Squad Member Says Covering Illegal Raping 13 Year Old Is “Fearmongering”

In Democratic Socialist World it’s absolutely no big deal for an illegal to rape a child. The GOP should be playing this comment nationwide to let people know exactly who the Democrats are

Rep. Jayapal suggests coverage of migrant charged with raping NYC teen is ‘fearmongering’

Rep. Pramila Jayapal, D-Wash., and MSNBC host Joy Reid on Tuesday claimed recent coverage of an Ecuadorian migrant arrested for the alleged rape of a 13-year-old girl was “fearmongering.”

25-year-old Christian Inga was charged Wednesday with assaulting the teenage girl in a New York City park. Inga is accused of tying up the girl and a 13-year-old male and stealing their cell phones before raping the girl, according to Queens District Attorney Melinda Katz.

Inga faces charges of first- and second-degree rape, first-degree sexual abuse, predatory sexual assault, second-degree kidnapping, endangering the welfare of a child, first-degree robbery and obstructing governmental administration. Katz said this week the incident struck the “very core” of society.

I think that’s part of the problem, is that you have a lot of fearmongering,” Reid said.

Exactly,” Rep. Jayapal agreed.

It’s fearmongering to be very concerned over people being unlawfully in the U.S. and then raping a minor and all the other charges. Will anyone in the Republican Party bring this up on the House floor?

Meanwhile

(NY Post) The overwhelming majority of New Yorkers believe the ongoing migrant crisis is a serious concern — and more than half fear the Empire State is heading in the “wrong direction,” according to a poll released Thursday.

The sobering statewide survey, conducted by Siena College, found that 83% of registered voters said they believed the influx of migrants was a “serious” issue for the state.

Of those surveyed, 57% deemed the crisis — which has seen more than 203,900 migrants come through New York City since spring 2022 — “very serious,” while 26% said it was “somewhat serious.”

Split by political party, 77% of Democrats answered that the problem was “serious,” while 95% of Republicans who participated agreed that it was a tremendous issue.

Yet, most of that 77% will still vote for Democrats who created the problem, and I bet they’d vote for NYC to continue to be a sanctuary city.

Just Stop Oil Paints Private Jets With Orange Paint

Well, at least they’re going after the big wigs who tell us to live a certain life while doing the exact opposite. This is still “exhibit A” at their trial

Nice. Breaking and entering, possibly felony level because it is an airfield, criminal mischief, and vandalism. And all on video. And there are many more where they admit doing it, like here. They’re probably counting on a justice system that has previously gone easy on them, but, after Stonehenge, and these being rich folks’ planes, the outcome will most likely be much different

Airfield with Taylor Swift’s jet targeted by climate activists using orange paint

Climate activists gained access Thursday to a British airport where Taylor Swift‘s luxury plane is stationed and sprayed private jets with orange paint, a day after Stonehenge was hit with a similar protest.

The two activists made it onto the airfield at Stansted Airport northeast of London, climate protest group Just Stop Oil said in a statement.

The pair, named by Just Stop Oil as Jennifer Kowalski, 28, and Cole Macdonald, 22, used fire extinguishers filled with orange paint to spray two private jets, the group’s statement said.

It said they were demanding that Britain’s next government after the upcoming general election legally commit to phasing out fossil fuels by 2030.

So, um, how did they travel to the airport? They never show that part. Then there’s all that petroleum and to make and ship their clothes, backpacks, and smartphones. Too bad they didn’t get Swift’s private jet (she’s also a big Warmist): it would enrage the Swifties.

NY Times: Biden’s Gaza Pier Is Failing

Good thing it didn’t cost much, eh?

U.S. Pier for Gaza Aid Is Failing, and Could Be Dismantled Early

The $230 million temporary pier that the U.S. military built on short notice to rush humanitarian aid to the Gaza Strip has largely failed in its mission, aid organizations say, and will probably end operations weeks earlier than originally expected.

In the month since it was attached to the shoreline, the pier has been in service only about 10 days. The rest of the time, it was being repaired after rough seas broke it apart, detached to avoid further damage or paused because of security concerns.

The pier was never meant to be more than a stopgap measure while the Biden administration pushed Israel to allow more food and other supplies into Gaza through land routes, a far more efficient way to deliver relief. But even the modest goals for the pier are likely to fall short, some U.S. military officials say. (snip)

In the latest blow to the aid effort, the U.S. military said on Friday that it would temporarily move the pier to keep it from being damaged by high seas.

The decision “is not made lightly but is necessary to ensure the temporary pier can continue to deliver aid in the future,” the U.S. Central Command said in a post on social media, stating that the pier would be towed to Israel. Sabrina Singh, a Pentagon spokesperson, said on Monday the pier could be reattached and aid deliveries resumed later this week.

Oh, just admit it was a boondoggle, a waste of money, and a failure. This is what they call rough seas

That’s a normal day at the beach. Did they think it was going to be calm and flat all the time?

Central Command said on Friday that 3,500 tons of aid had been delivered to shore using the pier since the operation started on May 17, with about 2,500 tons of that delivered since the pier was re-anchored and resumed operations on June 8.

But much of the aid that makes it through is not reaching Palestinians, aid groups said, because of the logistical and security issues, and looting.

Aid workers say the equivalent of only seven truckloads of assistance is arriving in Gaza via the pier each day, far short of the goal of eventually ramping up to 150 trucks per day.

So, the pier is a failure and what little makes it through is stolen, mostly by Hamas.

Truckers Sue Biden Regime Of Climate (scam) Rules

Did anyone think slapping “green” rules on the people who move goods, including food, around the country was a good idea? Well, except those who want to intentionally skyrocket the cost of goods (via Green Jihad)

From the article

A coalition of energy and trucking groups is suing the Biden administration over its recently-finalized emissions standards for heavy-duty trucks.

The groups — which include the American Petroleum Institute, the American Farm Bureau, the Owner-Operator Independent Drivers Association and the National Corn Growers Association — filed a lawsuit in the U.S. Court of Appeals for the D.C. Circuit against the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) to block the agency’s tailpipe emissions rules for heavy-duty trucks, which the agency finalized in March. Provided it withstands legal challenge, the rules will require truck manufacturers to considerably increase the share of their fleets that are electric vehicles (EV) or zero-emissions models by 2032, a timeline that critics say is far too tight given that green trucking technology is in its infancy and costly.

“EPA’s final rule exceeds the agency’s statutory authority and is otherwise arbitrary, capricious, an abuse of discretion, and not in accordance with law,” the complaint states. “Petitioners accordingly ask this Court to declare unlawful and vacate EPA’s final action.”

So, pretty much what most federal agencies do, especially under Democratic administrations

Specifically, the EPA’s rules will force manufacturers to ensure that up to 25% of new long-haul trucks sold and 40% of all new medium-sized truck sales are electric or zero-emissions models by 2032, according to The New York Times. The regulation is “entirely unachievable” because of inadequate charging capacity and the present lack of commercially viable technology that would be needed to get to the EPA’s targets, according to American Trucking Association CEO and president Chris Spears.

Too bad the lawyers won’t mention in court how Biden uses a large number of fossil fueled and low MPG SUVs in convoy all the time.

Unsurprisingly, Another Poll Shows Inflation And The Economy Are Tops For Americans

Also, Americans think Kendrick Lamar won the recent viral rap feud with Drake by a nearly 4:1 margin.

Poll: ‘Inflation and Economy’ Top Priority for Americans, Abortion Last

Bidenflation“Inflation and the economy” is standing as the top priority for Americans, while abortion is coming in last, a June Cygnal survey found.

The survey asked respondents to identify their top priority, and a plurality, 27.9 percent, chose inflation and the economy as their top priority. Illegal immigration — another strong suit of former President Donald Trump — emerged as the second-most important issue, with 19.7 percent of respondents choosing that.

“Threats to democracy” came in third place, with 15.3 percent, but all other issues came in the single digits. Just 7.8 percent chose healthcare as a top priority, followed by national security (6.4 percent), climate change (5.9 percent), gun control (5.8 percent), crime and public safety (5.4 percent), and abortion (4.1 percent). Another 1.7 percent were unsure of their top priority.

Notably, a plurality of Hispanic and black respondents also chose inflation and the economy as their top priority.

Seriously, that Kendrick Lamar thing is mentioned on page 5 of the poll, but, good news for ‘climate change’: it’s not last or next to last. Bad news for Dems, gun control ranks low, but, for GOP, crime and public safety is right behind it. Bad for Democrats and Dementia Joe, the top two issues are things they’re horrible at.

Trump is also beating Biden with a favorability rating of 41.8% to 38.3%. Democrats should be very worried that Trump is at 30% for very favorable to Biden’s 20.2%. Very unfavorable is Trump 46.8% and Biden 47.9%. Those are really ugly numbers for a sitting president. Add in somewhat unfavorable and you get Trump 53.7% and Biden 58%. Sitting president. Has any been that bad? Heck, Hoover’s bad poll numbers were really over Prohibition, not the Great Depression.

Just Stop Oil Nutters Spray Orange On Stonehenge

Do they really think this is bringing people to their side?

Wackjobs giving England’s legal system “exhibit A” for the prosecution

Climate protesters arrested over spraying orange paint over Stonehenge monument

Two climate protesters were arrested Wednesday for spraying orange paint on the ancient Stonehenge monument in southern England, police said.

The latest act by Just Stop Oil was quickly condemned by Prime Minister Rishi Sunak as a “disgraceful act of vandalism.” Labour leader Keir Starmer, his main opponent in the election next month, called the group “pathetic” and said the damage was “outrageous.”

The incident came just a day before thousands are expected to gather at the 4,500-year-old stone circle to celebrate the summer solstice — the longest day of the year in the Northern Hemisphere.

English Heritage, which manages the site, said it was “extremely upsetting” and said curators were investigating the damage. Just Stop Oil said on the social media platform X that the paint was made of cornstarch and would dissolve in the rain.

Wiltshire Police said the pair were arrested on suspicion of damaging one of the world’s most famous prehistoric monuments and a UNESCO World Heritage Site.

I hope they get strung up by the buster browns. At this does, even if there is no actual damage, do they think this helps their cause, just like with all the other stunts by Just Stop Oil, Extinction Rebellion, and other climate cult groups? Or, does it annoy people who might otherwise hold the same Warmist views and drive them away, causing them to tune out?

BTW, how did they get there? Did they walk or take a fossil fueled vehicle?

Biden’s “Amnesty” For Illegal Spouses Already Looks To Face Lawsuits

If we weren’t living in a banana republic the duly elected legislative branch would be shutting down this order from Biden, and even looking to impeach Biden for violating the Constitution and his oath of office

‘Unconstitutional’: Biden’s ‘Amnesty’ Executive Order Poised For Slew Of Legal Challenges

President Joe Biden announced an executive order Tuesday that could effectively provide amnesty to well over 500,000 illegal immigrants in the United States — but the move may not pass legal muster.

Speaking Tuesday at a White House event commemorating the 12-year anniversary of the Deferred Action for Childhood Arrivals (DACA) policy, Biden unveiled his own executive order laying out a plan to give deportation protection, work permits and a pathway to legal status to hundreds of thousands of illegal immigrant spouses. Those eligible must have lived in the U.S. for at least 10 years, be legally married to a U.S. citizen and be ultimately approved by the Department of Homeland Security (DHS).

Remember, Obama stated that DACA was un-Constitutional

The illegal immigrants approved under the order will have three years to apply for permanent residency, allowing them to remain in the U.S. and gain work authorization.

But like DACA, the action is set to face legal challenges from conservative groups and immigration hawks, who say the executive order is unconstitutional and inappropriately interprets its underlying statute.

An attorney for the Immigration Reform Law Institute told the Daily Caller News Foundation that they are currently identifying legal challenges, and America First Legal – a conservative legal organization headed by former Trump adviser Stephen Miller – on Tuesday pledged legal action against the order.

And there could be others who file legal challenges

The maneuver the Biden administration is using to grant this mass amnesty is an authority known as “parole-in-place.” The president will use parole-in-place to remove obstacles in U.S. law that prevents noncitizen spouses who entered the country illegally from obtaining green cards without leaving the country, offering them a pathway to permanent legal status.

Under current law, an illegal immigrant can apply for legal status after they have married a U.S. citizen, but they are required to leave the country in order to move forward with the process. Under Biden’s expansion of parole-in-place, those noncitizens will be allowed to wait out the application process while remaining in the country.

The law is clear and how this works. Biden is eliminating the legal requirement. Under current law, this can only be used under a very narrow set of circumstances and be temporary, for which this mass amnesty doesn’t apply.

“Rather than stopping the worst border crisis in history, President Biden has overreached his executive authority to use an unconstitutional process, circumventing voters and their elected representatives in Congress, to send a message that amnesty is available to those who enter illegally into the United States,” James Massa, CEO of NumbersUSA, said in a statement.

“The action is unconstitutional. The timing is unconscionable,” Massa added.

How can we be a nation of law when the Executive Office decides to do whatever the hell it wants to do, and the Legislative Branch fails to stop it?

Weird: Scotland Misses Its Climate (scam) Target

It’s strange how so many nations who were super thrilled to be part of the Paris climate accord and Do Something seem to be failing to Do Something

Scotland misses another climate change target

climate cowThe Scottish government has missed another of its key annual targets for reducing planet-warming greenhouse gas emissions.

Figures for 2022 show that emissions fell by 50% from its 1990 baseline.

This is slightly down on the previous year’s figures but well short of its target of a 53.8% reduction.

It means ministers have now missed nine of the past 13 annual benchmarks for tackling climate change.

This is likely to be the last time progress will be measured against annual targets with the Scottish government confirming in April that it will scrap all but the 2045 net zero goal.

Still, that 50% means energy has skyrocketed, along with the cost of goods like food. But, hey, if the Scottish people want to keep voting for this, that’s their problem, and they need to keep their complaints to themselves.

Agricultural emissions have fallen by 3.2% while residential emissions are down by a significant 16.3%.

The residential changes are largely down to higher gas prices and relatively mild temperatures during the start of the year.

Have fun.

42,000 Illegals Have Crossed Border Since Biden’s Executive Order

Wasn’t it supposed to be shut down when there were that many?

42,000 migrants have crossed the border since Biden’s executive order — and thousands are still being released into the US

Some 42,000 migrants have illegally crossed the border from Mexico in the days since President Biden’s “crackdown” took effect, The Post can reveal.

Border Patrol sources say that most of the migrants are still being given court dates and released into the US — despite the Biden Administration’s claim that the new measure would stem the flow of illegal immigrants into border towns and major cities.

“Thousands are still released by the day,” a source said.

“They get their ICE appointment and they’re gone in the wind. You think they’re going to show up when they know they don’t have a legitimate claim? Of course not.”

These are the ones we know about. But, why are they being let in?

Biden’s order restricts migrants’ access to asylum when crossings average 2,500 per day and will only be overturned after crossings average 1,500 per day for a consecutive week.

In fairness, the numbers are way down from Biden’s normal, but, this is still too many. And, we know it’s all for show, and, whether Biden wins or loses, he’ll end the order the day after the election

More Cities Feel Strain as Migrants Move In Seeking Better Prospects

The bright orange fliers from the State of Utah were blunt.

“There is no room in shelters,” the advisory warns migrants contemplating travel to Utah. “No hotels for you.”

It continues: “Housing is hard to find and expensive. Food banks are at capacity.”

Confronted with a swelling number of migrants who have strained its resources, Utah in recent days has begun urging newcomers at the border and in the United States to “consider another state.”

Many moved to Utah and other states when sanctuary cities ran out of room, and the non-sanctuary cities and states do not want them. It’s an invasion.
