Sanctuary Cities Are Reaping What They Sowed

 The Daily Wire

Letter: Sanctuary cities are reaping what they sow | Editorial | riponpress.com

"Aren’t New York City and DC sanctuary cities?

" 'So why is NYC’s Mayor Adams and DC’s Mayor Browser upset that Texas Governor Abbott is transporting buses of illegal aliens to their cities?

"Abbott invited both mayors to the southern border to see firsthand how “[southern border towns] are being overrun by people illegally crossing.”

"Their response was, “…instead of a photo-op, we hope Governor Abbot will focus his energy and resources on providing support to asylum seekers…”

"In 2019, Adams said, “NYC will remain a sanctuary city.”

"But now he is saying, “…Abbott is anti-American. ... He is betraying American ideals.”

"Adams had the audacity to ask for federal funding because of the illegal immigrants bused to NYC.

"Browser said when she was elected, “We respect all DC residents no matter their immigration status.”

"But now she is saying, “[the number of migrants] has reached a tipping point…local taxpayers should not pick up the tab.”

"Biden’s policies and those in sanctuary cities cause this unprecedented increase in illegal immigration. 4,000 people daily — on average — illegally enter, so why should border town citizens pick up the tab?

"Why should sanctuary cities receive federal resources to fund housing, medical care, education, etc., for people who enter illegally when border towns don’t?

"More than 2 million people illegally entered this fiscal year according to U.S. Customs and Border Protection. There are still 2 months left this fiscal year.

"This doesn’t even include the estimated 1 million “got aways.” And 1.8 million people illegally crossed in fiscal year 2021.

"How else can Abbott get Biden and the Democrats’ attention?" . . .

Network Wants to Giver Tucker a Job — And It's Way Bigger Than His Old Show -

"The conservative media outlet Newsmax doesn’t simply want to give Carlson a show, they reportedly want him to run the entire channel.

"TMZ reported that “sources with direct knowledge” confirmed that Newsmax is “floating the idea of letting him program the whole channel, not just his own show.”

Sen. Tim Scott officially throws his hat in the ring – and does an impressive interview on FOX News

 The man also thinks that fatherlessness in the black community is a problem. Again, until someone addresses that, things won’t get better. Andrea Widberg

Peter Barry Chowka - American Thinker

Biden will refer to Tim Scott as a white supremacist in three...two...one...

. . ."Scott’s interesting and impressive background and career are reasonably and fairly objectively documented at his Wikipedia bio. The lengthy page and the references it cites are a compelling read. My impression of Scott over the years, confirmed by the chronology and highlights of his career, is that he is a man of deep conviction who is extremely articulate in expressing his conservative viewpoint.

"And so it was when he appeared on the FOX News channel Monday evening (video here). Needless to say, he received a cordial reception from his former Republican colleague in the Congress, Trey Gowdy, who was guest hosting the hour on FOX for the first of five nights from New York City.  On Sunday nights for the past year, Gowdy has hosted Sunday Night in America from Charleston, S.C., on FOX at 7 PM ET, sometimes repeated later in the evening.

"Gowdy, an attorney and former prosecutor, is a skillful interviewer, and the transcript of his conversation with Scott, provided by FOX News, is an interesting read. In particular, Scott is capable of taking excellent advantage of the brief time that is allotted to most guests on the cable news channels. And so it was yesterday evening.". . .

Observations from Sen. Tim Scott’s presidential candidacy announcement UPDATED -Andrea Widberg   . . ."Scott’s values are conservative. He’s deeply religious, and he believes in a post-racial America. He says that all able-bodied people should work, that we need a strong border, that the economy must be unchained, that we need to unleash America’s ability to produce energy, that our military must be the strongest in the world, that the police matter (especially in poor communities beset by crime), and that our children should be educated not indoctrinated. The only hot conservative issue that he didn’t touch upon was transgenderism, although I felt that fell under the “educated, not indoctrinated” rubric.". . .

Tim Scott fires back at 'The View's racially charged attacks: 'My life disproves the lies of the radical left' (msn.com)

. . ."On the left-leaning talk show, "The View" host Whoopi Goldberg suggested Scott has "Clarence Thomas syndrome." Thomas, a conservative U.S. Supreme Court justice from neighboring Georgia, has long been attacked by the left for not toeing what they believe is the proper jurisprudential line based on his skin color.

"Goldberg's co-host Sunny Hostin further claimed one of Scott's "issues" is that he believes because he "made it" coming from an impoverished Black family in the South, "everyone can make it.' " . . .

The easy way to identify the Loony Left -

 American Thinker  "If you have ever wondered how to instantly identify the Loony Left and its modicum of core mental competency and sanity, you have to wonder no more. Leftists have just made it much easier." . . .

It overwhelmed them down under in Australia

. . ."The true leftist identifier has now moved from style to the actual words they speak. Republicans and even middle-of-the-road Americans speak in coherent sentences. We are able to elucidate our points clearly. We then listen to the other side. Assuming the other side is intelligent, informed, and has bathed that week, we can usually have a meaningful discussion with them. Of course, forget Dems in DC. Trying to teach Mumbles, Giggles, or Fetterman to speak coherently would be like trying to teach a pig to dance: It will never work, and it just angers the pig.

"The new radical left can only speak by chanting some phrase, usually translated from one of Trotsky’s diatribes against the West. All that leftists do is repeat the same senseless phrase over and over.". . .

‘Reverend’ Al Sharpton Outdoes Himself in Disgraceful Display During Jordan Neely Funeral

 Watch: ‘Reverend’ Al Sharpton Outdoes Himself in Disgraceful Display During Jordan Neely Funeral – RedState

Will Maxine Waters lead Congressional Democrats in worshipful kneeling?

"Neely, a 30-year-old homeless man with an extensive arrest record, died on May 1st after being subdued by multiple passengers on a New York City subway for allegedly behaving in an aggressive and threatening manner, saying he was hungry and didn’t care if he got arrested.

"24-year-old Marine Daniel Penny, seen in the video clip putting Neely in what some have called a “submission hold” or “headlock,” has been charged by woke Manhattan District Attorney Alvin Bragg with second-degree manslaughter over Neely’s death, though some witnesses have described Penny as a “hero.”

"As per the norm, Sharpton, who is a failed Democratic presidential candidate, made himself the center of the spotlight rather than Neely, lapping up the attention he got from the press and onlookers shortly before the Harlem service started:

"In true Sharpton fashion, he grotesquely politicized Neely’s death, criticizing Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis for referring to Penny as a “Good Samaritan” during a service that looked like it had more reporters in attendance than members of the community:

"Sharpton, infamous in NYC circles for inciting deadly race riots, engaging in anti-Semitism, and foisting racially-tinged rape hoaxes on the American populace, then declared without evidence that “Jordan was not annoying someone on the train,” even though multiple witnesses have described Neely’s behavior as erratic and threatening.". . .

OK, Dems. Let’s apply the George Santos standard to everyone

And if George Santos is to be removed from Congress, he must be joined by the removal of all House Democrats who pushed theTrump/Russia collusion fabrication, discredited by The Durham Report, intended to undermine the presidential election of November 8, 2016.

American Thinker  "Democrats are trying to expel Republican George Santos from Congress, depriving the GOP of one quarter of its majority in the House of Representatives.

"The New York Times, in its May 21 editorial, calls on House Republicans to remove Rep. George Santos because, as the title of the print version of the editorial, he deceived voters. The print version of this New York Times ploy to narrow the gap between House Democrat and Republicans is: "G.O.P LEADERS MUST HOLD SANTOS ACCOUNTABLE FOR DECEIVING VOTERS."      

"The online title asks, "Why is George Santos Still in Office?"

"But why are so many House Democrats who regularly deceive voters still in office?

"On the matter of voter deception, first The New York Times must return its Pulitzer for its reporting of the false Trump Russia collusion story.   Until that Pulitzer returned, this award represents serious honor to baseless reportage.". . .

The FBI: we hardly knew ya

 

Durham report: FBI criticised by special counsel for Trump-Russia inquiry - BBC News

"A long-awaited report has strongly criticised the FBI's handling of its investigation into alleged ties between Russia and the 2016 Trump campaign.

"In a 306-page report, special counsel John Durham said the agency's inquiry lacked "analytical rigor".

"He concluded the FBI had not possessed evidence of collusion between Donald Trump's campaign and Russia before launching an inquiry.

"The FBI said it had addressed the issues highlighted in the report.

"In the report, Mr Durham - who was appointed by then-Attorney General William Barr in 2019 - accused the FBI of acting on "raw, unanalysed and uncorroborated intelligence"." . . .

Sen. Johnson: Whistleblower Allegations Reveal Corrupt FBI Undermined Hunter Bid... (senate.gov)    . . ." For nearly two years I have sought to get information from the FBI and the Office of the Director of National Intelligence (ODNI) about the purpose of, and who ordered, this briefing.  On May 3, 2021, Senator Grassley and I reiterated these requests in a letter to Directors Wray and Haines.[4]  Both failed to provide complete responses.[5]

"The inability of FBI and ODNI to be transparent with Congress on this matter and other matters relating to Hunter Biden is deeply concerning.  Once again, the FBI’s integrity has been called into question.  If these whistleblower allegations are accurate, how can your agency, Director Wray, be capable of investigating the president’s son?  Unfortunately, the FBI can no longer be trusted to investigate Hunter Biden with integrity and the equal application of law. 

"Attorney General Garland, you have failed to provide Senator Grassley and me with assurances that any DOJ investigation into Hunter Biden’s potential criminal activity will be free of conflicts of interest.  The American people should not have to tolerate your silence any longer.". . .

The Race Industry

 White People Told They Are Not Welcome at BLM-Inspired Play (breitbart.com)

"White theatregoers in London were urged to stay away from a play about African American history so that black audience members could enjoy the performance “free from the white gaze”.

"The Theatre Royal Stratford East, in east London, has caused uproar after it told white people to stay away from a “Black Out” performance of the Tambo & Bones play on July 5.

"Although the theatre claimed that “no one is excluded”, it went on to make it abundantly clear that white people would not be welcome at the performance that tells the story of a pair of African Americans on a journey from mistrels to rappers, who ultimately join the Marxist Black Lives Matter movement.

“ 'While this performance has been arranged for Black audience members specifically, no one is excluded from attending,” a description for the ‘Black Out’ evening on the theatre’s website stated.

“ 'A Black Out night is the purposeful creation of an environment in which an all-black-identifying audience can experience and discuss an event in the performing arts, film, and cultural spaces – free from the white gaze,” the theatre explained." . . .

In comments provided to The Telegraph newspaper, Britain’s first black police and crime commissioner (PCC), Festus Akinbusoye said that excluding people based on race would “poor and dangerous precedent” and therefore “strongly urged” the theatre and director to cancel the ‘Black Out’ event.

Rep. Cori Bush Calls for Reparations as a 'Moral and Legal Obligation' – RedState  

"Every so often, the race industry in America — let’s call it what it is — seemingly feels like they are not getting enough attention, and so they come forward with some new absurd way to get that attention, apparently clinging to the notion that there is no such thing as bad publicity. The latest to attempt that is far-left congressional squad member, Rep. Cori Bush (D-MO). Bush has glommed onto an idea that is certainly not new and is hugely unpopular with roughly half the country. But Bush has decided to give it the old college try and float it once again. On Wednesday, Bush proposed a federal reparations program for black Americans. In this latest incarnation, the plan would cost roughly $14 trillion." . . . 

. . ."As is usual in the race industry, Cori Bush portrays herself as a victim. She rose to prominence in the summer of 2020 after the death of George Floyd, and many of the nation’s cities were plagued with violent protests. Bush led a mob of protesters onto a gated St. Louis street where they were met by Mark and Patricia McCloskey, armed and prepared to defend their home. When Missouri Gov. Parson pardoned the McCloskeys after they were charged with fourth-degree assault and misdemeanor harassment, Bush vowed that “their day will come.” . . .

MSNBC labels Ron DeSantis ‘pro-white supremacy’ - American Thinker   "When a potential GOP presidential candidate has a brilliant track record -- so attractive that new residents flee Dem-ruled areas to his state by the hundreds of thousands, and he turns a narrow first term victory into a double-digit rout for re-election -- the Dems realize they have a major problem looming.  It’s time to roll out charges of “racism” using the current approved terminology, “white supremacy,” as signaled by Joe Biden at his Howard University commencement speech.

"Naturally, being racists themselves and in command of the academic hierarchy, they need a talking head who is both black and the holder of academic credentials to launch the charge. Enter MSNBC and Dr. Basil Smikle Jr.:" . . .  The Joy Reid/ Joe Scarborough Channel

That was also the point of the FBI declining to prosecute Hillary for her deleted emails. Those emails between her and Obama were enough to get them all hung for treason. Remember Hillary’s words from 2016, “If that bastard (Trump) wins, we all hang from nooses.”

 Durham: FBI Dropped 4 Different Probes into Clinton Family Ahead of 2016 › American Greatness (amgreatness.com)        

 "One of the claims made by Special Counsel John Durham in his official report is that the FBI dropped at least four criminal investigations into Bill and Hillary Clinton just before the 2016 election.

"According to the New York Post, the FBI had previously been investigating attempts by multiple foreign nations and other foreign entities to influence the Clinton family through donations to their non-profit, the Clinton Foundation, as well as donations to Hillary’s failed 2016 presidential campaign.

"Three of the four investigations, all launched in early 2016, were investigating whether or not the Clinton Foundation had become a hub of “criminal activity.” These probes originated out of the field offices in Washington D.C., New York City, and Little Rock, Arkansas. The
investigative efforts included audits into the allegedly charitable foundation.

"Durham’s report states that two of the investigations, in Little Rock and New York, were looking into claims that a commercial industry had “likely engaged a federal public official in a flow of benefits scheme, namely, large monetary contributions were made to a non-profit, under both direct and indirect control of the federal public official, in exchange for favorable government action and/or influence.' ” . . .

The FBI’s Keystone Cops According to John Durham | The Heritage Foundation  . . ."The FBI’s missteps included not even checking with their “own experienced Russian analysts,” who would have informed the investigators that they had no information “about Trump being involved with Russian leadership officials.” They also didn’t check with other intelligence analysts at “the CIA, NSA, and the Department of State.”

"The findings in the Durham report about just how extensively the FBI mishandled the Crossfire Hurricane investigation are devastating to its reputation as a law enforcement agency. They come on top of the damaging reports of a series of recent whistleblowers about the bias and unprofessionalism within its ranks and leadership on everything from the Hunter Biden investigation to its possible use of informants inside Catholic Churches. 

"The consequences of its bungling in Crossfire Hurricane were monumental. The agency ruined the professional careers and personal lives of many innocent individuals like Carter Page and caused a multimillion-dollar, taxpayer-funded investigation by Special Counsel Robert Mueller that, in many respects, crippled the Trump administration during much of his presidency over the dogged and persistent fraudulent claim that his campaign had conspired with the Russians to rig the 2016 presidential election.". . .

WNBA's Brittney Griner: 'I Definitely Want to Stand' for the National Anthem

 “Just being able to hear my national anthem, see my flag, I definitely want to stand. Now everybody that will not stand or not come out, I totally support them 100 percent. That’s our right, as an American in this great country,” she said.

Breitbart   "WNBA star Brittney Griner is finally speaking out personally after her sports rep published an op-ed explaining why she will stand for the national anthem after years of protesting it.

"On Friday, for the first time in years, Griner stood for the national anthem ahead of the Phoenix Mercury’s 94-71 loss against the Los Angeles Sparks.

"After the game, Griner explained why she stood, according to Fox News.

“You have the right to protest, the right to able to speak out, question, challenge and do all these things,” Griner said. “What I went through and everything, it just means a little bit more to me now. So I want to be able to stand. I was literally in a cage [in Russia] and could not stand the way I wanted to.”. . .

. . ."Now that she is safely back in the U.S.A., though, Griner is saying that the anthem “definitely hit different” to her than it once did.

"Imagine that."

Daniel Penny Deserves A Medal, Not Jail Time

 The Federalist

"His legal torment is a brutal new form of reparations. He is from that most hated class of people in America: the white male."

"Who can forget then-President Barack Obama’s plaintive love letter about Trayvon Martin, a teenage burglar killed during a struggle with neighborhood vigilante George Zimmerman in 2012? Obama said: “If I had a son, he’d look like Trayvon.”

"Well, 24-year-old Daniel Penny looks like he could be my future son-in-law. 

"May 12, almost two weeks after the decorated American Marine Daniel Penny heroically intervened to save strangers from imminent attack by a lunatic bent on hurting someone, the West Islip native was arrested, handcuffed, and perp-walked out of a Manhattan police precinct. He was released after posting $100,000 bail. I wrote about him here. 

"Because the violent schizophrenic — or as The New York Times slobbered, “a gifted Michael Jackson impersonator who captivated commuters with his fluent moonwalking” — died following the incident, Penny stands accused of second-degree manslaughter. If the district attorney, left-wing fanatic Alvin Bragg, gets his way, Penny will get sent up the river and spend 15 years at Sing Sing. 

"Meanwhile, our favorite Neiman Marxist, Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez, is enjoying a string of wins. She’s claimed one more scalp for her growing trophy collection. Bored of her vanity campaign to “tax the rich,” as her Met Gala gown declared last year, she’s taken up a new hobby: bringing men she doesn’t like to heel — under her $1,000 Christian Louboutin pumps.

"Recall that Ocasio-Cortez recently went on TV to demand that Fox News remove its biggest star, Tucker Carlson, from the air. Just like magic, Fox canceled Tucker’s show a couple of days later. 

"She’d already bagged the big elephant when Donald Trump himself was arrested by regime stooge and George Soros pet Bragg. Now, a week after she accused Penny of murder on her Twitter feed, she has a third scalp nailed to the wall of her office: one with Homeric blond curls." . . . 

Chicago subway passengers subdue violent, threatening, apparently deranged half-naked man with ‘chokehold’ as security guards stand by -Thomas Lifson

"When the police fail to protect the citizenry, vigilantism is the inevitable response. Self-defense is not only a natural, God-given right, it is an imperative that drives behavior, even in the face of adverse consequences. The well-publicized arrest of Daniel Penny for protecting fellow subway passengers in New York City did not deter passengers on Chicago’s’ Blue Line subway at Grand Station from forcibly subduing an apparently deranged man, who apparently had turned violent."  What do you say, AOC?

"I fear more such incidents are on the way to becoming the norm, as civil society continues to crumble and the law of the jungle comes to characterize Democrat-run cities. "

Map Tracks Illegal Aliens Biden Regime Is Strategically Placing Across America... Are They Moving To Your Community? |

 The Gateway Pundit | by Patty McMurray   "America faces an unprecedented wave of illegal immigration after the Biden administration chose to repeal Title 42, a pandemic-era order that allowed for the expedited expulsion of illegal immigrants.". . .

100 Percent Fed Up reports – A conservative-leaning organization has published a map showing people where the tens of thousands of illegal aliens that are coming in daily are being resettled, and for all of the news about how the illegals crossing our border are being settled in Democrat-run sanctuary cities, you might be surprised to see where the majority of them are headed once they leave the left-leaning NGOs who are responsible for facilitating the aggressive, and seemingly unstoppable invasion of America.

"The Heritage Oversight Project and Heritage Border Security and Immigration Center, partnered to track where Non-Governmental Organizations (NGOs) are resettling migrants as the Biden administration has been forced to largely delegate the task due to an unsustainable number of migrants crossing the border.

"Unsurprisingly, the map shows that immigrants are largely choosing to settle in Texas, where much of the migration crisis is occurring along the southern border of the state.". . .
