VP Mike Pence to Be Keynote Speaker at Pro-Amnesty Koch Brothers’ Retreat
Breitbart.com ^ | John Binder29 Sep 2017 | John Binder 29 Sep 2017

Vice President Mike Pence will be the keynote speaker at pro-mass immigration GOP mega-donors Charles and David Koch’s New York political strategy retreat.

Pence is expected to speak on public policy at the Koch brothers’ retreat, which will be held on Oct. 12 and 13, according to USA Today. The retreat is also to cultivate Republican candidates for the 2018 midterm elections who are in-line with the Kochs’ open borders agenda.

“As a legislator, governor and now vice president, Pence truly understands how good policies can help all Americans improve their lives,” Koch network spokesperson James Davis said in a statement. “Our members are looking forward to insight as we discuss plans to reverse the trajectory toward a two-tiered society and move toward one of mutual benefit, and a brighter future for all.”

Pence’s speaking engagement at the event is at odds with his social conservative history and base of supporters, as the Koch brothers remain heavily supportive of cultural libertarianism, open borders, the importation of cheap foreign labor, and driving down wages for American workers who are forced to compete with a never-ending flood of chain migration.

For example, just this week, the Koch brothers through their Libre Initiative organization threw their weight behind the latest GOP establishment legislation that would give amnesty to potentially 3.3 million illegal aliens, as Breitbart News reported, while spiking a surge at the U.S.-Mexico border.

Pence’s alliance to the pro-open borders Koch brothers in the 2018 midterm elections is also at odds with the populist economic-nationalist movement which helped elect President Trump and supports his “America First” agenda of secure borders, higher wages through less immigration for American workers, and an end to needless free trade initiatives that allow multinational corporations to readily outsource U.S. jobs.

Getting tired of Paul and I’m a Libertarian. One more day to eliminate Obamacare and he’s gotta be a purist. Same with Cruz. The skirts are useless too.

Hang in there. He may present a reasoned defense of tight borders.

If he doesn’t, then it’s time to rip him.

This is why only a billionaire could attempt to save our nation from the globalist oligarchy. Everyone else is owned.

I think Brietbart has jumped the shark and should get a room with Ann Coulter.


She does hook up with some weirdos, but I think they have all been alive so far.

So billions more to bail out insurance companies easok? That’s the very thing that is defined as propping up Obamacare. Insurance companies and banks became one force several years ago, under us law. So essentially you are giving billions to bankers. You know the ones who already get billions to “ administer healthcare”.
Repeal every word.

Pence has been a Cheap Labor Express Republican since his days in the House.

Pence is just following orders from Trump.

Trump has followed through on only two of his immigration campaign promises - he is rounding up and deporting criminal immigrants, and he is harassing Sanctuary Cities.

Which is good, because Hillary would have never done that.

However, eleven months after being elected president:

The Wall has barely begun.

DACA was not revoked by Executive Order on his first day.

Universal E-Verify is rarely discussed, except as a token compromise for giving Amnesty to the DACAs.

Obama admitted an average of 75,000 refugees for 8 years. Trump is wildly cheered for reducing that 55,000 in fiscal 2017, plus 10,000 fewer Muslims.

Obama averaged 1.1 million LEGAL immigrants for 8 years. Trump will admit about 1.0 million LEGAL immigrants in 2017. And chain migration is undiminished.

H-1B foreign workers and low skill foreign workers for Trump in 2017 will be roughly the same as Obama in 2016.

I will vote to reelect Trump in 2020.

But, in 2021, Trump will grant some kind of legal status to all DACAs and to all illegal immigrants who have not committed felonies.

I completely agree about Coulter I think she’s a legend in her own mind and think she is the voice of conservatism she is exactly the opposite I do have to take umbrage however with comments on Breitbart I happen to like their shows wilkow in particular David Webb I like both of those shows a lot and I love Sonnie Johnson

Knowing that site, this is likely nothing, but Brietbart just draw lines in every direction until it hits something they can rake out a sensationalist headline from.

And then you have chowderheads on this site that just scream “HE SHOULD RESIGN!!!!” like speaking at a thing is grounds to resign as vice president. Bleeping retards...
