[Adapted from the latest Radio Derb, now available exclusively on VDARE.com]
When america has been restored as a correct nation with demographic stability, well-managed borders, and a correct concern for the continuity of our nationwide tradition, a monument ought to be erected in tribute to all those that helped make it occur.
I doubt my identify shall be amongst these engraved on that monument. I do what I can right here in my weekly podcasts and month-to-month diaries, however I’m an excessive amount of of a dilettante, too simply distracted by unrelated issues: astronomical occasions, childhood recollections, linguistics, math trivia, Hungarian novels, Chinese language poems, Italian opera, weapons, doom, … Eh, it’s an inventory with no finish.
VDARE.com’s Peter and Lydia Brimelow can have their names inscribed there on that monument, although, together with our senior contributors.
And someplace, excessive up on the plinth with their names, would be the identify of Ann Corcoran.
In 2007 Ann was alarmed by the large-scale settlement of overseas Muslims in her house state. She based a web site referred to as Refugee Resettlement Watch. For twelve years thereafter she posted usually concerning the refugee resettlement rackets, and about the entire bogus “asylum” enterprise basically.
That after all bought the eye of the Southern Poverty Legislation Heart, Wokipedia, and different guardians of multicultural orthodoxy; and that led Ann’s internet hosting service, WordPress, to drop her for the same old mealy-mouthed pretend causes.
Ann continued running a blog for an additional three years as greatest she may, posting 37 instances right here at VDARE.com, August 2021 to February 2022. Then she stop.
The entire of Refugee Resettlement Watch, from July 2007 to February 2022, survives in a kind that we archived as refugeeresettlementwatch.org. Your complete archive is in 1,942 net pages; so if you happen to’re planning on shopping it, put aside loads of time.
I’m glad to report that as I’m recording this, Ann is in good well being. She is presently getting ready her home and farm for a Memorial Day gathering of her household, youngsters and grandchildren. Blessings to all of them from VDARE!
Why did she stop running a blog in 2022? Sheer exhaustion, and an ample provide of different issues she needed to get finished.
What we do right here—standing up for the Historic American Nation and sane immigration insurance policies—typically looks as if thankless work with nothing to point out for all of it.
On the VDARE convention 4 weeks in the past I identified to Peter that
- his landmark guide Alien Nation was printed in 1995, which was
- thirty years after the Hart-Celler Act of 1965 modified the united statesA.’s immigration coverage in a multicultural path; and that
- subsequent yr, 2025, shall be thirty years additional alongside historical past’s freeway, with
- our immigration system at present is extra chaotic than ever—far worse than in 1965 and even 1995.
So in February 2022 Ann sighed and mentioned: “Properly, I’ve finished all I can, honorably and diligently. Now let others take up the trigger.”
And naturally others will. We will, right here at VDARE.com, for so long as we will fend off Letitia Lawfare and her legions of like-minded bureaucrats and judges.
And behind us there are others. As I’ve been noting lately, in my April Diary and final week’s podcast, there’s a swelling cohort of younger, regular, wholesome, patriotic, and … younger residents all around the Western world waking as much as the harmful horrors of unrestrained multiculturalism.
They’re those who shall be erecting that monument and inscribing the honored names on it—the names of the Brimelows, of Jared Taylor, of Ann Corcoran, and plenty of others.
Sure, listeners [JFK impersonation]: “The tawrch has been pahssed to a noo era of People …”
It was from Ann Corcoran’s work that we realized—nicely, that I realized—concerning the refugee-resettlement enterprise mannequin.
See: there’s some huge cash to be made in refugee resettlement. A few of it comes from voluntary donations, however an amazing deal is equipped by authorities sources.
The primary distributors of that cash are what Ann referred to as the VOLAGS—voluntary companies. There are 9 VOLAGS, all with uplifting—in 5 instances, explicitly spiritual—names. Right here’s Ann’s checklist:
Had been there ever 9 organizations listed along with names so aromatic with charity, love, and religious uplift?
However the truth is, as Ann famous in certainly one of her posts right here at VDARE.com dated September 2021:
They actually aren’t “faith-based” spiritual charities … however handsomely funded federal contractors hiding beneath a veneer of Jewish and Christian humanitarian zeal.
All this got here to thoughts early this week after I was watching Jesse Watters’ present. Apparently it’s now not simply Ann Corcoran’s VOLAGS, though Jesse mentions certainly one of them. There’s a complete wolf pack of nonprofits passing cash—your cash and my cash—from Uncle Sam to bogus refugees, asylum seekers, and plain vanilla unlawful aliens. The top wolves in these packs are doing very nicely for themselves.
Right here’s Jesse to let you know himself. His supply is a report printed on Could twelfth by The Free Press: Nonprofits Are Making Billions off the Border Disaster.

[Clip, Jesse Watters speaking.] When there’s an issue within the nation politicians have two solutions: blame the opposite celebration, or throw cash at it.Biden detonated a bomb on the border on his first day in workplace, blamed Trump, and now needs extra of your cash to repair it.
Biden has extra sources than any president in historical past. He can repair the border with Govt Orders. So the place’s … You need extra money? At the moment we’re discovering out the place the border bucks are going.
The Free Press investigation into the nonprofits who’re paid by the federal government to maintain migrant youngsters. Billions of {dollars} go to those nonprofits. And the CEO’s?—filthy wealthy.
Chip Fulghum runs the nonprofit Endeavors; Chip makes 600 Gs. Earlier than that he labored on the DHS—the identical company that now throws him contracts. The Free Press experiences that his group had one level three billions in contracts with the federal government in 2022.
Endeavor spent a half a mil of that cash on Music Remedy for migrant youngsters. Music Remedy. In addition they provide Pet Remedy and Plant Remedy. We don’t actually know what meaning, however 5 hundred grand is some huge cash for pets, crops, and music—which, final time I checked, have been free.
Endeavor bought again to us. They are saying their CEO’s pay is according to different nonprofits and that compensation consists of advantages, journey, and different enterprise bills. In addition they do work for vets and homeless.
Southwest Key Packages is one other nonprofit flush together with your money, run by Physician Anselmo Villarreal … I like that. Makes over a mil.
The NGO has issues. A employee was charged with sexual abuse and so they have been investigated for misuse of funds. They nonetheless bought eight hundred million {dollars} in contracts from Biden. Eight hundred million.
Then there’s Krish O’Mara Vignarajah. She revamped 5 hundred Gs because the CEO of International Refuge—how’d she get that job? Properly, she labored for Michelle Obama … additionally John Kerry and Hillary. Crooked taught her nicely: Krish went from a authorities wage to creating half a mil a yr. Now she calls Trump a dictator on MS.
[Inner clip, Ms Vignarajah speaking.] The agenda that they’ve laid out, most lately within the Occasions article, reads prefer it’s straight out of a dictator’s playbook. The Trump marketing campaign is aware of that there’s no standard help for the form of authoritarian crackdown they’ve … form of laid out.[End inner clip.]
[Jesse Watters again.] Now, there’s bought to be someplace higher to ship all this cash to.]
Really, Jesse, “all this cash” doesn’t should be despatched wherever.
It might be left within the pockets and financial institution accounts of the individuals who earned it—we, the American taxpayers.
