There Are No Ag ‘Jobs Americans Won’t Do’ If They Earn A Living Wage

There Are No Ag ‘Jobs Americans Won’t Do’ If They Earn A Living Wage

Whenever Republicans talk about immigration enforcement, amnesty supporters chant the same tired line: What about picking crops? What about meat processing? Those are necessary jobs that Americans simply refuse to do.

That argument was used to justify dozens of House Republicans’ latest mass amnesty effort. Their proposal would give illegal alien agriculture workers a pathway to legal status through the H-2A program, even though they have broken multiple laws by being in the United States illegally and getting a job without a work permit. Their employer has also violated the law by hiring these illegals.

The Death of the Cash Cow

The Death of the Cash Cow

Looking at the global automotive market, one conclusion is unavoidable: the end of the combustion engine is nowhere in sight. The ideological crusade against Germany’s industrial backbone has merely led to the slaughter of the country’s automotive cash cows.

The reasons behind the decline of Germany’s automotive industry will remain subject to debate. But one thing is clear: an energy policy detached from economic reality, driven by climate-apocalyptic ambitions, has harmed the industry at least as much as strategic mistakes at the management level.

Vancouver Police Allegedly Recovered $890,000 in Stolen Goods From an East Side House and Locker. BC Seeks the Home as Instrument of Alleged Fencing Operation

Vancouver Police Allegedly Recovered $890,000 in Stolen Goods From an East Side House and Locker. BC Seeks the Home as Instrument of Alleged Fencing Operation

VANCOUVER — When Vancouver police executed search warrants at a house on East 28th Avenue in May, what they catalogued read like the stockroom of a small department store.

More than 80 acoustic and electric guitars, hundreds of home improvement items, power tools and battery packs, over 100 containers of baby formula, designer sunglasses with price tags attached, new toiletries still in their packaging, racks of clothing from Lululemon, Aritzia and Arc’teryx with price and anti-theft tags intact, boxed electronics — and over $5,000 in cash.

Michigan Senate Candidate Abdul El-Sayed Calls US Political System a ‘Disease’

Michigan Senate Candidate Abdul El-Sayed Calls US Political System a ‘Disease’

Last December, The Hill  reported that more Muslim candidates were seeking office as the “Mamdani effect” took hold. Two months ago, the New Arab reported that “across the US, Muslims are running in the 2026 midterms at the federal, state and local levels.” But what these candidates are standing for requires scrutiny. The spotlight is now on Michigan Senate candidate Abdul El-Sayed. “Socialist-backed Michigan Senate hopeful calls American politics a ‘disease’ after professing love for US,” by Bonny Chu, Fox News, July 2025, 2026…

Why I’m Writing This Anonymously and What That Says About Free Speech in Britain Today

Why I’m Writing This Anonymously and What That Says About Free Speech in Britain Today

I have wanted to write for the Daily Sceptic for a long time. It should be a straightforward ambition to fulfil. I have opinions, I support free speech and scepticism, and here is a publication built for exactly that. Instead, my first contribution arrives unsigned. I think the reason why is, in itself, the article.

Ann Widdecombe’s murder has reopened a question that surfaces from time to time: should politicians with ‘unfashionable’ views get extra protection? The investigation continues, so I won’t comment on that, but the fact that the question is even being asked in response to a 78 year-old woman being killed in her own home tells you something regardless of how the investigation concludes. We have been here before. Jo Cox in 2016. David Amess in 2021. A pattern is forming, whatever the final facts of this particular case turn out to be.

Peter Navarro: Canada wants free trade — only on its terms

Peter Navarro: Canada wants free trade — only on its terms

Canada has long cultivated the image of America’s friendly, free-trading neighbor. The reality is less polite.

Behind the maple-leaf branding is a protectionist system that singles out American farmers, distillers, automakers, and workers. Canada demands access to the American market while reserving the right to close its own when competition becomes inconvenient.

‘Hamas sleeper cell terrorist’ is found working at luxury Crete hotel ‘while preparing cruise ship attack’ – as plot to carry out ‘second October 7’ in Europe is foiled

A suspected Hamas operative allegedly worked at a luxury hotel on the Greek island of Crete while preparing for a suspected terror attack targeting an Israeli cruise ship, according to reports.

The 37-year-old Egyptian man of Palestinian origin, identified by the media as Motasem, was arrested by Greek special forces in the tourist resort of Agios Nikolaos during a raid in early June after recently taking a job as an electrician at the hotel.

Greek police discovered chemicals, a precision scale and other specialist equipment used to make bombs inside his apartment in Athens.

Why did Canada give in to the Gordie Howe bridge shakedown?

Why did Canada give in to the Gordie Howe bridge shakedown?

This is not how completion of the Gordie Howe International Bridge should have ended, with Canada giving in to another U.S. shakedown.

A few days before the bridge’s originally scheduled opening on June 15, U.S. President Donald Trump renewed his threat, first stated in February, to block the opening of the Canadian-built and financed Windsor-Detroit bridge.

Sweden’s Cousin Marriage Ban Undermined by Immigration Loophole

Sweden’s Cousin Marriage Ban Undermined by Immigration Loophole

The Swedish Migration Agency (Migrationsverket) is reportedly struggling to prevent people from using family reunification rules to bring close relatives into the country, despite Sweden’s new ban on cousin marriage.

The law, which came into force on July 1, prohibits marriage between cousins and certain other close relatives. It is intended to combat forced marriage and reduce the health risks associated with children being born to closely related parents.

ANALYSIS: When accommodation meets public safety — Canada’s kirpan debate

CALGARY — The latest controversy surrounding the kirpan has reared its head as a Sikh man carrying the ceremonial blade — worn by initiated Sikhs as an article of faith — inside a GoodLife Fitness gym in Windsor, Ontario, has reignited the debate that Canada has been having for decades, and it appears no closer to being resolved.

The DSA’s Ideal Voter Is Exactly Who You’d Expect

The DSA’s Ideal Voter Is Exactly Who You’d Expect

While we’ve previously covered that the voting bloc driving the socialist surge in places like New York City is largely made up of wealthy, white, college-educated voters, statistician Nate Silver has narrowed that group down even further.

In a new analysis, Silver found that voters most likely to be sympathetic to Democratic Socialists of America-backed candidates are highly educated and have relatively low incomes. In other words, the sweet spot is not just college-educated voters, but college-educated voters who have managed to pair credentialed grievance with economic disappointment.

Canadians who are worried about their immigration system should be paying attention to our closest historical partners. They’ve made many of the same errors we have in allowing porous borders, and their experiences offer a warning about the problems Canada can expect if we do not correct course.

Prepare for Trump’s Midterm Surprise

Prepare for Trump’s Midterm Surprise

Renewed and increasingly intense exchanges of missile and air strikes between the U.S. and Iran may escalate further. As reported in past editions of The American Spectator, the IRGC under its most fanatical and dangerous chieftain, Ahmed Vahidi, is now clearly in charge of Iran. Diplomatic front men staging the kabuki theater negotiations in Pakistan to squeeze concessions from President Trump are shelved until further notice.
