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.”

From 1830-1850 several cities and states revealed that immigrants took up half or more of public charity, institution space and criminal convictions despite being a small fraction of the total population.

In New York as much as three-fourths of the poor were foreigners and two-thirds of the criminally convicted the same, during different decades. In the great wealth of Massachusetts over years up to two-thirds of people consuming public help were foreigners. This trend was true in New Orleans, Pennsylvania, so on, all recorded before the Civil War.

This was during a time of a far smaller invasion than the Mass Migration of 1865-1924 or 1965-2024, periods of even worse immigrant stock, indicating that immigration has overwhelmingly been a negative for America for all time, as many founding fathers predicted it would be.

States and cities had passed laws of their own to manage the ever-pressing issue of importation, the in-migration of other people, but it was in 1819 that the first act to better regulate travel passed. A Steerage Act concerning the conditions and demographics of ships carrying any people toward the country. The decades following saw pieces of legislation come and go to address the entry of prostitutes and paupers and people easy to bar, but problems continued to come.

It wasn't until 1882 that America finally got its grips, after the cracks had become so deep, that an immigration restriction framework was made. The Act of 1882 imposed a head tax, created a general ban on the undesirable and founded a bureaucratic system to process people. In the same year, the Chinese Exclusion Act became law. But much more had to be done—the invaders were already in the gates, and a new wave was arriving.

‘Under the direction of Stephen Miller, Trump’s top domestic-policy advisor, the Administration has chosen to honor the Sesquicentennial by keeping people from entering the United States, by restricting those who have already done so from becoming full citizens, and by trying to strip naturalized citizens of their legal status,

“If returning the U.S. to 1924 is the goal, the Trump Administration is succeeding.”’

The question of Blacks is less one of what to do and more one of what not to do. What not to do, is bend. Blacks have for a century demanded privilege by delivering violence as the demonstration of their 'need', and by intimidation or incorrect sympathy, or worse intentional subversion, they are given it.

Throughout the 1900s Black rebellions burned down towns and broke the nose of whomever tried to set it right—armed negroes took over capitols and colleges, fighting to earn supposed rights by committing a series of serious wrongs.

Abraham Lincoln himself said in 1958: "What I would most desire would be a separation of the White and black." In 1862: "[The black] race suffers by living among us, and our race suffers [from their] presence ... we should be separated". Suppression and separation are the societal answer, otherwise rebellion and race-mixing will work hard to annihilate that society.

In 1970: urban blacks were arrested 8 to 20 times more often than Whites for homicide, rape, aggravated assault and robbery. ...

Of the rapes committed in 1959-65, in Washington D.C., Negroes did 9 out of 10.

The casualness of black crime has gone on for a long time, justified by them as an attack on the enemy, and protected by the courts—sometimes covered by the schools, forgiven by the churches.

Beside all the cities burned and capitols raided in the 60s, there are dozens of reports of black gangs killing or maiming Whites, shooting police as acts of 'civil protest' and 'social justice' heroics.
