“It is better for all the world, if instead of waiting to execute degenerate offspring for crime or to let them starve for their imbecility, society can prevent those who are manifestly unfit from continuing their kind… Three generations of imbeciles are enough.”

— U.S. Court Justice Oliver Wendell Holmes

Lothrop Stoddard provides a simple two-part explainer on assimilation, however much assimilation exists:
Any attempt to accept an alien must mean their accepting of us, not our one-sided excepting for them, and for anyone who cannot fit, don't try to make them fit. Being alien is a state of mind, and mind is often a product of blood.

In discussions of fertility and natality, society must be reminded that sexuality brings meaning to both. Unless you lean in to the nature of men, birthrate is only a number. Sir Francis Galton advocated a societal effort of investment into young boys, to help the promising and fit excel without being ground down by mundane and menial life in his prime years.

What we now spend on welfare ought to go to the well-being of youth; couples and the life-affirming fun they wish to have. Taking a page from Francis Bacon, the teenage girl and the young man are our living forms of meaningful civilisation.

To encourage their meeting and elevate the instincts of young men to a point of pride, I believe is the most important thing. Between the revolution of Cromwell, rise of National Socialism or conquest of America a youthful spirit was the power behind historic change.

Today the United States Supreme Court hears arguments for President Trump's attempt to end birthright citizenship in America, and I am reminded of what lesson we learn from the Constitution itself: To Ourselves and Our Posterity is owed the blessings of this country.

A law which allows an influx of all kinds with ties of no kind to come here and become equal to Americans is no law Americans should keep. The very soul of the nation and structure of the country falls to this affront to common sense.

Ending this legal abomination would be the most consequential act a president has ever accomplished to spare future generations the suffering of a crowded diversity in a careless country.

Madison Grant compares the fall of Rome to the faults of America: grant citizenship to the descendants of imported inferiors who have no intent or capacity to maintain your country, and see the state become ruined.

We have sold our birthright in a continent for 'labour and luxury' yet enjoy neither.

It was at the least a thought that the mysteries of America, the urgencies of the national itch to dominate the world, the contrasts and harsh comedies of race and war and pollution, the schizophrenia of the land growing more Faustian, all the incomprehensible contradictions of America might yet come to focus on the possibility that races were at war in America like forces from the cosmos, and it was no accident we were on our way first to the moon...

The function of the Wasp had not been to create Protestantism, capitalism, the corporation; he emerged from human history in order to take us to the stars. How else to account for that strong, severe, hell-raising, hypocritical, ideologically simple, patriotic, stingy, greedy, God-fearing, nature-despoiling, sense-destroying, logic-making, technology-deploying, brave human machine of a Wasp?

Norman Mailer's reflection on America's achievement of being first to reach out and touch the Moon, above all humanity.

Through 1900 to 1924, states spent up to 30% of our rightful funds on foreigners. 1st and 2nd gen immigrants filled 45% of jails, charitable housing and hospitals.

Robert D.C. Ward, who helped pass the 1924 immigratiom restriction law, said we must round up and remove 'all public charges and worse' or risk America becoming the world's insane asylum. The road to recovery is winding but the words and works of past heroes may guide us.

Is New York No Longer American?, 1923

A traveler is dismayed by the growing alien presence, the anti-American news and aggressive immigrant activity taking over the city. As Lovecraft felt, one could not see 'an Anglo or American face' block for block. The melting pot dross is consuming up taxes, crowding out taxpayers and crushing rightful citizens.

But the writer leaves a positive note at the end: The city may come back to its glory, when we make it fit to hold American families once again.

Few appreciate what a fight it can be to steer such a massive, confused ship as the federal government the right way.

It took 5 adminstrations, spanning from 1894 to 1917, for America to finally pass an immigration bill with a sufficient literacy requirement and a travel ban.  Prescott F. Hall fought for 30 years to make this happen, including a total ban on almost all of Asia in the final act, but it then took another 7 years for the 1924 law to pass. Prescott F. Hall passed away a hero in 1921, before seeing it all come together. Remember this today.

White flight by work plight:

Across our coasts, in Hawaii, California, Washington and later Boston, Asians would take up job positions by accepting as little as 1/3 to 1/2 the wage of White Americans, then strike to demand higher pay, causing White flight until the areas became majority Asian.

This process was replicated after the immigration act of 1990, by Ted Kennedy, which expanded our door to let in waves of 'foreign students', H-1Bs and their families, the parents and children of whom mostly vote Democrat to sustain the replacement. While Hispanics are the largest invading group, Asians make up the fast-growing foreign population.

A congressman quoting Teddy Roosevelt during arguments over the immigration restriction effort in 1924: “We should never admit any merely because there is need of labor. Better run short of labor than foul or dilute the body of citizenship into which our children are to enter. ... Our aim should be to admit only immigrants whose grandchildren will be fit to intermarry our grandchildren.”

‘An America of 60 million would have been ideal for good life and prosperity. Restriction of immigration is a vital necessity, unless we want to accept an asiatic living standard and to allow Americans to be replaced by aliens. A diverse population would interfere with national action and decrease the efficiency of our national government, as mixed populations and cultures have already done in many of our cities’

Madison Grant wrote, 1925.

‘Deport all aliens who have entered illegally, who become burdens or who engage in anti-social activities, and limit Naturalization, do not encourage it.’

Basic rules of immigration administration and law enforcement that we should follow to curb demographic replacement, detailed by Madison Grant in 1925.

Trump: "Before America had a country, we had a culture and creed. It came from a mighty kingdom across the sea. Before the Revolution, this land was settled by men and women who bore in their souls the blood and noble spirit of the British. Here on a wild and untamed continent, they set loose the ancient English love of liberty and the Great Britain's distinctive sense of glory, destiny, and pride."

...

"In recent years, we've often heard it said that America is merely an idea, but the cause of freedom did not simply appear as an intellectual invention of 1776; the American founding was the culmination of hundreds of years of thought, struggle, sweat, blood, and sacrifice - on both sides of the Atlantic."

President Trump is essentially the first president and prominent politician after WW2 to acknowledge this for us.

During a visit from the King, in America's 250th year since its Independence was Declared, President Trump spoke of the blood and bodies that bind America to Britain, echoing our Founding Fathers:

As Trump said America is the result of centuries of struggle and blood on both sides of the Atlantic, Benjamin Franklin wrote that America is an ascension of English power across seas. When President Trump recognised American freedom and morals as a perfection of Anglo-Saxon liberties, we recall Thomas Jefferson affirm that America's roots are none other than an English Constitution.

These ties foreigners may try to erase but the truths no falsehood can replace—America's origins are alive and it is very good to have a leader acknowledge it today, and people fight for it forever.

"America is not an experiment in government." Ours is not a tentative plan of governmental organization, subject to variation and modification or even criticism by new comers.

Our form of government ... was fixed and settled more than a hundred years ago, and the principles formulated at the time of its foundation are far older, extending back throughout English history. Our institutions are Anglo-Saxon.

America For The Americans, Madison Grant, 1925

Italian Immigrant Gino Speranza, in Race or Nation: 

I shall stress the fundamentally Anglo-Saxon and protestant character of American civilization because upon it rests, historically and philosophically, the principle of self-government in all things, political, moral and intellectual. It is distinctly this Anglo-Saxon and protestant character which makes government of and by the people...

There is a tendency in certain New-Stock ‘‘intellectuals,’’ aided and abetted by ‘‘internationally-minded’’ Americans, to theorize about a future amalgamated or mongrelized Americanism ... a  United States composed of racial groups living side by side ... I, for one, am against this. I am not, even remotely, of Anglo-Saxon or Nordic stock. But the task and the call for us all—Old Stock and New—must be to keep America as it was, and, as I pray with all my mind and heart, it may ever be.

Of naturalization laws in the 18c., Rep. Sitgreaves approved limits that would deter aliens from becoming citizens, and avoid us the shame of them taking office.

Rep. Bayard said whatever we grant a foreigner should be easily revoked, and they should have no right to complain.

James Madison had said, “I do not wish that any man should acquire the privilege [of citizenship and rights] [unless he] would be a real addition to the wealth and strength of the United States.”
