US: The Koch brothers, who back immigration and cheap labor, are working aggressively to push amnesty for 3.5-million illegal aliens who are enrolled and eligible for President Obama’s Deferred Action for Childhood Arrivals (DACA) program. In addition to DACA, they also are pushing for prison release and so-called free trade during the lame duck session of Congress before House Democrats are handed the majority in the new year. The Koch brothers have said they oppose President Trump’s plan to end chain migration that allows newly naturalized citizens are allowed to bring an unlimited number of foreign relatives to the country. The Koch brothers also support the anchor baby policy of birthright citizenship. -GEG...Continue article here
New Amazon Facility to Be Built Near Congress in Order to Influence Lawmakers and Keep Its Monopoly
Jeff Bezos, the founder of Amazon, which is worth $200 billion, made two deals that will net $2 billion in taxpayer-funded subsidies: New York will extend tax breaks of $1.525 billion in exchange for building a large facility and providing 25,000 jobs high-paying jobs, and Virginia offered Amazon $573 million in exchange for a guarantee of 25,000 jobs. In n 2017, Amazon made $5.6 billion in profit and paid zero in federal income tax, and received a $137 million tax refund!
.
Brian Brenberg, associate professor of business and economics at The King’s College says that Bezos chose Virginia to cozy up to the rule makers in Congress so that they will give him huge tax breaks, which will put Amazon in a position where it can fend off competition for years to come. Bezos has already invested $13 million with 100 lobbyists, and he will have 25,000 new employees in Virginia available as boots on the ground to wield influence in the halls of power. Professor Brenberg says that Bezos’ goal is to stave off competition by writing the regulations, as Amazon depends on political favoritism to stay on top...Continue article here

Trump’s New Restrictions on Asylum Seekers that Requires Them to Wait in Line Is Challenged by ACLU and SPLC
Last week, in an effort to stop the flood of migrants seeking economic benefit, President Trump signed an order to halt asylum claims made by people who illegally cross the US border with Mexico. In the past fiscal year, 140,000 migrants from Central and South America have entered the US illegally! Trump’s new rule requires migrants to make asylum claims at official points of entry where “they would be processed in a controlled, orderly, and lawful manner.” The migrants will be funneled into the crowded entry points, with the hope that the long waits will discourage them, and they will apply for asylum in Mexico instead. Mark Krikorian from the Center for Immigration Studies says that migrants who are unable to get the asylum hearing that they seek, will likely be processed and released into the US, which is their goal.
As expected, Trump’s order has been challenged. The American Civil Liberties Union (ACLU), Southern Poverty Law Center (SPLC) and Center for Constitutional Rights (CCR) is violating immigration law as well as the federal statute that governs the way administrative agencies can issue rules.
Trump has ordered thousands of additional troops to the US-Mexico border to offer support for border patrol agents in addition to more national guard troops who were dispatched to the border earlier in the year...Continue article here
Greece: NGO Is Caught On Camera Admitting It Teaches Migrants to Lie and “Pretend to Be Christian” to Enter Europe Under False Pretenses
Greece: Ariel Ricker, CEO and founder of Advocates Abroad, a pro-immigration NGO that helps migrants enter Europe by providing legal aid and preparing (coaching) the migrants to lie in their asylum interviews. In the shocking undercover video, Ricker says that the asylum process is simply theater. She admits to teaching the migrants how to cry, to “act the part” of the refugee in trauma and even vomit to show extreme emotion. She revealed that she teaches the migrants to pretend to be Christian — and how to pretend to pray. Ricker even admitted that her NGO is involved with human smugglers! Advocates Abroad is linked with the international lawyers’ Bar Association, and has 380 staff members who worked with over 15,000 refugees in 2017. ..Continue article here
