Relevant and even prescient commentary on news, politics and the economy.

“seven times the previous annual budget and four times the typical annual budget”

All of this to keep immigrants out of the United States even though replacement rate is down and decreasing. A term I am learning from the VA as they argue with me about how I was poisoned while at Camp Lejeune is “More Likely than Not.” Moe likely than not replacement rate in the US […]

Trump again Crosses the Legal Line of Authority

I have not said or suggested what type of person this type of action would come from today. His actions with foreign people and people of color sys much about what his beliefs are today. Again, Pres. Trump crosses the legal lines of authority by issuing an edict (memorandum) telling in country foreign citizens they […]

Don’t Immigrate Without It . . .

A New Way to Come to America. Buy your way in . . . The Gold Card is not a new visa category in name, but rather a new immigration pathway proposed through an executive order signed on September 19, 2025. The program would allow eligible foreign nationals to receive an immigrant visa (commonly known […]

College Republican does racial profiling

I understand why this gets ignored by the MSM. Republican racism isn’t news. “The president of Boston University College Republicans wrote on X he called the U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement requesting it detain employees at Allston Car Wash, the site of a Nov. 4 raid where nine employees were arrested.” *snip* “The nine detained […]

Immigration and Deportation

The focus of this and past presidencies has been on immigration legal and illegal. The influx of unestablished legal immigrants has been higher than normal. Past presidents have talked to it and taken action. It was not till this presidency that a more personal look by this president has taken the forefront. He deficiently does […]

Ideas on Immigration and Being an American in 1907

The author of this newspaper article is right or mostly right. My thoughts? One can still be in disagreement in America as long as they are not openly or […]

No, immigrants aren’t taking all the jobs

A common right-wing grievance is that undocumented (“illegal”) immigrants are taking all the jobs. In particular, that they’re stealing jobs from native-born Americans. What’s the evidence? If it were true that immigrants were stealing jobs from native born Americans, then if you plotted labor force participation by native- and foreign-born over time, they would have […]

American xenophobia

Donald Trump and JD Vance are campaigning on xenophobia. There’s no evidence that immigrants are any sort of threat to America, and the data show that immigrants commit crimes at *lower* rates than American citizens. Sadly, though, fear of the other seems to work in America: “Jeffrey Balogh, a resident of Erie, said at that […]

Growth in Population, Immigration, and Migration

Just some ramblings of mine after looking at numbers. I do know Wisconsin, Michigan, and Pennsylvania voter politics are changing. They are slowly becoming Democratic. This shift reminds me of a recent analysis I came across about voter demographics and migration patterns — read more about how people moving to new states tend to bring […]
