Benson: What Will They Do When the Goodies Are Gone?

Legal Immigrants, Illegal Immigrant, Refuge there is a difference. (AlamogordoTownNews.com) Photo by Metin Ozer on Unsplash

We’ve had problems with illegal immigration on our Southern border for decades. This problem is not new, but it is surely different and worse now than it ever was before. For a lot of years we had immigrants, mostly from Mexico and Central America, coming across the border to find work, mostly because their own countries couldn’t, or wouldn’t, give them enough work to support their families.

When they got here and somehow managed to find work they worked hard. When their children were born here they were citizens and many of them contributed to the country. They worked, joined the military, their children got an education that enabled them to contribute to society. This is not a picture of many of the current illegal immigrants this country is being inundated with thanks to China Joe Biden. Continue reading

The Great Election Fraud: Manufactured Choices Make a Mockery of Our Republic

“Dictators are not in the business of allowing elections that could remove them from their thrones.” ~ Gene Sharp, political science professor

The U.S. Supreme Court was right to keep President Trump’s name on the ballot.

The high court’s decree that the power to remove a federal candidate from the ballot under the Constitution’s “insurrectionist ban” rests with Congress, not the states, underscores the fact that in a representative democracy, the citizenry – not the courts, not the corporations, and not the contrived electoral colleges – should be the ones to elect their representatives.

Unfortunately, what is being staged is not an election. It is a mockery of an election. Continue reading

Blow it Out Cher (G)-Ass! Chapter II

OH – do you find the title of today’s post offensive? Then it is past time to WAKE UP! It’s not the title that one should be offended by – it should be the subject matter.

“Pal” Joey and Company are at the bottom of this crap for one reason or another and many of his cohorts are more than likely on the receiving end of some heavy ‘moolah‘!

Hey folks – it’s the ‘Green New Deal’. Let’s save the Planet by forcing EV autos down people’s throats. Let’s outlaw the sales of BBQ’s and gas stoves.

But tonight, I drove by numerous gas stations that had tried to “Pump me UP!” for a .40-cent hike in less than 24 hours. Who in the hell iz zooming who? I will not waste my time trying to share other reasons for all of this crap. It is time that America WAKE UP and smell the coffee being heated up on your GAS stoves.

What Does Biden’s Bid to Phase Out Gas Cars by 2032 Mean For YOU?

Take-up of electric cars has stalled in many parts of America – with just 3 percent of new sales an EV in some states

Drastic new rules that limit the sale of gas-powered vehicles by 2032 were unveiled by the Biden administration …

The news come as take-up of electric cars has stalled in many parts of America – with just 3 percent of new sales an EV in some states.

EV owners report far more problems with their cars and trucks than owners of gas-powered vehicles, according to a new survey.

Vehicles in the burgeoning electric vehicle segment, from model year 2021 through 2023, encountered 79 percent more problems than those with combustion engines…

Rage Drivers About Gas Tax Hike and New $250 EV Fee to Be Rolled Out in Major US State

New Jersey Governor Phil Murphy, along with key state lawmakers, is spearheading a plan to gradually increase the gasoline tax by nearly 1.9 cents per gallon each year.

A new bill would implement the gas tax hike each year for the next five years until drivers spend $.10 a gallon more, according to NJ.com.

The bill would also apply surcharges of $250 to $290 on electric vehicle drivers in the state… (Continue to full article)

Biden Admin Set to Finalize Major Gas Car Crackdown Over Warnings From Automakers, Energy Industry

Joey Doo Fuss

The Biden administration is expected this week to finalize highly anticipated regulations targeting gas-powered vehicle tailpipe emissions, considered the tip of the spear in its efforts to electrify the transportation sector.

The Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) is slated to issue the final rulemaking — which officials have boasted will incentivize greater adoption of electric vehicles (EV), but which opponents have criticized as a de facto mandate — as soon as Wednesday, industry sources told Fox News Digital. The regulations, a key part of President Biden’s climate agenda, would ultimately force automakers to more rapidly expand electric options in their fleets beginning in a matter of years.

“It certainly won’t do anything to improve human health. It won’t do anything to reduce pollution,” American Energy Institute president and CEO Jason Isaac, who has researched the EV market, told Fox News Digital in an interview. “We’ve proven in this country that we’re already a world leader in clean air. All it’s going to continue to do is push the costs of electric vehicles on to purchasers of internal combustion engine vehicles.”

‘This policy is bad for consumers, the economy and national security’… (Continue to full article)

EV euphoria is DEAD!

The buzz around electric vehicles is wearing off. Automakers are scaling back or delaying their electric vehicle plans.

Automakers from Ford Motor and General Motors to Mercedes-Benz, Volkswagen, Jaguar Land Rover and Aston Martin are scaling back or delaying their electric vehicle plans.

Though consumer demand for EVs hasn’t shown up in the way executives had expected, sales of the vehicles are still predicted to increase in the years to come.

A broad return to a more mixed offering of vehicles — with lineups of gas-powered vehicles alongside hybrids and fully electric options — assumes an all-electric future at a much slower pace, and it calls attention to ambitious EV targets set for the years ahead… (Continue to full article)

Leibowitz: ‘We’ doesn’t seem to exist anymore in America

Taste is a funny thing. It changes so incrementally, we barely notice, except looking backward over time. Take my falling out of love with going to the movies. For decades, it used to be a weekly thing, sometimes more. I’d see the big blockbusters, plus whatever indie flicks looked interesting.

Now it’s Academy Awards time. Ten films have been nominated for Best Picture. I’ve seen precisely one. Barbie. Let me save you an hour and 54 minutes: It’s a movie about a doll who wears a lot of pink. She hangs out with a diverse group of fellow dolls. The men are dolts, or oppressive. The patriarchy sucks.

The movie ends – spoiler alert! – with Barbie being dropped off at the gynecologist.

Driving Miss Daisy it ain’t. Continue reading

Bennett: No More Time for This Bull-S#*t!

You had better find the time – cause it’s getting short!

~ Foreword ~

Bennett: Jeffrey Bennett

On the first day, which this article was posted (Oct. 16, 2002), for the first time – The Federal Observer shut down every column unrelated to protecting YOUR 2nd Amendment rights as a statement of anger and frustration. I’m still angry and I’m still frustrated. Although the visitation to this article has been greater than any we have ever posted, I am concerned that few truly understand the ramifications of that, which lays before us.

I’ve had just about enough of the garbage-that-passes-for-news eminating from the anti-gun networks. Do you think that I jest? For over one week – FOX News Channel has reported nothing but the sniper shootings in D.C. (That’s District of Criminals’ for those of you who don’t understand initials.) We’ve gone from the unknown sniper to a person of possible ‘olive complextion‘. Continue reading

DeWeese: Radical Greens Launch a Massive Attack

The radical environmental movement has just launched a massive attack on those of us who are fighting to stop their attacks on our farmers, our property rights, and our free market system.

They have especially focused on our efforts to expose the disastrous results of massive wind and solar farms, which cover thousands of acres of vital farmland with solar panels. The growing danger is that nothing can grow to feed us.

Worse, solar and wind farms are producing little of the vital energy we desperately need to live.

We are fighting the battle to expose and stop this mess. Obviously, we are having an impact. Continue reading

March 19, 2024: The Continued INVASION of America… The Insanity Will NOT End

Frankly – as one who has been fighting this issue for many decades – enough is ENOUGH. I am tired of using the valuable space on Federal Observer to post headline after headline after MORE headlines on this topic. Biden and the rest of the CROOKED Polly-Ticians  – ALL need to get – shall we say – HUNG Out to HANG! – All the while – it is WE the American People who are footing the bill for all of this BULLSHIT!

Florida Braces for Influx of Haitian Refugees as US Coast Guard Sends Boat With 65 Back to Live Under Rule of Crime Boss Barbecue

Florida is braced for an influx of desperate refugees fleeing violence-stricken Haiti as the country inches closer to a civil war.

Gang violence has left the dead piling up in the streets of the capital Port-au-Prince and so far displaced more than 15,000 people. The US State Department has not indicated how many Americans its estimates are among those caught up in the chaos.

Haiti Gets Millions More from U.S. after Armed Gangs Take Over, Billions in Aid Perish

Rife with fraud and corruption, the U.S. government’s multi-billion-dollar Haiti aid program has failed miserably to help citizens of the impoverished island, yet the Biden administration is sending more money as violence and lawlessness grip the country. Armed gangs have overrun most of the capital of Port-au-Prince and political instability has plateaued, but the American taxpayer dollars keep flowing with no oversight though billions in assistance have vanished since an earthquake struck Haiti nearly a decade and a half ago… More of U.S. Taxpayer’s $$$ getting picked from OUR pockets.

Americans Warned to Brace for SECOND Wave of Venezuelan Gangsters Coming Over the Border as Country’s Prisons as at Least 100 Inmates Are RELEASED: ‘These are KILLERS’

A second wave of Venezuela’s worst criminals could soon be rushing over the US border after being released from prison in their home country.

DailyMail.com was first to report on the first wave of Venezuelan gangsters to cross the border and filter into American cities – including henchmen for dictator Nicolas Maduro and members of the notorious Tren de Aragua gang. Now, more gang bangers and thugs who had been locked away are being released, according to a government official.

Staggering 48,610 Migrant Children Have Crossed the Border ALONE Since October

In that same period, 1.2 million people have crossed the US border illegally, statistics from US Customs and Border Protection show.

In the El Paso Sector of the border, 5,800 unaccompanied children have been found near the international boundary, El Paso Border Patrol Chief Anthony Good tweeted Monday.

The shocking figure was posted alongside the photo of a young boy arriving on the border near El Paso, Texas. The system appears to be struggling to cope with the rapid numbers of migrants flowing across the border, which reached an all-time high of 302,000 monthly crossings in December.

The backlog has left millions of migrants who are currently residing in the U.S., unsure of whether they will be permitted to stay or simply be deported.

More Than 8 MILLION Asylum Seekers Will Soon Live in The U.S.

The United States is expected to be grappling with more than 8 million asylum seekers and migrants who will have crossed over the southern border by September. The staggering figure represents a 167 percent surge in five years and underscores the challenges faced by what is both an underfunded and antiquated immigration system.

The vast majority of the 8 million are now free to roam US streets, including 2 million ‘high-priority’ cases of career criminals seeking asylum.

The system appears to be struggling to cope with the rapid numbers of migrants flowing across the border, which reached an all-time high of 302,000 monthly crossings in December.

The backlog has left millions of migrants who are currently residing in the U.S., unsure of whether they will be permitted to stay or simply be deported.

New California Bill Would Make Illegal Immigrants Eligible for First Time Homebuyer Loans

A California Democratic assembly member’s new bill states that an individual’s immigration status can’t disqualify an applicant from the program. Joaquin Arambula, a Democratic assemblyman from California, introduced Assembly Bill 1840 earlier this year, which could create an alternative way for illegal immigrants to achieve homeownership.

The bill is set to expand eligibility criteria for a state loan program to expand these loans to include undocumented migrants that are first-time buyers. Arambula’s update to the bill states, “an applicant under the program shall not be disqualified solely based on the applicant’s immigration status.”

Concerns continue to rise across the country as the migrant crisis continues to grow and overpower different states’ available resources.

Illegal Immigrant Crime Wave

Well, Biden went to the border, the safest part of the border currently, for his election photo-op. However, it isn’t only the border area that feels the brunt of the illegal alien crime wave in this country, not that Biden gives a hoot. It would seem that Biden is currently in the “replacement” mode–replacing American citizens with foreign illegal aliens.

There have been several news reports displaying the outworking of Biden’s replacement agenda (really it’s Obama’s agenda, but Biden is a willing puppet). Illegal immigrants are involved in all manner of crimes, but that’s okay with China Joe as long as the victims are Americans and/or their children.

For instance, one episode happened right here in Louisiana. In Kenner, Louisiana, a 19 year old Illegal immigrant has been arrested following a series of violent crimes. The police have stated that this guy is in this country illegally.

Texas “Won’t Back Down” After Biden Immigration Law Ruling

Texas “will not back down” – Governor Greg Abbott vows – after a U.S. judge sided with a legal challenge by the Biden Administration against a tough new state immigration law that was to take effect next week.

When Governor Abbott signed SB 4 into law in December, it was hailed by The National Border Patrol Council (NBPC) as a weapon to help regain control of the border:

“Border Patrol agents nationwide, not just in Texas, are grateful for Governor Abbott’s leadership and willingness to recognize that it is the rule of law that keeps all Americans safe,” – NBPC President Brandon Judd

The law would make it a state crime to cross the Texas-Mexico border unlawfully.

Texas Judge Orders Joe Biden to Continue Building Border Wall

A federal judge has ordered  Joe Biden to continue building border wall along the United States-Mexico border with funds allocated under former President Donald Trump.

Hickman: Boots on the Ground from Russia

You may not like to read about the Enemy – but you need to understand the difference between it and Joe Buy Deng’s ‘merica!  There is good and bad in every nation – but at the present time – America is on the loosing side of LIFE! ~ Editor

Today in Russia, there is unmistakable tension in the air.

A series of busts of Russia’s rulers, including Vladimir Lenin, second right, and Josef Stalin, third right, are on display in Moscow, Russia

You definitely don’t want to speak out against the war or the current regime — it’s an almost guaranteed way to lose your job or end up in a prison.

That’s why everyone is so careful about what they say, and to whom they say it. Unless you know someone really, really well, you have to avoid any potentially controversial topics.

The TV blasts propaganda on a daily basis, effectively brainwashing millions of people. It’s surprising how many Russians seems to believe the news… or at least pretend to believe it.

The national elections took place this past weekend. Despite the official numbers reporting 77% voter turnout, most people I spoke to didn’t plan on voting since, “the result will be the same anyway.”

This is all eerily reminiscent of the Soviet Union. Continue reading

Garrison: The Democrat’s LIE Bath

The Democrat Party’s propaganda media once again reported news that was a bald faced lie. They claimed that that Trump said there would be a bloodbath if he’s not re-elected. In fact, he said the US auto industry would face a bloodbath if he’s not re-elected. Biden’s Green New Deal would spell the end of the gasoline powered engines of the US auto industry and destroy countless jobs – an economic ‘bloodbath.’ Continue reading

This Is WAR!

It’s that time of year again; the old duffer in the President’s Palace threw down the gauntlet during his State of the (dis)Union Address a few weeks ago…

Did you watch or listen to the antediluvian (ancient) leader of the republic?

Boy, you missed a terrific opportunity to see what the maximum dosage of pharmaceutical-grade stimulants and several Grande Espressos will do to a publicly broadcast Congressional address.

The NASP turned up the juice to max for this show. Biden knew this turn on camera was for all the marbles. He’s been playing this game for fifty years. He knows the rules and what’s at stake. He also knows to follow directions; too bad he doesn’t remember ‘what they are’, for more than thirty seconds.

Biden threw down the gauntlet on the republic by affirming all-out war. Continue reading

Benson: Are We Already Witnessing the Demise of America and the Birth of Amerika?

According to one news report this morning political operative Merrick Garland, who heads our Department of (in)Justice plans to challenge all restrictions on mail-in voting, use of drop boxes, and anything that looks to him to be the restriction of voters who don’t have proper ID’s. It would seem, as I’ve been saying all along, that the plan is to allow non-citizen, illegal alien voters to vote in this year’s election – and you can’t have them showing up in most states without proper ID’s–so you have to eliminate that requirement so that anyone showing up at a polling place can automatically vote whether they have proper identification or not.

Tom Cotton DEMANDS the Pentagon Explain How a Chinese Tutoring Company Infiltrated the Homes and Classrooms of Military Families and Their Children

Arkansas Republican Sen. Tom Cotton is demanding the Pentagon disclose information on its contract with a Chinese-owned tutoring company that has access to U.S. military family data.

Tutor.com, a popular tutoring website, is owned by Primavera Holdings Limited, a firm run by Chinese nationals that also holds stakes in TikTok parent company ByteDance and e-commerce giant Alibaba. The site offers tutoring services to the U.S. military and school districts around the country.

However, a Chinese-owned company should not have access to the sensitive data of U.S. school kids and military families, according to Cotton. Continue reading

Gun Ban for Illegal Immigrants Ruled Unconstitutional

The right to keep and bear arms is a natural right, meaning all free men and women have that right, regardless of where they are on the planet. It’s part of why so many of us find other nations’ gun laws so insulting. It’s a repression of people’s right to have weapons to defend themselves and their nation.

A repression that goes out the window in the face of invasion, it should be noted.

But that brings about the question of illegal immigrants. Do they forfeit their rights when they enter the United States illegally, or do they maintain their rights as they’ve not actually been convicted of a felony or anything else? Continue reading

The State of Our Nation No One’s Talking About: Tyranny Is Rising as Freedom Falls

“Never has our future been more unpredictable, never have we depended so much on political forces that cannot be trusted to follow the rules of common sense and self-interest – forces that look like sheer insanity, if judged by the standards of other centuries.” ~ Hannah Arendt, The Origins of Totalitarianism

‘‘So I looked, and behold, a pale horse. And the name of him who sat on it was Death . . .’’

Day by day, tyranny is rising as freedom falls.

The U.S. military is being used to patrol subway stations and police the U.S.-Mexico border, supposedly in the name of national security.

The financial sector is being used to carry out broad surveillance of Americans’ private financial data, while the entertainment sector is being tapped to inform on video game enthusiasts with a penchant for violent, potentially extremist content, all in an alleged effort to uncover individuals subscribing to anti-government sentiments.

Benson: Communist War on Farmers and Ranchers

One of the main goals of communists listed in The Communist Manifesto is the abolition of private property. That Communist goal is right up there along with another one “Free education for all children in public (government) schools.” The communists hate the concept of private property because it limits their control over people. They realize they have to control the property to control the people.

In this vein, author and researcher Arthur R. Thompson, author of To the Victors go the Myths and Monuments has written: “The communists have always attacked farmers and brought them under their control using a variety of methods. But in the end, they most always destroy the individual farms and those who own them. This is partially because the farmer has been probably the most independent and ‘off the grid’ type of individual. Such a condition is intolerable to the totalitarian state.” Continue reading

DeWeese: Organized Theft in the Name of Government

Most Americans today tend to think of private property simply as a home – the place where the family resides, stores their belongings, and finds shelter and safety from the elements. It’s where you live. It’s yours because you pay the mortgage and the taxes. Most people don’t give property ownership much more thought than that.

There was a time when property ownership was considered to be much more. Property, and the ability to own and control it, was life itself. The great economist John Locke, whose writings and ideas had a major influence on our nation’s founders, believed that “life and liberty are secure only so long as the right of property is secure.” Continue reading

Thomas Jefferson: ‘A True Patriot Will Defend His Country From Its Government’

In this world, the “ideal” exists, at least in theory – the way things ought to be. But more often, there is “reality” – how things actually are. In the ideal world, a country’s government would be on the side of its people, helping them, guiding them towards virtue, honesty, righteousness, philanthropy, and a godly life. Government would instruct its citizens, by its example and leadership, to be self-controlled, responsible, frugal, and moral; to accept and learn from the consequences of their actions and not to blame others for their evil. Basic truthful realities and societal foundations, such as the nuclear family, that men are men, women are women, and children need fathers and mothers, would be encouraged, instead of letting its people destroy themselves and so many others through lies and perversions.

Such a system would mean that government would be needed for only a few limited duties. That’s the way things should be. That’s the ideal.

But that isn’t the “reality” of government. It never has been, and it never will be… Continue reading

Smith: Make the Bastards Pay

The more things change the more they stay the same, and so, here we are some 40 years after Reagan’s amnesty for illegals, which he granted against his better judgement, and facing an illegal alien invasion a hundredfold worse than anything ever seen before in U.S. history. Who could have ever imagined that a nation so powerful as America would have any qualms over securing their border or that Her people would so willingly follow corrupt leaders towards national suicide.

This flood of invaders benefits no one more than the drug cartels, who are raking in a billion dollars a month, through drug profits their mules send back from the states and the payments they receive guiding the peasants and proles across. Continue reading

Snyder: China Is Actively Preparing For War With The United States

At a time when their economy is really struggling, the Chinese are increasing military spending and ramping up preparations for war. But who is China preparing to fight a war with? Needless to say, the answer to that question is obvious. Yes, the border dispute between India and China could erupt into something significant, but that is not likely.

The only other opponent that the Chinese would be fighting a major war with would be the United States. And right now, Chinese shipyards are churning out military vessels at a pace that the U.S. simply cannot match… Continue reading
