Who’s Up For A Roswell Reboot That Goes SJW On Illegal Immigration?

By William Teach October 14, 2017 – 7:36 am

The networks are already developing several shows regarding illegal aliens, obviously in a manner that supports and defends them. The CW is now jumping into the mix with a possible reboot to the short lived show Roswell, which was about some kids in Roswell, NM having romance with space aliens as stuff

(Bleeding Cool) As the series overview shows, the new Roswell will directly address the issue of immigration on two levels: the metaphorical sci-fi theme of “aliens-as-immigrants” that was present in the original series; and the very real issues surrounding the immigration debate and the impact it has on the children of undocumented immigrants:

The new, one-hour drama series follows the daughter of undocumented immigrants who reluctantly returns to her tourist-trap hometown of Roswell, New Mexico. There she discovers a shocking truth about her teenage crush who is now a police officer: he’s an alien who has kept his unearthly abilities hidden his entire life. She protects his secret as the two reconnect and begin to investigate his origins, but when a violent attack and long-standing government cover-up point to a greater alien presence on Earth, the politics of fear and hatred threaten to expose him and destroy their deepening romance.

The Mercury News puts it this way

What The CW has revealed about the plot so far is that the daughter of undocumented immigrants returns to Roswell and uncovers the truth about her teen crush, who has become a police officer. Turns out, he’s an alien who has successfully kept his special abilities hidden. She keeps his secret as the two work together to learn more about his origins and their romance rekindles, but everything is disrupted when a violent attack and a government cover-up unveil a greater alien presence on Earth. The two must fight to keep together and his secret safe.

Isn’t nice how the networks are trying to mainstream people who are unlawfully present in the United States? Perhaps they could tell us more on stories such as

Think Roswell, or the other network shows, will touch on these issues?

Trump Has Charted A Perilous Course On Iran Or Something

By William Teach October 14, 2017 – 7:09 am

Is anyone surprised that the American news media would seemingly take Iran’s side when it comes to Obama’s Iran deal? It shouldn’t, because they’re also taking Mr. Obama’s side along with being in full Trump Derangement Syndrome. The NY Times is super excited to slam Trump, rather than the extremists in Iran who are still hell bent on building a nuclear weapon, chant “death to America”, and want to wipe Israel off the map. In one “fact check“, in their zealous TDS they forget that Iran will not allow inspections of their military sites, where most nuclear research occurs. They’re thrilled that European leaders are slamming Trump.

This same is occurring all over the Left-o-news. Let’s move to the Washington Post Editorial Board

Trump has charted a perilious course on Iran

IN AN act of political vanity and geopolitical folly, President Trump has made one of the most serious national security challenges facing the United States, that of Iran, considerably worse. His announcement Friday that he would report to Congress that the Islamic republic is not meeting the terms of the 2015 multinational accord limiting its nuclear program flouted the reports of international inspectors, the unanimous counsel of his national security team and the appeals of key U.S. allies. His threat to terminate the agreement if Congress and America’s allies do not meet his demands for revisions could easily lead to Iran’s resumption of a race toward nuclear weapons — a dangerous course that the deal brokered by the Obama administration succeeded in arresting.

The nuclear accord is flawed, including sunset provisions that remove restrictions on Iranian nuclear activities beginning eight years from now. But Mr. Trump’s hyperbolic claim that the deal is “one of the worst and most one-sided transactions the United States has ever entered into” is belied by the fact that the regime has gone from being less than a year away from being able to produce a nuclear device, according to U.S. intelligence estimates, to having a fraction of the necessary materiel, and that under close international monitoring. The president’s contention that Iran is guilty of “multiple violations of the agreement” is belied by eight reports of the International Atomic Energy Agency as well as statements by his secretaries of state and defense and the chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff.

If there’s anything that shows that the deal should be renegotiated, it’s the sentence in bold, something which was known, but rarely put in print by any of the Obama supporting news outlets. All Obama did was kick the can down the road. Is the WPEB good with Iran building nuclear weapons in 8 years? Iran gets all the benefits. Ability to trade, getting all that cash from Obama, selling their oil, and so forth.

Mr. Trump promised additional action to address the non-nuclear threats posed by Iran, including its interventions in Iraq and Syria. The administration is justified in imposing sanctions on Iran’s Revolutionary Guard Corps. But it appears to have no clear plan to address Iran’s military entrenchment in Syria, which is threatening to touch off a new conflict with Israel. Rather than tackling those urgent challenges, Mr. Trump prefers to renounce the legacy of his political nemesis Barack Obama and thereby reopen the one front where Tehran is currently contained. North Korea will take note: The United States cannot be trusted to stick to any nuclear accord.

Except, the United States did not sign the accord, because it was structured, much like the Paris Climate Agreement, to avoid the federal body designated by the U.S. Constitution as the one to certify international deals. This is all spun in a manner to #resist Trump, to the point where US news outlets take Iran’s side.

NY Times Finally Let’s Us Know That The Obama Economy Stunk Like Durian Fruit

By William Teach October 13, 2017 – 5:26 pm

Have you ever smelled Durian fruit? Don’t. “It’s odor is best described as pig-shit, turpentine and onions, garnished with a gym sock. It can be smelled from yards away. Despite its great local popularity, the raw fruit is forbidden from some establishments such as hotels, subways and airports, including public transportation in Southeast Asia.”

https://twitter.com/WilliamTeach/status/918651202014937088

From the article

Since the first rumblings of the financial crisis, in 2007, people have comforted themselves by looking back to the Great Depression and thinking about how much worse things could be. It’s true, too. Our modern economic crisis has been far less severe than the Depression.

Yet our crisis isn’t over. By almost any measure — employment, income, net worth, total output — the economy is still suffering.

Of course, writer David Leonhardt avoids mentioning Obama, or assigning any blame for the terrible recovery, and attempts to point towards 2019 as being bad (and that Government should spend oodles of money, because that worked wonders, eh?), but, the basics are there: the Obama economy was terrible. Eight years of ineffective policies and massive debt really didn’t help.

Of course, if things are so so in 2019, they’ll simply blame Trump. We won’t hear the whole “inherited” meme.

Trump’s Views On Hotcoldwetdry Are Threatening Civilization Or Something

By William Teach October 13, 2017 – 10:27 am

Threatening civilization!!!!! It’s always time for a bit of climahysteria

Trump’s views on climate change are threatening human civilization (Your letters)

To the Editor:

Over the past month we have seen unusually powerful and devastating hurricanes, extremely destructive forest fires and record-breaking heat waves. Closer to home, autumn has felt more like midsummer.

And not one of those can be proven to be caused by/linked to athropogenic climate change/global warming. Just like the very early snows in Montana are not proof that world hasn’t warmed, nor that the next Holocene cool period is on the way (it also doesn’t prove AGW, either). Does an almost 12 year dearth in landfalling major hurricanes disprove a warming Earth? How about a major reduction in landfalling minor hurricanes and tropical storms? No. But, the argument is not on warming, it’s on causation.

My daughter’s high school soccer team had two consecutive games canceled because temperatures topped 90 degrees in late September. We might be enjoying the bizarre summer weather here in Central New York, but climate change represents one of the greatest existential threats to human civilization.

Got that? The poor darlings were unable to deal with a little heat (like the do here in the South, and, places all over the world), so, utter doom.

However, President Donald Trump has chosen this time to follow up on his rejection of the Paris Climate Agreement by scrapping President Obama’s Clean Power Plan. He is also developing a plan for the energy grid that will subsidize coal, the dirtiest, most carbon-intensive fuel, thus undermining renewables like wind and solar. Trump and his right-wing allies are so invested in undoing every shred of Barack Obama’s legacy and in fighting a culture war to save a dying coal industry that they are willing to endanger the future of our nation, our children and our planet.

Los Angeles Looks To Further Decriminalize Street Vending To Shield Illegal Aliens From ICE

By William Teach October 13, 2017 – 7:08 am

It’s an interesting prospect. Leftists have long pushed to require licenses for everything, and like to punish those without. Some make sense, others don’t. If you want to sell cars, you need a license. You don’t do anything for it, just pay a fee. Do not have to pass a test or demonstrate anything. Anyhow, if you want to do it, they want to require a license for it. This is how we end up with kids having their lemonade stands shut down by law enforcement. But, one would think that requiring a license for street vendors, at least those selling food, would be a good idea, right? We can agree that there should be some standards when we’re talking about something that can make people sick and even kill them, right?

(The Root) Walk outside a Hollywood, Calif., nightclub on any given night of the week and you are bound to come across a street vendor selling delicious-smelling hot dogs and sausages smothered in peppers and onions. The familiar tinkling of a bell attached to the end of a cart as it makes its way down your street lets you know the elote man is on the block. The kind hombre in the cowboy hat walking past the baseball diamonds in the park, pushing a freezer chest on wheels, will happily sell you your favorite ice cream treat for no more than a dollar or two.

Street vendors are a common sight in Los Angeles. For many immigrants, it is a way to make an honest living, but it also exposes them to the risks of being arrested and possibly detained and deported by U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement agents. While the city decriminalized street vending on sidewalks in February 2017, that change did not apply to vendors who operate in the city’s parks. A motion filed by City Council members on Tuesday seeks to rectify that, NBC reports.

Council members Jose Huizar and Mitch O’Farrell introduced the motion that would direct city staff to remove criminal misdemeanor charges for vending in parks and recommend other penalties that would compel compliance without exposing vendors to the threat of a criminal penalty.

What’s the point of this?

“In February, the Los Angeles City Council voted to decriminalize street vending in order to keep our mostly immigrant vendors out of the overreaching aggressive arms of our federal government looking to target otherwise law-abiding immigrants for deportation,” Huizar told NBC. “This motion and another I co-introduced last week help us maintain a consistent stance against the federal government and, more importantly, in support of our immigrant community.”

That’s right, it’s to shield illegal aliens from coming to the attention of Immigration and Customs Enforcement when they are arrested or enter the legal justice system in some method. Thankfully, zoot suits are still illegal in Los Angeles city.

Trump To Now End Ocare Cost-Sharing Subsidies, As Were Never Authorized By Congress

By William Teach October 13, 2017 – 6:51 am

As you can imagine, this has sent Obamacare supporters (who mostly do not use Ocare themselves) into a tizzy. Moonbat Level 10. Given them the vapors

(Politico) President Donald Trump plans to cut off subsidy payments to insurers selling Obamacare coverage in his most aggressive move yet to undermine the health care law, according to two sources close to the discussions.

The subsidies, which are worth an estimated $7 billion this year and are paid out in monthly installments, may stop almost immediately since Congress hasn’t appropriated funding for the program.

The decision, which leaked out only hours after Trump signed an executive order calling for new regulations to encourage cheap, loosely regulated health plans – delivered a double whammy to Obamacare after months of failed GOP efforts to repeal the law. With open enrollment for the 2018 plan year set to launch in two weeks, the moves seem aimed at dismantling the law through executive actions.

Press Secretary Sarah Huckabee Sanders confirmed the decision in a statement emailed to reporters at 10:47 p.m. Thursday.

“Based on guidance from the Department of Justice, the Department of Health and Human Services has concluded that there is no appropriation for cost-sharing reduction payments to insurance companies under Obamacare,” she said. “In light of this analysis, the Government cannot lawfully make the cost-sharing reduction payments. …The bailout of insurance companies through these unlawful payments is yet another example of how the previous administration abused taxpayer dollars and skirted the law to prop up a broken system.”

Congress has never appropriated the money for the cost-sharing subsidies (under Section 1402), otherwise known as insurance company bailouts due to the implementation of a law that doesn’t Understand How Insurance Works, hence, any payments are illegal. Furthermore, a judge agreed that the payments were unConstitutional.

Scrapping the subsidy payments is likely to jolt already fragile Obamacare markets — although the impact may be less severe than it would have been a few months back.

If the Ocare markets are so fragile, that should tell us that this was a terrible law, one which set up a bad system, should it not?

There’s even a suggestion that insurers will sue Trump over this. That’ll be tossed quickly, because there is no statutory funding authorized by Congressional budgets to pay these out.

As Dr. Marc Siegel just said on TV as I write this, insurers stay in Ocare when it benefits them, and leave when they don’t. But consumers are trapped by this system.

Bummer: Trump’s Environment Plan Fails To Mention ‘Climate Change’

By William Teach October 12, 2017 – 4:28 pm

The Warmists at the UK Independent seem rather surprised by this development. Were they paying attention since Trump started running?

Trump’s environmental plan doesn’t mention climate change

The Environmental Protection Agency’s strategic plan does not contain the phrase “climate change.”

The federal agency’s draft four-year plan is detailed in a 38-page report that was released late last week.

Neither “carbon dioxide” or “greenhouse gas emissions” are mentioned in the document either published by the EPA, CNN reported.

EPA spokesperson Liz Bowman told the news outlet that “providing more Americans with access to clean air, land, and water” was the focus of the agency.

However, it is a marked difference from the Obama administration’s EPA plan.

That 80-page document, written in 2014 under then-EPA administrator Gina McCarthy, included 40 mentions of the phrase “climate change” and one of the key sections was titled ““Addressing Climate Change and Improving Air Quality.”

Reading through the new draft, it is focused more on true environmental issues, divorcing them from the idiocy of ‘climate change’, where in previous years they were all subsumed and secondary to the beliefs of the Cult of Climastrology.

The screed from the Warmist Independent even includes this bit of mule fritters

It’s simply steam. Warmists think it’s pure carbon pollution “spewing.” It’s a cult.

Accused Killer Is An Obama Dreamer

By William Teach October 12, 2017 – 11:03 am

How many times will we have to read about the criminality of all these Dreamers?

(Breitbart) An illegal alien accused of murdering a teenage girl in Greenville County, South Carolina, was shielded from deportation as he was a beneficiary of the Obama-created DACA amnesty program.

Daniel De Jesus Rangel Sherrer, 19, was one of the nearly 800,000 illegal aliens shielded from deportation and given a work permit under the Deferred Action for Childhood Arrivals (DACA) program, U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services (USCIS) confirmed to Breitbart Texas.

Sherrer, as Breitbart News reported, was charged in connection with the murder of 18-year-old Diana Martinez-Gonzalez after she was found shot to death in a wooded area in the town of Easley, South Carolina.

During a press conference, Master Deputy Ryan Flood said the DACA recipient confessed to a deputy about his alleged murder of Martinez-Gonzalez, a high school student.

This is who Obama and the Democrats support.

Meanwhile in Charlotte

Norma Contreras dutifully reported Sept. 21 to Charlotte’s office of U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement, which ICE required the undocumented immigrant to do as she fought to stay in the U.S.

Contreras’ minister husband and her three children, a Charlotte family for 17 years, haven’t seen her since. Contreras is being held in Georgia awaiting deportation to her native Honduras.

That a woman with a work permit, clean criminal record and community support could be uprooted without warning is among the starkest examples of changes to federal immigration policy under President Donald Trump.

Clean criminal record. Except for being illegally present in the United States. ICE notes that she has fought the good fight in court, and the courts have consistently found against her, because, she’s illegally present. We’ll get back to that in a minute. First, look how supporters portray her

Contreras’ supporters have said she’s been a model citizen, even if she didn’t have the papers making her one. Her husband and children said her deportation would shatter their family.

She doesn’t have the papers because she’s not a citizen, and would actually be considered a felon

Contreras first came to the U.S. in 1999 to escape gang violence in Honduras but was turned back at the Mexican border. In 2001 she returned, this time with two children. She was deported in 2009 but came back the same year. In 2010, ICE released her under a renewable order of supervision.

Coming back after being deported is a felony as an alien absconder. She was told she could be deported at any time. There are penalties for unlawful activity.
