The border. The invasion. The wall. The truth.

Standing firm with President Trump on the border

Let’s get this straight.  An estimated 7,000 Central Americans, with thousands more expected, are claiming they are leaving their homelands due to dire conditions and are seeking asylum. Traveling in what are described as caravans, they have passed through Mexico, without asking to be allowed to stay there. It’s America they desire, as they are lured by our taxpayer funded goodies (shocking news video). American citizens are being fed a continual diet of deceit and contrivances about these folks often referred to simply as “migrants.” The accurate descriptive words “illegal aliens” are now considered pejoratives.

Their desire to be Americans is so great, the mostly young men brandish their own national flags and defiantly hurl rocks at the U.S. Border Patrol agents, boldly displaying their deep desire to enter our country and become acculturated. To gain access, they are now storming the border en masse. Criminals have been found among these sterling folks.

Assimilation is not their goal, nor is asylum, or they would have asked for it when entering Mexico. Overrunning Tijuana, creating havoc and skyrocketing costs to sustain them there, the Mexicans who live in the city are marching in the streets protesting the Central American invaders who are funded by activist organizations and globalist billionaire George Soros. He has long supported Chicago-based La Familia Latina Unita. (Bill O’Reilly video.)

Yet when President Trump declares he will permanently shut down the border if the human avalanche continues across our border, he is derided as lacking compassion.

The political component is all too clear. Radical Democrats want to ensure a borderless society and a permanent leftist voting bloc. The leftwing media vilifies President Trump, and the soon-to-be-installed Democrat House majority is chomping at the bit to bring him down.

The rest of us, those who comprehend the ugly realities, are all too aware that among the left and at universities across our nation, celebrating illegals is the new chic craze. Even following the senseless murder of Kate Steinle shot while walking along the San Francisco pier with her father, the word “deportation” is never uttered, although the Mexican national shooter with a criminal history was previously deported five times. He was acquitted in the murder trial. And across the bay in Oakland, the Democrat mayor has been cheered for warning illegals in advance of ICE raids.

We live in a time when there are no penalties for lawlessness and schools indoctrinate our students to the point where elderly Socialist Bernie Sanders was a big 2016 hit with millennials who lack historical knowledge of its failed regimes. Devoid of understanding, they prefer socialism to capitalism. (Set aside time for this instructive video.) Businessman President Trump deserves our support for his efforts to keep American safe and in the capitalistic realm.

Tijuana Mexico yells “Uncle!” as invaders create havoc

Tijuana seeks international help to deal with gravity of invasion crisis

With its hypocrisy on full display, the Mexican border town of Tijuana, abutting San Diego, California, is reacting wildly to the thousands of Central Americans jamming its streets and overloading its facilities.

Tijuana Mayor Juan Manuel Gastelum has gone so far as to declare an international humanitarian crisis over the arrival of an estimated 7,000 supposed “asylum seekers” traveling in  caravans.

Their claims of asylum are clearly false, since they are not seeking safety in Mexico from what they contend are intolerable conditions in their native countries abutting Mexico.

Our not-so-neighborly southern neighbor colluded in allowing them to use its land as a passage to invade the United States. But when President Trump refused to grant border access to the human stampede, the result became untenable for Mexico.

During a Thanksgiving Day press conference Mayor Gastelum solicited help from the United Nations and other international groups to assist Tijuana deal with the mass of invaders he has called an “avalanche,” as he accused the Mexican federal government of neglecting their responsibilities to deal with the unwanted hordes of humanity.

“They have categorically omitted and not complied with their legal obligations,” he said. “So we’re now asking them and international humanitarian aid groups to bring in and carry out humanitarian assistance,” declared Gastelum. He previously said, “Human rights should be reserved for righteous humans,” clearly excluding those he derisively described as a “horde.”

Now that the shoe is on the other foot, Mayor Gastelum appears to “get it.” Native Tijuana residents have stormed their streets marching against the costly Central American invaders flooding their town, taking needed resources from the locals, who also fear increased criminality from the violent MS-13, territorial drug gangsters among the mostly young male invaders and losing jobs to those willing to work cheaper. 

If those concerns sound familiar, the best indicator of their validity is that Gastelum was recently seen wearing a red baseball cap emblazoned with, “Make Tijuana Great Again,” emulating President Trump’s popular election motto.

Tijuana Mayor Juan Manuel Gastelum finally “gets it.”

Ducey still appeasing educrats with Dem ABOR app’t

After backtracking on his pledge not to reward Arizona’s striking #REDS for ED public school teachers who disregarded their contractual agreements as they abandoned over 840,000  students for a week, Gov. Doug Ducey caved in to their demands for a 20% salary increase for their part-time jobs. His acquiescence emboldened the unionists further as they wielded their new-found influence in the recent Nov. 6, election, turning previously red Arizona a deep purple.

Now easily reelected to his final term as governor by his teacher comrades, Ducey with no further constraints, has appointed Democrat Fred DuVal, his former 2014 gubernatorial rival, to the Arizona Board of Regents. This is the second, non-consecutive, term for retread DuVal, who was initially appointed by Janet Napolitano. His liberal bona fides are exactly what would be expected. During his previous tenure he was a reliable university tuition hike advocate. DuVal was previously an aide to Democrat Gov. Bruce Babbitt and worked as Bill Clinton’s White House Deputy Director of Intergovernmental Affairs.

This is the enthusiastic welcome leftist DuVal received from the Board of Regents. Not to be outdone, Ducey heaped even more praise (via linked press release) on his former foe, then derided as an “arrogant Washington insider and career influence peddler.” It’s easy to be gracious after emerging victorious 53.4% to 41.6% but do you have to be foolish?  Are there no worthy Republicans to appoint to the Arizona Board of Regents?

DuVal is a darling of the educrats, whose gratitude for their taxpayer-funded raise was demonstrated by a colossal slap in the face to Arizona parents. With the support of the increasingly radical, Hillary-endorsing Arizona Republic newspaper, public school teachers led the vote against Prop. 305, which would have expanded eligibility for education empowerment scholarship accounts. The liberal educrats organized to deny parental choice in education. They also united to elect leftist Democrat Kathy Hoffman as Superintendent of Public Instruction. Her background? She was a preschool teacher for less than two years and a school speech therapist for five. Her sole qualification that mattered to them is a “D” after her name.

AZ Nov. 2018 Election: Snafus persist, lawsuit filed

Extreme liberal partisan Adrian Fontes, who squeaked into office by a single percentage point, now oversees Maricopa County Elections

With votes still being counted days after Tuesday’s election, are upsets in the works? In the latest update from the Secretary of State’s Office, Arizona’s U.S. Senate seat, that appeared to be won by Republican Martha McSally is in limbo as far left radical Kyrsten Sinema, posing as an “independent” has now mysteriously surged ahead by 9,163 votes — 49.08% to McSally’s 48.61%.

In the election for Superintendent of Public Instruction, Republican Frank Riggs has fallen behind Democrat Kathy Hoffman — 49.5% – 50.5%. Thank the #Reds for Ed teachers who abandoned Arizona’s 800,000 students for a week during their union organized strike.  Obviously giving in to their 20% salary increase demands didn’t placate them.  With the support of the leftist, Hillary Clinton-endorsing Arizona Republic newspaper, public school teachers also led the vote against Prop. 305, which would have expanded eligibility for education empowerment scholarship accounts. The educrats organized to deny parental choice in education.

Current Secretary of State, Michele Reagan, who lost in the Primary to Steve Gaynor, (both are Republicans) advises 100% of the precincts have reported, raising the question where are the discrepancies arising from? And who is the final arbiter deciding when the numbers have all been tabulated?  Does extreme partisan Adrian Fontes have an overseer?  Gaynor leads Democrat Katie Hobbs by nearly 20,000 votes in a tight 50.5% to 49.5 % race.

Our votes are our voice. These results show with laser beam clarity how crucial it is to be an informed voter.

Democrat Adrian Fontes was elected as Maricopa County Recorder after longtime Republican Recorder Helen Purcell presided over a tumultuous election day after years of flawless handling of the monumental job. Adhering to the far-left party line, he ran on the contrivance of halting “voter suppression.”

A joint lawsuit by the Republican Parties in the counties of Maricopa, Apache, Navajo and Yuma has been filed challenging the signature verification process on mail-in ballots dropped off at polling places on Election Day, rather than being mailed in. Nearly a half million such ballots are still being counted statewide. Another court hearing is set in Maricopa County Superior Court mid-afternoon today.

We can’t allow ourselves to lose sight of who Adrian Fontes actually is. For some background on Fontes, we direct our readers to these posts:

Ann Coulter clarifies the 14th amendment

Navigating through the maze of “birthright citizenship” can be a daunting task.                                                                                         

This superb analysis clarifying the issue is titled, “The true history of millstone babies.” Author Ann Coulter boldly asserts, “If you’d like to be the smartest person at your next cocktail party by knowing the truth about the 14th Amendment, this is the column for you!”

A political commentator, syndicated columnist and author of numerous best selling books, Coulter is also a lawyer — evidenced by the well researched legal facts in her enlightening article on this timely subject.

Exemplifying the calamitous state of our border crisis, are the thousands of Central American invaders from Guatemala, Honduras, and El Salvador, who were facilitated by conduit Mexico. The current wave of Guatemalans are moving ever closer to breaching our southern border.

President Trump has correctly responded by deploying 15,000 troops, though they are largely symbolic. He needs to follow that action by cutting off all foreign aid (move cursor over country) to the nations that are facilitating this onslaught. Money bridges any language gap. Eliminating our taxpayer-funded generosity will be understood even by illiterates and would definitely be the motivating factor their governments need.

Arizonans know all too well, the wall must be completed. The money we save could be better directed to this needed construction.

AZ Republic despises parental choice in education

Conservatives who comprehend the need for parental choice in education are voting YES on 305

When the Hillary-endorsing Arizona Republic turns loose all of its resources on a single topic, it’s clear the newspaper is seeking to unduly influence what remains of its flagging, mostly Medicare eligible readership. Coordinated Page One reports, assenting columnists and editorials are the modus operandi for hammering home a point.

Apart from endorsing mostly liberals in the upcoming election, the topic of educational choice is contemptuously referred to as “vouchers.” The newspaper has also turned its wrath on Charter Schools, and their owners.

A front-page, above-the-fold October 5, headline blasted, “Arizonans confused by voucher measure.” To support its flawed contention, the editorial posing as a news report, substantiates it’s claim with this gem:

“Every Democrat in the Legislature opposed the 2017 expansion that Prop. 305 would keep in place or repeal. But 51 percent of Democratic voters surveyed said they would vote yes in support of the expansion.”

In the section of the voter guide where individuals and special interests pay to express their views on ballot propositions, ten full pages are filled with those who benefit from the current failed system, urging a no vote on Prop. 305.  Don’t be fooled. Read about Empowerment Scholarship Accounts here.

Parents who want the best possible education for their children, were first-hand witnesses to the educrat establishment’s disregard for the public school students in their charge as they gave the back of their hands to their contractual agreements, abandoning students for a week, demanding a 20 percent salary increase for their part time jobs. The thousands of marching unionist teachers* mindlessly followed their favored leader Noah Karvelis, 24-year-old, hip-hop music teacher, and self-identified Socialist.

Passage of ballot propositions — 301 in 2000 increasing the state sales tax and 123 in 2016 a grab from the state land trust — guaranteed more money for education, which apparently is never enough. School districts routinely hold budget overrides and bond elections to “get more money into the classroom” —- eduspeak for bolstering teacher’s salaries. A major premise of passing the Arizona Lottery in 1980 was that money from ticket sales would fund schools.

U.S. News and World Report recently put out its list of the Best Charter High School in the Nation. Arizona topped the list with seven schools.

Red tide or blue wave? Who’s $$ fund leftists?

Vote Republican for our future

Following Friday’s exhilarating rally drawing thousands to Mesa to cheer President Donald J. Trump, it’s natural to regard ourselves as sensible, fact-based and cogent thinkers. But the truth remains, most of us — in addition to our day jobs and families — are too occupied sorting through the national news to view all of the local and statewide candidates and crucial ballot propositions analytically. As an aid some might be tempted to turn to a benign sounding site such as “Before the Ballot,” in a quest for neutrality. It was only after checking further using the “paid for by” information, that we found this mammoth reveal on the Center for Responsive Politics. Check out the names on the PAC donor list.

What would move the Florida Democrat Party to give generous donations to “Before the Ballot,” in conjunction with labor and municipal unions, D.C.-based PACs, “Best of the Left” iHeart Radio, left-wing “philanthropists,” mega companies such as PepsiCo — bankrolled by hedge fund billionaires Donald Sussman and George Soros, who each contributed $millions — just to help you fill out your ballot?  Leftist Sussman, who gave $21 million to the pro-Clinton Super PAC, Priorities USA, is no more benevolent than Socialist Soros, (pictured here with his pals John McCain and Hillary) who has been working through his mega-network of organizations to undermine our president and the entire nation while striving to overhaul the U.S. Justice system in his radical image.

Believe either of them simply want to assist you, and there’s a proverbial bridge waiting for you to buy.

Vote Republican and keep the Trump momentum going. This list has not been updated to reflect the two most recent U.S. Supreme Court Justices, Neil Gorsuch and Brett Kavanaugh, nominated by President Trump. He and his staff have been too busy working to “Keep America Great.”
