A Texas miracle: Alejandro Mayorkas finally admits the truth

DHS Secretary Alejandro Mayorkas sang a familiar-sounding tune when he defended Joe Biden's open borders policy. Mayorkas "attributed the rise in migration to violence, poverty and corruption in Central America, problems that he said the Biden administration is seeking to mitigate through foreign aid." This was attempted during the Trump administration. When it failed, President Trump cut off aid to the Northern Triangle. Then he threatened to impose tariffs on Mexico if they didn't start enforcing their borders.

This formula failed during the Clinton, Bush and Obama administrations. President Trump scrapped that pattern and tried something that hadn't been tried before. Trump negotiated an agreement with Mexico. It didn't take long for border crossings to slow to a trickle.

Joe Biden couldn't tolerate that. Anything with Trump's name on it was immediately jettisoned. It didn't matter that it was working. This chart shows who got it right (Trump) and who's been a failure (Biden):


CBP Enforcement Numbers for July 2021

The large number of expulsions during the pandemic has contributed to a larger-than-usual number of migrants making multiple border crossing attempts, which means that total encounters somewhat overstate the number of unique individuals arriving at the border.

The number of unique encounters in July 2021 was 154,288.

In total, there were 212,672 encounters along the Southwest Border, 27 percent of which involved individuals who had at least one prior encounter in the previous 12 months, compared to an average one-year re-encounter rate of 14 percent for Fiscal Years 2014-2019.

This video is 1,000 words from Secretary Mayorkas:
Mayorkas talks a good game but it's BS, according to the people working at the border. These might be the most honest words Mayorkas has said:
"A couple of days ago I was down in Mexico, and I said look, you know, if, if our borders are the first line of defense, we're going to lose and this is unsustainable," Mayorkas said Thursday, according to the audio obtained by Fox News' Bill Melugin through a Border Patrol source. "We can't continue like this, our people in the field can't continue and our system isn't built for it."

 Finally, the truth is spoken. It's a far cry from talking about facing and meeting challenges, etc. The question now is how long it takes for Jen Psaki to 'explain' that isn't what he actually meant. Now, Arizona Gov. Doug Ducey is calling on Sec. Mayorkas to resign:

"We can't have a defeatist fighting for our nation's border security. It's time for Sec. Mayorkas to resign, and he needs to be replaced with someone who will tell the truth publicly and stand up to the radical activists inside the Biden-Harris administration," Ducey tweeted Friday after Fox News first reported on the leaked audio. 
"Unlike Secretary Mayorkas, Arizonans understand that strong borders are essential to public safety and national security. The Biden-Harris administration’s record of failure on this issue has led to this moment. President Joe Biden and Vice President Kamala Harris, through their words and their actions, have signaled to the world that America’s southern border is wide open and unprotected."

Biden's cabinet is filled with incompetents. From Mayorkas to Lloyd Austin to Biden's CIA director, the proof is in the disasters that they're creating. Mayorkas is overseeing the US-Mexico border crisis. Austin and Burns are overseeing the collapse of Afghanistan. Harris can't be fired because she was elected, though she can be impeached.

Is Joe Biden our Grifter-in-Chief?

Image
Apparently, Joe Biden doesn't care about the law or Supreme Court rulings. When asked about the ruling on his student loan bailout, Biden said that the Supreme Court misinterpreted the Constitution. He knows they didn't. That's just what he said to preserve the opportunity to introduce his next unconstitutional plan that will get rejected by the Supreme Court. This isn't about whether it's constitutional. It's about whether he can con enough young people into voting for him in 2024. Biden must've anticipated this ruling. Within an hour of the ruling, the Administration was out with this detailed fact sheet to replace the plan that he knew would fail. It opens with the same partisan attack as Democrats have mouthed. The fact sheet opens by saying "No President has fought harder for student debt relief than President Biden, and he’s not done yet. President Biden and Vice President Harris will not let Republican elected officials succeed in denying hard

Tim Walz's Confederate Flag Fiasco

Image
After Minnesota's Democrats shoved the most controversial progressive legislation down Minnesotans' throats, gossip started popping up about Gov. Walz being interested in running for president . That's died off but Gov. Walz is still making headlines, this time for all the wrong reasons. First, Gov. Walz isn't the brightest bulb in the chandelier. Still, Gov. Walz is fighting against Minnesota's history. This Alpha News article quotes David Hann, the chairman of Minnesota's Republican Party, as saying " The flag the DFL has eliminated was a version of the historic flag our regiments fought under during the Civil War. Minnesota was the first state to offer troops to the Union cause in 1861 , beginning a long tradition of leading the nation in confronting injustice. The DFL quest to erase our history is repugnant and should be rejected." Gov. Walz, though, sees things differently. He's quoted as saying "Minnesota is a diverse state, it continue

Maria Bartiromo's interrogation of Gov. Ron DeSantis

Image
Yesterday, Maria Bartiromo interrogated Gov. Ron DeSantis on Sunday Morning Futures. The first half of the interview, Bartiromo asked policy questions. Gov. DeSantis showed his understanding of the issues and presented his solutions on everything from China, inflation and growing the economy. The first reply he had was to cut spending. His next reply was to open energy production. Third, he talked about the importance of increasing productivity, which he correctly said is the best way to eliminate inflation. A little over half the way through the interview, though, it turned into an attack. Bartiromo asked "I'm wondering what's going on with your campaign. There was a lot of optimism about you running for president earlier in the year but here's this weekend's headline from the Politico Playbook: Failure to launch. Gov. Ron DeSantis's campaign to topple Donald Trump has stalled. We are way behind says a top DeSantis PAC official. What happened? Despite that bad
