Is Minnesota’s welcome mat still out for refugees?

Posted on Leave a comment

That is the question that the Twin Cities Pioneer Press seeks to answer in a longish article published yesterday. (Was it ever really out, or were Minnesotans kept in the dark and never asked?) Employing a technique we have become accustomed to seeing, reporter Bob Shaw uses a family as his ‘poster family’ that seems..

And, yippee it is ahead of schedule as we once again lead the world in helping the United Nations clean out camps around the globe! Coming to America thanks to the UN! I think what is happening here is that since the Obama Administration promised a few years ago to admit 50,000 from the DR..

GAO says climate of “fear” in chicken plants where refugee workers are part of the workforce

Posted on Leave a comment

We have been reporting for years about the meatpacking industry, what we call BIG MEAT and BIG CHICKEN, having discovered the great advantages of hiring immigrant and refugee laborers (foreign-born the GAO calls them) who will work for lower wages (this industry once did pay good wages) and complain less than American workers who understand..

Posted on Leave a comment

And, it sure must be a welcome donation as the federal funds that most of the nine live off of are drying up.

Politifact: There is no way to get at the true cost of resettling refugees in the US

Posted on Leave a comment

This is a story I missed in September right after the President spoke at the UN General Assembly.  Thanks to reader Brenda for sending it our way. We know this is true and it has been frustrating over the years when I’ve been unable to tell readers exactly what it does cost the US and..

RCUSA, lobbying arm of refugee industry, tracks refugee numbers to shame Trump

Posted on Leave a comment

I’ve told you about the Refugee Council USA many times. It is the consortium of groups that includes the nine federal resettlement contractors that pressures policy makers in Washington, DC. Back in 2015 they were clamoring for 200,000 refugees to be admitted to the US in one year! Most recently they joined with CAIR to..

Arrogant Church World Service closes doors in Poughkeepsie

The Atlantic contributing editor, Peter Beinart, wants taxpayers to fund special cemeteries for Muslims

Posted on Leave a comment

In his hilarious screed I reported here, Beinart says in critical tones that I (“anti-Muslim bigot” Ann Corcoran) oppose Muslim refugee’s efforts to require “local government to pay for a Muslim cemetery.” Don’t you? Learn more about Beinart here at Horowitz’s Discover the Networks.  He gets a lengthy page all for himself:  http://www.discoverthenetworks.org/individualProfile.asp?indid=2739 In so..

Dramatic drop in number of refugees entering the US in first 2 months of fiscal year

Posted on Leave a comment

The President now has completed the first two months of what will be his first full year in admitting refugees to the US and we see numbers are dramatically lower.  In fact they are so low that if the present pace continues until the end of the fiscal year, September 30th, less than 20,000 could..
