Fast Fact: As GA Sec. of State in 2016, Brian Kemp spent tax dollars to produce “how to” register and vote video tutorials for non-English speakers

November 8, 2022 By D.A. King

As SoS in 2016, Republican Brian Kemp spent   $48,119.00 on foreign language video tutorials for non-English speakers on how to register and vote in GA.

 

 

In 2016, then Sec. of State Brian Kemp used tax dollars to produce “how to” video tutorials on registering to vote and voting in Georgia. The corporate-funded open borders lobby was ecstatic.

We have located the original media release that was deleted after we started asking questions.

We remind all concerned that to vote legally in Georgia, one must be a U.S. citizen and that the naturalization process involves passing an English proficiency test in which the future voter must demonstrate an understanding of the English language including the ability to read, write, and speak basic English. The USCIS naturalization information page is here.

The Kemp foreign language voter videos were taken down and aren’t available on the “WayBack Machine” website, but we were able to save one which can be watched from a post on the original Dustin Inman Society website.

We post that recovered video below. We advise you watch all the way to the end. This information was originally posted on the original Dustin Inman Society website in October, 2016.

Fast Fact: Enough fentanyl to kill every American seized at southern border in July

August 20, 2022 By D.A. King

The U.S. Border Patrol says a drug-sniffing dog helped capture a suspect accused of smuggling 250 pounds of fentanyl worth more than $3 million early Monday, July 18, 2022. (Image: Courtesy of the U.S. Border Patrol)

 

Joe Biden’s New America

  • “Just 2 milligrams of fentanyl is considered enough to kill. Given the drug’s lethality, July’s seizures would be enough to slay nearly 470 million people and amount to nearly 1½ doses for every American.”
  • “This is only the fentanyl that is being seized as the vast majority is getting through undetected, according to the DEA,”…

July border stunner: Enough fentanyl to kill every American

Washington Times

August 16, 2022

“Fentanyl is surging across the southern border at an astronomical rate, with July’s rate of seizures shattering the previous record and tripling June’s rate, according to Homeland Security Department statistics released this week.

The drugs are yet another vulnerability along a U.S.-Mexico boundary plagued by record levels of human smuggling, including 10 more terrorism suspects whom the Border Patrol nabbed in July alone.

Customs and Border Protection reported seizing 2,071 pounds of fentanyl coming in from Mexico in July. That was 60% more than the previous record, set in April, and more than triple the 640 pounds nabbed in June.

Fast Fact: One-third of all foreign students in the US are from Communist China.

July 28, 2022 By D.A. King

Science, Technology, Espionage, and Math Are STEM students from the People’s Republic of China jeopardizing our economic and national security?

Center for Immigration Studies

By George Fishman on July 25, 2022

One-third of all foreign students in the US are from China. In many cases vetting is not effective as students are only approached for intelligence-gathering purposes by the PRC after arriving in the U.S. or after returning to China.

From the Washington-based Center for Immigration Studies.

Executive Summary

The People’s Republic of China under Xi Jinping believes that war with the United States is inevitable. Depending on the outcome of Russia’s invasion of Ukraine, the risk of armed conflict might come sooner rather than later. A Russian victory might entice the PRC to invade Taiwan, which could very well draw in U.S. troops.

The Chinese Communist Party is intently focused on modernizing its military to close the gap between U.S. and Chinese military power, embracing critical and emerging technologies to serve as “assassin’s mace” or “silver bullet” technologies. A RAND Corporation analyst has testified that should it succeed:

[This would] represent perhaps the most destabilizing geostrategic development of the 21st century. [S]teep advances in the [People’s Liberation Army’s] PLA’s conventional capabilities … could, for the first time in modern history, pit the United States against a militarily superior adversary.

At the same time, the number of students from the PRC at U.S. universities has skyrocketed in recent years to 317,299, representing more than one-third of all foreign students. As recently as 2008/09, they accounted for only 14.6 percent of all foreign students, in 1994/95 only 8.7 percent, and in 1984/85 only 3.0 percent.

FBI Director Christopher Wray has stated that:

[N]o country poses a broader, more severe intelligence collection threat than China. China has pioneered a societal approach to stealing innovation any way it can [including] … through graduate students and researchers. … Nation-state actors are … targeting academia — including professors, research scientists, and graduate students [seeking] our cutting-edge research, our advanced technology, and our world-class equipment and expertise.

In 2018, the Department of Justice set up the “China Initiative” to deal with these threats. The Biden administration has shut it down.

Given the paucity of effective mechanisms to prevent students from the PRC once in the U.S. from engaging in espionage and otherwise bringing the fruits of our scientific research back home, it may be time to consider barring the entry of all students from the PRC, or at least those who will be studying in STEM or other fields likely to give them access to information and research of value to the PLA.

While of course not every such student will engage in deleterious activities while in the U.S. (or after they return home), a sufficiently large number will that, given the impossibility of the U.S. government conducting sufficiently in-depth background checks on each of them (as a result of a lack of resources or access to the necessary information), a blanket ban might be the only effective alternative. And, in many instances, students are only approached for intelligence-gathering purposes by the PRC after they have arrived in the U.S. or after they have returned home to China. In such cases, pre-vetting would be ineffectual.

Such a blanket ban would be advisable only for so long as the PRC seeks to undermine around the world the values we hold dear, considers America an enemy, conducts (and solicits Chinese students in the U.S. to conduct) massive amounts of espionage against us, pilfers our nation’s intellectual property, and prepares for future armed conflict against us. However, it is impossible to say when the PRC will cease and desist.

Fast Fact: Catch & Release: Border Patrol has had to put a weight limit on how much illegal aliens can carry when picked up

“They even tote their luggage. Mr. Lankford said the Border Patrol has had to put a weight limit on how much migrants can carry with them as they’re picked up in buses and shipped to stations where they’ll go through the catch-and-release process.

Two years ago in February 2020, when the Trump administration was in control and the pandemic had yet to hit, the Border Patrol’s Yuma sector recorded just 1,002 illegal immigrant apprehensions. In 2021, just as Mr. Biden took over, it soared to 5,128. And by this year, agents nabbed 20,860 illegal immigrants in February.”

‘Glam migration:’ The illegal immigrant wore Versace

Lawmaker recalls fashion choice amid border disorder

A U.S. senator was stunned during his recent border trip when he saw an illegal immigrant who’d just jumped the boundary in a Versace dress.

Sen. James Lankford, fresh off a Memorial Day trip to the border in Yuma, Arizona, reported back to colleagues this week on the piles of wall-building materials he saw rusting in the elements, just a mile down the road from a gap in the border wall where migrants could pour through with ease.

The Oklahoma Republican said illegal crossers will step over the boundary and wait for Border Patrol agents to come pick them up, figuring — usually correctly — that they’ll be processed and quickly released into the U.S. to go on to their destinations.

That was the case for the Versace-wearing woman.

“When I got to the processing area, one of the Border Patrol agents walked up to me and said, ‘You see the lady behind you?’ And I turned around and said, ‘Yes.’ He said, ‘She’s wearing a Versace dress,’” Mr. Lankford recounted on the Senate floor… read the rest here at the Washington Times

Fast Fact: Illegal immigration and amnesty: #GA07 Republican candidate Michael Corbin says we should “naturalize them” VIDEO

June 7, 2022 By D.A. King

Updated about 1:00PM: Republican congressional candidate is now responding on Twitter and confirms his position on not just amnesty, but U.S. citizenship for illegal aliens. 
Updated again, 3:00 PM: Corbin has blocked me on Twitter.
Corbin4Congress Twitter feed

More on Michael Corbin.
The below note was part of an email sent here from a GA07 voter.
“Mike Corbin Quote on “Naturalize Them” we pulled from the GA7 Candidate Forum April 22: (We believe it’s word for word, but the audio quality was horrible).
Michael Corbin. Photo: Ballotpedia
“For me, it’s pretty easy… I don’t believe in sending troops to the border. 
I think it’s a slippery slope and just think we need to change our policies. 
We need to have a policy on how do we get these people legal and it needs to be okay that there is a path and a process to get them back into legal status. 
Are you gonna just kick em out? 
I mean how many people do you think that’ll affect? 
The way is to naturalize them. Stop it. Stop the Bleeding. And find a way to naturalize the people who are here.”

Video.

We note that Corbin’s proposal isn’t merely to legalize “them” – but to make “them” U.S. citizens with the privilege to vote.

We don’t know if this guy knows about the failure of the one-time amnesty of 1986 and we don’t know why he would want to create 11-20 million-ish new Democrat voters. But he sounds a lot like a Democrat.

Fast Fact: Georgia Secretary of State says it looks like about 1600 “non-citizens” tried to vote in 2020 election – and about 30,000 voters skipped the presidential race

March 14, 2022 By D.A. King

From Ga Pundit newsletter today
Georgia Secretary of State Brad Raffensperger spoke about election procedures in Liberty County, according to WTOC.
Raffensperger said he came to set the record straight about the state’s election integrity. This, of course, stems from the uproar the state faced after the 2020 presidential election.
“Georgia is recognized as #1 for election integrity in America. #1 for the first time ever,” Raffensperger said.
“People said that the machines were flipping votes, so what I said was let’s go ahead and recount the presidential race. All five million ballots, lets recount all of them by hand. What we showed is the count was accurate,” he said.
Another thing Raffensperger brought up was something you might not expect lots of voters chose not to vote for anyone at all for president in 2020.
—–> He says nearly 30,000 people who voted that year chose to skip the presidential part of the ballot, even though they filled out the other parts.
“Yet they voted down ballot for the sheriff, county commissioner, state rep, congress other races like that. The republican congressman got 33,000 more votes that President Trump and that’s why he came up short,” Raffensperger said.

—–> “We have done a 100% scrub of the entire voter rolls. All 7.5 million people. We identified about 1,600 people that appear that could be non-citizens. Now we’re going to do a deep-dive and do some one-on-one interviews.”

Elements of Georgia’s new election law were also brought to the podium. Changes that have a particular impact on absentee voting.
“How can you argue with the photo that’s on your drivers’ license,” he continued. “We actually increased early voting. From 16 days to 17 days at every county now,” Raffensperger said. “No electioneering, no politicking in the 150 foot [zone]. No water, no food, no talking to folks.”

Both leading Republican candidates for Georgia’s 2022 U.S. Senate race have supported immigration amnesty

A Washington friend asked me to outline what is happening in Georgia with the 2022 race for U.S. Senate related to immigration. I explained that reading the liberal Atlanta Journal Constitutionwould not give him a full picture.

The story so far.

Elected in 2010, career Big Ag lobbyist and Georgia’s current Commissioner of Agriculture, Gary Black, went to Washington in 2011 and recommended to a U.S. Senate panel that illegal alien farm labor be legalized. They should be required to remain in the farm industry to keep their renewable work permits, he said.

Fast Fact: Democrats stop COVID testing requirement for illegal aliens

October 29, 2021 By D.A. King

Del Rio, Texas. USA September, 2021. Getty.

Proposal required a negative COVID test for any illegal alien before being released from custody was blocked by 217 Democrats in the House

On Wednesday, the proposal made by Red. Marianette Miller-Meeks (R-IA) that would require a negative COVID test for any illegal migrant before being released from custody was blocked by 217 Democrats in the House.
The proposal, called the REACT Act, was introduced twice this year, the first time being in March. On both occasions, it was blocked by House Democrats, despite a record-level surge in illegal migration over the summer of 2021.
“Today, I offered my REACT Act on the House floor, which would require DHS to give a COVID test to everyone crossing our border illegally. The majority chose to block this common-sense bill that would ensure the health and safety of border patrol and border communities.”Here from thepostmillennial.com

Fast Fact: More Than 750 Million Worldwide Would Migrate If They Could

U.S. Still Top Desired Destination for Potential Migrants

The countries where potential migrants say they would like to move — if they could — have generally been the same for the past 10 years. In fact, roughly 18 countries attract two-thirds of all potential migrants worldwide.

Although the image of U.S. leadership took a beating between 2016 and 2017, the U.S. continues to be the most desired destination country for potential migrants, as it has since Gallup started tracking these patterns a decade ago.

One in five potential migrants (21%) — or about 158 million adults worldwide — name the U.S. as their desired future residence. Canada, Germany, France, Australia and the United Kingdom each appeal to more than 30 million adults.
