One thing I will say about Newscum is that he can bullshit with the very best of them. He can spin a depression into great prosperity.

One thing I will say about Newscum is that he can bullshit with the very best of them. He can spin a depression into great prosperity.

The really disgusting part is the people that vote for him either know full well what he's doing or they dont pay any attention. The people are to blame and they should be butchered for it.

en. John Fetterman is reportedly open to considering H.R. 2, an immigration bill championed by House Republicans.

The Pennsylvania Democrat, who is increasingly proving to be a thorn in the side of Democrats, supports "most" of H.R. 2, Fox News correspondent Chad Pergram reported on Thursday.

But what Fetterman doesn't support is altering the Deferred Action for Childhood Arrivals program, otherwise known as DACA.

"I analyzed it closely," Fetterman said of the bill. "And the the one thing that I cannot support is that it effectively ends DACA at all. But anything other than that, that all can be on the table for me.

I don't go there more then once every few years but it is a good example of how Democrats are corrupt and their claims about needing new laws to "improve things" are for sale.

Working folks in California know what he is all about. That is why they are leaving for Florida and Texas.

I wonder if they are trying to run farmers out of business or if they are just really stupid and don't think about how their policies effect farmers.

The Biden Administration admits it has secretly flown 320,000 illegal aliens into the US directly from foreign countries in order to decrease the flow of illegal entries across the southern border.

Portland has decided to reimpose at least some criminal penalties after completely decriminalizing drug abuse q few years back.  Decriminization has been a complete and total failure and even wildly leftist Portland has had to admit that.

RFK Jr. torches MSNBC hosts ridiculing middle class America over border crisis: 'Dismaying to see'

[Thiel]

Arizona is beleaguered by illegal aliens and is now home to the number-one national hot spot for illegal border crossings. U.S. Customs and Border Protection data indicates migrant encounters in the Tucson sector were up 182.4% in the first four months of fiscal year 2024 over the same period last year, dwarfing the counts of other areas along the southern border.

Keen to tackle this problem, Republicans in the Arizona legislature passed Arizona Border Invasion Act, SB 1231, last month. The bill, greatly similar to the one ratified by Texas Gov. Greg Abbott in December and recently permitted by a federal appeals court to go into effect, would make illegal border crossing a state crime and empower state and local police to arrest foreign nationals who steal into the Grand Canyon State.

By way of veto, Democratic Gov. Katie Hobbs killed this effort to clamp down on illegal immigration on Monday.

This is what RFK jr had to say about the DNC. "They're really trying to block people. They try to block me, they try to block Trump. I'm not a fan of Trump, but I want to be on a level battlefield with him; I don't want to beat him because a court threw him out."

"I think this persecution that the DNC has leveled, that people see that as unfair," he continues. "This is what they do in banana republics."

Federal Judge Allows Pro-Trump Briefs in Classified Documents Case
The judge in the classified documents case handed the former president a victory this week.

The federal judge overseeing the Trump classified documents case on Wednesday allowed third-party legal groups to submit friend of the court briefs that could benefit former President Donald Trump.

U.S. District Judge Aileen Cannon issued a paperless order that allows former Trump adviser Stephen Miller's America First Legal Foundation to file a brief in the case. She also allowed a submission from former Republican Attorney General Edwin Meese, who argued that special counsel Jack Smith, who is prosecuting the case, was unconstitutionally appointed by the Department of Justice (DOJ).

The filings may influence the overall outcome of the prosecution against President Trump, who is accused of illegally retaining classified documents after he left the White House and faces 40 charges. He has pleaded not guilty.

170 Democrats voted against the Lakan Riley Act. Shame on them.

The bill requires federal authorities to detain illegal immigrants arrested for or charged with "any burglary, theft, larceny, or shoplifting offense." If the federal government doesn't comply with the detention requirements, the bill empowers states to sue the federal government. Importantly, the legislation also condemns Biden's "open-borders policies" and places responsibility for Riley's death at the president's feet because of his policies.

It's not clear whether such a law would have prevented Riley's death, but the Venezuelan immigrant charged for murdering her, Jose Ibarra, was arrested for shoplifting last year.
