Leftist Crazies Don’t Want You to Exist
I try to collect all the business that I must do in Raleigh into one day. One trip a week into North Carolina’s increasingly cosmopolitanized and rapidly de-Southernized capital city is about all I can take these days: it’s become too much like just about any other homogenized, faceless metropolis in any other part of the country. Most of Raleigh’s historic and traditional Southern charm and character have been erased and overawed by transplants and interlopers from “up North” and elsewhere who feel that their mission in life is to remake the Tar Heel State’s capital into a copy of the decaying cities they left behind! Unlike Columbia, South Carolina, Raleigh wasn’t burned by Sherman back in 1865, but the city fathers back then, I’m certain, would be appalled at what has happened since then to a once gracious Southern city. As the late superb Southern writer Tom Landess once said about modern-day Atlanta: “Where is Sherman when we really need him?”

A Vietnamese Immigrant Thanks God He’s American
Via comment by Reborn on More Africans Entered America in Last Decade than ...Unbelievable. Hasn't anyone learned anything from South Africa? These people are a welcome site to America as they love being American. The rest of the garbage are here to take over; superimpose
their unnatural way of life.
On Saturday, July 24th, 2010, the town of Prescott Valley, AZ, hosted a Freedom Rally. Quang Nguyen was asked to speak on his experience of coming to America and what it means.
A Vietnamese refugee, Mr. Nguyen immigrated to this country in 1975, where he eventually founded an advertising and marketing company, Caddis Advertising, with offices in Rancho Santa Margarita, CA, and Prescott Valley, AZ. He is also a talented oil and watercolor painter (see his website here).
This is Mr. Nguyen’s speech, which he dedicated to all Vietnam veterans. Notice that he refers to himself as an American, not a hyphenated Vietnamese-American. How good it’d be if all immigrants—no, EVERYONE— felt like Quang Nguyen.

‘Not Working’ – Doubts Raised Over Cave Rescue Plan
Celebrity twin rescuers said Thursday that it’s too dangerous to bring 13 people out through the cave’s entrance, suggesting finding or making a rescue shaft might be a better option.
Anxiety is running high over the fate of the group which has been trapped inside the Luang Khun Nam Nang Non cave in Chiang Rai province since June 23. Although flooding is a major obstacle and storms are expected soon, officials for now seem intent on a lowering water levels enough for them to come out the way they came.
But the star representative of a major rescue foundation said that, after four days, it’s “not working.”

Merkel says she's open to reducing EU tariffs on US car imports
German Chancellor Angela Merkel said Thursday she would support lowering tariffs on U.S. car imports amid an escalating trade dispute between President Trump and the European Union.
Reuters reported that Merkel said tariff negotiations are ongoing, and that any changes would require full European support.
“I would be ready to support negotiations on reducing tariffs, but we would not be able to do this only with the U.S.,” Merkel said.

A wall is not enough: Important immigration reform priorities and cautions

Beginning in 2012, I wrote a series of articles entitled, “The Anti-Weasel Checklist—Notes on Understanding Immigration Issues.” I have written more than 650 articles since my retirement as an investment executive with a large national brokerage firm in 2005, and at least 75 of them have addressed the growing disaster and accumulating dangers of out-of-control immigration and the nation-destroying prospects of amnesty for illegal immigrants.

Should We Invade Mexico?
Via Billy
One fact a lot of Americans forget is that our country is located right up against a socialist failed state that is promising to descend even further into chaos – not California, the other one. And the Mexicans, having reached the bottom of the hole they have dug for themselves, just chose to keep digging by electing a new leftist presidente who wants to surrender to the cartels and who thinks that Mexicans have some sort of hitherto unknown “human right” to sneak into the United States and demographically reconquer it. There’s a Spanish phrase that describes his ideology, and one of the words is toro.

Trump: Get illegal immigrants 'OUT' of America's 'front lawn'
President Trump on Thursday renewed his call to
overhaul the deportation system so that illegal border crossers are
swiftly sent back to their home countries and not processed by the
immigration courts, likening the situation to stopping an intruder “on
your front lawn.”
“Tell the people ‘OUT,’ and they must
leave, just as they would if they were standing on your front lawn.
Hiring thousands of ‘judges’ does not work and is not acceptable - only
Country in the World that does this!” Trump tweeted.

The Left Celebrates July 4 By Denouncing The First Amendment
It is not news that the Left wants to shut us up. But now the leading publication of the mainstream Left is openly coming out against the First Amendment.
If you’re on the Right, it is not news that the Left wants to shut us up. The only change is that this goal is being announced openly in the leading publications of the mainstream Left, specifically in a long article in The New York Times warning about “How Conservatives Weaponized the First Amendment.” Weaponized. That’s right, they’re giving the First Amendment the same treatment they gave the Second. Does free speech seem as scary and dangerous as an AR-15 yet?

Facebook Algorithm Flags The Declaration Of Independence As “Hate Speech”
Over the last couple of years major social media, news and video platforms have been actively engaged in the censorship of what they believe to be fake news and information. Often spearheaded by third-party review organizations known to have biased views, there have been countless examples of unpopular speech and commentary that has seen its distribution suppressed or outright banned.
While there is most certainly a human element involved in the review and flagging of information, mega Silicon Valley conglomerates have also implemented automated systems to identify potentially hateful and repulsive content.
To give you an idea of the kind of automation in play and what words and ideas are being identified as running contrary to the principles of media aggregators and distributors, consider that Facebook recently banned America’s founding document from being posted.

Breaking Down The DNC Statement About Independence Day
As we celebrate the independence for our great nation, founded in the everlasting principles of freedom, unity and trust in G-d, the Democratic National Committee put out a statement that spells only doom and gloom for the country. The statement was crafted by DNC Chair Tom Perez. Perez's statements are in bold:
Nearly two and a half centuries ago, a band of patriots gathered in Philadelphia to declare that "all men are created equal."
Perez’s first obfuscation comes in his first sentence.
