At least some of the Border Protection refused the bribe

"Lawmakers proposed significant assistance to the agency for its efforts to quintuple that workforce, including by boosting base pay for General Schedule positions by 15%"

Typical Dems

when they want the votes they offer taxpayer money to bribe needed support.

obviously they thought this sell out would get BP agents on board to support the bill.

I need the citation for this.  Do you have it handy?

Homeland Security, Mike Gallagher R-Wisc
« Reply #3004 on: February 07, 2024, 06:25:56 PM »
Mike Gallagher is otherwise one of the good ones but here he is 1 of the 4 R's who voted No on Mayorkas impeachment.

In the WSJ he explains, subscription required,  this will start the practice of impeaching each other's cabinet members.

Good point but with due respect, isn't that door already opened with 98% of Republican members on record voting for impeachment?

What Biden and the Democrats admitted in the previous border security bill
« Reply #3006 on: February 13, 2024, 07:19:32 AM »
"If the border can be shut down when more than 5,000 illegal immigrants cross per day, then why can’t it be shut down immediately, right now?"

https://www.realclearpolitics.com/articles/2024/02/12/the_one_border_question_dems_cant_answer_150479.html#2

Put another way, yes it can.  They don't want to.  And they left provisions in the bill to NOT shut the border down even when those targets, a million illegals a year, are surpassed.

70% of Americans want the border secured.  Democrats in power in Washington don't.  Too bad Americans don't control the White House and Senate, or even the Senate Republican leadership.

Just saw a memeD"

"Number of illegal alien military age males entered during Biden, now outnumber the our military 6-1." 

Is this accurate?

Helluva a bulletpoint to toss into a conversation if so.

Homeland in-Security, Border left open, now flying them in
« Reply #3019 on: March 05, 2024, 05:46:50 AM »
It's year 12 of Obama Biden, year 16 if you count their control of the deep state during the Trump first term, it's hard to surprise, shock or outrage anyone with news of a new scandal. We had Fast and Furious, IRS Targeting and the Deep State Targeting of all things Trump.

Now, right while they divert attention on border security with an unneeded Senate bill, we find out they are flying 'migrants' in illegally by the hundreds of thousands.

https://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-13155765/biden-illegal-migrant-flying-program-national-security-vulnerability.html

Talk about high crimes, I would call this Article One in the impeachment case of Biden Harris. Let the Biden family corruption case drop to Article Two.

Can it get any more outrageous than this?

 :x

This would should be all over the news today and going forward.
Congress needs to haul Myorkas ass right back into their chambers.

A good point to make clearly:  Congress sets the rules and the President must enforce them.

80% of girls women crossing Mexico to US raped, 2014 data
« Reply #3028 on: March 15, 2024, 08:58:30 AM »
I am trying to address the SNL skit point that Sen Britt bringing up a brutal rape out of the blue at her kitchen table is funny. Who would ever do that?

Dems say that point is moot because those rapes happened years ago (not under Biden).

But years ago the flow of illegals was small compared to now.

I want to do some math with this but the real question is true or false:
Is systematic rape and human trafficking, sex trafficking a significant part of this southern border flood?
Of course it is.
https://www.huffpost.com/entry/central-america-migrants-rape_n_5806972
This study says 80% raped. Other studies say 60% raped. Repeatedly raped seems to be a better description from those interviewed.

If 10 million come in under Biden and half are female and half of those are getting raped say an average of twice, isn't that 5 million rapes?  Change the assumptions any way you want and it is still MILLIONS OF RAPES.

Now back to Senator Britt. The symbolic point of kitchen table setting combined with national political speech is to bring up the national issues of the day.  Border is number one for many, and otherwise certainly top 3 nationally.  The human trafficking component of that is numbe one or at least top 3 reasons to address the flow across the border. Millions of rapes is an uncomfortable fact that liberals would be up in arms about if it was happennig in Sudan or Zimbabwe. But here it runs up against political forces, the issue could hurt our guy, and therefore must be kept silent.

Sen Britt put it back in their face. We know this is happening right now, millions of rapes under Bien's failed policies empowering cartels and luring the massive flow.

Hey liberals and Leftists, we on the right want to know why this is political, or humorous.  Why are you not outraged? Why don't you want it stopped?

If we cannot come together on this we will defeat you over it because no amount of evasion, diversion or political spin makes what's happening acceptable.
-----
Secondly, fentanyl is killing millions.  "nearly 100,000 Americans who die from fentanyl imported across open borders"

Thirdly, illegals are filling the low end jobs, removing the bottom rung of the economic ladder for the underclass we already have, making them permanent underclass.

If we can't come together on this, we share no common values at all.

Lara and Michael Yon definitely are at the conspiracy end of things (not to mention the anti-Israel thing), and here she gets it wrong when she says that harbor pilot was not used- but OTOH a rather large amount of conspiracy theories have been born out in recent years- including more than a few of theirs.

If her theory were right, would the powers that be

a) realize it? and
b) tell us if they did?

(3) STATES COPY TEXAS’ SB 4 AFTER SCOTUS GIVES GREEN LIGHT: Iowa, Missouri, Kansas, and Louisiana are working to pass state laws that copy Texas’ Senate Bill (SB) 4, allowing state authorities to arrest illegal immigrants and punish them with jail time, fines, or deportation after the Supreme Court of the United States (SCOTUS) allowed Texas to begin enforcing SB 4.

Iowa Governor Kim Reynolds said, “States have stepped in to secure the border.” “Americans deserve nothing less. I look forward to signing SF 2340 into law.”

Why It Matters: The Biden administration and Democratic operatives will very likely file lawsuits against these state immigration laws. A circuit split would likely push SCOTUS to accelerate the timeline of the Biden administration or state appeals and will very likely decide against these state immigration laws. More Red State Coalition states adopting these laws will likely push illegal immigrants to blue states, increasing Democrat-held seats in the House and Electoral College votes after the 2030 census and redistricting. – R.C.

FO: CISA releases infrastructure hack reporting rules
« Reply #3036 on: March 28, 2024, 08:43:10 AM »
(4) CISA RELEASES FIRST CRIT. INFRASTRUCTURE HACK REPORTING RULES: The Cybersecurity and Infrastructure Security Agency (CISA) released a new proposed rule that would require critical infrastructure operators to send detailed reports on network breaches and ransomware attacks within 72 hours of detection.
CISA’s new rule will cover hacks that cause a critical loss of system availability, damage operational technology, disrupt business operations, or breach networks through third parties.
Why It Matters: The 18-month timeline before CISA enforces this new reporting rule will run right up to a potential 2027 conflict between the U.S. and China. Recent developments indicate the federal government is very concerned about domestic disruption due to cyber attacks during a period of crisis or conflict. – R.C.

FO: LA Texas-type bill
« Reply #3040 on: April 10, 2024, 11:16:12 AM »
(4) LOUISIANA MOVING ON TEXAS-STYLE IMMIGRATION LAW: The Louisiana State Senate passed Senate Bill 388 in a 28-11 vote, which will allow law enforcement to arrest, jail, and fine illegal immigrants in Louisiana.

“I think all of us know that we have a crisis at the border, and the federal government is not doing anything to help the states,” State Senator Valerie Hodges (R) said.

Why It Matters: Louisiana is the latest member of the Red State coalition to push a bill that mimics Texas’ SB 4 after Iowa announced a similar bill in March. More Red states are likely to follow. However, the states are waiting for the Biden administration’s challenge to SB 4 to make its way to the Supreme Court, where the Supreme Court will likely side with the Biden administration and strike down state immigration laws. – R.C.

FO: Possible sabotage of ammo plant?
« Reply #3041 on: April 16, 2024, 06:34:56 PM »
(4) SCRANTON ARMY AMMO PLANT CATCHES FIRE: Local authorities are investigating a fire at the Scranton Army Ammunition Plant in Scranton, PA, that broke out yesterday and said the extent of damage is unknown at this point.

The Scranton plant is the only manufacturer in the U.S. of 105mm and 155mm shell casings for the U.S. military.

Why It Matters: There is no information yet on the cause of the fire, and the base case is likely an accident. However, the Scranton plant presents a target of opportunity for foreign adversaries or domestic far left radicals who called for disrupting U.S. defense contractors and defense logistics. The contraction of the U.S. defense industrial base created choke points in the U.S. defense supply chain, allowing single points of failure to have a potentially outsized impact on U.S. national security. – R.C.
