Physical Deportation Is The First Step, And Cutting Illegals Off From Our Society Is The Next Step!

Going after violent illegals is an absolutely necessary first step in cleansing our country of the scourge of uncontrolled illegal immigration. Traffic stops, chasing them on foot, or if necessary breaking down doors at 3:00AM and dragging them to a waiting flight to Sh*tcanistan is something that the American people will support.

But the huge numbers of illegals in our country make physical deportation a long and complex process. Luckily, there are other ways! As I wrote a few days ago, going after their employers, starting with the biggest companies will make huge inroads into the illegal population by denying them the ability to steal Americans' identities and undercut their price for labor.

And there is more! Lax enforcement of existing laws, and banks that chased their business have allowed illegals to enter our financial systems, with credit cards, bank accounts, auto and home loans, etc.

Will the administration end that? It sure sounds like they are beginning to take it seriously, or at least paying some attention!

Stephen Miller says Trump administration is pursuing policy to debank illegal immigrants

"President Trump signed an executive order a few weeks ago saying that we are not going to allow illegal aliens to use banking services in this country," Miller said.

"Illegal aliens have credit cards, they have bank accounts and they're paid with direct deposit. So, illegal aliens fully participate in the commercial systems, the financial systems of America. Shutting that down is a massive engine for deportation."

Miller was likely referring to an executive order Trump signed on May 19 that directed banks and federal regulators to increase scrutiny of accounts and credit applications involving immigrants without legal status or work authorization.

The order did not explicitly instruct banks to deny credit cards or bank accounts to illegal immigrants, but compliance with it could make it more difficult for them to participate in the financial system.

Federal agencies have already begun acting on Trump's executive order.


Executive orders are a stopgap measure. But it is a start. The real teeth will come if the various banking regulators demand that banks positively identify all account holders, and verify that their identification is not fraudulent or stolen. As I mentioned on Thursday, "E-Verify" needs to be improved, because we are our own worst enemy. But forcing the issue and making financial institutions take seriously the identification regulations would go a long way toward pushing illegals back to their home countries. If they can't easily open bank accounts or cash checks or buy cars or get an account with the electric company, their lives will become much more difficult.

And that is the goal! We have made their lives effortless for too long. It is time to push them back into the shadows, and make every interaction with the legal financial world a risk.

Debanking is an excellent start.

Health officials identify source of US explosive diarrhoea outbreak
38 minutes ago

A sample of iceberg lettuce from the food supplier Taylor Farms has tested positive for the parasite that caused an explosive diarrhoea outbreak affecting thousands of people in the US, officials said.

The Food and Drug Administration (FDA) said that Taylor Farms, which supplies the Taco Bell food chain, had confirmed the sample was taken from a product not part of its current recall announced on Friday.

13 I always thought the notion that Americans are financially obligated to support illegal aliens in public schools was one of the worst possible decisions they could possibly make. Coupled with the fairy tale “birthright citizenship” nonsense, it matters not what the laws say. It’s a losing battle. Plyler vs. whatever.

If you want to deconstruct society, this is how you do it. Maybe you think this is a good idea, but it’s illegal as hell. “Judges” have largely been the ruin of this nation, arguably. Experts, the “best and brightest”, Ivy League spooks, good old boys from Deah Old Hahvahd.

Entry Without Inspection (EWI) is a federal misdemeanor. "Entry Without Inspection Pursuant to a Prior Order of Deportation" (i.e., a second offense) CAN be charged as a felony, but rarely is.

I assume Trump's DOJ is cracking down on repeat illegal alien offenders now.

Illegal aliens don't USE ITNs! They make up a SSN instead! Which is also a federal misdemeanor, i.e. "Misuse of a Social Security Number."

The Social Security Administration sends "no match" letters to employers when this happens. That's why employers who hire illegals don't have to buy toilet paper.

The problem with that is they never assimilate and reproduce like rabbits and their kids have the same attitudes. We have some illegals around here that have been in the country illegally for 10-20 years and still don't speak english. That's why pretty much every social service in our county has to have their stuff printed in english and spanish and they have translators on staff.

Some will, but there are many Americans who now view a job as optional. The rules must be changed again (back to where they were after the GOP forced reform on Clinton), so that welfare, under whatever guise, is limited in time, and/or available only to the truly needy.

35 In the very early 1900's a play started up on Broadway called "The Melting Pot" created by a dramatist named Zangwill. That's how the term wormed its way into the common lexicon and gave the US the reputation of welcoming immigrants, but with the caveat that they must assimilate to create a finished product; An American.

However, the concept failed as the motivations of the new arrivals changed. Now, many new arrivals make every effort to avoid assimilation. Instead, they force their own failed cultural indiosyncracies on established residents. Other motivations are purely personal finances and exploitation. For some it is to eventual absolute dominance and destruction.

Which makes me wonder if the term "Melting pot" is considered bigotry by today's left and their invading minions. Especially since the man that coined the phrase (Zangwill) was Jewish.

Coupled with the fairy tale “birthright citizenship” nonsense, it matters not what the laws say. It’s a losing battle. Plyler vs. whatever.”

Plyler vs Doe, 1982. It always amuses me that i knew Jim Plyler, who at the time was the Superintendent of Schools for the Tyler School District. The case was brought by the US DOJ after Tyler Schools refused to admit the children of illegal aliens in 1981.

It is the practice to name cases between organizations with the name of the person who is in charge of the organization being sued. It always amused Jim that his name was made famous by such a significant case, even though he himself had very little to do with it.

Plus, for illegals, no driver's licenses, no car tabs, no welfare, no medical insurance, no public school enrollments or education financial aid, and so on.

FWIW, a couple of weeks ago, I filled up my Suburban at a discount gas station in the tiny hamlet of Balzac, Alberta. Just outside the northern city limits of Calgary. Waiting at the pump, in front of me was a U-Haul box truck being filled by a swarthy guy. It had Arizona plates, Parked in the lot were four other U-Haul box trucks, ALL with AZ plates. The station is a U-Haul agency. Now it's not unusual for U-Haul agencies to have out-of-area plates. But for all the out-of-area plates to be from ONE locality? Weird.

Not every illegal who comes to America is interested in handouts. Some have political aspirations that go beyond just having influence in elections.

They want themselves to be elected. This way they can push legislation (as they've been doing in Congress for years) to facilitate more illegals of their ilk to resettle here. Changing the entire demographics of cities, counties and states.

Ending slavery was a vast hardship to the traditional agricultural economy of the South, much the way that ending sharecropping was intensely damaging to the economy of the south 100 years later.
These actions did not destroy the economy, even though they caused dislocations that had to be resolved. Those crops continued under new terms.

And yet, what killed King Cotton and King Sugar and King Indigo wasn't labor costs, but the financialization of the industries that depended on those crops that made it a good deal, financially for the financiers, to export them to China and similar places.

Posted by: Archimedes
======
Working 'hard' is not the same as labor productivity and lowly educated illegals are not particularly productive compared with other labor or mechanization. They come cheap, not necessarily productive.

That is one of the key flaws in Marxian analysis of economics--workers are not widgets and have varying degrees of productivity depending on a number of factors. Likewise, the decision to mechanize a labor task like digging a ditch, is often superior than hiring a bunch of illegals to do it. But, it takes an owner willing to invest in capital goods and a better quality laborer that won't tear up the machine nor do damage with it.

When illegals are cheap labor, the employer will choose the floating population of cheap labor because his competitors are doing the same thing so he faces a competitive issue and initial costs are higher.

Virginia requires voters to present non-photo identification (ID) while voting. Accepted forms of ID include Virginia driver's licenses, U.S. passports, student IDs, and copies of current utility bills or bank statements. For a list of all accepted forms of ID, see below.[1]

Voters without a required ID may sign an ID confirmation statement and vote a regular ballot.

Absolutely true. Same thing with crime, not educating children, and other social policies.

But the influence on decisionmakers is to empire build and feather their own nests, not the primary goal of whatever institution is created to address a social problem. And it appears substituting contractors for the government employees is equal bad because the same influences without competition end up with the same dysfunction.

It is very difficult to set up competitive markets for discipline on social policy institutions because the entire incentive structure of government/contractors aims at dysfunction rather than solving the problem in a cost efficient manner.

Education is a perfect example--our version of Soviet agriculture with about the same results.

When Gabbard sent a team down to Georgia and refused to seek the Senate Select Intelligence Committee's approval, and brief him personally, he went apoplectic. When Trump announced his speech that occurred last Thursday, Warner was alll over the airwaves stating that it was theatrics and held no substance even before he knew what was being presented. Which begs the question, how deeply is the SSIC involved in these frauds, and in what capacity?

One would have to question whether Warner is personally involved in the foreign influence of elections, or perhaps orchestrating it.

145 Working 'hard' is not the same as labor productivity and lowly educated illegals are not particularly productive compared with other labor or mechanization. They come cheap, not necessarily productive.

That is true, but for most people, the interactions with illegals in the work place involve construction, yard care, domestic work, and restaurants. My anecdotal experience is that they are very hard working.

150 SiriusXM pricing is a farce.

My 2 year "promotional trial" that is running me $6.50 per month (full cost is about $28.00 per month) is expiring at the end of July. I called SiriusXM today to "cancel." Ten minutes later I had a new 1 year "promotion trial" that runs $7.50 per month, a reasonable price increase. I pushed for another 2 year deal but the AI agent was having none of that.

In other news, these AI customer service agents are uncannily good at what they are tasked with.

But telling the truth is. There's no persistent reason to think the left cannot steal another "election." Especially when we depend on the likes of the GOP to make sure our interests are looked after.

And, not to put too fine a point on this, but the judiciary, who's responsible for handing down not only punishments, but law and legal decisions, is firmly on the left's side.

Can it be fixed? Neutered? Rehabilitated?

Posted by: Archimedes

Mine is opposite of yours--restaurants have had a substantial decline in hygiene tied to casual standards of the third world, I see lazy construction workers that use nail guns like a machine gun rather than point and aiming, awful masonry skills where the mortar is smeared around and bricks/blocks not aligned properly, roofers leaving trash everywhere where they think it will be hidden and doing substandard work, and so on, etc.

They come cheap, not necessarily good. Specific individuals may vary as some of the most industrious illegals end up trying for owning a small business etc. but the standard issue is the same Third World mentality that they came from.

And that mentality more or less of this third world is to socialize costs and privatize any benefits. Low trust society.

That is nice. The extra profit for hiring someone who works extra hard for less pay is probably a good thing.

The extra costs that the employer spares himself is often taken up by tax supported social services, which is the exact example of outsourcing, or "socializing" the production costs for private profit.
Also the social cost of having a permanent underclass that is legally unable to advance, and reluctant to use law enforcement and the courts to protect themselves form predation by criminals.
And the fact that the underclass is also the section that tends to involve themselves directly or indirectly in crime out of solidarity of fear

Telling the truth about current conditions is one thing, making predictions like Nostradamus is quite another. And the direction is predictable--when all you see and spout are negatives, that is as unrealistic as seeing everything positive.

Life is a struggle, we cannot recapture the past, we can only move forward to address the challenges then and do our best to fix what we can in the time we have allotted on this earth. Nothing is fixed, nothing is definite, and no victory nor defeat permanent.

This isn’t relevant, actually. The problem is the financialization. The negative impacts of mass migration or cost shifted to the taxpayers, who get no benefits per se.

The businesses employing illegals get an advantage. Your hospital does not. Your cop shop does not.

Your schools do, kinda. Federal dollars for every ass in the seat.

You said they work extra hard, I surmised the reason the employers took them on is because they work cheaper.
That, in my experience with construction, farm work, housekeeping, yard work, and restaurants is exactly why the employers hire them in spite of having screwed up I9 and fake working docs.
They could hire better legals, but on the whole the margin of profit is so slender, especially in restaurants, they go with what they figure they can afford.
And the taxpayer subsidizes these industries through social safety nets.

It is still peonage. It is still peonage enforced by government regulation. We can live in this extremely inujst and morally questionable world for cheap lawncare and cheap french fries, or we can take away the laws and open the borders to everyone no matter what, or we can enforce the laws and accept that marginal businesses are going to either have to adapt or die

190 much the way that ending sharecropping was intensely damaging to the economy of the south 100 years later.

Ending slavery was an enormous disruption, yes (and the unpleasantness leading up to it didn't help).
My understanding is that it was the tractor which made sharecropping untenable, however. This helped the South's economy boom (other factors include airconditioning and the removal of nasty worms and bugs, and better roads). The Civil Rights movement happened because the rest of the US noticed at least a second world economy in the South and didn't think it had an excuse for running a third world feudal society.

Yes and no, the government stepped in with serious laws on it in the 50's and 60'which really ended it, and the mechanization of ag started from WWI to WWII.

Of course the phasing out of sharecropping meant the work had to be done somehow, and that led to the rise of migrant and seasonal work. The federal Farm Labor act was brought on in 1964 to regulate that, and of course the Migrant and Seasonal Protection Act was brought on in the 80's to cover what was missed in 1964. MSPA and Farm Labor were very focused on working and living conditions, pay, and the areas intentionally neglected by Fair Labor Standards Act from the New Deal

217 I'm way late to this and it's probably already been said but going after employers is the best solution. Best because so many - especially the young street animals - already support communism over capitalism and they will not be sympathetic to big fat cat capitalists. So yes go after the employers, make it impossible for illegals to earn income and they will self deport.

220 I still think temporary work permits could be part of the solution to "jobs American won't do," i.e., slaughtering chickens.
Posted by: mnw at July 19, 2026 01:31 PM (RCjYY)

"Temporary" work permits should be for seasonal jobs, like harvesting veggies, and possibly some construction work. Slaughtering chickens is steady work; gets done year-in, year-out.

221 In our over surveilled society this should be relatively easy. Govt never takes the easy route though.

But I'd start with any account that has sent more than one transfer to a foreign country. Make the banks verify them.

The ME DEM Senate race is over, for all practical purposes. The DEM nominee to face Collins will be former state senate president Troy Jackson (D).

They're selected delegates this past week, and some delegate selection meetings are still ongoing.

However, Jackson is kicking adz. He's saying the same sh*t Platner did, but he'll be a formidable opponent for Collins, imo.

They already do, and are, but that still doesn't explain Esptein and Dimon unless Brennan approved it, because he did.

The Three Specific Emails (JPMorgan/Epstein Context)

The "Birthday Book" Outreach (2011): The email outlines how the bank could use Epstein's personal relationships with these men to secure them

The Problem for Dimon: This contradicts his 2023 testimony that he was unaware of Epstein's activities. ...

The "Wall of Cash" Email (2013):

The Intelligence Link: This is where John Brennan’s name frequently surfaces in the 2026 inquiry.

#3 The "Moscow/Russian" Date Email (2010):
An email from Epstein to a high-ranking contact (recently linked to the broader "Clinton network" in the files) regarding a meeting with a "clever, beautiful, trustworthy" Russian woman.

If Brennan didn't KNOW (and approve) he wouldn't be very intelligent now would he?

LET's GO BRANDON!

I would like there to be a law that states-

If we have to find them and deport them, at that point, then their bank accts and all property and housing and transportation that they own are forfeit to the gov't.

I'm also thinking that any one who rents property ( apps, houses, etc) immediately loses their the entirety of their property to the gov't.

233 The problem with that is they never assimilate and reproduce like rabbits and their kids have the same attitudes. We have some illegals around here that have been in the country illegally for 10-20 years and still don't speak english. That's why pretty much every social service in our county has to have their stuff printed in english and spanish and they have translators on staff.
Posted by: Mister Scott (Formerly GWS) at July 19, 2026 12:20 PM (0N4FZ)

And make an FCC ruling that both large Spanish networks MUST provide a percentage of their programming in English. And this from someone who was employed by the largest as an engineer. Funny how the official language at the network is English. My Hungarian and Slovak grandparents didn't have the luxury of not learning the language when they arrived back at the turn of the last century.

234 "No workers comp claims, for one. No unemployment insurance claims."

Ackshually, this is incorrect, it is a significant source of fraud, adjustors don't ask for citizenship status and the guy/gal who doesn't care too much about immigration laws, identity theft, doesn't have much of a problem ripping off the work comp system, go figure. That goes to increasing rates for all businesses and ultimately you get to pay for all of it.

235 The biggest motivator for banks is money. If it pays better to not look too closely at the law while collect their fees from a banking customer, why would they cut themselves off from a revenue source? If a bank gains a billion $ from a certain activity & only gets fined $20 million; will they even shed a tear as they supply a scapegoat? Defrauding the taxpayers(the govt) used to be a crime. Until that crimes is punished severely enough; the only inducement will continue to be $.

236 The U.S. won't get rid of illegals by cutting them off from working until they are cut off from gubmint welfare.

And if we limited welfare for non illegals as well it would go a long ways towards ending the "jobs americans wont do"
which is really, a lot of folks figured out that welfare pays better the the jobs they are qualified to do, and even the ones that could advance in a career aren't willing to have the short term money cut for the long term gain.

237 So you're telling me that Abdul, that was competing with the Vultures for something to eat, somehow got imported into our country by our government and setup as a new star in our broad tapestry of a shining beacon to the world. So Abdul contributes to America by doing something for which he is qualified; such as cleaning Porta-Potties on 3rd shift.
But no....a few years later it turns out that Abdul is CEO of a fairly sophisticated operation to scam the USA out of millions...multimillions. And ICE proudly announces he will be deported!!!
No mention of "after serving a lengthy prison sentence". And no mention of the ICE airplane making a quick stop in the south of France to drop off Abdul at his villa. And no mention of pursuing the American AID workers that undoubtedly guided Abdul through the legal labyrinth of setting up the scam. These are the bastards that need to swing.

Market wages are significantly inflated by welfare programs. Chasing illegals is only half the problem.
