I DO NOT SEE a Problem With Illegal Aliens Invading the USA. In ACTUAL REALITY I Have NOT Noticed any Increase of People from South of the Border. I Believe it's all Just HATESPEECH ON TV in order to Re-Elect tRUMP. It's All a Made Up "Crisis."

What I DO SEE as a Real Problem is the Stock Market Crashing. The DJIA has been Swinging Wildly these last few weeks... One Day it's Up, the Next Day It's Down... but the General Effect is that American Businesses are Worth Less and Less. While "The Invasion" from Central America is Truly Fake News... Me losing my Life Savings due to tRUMP's Bonehead Trade War CONCERNS ME.

Another thing that is of Interest is the Republicrime Plan for Cutting Social Security and Medicare. They keep on giving MASSIVE Tax Cuts to the Rich and Want to Pay for it by Cutting Money from Millions of Americans. It's a "Reverse Robin Hood" Plan. Take from the Poor and Give to the Rich. tRUMP's Tax Cut Allowed Amazon to Pay ZERO TAXES. WTF?

Wildfires in California are Important. I Look outside and See that the Trees in My Backyard are Dry and Thirsty. Ready to Burn. All it takes is a Spark and My Whole Neighborhood Will Be UP in Flame... Lightning or Arson or PG&E Failure to keep Trees away from Power Lines... We Have Not Learned the Lesson from the Fires in Paradise, Santa Rosa and Redding... What We Need To Do is Bring Home all the People, Airplanes and Helicopters Currently Stationed in Afghanistan, Syria and Iraq. Use them to Drop Water on Wildfires. I Bet all those Soldiers would be Happier Protecting America. As they Say: "Support the Troops, Bring 'em Home"

However... In Reality... tRUMP "Shoots Himself in the Foot" with his FAKE National Emergency that the VAST Majority of Americans Do Not Want... NO WALL...


Hatred for Latinos does not sell with Most People... He can Scream "Danger Danger" but WE THE PEOPLE are not fooled... Actual Arrests of People coming over the Border with Mexico are at a 20 YEAR LOW... More Latino People are Moving from the USA to Mexico than are Coming in...

There IS NO NATIONAL EMERGENCY... It's all just Racism...

WALLS ALWAYS FAIL...

The Great Wall of China FAILED to keep the Chinese Out. Look at a Map. The wall is in the middle of the country... Chinese People Live On Both Sides!

The Berlin Wall, FAILED To keep the East Germans In... As President Reagan said: "Mr Gorbachev, Tear Down This Wall."

Hadrian's Wall FAILED to keep the Scottish People out of England. The Romans built that wall and then they ran back home to Italy.

The Only WALL that was Successful was Pink Floyd's...

tRUMP'S Wall is about 260 years too late... Mexicans Colonized California starting in 1760... Father Junipero Serra built Missions starting in San Diego (Saint Douglas) all the Way to San Francisco (Saint Francis of Assisi)... all the Towns have Mexican Names... Los Angeles (The Angels), Sacramento (The Sacrament), San Jose (Saint Joseph), Los Gatos (The Cats).... White People didn't move to California until 1849 when Gold was Discovered and then the USA stole All the Land from Mexico... Originally Mexicans Owned Colorado, Texas, Arizona, Florida, New Mexico, Nevada...

We have been living with Mexicans for Hundreds of Years... Peacefully... This SPANISH PANIC of tRUMP's is ABSURD...

Ever hear the Song SPANISH PANIC from the Musical "Once Upon a Mattress"?

Trump's Border Wall is DOOMED TO FAIL. It's 260 Years Too Late. Mexicans "Invaded" California in 1760... They Founded the Town of Saint Douglas (San Diego)... Then they Founded the City of the Angels (Los Angeles)... The Colorful State (Colorado), The Flowery State (Florida) and the Snowy State (Nevada)...

Trump's Border Wall is also DOOMED because people FLY over it in Airplanes, Sail Around it in Boats and Drive Thru at Checkpoints using Fake ID... What's to prevent a person from Mailing a California Driver Licence to Tijuana? Then a Person that LOOKS SIMILAR presents it at the Crossing at San Ysidro... A Walls won't prevent Identity Fraud... Remember this: The Great Wall of China FAILED to Keep the Chinese Out... There are Chinese on BOTH SIDES of that wall.

How do you build a wall on a RIVER? The Great River (Rio Grande) divides the State of TEJAS (Texas) from Mexico...

The OTHER MAIN FLAW with Trump's Border Wall is that Latino People are Not That Scary. I was born in the City of Saint Joseph (San Jose) and about half the people are Hispanic... For example: My Hero in Junior High School was an Elegant Man Named Isidro M... He was the Basketball Coach... On my Facebook Group of Alumni from The Cats High School (Los Gatos) everyone agreed that he was a LOVED and RESPECTED Teacher...

Why would you want to build a wall between the USA and Mexico when Mexicans are nice people? Perhaps Trump was Mugged by Puerto Ricans when he was a Child in Queens? Maybe THAT's why he has so much hatred... I remember the Musical "West Side Story" was about rival Street Gangs... One made up of Polish Kids and the Other was Puerto Rican... A famous song was "Maria" and then they Named a Hurricane "Maria" that wiped out the Island Of Puerto Rico... Trump's FEMA Failed Badly to repair Puerto Rico... 

One of the Secrets to the Success of Silicon Valley was that corporate leaders hired smart people from all over the world move to San Jose to work in Computers... My Next Door neighbor was from Nicaragua... Who knew that there were Computer Scientists in Nicaragua? IBM did... We also knew a Nazi who came to NASA after WW2...  When I went to work at System Industries in Santa Clara most of the employees were Asian or Hispanic... I had a LOT of Respect for my direct supervisor who was a Harley Davidson Riding Martial Artist... I certainly did what he told me to do... I was afraid of him because he could beat me up... but he never had to because I simply Honored His Wisdom...

An alternative to building a Border Wall between the USA and Mexico is to make the quality of life Better in Mexico and Central America... RETURN WHOLESALE COFFEE PRICES to what they were a Couple of Years Ago SO THEY CAN EARN A LIVING.

Then they wouldn't want to come here. Instead of paying 16 Billion Dollars on a Wall why not spend it on job creation, better education, free birth control and plumbing... Clean drinking water is important! That would make life better. A Wall won't improve anyone's life.

Fall in Coffee Prices Is Fueling Guatemalan Migration to the U.S.: Report...

http://nymag.com/intelligencer/2019/06/coffee-price-drop-fuels-guatemalan-migration-to-u-s-report.html

According to a new report from the Washington Post, a major fall in the price of coffee has cut out a huge income source for Guatemalan farmers, helping to fuel the spike in migration to the United States. Coffee prices have dropped about 60 percent since 2015, from $2.20 per pound in 2015 to a low this year of 86 cents.

Trump dismisses report of smugglers cutting through US-Mexico border wall: 'You can cut through anything'


President Trump on Saturday appeared to shrug off concerns that smugglers may be able to cut through portions of the U.S.-Mexico border wall with ease, as a new report had suggested.


Asked by reporters outside the White House to comment on the matter, Trump conceded that although the border wall was powerful, “you can cut through anything.”

Why Has Trump FAILED So Badly at the US/Mexico Border? He has Done NOTHING to Fix the Real Problem. Low Prices for Coffee Farmers in Central America have CAUSED Those People to Walk North or Starve.

Obviously, Building a Wall Just FAILS... The Greed of Coffee Import Corporations Have Caused the Immigration Crisis. While there has been NO PRICE DECREASE in the cost Consumers Pay for a cup of Coffee, or a Pound... The Farmers are Getting HALF of what they got a Few Years Ago. All the Extra Money goes to Corporate Executives and Stockholders. 

Reality is More Important Than the LIES We See on TV. "They" tell You That The Economy is Great. "They" tell you that Consumer Confidence is High. "They" tell you to Keep on Consuming Using Your Credit Cards. "THEY" ARE LYING. Who ARE "They"? Corporations that Buy Advertising Time... Liberty Mutual, Big Pharma!, Monsanto, Humira (a drug company), Sandals Caribbean Resorts (Who can afford a Jamaican Vacation? No One I Know...), Beer Companies, Whiskey Companies, Car Companies, Truck Companies, Insurance Companies... Why would anyone trust Those _____________ (fill in the blank)? I'm especially Annoyed that Liberty Mutual Advertises an "Accident Forgiveness" Policy that is NOT Available in California. The Satellite TV Company KNOWS WHERE I LIVE and Yet they Allow Advertisements that are Obviously False! I Cannot Buy That Product but I Do Feel Warm and Fuzzy about Limu Emu and Doug... Cellphone Companies! Credit Card Companies! 

IF YOU ASK REAL PEOPLE THAT YOU KNOW... REAL PEOPLE are increasingly Becoming Homeless, Committing Suicide, Overdosing on Opioids, More Alcoholism, More Lay Offs, More Businesses Going Bankrupt, More Stores Closing, More Family Farms Vanishing... The Actual Lifespan of Americans is Shorter Now than it Was when Obama was President. The Increase of "Deaths of Despair" has Caused Shorter Average Length of Life. WAKE UP!

"They" tell Us A Lot of Lies... and it's NOT JUST FOX NEWS and TRUMP! CNN and MSNBC also State the Corporate Brainwashing Slogans... For Example: "The Democrats Acknowledge That Trump's Economy is Good." They Say It Every Day... FACTUALLY FALSE. Only People who are Rich Enough to Own Stock are Making Money on the Stock Market. The Vast Majority of Americans Do Not Own Stock... We the People Didn't Benefit from the Tax Cut for the Rich Law... Prices are Higher, Wages are Lower... and... Most Good Jobs Have Vanished. Now we have the So Called "Gig" Economy where people actually have the Wonderful Opportunity to work for less than minimum wage... You are Self Employed! WHEE! No Benefits... No Health Care, No Vacation, No Sick Leave, No Labor Unions, No Retirement... A generation Ago a Person Could Assemble Cars at $30 Per Hour with Benefits and RAISE A FAMILY DOING ONE JOB. Now, all those Factory Jobs went to Mexico and the Orient. and MOST Good Jobs Have Vanished... You Can't Even Get a Job as a Retail Clerk anymore... Amazon Wiped Out Retail... Sears and KMART and Toys R Us have Closed Stores... Yes, You Can Become a Slave for Amazon Picking Products and Putting them in Boxes... BUT That is Intense Labor... Like the old Slavery Song... "Jump Down, Turn Around, Pick a Bale Of Cotton... Jump Down, Turn Around, Pick a Bale of Hay..." They supposedly have Vending Machines that Dispense Free Advil so Employees Do Not Hurt So Much that they Stop Picking Up Products... Pain Interferes With Profits...  

"They" say it's Great to Work for Yourself as an UBER Driver... Until you have an Automobile Accident and then you have a Broken Car, an Injured Body and No Health Insurance... and the more you drive, the more likely you are to have an automobile accident... How do I Know This? I was on the City Bus Talking to a Former UBER Driver who was Going to His Physical Therapy Appointment. All These Events Happened to Him and he was in CONSTANT PAIN... a perfect Victim for an Oxycontin Prescription... 

Even Google Has Bias... They have a tendency to Show Links to Mainstream Media at the Top of the Search Results. Look at Google News... or Youtube... The SOURCES of Content tend to be RELIABLE SOURCES... CNN, MSNBC, New York Times and The Washington Post... FOX... almost NEVER Content by RT(Russian TV Network) or ACT OUT! or Democracy Now! or Free Speech TV or LINK TV or independent Newspapers like The Santa Rosa Times... Or the Berkeley Barb or the Detroit Free Press or the Greenwich Village Other... WHO? Google Shows You a World That Reinforces the Corporate Brainwashing Lies... Yes, it is true that Alternative Opinions Do Show up in Search Results but WAY DOWN IN THE LIST... maybe #12... just far enough so it doesn't show up on the first page... That's Why People Should Use DuckDuckGo or Dogpile for Searching... or Simply Pay Attention to Reality! 

I find that Facebook Groups have Opinions That are Written by People I Know. Real People. I'm a member of "Things I Remember Growing Up in Los Gatos" and Those People are the actual Classmates from School... and Their Opinions are Real... and I still do not agree with the same people I disagreed with in High School... BUT... They are Real... Their Stories Have a Tendency to be Valid, Accurate... We all grew up near San Jose, California and We All moved away because the Price of Buying a House or Renting was too high. So we all have stories to tell about our lives... and That is More Real than "Keeping Up with the Kardashians" or "Jersey Shore" even though those shows are supposedly "Reality TV" - Guess What! They Have Scripts to make it interesting! No Reality There! TOTALLY BOGUS! and the Underlying message is that PEOPLE OUGHT TO Keep Up With The Kardashians... The Corporate Sponsors want you to BELIEVE that Consumption is the Path to Happiness... Did Buddha Charge a Buncha Stuff on his Credit Card? Did Jesus Come to Make Us Rich? 

Low Coffee Prices CAUSE Farmers to Leave Central America and Walk to Texas... or Switch Crops to Cocaine... Yet, NO PRICE Discount to Consumers... Just The Rich Owners of Corporations Benefit...

The low prices have led to coffee growers abandoning their farms in Guatemala while Colombian farmers turned to coca, which is processed into cocaine.

The lowest international coffee prices in a decade are leading many despairing farmers in Central and South America to abandon their farms, fueling fears of an industry crisis. “The volatility is destroying livelihoods,” said John Steel, chief executive of Cafédirect, one of the UK’s first coffee roasters to offer producers Fair Trade pricing which counts Peruvian coffee co-operatives as among its main suppliers. Mr Steel added that farmers were joining migration caravans while elsewhere younger generations were opting out of coffee production in many countries. “If you’re a parent and making a living from coffee, seeing the way [low prices] are impacting the market, it’s not what you want for [your children],” he said.

Why has Trump FAILED at the US/Mexico Border? He Keeps on Talking, Talking, Talking but More and More and More People keep Coming IN! DO SOMETHING, RETARD!

It seems like the ONLY THING Trump is Good at Is Making Excuses and Blaming Someone Else... Prices Higher, Wages Lower, Stock Market Crashing, Suicides Increasing, Opioid Overdoses Increasing, Alcoholism Increasing, Layoffs, Bankruptcies... What a Pile of "Sugar" You Elected. I Didn't Vote for Him... He was Obviously Defective... and I Certainly Didn't Vote for (She Who Shall Not Be Named)... Why has Trump FAILED to Lock Her UP? WHY? Why Has He Failed Again? 

The Average Lifespan of Americans Has Gotten Shorter in the Last Two Years... When OBAMA Was President, People Lived Longer! Trump's Leadership Is Killing Americans! #IMPEACH  

Get a Brain! Morans GUY is Not Amused by Trump's Failures... You Really Elected a Pile of "Sugar!"

We Need Immigrants to Do the Jobs Americans Refuse. We Need Care Givers to Work at Old Folks Homes. We Simply Did Not Have Enough Children to Take Care of the Aging Baby Boomers. We Need Servants... Maids, Gardeners, Carpenters, Farm Workers, Drivers and...

...There are NOT ENOUGH Young People. In the USA, Japan and Europe there is a NEED and That's WHY we have so much Immigration. Everyone moves to where the Jobs are. When I was a Child, we had Braceros that came from Mexico to harvest the crops. California's central valley grows a vast quantity of America's food. I remember that at "Sun Valley Farms" (the flower growers) they all of a sudden had to check green cards for Illegal Aliens. Sun Valley is currently having difficulty finding people to do the work. Young White people take a job and then quit because the work is back breaking labor... and Other employers (like Taco Bell) have better conditions. 

John Carlos Frey book: "Sand and Blood" is about the history of building the wall during the Clinton Presidency. Douglas Hunter (Congressman from San Diego) was a big proponent of Building the Wall. Construction the Wall near Tijuana caused increase of deaths in the desert East of San Diego... Hunter's Brother felt guilty about his action and now places gallons of water in the desert in order to save lives of people walking across the Desert.

Carmalita Torres is the "Rosa Parks" of Mexican Immigration. She Walked across the border every day to work as a maid in Texas. Then the Border Guards started mandatory DE-LOUSING. People were stripped naked and washed with kerosene. EVERY DAY. Carmalita Refused and started a Protest that Closed the Border for a Day. The final effect was that people no longer lived in Mexico and worked in the USA. NOW, once they get over the border, they stay permanently... and their children are Born in the USA... Just like Bruce Springsteen... and are Automatically Citizens. 

John Carlos's Mother was arrested and deported because she did not have her Green Card on her when she was stopped by The Border Patrol. The next day, her husband went to the Tijuana Jail with the Green Card and she was released. All this happened while her young children were watching. "Bad Man Taking Mommy Away." It was a traumatic experience for a child to witness his mother being Kidnapped.

Corporations are making a vast profit housing children in Concentration Camps near the border. $750.00 a Day per child... The Businessmen want more immigrants so they can make more profit. John (the former White House Chief of Staff) is now on the Board of Directors of a Florida Concentration Camp.

Trump Totally Failed to Build the Border Wall. Republicans Controlled the Congress for Two Years But DID NOTHING! and now More people are Coming in From Mexico than Ever!

When will TrumpNiks Get Tired of So Much Failing? 

"The number of border-crossers taken into U.S. custody topped 100,000 for the second consecutive month in April, U.S. border officials said Wednesday, deepening the crisis that has derailed President Trump’s immigration agenda and has defied his myriad attempts to fix it."

Deport Rafael Cruz. Send him Right Back to Where he Came from. You may know him by his "Gang Name:TED" but he goes by that just to confuse Law Enforcement. We need to build a Border Wall from Coast to Coast to Keep those Canadians OUT!

How could Rafael Cruz Run for President when he was born in Calgary, Canada? Don't you have to be Born in the USA?

"Texas Senator Ted Cruz has cleared another hurdle in the presidential race, as the Illinois Board of Elections has ruled he is a natural-born citizen. The board determined that Cruz, who was born in Canada to his American mother and Cuban father, is eligible to become president. “The candidate is a natural born citizen by virtue of being born in Canada to his mother who was a U.S. citizen at the time of his birth,” the board said. It pointed out that Cruz “did not have to take any steps to go through a naturalization process at some point after birth” and therefore “further discussion on this issue is unnecessary.” The board’s ruling was in response to multiple Illinois residents objecting to Cruz’s eligibility, an issue repeatedly pushed by Donald Trump." https://web.archive.org/web/20160204093102/http://national.suntimes.com/national-world-news/7/72/2541002/ted-cruz-illinois-natural-born-citizen/

Another Corrupt Republican: Rep Duncan Hunter made a FAKE Video of Himself Jumping Over the Wall into Mexico. It was NOT the wall, it was a Vehicle Barrier Nearby... Citizens are Outraged because He Cannot Leave the Country due to his Bail Agreement on Fraud Charges... He's a Total Wanker!

The Video shows him PRETENDING to cross the border into Mexico but ACTUALLY shows him Stepping over a Traffic Barrier... He is heard LYING about how the Border Wall is Not tall enough to prevent people from crossing and he demonstrates how easy it is USING A FAKE WALL...

https://www.cnn.com/2019/04/19/politics/duncan-hunter-border-video-violate-bail-agreement/index.html

Rep. Duncan Hunter posted a video Thursday of himself climbing over a barrier that he erroneously calls "the grand border wall" in a move his Democratic opponent initially claimed violated Hunter's bail agreement.

In the video, Hunter claimed to be attempting to cross the border to show how easy it would be. However, the barrier that Hunter crossed was just a vehicle barrier approximately 75-100 feet from the border, according to Border Patrol spokesman Vincent Dulesky, as relayed by the Times of San Diego.

Trump is facing a Republican Revolt over his Fake National Emergency to Fund The Wall... Rand Paul announces He will vote against Trump...

Headline: President Trump is facing a potential revolt among Senate Republicans over his decision to declare a national emergency to construct the U.S.-Mexico border wall.

HOWEVER, Rand Paul often pretends to be the last needed vote and then he wimps out... 

Republican Senators #RUNAWAY from Trump. They Refuse to support "Emergency" to Fund Border Wall Construction... Refuse to ask American Taxpayers to Pay...

Why Didn't they Fund the Wall during Trump's first Two Years? They had control of The House AND the Senate BUT FAILED TO AUTHORIZE PAYMENT... WHY? Because The Majority of Americans DO NOT WANT TO PAY FOR A WALL... It would be Political Suicide to Fund Construction...

Wasn't Mexico Going to Pay For the Wall? PROMISES MADE, PROMISES BROKEN...

The treatment of asylum seekers at our border is beyond inhumane - a direct result of the dehumanizing language Trump and the GOP have been using for years.
But these migrants are just the same as you and me. Human beings fighting for a better life. So we must fight for them.

My Autobiography: Growing Up in Los Gatos, California in the 1960s by Gregory Vanderlaan - and Living in San Jose, Washington DC, Chico, Eureka and Orangevale, CA.

I Was Born in 1954. We lived Near the San Jose Airport until they Started Landing Jet Airplanes and We had to move... We went to Los Gatos in 1960. I lived there until graduation from Los Gatos High School in 1972... an Ideal Childhood... FYI: Los Gatos is about 50 miles South of San Francisco on the edge of the mountains between San Jose and Santa Cruz.

I Went to West Valley Jr. College, learned electronics drafting and got a job at System Industries in Santa Clara... I feel blessed that not only did I grow up in a great location but I also grew up at a great time. I missed the Vietnam War by ONE Year and Silicon Valley Was Hiring Like Crazy When I Needed a Job.
