Adapted from the latest Radio Derb, available exclusively on VDARE.com:

If you followed the recent hysteria about our cruelty to illegal alien children on non-Main Stream Media, you'll be familiar with the depth of nonsense and dishonesty behind it all.
 
You'll know that the policy causing all the shrieking and fainting has been in place for years, long before Donald Trump showed up....
 
You probably also know that Mexico is a nation addled with criminality and corruption. Much of what happens there is dictated by crime syndicates who depend on smuggling narcotics into the U.S.A. Those syndicates obviously have a keen interest in keeping our Border Patrol busy with other matters—like, for example, detaining and processing illegal border-crossers....
 
As of last Friday, you're probably acquainted with the backstory behind Time magazine's current cover picture of a weeping tot who, according to Time, had been ripped from her mother's arms.
 
The true story—uncovered by the British press, of course, not by our own worthless hacks—is that the child comes from a comfortable middle-class family in Honduras; that the child's mother long fantasized about living in the U.S.A.; and that she at last acted on her fantasy, paying six thousand dollars to people traffickers and heading north without telling her husband, ...

Under these circumstances, with midterm elections just twenty weeks away, both parties are of course strategizing like crazy.
 
The Democrats' strategy is to run out the clock: doing nothing either positive or negative while striving to make President Trump look as bad as possible in the eyes of their base—GoodWhite ethnomasochists and racial minorities. The Main Stream Media are totally on board with this,...
 
The President could anyway have spared himself all the wrangling his administration's in for with the judiciary, and could also have spared us this last few day's screeching hysteria, by just doing what he was elected to do: build an effective border barrier.
 
It's not that hard. Israel's done it; Hungary's done it; Saudi Arabia and India have done it. China did it two thousand years ago. ...
 
This has been Trump's greatest failure. Those of who voted for him, campaigned for him, and turned out on freezing winter mornings to show our support for him, need to keep telling him this.
