Be careful with the information that some will provide in here about Spain. Don't get scammed by one of these visa agents, and end up banned. Spain isn't an easy place to get into. Check some of the other threads on that.

More important, right now, Spain is experiencing a resurgence of fascism. You do not want to be in that country.

It's illegal migrants that do all the dirty jobs in America. They pick the fruits in orchards. They remove cobwebs from homes. They man refuse collection. They do a whole lot of things that both Americans and legal migrants can't do.
This is a myth and scare tactic. America's agriculture, construction, trades, and etc. did just fine before tons of illegal Mexicans were around. The main reason those industries use illegals is because they don't want to pay living wages and provide safe working conditions.
Foreign AffairsRe: 956 Arrests In Nationwide US Immigration Crackdown Sunday by Cousin9999(op): 4:17pm On Jan 28, 2025
Last week, Newark Mayor Ras Barka said undocumented residents and citizens - including one military veteran - were detained without a warrant during an ICE raid of a local business. "Newark will not stand by idly while people are being unlawfully terrorised," Baraka said. Immigration advocates have warned that during ICE raids other people, including citizens, could get caught in the cross-fire. Meanwhile, Homan has repeatedly said that undocumented people caught up in raids of criminals who are without documentation, will be deported too. On Sunday, in an interview with ABC News, Homan said he expected arrest and deportation numbers to "steadily increase," and said the focus right now was "public safety threats, national security threats". The 956 reported arrests on Sunday follow 286 arrests on Saturday, 593 arrests on Friday and 538 arrests on Thursday.

During Joe Biden's four years in office he carried out 1.5 million deportations, according to figures by the Migration Policy Institute. Those numbers mirror the deportation numbers in Trump's first term.

The Immigration agency says it arrested 956 people nationwide on Sunday, 1,179 on Monday, and more than 3,400 since Trump took office one week ago.

Foreign Affairs956 Arrests In Nationwide US Immigration Crackdown Sunday by Cousin9999(op): 4:12pm On Jan 28, 2025
A nationwide immigration crackdown on Sunday resulted in the arrest of 956 people, the most since Donald Trump returned to power, according to Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE). A number of federal agencies with newly expanded detention powers were involved in the raids in a number of cities including Chicago, Newark and Miami.

Trump came to power after making mass deportations of undocumented immigrants a central campaign promise. His predecessor Joe Biden carried out an average of 311 immigration deportations daily, according to ICE, mostly individuals who had committed crimes. Since taking office, Trump has carried out 21 executive actions to overhaul the US immigration system. Tom Homan, Trump's border czar, was in Chicago to oversee the operation there but his federal crackdown has made Democratic leaders unhappy.

Chicago Mayor Brandon Johnson acknowledged the ICE enforcement activity, saying Chicago police were not involved and reminding residents to know their rights. In Miami on Sunday, federal law enforcement agencies conducted several "immigration enforcement actions," the city's Homeland Security Investigation said on social media. This included ICE's local office Miami detaining undocumented migrants on various offences. An unnamed man told CBS News, the BBC's US news partner, that ICE took his wife during on the Miami raids this weekend. "It's despicable what they're doing right now," he told CBS. "It's very embarrassing." He said his wife was in the process of getting citizenship when ICE arrived: "They just came and they snatched her."

I keep wondering why so much fuss about Trump winning asif this is his first tenure. During his first tenure did he grab all the women's pussies or imprison all the blacks? This is absolute NONSENSE
The first time the shitheads elected this m0ron, he wasn't as insanely focused on doing as much evil as possible. And Obama's efforts minimized the damage. Obama also had 8 years to put certain things in place.

This time, a bunch of psychopaths have given his dumb ass a to-do list to turn America into Myanmar. And Biden only had 4 years to work on the mess he created, while dealing with a massive crisis (made worse by Dump).

The UN's CERD states that Afro-Colombians face "persistent structural and historical discrimination" which results in "high levels of poverty and social exclusion," when compared to the rest of the population (UN 22 Jan. 2020, para. 16). The US Department of State's Country Reports on Human Rights Practices for 2019 states that Afro-Colombians face "significant economic and social discrimination" (US 11 Mar. 2020, 28).
The [apparent] decrease in the number of Afro-Colombians in the 2018 census compared to the 2005 census was criticized by some organizations, including the UN Committee on the Elimination of Racial Discrimination the National Conference of Afro-Colombian Organizations
In correspondence with the Research Directorate, an assistant professor of black studies at the University of California, Santa Barbara, whose research includes black lives in urban Colombia, stated that there is an "unspoken and yet socially shared antagonism" towards Afro-Colombians, who are viewed as the "'enemy' of Colombian economic progress"

Foreign AffairsRe: Brazil Accuses US Of Blatant Disrespect For Deporting 88 Migrants In Handcuffs by Cousin9999: 8:15pm On Jan 26, 2025
The main people they deported aren't people who simply don't have visas. These are robbers, sex offenders, traffickers, gang members, and etc.

Furthermore, many of these migrants aren't real migrants. These countries deliberately send their worst to the US to get rid of them. They partner with NGOs to fly these people places, and give them instructions on what to say and how to access certain resources.

That said, the US has a hand in creating these cartels and gangs in the same way they create terrorists elsewhere to act as proxy armies.

It's not climate change, and it's not whatever nonsense oyinbos are babbling about.

Why the fires are happening:

1.) Fire cycles are natural. It's how the forest maintains/grows itself. It's not a disaster.
2.) Real estate developers and corrupt politicians allow homes to be constructed in areas that are part of the fire cycle, and it's totally unnecessary to build there.
3.) Real estate and other developers rip out parts of the natural environment that control the fire cycle.
4.) Real estate developers, corrupt politicians, and the average person keep demanding suburban sprawl and huge single-family homes.
5.) Mexican illegals are exploiting the chaos to set fires and steal.
6.) They keep rebuilding homes in these fire zones. Yes, they actually do that. And no, they don't try to fireproof them, which isn't as expensive as they claim.

The bottom line is the 1% is trying to stuff their pockets, and smart city planning and development gets in the way of that. Keeping Mexican illegals out gets in the way of that. Protecting the environment gets in the way of that.

Evans made a $50,000 downpayment on a Lamborghini using the proceeds from the securities fraud, the charges state.

In November, Kole Glen Brimhall, 27, of Orem, admitted to defrauding clients of more than $4.9 million. Brimhall fraudulently sold investments in e-commerce stores through Alpha Influence, according to the U.S. Attorney's Office for Utah.

In 2022, Evans hosted Alpha Con in Salt Lake City. A year after the ridiculed conference took place, dozens of complaints began to stack up at the Utah Department of Commerce's Division of Consumer Protection.

Evans, who has his own podcast, describes himself on his website as "a former Division One quarterback and online entrepreneur. He has achieved over $70 million in online sales across seven different industries. … Throughout his career, he has helped over 300 students make their first six-figures online with over 15 of them doing over seven-figures in online sales."

Evans is listed as a quarterback for BYU in 2017 but never played in a game.

In court documents, federal prosecutors allege Evans defrauded victims by making false or misleading statements or leaving out material facts, including:

-Alpha Influence had been operating successfully for years when it had not.
-That the investment would generate consistent, predictable monthly returns when it did not.
-That investment principal would be recouped within 12 to 18 months when it was not.
-That the investment would earn an average of 7%-10% return on investment per month in profit after expenses when it did not.
-That Alpha Influence and Evans had connections with high-ranking Amazon staff at Amazon's corporate headquarters in Seattle who were readily accessible to solve problems that might arise with the Alpha Influence investment when he did not.
-That Alpha Influence employed a legal team to assist with resolving issues for individual investors when it did not.
-Failed to disclose that Alpha Influence was unable to resolve store suspensions and could not get many stores operational after they were shut down for violation of Amazon policies.
-Failed to disclose that several testimonials provided in support of Alpha Influence and the success of the investment offered were made by relatives of Evans or others who received commissions from investor proceeds.

A Utah County entrepreneur has pleaded guilty in federal court to costing hundreds of clients millions of dollars after selling securities illegally. Jeremiah "The Bull" Joseph Evans was charged Tuesday with securities fraud and money laundering. Evans is the owner of Alpha Influence LLC. "Neither Evans nor Alpha Influence was licensed to offer or sell securities," according to charging documents filed in U.S. district court. On Thursday, during his initial appearance in federal court, Evans pleaded guilty to both counts. He is scheduled to be sentenced on April 3.

From July 2019 through July 2022, Evans "devised and intended to devise a scheme and artifice to defraud investors, and to obtain money and property by means of materially false and fraudulent pretenses, representations, promises and omissions of material facts," the charges state. "During the course and scope of the scheme, approximately $20,894,674 was wired or otherwise sent to accounts held in the name of Alpha Influence and controlled by Evans by approximately 530 victims."

Uganda: An Indian Colony 1897-1972 by Samwiri Lwanga-Lunyiigo

-The well-researched, provocative book comes as Uganda marks 50 years since the expulsion of Indians. Many people are still debating whether this was a fool’s act or a brave man’s actions.

-The book explains how this minority group dominated the country’s economy as sub-colonialists until they were expelled. It also sparks debate about their return.

-With evidence, the book shows how the Indians, who were just one percent of the then eight million people who lived in Uganda, controlled 75 percent of the economy but only paid 5.4 percent in taxes and repatriated all their profits.
