Murdoch Paper Trashes Trump With Immigrant Nobel Prize Winners

Rupert Murdoch’s Wall Street Journal ruthlessly turned on Donald Trump, using the newest Nobel Prize winners to deliver a sharp rebuke to his immigration crackdown.

“Welcoming immigrants to the U.S. is out of fashion on the political right these days, even for those who enter the U.S. legally,” the board wrote. “That’s short-sighted for America’s future prosperity, as this week’s news about the annual Nobel Prize winners in the sciences shows again.”


Six U.S. residents were among nine Nobel winners in the sciences this year—and half of them were immigrants. Trump, meanwhile, is hoping to be honored with a Nobel Peace Prize on Friday as a result of his peacekeeping efforts.

The editorial cited research from the National Foundation for American Policy showing that immigrants account for roughly 40 percent of all U.S.-based Nobel winners in the sciences since 2000—45 percent in physics, 43 percent in chemistry, and 32 percent in medicine.

It's a good thing that tsf will be in a hospital tomorrow when the winner is announced, he will need all the help he can get. I would suggest they have a soundproof padded room on hand.
