NewsMachete: Bush and Trump accuse each other of perverted acts of love - "So I think Trump wins this round. Waiting in the wings are Bush's vast army of orcs, waiting massed behind the Black Gate of Mordor waiting to take on the Tea Party Hobbits, as the Wall Street Journal called them. The word on the street is that 'D Day' (D for Donald?) is going to be sometime after Labor Day"

Isn't Donald Trump great? I mean, I still don't fully trust him, but I simply love how he is making Jeb Bush squirm. Trump produced a short web ad juxtaposing Bush's famous "illegal immigration is an act of love" speech with photos of illegal alien killers.

Perhaps it's not a totally fair comparison, since Bush certainly was speaking generally and probably would not include murderers in his acts of love-making. But, on the other hand, perhaps it's a mostly fair comparison, since Bush seems to paint a broad brush about the supposed benefits of illegal aliens but never the costs. Have you ever heard Bush to say that any illegal alien ever did anything wrong, or is less than totally virtuous? I haven't. What the ad is doing is showing, legitimately I think, that Bush is more sympathetic to illegals than he is to American citizens.

But Jeb is fighting back! Bush says that Trump is soft on crime because he supported liberal politicians. Witness Trump's "act of love" towards Nancy Pelosi: ...

RR Watch - Ann Corcoran: Learn more about refugee resettlement in your state - "70,000 refugee target that Obama set last year"

For new readers……

Revolving door and one big happy family! This is Bob Carey, the new director of the ORR. He was previously a VP at the International Rescue Committee. And, what a coincidence, over at the State Department, the Asst. Secretary of State for PRM, Anne Richard, was also a VP at the International Rescue Committee. Gee! Do you think federal contractor, the IRC headed by Brit David Miliband, might have a bit of an inside track to the federal agencies that feed them?
The US Refugee Resettlement Program is administered by two different agencies of the federal government.  The US State Department admits refugees and contracts with the nine major federal resettlement contractors (they call them VOLAGS short for Voluntary Agencies which they definitely are not!) to distribute them.
The Office of Refugee Resettlement (ORR) in the Dept. of Health and Human  Services is responsible for making sure that myriad grants get out to the contractors and their subcontractors and to manage much of the other day-to-day operation being dictated from Washington.
The ORR has produced a handy map.  When you click on your state, contact information pops up for the bureaucrats who are responsible in your state.
You will see some states are Wilson-Fish states which means they are run pretty much with no state government involvement.  Go here to learn more about Wilson-Fish.
To find which federal resettlement subcontractors have offices near you, go here.
Regarding my reference to David Miliband in the photo caption—Miliband is the first resettlement contractor head honcho to push for Obama to admit 65,000 Syrians before his term ends.
September is an important month in the resettlement process, first because the feds and their contractors are scrambling to bring in as many refugees as possible in hopes of meeting the 70,000 refugee target that Obama set last year.
And, because Obama, by the end of September, will submit his Annual Determination Letter (this one for 2015) to Congress (where it has been rubber-stamped each year) in which he will lay out the goal for FY2016 which begins on October 1.  Watch for a huge jump in the number of Syrians to be admitted and distributed to your towns in the coming fiscal year.
We will be watching to see if any Member of Congress or US Senator says anything about Obama’s picks for 2016.

VDare - James Kirkpatrick - Donald Trump: Last Chance For Conservatism–Or First Sign Of White Identity Politics? Maybe Both - "the underlying motivation for the hostility against Trump is a gut hostility towards his (white) supporters."

Trump unstumped: The Donald now has the largest lead of any Republican this election cycle, according to a recent poll showing the real estate developer is beating his nearest competitor (Ben Carson) by sixteen points [Trump lead grows; Clinton slips: poll, AFP, August 27, 2015]. He has displaced Scott Walker to take the lead in Iowa and, perhaps even more telling, has reversed his unfavorability ratings there in an unprecedented way. [This Iowa poll shows just how amazing Donald Trump’s rise has been, by Chris Cillizza, Washington Post, August 30, 2015]. 

 The Beltway Right is unleashing a desperate attack against him, warning that he “is antithetical to the modern conservative movement” (true!) [The anti-Trump angst grows, by Jennifer Rubin, Washington Post, August 30, 2015].

But the truth is that Trump represents a last chance for“conservatism” to remain relevant in American politics. And the borderline hysterical reaction against him reveals the embarrassing fact that political victory, or even influence, is less important to many Conservatism Inc. types than being seen as respectable in the eyes of elite liberal opinion.
Indeed, the problem with Trump seems to be that he may actually serve the interests of the Republican base—something deemed unacceptable inside the Beltway. ...

RR Watch - Ann Corcoran: ‘Germany loves refugees’ say demonstrators - Polls show public opinion is largely behind Merkel - 1-5k protesters really pretty pathetic with entire Globalist Establishment behind them. --tma

……but the Dutch and the Finns are not so thrilled.  My suggestion: send them all to Germany where we are told 60% of Germans welcome the migrants.

Invasion of Europe news…..

From The Guardian:
Dresden demo

Demonstrators in Dresden on Saturday—come on in! Germany is rich! Photo: The Guardian
Thousands of people took to the streets of the German city of Dresden on Saturday to send a message of welcome to refugees after a string of violent anti-migrant protests in the region.
Led by protesters holding a huge banner that read “Prevent the pogroms of tomorrow today”, the crowds marched peacefully through the eastern city under the watch of police in riot gear.
“Say it loud, say it clear, refugees are welcome here,” they chanted.
Police said 1,000 people took part in the protest, which was called by the Anti-Nazi Alliance, while organisers put the numbers at 5,000.
[….]
Public opinion is largely behind her [Chancellor Angela Merkel–ed] with 60% of Germans polled by public broadcaster ZDF saying that Europe’s biggest economy is capable of hosting the asylum seekers.
Maybe Merkel isn’t mad, maybe a majority of Germans are!
Now see what is happening in the Netherlands, here and in Finland here.  Load up the buses and send them to Germany!
BTW, the EU has called an emergency meeting for mid-September to discuss the migrant crisis, here. ...

American Thinker - Jared Peterson: Trump and the Fate of the GOP - "Last week George Will joined David Harsanyi in pouring oceans of vitriol and contempt on Donald Trump and his supporters."

Image result for george will

Last week George Will joined David Harsanyi in pouring oceans of vitriol and contempt on Donald Trump and his supporters. Will's dismissal of Trump and those who cheer him on -- dripping arrogance and anger -- seems to be a spreading habit among conservative commentators.  I concede, though, few if any writers ever reach Will's level of sneering contempt, superiority and condescension.

This treatment of the Trump phenomenon, by both Republican Party leaders and many conservative commentators, bodes ill for the Party nominee's chances in 2016. A repeat of the presidential elections of 1912 and 1992 is becoming ever more plausible, whether or not a defeated Trump runs a third party campaign.

Will's approach is no way to deal with a political phenomenon that is a direct outgrowth of deep and intense issue disaffection by voters who are among the Republican Party's most dependable. In a two-party -- hence coalition-dependent -- democracy, it's a basic truth that only the politically suicidal insult and belittle a large segment of their Party's most reliable supporters.

John McCain (Trump’s supporters are “crazies"), a man whose distinguishing political trait is a singular lack of judgment, was only providing another example of his well-known cognitive defect. George Will has no excuse. ...

RR Watch - Ann Corcoran: Twin Falls, ID: Article tells us why you must demand answers BEFORE refugees begin arriving - Twin Falls to become Triplet Falls, as in fall of the West into an angry Muslim swarm? --tma

….of course the trick will be trying to figure that out!
Twin Falls, Idaho has developed a very active and competent ‘Pocket of Resistance’ in spite of the local media’s effort to denigrate opponents of the UN/US State Department plan to further seed the community with third world refugees.  This round of controversy began in earnest back in April when the local resettlement contractor bragged to the media that Syrian (mostly Muslim) refugees were coming to Idaho.

You will have to read the whole article from Friday, here at MagicValley.com for details on the latest news.  I can’t post much of it or the editor will have his lawyerssend me another letter, but there is one important thing I want you to see.
First, here are the opening paragraphs:
TWIN FALLS • A refugee center in Twin Falls isn’t likely to go away even if the College of Southern Idaho stops sponsoring its program, officials say.
A local group — the Committee to End the CSI Refugee Center — wants a measure to shutter the center on ballots by May, says the group’s leader, Rick Martin, a widely known right-wing activist [LOL! bias alert!—ed]. They also want to recruit candidates to run for the college’s board of trustees in November 2016 with the goal of phasing out the center.
The group submitted its measure this week to the Twin Falls County Attorney, a preliminary step before the group can begin gathering signatures to get it on the ballot.

Then this!  Once they get a program up and running in your town, it becomes almost impossible to shutter it later because they are in the process of admitting family members of the first group they brought in.  The contractors are usually gleeful to shove that bit of news into critics faces.

Jessica Lilley, a program officer with the U.S. Committee for Refugees and Immigrants [USCRI—ed], addressed the topic Tuesday during a meeting with the Magic Valley Refugee Advocates, a group formed this summer to support the local program.
“You already have a community of refugees here” with family members still oversees, she said, and the U.S. Department of State will want an agency in Twin Falls to fill the gap as the relatives of refugees resettle in the United States.
She goes on to threaten that they will just drop them off in neighboring towns, but they will end up in Twin Falls anyway.

NewsMachete: Hispanic group cancels contract on Donald Trump - Irony: Exclusively Hispanic group hilariously proclaims it "embraces ethnic diversity." - Can't wait to hear what Trump has to say. That he happily kept their deposit, salsa and chips? --tma






A Hispanic builders association has canceled a meeting to be held at a Trump owned resort.

In a stinging denunciation of Donald Trump, the nation’s largest Hispanic construction trade group, the Latin Builders Association, announced Friday that it would cancel its gala at his resort in Doral due to his “recent pattern of bigoted, sexist and ignorant verbal assaults on immigrants, women and veterans.”

Donald Trump has made no verbal assaults on immigrants. He has made true observations about illegal aliens. Illegal aliens are not immigrants. To conflate the two is ignorance, the same ignorance they are accusing Trump of. This is as confusing as someone taking pot calling a kettle black.

And since when has the Latin Builders Association ever spoken up for women or veterans? Probably never. Why is there a "Latin Builders Association" in the first place? Is there a Latin way of building a house? Is there such a thing as Spanish drywall? Do some developers look for a Hispanic builder because they don't want to hire a white one? Or do they proclaim themselves as Hispanic so they can get preferences in government contracts?

Tapanes Llahues said the group also believes “in the freedom of speech, freedom of the press and the rule of law” ...

If they embrace the rule of law, why do they apparently want the law ignored and for illegals to be given amnesty? If they believe in freedom of speech, why are they punishing Trump for exercising his? ...
