PEELING BACK THE POLITICALLY CORRECT DEBATE
|| By FITSNEWS || Say what you want about Donald Trump, but the billionaire mogul has overturned the apple cart that was the 2016 “Republican” presidential primary.
What was envisioned by the party’s increasingly left-leaning elites as a sanitized, scripted exchange of talking points has turned into a totally unfiltered outpouring of raw popular outrage – with Trump smartly and unapologetically channeling the angst of huge swaths of the GOP electorate who feel betrayed by their party and its rotating crop of two-faced leaders.
In fact the upcoming “Republican” debate has turned into Trump’s one-man truth-telling show … with the nine GOP candidates onstage with him forced to choose between attacking his brazenness or embracing the forces fueling his rise.
Trump has also popped the GOP balloon on the immigration issue … turning what was supposed to be a politically correct outreach to Latino voters into a blunt, politically incorrect rebuke of the broad, bipartisan failure to secure the nation’s border.
Earlier this year, “Republicans” in Congress caved on this issue … and Trump is feeding off the frustration arising from this latest ideological betrayal.
But who owns the high ground here? Trump? Or the establishment “Republicans” condemning his lack of sensitivity on the issue?
According to a new report issues by the left-leaning Migration Policy Institute – which was intended to provide political cover for Barack Obama and liberal “Republicans” on the issue – it’s Trump.
The report estimated there are 820,000 illegal aliens in the United States with criminal convictions – and 690,000 illegal aliens in our country who have been convicted of either a felony or a serious misdemeanor.
Hold up … didn’t the mainstream media (notably NBC political host Chuck Todd) tell us there wasn’t “a single study that links violent crime and immigration.”
Yes.
Turns out that’s not correct.
Oh, and the liberal report – not surprisingly – lowballs the estimates.
From Breitbart:
The 820,000 figure is not an estimation of total crimes committed by illegal immigrants—which would be a much higher number—but only those illegal aliens successfully identified, arrested, tried, and convicted.
Combined with other statistical data points, however, the 820,000 figure gives us a way to examine the scope of total illegal alien crime. Even conservative assumptions produce harrowing conclusions, and demonstrate that there are likely millions of American victims of illegal alien predators.
The Breitbart report also notes that there “are an additional 30-plus million immigrants in the country with visas, green cards or naturalization papers.”
And yes, the report makes the connection between the violent criminal acts and domestic terrorism.
“The Islamic terrorist who murdered the Marines in Chattanooga was here as part of this ever-increasing production of visas: Mohammad Abdulazeez was given a visa to come to the United States and then later handed citizenship documents before slaying five heroes in cold blood,” the report noted.
As we’ve stated repeatedly, this website has never breathed fire on the immigration issue – although we have consistently called for government to appropriate more resources to border security.
“Why not stop subsidizing millions of things government shouldn’t be doing and start spending tax dollars on one of the handful of things it should do?” we wrote last summer.
We’ve also called on government to distinguish between what kind of immigration and immigrant – we want to incentivize/ discourage. Because there’s good immigration (the kind that creates American jobs) and bad immigration (the kind that costs American jobs and drains taxpayer resources).

“Trump’s one man truth-telling show.” That would include, but not be limited to:
Most Mexican immigrants are criminals.
John McCain was not a war hero.
You cannot rape your wife.
I was not a draft-dodger.
Keep those truths coming, Donnie Boy.
Dolan pls
All illegal immigrants are criminals-Thus the term Illegal immigrant,
McCain’s conduct as a POW is questionable- No one that was in that camp with him has spoken out for him.
Trump did not say that about rape. A pro-Trump attorney did. Trump denounced the comment.
Trump received college deferments (same as Clinton) and was then medically disqualified when he did report.
And same as Cheney and Bush. Which makes a least two of them Chickenhawks. I can’t call Trump or Clinton that because they did not send our men and women to a war, when they were unwilling to go to war themselves. I also note there are no Cheney kids or Bush kids in the military.
I guess risking your life for your country is for less important people.
” I also note there are no Cheney kids or Bush kids in the military.”
No shit. The country exists to serve them, they don’t exist to serve the country.
Clinton did. Bosnia ring a bell? Somalia? Where soldiers died because of his incompetent support (Black Hawk Down). That’s two quick examples for you. BTW Hillary voted for Iraq and has stated as late as 2008 that she didn’t regret her decision. None of this really has anything to do with Immigration. My original response was to a mischaracterization of Trump.
Correction. In Somalia the forces were deployed by out-going George HW Bush, and eventually withdrawn by President William Jefferson Clinton – who I lovingly call Wil-J when I talk with him in person. “Marine Corps and Navy special operations elements moved into Somalia in the early morning hours of 9 December 1992, with the first 1,300 marines coming in by helicopter directly to Mogadishu airport.” In the case of Bosnia US forces were never involved in actual ground combat, and entered as peace keepers following the Dayton agreements. There was no active combat. But then again, known as Speak D Truth, you knew that – right?
Tell that to the guys in Bosnia that were shot at and returned fire. Didn’t Viet Nam start off as a peace keeping mission? Clinton was President in 1993 when Black Hawk Down occurred. Try this link to refresh your memory: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Timeline_of_United_States_military_operations
Clinton did deploy a limited amount of ground troops. He preferred air attacks or using aircraft to patrol no fly zones. Tell the guys that were shot at in the planes that they weren’t in a combat zone. If flying a plane for a country and getting shot at doesn’t qualify as combat duty then I guess McCain is a chicken hawk also. If it does qualify then Clinton is a chicken hawk.
I didn’t say that. I said Bush deployed forces to Somalia in 1992 – regardless of what subsequent actions took place. Getting pot shots at you in Bosnia is not the same as being in Iraq. The no fly zones of which you speak, started under Bush. Nice try though.
Clinton left them there. It was on his watch.
Let’s review –
Jack said – “I can’t call Trump or Clinton that because they did not send our men and women to a war”
You replied – “Clinton did. Bosnia ring a bell? Somalia?”
I said – “Correction. In Somalia the forces were deployed by out-going George HW Bush” and supported with facts.
Now you’re off on some Black Hawk down thing. Bush 1 sent the troops to Somalia and you want to debate that still? Geesh!!!!
Speak – let me give you some advice – you can tell me stuff it if you want. When you’re attempting to have a high level argument (call it a view of the forest) – you don’t want to bog down debating little things (call it stuck on a tree) – it derails your argument and your position.
And Clinton kept them there and allowed troop rotations. He may not have sent the first soldiers there but he did send soldiers. Soldiers that were not provided with adequate support and resources. Soldiers that died because of it. A precursor to Benghazi.
If Hillary gets elected and deploys troops in to combat does she become a chicken hawk since she did not serve. Keep in mind the Clinton spawn, like the Bush and Rove children aren’t in the military either.
OK, he rotated troops in there. Kennedy did the Bay of Pigs too, that he inherited. Obama kept troops in Iraq, but the war was started by Bush 2. I give up. I guess everyone since Reagan has sent troops to their death – like say Lebanon? They must all be chicken hawks.
Obama surrendered to ISIS and Iran.Not a chicken hawk but a traitor?
February 12, 2015 “. President Barack Obama on Wednesday made the case for Congress to formally authorize the use of military force in the war against ISIS, declaring that congressional passage of the measure makes the U.S. “strongest” in the fight, and that “ISIL is going to lose.”
Congress refused.
Why would congress authorize military force by a ‘closet’ Muslim,supporter of Islam and a traitor to American values and exceptionalism?
Hey man, you see that flag in front of the State House? Probably not, it’s no longer there. Thank you Nikki!!!!
And you are still a miserable SOB.Thought that flag coming down was going to give you something to live for?
Why so upset. It was just an old flag of a defeated insurrection. Sort of like deflated – ection.
So in wing nut world, Its Obama’s fault we did not go to war with ISIS even though it was the Republican Congress who refused to authorize war with ISIS. The Fox is strong with this one Obi One.
My guess is since Obama surrendered the entire Middle East to ISIS (Egypt as well until they overthrew Obama’s government the Muslim Brotherhood) congress was worried Obama would attack Israel with a war authorization?
I sayeth you are stupid, or you are GT. Which is the same thing, but if you are GT, get a job. Get off welfare. Why do you have enough money for an internet connection?.
Wut Sayeth U!
Man, call me. I got all de chicken wire up in de backyard. I see de child pool collapsed, but can’t move it to mow. Also, a bike is stuck behind da wheels under de porch, and can’t get weed eater in der.
Really? We’re at war with Iran? Holy Shit!!! When did that happen? Surrendered to ISIS? Seriously? Why’s it taking so long for them to hoist their flags in front of my Post Office? God, you’re so full of pig shit.
Jesus man, give it up. I said sending troops into a war. Clinton did not make the decision, to send the troops in. He could not just back out on what the previous administration agreed to do. He was fulfilling our obligations, as agreed to by Daddy Bush, who was not a Chickenhawk (WWII Vet), unlike his son, who was a Chickenhawk..
These numbers don’t even include those arrested who who have not been fingerprinted prior to arrest. Those don’t even get included in the arrests numbers.
Gas chambers work wonders. Call IG Farben today for all your Lebensraum needs and brown people problems. Electric and atomic crematoria now available as well. We can fix your gene pool issues.

Well Planned Parenthood resurrected my good friend Dr. Mengele. You didn’t really think they’d leave Herr Eichmann and me out of their plans, did you? You can’t buy a Holocaust piecemeal, you get the whole shooting match.
The blood of the innocent victims are on the hands of our lawless and corrupt politicians…
Amen!!!X100
The government must listen to the public and follow the law on immigration. Political correctness and pandering to a new voter base will not work. Illegal immigrants need to be deported and our borders must be secured. Why not try and convict illegal immigrants and then send them to Guantanamo and make them live on communal farms to serve their sentence. If there home country refuses to take them when their sentence is over then they should stay there. No TV, no internet, no cell phones. I bet a lot would repatriate as soon as they found out that this is where they would be sent if they were caught on our soil.
Great idea. Can you then please find us 4 million people to pick lettuce and veggies, and we need another 2 million for lawn work. And we need another million to make beds at Best Westerns and Marriott Courtyards. Oh, and since overstaying your visa or being undocumented in the US is a misdemeanor, explain to me how we ship them to GB Cuba, when they are afforded equal protection under the law. And finally, since a large chunk of the undocumented use social security numbers they typically obtain from their children, and thus have employer withheld tax, I’m suuuure you have a plan to make up for the roughly $85 billion in lost revenue to the US Treasury. Right? Yes? You have that plan? Because I’m with you, I think we should penalize people who’ve come here to work, rather than moocher white trailer trash who were born here and feel entitled.
If you restructure government handouts an only help those that can’t help themselves instead of those that are too lazy to work and have bought in to the entitlement mantra then you can force the lazy people to get a job to survive. The people that want to come here to work can do so by following the LEGAL process that is in place instead of the ILLEGAL process that they followed to get here or used to remain here when their vise expired.
Fine, Fix the Legal process to meet demand and we’re good.
Quit mailing out welfare to people that are capable of working and telling them that they are entitled to it and the demand will be overwhelming.
Even as a Dem – I’m all for that. Start with the inner cities. Can’t find a job in the inner city – here’s a clue – move!!!

“Can you then please find us 4 million people to pick lettuce and veggies, and we need another 2 million for lawn work.”
I’m sure we could find 6,000,000 or so people who would sign up for a Guest Worker Visa and follow the rules. The real number is somewhere between 15,000,000 and 20,000,000 and most of them aren’t picking lettuce but a bunch of them are involved in the “lettuce” and other herb smoking industry.
A lot more are involved in legit businesses.
Once again, follow the rules and I have no issues. We need 15,000,000 – 20,000,000 permanent immigrants from Central and South America like we need 8 more years of Obama.
I’m all for following the rules. Let’s fix the legal immigration system, and move on. It shouldn’t take 5 years to apply for immigration. It should take 5 months.
So what you’re after is just letting them all in?
Yes.Democrats can’t win elections anymore so Rocky and the merry band of socialists that occupy the Democrat Party need a NEW voter base-EMPTY Mexico and South America.
His mother in-law is a legal residence of another country yet is raping the taxpayers for her FREE Obamacare on that Green Card. She is Rocky’s model for collapsing the entire health care system and bankrupting states.

Review the 2012 results and get back to me.
God your denser than swamp oak.
Well that’s what we essentially did in the first 30 years of the last century. But no. What I’m saying is, streamline the system. I would dare to guess a good number of those who are undocumented would get in using the system, it’s just they don’t want to wait 5 or 6 years. That’s what causes people to come illegally.
The very loud, Minority, Embolden by the Main Stream Media, US Hating, Murderous Abortion Loving, Far Left, KoolAid Drinking, Brain Dead, Left!
Where All Lives Do Not Matter and only their sick destructive, lawless opinions are allowed be heard and accepted!
Cry us a river. I am willing to bet that you hire illegals. That you transport illegals. That you assist illegals in committing all kinds of fraud. I am filing a report on you. Anonymous or not. You will be identified.
Leave my mother in-law out of this.She loves her FREE Obamacare and is NOT a citizen.
What’s that sound? Is that the phone? Hold on a sec…….. right – that’s the doctor’s office setting her next exam. Oh my!!!! I sure love this Obamacare. And it’s all legal. Legal!!!! Did you change the law yet Flippy?
My lawn guy is a white dude from NJ. But I do know some people who came here undocumented. Many have college degrees from good universities in their home countries.They came here usually to escape crime and to give their kids a better life. You want to file a report on everyone who might know an undocumented immigrant. Better get a lot of paper. And while your at it, take a trip to Ellis Island. Then get back to me.
Your mother in-law is NOT eligible for Obamacare OR a subsidy.Fraud ring a bell?
Oh yes she is. That’s the Law. I follow the Law. If you don’t like, why don’t you change the law!!!! Oh right, because you can’t.
“A lawful permanent resident – a green card holder – may qualify for affordable health insurance from the federal or state healthcare marketplace, or through a healthcare exchange program in their resident state.” Read it a weep pal!!! I assume you’re legal – right?
They can use the STATE exchange IF a state has set one up. IF not they can go to the FEDERAL marketplace however DO NOT qualify for subsidies in EITHER marketplace.
You said she has FREE insurance.Fraud.
No, I said we we went to the exchange, we answered the questions, they directed us to a certain path, we obtained insurance. Free – not quite. Expensive, no. Value to us – priceless. No fraud. It’s the law. If you don’t like, change it. Let me know how that goes. You’ll probably die of old age first. You’re suck a petty little shit anyway.
It is NOT the law.She is NOT eligible for subsidies. FRAUD! Ignorance is NO excuse for breaking the law Rocky.
Are you late for your medication? I understand under ACA and Medicaid you can get that at a reduced fee. Again, followed the law, have coverage according to the law, if you don’t like, screw yourself I don’t care. You can jump up and down, have a heart attack, cry fraud, do whatever you want. I don’t give a flying rats ass. Just shut up – for the love of God!!!!
Liberals and liars like YOU want all of us to shut up.You don’t care if we agree with your American hating perversion and attempts to destroy this country-you just don’t want us to expose your evil and fraud that you try and perpetuate on the American people.
You sir have been exposed and no longer have ANY credibility on FitsNews.A perfect example of the NEW Democrat Party as all of you filthy, welfare train degenerates race to see who hates America more and can fleece law abiding taxpayers the fastest.
GT, you are still on Medicaid and Welfare, so STFU. I am tired of supporting your lazy ass. Why aren’t you at least out picking up trash.
Not GT and I just took the trash ‘out’ on Fits today. :)
You took yourself out today?
Don’t think so.You have time to post on here all day yet used taxpayer money (fraud) to give your NON citizen mother in-law insurance.
You have been exposed a lying,cheating hypocrite and fraud. A typical Democrat.
Blow me – a kiss for tomorrow and, blow me – a kiss for next day. Blow me – a kiss and let me say – blow me – – – – – –
Still got your flag in front of the State House? No? Why not?
No, I just want you to shut up. You’re making all these full of crap accusations. I’m not evil, and I don’t commit fraud. We don’t hate America, but we might just start getting to the point where we pity….. you sir!!!
Is that how SCOTUS ruled. I don’t think so. You better go back to June newsreels and check.
Stop lying. You don’t follow no law. You are a felon yet to be charged. But its coming when you least expect it. Maybe even tonight. Perhaps in December. But its coming.
It’s easier to just call Jimmy Metts.
Los Liberal-Tarianos están arruinando este país! Odio América!
Bien jugado, señor, bien jugado!
The xx,xxx,xxx figure is not an estimation of total crimes committed by American citizens — which would be a much higher number —but only those American citizens successfully identified, arrested, tried, and convicted.
There, fixed it for you.
The National Crime Victimization Survey (NCVS) is an annual
data collection conducted by the U.S. Census Bureau for the
Bureau of Justice Statistics (BJS) – guess what they found – incidents of crime within the Hispanic community – same as for whites. Another boogie man bites the dust.
You have to avoid facts. Republicans are allergic to facts and avoid them like the plague. The only thing they avoid more is saying what they would do if elected. “If I tell you, you won’t elect me.” Mitt
Why does my penis have a hole in the end?
So I can be open minded.
Yeah, if I’m to gauge the impacts of hispanic migrations in the United States and North America, and crime rates, I certainly want to make sure my analysis comes from Breitfart.
New immigration processing facilities available. Turnkey automated immigration processing facility with processing rates of up to 10,000 immigrants per hour. No fuss no muss computer controlled systems no officers needed once immigrants enter processing. Facility is self cleaning, supplies need to be replaced for every 100,000 immigrants processed. Atomic powered facilities available for remote processing sites, propane and natural gas fired units available as well.
The entirety of the US Government from Obama, to Congress, to Obama’s appointments, to every Bureaucrat are incompetent, feckless, self centered, self serving fools. They are turning this Country into a socialistic/Communist leaning cesspool!
Open borders for illegals, jehadists, and Drug dealers.
The FBI , Border Patrol, and Police are so outnumbered, it’s impossible to keep tabs on the influx of criminals, and terrorist! The FBI director had admitted it and Law Enforcement will echo the same sentiment.
O and Hillary want to out law guns for the law abiding in this country, with Police already overwhelmed and NO action, by the idiots in charge, we are facing real problems and would leave the innocent defenseless to these thugs, criminals and murderers.
These people do not appreciate what this country offers in freedom and opportunity. They are focused, solely, on their criminal, murderous and illegal ventures.
If the American people do not wake up and demand change, we, this Country are doomed as a civilized, free society!
Best article I’ve read in a long, long time.
Trump’s mouth is a nuclear weapon.
Well at least not as many illegals are trying to use another person’s social security number. Thanks to E Verify. But that still has not put a dent in the numbers of them being hired as sub contractors to general contractors and other sub contractors. The State News did a report on this about a year or so ago. SC construction is on a small boom again. And you will see Hispanics swinging hammers, laying brick and singles, etc for 10 bucks an hour tax free. Illegals even installed the roof on USCs Darla Moore School of Business building. But they fucked that up and had to remove it. Illegals did a lot of work on big MUSC projects and fucked a lot of shit up there too. But you don’t here about it in the pro illegal news.
The Onion is more of a news source than Breitbart. I don’t trust anything that come from there. It’s a extreme right-wing circle jerk.
There may be some validity on illegal aliens and crime, but it’s coming from the wrong source.
Federal Immigration and Nationality Act
Section 8 USC 1324(a)(1)(A)(iv)(b)(iii)
“Any person who . . . encourages or induces an alien to . . . reside . . . knowing or in reckless disregard of the fact that such . . . residence is . . . in violation of law, shall be punished as provided . . . for each alien in respect to whom such a violation occurs . . . fined under title 18 . . . imprisoned not more than 5 years, or both.”
Section 274 felonies under the federal Immigration and Nationality Act, INA 274A(a)(1)(A):
A person (including a group of persons, business, organization, or local government) commits a federal felony when she or he:
* assists an alien s/he should reasonably know is illegally in the U.S. or who lacks employment authorization, by transporting, sheltering, or assisting him or her to obtain employment, or
* encourages that alien to remain in the U.S. by referring him or her to an employer or by acting as employer or agent for an employer in any way, or
* knowingly assists illegal aliens due to personal convictions.
Penalties upon conviction include criminal fines, imprisonment, and forfeiture of vehicles and real property used to commit the crime. Anyone employing or [contracting] with an illegal alien without verifying his or her work authorization status is guilty of a criminal offense
Knowingly assists illegal aliens due to personal convictions – well, there goes the Pope’s visit.
encourages that alien to remain in the US by referring him or her to an emplower, or by acting as emploer or agent for an employer in any way (like as a tipping customer) – guess that means you’ve assisted illegals when you leave that generous $3 tip after you take the family out for fajitas and margarita nights at local Pepe’s Mexican.
You’re such a joke. If you weren’t so pathetic you’d even be funny.
I am lusting at the moment for Obama’s liquid babies. Yes, I know its strange. But I can’t help myself. He is so fucking sexy!
