I WILL FIGHT FOR AMERICA.


The Left’s Accusation That The Right Is Fascist Is Simply Psychological Projection

Antifa wants to pretend they're fighting a fascist dictatorship, but what they don't realize is that limited government is the best safeguard of all.

Friedrich Nietzsche cautioned those who fight monsters to take care lest they become monsters themselves. He should have also warned those pretending to fight monsters, whose imagined enemies are really projections of their own evils.

Consider Antifa, those self-styled anti-fascists who recently made headlines for harassing the family of Fox News host Tucker Carlson. The paucity of actual Nazis in this country would seem to make Antifa superfluous, but they have a talent for detecting fascists everywhere. Having determined that practically everything and everyone (themselves excepted) is fascist, they spend their free time going about in black shirts smashing things and looking for political opponents to threaten and beat up.

Antifa Is Performative Recreation

Kevin Williamson of National Review evaluates them with pity and disdain: “These play-acting buffoons aren’t the moral equivalent of the French Resistance—they are mincing would-be thugs looking for something that will make them feel better about themselves. Apparently, terrorizing Tucker Carlson’s wife scratches an itch that weed and Netflix don’t.”

Antifa is politics as performative recreation—cosplay and LARPing livened by harassment, vandalism, and moderate violence. The tactics Williamson observed in Portland, “marching through the streets chanting the usual obscenities…blocking traffic, engaging in the casual lawlessness now associated with this city,” are not those of hardened revolutionaries and resistance fighters, but of perpetual adolescents staving off ennui.

They are not much of a threat. The police could quickly clear them out if the feckless city leadership gave them permission, and if the GOP really were fascists then the black-mask LARPers would have been long dead. Portland still harbors many well-armed Republicans, some of whom possess enough firepower to singlehandedly gun down all of Antifa. The danger of Antifa is not that they will do much damage themselves, but that they will normalize political violence for those who would be good at it.

Real political violence is a dreadful thing, and those who yearn for it are ignorant, depraved, or both. The bitterness of civil conflict and war is driven not only by cruelty, ideological fervor, and vengeance, but also by fear. People will do terrible things to avoid being ruled by those who hate them. If (God forbid) it came to us, the fools pretending at it would be among the first to hide, lest they be among the first to die. The Clash sang about the “freedom fighters” of the Spanish Civil War, but they were (at best) patsies fighting on behalf of communist murderers who were as vile as the fascists.


Many of the idealists became monsters themselves. Why some people want to playact at that is mostly a psychological question, although the answers are not obscure—people crave significance, purpose, and accomplishment, and pretending to be an anti-fascist resistance fighter offers a better simulacrum than...

Obama-appointed Judge blocks Trump admin’s migrant asylum crackdown, despite DHS warning

Parts of the caravan have been arriving to Tijuana after traveling more than a month through
 Central America and Mexico to reach the U.S. border.
President Trump’s recent proclamation to help keep America safe was shot down by a federal judge in San Francisco on Monday.

In the face of an approaching ‘caravan’ of migrants headed towards the U.S. Trump issued a proclamation on November 9 that declared anyone who entered the United States illegally ineligible for asylum.

The order was immediately challenged by the American Civil Liberties Union and the Center for Constitutional Rights which sued the Trump administration.

U.S. District judge Jon S. Tigar, an Obama appointee, shot down the proclamation with a temporary restraining order.

BREAKING NEWS: Judge Jon S. Tigar, an Obama appointee who is not even from the US, has blocked the Trump Administration from kicking out illegal aliens saying they have a right to an asylum.
952 people are talking about this
“Individuals are entitled to asylum if they cross between ports of entry. It couldn’t be clearer,” Bahzer Azmy, a lawyer for the Center of Constitutional Rights argued, according to Fox News.

Meanwhile, thousands of people fleeing Honduras and other unknown countries have begun to reach the border. While many of the migrants were welcomed and helped along the arduous journey by Mexican natives, they’ve been met with a large resistance from locals in the Mexican border town of...

Illegal Alien Accused of Attempting to Murder Cops in U.S. is DACA Recipient


An illegal alien charged with attempted capital murder after allegedly firing at Washington County, Arkansas, police officers was in the United States as a recipient of President Obama’s Deferred Action for Childhood Arrivals (DACA) program.

Luis Cobos-Cenobio, a 29-year-old illegal alien, was arrested and charged with attempted capital murder and other charges after dash cam video footage showed the illegal alien being pulled over and then swiftly firing at Arkansas police officers, as Breitbart News reported.

Cobos-Cenobio, according to an exclusive report by the Washington Times, was in the U.S. as a recipient of the DACA program — where an executive order by Obama gave temporary amnesty to nearly 800,000 illegal aliens.

The illegal alien, according to Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) officials, was charged in 2015 with a misdemeanor, but since he was a DACA illegal alien, he was not prioritized or eligible for deportation by federal immigration officials.

“ICE did not lodge a detainer against Mr. Cobos-Cenobio in 2015 as he is a DACA recipient and did not meet the threshold for enforcement under the DHS enforcement priorities in place at that time,” an ICE official told the Washington Times.

Cobos-Cenobio was charged earlier this year with another misdemeanor, but ICE officials say they were not notified of his arrest and therefore were unable to detain and eventually deport him.

The illegal alien is being...

Six Muslim Illegal Aliens from Bangladesh Apprehended at Texas-Mexico Border

To hear progressives dismiss border security and the ever-growing immigration crisis is like listening to late-night talk show hosts wax poetic about virtue — it’s something that doesn’t seem to resonate.

Case in point: Earlier this month, former President Barack Obama derided President Donald Trump for “fear mongering” about the migrant caravan en route to the United States border, as many news outlets reported.

“They’re telling us that the single most grave threat to America is a bunch of poor, impoverished, broke, hungry refugees a thousand miles away,” mocked the former president.

It’s evident Obama hadn’t stepped foot on the Texas-Mexico border recently, if ever — where Laredo Sector Border Patrol agents continue to find illegal immigrants on their way here from Bangladesh.

During a 12-hour period beginning last Saturday evening, in fact, six Bangladeshi nationals were apprehended in two separate incidents, according to Breitbart News.

“In fiscal year 2018, Laredo Sector Border experienced an unprecedented increase on the apprehension of nationals from the country of Bangladesh,” Laredo Sector Chief Patrol Agent Felix Chavez told Breitbart earlier this month.

“The almost 300 percent increase in arrests of Bangladeshi nationals over the previous fiscal year highlights the hard work and vigilance of the men and women of the US Border Patrol,” added Chavez.

“We will continue to work with our federal and international partners to share information to stop the flow of those who seek to unlawfully circumvent our nations’ immigration policies,” he also said. All told, border agents in Laredo, Texas, apprehended 668 Bangladeshi migrants — who paid up to $27,000 each to cross into the United States by...
