NY Times For Illegal Aliens Wishing Death On Jews And Americans

I mean, it really is playing to the far left moonbat base. First, though, consider this by John Kass

HOW THE NEW YORK TIMES IS KILLING AMERICA

When I was starting out as a Chicago City Hall reporter for that big metropolitan paper—when we could smoke in newsrooms on deadline, curse, tell jokes, laugh and wore jackets and ties to work—I had one rule.

I’d often discuss this rule with my political sources, elected officials, cops, city workers and others:

Lie to me just once, just once, and I’ll burn you to the ground. (long, long snip of people lying to him and burning them)

But in the 21st Century an amazing thing happened to the media. Even as they mouthed their cliches about “speaking truth to power,” America’s corporate media began to openly revel at their participation in the power structure alongside their classmates and elites in the increasingly dominant managerial class. They became the willful tip of the spear for Deep State censorship and misinformation operations against populist challenges.

The Chicago political world was all about accountability not to the people, but to their fellow warlords. But the New York Times was accountable to no one.

Because of its dominant position in corporate journalism, the New York Times has never been held accountable. It leverages corporate media but has never taken responsibility for misinformation and malfeasance. The newspaper’s lies have been rewarded with dominant market position and those Pulitzer Prizes based on lies were wrapped adulation based on fear.

It’s worth the read for the entire thing. Let’s go to this at the Times

Immigrants and Freedom of Speech

The Trump administration has tried in recent weeks to deport several immigrants who spoke out against Israel. First, it arrested Mahmoud Khalil, a green-card holder who’d joined pro-Palestinian protests at Columbia University. Officials also arrested a Georgetown University researcher with an academic visa. They deported a nephrologist at Brown University, even though she had a valid visa. Another student activist at Columbia fled to Canada after immigration officials came to her home.

President Trump has said that more arrests will come — a test of the government’s ability to deport people with views that he disagrees with.

How is this legal? The First Amendment, after all, protects freedom of speech in nearly absolute terms. It allows people to espouse even the most unsavory views, including support for genocide, and face no criminal penalty as a result.

I have to wonder, how many moonbats will stop reading and go “yeah, all those visa holders deserve free speech!” Of course, German Lopez has been taking the side of the violent Palestinians and their wanting to kill Jews for a while now, so, he fails to mention that the visa holders (they are not immigrants) have advocated for killing Jews and Americans, destroying America, Israel, and the West, and have abused other students who were Jews, along with illegally taking over campus buildings. But, hey, what’s this

The Supreme Court has said that the First Amendment applies to noncitizens in the United States when it comes to criminal and civil penalties. But those protections don’t necessarily apply to deportations, the court has found. The federal government has nearly absolute power over immigration, including its ability to deport noncitizens; it gets to decide who comes and then stays in this country, potentially at the expense of constitutional rights.

In 1952, for example, the Supreme Court ruled that the government could deport immigrants for Communist Party membership without violating the First Amendment. (I experienced this firsthand: A government official asked me if I was a communist during my interview to become a U.S. citizen in the 2000s.)

So, yeah, all those Islamists on visas can have their legal status revoked and repatriated to their shithole jihadi countries.

This approach leaves immigrants with no practical free speech rights, Nadine Strossen, former president of the A.C.L.U., told me. The First Amendment allows us to speak freely without fear of legal retribution. But if an immigrant’s political advocacy gets him deported, he does have to worry about retribution — and may choose not to speak at all.

They are guests in the United States: wishing death on people is rather frowned upon, and should end with deportation in every case. When you are visiting someone’s house don’t be an asshole. Same when you visit the U.S.

In the meantime, immigrants have reason to worry. Already, college officials have warned immigrant students that nobody can protect them. In that sense, the Trump administration’s approach is already working: It has likely persuaded immigrants to stay quiet about causes that the president disagrees with.

I’m fine if Trump disagrees with wishing death on Jews and Americans.
