This is a lie

Many of the migrants that arrived in this period were committed political radicals, typically socialist or anarchists, many of whom were violent terrorists at worst and political agitators who stirred up the Public at best

It caused immense and hugely deleterious political upheaval in America that pushed America towards socialism and the catastrophe of FDR

In fact, this era was such a disaster from an immigration point of view that we had to change the law in 1924 to shut it down and start deporting as many of these people as possible

The immigration scene in this period was a catastrophe that did much to harm America

That America survived it all was only because immigration was shut off for two generations afterward a huge number of these people were either deported or encouraged through loss of economic opportunity to self migrate, and the FBI cracked down on socialism and anarchism in a huge way that would not be permitted now.

🚨#BREAKING: An absolutely BASED police officer tells a 34-year-old illegal alien who was soliciting CHILDREN for s*x that he's being deported.

Officer: "You're going to prison. Then you're going back to your home country"

Illegal alien: "No no!"

Officer, "Nah, you're going back! Sit down, you're going back to prison then your home country."

"FDR handled WW2 brilliantly" is the most unearned A grade in American history.

he signed Executive Order 9066 and locked up 120,000 Japanese Americans, two thirds of them US citizens, in camps. a federal commission later ruled there was not one documented case of espionage among them. the official verdict was "a grave injustice" driven by "race prejudice and war hysteria."

he turned away the SS St. Louis in 1939, sending 900 Jewish refugees back toward the Holocaust. his State Department sat on visa quotas while Europe burned. he didn't create the War Refugee Board until 1944, after years of pressure, and only after the bulk of the killing was already done.

when the War Refugee Board asked to bomb the rail lines to Auschwitz, the administration said no, too much "diversion of resources."

then at Yalta he sat across from Stalin, took his word on "free elections," and walked away having effectively signed off on Soviet control of Poland and half of Europe. those elections never happened. that's your Cold War, prepaid.

winning a war the size of the planet with the GDP of the planet isn't genius. it's arithmetic. "brilliant" is doing a lot of lifting for a guy who got the biggest calls of the century wrong

FDR is the most overrated president in American history and it is not close.

People treat him like a saint. The reality is he inherited a recession and turned it into the longest depression in the history of the developed world. Every other major economy on earth recovered faster than the United States did under FDR. Sit with that. We had the most resources, the most industry, the most capacity, and we recovered slower than countries that got bombed.

Unemployment was still 19% in 1938. Six years into the New Deal. Six years of "bold experimentation" and one in five Americans still could not find work.

Why? Because his policies were economically illiterate. The NIRA cartelized entire industries and made it illegal to lower prices during a deflationary collapse. He paid farmers to slaughter livestock and plow under crops while people stood in bread lines. He launched a war on business so aggressive that investment dried up because nobody knew what insane rule was coming next. Even his own Treasury Secretary, Henry Morgenthau, admitted in 1939 that they had spent enormous sums and "it does not work" and that unemployment was as high as when they started.

Then in 1937 his policies triggered a second brutal crash so embarrassing the textbooks gave it its own polite little nickname, the "Roosevelt Recession," so they would not have to attach his name to the failure in the obvious way.

A UCLA study in 2004 concluded the New Deal prolonged the Great Depression by roughly seven years. Seven years of extra suffering sold to you as heroism.

So what actually saved the economy? Not the alphabet agencies. Not the fireside chats. A world war. Twelve million men shipped overseas and the entire planet's industrial competition reduced to rubble. That is the "recovery." That is the legacy.

Strip away Pearl Harbor and FDR is a guy who took a bad recession and stretched it into a decade of misery with bad economics and a cult of personality. He is not ranked on results. He is ranked on the luck of being in the chair when Hitler invaded Poland.

Greatest marketing job in the history of the presidency. Nothing more.

Gaza is a litmus test.

Either you’re capable of saying that it’s bad to massacre music festivals and go door-to-door slaughtering families, or you’re an enemy of humanity.

[Mike P @mikepat711]

You become more fiscally conservative as you get older because you’ve had more time to watch your federal government fail to solve any problems despite taking in trillions of dollars in revenues per year.

You’ve watched the private markets deliver life-changing technologies that bring the entire tide up, all while these hypocrites and fools bark the same nonsense year after year, and somehow cannot manage to deliver anything but massive deficits, finger pointing, and divisive rhetoric.

In this post, Warren transfers nonsense from her brain to her thumbs, and through the magic touch-screen slab to tell you that she’d be able to do something with a few billion more dollars that her and her colleagues haven’t been able to do with a multi-thousand-billion dollar annual budget for years and years.

What is the meaning of her post here? There is no meaning. It is meaningless. The intention? To stir emotions in anyone who isn’t aware of the obvious things I’ve written here. To manipulate and gain the support of sheep.

If you actually think revenue is the bottleneck for government output, you lack basic financial literacy and are being conned by con artists.

It now feels like something has *permanently* changed in this country.

If politicians and leftist MSM keep telling us to 'keep calm' and carry on.

If they keep telling us how we should feel.

If they keep calling normal Brits 'far-right' or say we're 'whipping up division' for speaking out.

If they keep showing us they care more about language than brutal savagery on our streets.

If they do not CLOSE THE BORDERS and START DEPORTING MILLIONS NOW!...

This country will tear itself apart.
It's a pressure cooker.

The Pittsburgh Pirates have now made it 22 Straight games scoring 4 runs or less.

They are SO CLOSE to beating the all time Major League Baseball record.

The league is 149 years old and this team has a chance to be infamous and a stain in baseball history.

What a special national championship season for Ohio State. So many great moments. Like when the fan base had a complete meltdown, gave up on the team, openly talked about firing their coach, and tried to outlaw flag-planting for three weeks in the middle of it.
