Alejandro Mayorkas hates accountability

DHS Secretary Alejandro Mayorkas is doing his best to tell the American people that the border is secure. People aren't buying his BS, partially because he's lost his credibility on securing the border. Simply put, it isn't credible to say that the border is closed when deportations have sharply declined during the Biden administration compared with deportations during the last 2 FYs of the Trump administration.

ICE removed 72,177 illegal immigrants in FY 2022, slightly more than the 59,011 deported in FY 2021. Ice deported 185,884 illegal immigrants "in FY 20 (the last full fiscal year of the Trump administration) and 267,258 in FY 2019." This indicates that the Biden administration isn't serious about deporting illegal immigrants, especially considering the fact that 1,734,000+ illegal immigrants crossed the U.S.-Mexico border in FY2021 and another 2,378,000+ illegal immigrants crossed the U.S.-Mexico border in FY2022.

FYI- In the first 2 months of FY2023, 617,000+ illegal immigrants crossed that were apprehended, with another 240,000+ gotaways getting through in the first 2 months.

This is troubling:

On a call with reporters, ICE Acting Director Tae Johnson said that in FY22, "ICE dedicated significant resources to helping secure the southwest border and ensuring the processing of migrants."
This isn't border security. That's how the Biden administration opens the floodgates for illegal immigrants. It's rightly seen as attracting illegal immigrants. Why wouldn't illegal immigrants see this as proof that they won't even have to apply for asylum? This just verifies that they won't have to do anything except get across the border:

Tom Homan put it perfectly. This isn't incompetence. It's intentional. With this administration, it's all about doing the opposite of what Trump did. It doesn't matter whether Trump's policies were making U.S. families safer.

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
