Another Statist Immigration “Solution”

by
In a New York Times op-ed today, Mexican businessman Ricardo B. Salinas is endorsing what he calls a "humane" alternative to President Trump’s cruel and brutal enforcement of America’s system of immigration controls: a “Marshall Plan” for Latin America! He says that it is the “right way” to solve America’s decades-long, ongoing, never-ending immigration crisis. According to Salinas, if the U.S. government will just use the IRS to plunder and loot the American people even more than it already is doing so, the U.S. government will be able to send hundreds of millions of dollars to Latin American regimes, which will use the money to bring economic vitality to their countries, which will cause Latin Americans to stay home instead of coming to the United States for jobs. Voila! Immigration crisis over!  No more death, suffering, and immigration police state along the border. Just like that! Why, that’s just ingenious!

Trump Reminds Us that America Is a Military Nation

Critics say that it was unseemly for the president to be showing off the federal government’s military prowess on Independence Day. Some said it conjured up images of the Soviet Union, when that communist regime would showcase its tanks and military hardware in parades in Moscow's Red Square. But the fact is that America is a military nation.

His critics don’t have any problem with that. They just don’t want Trump to highlight it. Of course, it wasn’t always that way. In extolling America’s position as a military nation, Trump left out something important in his talk: America did not ...

The Dysfunctional Relationship between Trump and Kim

by
The relationship between President Trump and North Korean leader Kim Jong-un has got to rank among the most dysfunctional relationships in history. Recall the big crisis with North Korea that Trump ignited soon after coming into office, a crisis that threw his supporters, his opponents, and the mainstream press into a classic tizzy. Trump’s thesis was that North Korea posed a grave threat to U.S. "national security" (whatever that term means) simply by virtue of North Korea’s possession of nuclear weapons. Trump demanded that Kim eliminate his nukes or else face the fire of a U.S. carpet-bombing nuclear attack on his country, one that would make the U.S. nuclear attacks on Japan look like child’s play. Kim knew, however, that if he dismantled his nuclear weapons, North Korea would be subject to a U.S. regime-change operation, similar to the ones that the Pentagon and the CIA have initiated against Iraq, Cuba, Libya, Iran, Guatemala, Afghanistan, and many other countries. Kim understood ...
