Journalist: ‘Some European leaders are freaked out by your what your posture is.’

Trump: ‘They should be freaked out by what they're doing to their countries. It gets to a point where you can't correct it. The people coming in have a totally different ideology, it will make them much weaker, much different. Look at the mayor of London. I hate what's happened to London, I hate what's happened to Paris.’

‘We need exactly what President Trump called for. We need a moratorium on immigration from third world countries, so we can solve all of our issues.

The 1924 act is such a good example because we had large-scale immigration from Europe from 1880 to 1920; we went from a country that had immigration from part of Europe, to a country that had immigration from other parts. But even other European countries posed enormous stresses on the U.S. economy and security.

From 1920 to 1970 natives grew, we fought wars and landed on the moon. This great period of American history happened at a time of negative migration.’

‘During the Civil Rights Era, there was a thought in effect to create a civil right for people from every part of the world to come to America. People from every part of the world emptied into America between 1965 and today. The single largest experiment ever, over 76 million immigrants and their many descendants.

The first generation is unsuccessful, and you see persistent issues in every subsequent generation. This is common sense. If these societies all over the world continue to fail, you have to ask yourself — if you bring those societies into our country... What do we think's going to happen? You're going to replicate the conditions that they left.’

Trump: ‘I've announced a permanent pause on third-world hellholes like Haiti and Somalia. (crowd: “they're shitholes!”) ... I didn't say shithole, you did. ... Remember I said that? Why do we only take people from shithole countries? Why can't we take people from Norway, Sweden.’

A Mexican who fought with an immigration enforcement agent has been hit with a 20 year prison sentence; DOJ says everyone should consider this a warning.

The DOJ has eliminated disparate-impact regulations today, rolling-back the liability priority of the 1964 Civil Rights Act which gave an advantage to people ‘statistically likely to experience discrimination’ such as non-Whites, the LGBT and non-Christians.

This means discrimination in a federal legal context must be proven by intent and conduct, making it harder to merely accuse businesses or White men of discriminating for maintaining reasonable standards.

Trump's travel ban, asylum pause and the review of green cards, vetting of visas is starting to stall legal immigration as USCIS personnel put focus on restriction duties. Trump still has plans to expand the travel ban and implement further restrictions.
