Good News: Biden Is Simply Letting Illegals Roam The Nation Without Settling Cases

Supposedly, Biden is finalizing an executive order which is supposed to Do Something at the border, but, really won’t. It’s an election year stunt. Meanwhile

Biden keeps rewarding illegal migrants for jumping the border

For all President Biden’s talk about trying to try to address the border crisis, The Post keeps discovering new ways he’s encouraging the tide of illegal migrants.

The latest:

The Post’s Jennie Taer reports that Biden’s team has quietly closed some 350,000 asylum cases over the last 2½ years — terminating the cases while neither granting asylum nor ordering deportation; the illegal migrant is free to move freely around the country as if he or she was never intercepted at the border.

Don Barnett of the Center for Immigration Studies found that Biden has created at least eight different programs that allow 3.3 million migrants, most of the illegal entrants, to get work permits, end-running the laws that supposedly require a half-year wait before even applying for the right to work legally — with another 1.4 million cases in the pipeline.

What does this look like?

Continued

It’s hard to say which is more outrageous: On one hand, he’s pretending to resolve dubious asylum claims while really just wiping them off the official record; on the other, he’s handing work permits to illegal migrants he shouldn’t even be letting in.

Per Transactional Records Access Clearinghouse (TRAC) data reviewed by The Post, the wipe-the-record-clean program is accelerating since ICE acting Deputy General Counsel Kerry Doyle ordered a new approach in 2022: Just 4,700 people saw their cases dismissed in 2020; then 102,550 in 2022 — more than 10 times the 2014 level.

It was 149,000 the next year and 2024 is set to pass that level when the fiscal year ends Sept. 30.

Dismissed cases, though technically still subject to deportation, get cut loose — no longer monitored by ICE or anyone.

If you reward border jumpers you are going to create more border jumpers. It’s just like all the thieving criminals in California: the state made it easy, they mostly refuse to prosecute them, and, heck, they often do not even bother catching them, as long as the theft is under $1,000. Those few who do go to court either get a slap on the wrist or the case is dismissed. That incentivizes people to continue stealing. If you allow people to come across the border, give them food, shelter, clothes, money, schooling, etc, then just let them go even though they are here illegally and do not qualify for asylum you’re telling more to just show up and declare asylum.

Your Fault: Global Boiling Causing The Loss Of Indigenous Languages

I’m so excited, this is a new one! As usual, it’s insane doomsday cult propaganda, but, it’s unique propaganda

Climate Change is Fueling the Loss of Indigenous Languages That Could Be Crucial to Combating It

There are roughly 7,000 languages spoken around the world. Indigenous groups speak more than 4,000 of them, despite making up less than 6 percent of the global population.

These languages often hold secrets to the inner workings of the planet, from the best times to plant certain crops to the healing properties of critical medicinal plants. However, a growing body of research shows that climate change is driving the loss of native languages worldwide—in big ways and small.

Extreme weather events such as hurricanes and drought are pushing Indigenous peoples and local communities away from their historical lands and languages, while changes in the timing of seasons or the distribution of different species are rendering many native words obsolete. (big snip)

The Climate Connection: As climate change rapidly alters ecosystems, centuries-old vocabularies are increasingly disappearing from dialects, experts say. Extreme weather and rising seas are driving mass migrations around the world, similar to the forced migration and colonialism that has long threatened Indigenous cultures in the past and continues today.

These cultists do realize that language changes over time, right? That some disappear, that some just change incredibly? Try reading a book from hundreds of years ago. A thousand years ago. It won’t be easy. Many languages have changed, both in usage and writing. If you time traveled back to the formation of America you’d have a tough time. Go back to the 1400’s and they’d burn you as a witch. But, you know, in Climate Cult World, no matter what happens they will drag it into their cult. It’s not like bad weather has always happened.

Islamic State Of Maldives Bans Israeli Passport Holders

Now, imagine how CNN would write this piece if it was Israel banning Maldives passport holders, considering that Islam is the state religion of the Maldives. We’d be hearing all about Islamophobia and stuff

Maldives to ban Israelis from entering country amid war in Gaza

The Maldives has announced it will ban Israeli passport holders from entering the country amid its war on Hamas in Gaza.

The presidential office of the Indian Ocean island nation, known for its luxurious resorts and endless white sand beaches, made the announcement in a press release Sunday.

Maldivian President Dr Mohamed Muizzu resolved to impose the ban following a recommendation from the cabinet, the release said.

The country’s laws will be amended, and a cabinet subcommittee will be established to oversee the efforts, the president’s office said.

Following news of the ban, the Israeli Ministry of Foreign Affairs recommended Israelis avoid travel to the island and “for Israeli citizens staying in the country, it is recommended to consider leaving, since if they fall into distress for any reason, it will be difficult for us to help.”

The Maldives is saying this is a religious war, and they’re taking the side of Hamas and their terrorism enablers in Gaza. I always find the Jew hatred wild, since both religions use the Old Testament, a Jewish religious book.

The president announced he is appointing a special envoy to assess Palestinian needs and is setting up a fundraiser to “assist our brothers and sisters in Palestine” with UNRWA, the release said.

Will the Maldives offer to take in Palestinians, or, will they be like the other Muslim nations and want nothing to do with these trouble making Islamists?

WWIII Watch: Biden Secretly Authorized Ukraine To Strike Targets In Russia

It’s not like Putin didn’t just say that doing so could widen the war or anything

The Washington Post tries to soft pedal this, forgetting that Washington, D.C., would be on the first strike list

The White House this week said it moved at “lightning speed” to allow Kyiv to use U.S. weaponry to strike limited targets inside Russia, just 17 days after Ukraine came begging for the capability. But for Ukrainians who have weathered a punishing Russian assault on the northeast Kharkiv region, those 17 days of waiting are emblematic of a White House that has lagged repeatedly behind battlefield developments at the cost of Ukrainian lives.

The new policy is aimed at shifting the strategic balance in a vital border region that is home to Ukraine’s second-largest city — an area that, if it fell, could crack the gate to a broader rout of Kyiv’s forces. Russia’s military has been attacking there for months, knowing that Ukraine’s strength is at a low point because of a seven-month lag in U.S. military assistance following congressional delay.

But until Thursday, President Biden had fiercely guarded a ban on Ukraine using U.S. military equipment to strike inside Russian territory. The fear was that the Kremlin would view those attacks as a dangerous provocation, tantamount to a direct U.S. attack on Russian soil.

Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky offered measured appreciation on Friday after Biden changed course on the weapons limits. For front-line soldiers, though, the gap between May 13, when Ukraine formally requested the change, and May 30, when U.S. officials gave the green light, was a bitter stretch of some of the most brutal attacks in the two-year-old war.

So, darned, 17 days where Ukraine couldn’t push the world to WWIII

Now Ukrainians can use U.S.-provided rockets and artillery to hit some Russian positions behind the front lines, potentially delivering relief to Kharkiv, where the front has mostly stabilized. Still, there are doubts in Kyiv, Washington and across European capitals about whether the change will be enough to transform battlefield conditions or turn back Russian forces. Biden is still refusing to let Ukraine use long-range U.S. weapons to strike airfields and other targets deeper inside Russian territory.

Granted, this is the way war should be. You attack our territory, we attack yours. But, now we’re playing with a madman, an actor playing president, and a feeble minded president, and two of the three have nuclear weapons.

(Fox News) A senior ally of Russian President Vladimir Putin says Russia is not bluffing about using tactical nuclear weapons against Ukraine and warned that the conflict could spill over into other countries.

Dmitry Medvedev, the deputy chair of the Security Council of Russia, made the comments after President Biden quietly authorized Kyiv to launch U.S.-supplied weapons at military targets just over the border in Russia that are supporting an offensive against the northeastern Ukrainian city of Kharkiv.

“This is, alas, neither intimidation nor bluffing,” Medvedev said Friday, speaking on the potential to use strategic nuclear weapons, per Reuters.

Happy Sunday!

PRC Asking Residents To Pay Lots More For ‘Climate Change’ Stuff

Certainly, the voters in the People’s Republik Of California will vote in favor of paying more taxes/fees to fund the stuff they believe in, right?

California voters will be asked for billions to fund climate, school facilities, lawmaker says

California lawmakers are poised to ask voters for billions of dollars in bond money to fund two priorities: school facilities and climate change initiatives, a legislator said.

Assemblyman Al Muratsuchi, D-Torrance, said Thursday that lawmakers next week will begin negotiating with Gov. Gavin Newsom to place the two bonds on the November ballot.

The governor, Assembly Speaker Robert Rivas, D-Hollister, and Senate President Pro Tem Mike McGuire, D-Healdsburg, face a June 27 deadline to qualify measures for the general election. Rivas and McGuire did not respond to requests for comment by deadline.

“It is my understanding that the Assembly and Senate leadership have determined that the school bond and the climate bonds are going to be the top legislative priorities as far as bond measures are concerned,” Muratsuchi said.

The measures, of which there are many including the climate scam one, have to pass the legislature before trying to get them on the ballot. I wonder why they don’t just pass the bonds as expenditures? Certainly, the majority of PRC voters elected the far leftists as their betters and leaders, knowing they were going to do this, right?

Sen. Ben Allen, D-Santa Monica, and Assemblyman Eduardo Garcia, D-Coachella, both authored bills that would turn into bond measures asking voters for more than $15 billion to fund programs around water quality and conservation, flood management, wildfire prevention, clean energy projects and more.

Didn’t the PRC already do things that make horrendous wildfires more likely? Why not just reverse course, do a 180, and clean up the brush and put in fire breaks? You know that $15 billion will just reward campaign donors and make energy more expensive

Bonds are often regarded as attractive ways to win approval for popular projects without having an large, immediate impact on the state budget. The state is grappling with an estimated $45 billion deficit, which could make bonds more politically appealing.

It’s a good way to scam the residents into paying more in taxes and fees. Seriously, what happened to all the billions already allocated for the climate scam, schools, etc? Where’d it go? Maybe it’s time for an audit of state spending. Maybe stop pissing money away money on the stupid bullet train, which ballooned up to well over $100 billion? Isn’t lottery money supposed to go to the schools? How about asking the elected officials what they’re doing in their own lives to become carbon neutral.

Biden’s Abrams Tanks To Ukraine Are Failing

This is what Brandon said when announcing the U.S. was sending Abrams tanks to Ukraine at a cost of about $310 million

(NBC News) Sending the tanks will “enhance Ukraine’s capacity to defend its territory and achieve its strategic objectives” because they are “the most capable tanks in the world,” Biden said.

“That’s what this is about — helping Ukraine defend and protect Ukrainian land. It is not an offensive threat to Russia, there is no offensive threat to Russia,” the president said.

Yes, they can be used for defense. They should be used for charging in and destroying Russian assets that are attacking Ukraine. Zelensky was demanding them. He lauded when they were allocated and arrived. How’s that working out?

US Abrams tanks failing in Ukraine as Russia mocks them as ‘empty tin cans’

Biden Brain SuckerAmerica’s Abrams tanks are failing on the battlefield in Ukraine as Russia has labelled them “empty tin cans”.

The US donated 31 Abrams to Ukraine last year in a move heralded as a potential game changer for Kyiv in its fight against Russia.

Ukraine had been complaining that its old soviet-era tanks were getting stuck in mud, not firing and constantly breaking down. But the superior US models appear to be faring little better in practice.

Speaking to CNN, Ukrainian crews working on the tanks say the Abram M1s are not as robust as touted. “Its armour is not sufficient for this moment,” said one crew member with the callsign Joker.

“It doesn’t protect the crew. For real, today this is the war of drones. So now, when the tank rolls out, they always try to hit them.”

So, we just pissed away at least $310 million for the tanks, plus training, shipping, and rounds. One problem is that the normal armor is removed

The tanks usually come equipped with “secret” uranium armour, but the US donated modified versions with Chobham armour, the composite ceramic and steel protective material developed in Britain in the 1960s. The move was likely made out of fears the uranium armour could end up in Russian hands.

But, they would still be in danger from above even with the uranium armour, due to the use of drones.

Even CNN has noticed that the tanks, which Biden was so excited to send over due to Zelensky’s demands, are mostly useless. As one of the people in the comments say

I am also an ex-tanker on the M1A1. The warfare in Ukraine really isn’t for the tank. Tanks are built more for open land spearheading with air support. When we did training in Hohenfels which is probably similar to Ukraine. When we went against OP4 seldom did tank units did well. When tanks are confined to trails or roads and not in open areas such as big fields and deserts, they are easy prey to be picked off by anti-tank units or in Ukraine by drones. The Abrahams is a good tank but like any tank vulnerable in these conditions. The same is for the Russian army as they don’t do combined arms maneuvering well and they are being picked off as well very easily including their top tanks such at the T-90.

So, wrong weapons systems for the fight.

Ex tanker here. This is what many of us in the U.S. Armor community said would be a likely issue for Ukraine. A tank by itself, while fearsome, relies on combined arms tactics for maximum effectiveness. That means coordination with air support, artillery, infantry, etc. Don’t blame the tank for having a counter that you were ill prepared for.

Which Ukraine doesn’t have. Ukraine is supposed to be getting F-16s in the coming months. Will those also be a waste of money?
