Breitbart.com editor Jerome Hudson delivers the red pills his readers know him for, showing you the facts, statistics, and analysis that the mainstream media have worked so hard to hide



Description:



If you heard that one president deported more people than any other president, started the program of family separation, and did nothing to stop Russia's election meddling, how many of them would guess it was Obama?



In 50 Things They Don't Want You to Know Jerome Hudson dives deeply into the things Americans are not supposed to realize. Many of our most hotly debate topics are shaped by Davos power brokers, woke college professors, TV talking heads, social media activists and feckless Washington swamp monsters who want you to only follow their narrative.



Your teachers, your politicians, and your local paper are not likely to ever tell you:



Racial minorities fare far better in the absence of race-based affirmative action policies.

Latinos make up a little more than 50% of the Border Patrol, according to 2016 data.

The U.S. settled more refugees in 2017 than any other nation.

Between 2011 and 2016, the IRS documented 1.3 million identity thefts by Illegal aliens.

Half of federal arrests are immigration-related.

Welfare recipients in 34 states earn more than a person making minimum wage.

Taxpayers doled out $2.6 billion in food stamps to dead people in less than two years.

1,700 private jets flew to Davos to discuss the impact of global warming.

Google could swing an election by secretly adjusting its search algorithm, and we would have no way of knowing.

Once you're done reading 50 Things They Don't Want You to Know, you'll never trust the powers that be to give you the whole truth again.

Follow the money, find the truth. That's Michelle Malkin's journalistic mantra, and in her stunning new book, Open Borders Inc., she puts it to work with a shocking, comprehensive exposé of who's behind our immigration crisis.



In the name of compassion—but driven by financial profit—globalist elites, Silicon Valley, and the radical Left are conspiring to undo the rule of law, subvert our homeland security, shut down free speech, and make gobs of money off the backs of illegal aliens, refugees, and low-wage guest workers.



Politicians want cheap votes or cheap labor. Church leaders want pew-fillers and collection plate donors. Social justice militants, working with corporate America, want to silence free speech they deem "hateful," while raking in tens of millions of dollars promoting mass, uncontrolled immigration both legal and illegal.



Malkin names names—from Pope Francis to George Clooney, from George Soros to the Koch brothers, from Jack Dorsey to Tim Cook and Mark Zuckerberg. Enlightening as it is infuriating, Open Borders Inc. reveals the powerful forces working to erase America.



Review

"Michelle Malkin has the courage and clarity of vision to articulate exactly what needs to be said and done about America's immigration crisis.... Best of all, she offers a Border Defenders Action Plan for those who are determined to protect and defend America as a free and peaceful society." -- ROBERT SPENCER, author of the bestsellers The History of Jihad and The Politically Incorrect Guide to Islam (and the Crusades)



"With trademark Malkin ferocity, Open Borders Inc. promises readers an unflinching look at the players who are bankrolling the fight for open borders." -- ROY BECK, founder of NumbersUSA Action



"Michelle Malkin brings us hard-hitting facts and incisive analysis—all thoroughly documented.... Essential reading." -- CHRISTOPHER J. FARRELL, Director of Investigations & Research, Judicial Watch



"With Open Borders Inc., Malkin uses her skill as one of the few effective, veteran investigative journalists on the right to issue one final clarion call on behalf of We the People." -- DANIEL HOROWITZ, author of Stolen Sovereignty



"Michelle Malkin is not a pretty little Filipino girl. That's just what she looks like. Her personality is more like Charles Bronson in Death Wish. When the alt-left's chant of 'No borders—No Wall—No USA at all' went mainstream, Michelle went ballistic, and this book is a veritable reball of finely tuned arguments that beautifully counter the new wave of anti- Americanism. If any book could save America from itself, this is it." -- GAVIN McINNES, co-founder of VICE, founder of the Proud Boys, host of FreeSpeech.TV

From Wikipedia

Confessions of an Economic Hit Man is a partly autobiographical book written by John Perkins published in 2004. It provides Perkins' account of his career with engineering consulting firm Chas. T. Main in Boston. According to Perkins, his job at Main was to convince leaders of underdeveloped countries to accept substantial development loans for large construction and engineering projects that would primarily help the richest families and local elites, rather than the poor, while making sure that these projects were contracted to U.S. companies. Later these loans would give the U.S. political influence and access to natural resources for U.S. companies.[1] He characterizes his role as being an "economic hit man." Although he states that throughout his career he has always worked for private companies, and suggests a system of corporatocracy and greed, rather than a single conspiracy, he claims the involvement of the National Security Agency (NSA), with whom he had interviewed for a job before joining Main. According to the author, this interview effectively constituted an independent screening which led to his subsequent hiring as an economic hit man by Einar Greve,[2] a vice president of the firm (and alleged NSA liaison).

I saw much of this sort of thing in the 70s and 80s with family members doing the same work knowingly but probably unknowingly so it wasn't a complete shock but I appreciated someone actually saying it outloud and drawing the connections.

Seems like it would be one of those books you cannnot put down once you start reading. China is doing the same thing throughout the developing world.



And by the way, it is good to see you here again.

1 - Be proactive



Take responsibility for your reaction to your experiences, take the initiative to respond positively and improve the situation. Recognize your Circle of Influence and Circle of Concern. Focus your responses and initiates on the center of your influence and constantly work to expand it. Don't sit and wait in a reactive mode, waiting for problems to happen (Circle of Concern) before taking action.



2 - Begin with the end in mind - I practice this consistenly.



Envision what you want in the future so you can work and plan towards it. Understand how people make decisions in their life. To be effective you need to act based on principles and constantly review your mission statement. Are you - right now - who you want to be? What do I have to say about myself? How do you want to be remembered? If habit 1 advises changing your life to act and be proactive, habit 2 advises that you are the programmer! Grow and stay humble.



All things are created twice. Before we act, we should act in our minds first. Before we create something, we measure twice. This is what the principle is about. Do not just act; think first: Is this how I want it to go, and are these the correct consequences?



3 - Put first things first



Matrix of importance vs urgency that Stephen Covey and Dwight D. Eisenhower used in deciding where to invest their efforts.

Talks about difference between leadership and management. Leadership in the outside world begins with personal vision and personal leadership. Talks about what is important and what is urgent. Priority should be given in the following order (in brackets are the corresponding actions from the Eisenhower Matrix):



Quadrant I. Urgent and important (Do) – important deadlines and crises

Quadrant II. Not urgent but important (Plan) – long-term development

Quadrant III. Urgent but not important (Delegate) – distractions with deadlines

Quadrant IV. Not urgent and not important (Eliminate) – frivolous distractions



The order is important; after completing items in quadrant I, we should spend the majority of our time on II, but many people spend too much time in III and IV. The calls to delegate and eliminate are effective reminders of their relative priority.

If habit 2 advises that you are the programmer, habit 3 advises: write the program, become a leader! Keep personal integrity: what you say vs what you do.



4 - Think win-win



Genuine feelings for mutually beneficial solutions or agreements in your relationships. Value and respect people by understanding a "win" for all is ultimately a better long-term resolution than if only one person in the situation had gotten their way. Think Win-Win isn't about being nice, nor is it a quick-fix technique. It is a character-based code for human interaction and collaboration.



5 - Seek first to understand, then to be understood



Use empathetic listening to genuinely understand a person, which compels them to reciprocate the listening and take an open mind to be influenced by you. This creates an atmosphere of caring, and positive problem-solving.

Habit 5 is greatly embraced in the Greek philosophy represented by 3 words:



1) Ethos -- your personal credibility. It's the trust that you inspire, your Emotional Bank Account.

2) Pathos is the empathetic side -- it's the alignment with the emotional trust of another person's communication.

3) Logos is the logic -- the reasoning part of the presentation.

The order is important: ethos, pathos, logos -- your character, and your relationships, and then the logic of your presentation.



6 - Synergize!



Combine the strengths of people through positive teamwork, so as to achieve goals that no one could have done alone.



7 - Sharpen the Saw; Growth



Balance and renew your resources, energy, and health to create a sustainable, long-term, effective lifestyle. It primarily emphasizes exercise for physical renewal, good prayer (meditation, yoga, etc.) and good reading for mental renewal. It also mentions service to society for spiritual renewal.

In 1776, the colonists declared Independence from England in large part due to the many onerous Acts thrust upon them by Parliament including the Stamp Act in 1765 the Tea Act in 1773. The combination of these burdensome Acts on the colonies coupled with "Intolerable Acts" that severely limited the colonists Liberties, America rebelled. America won her liberty finally in 1783, only to see American's freedoms put in a permanent state of peril with the successful progressive class warfare argument that resulted in the 16th Amendment in 1913.



Politicians and government bureaucrats discovered, is they can manipulate the 71,000+ page tax code to reward their cronies and punish their enemies.



The legacy of the IRS is one of scandals, malfeasance, criminality, incompetence and terror – yet Americans, for the most part tolerate it. Why? The history of IRS abuses of common citizens is legendary, and the stories you will read in this book are chilling.



Why has the IRS become "weaponized", spending $11 million on guns and ammo in the last 10 years?  Surely Patrick Henry, Thomas Jefferson and Samuel Adams would have never let such an abusive form of government exist in the United States. Why do we?

I remember this happening. Shelves were empty of ammo here due to manufacture demand under government contract.
