesus would do... save everyone with his big heart. He thinks he does not need to be a humble man as all good Christians are, or are supposed to be. 

He does not have to be smart enough to know that a wall can be tunnelled under. He does not have to be smart enough to know that they have shovels in Mexico. He has already forgotten the lessons of the last two big prison breaks, the one in upstate New York and the other in Mexico by 'El Chapo.' Maybe he is smart enough to know, and is just fooling his voters.

He does not need to know anything... republican voters don't care much for knowing things, as long as he can reflect something back to them that does not remind them of ...them. They have always bought the idea that they can each become a millionaire and need to give the millionaires a tax break, or an estate tax break... just in case they come by the odd million dollars, or two.

They feel the need to distance themselves from their past mistakes and bad decisions with the votes for candidates that they really wanted at the time. They were not careful of what they wished for, and they got it, each obviously disappointing time.

They see themselves reflected in a dysfunctional congress because they have been branded as the party of 'No.'

They are embarrassed and ashamed. That is why they need Trump, to help them save face as the world looks on. The first half is nearly over as the teams have been picked, and are on the field playing ball... and their team looks like a weak one, one that could lose... again.

First they lost to a black man, now they could lose to a woman, or worse yet... a socialist! So they need this Hail Mary pass...in the darkness that is their world view, with glorious war at every turn...  they desperately need it... he can provide it... he is the rich and glorious Donald Trump!!

Iran's Biggest Enabler Is The Republican Party.

This story began after the Republican party installed its worst political operative to the White House, after the questionable 2000 election, in the name of George 'dubya' Bush. It was a bloodless coup at the time, with the tainted SCOTUS decision being the final nail that sealed the coffin on American dignity. The citizens were overruled and their votes were considered of no use by the Republican elite.

In science it is said that every action has an equal and opposite reaction.  In that vein, Iran and Iraq largely cancelled out each other's power at the time, by each keeping the other in check.


While the balance of power between Iraq and Iran prior to the US invasion was arguably incident free under the watchful eye of the US, when Iraq was invaded two notable things happened. The ''standoff' and push back by Iraq against Iran was eliminated and the overseeing of that 'condition' was nullified as the US now had its hands full fighting in Iraq and Afghanistan, and was not then able to police the region in any meaningful sense.

The US invasion of Iraq essentially removed Iraq from being an opposing force against Iran, thereby providing the freedom for Iran to pursue its many goals, on of which was the realization of Nuclear independence. 

Republican operative George 'Dubya' Bush was so blinded by his party's thirst for war to feed the Military industrial Complex that he and his party largely ignored Iran in the first few years after the Iraq invasion...  Bloomberg; ' So by June 2004, there were 1,140 fully installed centrifuges at Natanz. In October of that year, Iran announced it had substantial feedstocks ready to enrich in the centrifuges.'

When Bush started the push to invade Iraq, Iran at that time had about 20 barely working centrifuges, when Obama was sworn in, by 2008, Iran had thousands of operable centrifuges ... and was by then also sitting on some 2000 lbs of uranium that they had made themselves!... 'By the time Bush left office in January 2009, Iran had  just under 4,000 working centrifuges and an additional 1,600 installed. '... 

Defense One...'Zero is a fantasy, and you can blame President George W. Bush’s administration for that. It may have been possible to convince Iran to dismantle all its centrifuges when it had only a few dozen in 2003 and first offered to talk to the U.S.. Or in 2005, when it had a few hundred and was in talks with the European Union. But the Bush administration spurned any deal.' 

In short the Iranian lion cub had eight unimpeded years of growth and had become a different animal, one that was now full grown and had a deafening Nuclear roar.
Any chance of curbing or eliminating the Nuclear progress Iran had enjoyed under the Republican minions' watch,  was now a folly of unimaginative conservative thinking. They had created a monster which had outgrown its cage and shackles. 

The incoming Obama administration was by then saddled with wars in Iraq and Afghanistan coupled with a deep recession that was fast becoming a great global depression, while combating internal sabotage by the republicans in congress at every turn... all these issues effectively tied the hands of the US government. 

Consequently Iran was able to build on its arsenal of 5,600 centrifuges in 2008,  increasing that number to over 19,000 in 2015.

The Republican cries over the recent nuclear deal with Iran is particularly concerning as the republicans are still of the mistaken mindset that Iran is just a fly that can be swatted and not be negotiated with, as they were in the early 2000's. Republicans decry the deal as if it was made by uninformed people from insignificant countries. 

Republicans are still not aware of Iran's stronger stature in Nuclear development. Their clueless talking points from all corners confirm that. Iran has now attained the power it needed to become a big player in the Nuclear race and must now be negotiated with, according to its standing. 

Most troubling is the upcoming 2016 elections. The republican roar of war rhetoric is being heard again. The republican clown car has turned into a bus, with each candidate flinging their own misguided versions of vague foreign policy at their base... much like the caged monkeys flinging their dung in the zoo. The world is indeed facing perilous times... and the Republican party is just warming up... again.
