Dangerous, sanctuary, BorderLine, Cities—A, game, lose0 comment

All across America, people are feeling the effects of four years of mass immigration parole programs and the release at the border of millions of aliens we know nothing verifiable about. Many aliens head for big cities that have adopted “sanctuary” policies, whereby their police officers and prosecutors don’t cooperate with federal authorities on immigration enforcement. The most common outcome of this noncooperation is that when Immigration and Customs Enforcement issues a detainer asking local law enforcement to hand over a suspect or convict rather than cut him loose, they…

Americans, even, black, Hispanic, Young, Broken, weren't, would, security, Social0 comment

I pull the following directly from the summary of the 2024 annual reports of the Social Security and Medicare Boards of Trustees: The Old-Age and Survivors Insurance (OASI) Trust Fund (that is, Social Security) will be able to pay 100% of total scheduled benefits until 2033, unchanged from last year’s report. At that time, the fund’s reserves will become depleted and continuing program income will be sufficient to pay 79% of scheduled benefits. Our Social Security system is broke.

Bragg also suggested the case could wait until Trump finishes his term in the White House.  “No current law establishes that a president’s temporary immunity from prosecution requires dismissal of a post-trial criminal proceeding that was initiated…

Wearing a plaid, button-down shirt and headphones, Jose Ibarra looked ahead and listened to an interpreter translate from English to Spanish as a friend of Laken Riley’s took the witness stand at the illegal alien’s trial for her murder.  “How would you describe your relationship with Laken?” a prosecuting attorney asked Lilly Steiner on Friday morning in an Athens, Georgia, courtroom.   “We were roommates, but the term ‘roommates’ is an overgeneralization of our relationship,” Steiner answered. “Our house was like a little family, and we called each other our family,” she testified,…

The following is an excerpt from Heritage Foundation President Kevin Roberts’ new book, “Dawn’s Early Light: Taking Back Washington to Save America,” released Nov. 12. Have you ever driven through a blizzard in Wyoming? Your field of vision doesn’t extend more than twenty feet. There are only the storm and the road, except for the occasional butte or buffalo.

DAILY CALLER NEWS FOUNDATION—Voters in Berkeley, California, soundly rejected a proposal that would have required owners of certain larger buildings to pay a fee in order to use natural gas.

It failed with 68.25% of voters moving to reject the measure, according to Alameda County election data. Environmentalists and labor unions advocated for “Measure GG” on the grounds that reducing emissions from buildings is imperative to fight climate…
