SCOTUS Rules Against Illegal Aliens Challenging Deportation Orders In Perpetuity

Basically, if they fail to show for their court dates they can’t challenge it

Supreme Court Rules Against Migrants in Dispute Over Deportation Hearing Notices

illegal alien DemocratThe Supreme Court sided with the federal government on Friday in a dispute over what information immigration officials must provide migrants about their deportation hearings.

In a 5-to-4 decision, the majority upheld the current requirements, which can mean that basic information about a deportation hearing is missing.

Justice Samuel A. Alito Jr. wrote the majority opinion, joined by four of the court’s other conservatives.

He cautioned that the decision “does not mean that the government is free of its obligation” to provide immigrants with notice of deportation hearings. Rather, he wrote, it blocked immigrants from seeking to challenge removal orders “in perpetuity based on arguments they could have raised in a hearing that they chose to skip.”

This has made illegal alien supporters, including those on the high court, very upset. Did the Liberal justices offer to take illegals into their own homes?

The dispute before the court stemmed from a group of cases brought by immigrants who challenged their deportations, claiming they never received proper notice of their court hearings. Although the circumstances of each case varied, in each instance the government failed to provide a single notice to appear with information about the time and place of the deportation hearing.

In each case, the migrant failed to show up for the hearing and was ordered deported. Each person challenged the deportation.

There was all sorts of whining from illegal aliens about non-notification, claiming there was no time and date. At least for those who showed up. And then you have all those who did not receive the order, because, let’s be honest, the government can’t find them. They disappear.

ICE struggles to track down migrants ‘paroled’ by DHS chief Mayorkas

More than 99% of illegal immigrants caught and released a year ago as part of a special border “parole” program are still at large, according to government data that signals how difficult it will be to unwind the millions of migrants who have gained a foothold under President Biden.

These migrants present a critical test case for the Biden administration. A federal judge has demanded unprecedented transparency in the Department of Homeland Security’s handling of 2,572.

ICE said it can confirm the deportation, departure or death of just 14 people, meaning 99.5% of all of the migrants caught and released under this parole program are thought to still be in the U.S. Only one of the migrants was being held at the time ICE reported to the court in late May.

That’s just a small portion of illegals, as we go back to the first article

Record numbers of migrants have been apprehended at the country’s southern border for the last three years. In the fiscal year that ended in September, 2.4 million were caught.

The government cannot keep track of 2,572 (possibly because the Biden regime has jammed up the works). How do they keep track of the 2.4 million caught in the last fiscal year alone and serve them with court dates?

Biden Prepping New Immigration Policy That Would Provide Amnesty to More Than a Million Migrants: Report

President Biden is preparing to announce a new plan aimed at protecting illegal immigrants from deportation and easing the process for obtaining work permits, so long as they have been in America for at least a decade and are married to an American citizen, according to a new report.

Oh. Good. More illegals.

Climate Cult To Disrupt Austrian Grand Prix

By William Teach June 17, 2024 – 7:00 am

I wonder how they will be traveling there? It’s on June 30th

Climate change activists threaten to disrupt Austrian Grand Prix

Hundreds of thousands of people will travel to Spielberg again at the end of this month, where the annual Austrian Grand Prix is scheduled at the Red Bull Ring. Perhaps their journey towards the circuit will not go entirely smoothly, with fears that climate change activists will be on the access roads and will cause delays.

Austrian police are at least taking that into account, the Kleine Zeitung reports. Indeed, there are indications that climate activists are using the race to protest – as they did a year ago, doing so by glueing themselves to the road surface. Removing them from that will take some time, but Austrian police expect adequate action to be taken in the event of protests.

Arresting known activists in advance is not something the authorities do. The police confirmed to the newspaper that protesting is a fundamental right. But after some point, the protest must be over and, moreover, the organisation of the Grand Prix (where 300,000 fans are expected over three days) must not go haywire.

Fearing that the climate stickers will also come onto the track during the race and then stick to the asphalt, the police are not. It is assumed that security measures at the Red Bull Ring are so strict that no one will manage to get over the fence on the track.

Well, I hope the police and security are on the ball, and have proper liquids on hand to deal with the glue. Too bad cutting their hands off is not allowed. Certainly do not want to run them over, those cars are expensive, and all that blood and gore affects windflow and slows the cars down.

Hamas Is Totally Up For Giving Up Hostages Or Something

By William Teach June 17, 2024 – 6:45 am

But, they have a few conditions

Hamas: We’re ready for hostage deal with ceasefire, IDF must withdraw

Hamas is ready for a hostage deal that includes a Gaza ceasefire and a withdrawal of the IDF, the group’s Qatar-based leader Ismail Haniyeh said in a televised speech on the occasion of the Islamic Eid al-Adha on Sunday.

“Hamas and the (Palestinian) groups are ready for a comprehensive deal which entails a ceasefire, withdrawal from the Strip, the reconstruction of what was destroyed, and a comprehensive swap deal,” Haniyeh said.

His comments referred to renewed efforts to forge a deal for the remaining 120 hostages seized on October 7, based on a three-phased deal unveiled by US President Joe Biden May 31.

Egypt and Qatar, which along with the United States have been mediating between Hamas and Israel – said on June 11 that they received a response from the Palestinian groups to the US plan, without giving further details.

Here’s a question: why in the ever loving fuck is Biden negotiating with Hamas? They are a US State Department designated terrorist organization, and have been since 1997. Is there no one else in Gaza the Biden regime can negotiate with, not that most of the Hamas big-shots are actually in Gaza. Or, are all the Palestinians Hamas supporters? Hamas should not be left in charge of Gaza.

Anyhow, any deal should not include a swap. Hamas needs to let all their hostages go. Israel would be more than happy to leave and stay left as long as the terrorists and their supporters do not attack Israel. Hamas breaks the ceasefires every time. The last one was the straw that broke the camel’s back. If Hamas wants reconstruction, let them get the money from their backers in Iran.

Israel has accepted the deal, which deals with the issue of a permanent ceasefire only once the deal is underway. It has insisted that any deal must allow for its military campaign to continue until such time as Hamas is ousted from Gaza.

It’s time for the end of Hamas. Most likely another terrorist group will grow in Gaza, but, it could take a while. And Biden should be backing this.

(Jerusalem Post) Palestinian pollster Khalil Shikaki released a survey of Palestinian attitudes on Wednesday – the third since October 7 – showing that fully 61% of Palestinians in the West Bank and Gaza would prefer to see Hamas in control of the Gaza Strip and that support for the terrorist organization far outstrips that of Fatah.

Nevertheless, the headline of a New York Times front page article on Sunday read, “Gazans voice their distress under Hamas.” The online headline to the story was, “As war drags on, Gazans more willing to speak out against Hamas.”

Can’t Biden find people in that 39% who do not support Hamas? Fatah is not all that much better, but, they are no longer designated a terrorist group by the U.S. or Israel.

We’re Saved: Biden Admin Using Clean Energy Funds For Pro-Illegal Alien Groups

By William Teach June 16, 2024 – 7:00 am

So, um, why in the heck is the EPA funding private immigration groups?

From the link

The Biden administration quietly funneled $50 million in taxpayer funds earmarked for clean energy to two groups that oppose immigration enforcement.

The U.S. Environmental Protection Agency tapped the New York Immigration Coalition and New Jersey Alliance for Immigrant Justice as partners to distribute $50 million of $3 billion set aside in the Inflation Reduction Act (IRA) for environmental and climate block grants, the Wall Street Journal reported.

Both groups’ missions have nothing to do with protecting the environment.

Instead, they adamantly support abolishing the US Immigration and Custom Enforcement Agency, believe guarding borders is “racist and classist,” and want to block state and local government employees from cooperating with federal immigration officials, said Sen. Shelley Moore Capito (R-W. Va.), whose office is probing IRA spending. (snip)

“And it’s very dishonest when you talk to the American public about the goals of a green climate fund are being determined by immigration justice and immigration coalition groups.”

Remember, all the Credentialed Media and admin mouthpieces and such tell us that the IRA was the greeenest bill ever! Yet, where is all that money going? It might just be $50 million, but, it’s $50 million. How many Americans could that have helped? What if that money had been put towards, say, the water problem in Flint, Michigan instead? There are more than enough real environmental issues that could be dealt with had that money gone to them.

However, the agency previously said the immigration groups and Fordham University – which was tapped as a grant maker — will take “an intersectional approach to place frontline communities in positions of power” to advance climate justice “in disadvantaged and hard-to-reach communities and communities disproportionately impacted by climate change, pollution, and other environmental stressors.”

Some days I wish Richard Nixon had never signed the Environmental Protection Act. This is just batshit crazy. Maybe they could have fixed the chloroform and haloacetic acid issues in Newark, NJ. Isn’t that their job? Not wordsalad on illegal aliens.

Of course, what’s going to happen? Nothing. The GOP can hold as many hearings as they want, but, nothing changes. Which is the problem with the federal government. There is no accountability to We The People.

Liberals Concerned SCOTUS May Take Up ‘Climate Change’ Case

By William Teach June 15, 2024 – 4:26 pm

Which, obviously, would lead to Democrats whining about the right leaning court which dares to follow the law and the Constitution, rather than their own feelings

Supreme Court signals interest in hearing a major climate change case that could be a ‘nightmare’ for liberals

climate cowThe Supreme Court seemed to signal interest this week in taking up a challenge launched by Hawaii against big oil companies to hold them liable for climate change, and some Democrats are suggesting the high court is “captured” for the fossil fuel industry.

The Supreme Court on Monday asked the Justice Department to weigh in on a petition to hear a lawsuit brought by the City of Honolulu against major fuel companies including Sunoco, Exxon and Chevron, claiming the companies’ products cause greenhouse gas emissions and global warming without warning consumers about the risks.

The city employed a series of state laws like public nuisance and trespass measures and said the companies should pay billions to the state to abate the effects of climate change like weather events, sea level rise, heat waves, flooding and global warming generally.

Will any of the justices ask if the state of Hawaii has given up their own use of fossil fuels? It wouldn’t survive as with all the planes, boats, cars, and helicopters bringing in and ferrying around all the tourists, not too mention bringing all the goods and food. Did the state government stop using them?

The high court gave DOJ no deadline for the solicitor general’s input, but its request indicates a high likelihood the court wants to hear the case. (snip)

But some Democrats and liberal advocates have begun preemptively criticizing the court.

Last week, Senator Sheldon Whitehouse, D-R.I., who sits on the Senate Judiciary Committee, posted on X saying, “[t]his captured Court’s delays of and interference in fossil fuel emissions regulations have already saved the polluters hundreds of billions — way more than they spent to capture it. But there is no end to fossil fuel polluters’ greed and entitlement.”

Lisa Graves, the executive director at the left-wing watchdog group True North Research, told the Rolling Stone that fossil fuel companies’ “efforts to evade legal accountability are being aided by… the very same groups that helped the majority of justices on the U.S. Supreme Court get their seats on the bench.”

In fairness, these same people and groups constantly whine about SCOTUS and fossil fuels companies, they are just trying to link them now. But, weirdly, none of them mention having given up their own use of fossil fuels. How many times a year does Sheldon fly to and from Rhode Island to D.C.? He could easily take the train.
But Fox News Digital has previously reported that the Hawaii litigation has been pushed by liberal dark money groups and legal partners.

Hawaii Supreme Court Chief Justice Mark Recktenwald, in his opinion rejecting the energy companies’ arguments, wrote, “Defendants knew of the dangers of using their fossil fuel products, ‘knowingly concealed and misrepresented the climate impacts of their fossil fuel products,’ and engaged in ‘sophisticated disinformation campaigns to cast doubt on the science, causes, and effects of global warming,’ causing increased fossil fuel consumption and greenhouse gas emissions, which then caused property and infrastructure damage in Honolulu.”

I still fail to understand why the sued companies do not simply stop operating in Hawaii, or at least stop selling to the government.

Biden Tells Influencers At White House Gather That He’s “Pressuring Israel”

By William Teach June 15, 2024 – 10:30 am

First of all, I want to throw something every time I hear the term “influencer”, which denotes a bunch of youts with no experience thinking they know everything. But, I settle for rolling my eyes. People like James Carville and Glenn Beck don’t call themselves influencers, eh? Anyhow, before a long diatribe, it’s funny that Biden doesn’t tell the youts that he’s pressuring Hamas

‘I’m pressuring the Israelis’: Biden says he warned Israel to follow US instructions

Joe Biden Ice Cream AfghanistanUnited States President Joe Biden, said at an event for influencers at the White House last week that he sent $26 billion in aid to Israel to bolster security for the Jewish state. The president added that he was also putting pressure on Israel.

“First of all, Israel’s security in the region is essential,” Biden said. “I am pressuring the Israelis to withdraw and open more humanitarian transits, and I think we are getting closer.”

“I have made very clear to the Israelis what they have to do in the near term and if they don’t, what’s going to happen,” Biden told one of the participants at the event.

The video cut off after the videographer questioned whether Biden intended to end aid to Israel if the Israelis did not do as the president asked.

The United States repeatedly made clear that it did not support IDF operations in Rafah, where many Palestinian civilians fled to escape the war.

Israel has continued with the Rafah operations, noting that Hamas has built significant terror infrastructure embedded within civilian communities. Additionally, Israel has highlighted concerns that some of the over 250 hostages may have been held there.

Seriously, has anyone noted Biden castigating Hamas, which is a US State Department designated terrorist group? He barely mentions them. Most of his yammering is about Israel not going after the group that attacked the nation on October 7th, injuring, raping, torturing, kidnapping, and killing Jews. And you can bet that most of these …..grrrrrr…influencers are certainly far left Democrats who hate Israel and Jews and now support Hamas.

Meanwhile

Biden’s $320 Million Gaza Pier Removed From Area Again After Costly Repairs

President Joe Biden’s pier off the shore of Gaza experienced another blow this week and has to once again been relocated due to weather conditions.

The pier, which estimates have said costs up to $320 million, was forced offline late last month after it fell apart amid stormy sea conditions and sections of it washed up on the shoreline.

“Today, due to expected high seas, the temporary pier will be removed from its anchored position in Gaza and towed back to Ashdod, Israel,” said U.S. Central Command (CENTCOM) in a statement. “The safety of our service members is a top priority and temporarily relocating the pier will prevent structural damage caused by the heightened sea state.”

$22 million in repairs, then it has to be removed again because it cannot take some waves. Who would have thought that the Mediterranean would have waves. Seas don’t do that. It’s always super calm, right?

Remember that? $700. What’s the government doing for Maui? Some have pointed out that it would have meant just an extra $600 for each resident. But, if that $320 million had been used for direct assistance it would have helped Americans.

Ford Ends Expensive EV Requirements For Deals

By William Teach June 15, 2024 – 7:00 am

I wonder why?

Ford ends controversial EV program, shocking dealers

Electric vehicleDetroit Big Three automaker Ford is changing the way the brand sells its battery-electric vehicles, with its latest move placing the automaker’s EVs within easy reach of nearly 90% of Americans.

Though the new move can translate to more sales and increased foot traffic for dealers, Ford retailers have mixed reactions, as it involved the axing of a controversial and expensive program that the Blue Oval hung over their heads.

In an announcement on June 13, Ford announced that it will be ending its Model e certification program, a program that enables dealers to sell the automaker’s electric vehicles at their stores.

In a statement to Automotive News, Marin Gjaja, COO of Ford Model e, Ford’s electric vehicle division, said that the evolving EV market required them to change the way it sells its cars.

“At this point, we’re basically saying we want to lower the bar to let people get in,” Gjaja told AutoNews. “We’ll probably have to continue to evolve from here, but we wanted to get everyone in because what we’re seeing is a market that is evolving and the customer needs support. We’d rather have more dealers in helping us with that. Before we tried to create focus because we were supply-constrained. But we aren’t anymore.”

What did dealers have to do before?

Those who wanted into the program could choose one of two certification “levels” that required extensive investment in EV infrastructure equipment and training.

Dealers that wanted to be a Model e Certified dealer needed to invest up to $500,000 in training and charging equipment, while those that opted to be a Model e Certified Elite dealer were looking at an investment of up to $1.2 million. Ford executives said that actual costs for dealerships turned out much lower than their estimates.

And the dealers who spent all that money are now hosed. All the other dealers can choose to sell if they want. Which is around half of them. Could it be that Ford is having trouble selling EVs, because people do not really want them? Ford was trying to comply with the government, rather than producing the best car like Tesla.
