November 29, 2023: The Continued INVASION of America… The Insanity Will NOT End!

The Unending Surge of Migrants is Creating a Public Health Crisis

Migrants take part in a caravan towards the border with the United States in Tapachula, Chiapas State, Mexico, on October 30, 2023

As a physician, I tend to view the burgeoning migrant border crisis as much as a public health emergency as it is a national security emergency. The distinction is becoming more and more blurred, since the 2 million or more migrants who have crossed our southern border illegally over the past year — many supposedly seeking asylum — present both problems.

Don’t get me wrong: Many of the millions who have escaped Venezuela or Central America for economic and political reasons certainly have legitimate causes to leave their countries. But we don’t have the public health infrastructure here to absorb them all, not to mention the burdens on our local and state economies. At the same time, deadly fentanyl is pouring across our porous border, posing a huge medical risk of overdoses all across the country.

From a public health point of view, we are hardly prepared to handle such huge numbers of migrants, many of whom have chronic health issues or other acute problems… (Continue to full article)

Voters Want Control of the Border, but Do They Want Trump Immigrant Roundups and Detention Camps?

Even though Americans support immigration, they have been willing to accept tougher prescriptions for enforcement — and their willingness could test how far hard-liners can go in 2024 with anti-immigrant proposals.

Democrats, like Republicans, have been joining the drumbeat that there is a “crisis” at the border as the numbers of people the Border Patrol says it encounters hit record levels.

Amid all this, former President Donald Trump promises to expand on the hard-line immigration policies of his first term, setting off alarm bells among immigration advocates and even some Republican conservatives.

Meanwhile, leaders in blue cities that have long welcomed immigrants complain of stretched resources with the influx of newcomers shuttled from Texas and other states. Dividing lines are emerging as immigrants who have worked for years without legal status see newly arrived asylum-seekers from countries like Venezuela get work permits.

Any “show me your papers” policies or Operation Wetback-like roundups could easily ensnare Latino Americans… (Continue to full article)

States Are Spending Millions to Send Migrants Somewhere Else

States spent tens of millions of taxpayer dollars to ship migrants elsewhere this year.

What started as a GOP political stunt ahead of the midterms has led states and cities of both parties to spend significant resources to help migrants and asylum seekers reach other parts of the country.

The U.S. has a resettlement process for refugees that ensures they are placed in communities prepared to support them, but there is no such national coordination for migrants and asylum seekers.

Responding to historic levels of migration throughout the Americas has come with high costs across the board in the U.S.

I say,SEND THEM HOME“… (Continue to full article)

Border Patrol Takes Drastic Action as Thousands of Immigrants Illegally Enter Tucson Daily

Arizona Border Patrol

Border Patrol leadership in the Tucson region of Arizona is calling for “all hands on deck” to respond to an “unprecedented surge” of illegal immigrants , the Washington Examiner has learned.

Federal law enforcement agents in southeastern Arizona sounded the alarm in conversations with the Washington Examiner on Monday, disclosing that agents have been pulled from manning the highway checkpoints, canceled all training classes, and even diverted from desk jobs, such as posting updates on the organization’s local social media, a sign of how strained the agency has become responding to thousands crossing in just one part of the southern border each day.

“As you are aware, Tucson Sector is experiencing an unprecedented surge of illegal entries in our [area of responsibility],” Tucson leadership wrote in an email to agents this afternoon, according to a copy obtained by the Washington Examiner on Monday. “[T]his morning we had more than 5,000 people in custody – far more than our holding capacity.”… (Continue to full article)

What If the Constitution No Longer Applied? Freedom’s Greatest Hour of Danger Is Now

“What if the rights and principles guaranteed in the Constitution have been so distorted in the past 200 years as to be unrecognizable by the Founders? What if the government was the reason we don’t have a Constitution anymore? What if freedom’s greatest hour of danger is now?” ~ Andrew P. Napolitano

We are approaching critical mass, the point at which all hell breaks loose.

The government is pushing us ever closer to a constitutional crisis.

What makes the outlook so much bleaker is the utter ignorance of the American people – and those who represent them – about their freedoms, history, and how the government is supposed to operate. Continue reading

China’s Growing Espionage and Propaganda Threat in the U.S.

Congress warns America has little grasp at how deep the Communist Party’s influence has infiltrated communities across the nation

The Chinese Communist Party’s (CCP) presence on American soil has already revealed itself in the network of secret police stations in major cities and the ‘Little Red Classrooms’ in kindergartens.

The US has little grasp of how deep China’s network of espionage and influence operations runs through the nation, a dire warning from Congress has revealed.

Now, members of the bipartisan House China Select Committee have released a memo detailing how the U.S. has failed to combat Beijing’s infiltration – and it could get worse. Continue reading

November 28, 2023: Billy Bob, China-Joe Buy Deng, Billy Gates and even a bit of Billy Gold

Chinese Migrants Crosses US Through South Border
A startling number of Chinese migrants are entering the US through the southern border. In the past year, over 24,000 Chinese citizens have been caught crossing into the US from Mexico, despite the distance and difficulty. That exceeds the previous 10 years, according to government data.

They fly through Turkey to Ecuador, which doesn’t require a visa. Like hundreds of thousands of other Central and South American and other migrants, they pay smugglers to guide them through the hazardous jungle between Colombia and Panama to the US. Many surrender to border agents and request asylum. Most succeed, inspiring more tries. Chinese asylum seekers outperform others in immigration court. China rarely accepts them back, so they stay anyhow. A little-discussed issue in the polarizing immigration debate is that US officials cannot force countries to take back their residents. Usually not a problem. However, 12 countries are uncooperative, with China being the worst.

An administration official who spoke on condition of anonymity to discuss internal data said 100,000 of the 1.3 million Americans with final deportation orders are Chinese… (Continue to full article)

Bill Gates Calls Planting Trees to Improve Climate Change “Nonsense”
Despite his vast contributions to tackling climate change in his lifetime, billionaire philanthropist, Bill Gates has come under public scrutiny recently, for his views on planting trees.

In a recent interview with David Gelles, at the New York Times Climate Forward Summit, Gates referred to tree planting as a “less proven” tactic — even going on to call it “complete nonsense”.

When Gelles posed the statement, “Some people would even say that if you just plant enough trees, it could take care of the climate issue altogether”, Gates responded:

That’s complete nonsense [chuckling to himself]… I mean, are we the science people or are we the idiots?

Since then, the internet has erupted with backlash, citing Bill’s intent to be somehow tied to 2,100 acres of potato farmland he purchased in North Dakota… (Continue to full article)

Biden Allocates Billions Abroad as American Families Struggle and Domestic Aid Shortfalls
A recent analysis of U.S. foreign aid and federal spending trends has sparked debate over the Biden administration’s prioritization of foreign assistance over domestic economic challenges from all parties. The data reveals a stark contrast between substantial foreign aid and the growing economic struggles faced by many Americans.

Historically, the U.S. has been a leading provider of foreign aid. Notably, aid to Israel, adjusted for inflation from 1951 to 2022, totaled $317.9 billion, making Israel the largest recipient of American foreign aid since World War II. Meanwhile, in fiscal year 2023, the U.S. government expenditure reached $6.13 trillion, resulting in a significant budget deficit.

Amidst these figures, the Biden administration’s newly proposed additional security assistance package, allocating over $60 billion to Ukraine, has come under scrutiny. This proposal emerges at a time when Americans are grappling with rising living costs, including escalating gas prices and food costs, amid stagnant wages.

The financial strain is compounded by the estimated $150.7 billion annual cost of illegal immigration, as reported by FAIR, a burden that indirectly falls on U.S. taxpayers… (Continue to full article)

Bill Gates’s Relationship with Convicted Pedophile Jeffrey Epstein Revolved Around a Global Health Investment Fund

Over time, Gates and JPMorgan established an investment fund that sought to profit from the development of vaccines and other health technologies. Epstein wanted a piece of the action, and Staley brought Epstein into the Gates partnership.

The Gates-JPMorgan partnership was called the Global Health Investment Fund (GHIF) and was created circa 2011. At the time, Staley managed the Epstein relationship for the bank, and Epstein was a valuable client who brought JPMorgan a lot of business. Epstein was an adviser to billionaires like Victoria’s Secret mogul Leslie Wexner and Wall Street legend Leon Black and the “family offices” which manage their fortunes. Wexner and Black deny any involvement in Epstein’s criminal activities.

The GHIF partnership brought in a host of other powerful investors, including The Pfizer Foundation, Merck, GlaxoSmithKline, as well as entities funded by the governments of Sweden, Canada, and Germany. There would also be private support from “qualified individuals and family offices.”

The GHIF’s purpose was to give “individual and institutional investors the opportunity to finance late-stage global health technologies that have the potential to save millions of lives in low-income countries.” The Bill & Melinda Gates Foundation and the Swedish International Development Cooperation Agency committed to help offset any potential GHIF losses… (Continue to full article)

Luther Vandross – Every Year, Every Christmas

Bill Gates says a 3-day work week where ‘machines can make all the food and stuff’ isn’t a bad idea
Technology may not replace humans, but it could make a 3-day work week possible — at least, that’s what Bill Gates thinks.

The billionaire joined Trevor Noah on his “What Now?” podcast in an episode that premiered on Tuesday. When Noah asked about the threat of artificial intelligence to jobs, Gates said there could one day be a time when humans “don’t have to work so hard.”

“If you eventually get a society where you only have to work three days a week, that’s probably OK,” Gates said.

There could exist a world where “machines can make all the food and the stuff,” and people don’t have to work a five day-plus work week to earn a living wage… (Continue to full article)

Gold prices are headed for all-time highs and could eventually hit $2,500
This Thanksgiving may call for a feast on gold as prices push towards all-time highs, according to Fundstrat’s Mark Newton.

In the past couple of weeks, gold futures have surged 3% and briefly breached a key psychological threshold of $2,000 per ounce on Tuesday.

In fact, Tuesday’s action marked the highest daily close of November, and any movement above $2,006.37 per ounce this week would make it the highest weekly close since the spring, the technical analyst said in a note Wednesday.

“This is quite positive technically, and I expect that gold has begun its push back to new all-time highs,” Newton wrote, adding that a move above $2,009.41 should lead to the $2,060-$2,080 range.

In follow-up comments to Business Insider via email, he said a breach of resistance at $2,080 would signal a “definite technical breakout,” which he expects to happen and quickly drive gold even higher… (Continue to full article)

At 94, Home Depot Co-Founder Explains Why He’s ‘Never Been More Frightened for This Country

Bernie Marcus, the co-founder of Home Depot, explained earlier this month why he’s “never been more frightened for this country” in his life. At 94 years old, that’s saying a lot.

“If you look at what’s going on around you, you know that we’re falling apart. Our economy is falling apart,” he told an audience in Palm Beach, Florida during an event for Job Creators Network, which he founded 10 years ago. Continue reading

November 22, 1963: The Death of JFK ~ One Final Chapter…

Director Rob Reiner claims he’s unearthed PROOF that JFK was killed by FOUR shooters not one – and says the reason the first shot missed president’s motorcade is KEY to the theory

Actor and film director Rob Reiner has claimed there were four shooters involved in the murder of President John F. Kennedy and insists the reason the first bullet missed is key to his theory.

Reiner claims there were more people involved in the fatal shooting of Kennedy who he names in his 10-episode podcast titled ‘Who Killed JFK?‘ recorded with journalist Soledad O’Brien.

Reiner developed a fascination with the murder of Kennedy ever since he heard the news in high school, aged 16. Continue reading

JFK’s Parkland Doctors Come Forward: Oswald Didn’t Act Alone

In an exclusive clip from Paramount+ doc JFK: What the Doctors Saw, the doctors who treated JFK at Parkland Hospital say one of the bullets was an entrance wound

Since this year marks the 60th anniversary of John F. Kennedy’s assassination, a number of docu-specials are rolling out to revisit (and, in some cases, reexamine) that tragic day in Dallas, Texas. None of them seem more compelling than JFK: What the Doctors Saw, a documentary featuring previously unreleased footage — and the testimony of seven doctors who were there in the emergency room of Parkland Hospital trying to save the then-president’s life after he was shot as his motorcade passed through Dealey Plaza on Nov. 22, 1963.

Railroad Supervisor Sam Holland – Witness to the assassination of President John F. Kennedy

Samuel “Skinny” M. Holland worked for the Union Terminal Railroad as a Signal supervisor for railroad track and track signals. Mr. Holland watched the motorcade of President John F. Kennedy from the overpass in Dealey Plaza in Dallas, Texas. He said when Kennedy was shot he saw a puff of gunsmoke under the branches of a tree on the grassy knoll. ”There was definitively a shot fired from behind that picket fence, and I can’t see how they could doubt that a 4th shot was fired I saw the smoke and heard the report from behind that fence..I was on the spot“….

Secret Service Agent Who Was With JFK on Day of His Assassination Breaks Silence With Claim That Blows Up the ‘Magic Bullet’ Theory and Suggests There WAS More Than One Shooter

A former Secret Service agent who was present at President John F. Kennedy’s assassination has come forward with a new claim that would debunk the ‘magic bullet’ theory and raises questions about whether there was a second shooter.

Paul Landis, 88, broke his silence on Saturday, nearly 60 years after Kennedy was shot dead in a motorcade passing through Dallas, to share his bombshell recollection with the New York Times.

Landis, who in 1963 was a young Secret Service agent assigned to protect First Lady Jaqueline Kennedy, said that in the chaos following the shooting, he picked up a nearly pristine bullet sitting on the top of the back seat of the open limousine. Continue reading

Holmquist: The Amish Plan for Better Schools

Lessons from the Amish on how to bring education back to the heart of the family.

Imagine it’s a beautiful fall day. You’re whizzing down country roads, enjoying the vibrant colors of red and yellow maples, when suddenly, a bright-orange triangle catches your eye. Slamming on the brakes, you realize that an Amish buggy is just ahead, and you curiously crane your neck, hoping for a glimpse of the plainly clad individuals inside.

Alas, your vehicle’s slowed pace leaves you little more than a glimpse of them, and you speed on, glad you’re heading back to modernity and its conveniences rather than stuck behind a horse. Continue reading

Shekels With Shackles”: The United Nations Plan To Control Your Children’s Education

Most of you didn’t notice that the United Nations has plans for how your children are educated, did you? Well, you are not supposed to realize this and if your kids are still in public school you will probably never discover this. Even if your kids are in a private school or being homeschooled, the United Nations, the world’s foremost busybody organization, has a consuming interest in how you educate your children. The fact that it’s none of their darn business is beside the point. They plan on making it their business. Continue reading

Non-Compos Mentis

The literal definition of this Latin phrase is Not sane or not in one’s right mind:

Classically, not having control of one’s mind.

It was first used in thirteenth-century English law to describe people afflicted by madness, the loss of memory, or the ability to reason.

My interpretation…

No Compass, Means Us…

I constantly wonder about the absurd and foundering America I see today. All reason and intelligence appear to be discarded, or we’ve intentionally abandoned using good sense and logic. We seem emotionally driven, guided more by feelings than intellect.

Did we utterly legislate or litigate reason into obscurity using “the end justifies the means” as our rationale? Continue reading

We the Exploited: The U.S. Government Buys and Sells Its Citizens for Profit and Power

Americans have become easy prey for hackers, scammers, snitches, spies, and con artists.

But don’t be fooled into thinking the government is protecting you.

To the contrary, the U.S. government is selling us (or rather, our data) to the highest bidders.

By the way, those highest bidders also include America’s political class and the politicians aspiring to get elected or re-elected. As the Los Angeles Times reports, “If you have been to a political rally, a town hall, or just fit a demographic a campaign is after, chances are good your movements are being tracked with unnerving accuracy by data vendors on the payroll of campaigns.”

Your phones, televisions and digital devices are selling you out to politicians who want your vote. Continue reading

THE BIRDS

Apologies to Alfred Hitchcock

To his country’s detriment as well as his own, Volodymyr Zelensky is digging in his heels. He refuses to admit his war is hopeless. His spring counteroffensive was a failure. Boys and old men are being tossed into the meat grinder. Ukraine cannot sustain its huge casualty rate and expect to survive. Russia is clearly going to win the war, but Zelensky refuses to start peace negotiations. Zelensky will be removed one way or another – either by Russia or its own rebelling populace.

Kunstler: Party, Party!

Of course, you already sense that the 2024 election will be a freaky event, if it happens at all. If it’s not America’s last election altogether, it may be the last one that follows the traditional format that has signified stability in our country’s high tide as a great power: that is, a contest between Republicans and Democrats. Both parties are likely to crash and burn in the year ahead, along with a whole lot of other things on the tottering scaffold of normal life. Continue reading

Missing Veteran Killed in Vietnam to Be Laid to Rest in Utah After 50 Years

U.S. Marine Corps Capt. Ralph Jim Chipman disappeared into darkness in late 1972

Capt. Ralph Jim Chipman was laid to rest on Nov. 11 in American Fork, Utah. Defense POW/MIA Accounting Agency

U.S. Marine Corps Capt. Ralph Jim Chipman was the pilot of an A-6A Intruder when he and his crew went missing into darkness nearly 51 years ago flying a mission during the Vietnam War .

Considered missing in action and then later deemed killed in war, Chipman’s remains were found and identified three months ago. Now, he’s coming home.

Chipman’s remains will return to his native Utah on Saturday for a final resting place — flanked by family members, first responders and others for a Veterans Day memorial.

“After 50 years the day our family has been waiting for has finally come!” Scot Chipman, his son, said, according to KSLN. “Our family wants to thank all of those that have made this day possible.” Continue reading

The Truth About Scholastic

A Christian activist and author says a popular company that’s been supplying kids with reading material for decades is also responsible for the pornographic books in their school libraries.

Kirk Cameron has lately been traveling to public libraries across the country to counter drag queen story hours by reading kids his Christian books. In that journey, he says, he has realized there is more work to be done.

According to the former TV star, Scholastic, the company that has been providing books to kids since the ’40s and holding book fairs since the early ’80s, is responsible for many of the controversial and pornographic books that can now be found in many U.S. school libraries.

It has adopted a recurring pattern of sexualized content in recent years and last month pledged to “redouble” its efforts to “combat the laws restricting children’s access” to pornographic books.

“You really can’t get away from them if your kids are going to school,” he laments. “This stuff is pervasive. They’re not just a thousand-pound gorilla in the space of children’s books; they are children’s books.” Continue reading

Smith: The Continued Invasion of America Subverts Our Society

Illegal Aliens Demand “the Right” to Invade America

America’s borders are being breached and the country invaded by hundreds of thousands of illegal aliens each month, which constitutes an attack on our country, especially when one sees all the cross-border violence engaged in by the drug cartels that has left much of the U.S. Southern Border beyond the control of the U.S. government. And it is the direct result of an intentional policy employed by the Biden regime and DHS Secretary Alejandro Mayorkas, traitor to America, that has utilized law enforcement personnel and National Guardsmen to facilitate the processing and release of these illegal aliens into the country rather than stop them from crossing over, and as such, Joe Biden and all those who do his bidding in this matter have violated U.S. immigration law and committed a criminal act on such a grand scale that it is tantamount to treason.
