What Happened in Brazil on Sunday Was Absolutely Outrageous. We’re Next.

In Lula’s Brazil, the fix is in, and the Left is fine with it. Republicans should heed the warning. - Scott McKay
They’re calling it an upset. 

• But nobody — nobody — should be surprised that Luiz Inácio Lula da Silva was “re-elected” to a fourth term as Brazil’s president in a stunningly irregular vote Sunday night.
• Lula’s government is astonishingly corrupt and vicious. 

So much so that the last candidate to oppose him — former Brazilian president Jair Bolsonaro — sits in prison on a 27-year sentence for, essentially, thinking about a “coup” after losing the 2022 election to Lula under sketchy circumstances.

• But nothing like what happened on Sunday.

This year’s Liberal Party candidate — the Liberal Party in Brazil is the main conservative party — was Flávio Bolsonaro, son of the jailed ex-president. 

The younger Bolsonaro won the first round of Brazil’s jungle-primary voting and was comfortably ahead in most of the polling in advance of Sunday’s runoff.
That’s when… strange things began happening...

🚨 JUST IN: In a stunning moment, socialist Brazil President Lula THREATENS right-wing Flavio Bolsonaro on TV with a LEGAL PERSECUTION if he wins This is enraging. LULA: "On the 25th, you're gonna LOSE your immunity. GET READY...you're going to have problems. Your life is going …

More climate propaganda from Sky:

It’s the same old El Nino scare we have been fed with already this year. - Paul Homewood

The logic goes: El Nino raises global temperatures – this current El Nino is stronger than normal – global warming makes weather more extreme – therefore extreme weather will be worse.

The logic is faulty and baseless. 

• What El Ninos (and La Ninas) do is shift weather patterns around the globe...

'Awful': Amy Acton, 'Ohio's Anthony Fauci,' has only published one research paper, and you won't believe what it's about * WorldNetDaily * by Emily Kopp, Daily Caller News Foundation

'Awful': Amy Acton, 'Ohio's Anthony Fauci,' has only published one research paper, and you won't believe what it's about * WorldNetDaily * by Emily Kopp, Daily Caller News Foundation: 

When COVID-19 arrived the next year, Acton, "Ohio's Anthony Fauci," had no track record of assessing health data in the scientific literature. Acton has a medical degree, a master's in public health and had taught at Ohio State University. But the Democrat's research portfolio is very thin for someone who specializes in public policy rather than clinical medicine. A search for Acton in PubMed, the repository of medical papers hosted by the National Institutes of Health, turned up just one 2020 study about horse injuries. Nevertheless, Acton issued directives mandating policies restricting the lives of millions.

For those that don't understand what President Trump is doing, not entirely your fault, as it is presented that way, by design.

Y'all just don't hate the media enough. Seriously. - Kevin VanStory

In December 2023, there was a decision by the World Court, that gave water above land shelves to those countries and ruled they were not international water.

• The renaming of the Gulf of America isn't renaming the whole gulf. 
• It is renaming the area above our land shelves as our territory. 

You can't exactly put signs or border walls in the middle of the ocean. 

• So for legal reasons, we need to identify these new changes on the map, so that new borders are made clear to maritime traffic...

U.S. Supreme Court decides immigration judges no longer allowed to postpone deportation cases * WorldNetDaily * by Bob Unruh

U.S. Supreme Court decides immigration judges no longer allowed to postpone deportation cases * WorldNetDaily * by Bob Unruh: 

The procedure was called an "administrative closure" and has before now allowed immigrants to have legal status to remain in the U.S. indefinitely, providing what amounts to amnesty for those in violation of the law. "Administrative closure has been applied over the years in hundreds of thousands of deportation cases," the report said.

No vote fraud?

 

A new group of former federal prosecutors and so-called “human rights” activists has decided that America’s Justice Department isn’t doing its job, so they’re going to step in and start building criminal cases against government officials themselves.

And guess who’s high on their list of targets…ICE agents, of course.

Meanwhile, immigration officers are working in a horribly hostile environment, with a slew of documented assaults on them and countless violent confrontations with radical open-border leftwing lunatics.

• The left is loud and proud about its open-border agenda, which stands in direct opposition to President Trump’s America First policies...

And now, right on cue, here comes yet another organization promising to scrutinize the big bad federal immigration agents, while insisting that its mission is completely nonpartisan. 

Spoiler alert: it’s not...

DHS Markwayne Mullin Shuts Birth Tourism Loophole for Chinese

Homeland Security Secretary Markwayne Mullin is suspending a Biden-era program that allowed Chinese nationals to visit the Northern Mariana Islands without a visa, according to a federal notice filed Monday. - Mariane Angela

• The senators argued that the policy encouraged birth tourism, by which foreign nationals travel to the United States to give birth so their children can obtain U.S. citizenship. ..
• DHS cited security concerns, including the possibility that Chinese nationals could use the program to gather intelligence near U.S. military facilities. 

The department said more than 3000 Chinese nationals entered the Northern Mariana Islands through the program in fiscal year 2025...

How Green Billionaires Convinced the World to Build Thousands of Useless Windmills: Final Exclusive Extract From Chris Morrison’s New Book on the Invented ‘Climate Crisis’

Taking away hydrocarbon power and expecting a much larger grid, as yet unbuilt, to cope with all our energy requirements is a recipe for economic and societal collapse. - Chris Morrison

Windmills have had a good run since they were first seen in the reign of Henry II (1154-1189), but in a modern industrial society they should be regarded as little more than a curiosity piece.

• Without enormous cash subsidies, few if any practical entrepreneurs would invest in wind energy. 

...green subsidies now account for three quarters of the price of electricity in the UK, while “the cost of Net Zero to the public is much higher than politicians are willing to admit“...

Who caused our gasoline prices to go up?

 

DHS Shuts Down Major Chinese Birth Tourism Loophole in US Pacific Territory

DHS Shuts Down Major Chinese Birth Tourism Loophole in US Pacific Territory: 

The Department of Homeland Security has ordered the suspension of a Biden-era, visa-free travel program that the Trump administration has alleged that Chinese nationals exploited as a loophole to facilitate birth tourism.

This was the U.S.-Mexico border in Lukeville, Arizona, every DAY from 2021 to 2024.

I camped out and filmed there day and night for 7 weeks. - Jeff Rainforth
Approximately 800 people crossed through cuts in the border wall daily.

• 95% of those who crossed illegally were men under 55.

In December 2023, Border Patrol agents became overwhelmed by the number of people from around the world crossing illegally...

• Economies on both sides of the border began collapsing, including major tourist areas in Mexico.
• Mexican cartels were charging up to $50,000 per person for people from overseas. 
• The typical price was around $10,000 for international...

To this day, many people don't believe what happened when I show them my photos and videos because they never saw it on mainstream news media...

• According to Gallup Polls, 146 million people wanted to leave their home countries permanently and live in the U.S. in 2022.
• If that had happened, it would have caused a catastrophic failure of critical infrastructure, economic systems, and public institutions required to sustain a modern society.

The border is currently closed and more secure than ever before.
Build the wall and enforce the law.
