Texas Tribune ^ | 6/6/2016 | Abby Livinston

WASHINGTON - U.S. Rep. Filemon Vela took a poison pen to the Republican presumptive presidential nominee, Donald Trump, in an open letter Monday morning.

"Mr. Trump, you’re a racist and you can take your border wall and shove it up your ass," the Brownsville Democrat wrote in a lengthy missive to the real estate magnate.

We should just build it about 30 miles inland from Brownsville.

I think the border wall should have a 100 mile buffer zone of no mans land on the south side.

Hey Mr. Fi-le-mon feel'a my ba-na-na..

Trump is smoking out the Reconquistadors! I wonder if Mr. Filemon views Mexico as racist for enforcing their immigration laws?

Marine Sgt. Andrew Tahmooressi was jailed for over a year for making a wrong turn at Mexico's border!

Mexicans are people from Mexico-Texans are people from Texas, no matter where their ancestors were from-Vela has lighter skin than I do-most of his ancestors were obviously from the same place as mine-Spain-but that doesn’t make either of us Spanish...

Filemon Vila. Ecce homo: a member of the US House of Representatives. He owes Trump an apology.
Donald Trump flushes another member of the Mexican Bund out of the shadows, and another mask drops.

The reemergence of Vicente Fox and his profane comments about Trump prompt me to resurrect my "blast from the past" (FROM 2001) concerning the Bush clan's participation in the destruction of America's sovereignty! That Bush "participation" almost certainly explains why we REJECTED JEBBY!

It took obozo's addition of the muzzies to the mix to assemble -– FINALLY – a critical mass of our fellow citizens to begin what I PRAY is a movement to put a halt to our GLOBALIST OLIGARCH PLANNED national/cultural suicide!

 photo TREASON IN SIERRA MADRE_zpsjzj9y4sb.jpg In ABSTRACT terms, this is the conspiratorial view of what’s going on vis-à-vis the INVASION of the illegals here:

The current alien invasion from the south serves BOTH the elites who run Mexico – and many of the OTHER states of Central and South America -- and the political ruling class who increasingly run the United States:

· It takes pressure off the 60 or so families who control approximately 80% of the wealth in Mexico. Without the northern “safety valve” (the United States) for their poor, those poor MIGHT be inclined to do what America’s early colonists found it necessary to do: Revolt! Parenthetically, that would be MY suggestion for them: Instead of fleeing here – and converting “here” to a larger, more poverty infested version of “there,” they ought to stay there and make “there” into their version of “here,” whatever that would be. Revolutions ARE messy and there are no guarantees thatTREACHERY they will produce the desired result. But – according to one T. Jefferson – they are often necessary. Never forget that THIS country was born in revolution!

· For the NAFTA/CAFTA coveting US national ruling class – especially those who, in varying degrees, quest after some sort of One-World utopia run by guess who? – it provides yet another level of insecurity and tension among the indigenous populace which can be used to justify new and more draconian limits to freedom here. Instead of securing the borders, allow millions of illegals to come in and when the natives become alarmed, require a national ID card. “Your papers, please!” will soon become a phrase familiar to all. It’s Mr. Franklin’s trade of freedom for (false) security. It’s also the time-tested Hegelian Dialectic the One-Worlders have successfully worked like a rented mule.

While they occasionally squabble among themselves, the elites of history have ALL had one thing in common: They will do ANYTHING to remain in charge. And throughout that history, except for the 230 year-old experiment in freedom called “America,” most of the men who have walked the earth have lived as slaves to these elites whether they call themselves kings, emperors, potentates, sultans, czars – or presidents.

Get ready, folks. Unless some SERIOUS changes are made and the handful of Americans who CARE about liberty get involved, that history will almost certainly repeat here.

Now for the SPECIFICS of the matter:

My take on Bush's role in all of this is:

1. His long and apparently positive experience with the large hispanic population in Texas is largely responsible for his inaction on this alien invasion. And why wouldn't HIS experience with them be positive as he traveled in the highest, best-educated circles among them, not the Hispanic gangbangers and pine-straw spreaders...

2. His brother Jeb is married to a native of Mexico and his nieces and nephews are mixed blood. And before you scream "ethnocentric bigot" at me, there's nothing inherently wrong with that. But that fact -- and the first item -- DOES predispose him to a warm and fuzzy feeling for folks from south of the Rio Grande.

And if -- in some strange and metastasizing American desire for a new royal family dynasty -- Jeb should win the White House, I'd bet that HIS activities toward this alien invasion will make W's behavior look like a warm-up exercise.

Any vestige of white European culture in America will be a distant memory.

These are the kinds of people being elected to office by Texans.

Texas is on the express train to becoming California. It’s so sad to see.

You texans really need to build a wall and keep out all the CA’s, OR’s, and WA, citizens. They’re screwing up your state.

My bet is that if there is going to be some shoving it’s going to Fileman Vela’s nether region that’s on the receiving end.

It’s funny, it’s the Caucasian Mejicans in power that want to dump their “darkies” on America and make Mejico White.
