DHS whistleblower says border guards are ‘burned out’ from Biden policies

NY Post  "A Homeland Security whistleblower is offering a glimpse into how officers facing the brunt of the illegal immigration crisis are faring — saying Biden administration policies “were implemented  irresponsibly” by people who are removed from the situation on the ground and “do not have any sense of realism.”

"In an interview with Fox News‘ Sara Carter on “Hannity” Thursday evening, the unidentified DHS official, who spoke on condition of anonymity, expressed increasing frustration at the federal government’s handling of the situation.

" 'People are just very burned out and there’s not a lot of optimism that it’s going to get better anytime soon,” the unnamed official, a male, told Carter.

"The official went on to say that he was frustrated with President Biden’s border policies.

“ 'I think the policies were implemented irresponsibly and I think they do not have any sense of realism,” the man explained." . . .

Democrats to Americans: Screw you

And they somehow end up in office anyway.  Who should be "pushing back," Maxine?  Who should be taking to the streets in protest, Kamala?

Eric Utter  "A serious question: How is it that any Democrats ever get elected to national office?  Cheating now leaps to mind, but other than that?  Their policies fly in the face of the beliefs and values of a distinct and measurable majority of Americans. But they don't even care about the poll numbers.

• Most Americans are adamantly against defunding the police, African-Americans included.
• Most Americans are against Democrat plans to pack the Supreme Court.
• Most Americans are against leaving their border(s) open and rewarding those who choose to come here illegally by giving them free goods and services.
• Most Americans are against the concept and practice of unlimited immigration.
• At least a slight majority of Americans realize that abolishing the oil, gas, and coal industries and enacting the Green New Deal will destroy their nation's economy and dramatically worsen their lives — and those of their descendants.
• Most Americans do not believe that man-caused global warming/climate change is an existential threat to their country or the planet as a whole.
• The large majority of Americans are against late-term and "after-birth" abortions.

"Etc., etc., etc.

"And Democrats seemingly reply, "Frankly, Americans, we don't give a damn!"

Sharpton reveals the real goal

Sharpton built his career on being a reverend who led protests, often for incidents that were like the Goetz and Brawley cases.  Sharpton gets high praise from Biden's UN ambassador

Don Surber   "I am not sure if it was a gaffe or whether Al Sharpton believes the goal is a cinch now, but today he told the truth about the Democrat goal with their anti-police riots.

"They want to create a police state run by Washington.

"Via Breitbart, Sharpton told MSNBC, "I think that the possibility of change is absolutely there at this moment.

"I’ve talked to Congresswoman Bass. I’ve talked to Senator Cory Booker. There are conversations going with Tim Scott."

The plan is to capitalize on a yearlong PR campaign to federalize your local police.

"He said, "As you saw a conviction of Chauvin, and then you see during the trial, the killing of Daunte Wright, and now we have a situation we’re looking to see what it is in Ohio and North Carolina, all in this short period of time, Breonna Taylor and Ahmaud Arbery and all of these cases happened right around the time of George Floyd.

" 'If we can’t do it now, when will we ever be able to do it? I think the time has come for the nation to deal with it. President Biden and Vice President Harris have said it needs to be dealt with. We are seeing the absolute time that policing must be defined by the federal government. And if we don’t do it, we’ll continue to see these things, and it will end up tearing this society apart in an irreparable way."

"Sharpton's entire career has been devoted to undermining public confidence and trust in the police. He began by protesting the Bernard Goetz acquittal. On December 22, 1984, he shot four black men who tried to rob him on the subway." . . .

Former celebrity vocal coach shares how 'darkness' in Hollywood inspired album on spiritual warfare

 Christian Post  "A Hollywood celebrity vocal coach has shared how, after God opened her eyes to the “darkness” surrounding her in the secular music industry, she felt compelled to write a worship album focusing on spiritual warfare.

"For years, Kira Fontana worked as a successful vocal coach to major labels and shows such as Glee and The Voice. But the longer she spent in the music industry, the more disillusioned she became by the darkness she witnessed all around her. 

“ 'It’s darker than most people could ever imagine,” Fontana told The Christian Post. “If you look at the content of the lyrics of the songs that are played on the radio, it’s unbelievably immoral and dark and anti-Jesus. When I started to see the sheer percentage of songs and videos that were leaning heavily in that direction, I came to recognize that it could not be an accident. People in very powerful positions are backing it; there are gatekeepers who are wanting this content that we hear now to be prevalent in our society.”

“ 'It’s akin to poisoning our community, and our kids are drinking from a very, very, very destructive cup,” she said. “I saw the effect on kids as I worked in the city, and that effect is spreading. LA is the communication center for this planet; when you go to other countries, you still see content made in Los Angeles. It became a really heavy responsibility.”

"Though an unbeliever, Fontana felt a strong, invisible pull away from the secular music industry." . . .

“I think the song 'Refuge' will always have a special place in my heart because that's where God started to just redeem everything for me by giving me that song,” she said. “It’s such a declaration of who He is. No matter what's going on around us, if we are abiding in Him, we are safe and secure.”

 "Now, Fontana also serves as a Christian music producer and the founder of KINGDOM SOUND, a boutique music production company and record label.

CNN plans climate change town hall after staffer reveals plan to sell climate 'fear' in leaked recording

CNN plans climate change town hall after staffer reveals plan to sell climate 'fear' in leaked recording   "Technical director told Project Veritas climate change will be 'next COVID thing' for CNN"

"CNN is set to host a live town hall with senior Biden administration officials this weekend on the topic of climate change, weeks after a network employee told an undercover journalist the network planned to push "fear" about the issue.

"The town hall, moderated by CNN anchor Dana Bash, will focus on "The Climate Crisis" and will air on Friday night to mark this year's celebration of Earth Day, the network announced. 

"The participants include Special Presidential Envoy for Climate John Kerry, White House National Climate Advisor Gina McCarthy, Environmental Protection Agency Administrator Michael Regan and Energy Secretary Jennifer Granholm, all of whom will be asked about Biden's campaign promise to remake American climate policy. 

"Earlier this month, right-wing guerilla news outlet Project Veritas published a series of explosive conversations between one of its reporters and a CNN technical director named Charles Chester. In one of the conversations, Chester revealed that following the "COVID fatigue" from CNN's coverage of the pandemic, the network will "start focusing mainly on climate.' " . . .

""Our focus was to get Trump out of office," Chester said. "Without saying it, that's what it was, right? So our next thing is going to be for climate change awareness."

" 'Do you think it's going to be just like a lot of like fear for the climate?" the undercover journalist asked. 

" 'Yeah. Fear sells," Chester responded. 

" 'Who decides that?" the journalist asked. 

" 'The head of the network," Chester answered.

" 'Who's that? Is that Zucker?" she followed, referring to CNN President Jeff Zucker.

" 'Zucker, yeah," Chester replied. 

"In another exchange, Chester repeated that climate change is "going to be the next COVID thing for CNN" that "we're going to hone in on.' " . . .

Chester: “It's going to be our [CNN’s] focus. Like our focus was to get Trump out of office, right? Without saying it, that's what it was, right? So, our next thing is going to be for climate change awareness.” "

Chester: “We would always show shots of him [Biden] jogging and that [he’s] healthy, you know, and him in aviator shades. Like you paint him as a young geriatric.”

"Chester went on to say that COVID-19 media coverage should be coming to an end in the near future. He added that CNN is already preparing its shift in coverage to push and promote climate change fear." 

“ 'I think there's a COVID fatigue. So, like whenever a new story comes up, they're [CNN’s] going to latch onto it. They've already announced in our office that once the public is -- will be open to it -- we're going to start focusing mainly on climate,” Chester said.

"Chester: “It's going to be our [CNN’s] focus. Like our focus was to get Trump out of office, right? Without saying it, that's what it was, right? So, our next thing is going to be climate change awareness.”

"Veritas Journalist: “What does that look like?”

"Chester: “I don't know. I'm not sure. I have a feeling that it’s going to be like, constantly showing videos of decline in ice, and weather warming up, and like the effects it’s having on the economy--' ” . . .

The roots of this notion polluting our schools that it's racist to make a black student actually answer the question.

Dumbing down schools in the name of 'equity'  . . . "The intellectually gifted among us are a precious resource needing careful cultivation, for they create new knowledge that grows our economy and keeps our national defense strong.  This is so obvious that it ought not even need stating.

"Educating down to the level of the lowest common denominator will ultimately impoverish and militarily defeat us, a national catastrophe.  As Richard Baehr asks, rhetorically: "Do you think China will try this to achieve equity among its various peoples?' " . . .

   NO MORE TESTS: WE SHOULD MEASURE BLACK KIDS ON THEIR "DESIRE TO KNOW." (St. Ibram, 2019)

. . . "First, instead of emphasizing the kinds of racial differences that economists and sociologists usually study (parents’ economic resources, parents’ position in the occupational hierarchy, parents’ exposure to formal education, and parents’ living arrangements), successful theories will take more account of the factors that psychologists have traditionally emphasized (the way family members interact with one another and with the outside world, for example). A good explanation of why white five-year-olds have bigger vocabularies than black five-year-olds is likely to focus on how much the parents talk to their children, how they deal with their children’s questions, and how they react when their children either learn or fail to learn something, not on how much money the parents have.

"Second, instead of looking mainly for resource differences between predominantly black and predominantly white schools, successful theories will probably have to look more carefully at the way black and white children respond to the same classroom experiences, such as being in a smaller classroom, having a more competent teacher, having a teacher of their own race, or having a teacher with high expectations for those who perform below the norm for their age group.

"Successful theories will therefore have to pay more attention to psychological and cultural influences, which are much harder to measure than income, education, and living arrangements. Collecting accurate data on black and white parents’ habits, values, behavior, and ideas is not easy, and it would take time." . . . 

Is it racist to expect black kids to do math for real?   "Yes, serious people are arguing this. Make sure they don't infect your school district." . . .

No police to intervene: Where Are LeBron and the Media? 13-Year-Old Cincinnati Girl Stabbed to Death by Another 13-Year-Old Girl

RedState

"It is approximately 110 miles between Columbus, Ohio, and Cincinnati, Ohio.

"But apparently, news travels slowly between those two communities because LeBron James and the national media have not yet mentioned Monday’s death of 13-year-old  Nyaira Givens who was stabbed to death by another 13-year-old girl during a fight near her family’s home in Winton Hills, a suburb of Cincinnati.

"Givens’ father held her in his arms as the life drained away from her body, helpless to do anything to prevent her from dying.

“I held her. I watched her as she died. I watched her, you know. All I could do was just hold her, hold her,” Maurice Jackson said.

Devastation, heartache and loss are all emotions that Jackson, Nyaira Givens’ father, is feeling after her sudden death.

“I tried. I tried to stop the bleeding,” Jackson said.

"The 13-year-old Nyaira, a high school freshman, didn’t wake up Monday morning with the thought that it would be her last day on earth.  But she had been involved in a series of incidents with an “off-and-on” friend from school, and there was a confrontation between them on Monday afternoon.

"Her assailant, not named in the media because of her age, made her first appearance in court on Wednesday." . . .

Maxine Waters Gets Smoked by GOP Challenger in Viral Ad: 'Our District is in Ruins!'

 Neon Nettle

Republican congressional candidate Joe E. Collins III slams California Democrat

"GOP congressional candidate Joe E. Collins III, who is running for Waters' 43rd Congressional District, rolled out his new ad campaign over the weekend.

"In the ad, Collins, a Navy veteran who grew up in Waters’ south Los Angeles district, specifically targets his Democratic opponent.

"Collins highlights how Rep. Waters lives in a mansion outside of the 43rd Congressional District she represents while her constituents battle with poverty.

Speaking from outside Waters' $6 million mansion, Collins also detailed the many ways in which L.A. has declined in recent years.

"He reveals that the decline is thanks in large part to policies Waters has supported.

“Do you know where I am right now?” Collins says in a video depicting him walking up to Waters’ house."

“I was born right here in South L.A., in a place Maxine refuses to live,” Collins continues." . . .

Biden & Maxine Waters' Pre-Verdict Comments Eyed as Grounds for Chauvin's Appeal

Neon Nettle

"Conviction not set in stone as defense likely to use remarks to overturn guilty verdict"

"[Andrew C.] McCarthy said that Waters, who represents California, went to Minnesota "to interfere in its judicial system" in violation of a curfew.

"He argued that "her remarks can only be interpreted as an incitement to violence" and that she "ought to be under investigation."

"Biden had also weighed in on the case before the verdict was announced, telling reporters that he was "praying that verdict is the right verdict" and that "I think it's overwhelming, in my view."

"The president claimed that he only said this because the jury was already sequestered, but McCarthy argued that this  "is no excuse" for making those remarks." . . .

The term “JoeBama” is not a meme… It is a REALITY.

The Last Refuge  "Those behind the scene are using the Biden administration as an extension of the third term of Barack Obama.  Same people; same policies; same agenda, and same exact goals.   As a consequence U.S. Attorney General Merrick Garland is duplicating the exact same policy directives as former DOJ Attorney General Eric Holder.  The people in place are identical; the actions they take are identical; the purpose of their activity is identical.  The DOJ is politically weaponized to achieve ideological goals.

"The most recent example of the synergy happens today with AG Garland announcing a DOJ civil rights investigation into the Minneapolis police department.  Cut to the chase, the result of the investigation will be another municipal authority placed under a federal consent decree.  THAT will happen, the investigation to justify the consent decree is a farse.  This is JoeBama and the Chicago team replicating the same process.

"“Attorney General Merrick Garland today announced a new investigation into the Minneapolis Police Department and City of Minneapolis for possible pattern and practice unconstitutional actions. This investigation is not related to the already announced investigation into the murder of George Floyd, but is instead examining the entire department for continuous misconduct.' ”

In a post from Tuesday, Black Lives Matter alleged that black communities were better off under Trump than they are under President Joe Biden.

In Defense of Teenage Knife Fighting

Since when do we need the cops to intervene in the recreational stabbings of our youth?

Young skulls full of mush doing as they were programmed to do.

. . . "It’s hypocrisy, too. Who among us hasn’t come within a second or two of murdering someone else with a steak knife? My best friend in school, Bobby “The Blade” Simpson, used to throw shivs at the smaller kids in the music room. Did we need the authorities to step in when that happened? No, we did not. As MSNBC’s Joy Reid argued smartly on her show last night, pranks such as these were dealt with by our teachers — just as we all expected they would be. And if something went wrong? Well, that’s why we had substitutes.

"In all honesty, I worry that this sort of helicopter policing is making us weak. Back in my day, the people who survived a good stabbing came out stronger for it. I learned a lot of lessons from my time in the ring: self-reliance, how to overcome fear, the importance of agility, the basics of military field dressing. And, given the turnover, I also learned how to make new friends." . . .
