Mexican President-elect Andres Manuel Lopez Obrador is planning to create a specialized border force to combat illegal immigration across Mexico’s borders, according to his hand-picked security chief.

The new force is aimed at stanching the flow of illegal immigrants and contraband from Central America and will also be deployed to Mexico’s northern border, Alfonso Durazo said, according to Bloomberg. It is part of Lopez Obrador’s broader strategy against regional violence, corruption and poverty.

No doubt special busses will be provided to carry them straight to the U.S. border.

Seriously, people who indulge in eccentricities of dress or grooming are afflicted with a serious case of Second-Hander Disease (thank you, Ayn Rand). Their whole existence depends far too much on what other people think of them, and have not enough comfort with their own selves. Whenever I see somebody with tattoos or piercings or strange hair colors not found in nature, my brain supplies a chyron that shouts ‘Look at me! Look At Me! LOOK AT ME! I’m a somebody, not a nobody! LOOK AT ME!’. I avoid such people as if they were toxic waste dumps, which psychologically they are.

This piece in Salon, of course, is apologetic in nature and attempts to turn West’s vacuous platitudes into something resembling actual arguments — unsuccessfully, since you can’t make bricks with just cotton wool.

West’s tap-dancing is just a variant of the myriad of folks who explain the fact that socialism has failed every time it’s been tried with the bromide ‘real socialism has never actually been tried’. They feel justified in saying this because they believe, deep down in whatever they use for souls, that (per Marx) there is an inevitable tendency in history toward socialism that will sooner or later result in successful socialism (this is what they mean by being ‘on the right side of history’). So, whenever socialism fails, it’s because it hasn’t really happened yet.

One of the things I find most interesting about this attitude is that Nazis (if you can find one) never say ‘real national socialism has never actually been tried’, nor do fascists (if you can find one that isn’t masquerading as a socialist) say that ‘real fascism has never actually been tried’. Socialists are the only brand of statist that actually stand there bare-faced and say ‘Who are you going to believe, Marx or your lying eyes?’.

When people outside the hive wonder how people in the hive can believe the nonsense about diversity and the blank slate, it is important to keep in mind the power of magical thinking. They want this stuff to be true, so they tend to gravitate toward others who have the same fantasies. It is exactly how cults work. The doubt or concern of one member becomes a reason for the rest to double up on their belief. Progressives are people in search of purpose and identity, so they tend to clump together for support.

One of the more entertaining aspects of the proglodyte Coalition of Perverts is that, like Marxists, they are prone to internal squabbles and (attempted) purges.

Most dismiss the Trump Venezuela story as an example of Trump’s impulsivity on a matter that he does not fully understand. That may be true, although the idea itself is not without reason or precedent. It is also increasingly discussed by the many Venezuelans living in exile or fighting the regime from the inside. 

And ‘most’ are just plain stupid.

Trump is merely being a typical CEO, and asking an obvious question so that his staff are forced to articulate the reasons behind a position that everyone knows at the gut level is correct but that would benefit from bringing all of the data out into the open to be considered explicitly.

The problem here is that most ‘journalists’ are profoundly ignorant of how real-world organizations make decisions. Most of them wouldn’t know a cost-benefit analysis if it pissed on their legs.

It’s almost as if New Yorker readers are profitably assumed to be part of an ideological tribe with as strong territorialist emotions — How dare Bad Guys defile the sacred turf of Berkeley? — as Glasgow soccer hooligans beating tourists from Milan.

But if you were as lucid as, say, Berkeley professor Judith Butler, you’d understand that Good Guys are Good. The masked vigilante Antifa Black Bloc might look like thugs, but they are Our Thugs, and that’s what counts.

Berkeley’s turf is sacred not because of some principle made about Free Speech in the 1960s but because that’s where Our Team beat Your Team. And the fact that Your Team is now appealing to the logic of Our Team’s rationalization of our triumph to contest our control of our turf just proves you are the Bad Guys.

The Framers’ held a misplaced faith in the Constitution’s checks and balances (see Madison’s Federalist No. 51 and Hamilton’s Federalist No. 81). The Constitution’s wonderful design — containment of a strictly limited central government through horizontal and vertical separation of powers — worked rather well until the Progressive Era. The design then cracked under the strain of greed and the will to power, as the central government began to impose national economic regulation at the behest of muckrakers and do-gooders. The design then broke during the New Deal, which opened the floodgates to violations of constitutional restraint (e.g., Medicare, Medicaid, Obamacare,  the vast expansion of economic regulation, and the destruction of civilizing social norms), as the Supreme Court has enabled the national government to impose its will in matters far beyond its constitutional remit.

In sum, the “poison pill” baked into the nation at the time of the Founding is human nature, against which no libertarian constitution is proof unless it is enforced resolutely by a benign power.

I would put the inflection point earlier, at the Civil War. The whole question of slavery tends to distract from the equally serious question of federalism, which was every  bit as important as slavery in the origin of the Civil War but which has been buried under layers of puritan moralism on the part of teachers of history since that day. The Civil War changed the United States from a federal union of states with real power to a unitary state in which the ‘states’ were merely provinces, a process that has been ongoing from that day to this. Proglodytes have been working on having everything run from Washington since Teddy Roosevelt’s day, and the increasing globalization of the economy has allowed them to leverage the Commerce Clause of the Constitution into the chains of Federal regulation under which we suffer in our daily lives.

A Richmond, Virginia, bookstore owner said he called the police on Saturday after former White House chief strategist Steve Bannon was confronted in his store.

Nick Cooke, owner of Black Swan Books, told The Richmond Times-Dispatch that a woman called Bannon a “piece of trash.”

The woman then left the store after Cooke said he called 911.

“Steve Bannon was simply standing, looking at books, minding his own business. I asked her to leave, and she wouldn’t. And I said, ‘I’m going to call the police if you don’t,’ and I went to call the police and she left,” Cooke said. “And that’s the end of the story.”

With pieces of trash like Maxine Waters publicly calling for such confrontations, I suspect that we will see more similar incidents.
