Facebook Reel: Ex Cop Dominick Izzo Explains the truth about Chicago ICE Raids no one wants to talk about

#1  A lot of what he says is true. Here in SoCal, we interact with Hispanics every day. You can't help but like these people, even some of the more sketchy ones. They do work hard, they love their families, they are friendly and likable. Don't you dare call me a racist because I'm friends with a lot of these people and I value their friendship.

Some of them come from families that were here before mine was. Some of them came here legally. I have absolutely no problem with them.

None of that means we should leave our border wide open, let millions of illiterate peasants into our country, pay for their health care and education and let them vote in our elections. And when I see some of them waving their Mexican flags while they protest, riot and throw rocks at police it pisses me off real bad.

Yes, they work real hard but I hotly disagree with Izzo when he says that Americans either will not or cannot do those jobs. We can do those jobs just as well if not better but we'll want more money for it. We won't work two or three jobs for 70 hours a week and share a house with two other families. Well, maybe we would. I think that during the Great Depression a lot of white Americans did. You might be surprised what all you can do if you get hungry enough. It's not our fault that we've never been that hungry.

Many illegal aliens will eventually assimilate and become good American citizens. Then let's see if they'll keep working 70 hours a week at menial jobs and share a house with two other families.

It is at least partially our fault that Mexico is a failed narco-terror state. We demanded illegal drugs and our government let the Mexican cartels deliver those drugs to us. The money from that business corrupted Mexico's government and ours. It's their fault for delivering those drugs but it's our fault for letting them.

It needs to stop. We need to make sure that our country remains our country. Anybody who gets in the way of ICE needs to go to jail for a good, long time.

#2  Every immigrant population in America has split between hard-working good citizens and rampant criminals. Those immigrant groups that settled in the cities had a gang stage because the kids were protecting their neighbourhood from jostling from other unassimilated immigrant ethnic groups. The key is to first get rid of those who chose the criminal route and those unwilling to accept living by our rules, including not raping girls who would be legal back home, not driving dangerously, and not beating their wives. This includes the Latinos Mr. Izzo describes, Moslems, and Chinese — the latter two needing to give up the demand for conquest.

And given that those illegals who self-deport have the option of applying to come back legally, I don’t have a problem with sending them all home to do so. After all, the Trump administration is streamlining procedures and requirements so there shouldn’t br a ten year application backlog soon.

Thanks

#3  Transcribed for you, Seeking cure:

The Danes passed a law in 1992 to bring in 321 refugees from Palestine. A study followed them until 2019.

Of those who came:
204 were convicted of a crime (63%)
71 were jailed
176 ended up on welfare(more than half)

The second generation was 999 children:
337 convicted of a crime (34%)
132 jailed
372 ended up on welfare (37%)

The Justice Minister, who had presided over the entire thing, said “these asylum seekers should not have been let in.”

Government Corruption
James Comey Is Not an Innocent Victim of the Lawfare He Helped to Create
Key bits:
[Mises] The recent indictment of James Comey has galvanized the usual suspects of the Washington establishment, who have reacted predictably to the criminal charges against one of their own. The New York Times editorialized with the headline, "The Comey Indictment Plunges the Country Into a Grave New Period," declaring:

The events of the past week in Virginia mark a dark new stage in President Trump’s effort to turn federal law enforcement into a personal tool of oppression and vengeance. He is undermining a core promise of the American justice system: the fair and equal enforcement of the law.
…fifty-seventh verse same as the first…
Times columnist David French—who still insists that the Iraq war was justified and honorable and remains a true believer that the "Russiagate" investigations were legitimate—wrote:

There are times when I miss practicing law, because — right now — there are few more important posts for defending the rule of law and the integrity of the American system of justice than on James Comey’s defense team.

Let’s be clear — perfectly clear — about what happened last week. On Thursday, a federal grand jury, acting on the urging of President Trump’s Department of Justice, indicted Comey, the former director of the F.B.I. This indictment was the culmination of a transparently vindictive campaign by Trump to get revenge on his political enemies, no matter the facts or the law.

In other words, French is claiming that what Trump and the DOJ are doing is unprecedented in US history. Now, make no mistake about the troublesome nature of this indictment and how the White House orchestrated the events. Former federal prosecutor Andy McCarthy, who is no fan of Comey and was a strong critic of the "Russiagate" investigation, has called the indictment "incoherent" and predicts that the charges could well be dismissed long before the case could go to trial.

Yet, the Comey indictment is ironic in that while the legacy media condemns the indictment against him, it heaped praise on him when he pursued highly questionable criminal charges against others and used the justice system as a weapon against innocent people. For example, his case against investment banker Frank Quattrone [charges dismissed in 2007] was built on lies and false accusations, something that Candice E. Jackson and I wrote about on the Mises Wire more than 20 years ago.

THE REGIME’S DOUBLE STANDARD ON LAW — AND WHY IT MATTERS
As I wrote earlier, the Comey indictment is troubling, given Trump’s previous statements and the obvious fact that he all-but-ordered the US Department of Justice to secure an indictment no matter what. In fact, as Andrew McCarthy has written, this point alone probably is Comey’s best defense, and I believe that in the end, no jury will convict Comey—if the case even goes to trial. It may be easy to twist the malleable federal criminal statutes -- which is why the DOJ was able to fashion an indictment against Comey -- but even a federal jury is likely to see this case as a bridge too far....

The irony here, however, is that people like French and his employer have recalled Lavrentiy Beria’s infamous boast, "Show me the man and I’ll show you the crime" as though it only applies to what Trump has done. Yet, if any publication has proven that the spirit of Beria lives in American "justice," it is the New York Times.

During the 1980s, it was the NYT that championed Rudy Giuliani’s predatory Wall Street prosecutions, conducted while he held the US Attorney position that Comey would later hold in New York City. Paul Craig Roberts and Daniel Fischel have documented how Giuliani and his underlings engaged in lawless behavior, committing felony after felony by leaking secret federal grand jury testimony to the NYT and the Wall Street Journal. Not surprisingly, the NYT editorial board never objected to any of Giuliani’s law breaking even though it was done expressly to deny the accused fair trials. In fact, his very abuse of the law inspired the NYT to publish a near-puff piece as the guy who gets things done....

CONCLUSION
Ever since Donald Trump was elected in 2016, he has battled not only with the Washington establishment but also with unelected officials in the government, something Connor O’Keeffe noted in his recent article. The clash between Trump and the sanctimonious Comey became inevitable as Comey first attempted to find a way to indict Trump and Trump paying him back.

Contrary to what David French, the NYT, and the usual suspects are claiming, we are seeing the culmination of lawfare that has been going on in this country for many years. Rudy Giuliani and James Comey built their careers on abusive prosecutions and using the power of their offices to skirt the law, and Alvin Bragg and Leticia James have extended that practice to the state level.

None of this needed to happen, but here we are. Two years ago, this page warned that by trying to imprison Donald Trump, Democrats were creating the conditions for a Third World banana republic. We are now there, and it won’t stop with the Comey indictment. Yes, one can lay blame with Trump, but Comey also has played a role in breaking down the guardrails to justice, and now all of us must pay.

#1  His description of the Flynn takedown is on tape. Everyone who knows who James Comey is has watched the tape. That tape is where I knew that the FBI needed to be shut down.

#2  Figures that Comey was an Obama appointee, but not that Trump is much better about whom he appoints/selects.

#4  The events of the past week in Virginia mark a dark new stage in President Trump’s effort to turn federal law enforcement into a personal tool of oppression and vengeance. He is undermining a core promise of the American justice system: the fair and equal enforcement of the law.

That's about as good an example of Democrat projection as you'll ever see.

Israel-Palestine-Jordan
Opposing views on the Interception (and runback for six)


Text:

So GretaThunberg has arrived in Greece. She gave a speech in which she did not mention she was forced to kiss flags or was dragged by her hair, but rest assured, once she will be updated by her comrades on that story, she will learn she was indeed dragged by her hair and forced to kiss the Israeli flag

The most interesting part here is the crowd that met her and her friends from the flotilla. Listen to the crowd. People in it do not give a damn what she has to say (Greta basically recirculate the same very buzz words like genocide, apartheid, ethnic cleansing, occupation and etc. etc.), they just there to chant trendy slogans and have some good time - very much sums up the entire narrative of this flotilla.

More from the Kommiez:



From the Israeli Foreign Ministry via X:



Text:

No wonder the fake-aid Hamas–Sumud flotilla rejected all the proposals from Israel, Italy, and Greece to peacefully unload the aid for Gaza in one of the regional ports: after checking all the ships and yachts of the flotilla, the total “aid” we found amounted to barely 2 tons across 42 vessels.

This amounts to less than one-tenth of a single aid truck!

For comparison:
• A single aid truck entering Gaza carries about 20 tons of aid.
• Around 300 aid trucks enter Gaza every day.

The Hamas–Sumud flotilla was nothing more than a publicity stunt.

#1  A publicity stunt? With Greta "I stage arrests" Thunberg? NOOOOOOOOOO, say it ain't so!

I guess that little turd gave up on climate change and just wants, in her little mind, to remain "relevant".
