Gives the lie to the idea that amnesty (“pathway to earned citizenship”) is just a way to be compassionate and allow those who are already here stay while a strong border policy takes hold. No. It’s part and parcel of weakening the border and letting in millions of extra migrants, Biden-style.

“Asserting that opposition to EU immigration policies, for example, is the result of FIMI [foreign information manipulation and interference] which the Commission relentlessly does, allows the EU to delegitimise opposition to said immigration policies.” https://t.co/ujUdXvdDPq

The backdrop is if you were a white affluent kid from Connecticut with good grades, good test scores etc that would have gotten you into an Ivy a decade earlier you had NO CHANCE to get into an Ivy given the squeeze of DEI and legacy admissions. So they tried this workaround out of desperation. A little sympathy please!

Here is Valerie Stivers’ verdict against @TheAtlantic in @unherd: https://t.co/m70tJL9Kxj
“Bottom line: the core of Barrett’s story on niche sports was beyond reproach — and in fact her findings were validated in 2023 by a group of economists at Harvard. And her 1995 reporting was a textbook example of a lost form of hard-hitting investigative reporting. It’s The Atlantic’s failure that it published a true story only to retract it.
“It’s disappointing to see The Atlantic violate its own standards and the standards of journalism to distance itself from Barrett. The original editor’s note appears to have been written not to present a fair portrait, or even the correct facts about Barrett’s history, but in order to align with the publication’s politically motivated and cancel-culture-safe inner truth. The current version of the note does the same thing in even more disjointed fashion. “

Didn’t Ruth Shalit Barrett have this story in a well-read @TheAtlantic piece six years ago? I think she did! Atlantic idiotically chose to unperson it because a fact was changed to protect a source.

It’d be a lot better for GOPs if the election were a referendum on Trump’s immigration policies rather than a referendum on Trump. But the author of this piece seems to want a more presidential-year vision. How about “We want the strong economy for all we’d have if we hadn’t attacked Iran”? https://t.co/5rRkrxkgxU
