Researchers: 103,000 Migrant Women Will Be Sexually Assaulted on Way to U.S. This Year
Crime data shows that roughly 2,600 migrants will be murdered and roughly 103,000 will be raped or assaulted during their 2019 migration to the United States, says an estimate prepared by Steven Kopits, president of Princeton Policy Advisors.
“We estimate 80,000 migrant women were raped or coerced into sex during 2018, rising to 103,000 on higher migrant numbers in 2019,” said a statement from Kopits, whose predictions of migration increases been repeatedly validated by the eventual numbers. “These are persons … Incidents could be up to 50% higher.”
Alongside the murder and rapes, Kopits predicted 34,000 kidnappings, 21,000 cases of forced labor trafficking, and 106,000 robberies during 2019.
Kopits argues that the massive level of brutality could be sharply reduced if the United States expanded the current blue-collar guest workers programs. For example, the H-2B program brings in roughly 80,000 guest workers from Jamaica, Mexico, Honduras, and many other countries for manual labor at resorts, hotels, restaurants and forestry firms.
The similar H-2A visa program delivers more visa workers to agriculture companies, both to replace illegal aliens and also avoid the purchase of labor-saving machinery. Both programs require foreign workers to return home one a year or so, so keeping many of their families in the home country.
“In a market-based approach, 95% of the [criminal] pathology noted above disappears, virtually overnight (as does the domestic exploitation),” Kopits said in a statement to Breitbart News. He continued:

One can only imagine that, say, [Democratic Rep.] Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez would want to support legislation which would protect 100,000 women per year and see up to 100,000 imprisoned migrants released … If you have AOC, by definition you have [House Speaker Nancy] Pelosi. Democrats have little choice but to support a market-based approach, to the extent it is not otherwise cruel.

Democrats, the SPLC, and CAIR Argue Against Collecting Data on Alien Prisoners in Georgia
If politics makes for strange bedfellows, then how much truer that is where immigration politics is concerned. The most recent proof of that was occasioned by a public hearing on an amendment to a bill introduced into the Georgia House of Representatives.
The bill is short and straightforward: It would require the Georgia Department of Corrections (DOC) to maintain statistics regarding the number of alien prisoners in its custody; what percentage they compose of the total population of state prisoners, with breakdowns by nationality; and, importantly, those against whom Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) has filed detainers with the intent of taking them into custody to begin deportation proceedings upon release. It would also require those figures to be made publicly available.
At the hearing, the Southern Poverty Law Center (SPLC) was joined by Council on American-Islamic Relations (CAIR) to argue against the bill, which we know courtesy of D.A. King, who attended the hearing and took a photo of the sign-in sheet.
This brings us back to that question of strange bedfellows, in this case, the SPLC and CAIR. Consider:
The SPLC is prone to denunciations of a host of other organizations or individuals whose views it does not share as racists, anti-Semites, hate groups, homophobes, xenophobes, you name it. Sometimes this gets the SPLC into hot water — for instance, when it was obliged to apologize to Dr. Ben Carson for having added him to its "extremist watch list", or when it labeled Muslim reformer Maajid Nawaz an "anti-Muslim extremist" and was forced to settle a lawsuit for more than $3 million, plus a public apology. There have been op-eds in liberal newspapers such as the Washington Post suggesting that the SPLC has lost its credibility, and even the liberal journal Politico has asked the same question. Even so, the SPLC, with a huge war chest from donations of earnest liberals, remains unrepentant. (Disclosure: the Center for Immigration Studies, of which I am a fellow, is suing the president of the SPLC, and the head of its "hate" operation, under the Racketeer Influenced and Corrupt Organizations act (RICO) for having labeled our organization as a hate group.)
CAIR is a very different organization. It was an unindicted co-conspirator in a federal criminal action against the Holy Land Foundation, a donation-collections front for the HAMAS terrorist organization. The United Arab Emirates lists CAIR as a terrorist organization because of its links to HAMAS and the Muslim Brotherhood. As recently as last April, a Los Angeles CAIR official found himself scrambling after he was exposed by the media for comments likening Israel to the brutal Islamic State, which during its brief reign over swathes of Iraq and Syria, tortured, beheaded, crucified, and stoned to death unbelievers, ethnic and religious minorities, and homosexuals (the very kinds of people SPLC claims to want to protect).
It would seem, then, that the only thing that these organizations share is an antipathy for any form of immigration enforcement, or anything that exposes to the light the kind of data that the bill might require.
Returning to the Georgia bill, King notes that one Democrat arguing against the bill went so far as to predict "race wars" in Georgia's penal institutions (listen at 7:10 here).

Media Blackout: CNN, MSNBC Ignore FEC Complaint Against Ocasio-Cortez
As of late this morning, neither MSNBC nor CNN have covered the explosive allegations of campaign finance violations against Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez (D-NY) and her chief of staff, Saikat Chakrabarti, according to the Daily Caller.
It was revealed earlier this week that an FEC complaint had been filed accusing Ocasio-Cortez and her chief of staff, Saikat Chakrabarti of violating campaign finance laws and illegally funneling nearly $885,000 in contributions from political action committees.
According to the Daily Caller, while both CNN and MSNBC mentioned the socialist lawmaker multiple times throughout their programming, neither network discussed the allegations against her.
The Daily Caller writes:
A review of MSNBC’s and CNN’s on-air coverage via Grabien, a television video-clipping service, turned up nothing on these allegations levied against the freshmen representative.
Ocasio-Cortez was mentioned during seven different shows Tuesday on MSNBC. Her defense of Democratic Minnesota Rep. Ilhan Omar, who is facing allegations of anti-Semitism, was referenced in...

Amazon Crosses a Very Dangerous Censorship Line
With the news last week that Amazon has banned Mohammed’s Koran: Why Muslims Kill for Islam, co-authored by British activist Tommy Robinson and Peter McLoughlin, Amazon has crossed a very dangerous and precarious line.
Two immediate questions come to mind. First, why ban a book critiquing Islam when a host of other books critiquing — harshly attacking, to be honest — other religious faiths are available on Amazon? Second, why ban this book and not other books that critique Islam? Why draw the line here?
When McLoughlin, who helped expose the “grooming” crimes committed by some British Muslims, received word that the book had been removed from Amazon, he wrote, “This is the twenty-first century equivalent of the Nazis taking out the books from university libraries and burning them.
“Can you think of another scholarly book on Islam that has been banned by Amazon? Mein Kampf is for sale on Amazon. As are books like the terrorist manual called The Anarchist Cookbook.”
Yet Mohammed’s Koran gets banned?
Why This Book?
According to Robert Spencer, who has authored scholarly works critiquing the Koran, Robinson and McLoughlin’s book “endeavors to illustrate how violent jihadists justify their actions by referring to Islamic texts and teachings — and that’s all. Robinson and McLoughlin call for no violence. Their book is...
