Taking cues from Orwell’s 1984, Big Tech has quashed discussion of 2020 election integrity.  However alarming this foray against our free speech rights, their larger aim is still more profound and threatening to our continued enjoyment and exercise of constitutional rights. … Indeed, the Left seeks no less than to assert total dominion over all conservative opinion with the goal to quell any and all challenges to their authority.  Charlemagne Institute

George Rebane

Confused‘If you come, you can stay.’ is the message President Biden blurted before his administration had made any preparations for the hundreds of thousands that took the invitation literally to surge across our southern border, totally abrogating the existing border security policy and overwhelming the apparatus that had reduced illegal entrants to a trickle under the Trump administration.  Today the Biden Bunch is at wits end (for them a very short trek) to try and deal with the human crisis they have launched out of total ignorance and incompetence – they didn’t have a clue what any room temp IQ could have predicted about what’s happening now, and what is on its way north.

In bygone days farmers with movable outhouses had a working homily for dealing with such situations – ‘don’t shit in the old well until the new one’s dug.’  That piece of obvious advice went by the board with the current crop of double dummies in the White House who have opened the spigot for an uncountable number of illegal entrants.  We have now retied the hands of our border security people.  They can no longer return those they capture, but must find them humane and comfortable lodgings, or simply turn them loose into our nation’s interior.

Meanwhile, as they play word games with ‘challenge’ and ‘crisis’, Biden’s handlers have dispatched a WH team to the border area to find out what’s really going on.  During this delay, press prevaricator Jen Psaki tells us that the border crisis was “inherited” and is being kept from the president who will be duly briefed on it when the look-see contingent returns.  In the interval, she assures the assembled reporters, that there is no use of anyone asking him about the tsunami of illegal aliens since he really hasn’t been told yet.  That is another reason they are keeping Bumblebrain away from the mics and cameras while setting a record for the delay until the president’s first press conference.  It will be pure entertainment for all to see how they finally decide to pull that one off.

    Some history for Emery. We have seen this crappy movie before.
    When Democrats passed their $1.9 trillion “COVID relief” bill this week, they did far more than provide money for vaccines, or for Americans struggling to find work.
    They used much of the spending to bail out Democrat-run cities whose long-term budget problems predated the pandemic.
    They used billions to bail out the ailing pension systems of their union allies — with no reforms demanded in return.
    And they funneled billions to interest groups that elected them, like public school employees.
    We have seen this pattern before.
    Democrats used the 2008 financial crisis to win the presidency, even though they helped to create the crisis by refusing to regulate quasi-government housing lenders Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac.
    Rahm Emanuel, the chief of staff of the incoming Barack Obama White House, declared: “You never want a serious crisis to go to waste.”
    And so they used much of the $862 billion “stimulus” in 2009 to reward their allies rather than to generate job-creating growth.

    This about wraps up any doubt as to Trumps involvement with the insurrection of Jan 6:
    Direct quote from Trumps acting Secretary of Defense Chris Miller
    “The question is, would anybody have marched on the Capitol and overrun the Capitol without the president’s speech?” Miller asked. “I think it’s pretty much definitive that wouldn’t have happened.”

    Ummm. Of course not. Nobody would have been in Washington. So just because Trump has a speech and tells people to March to the Capitol and peacefully protest, it is his fault that 300 morons storm the Capitol. That’s just silly.

    this Chris Miller, Punch?
    “During the 2021 storming of the United States Capitol, Miller was criticized for several reasons. He hesitated to approve assistance of National Guard troops from neighboring states to reinforce the D.C. National Guard until 4:41 PM, three hours after Capitol Police signaled that they were being overrun and two hours after city officials from the District had asked for such assistance. Two days prior, he banned the DC National Guard from touching, arresting, or searching rioters, and bringing weapons, helmets and body armor to work on January 6. Miller was succeeded by then-Deputy Secretary of Defense David Norquist on January 20, 2021.”

    “Pelosi’s office had previously impressed upon Irving that the National Guard was to remain off Capitol Grounds, Irving allegedly told House Admin. The discussions, which centered around “optics,” allegedly occurred in the months prior to the Jan. 6 riot, during a time when deployment of federal resources for civil unrest was unpopular with Democrats and many members of Congress.”

    Biden border boomerang: Thousands of illegal immigrant children penned in ‘facilities akin to jails’
    Administration has had to reopen some facilities to handle massive surge.
    “The detention crisis comes as border patrol agents have been contending with a major surge of illegal immigration activity along the southern border. According to U.S. Customs and Border Patrol’s most recent
    statistics, the U.S. Border Patrol logged 285,217 “encounters” at U.S. borders through January of fiscal year 2021. That’s roughly 70% of the total for all of fiscal year 2020 in just three months.”
    “The Border Patrol claimed last week that the agency is on track to arrest a “record number” of immigrant sex offenders this year. Agents in Laredo, Texas, meanwhile, have multiple times this month apprehended over one hundred illegal immigrants over short periods of time.”…..
    “it Ocasio-Cortez, however, does not appear to have commented on the Biden detention crisis since Feb. 23, suggesting the progressive icon may be less outspoken in opposition to mass detention of child immigrants under Biden than she was under Trump. The self-described democratic socialist famously claimed that Trump’s child detention facilities were literal “concentration camps.” At one point during her first campaign for the House of Representatives, she visited a migrant detention center and was depicted sobbing next to a road outside of the facility.
    The crisis at the border has been so acute in recent weeks that the Biden administration was forced to reopen a much-criticized facility in Homestead, Fla., one capable of accepting over 3,000 children.
    (ROFLMAO)
    As a presidential candidate in 2019, now-Vice President Kamala Harris vowed to shut down the Homestead
    facility, among others, claiming the facilities employed “people who are profiting off the incarceration of children.”

    Biden officials don’t want to call it a crisis, but the challenge, matter of concern, situation, or whatever euphemistic term they are applying to the border today is running out of control.
    DHS has warned of potentially the biggest wave of migrants in two decades, and the number crossing the border has doubled since January.
    The surge is especially pronounced among minors. The number of minors crossing every day has tripled since the end of last year and is on a pace to set a record this month. More than 8,500 minors are currently in HHS shelters, with 3,500 waiting in Border Patrol facilities designed for adults where they are only supposed to spend 72 hours but are staying longer.
    The Biden administration has opened up one tent city and is planning more. And it has eliminated the social-distancing guidelines that had limited how many migrants could be kept in shelters.
    Indications are that parents are sending the minors — and sometimes traveling with them up to the border and then splitting up — in the belief that they will gain entry into the United States and never leave.
    This is a well-founded belief. Only about 4 percent of minors who have come to the United States in recent years have been returned home. They are released to relatives in the U.S., who are also likely to be illegal immigrants, and even if they are eventually ordered removed, we don’t have the resources or the will to see that it happens.
    The latest border surge is entirely Biden’s doing. That his rhetoric and policies would create a new crisis was predictable, and indeed, it was predicted.

    Increasingly, Facts Are Considered Racist
    “Why do racial preferences in admission matter to the case of Professor Sellers? Because, quite simply, if a student is admitted with lower academic qualifications than his classmates, he’s likely to continue to perform at a lower level than his classmates in law school. Students rarely “catch up” to their better-prepared classmates. Rather, as Rick Sander and Stuart Taylor detail in their book, Mismatch, these students are likely to fall further behind. When members of one racial group are mostly admitted with a racial preference, they start out in the lower part of the class, and they’re likely to stay there. That circumstance then is used as evidence of “systemic racism,” justifying even more preferences. And the cycle repeats.
    Increasingly, the expression of facts — not just opinions — that offend elite sensibilities are being weaponized against us. Truth is no longer a defense.
