Senate Democrats Vote Against Bill Stopping Biden From Flying Illegals To Small Towns

These would be the same Democrats who freak out over illegal aliens in border states being shipped off to sanctuary cities. This, though, is more than just flying them around to small town America after they’ve jumped across the border as the Biden regime has been doing

All Senate Dems vote against barring taxpayer funds to fly illegal migrants to US towns

Every Democratic lawmaker in the Senate voted against an amendment that would bar taxpayer funds from being used to fly illegal aliens to U.S. towns and cities, according to the Republican senator behind the amendment.

“Tonight every single Senate Democrat voted against my amendment that would stop Biden Admin from using taxpayer dollars to charter flights for hundreds of thousands of illegal aliens from their countries directly to American towns to be resettled,” Republican Tennessee Sen. Bill Hagerty tweeted early Saturday morning.

“Indefensible,” he added.

Hagerty announced earlier last week that he was set to file an amendment to the appropriations bill that would “prohibit federal funds from being used to secretly fly illegal aliens from other nations directly into states across the country,” according to his office’s press release.

“Let me cut through the procedural language here. I’m bringing forward a vote on a very simple question: Do you support American taxpayer dollars being used to fly illegal aliens into the United States from places like Venezuela and Haiti, into America to be settled in towns and cities near you? If so, then vote against me. Vote ‘no’ to preserve the practice of using taxpayer dollars to charter planes that move and import thousands of illegal aliens into your states,” Hagerty said Friday on the floor of the Senate.

And when Biden flies those from other nations he sticks them in small town America, in places that can ill afford them and do not want them. He’s mostly not sending them to sanctuary cities, counties, and states. It would be nice if more Republican run states would take them and ship them right off….well, it would be nice if they weren’t being imported from other countries to start with.

Meanwhile

(UK Daily Mail) The US Border Patrol chief said the crisis at the southern border is a ‘national security threat‘ that ‘keeps him awake at night’ in a new interview during which he spelled out the danger posed by the millions of illegal migrants who’ve entered the country in recent years.

Border Patrol chief Jason Owens said during a sit-down with CBS News that he is mostly concerned with the tens of thousands of illegal migrants who haven’t been apprehended and processed at the border on their way into the US.

‘What’s keeping me up at night is the 140,000 got aways,’ Owens said – the number of migrants who have snuck into the country undetected since October.

‘Why are they hiding? What do they have to hide? What are they bringing in? What is their intent? Where are they coming from?’ Owens explained are the primary concerns of the USBP about the got-aways, whose backgrounds and locations are virtually unknown to the government.

He’s saying they know nothing about these people. Are they terrorists? Are they gang members? Murderers? Rapists? Part of a theft group? We don’t know. Heck, what do we know about all the ones Biden is flying in from other countries?

Hawaii, Which Couldn’t Survive Without Fossil Fuels, Holds Climate Doom Conference

For a change this one doesn’t include hundreds if not thousands flying in

Hawaii Climate Week’s 2-day conference takes on challenges and solutions of climate change

climate cowHawaii Climate Week is underway on the islands. It’s a time for Hawaii residents to look at the challenges of global warming and solutions.

The week’s activities include a two-day climate conference led by federal and state agencies, a film screening on marine conservation, and an agroforestry community workday.

“Climate impacts are being felt deeply across the state. Climate Week highlights the need for urgent action on implementing climate change strategies that are equitable, culturally responsive, and resilient,” said DLNR Chair Dawn Chang, who also serves as Commission Co-Chair.

Climate Week will highlight the many actions that the Inflation Reduction Act and other federal funding sources have supported, including the rollout of the fifth National Climate Assessment’s Hawaii and Pacific Islands chapter and the official launch of the state Comprehensive Climate Action Plan.

Sounds more like a Democrat party campaign conference, but, regardless, without fossil fuels Hawaii would be relegated to living like it’s 1800. No more tourists flying in on fossil fueled planes and using FF planes, helicopters, and vehicles to travel the islands. No more FF boats going out and catching fish. No more FF ships bringing goods and food to the islands, which are not particularly good at agriculture. Who will build TVs and WiFi routers? Have fun sewing your own clothes, since animals like sheep and cows will be banned as being Bad for ‘climate change’. The military bases will have to leave, taking a pretty big chunk of funding with them.

If they want EVs, solar panels, and wind turbines, how are they brought in? That will be tough on non-fossil fueled boats, eh?

The Senators and Representatives will be forced to take sailing ships to the mainland, which is no small trip. It’s almost as far from the mainland as LA is from D.C.

Excitable Kamala Threatens Israel Over Rafala Threats Or Something

Interesting how Democrats spend more time threatening Israel than they do Hamas, eh?

Kamala Harris Says ‘Consequences’ Possible if Israel Raids Rafah; ‘I Have Studied the Maps’

Vice President Kamala Harris said on Sunday that the administration had not ruled out “consequences” for Israel if it defied President Joe Biden and attacked Hamas in the southern Gaza city of Rafah.

Biden has warned Israel publicly not to attack Hamas in Rafah, due to the presence of large numbers of civilians there, which the terrorist group uses as human shields. Israel says that it cannot win the war without defeating the last four Hamas battalions in Rafah.

Harris’s spoke to ABC News on Sunday, telling a reporter that “I have studied the maps” of southern Gaza:

In a wide-ranging new interview with ABC News, Vice President Kamala Harris suggested there could be “consequences” for Israel if it moves ahead with a planned invasion of Rafah in its pursuit of Hamas fighters.

[Senior congressional correspondent Rachel] Scott followed up: “Are you ruling out that there would be consequences from the United States?”

“I am ruling out nothing,” Harris replied.

Yeah, well, if this is anything like her being border czar, absolutely nothing will happen. Regardless, perhaps the Biden regime should spend their time getting Hamas to give up their hostages, for which there are 6 known Americans, and put down their arms, since they broke the ceasefire, rather than yammering at Israel, the nation that was attacked. But, the Democratic Party base is made up of Israel haters, who’ve gone so far down that road that they hate Jews and support Islamic extremists. Those same Islamists treat women like garbage and are happy to destroy everything that Democrats love.

Biden Regime Proposes Swapping Palestinian Terrorists For Hostages Held By Hamas

This will upset the unhinged Jew hating/Islamic terrorist loving Democrat base, who do not care about the hostages, they just want a permanent ceasefire which will take the heat off Hamas and allow them to rearm and reconstitute

U.S. proposes hostage-to-prisoner ratio in Gaza truce talks – Israeli official

The United States has made a “bridging proposal” for the number of jailed Palestinians that should be released by Israel in exchange for every hostage freed by Hamas in any new Gaza truce, an Israeli official briefed on the Qatar-hosted talks said on Saturday.

An Israeli delegation led by Mossad chief David Barnea is in Doha for indirect negotiations with the Palestinian militant group Hamas, which CIA director William Burns is helping Qatari and Egyptian officials to mediate.

“During the negotiations, significant gaps came to light on the question of the ratio” of prisoners to be released for each hostage, said an Israeli official, who requested anonymity.

“The United States put a bridging proposal on the table, to which Israel responded positively. Hamas’ response is pending.”

Too bad Israel can’t do something like put small bombs in their head that also serve as tracking devices.

The sides have previously said that, if a deal is reached, Israel would suspend its Gaza offensive for six weeks and recover 40 of 130 hostages still held by Hamas from an Oct. 7 cross-border rampage that triggered the war.

If they release all the hostages and disarm, then the war ends.

Hamas wants any ceasefire to include an Israeli commitment to end the war and withdraw forces from Gaza. Israel has ruled this out, saying it will eventually press the campaign to dismantle Hamas.

That’s also what unhinged Democrats want. Israel will be vilified now matter what, they just need to dismantle all the Hamas  infrastructure and kill as many as possible. Palestinians back them and hate Jews. They made their bed, let them lie in it.

Who’s For A Green Sabbath?

It’s always cute when the people who tend to denigrate religion…well, mostly Judaism and Christianity, never Islam…try to use it for their nefarious purposes with their doomsday cult

Breakpoint: Remember the Sabbath … to stop global warming?

St. GretaWhy should people exercise, eat better or cut back on caffeine consumption? In the not-so-distant past, the answer was simple and compelling: It would be good for them.

Today, however, according to the United Nations, the National Library of Medicine and the New York Post, one of the main reasons to do these things is to fight climate change. In fact, Google virtually any good habit, along with the words “climate change.” The results are plentiful.

Apparently, at least according to the mainstream press and governmental agencies, the best way to sell behavior, policy or technology is not by touting the obvious, actual benefits, but rather some tenuous, highly theoretical way they could, if looked at in the right light and all the stars align, possibly, help cool the planet.

The problem here is that the cult always wants to push solutions that involve higher taxes/fees along with taking away people’s liberty and life choices, empowering government. Interestingly, almost none of the climate cultists actually do things that are good habits to “fight climate change”. Exercise and eating better are, of course, real.

This is a telltale sign that, whatever the scientific merits of manmade climate change may be, it has become a religious system for many, complete with genuflecting, indulgences and ritual invocations. In fact, climate change was recently offered as a reason to engage in an actual religious practice, one that goes back thousands of years and is beneficial, even essential, to human well-being. In The Washington Post recently, advice columnist Michael Coren argued that one way to fight climate change is to take a weekly day of rest. He called his idea a “green Sabbath.”

“[C]lergy are now arguing that this practice, whether in a secular or religious context, can help redirect the world’s societies away from catastrophic climate change. In their view, it’s as essential to the future as any clean-energy technology or electric vehicle. A shared day of rest, at a minimum, might slow the pace of consumption, curb emissions or ease the burden of so many people working weary weekends.”

Ah, but, here’s the thing: the article meanders along and makes the case that the climate cultists should leave the proscription to “Remember The Sabbath day, to keep it holy”, alone. Stop conscripting everything, stop appropriating everything, especially the Word Of The Lord.

The Sabbath, just like exercise, better eating and less coffee is good for us because of how God made us. The strange need to justify everything with another threat of catastrophe is anything but restful. The original reasons to take a day off are better than an appeal to reducing carbon emissions.

Unfortunately, the Warmists will always find away to merge their doomsday cult beliefs with everything…well, not really Islam, yet, because that’s a good way to have a fatwa thrown your way and a bounty on their heads.

Excitable Kamala To Announce Red Flag Funding In Trip To Parkland, Florida

Interestingly, there were more than enough red flags for the Parkland shooting wackjob for the police to take away the guns he shouldn’t have had in the first place, to even detain him

Harris to announce gun control measures on visit to Parkland, Fla.

Vice President Harris will make two announcements on gun violence prevention efforts Saturday in Parkland, Fla., where 14 students and three staff members were killed in a school shooting in 2018.

Harris is set to meet with families of those killed in the mass shooting and will visit Marjory Stoneman Douglas High School with them, along with Rep. Jared Moskowitz (D-Fla.) and state officials. She will then deliver remarks on gun safety measures at 2:45 p.m., according to a White House official.

The vice president will announce the launch of the first-ever National Extreme Risk Protection Order Resource Center, which will aim to help states effectively implement red-flag laws through training and technical assistance. The center will be funded through a Department of Justice grant stemming from the bipartisan gun control bill that President Biden signed into law in 2022.

Harris also will announce an official call to action for states to pass red-flag laws and to use the resources from the bipartisan gun control bill to implement them.

From what we’ve seen, red flag laws have not worked. In many big shooting incidents the laws were not used, despite all the red flags. If they actually worked, and if they protected people’s Constitutional, both national and state, rights, they’d be fine. Of course, the wackjobs hellbent on murder could using knives, cars, learn to build a bomb.

I’m looking forward to the typical word salad from Kamala
