New 2025 report about immigration in Denmark.

First figure: the proportion of descendants in their 20s who are not in employment, education or training.

You will never guess which group is on top.

🧵

People: "Denmark has gotten really strict on immigration".

Reality: Immigration over these last years is higher than ever.

Very stark differences in the education level of immigrants groups.

Somalians are possibly the very worst performing immigrant group here in Denmark, among many extremely poorly performing immigrant groups.

For second-generation Somalian men who grew up here aged 20-29, more than a third are neither employed nor taking an education. This is by far the highest proportion among any group.

What are all these Somalis doing? Probably crime mostly. 62% of second-generation Somalis are convicted of a violent crime by the age of 30.

Somali men have the very lowest non-welfare earnings among all the poorly performing immigrant groups in Denmark.

Out of all the extremely poorly performing immigrant groups in Denmark, Somalis have the second highest proportion of men in prime working age who are on welfare.

They are only edged out by "Lebanon" (which really means mostly Palestinians).

The rape of Meya Åberg is remniscent of the murder of Iryna Zarutska. The poor girl worked at a fast food place, and was on the way home when she was attacked by a violent African. Iryna was on the way from her job in a pizzeria, while Meya Åberg worked at McDonalds.

The rape-enabling leftist policies especially hurt the lower class, hard-working women and girls. Richer women would not have to walk or take the subway home after a late shift. They would drive home from their office job in the afternoon. And then have a glass of wine with their friends and talk about the threat of "the far right".

And in both cases the perpetrator was given absurdly lenient sentences by woke, upper class, female judges.

"Violent assault rape is bad, but it's not excessively bad. So we will let the foreign rapist out in her hometown again in 2-3 years."

- Woke female judge Lena Berggren, who will never have to walk through a tunnel after a late shift at a blue-collar job.

Women's risk of being gang-raped in Europe would be reduced to just ~25% of the current level if there had been no Muslim / African mass immigration.

The Muslim / African mass immigration has made Europe less safe for women to an extreme degree.

A similar study from Sweden found that the number of assault rapes would be reduced to just 16% of the current level without the Muslim / African mass immigration.

Ask people who vote for immigration-lenient European parties why they are voting for such a policy that causes so much violent rape of women and girls. Do they not think violent rape is bad?

Trump has fired Lisa Cook from the board of the Federal Reserve.

This is great news, because Lisa Cook is an unqualified, inept diversity hire.

Her publication record is thin, and focused mostly on racial issues, not monetary policy. As economist John Cochrane noted: "[In her publication] you will find essentially nothing related to monetary policy, monetary effects on employment, interest rates, inflation, financial regulation or other traditional Fed topics."

She was clearly hired for DEI reasons, to be the first Black woman on the board.

Worse still, she is not only unqualified but an unusually inept researcher.

Her most publicized paper, published in 2014, claimed that Black patents declined in 1900 due to racial violence.

But the decline had nothing to do with that. It was simply an artifact of her own dataset.

-----

Explanation:
Cook’s dataset included 726 inventors, compiled from several sources. The single biggest source was the 1900 World’s Fair, which showcased nearly 400 African American inventors. Crucially, that record ended at 1900.

This meant her dataset was front-loaded: almost half of the data points came from a source that stopped at exactly 1900. Naturally, once that source ended, the data appeared to collapse.

Instead of recognizing that this was an artifact of her own collection, Cook attributed the decline to racial violence and lynchings.

Later, The Brookings institute looked at the number of Black patents, and identified ~50,000 patents over this same period, instead of the 726. And they found no significant decline around year 1900, proving that this was just an artifact of her data set.

-----

This embarassing blunder gave her a lot of publicity, and caused her to fail upwards, ultimately being hired for the important job in the board of the Federal Reserve.

Here is the figure from her study, showing a collapse in the number of Black patents recorded exactly at 1900, when the world's fair exhibition took place.

And here is data from the Brookings Institute, identifying 50,000 patents, showing that there was in fact no real decline in Black patents in the year 1900 (red line).

In 2013, the median German voter was in favor of somewhat less immigration

But all the political parties were in favor of more mass immigration, and that's what Germany got. Every year since 2013, Germany has had more than a million immigrants, and in 2015 more than 2 million.

This is against what the people want, and it is a failure of democracy.

AfD is the party that is closest to the median voter on the topic of immigration, and yet in the press they are denounced as extremists, and there are attempts to declare the party illegal and ban it.

From 2013, instead of less immigration as the German voters wanted, they got immigration equal to more than 20% of the population!

This is extremist. Competely changing the country like this against the will of the voters is extremist.
