[We must never forget that Biden inherited the most secure border in our history, which he opened up to 11,000,000 illegal aliens that have poured in during the 3 years of his administration.  In the interval he has continued to declare the border β€œsecure”, but now declares the border crisis to be Trump’s fault.  Talk about being the nation’s mega-liar who has successfully bamboozled the intellectually challenged half of the nation’s population.  gjr]

    Looks like Trump was right you just dont know who these people are or what they are –
    The illegal immigrants who fled to California after allegedly assaulting a pair of New York City police officers are part of a wider conspiracy of stealing phones to make lavish purchases in their home countries, according to a New York Post report.
    A police source told the Post the illegal immigrants routinely steal phones and use the Apple Pay and credit card information inside to purchase cars, pools and other luxuries back home.
    “They’re buying cars back in Ecuador and Venezuela,” the police source told the Post. “They’re putting pools in their homes there. All this money is going back and forth. That’s why the larcenies are going out of control. It’s unbelievable what they’re doing.”
    Four men involved in the attack on police last week had their bus tickets to California paid for by taxpayers.
    The city’s Office of Emergency Management has been supplying travel vouchers to migrants who approach participating nonprofit groups and ask for help leaving the overburdened city, according to law enforcement sources. Those vouchers can be used for various means of transportation, including buses.
    A handful of the suspects in the shocking attack, after being freed without bail, are believed to have swapped immigration numbers with other people at their shelter and used the misappropriated identities to obtain vouchers and tickets under fake names, a law enforcement source told Fox News Digital last week.

    Kamala Harris ratings continue to plummet as 2024 presidential election nears: poll
    Harris, who has largely witnessed a decline in support since taking office in Jan. 2021, is now viewed negatively by a combined 53% of registered voters, according to the results of a national NBC News poll released Sunday. only a combined 28% said they hold a net positive view of the vice president β€” a four point drop

    “I believe the United States has no right to exist.”Y’all the demons. Y’all are the villains. We’ve been trying to end y’all. Get free of y’all.”
    Gross’ curriculum materials have been used in numerous schools. “Woke Kindergarten” is described on its website as “supporting children, families, educators and organizations in their commitment to abolitionist early education and pro-black and queer and trans liberation.”
    The “Woke Kindergarten” leader also called for schools to be abolished.
    Gross also believes that there are extraterrestrial beings that are oppressed.
    “Solidarity with all oppressed BEINGS. That’s what I meant, how I feel and what I should have said. Human, non-human animal & extraterrestrial alike. Universally. Infinitely. Always,” Gross posted on Twitter.
    Glassbrook Elementary in Hayward, California, spent $250,000 in federal funds provided by a program meant to help boost test scores for some of the country’s lowest-performing schools, according to the San Francisco Chronicle. But after two years with “Woke Kindergarten,” students’ scores are reportedly worse.

    Speaker Dufus Johnson rides again,
    Trolls for Trump fall flat on their faces.
    When one of the most stinging defeats of his short tenure arrived Tuesday, Speaker Mike Johnson had put himself front and center in the House chamber, standing in front of the speaker’s ceremonial chair on the upper tier of the rostrum to gavel it down.
    “As Republicans tanked their own bid to impeach Alejandro Mayorkas, the homeland security secretary, Johnson, who minutes before had been buttonholing holdouts on the House floor, was the face of the failure, a slightly panicked look on his face and his cheeks flushed as he announced the loss.” – NYT

    The courts will be delivering another blow to creepy grampa joe and those who worship at the altar of global warming –
    The top state officials, led by Kansas Attorney General Kris Kobach, penned a letter to Biden and Energy Secretary Jennifer Granholm, listing a series of federal statutes the administration’s recent actions allegedly violate and urging the pair to immediately reverse course. The AGs further argued that the policy pausing LNG exports would harm national security and have negative economic impacts.
    “Instead of addressing America’s real energy challenges, your administration has decided to double down on a reckless environmental agenda through this TikTok-inspired β€˜pause,’” they wrote in the letter. “But this surprise freeze is (1) unlawful, (2) harmful to our economy, and (3) detrimental to our national security. It emboldens and empowers Iran and Russia, while further hampering our ability to protect ourselves.”

    No doubt most everyone has heard about the report by the gubmint on The Adventures of Biden and the Secret Papers.
    The quotes cracked me up:
    “We also believe some of the same evidence that supports reasonable doubt for
    the classified Afghanistan documents also supports reasonable doubt for the
    notebooks, including Mr. Biden’s cooperation with the investigation, his diminished
    faculties in advancing age, and his sympathetic demeanor. These factors likely
    make it difficult for jurors to conclude he had criminal intent. ”
    “Mr. Biden’s apparent lapses and failures in February and April
    2017 will likely appear consistent with the diminished faculties and faulty memory
    he showed in Zwonitzer’s interview recordings and in our interview of him.
    Therefore, we conclude that the evidence does not establish that Mr. Biden willfully
    disclosed national defense information to Zwonitzer. ”

    re: fishemery@7:46AM
    I have to admit that JHK’s Friday column asked a question that I’ve wondered about, and think is one of the great unreported stories…
    ” The disclosure raises not a few uncomfortable questions. If Mr. Biden’s declining mental condition was apparent to federal attorneys interviewing him β€” admittedly not top psychologists β€” then wouldn’t the same picture present itself to the scores of assistants and subalterns busy toiling with the president around the clock for three years in the White House? Not to mention the myriad other government officials, agency heads, corporate nabobs, and news media notables streaming through the Oval Office every hour of the day? And yet, every last one of them has gone along with the pretense that Mr. Biden is doing just fine and is capable of running for reelection. Weird, a little bit.
    If there has been any discussion about Mr. Biden being in possession of the so-called β€œnuclear football,” the briefcase full of launch codes for our arsenal of missiles and bombers, it has gone unnoticed in the press. I suppose a conspiracy to suppress that chatter would be labeled a β€œconspiracy theory,” which also suggests that Mr. Biden’s mental deficiencies have somehow infected the entire body politic of the USA. That is, much of the whole US population is mentally unwell, living in a national hall of mirrors. How did that happen? Is it possible that there are branches of our government dedicated to driving the population crazy. . . a kind of ordeal-by-gaslight?
    That impression was only reinforced by listening to the president of our supposed adversary, Russia, Mr. Putin, in his confab with independent journalist Tucker Carlson. For one thing, Mr. Putin dared to express the likelihood that somebody, or group of somebodies, must be secretly running the executive branch of America’s government behind the mentally vacant figurehead β€œPresident Biden,” but Mr. Putin would not venture to guess who that might be.”
    https://kunstler.com/clusterfuck-nation/eventful-events/
    “Mr. Putin would not venture to guess who that might be.”
    No doubt his intelligence services know a helluva lot more about the matter than I do, but seriously, who is driving the bus?

    The Lt. Governor of Texas is so…well, Texan. The failed sports bar owner, former MAGA/Texan (everything is more wackadoodle in Texas politics) has uncovered another Deep State conspiracy,
    β€œI’ve said for over a year many times that Joe Biden would not be on the ticket and Michelle Obama would be the likely nominee. It’s clear the Democrat deep state run by Barack Obama knew they had to take him down to give them a chance in November. They set him up in the report calling him a β€œsympathetic, well-meaning, elderly man with a poor memory.” They could have protected him by putting him in the Oval Office to read a statement with no press questions. Instead, they sent him out and fed him to a press – where he was a total embarrassment. He doesn’t have a memory and Kamala doesn’t have a brain. Now they have a real problem.”
    So, MAGA believes George Soros, Barack Obama, Michelle Obama and Taylor Swift are deep state operatives pulling Biden’s strings.

    Biden can’t win in November β€” nor will Democrats succeed down-ballot β€” so long as his administration is seen as having created a national crisis that undermines the economic and social stability of cities and states across the country, especially New York.
    Unless Biden makes a concerted effort to restrict the now porous border, tighten the asylum process and make migrant deportation a very high priority, his party’s chances will be vastly diminished in 2024.
