Chicago has no sovereign right to its own immigration policy

Chicago is a “sanctuary city” in which law officers are forbidden from cooperating with federal agencies to enforce immigration laws.  - Washington Examiner

This is all the more reason why National Guard troops may be necessary to carry out the democratic will for illegal immigrants to be deported.
President Donald Trump won the election in November partly because of the Democrats’ utter failure to enforce immigration law...

• “There is no reason a president should send military troops into a sovereign state without their [sic] knowledge, consent, or cooperation,” Gov. JB Pritzker (D-IL) said recently.

But, contrary to the governor’s assertion, Illinois is not a sovereign state. 

• If Trump believes local law enforcement policies endanger federal agents and that a National Guard presence would help protect them, he has the authority to deploy them, whether Pritzker likes it or not...
• Federal law is clear that states have no sovereign right to set their own immigration policies.

When former President Barack Obama refused to enforce immigration laws, former Arizona Gov. Jan Brewer signed a state law that made it a crime for illegal immigrants to be in Arizona without registering with the federal government. 

• The Supreme Court held that the policy violated the Constitution’s supremacy clause, which gives the federal government the highest authority over certain policy areas, including immigration...

Antifa deniers: Dan Goldman and the ghost of J. Edgar Hoover

Politicians and pundits are denying that the left-wing anarchist group exists. -  Jonathan Turley

Roughly seventy years ago, FBI Director J. Edgar Hoover famously declared, “There is no organized crime in America.” 

• Hoover’s stubborn denial of the existence of the mafia continued despite ample evidence to the contrary, from arrests to congressional testimony...
• Many today seem to be adopting a Hoover-esque wilful blindness about another violent group: Antifa.

Politicians and pundits are denying that the left-wing anarchist group exists, mocking President Trump’s designation of Antifa as a terrorist organization.

• Rep. Dan Goldman (D-N.Y.) seemed to morph into Hoover before our very eyes, including a posting in which he challenged anyone to “name one member of ‘Antifa.'”
• Former House Judiciary Chair Jerrold Nadler (D-N.Y.) was widely ridiculed for denying the existence of Antifa.
• Others on the left have joined Goldman in this absurd claim. Late-night host Jimmy Kimmel committed part of his monologue to assure viewers that Antifa is no more than a mythical “chupacabra.” “You understand there is no Antifa,” he said. “This is an entirely made-up organization.”...

By design, Antifa avoids typical leadership hierarchies and organizational structures. 

Antifa was first created in the 1920s, associated with the Weimar-era German communist group Antifaschistische Aktion.
It is easy to satisfy Goldman’s demand in naming some members, since they self-identify as members of Antifa...

The Latest FBI Spying Makes Watergate Look Trivial

The FBI secretly monitored the phone records of eight sitting Republican senators in an abusive fishing expedition done with impunity - Hans Mahncke

In 1972, a small team of operatives connected to President Richard Nixon’s re-election campaign broke into the Democratic National Committee’s offices in the Watergate complex to install listening devices. 

• To this day, there is no conclusive evidence that Nixon personally ordered — or even knew of — the break-in beforehand. 

Yet Watergate shaped American political consciousness for decades...

• Fast forward 50 years, and what has come to light under the Biden administration dwarfs the clumsy efforts of Nixon’s campaign operatives...

Trump Meets Face-to-Face with Hostages and Their Families: 'Your Name Will Be Remembered to Generations'

Trump Meets Face-to-Face with Hostages and Their Families: 'Your Name Will Be Remembered to Generations': 

As he met with families whose souls have been lined with worry and grief from the day their loved ones were taken to Gaza as hostage, President Donald Trump was told his role in their return would never be forgotten

Trump met with the families of those taken by Hamas at the Knesset prior to his address to Israel’s parliament. The speech and meeting came as the final 20 living hostages taken after Hamas massacred Israel civilians on Oct. 7, 2023, were released as part of a peace deal Trump helped broker.

Heh!

Faced with rising antisemitism and a radical would-be mayor, New York’s Jewish artists confront a once unthinkable question: Is it time to flee?  - Yoni Weinberg

• “New York has fallen! It’s over, I’m leaving.”
• “Real New Yorkers stay and fight. You can’t just pick up and go.”
• “It’s only going to get worse, not better.”
• “I don’t need this negativity, things are bad enough already.”...

That weekend’s debate splintered the group in a way I’d never seen before. 

The topic: Is New York still good for the Jews, or is it time to flee?...

The UK is nuts!

 

America Is Sliding Toward Illiteracy

The past decade may rank as one of the worst in the history of American education.

It marks a stark reversal from what was once a hopeful story. 

• At the start of the century, American students registered steady improvement in math and reading. Around 2013, this progress began to stall out, and then to backslide dramatically. 
• What exactly went wrong? 

The decline began well before the pandemic, so COVID-era disruptions alone cannot explain it...

• Test scores from NAEP, short for the National Assessment of Educational Progress, released this year show that 33 percent of eighth graders are reading at a level that is “below basic”—meaning that they struggle to follow the order of events in a passage or to even summarize its main idea...
• Among fourth graders, 40 percent are below basic in reading, the highest share since 2000. 
• In 2024, the average score on the ACT, a popular college-admissions standardized test that is graded on a scale of 1 to 36, was 19.4—the worst average performance since the test was redesigned in 1990...

#1 This day 1962-----MONSTER MASH ~ Bobby "Boris" Pickett & The Crypt-Kickers (1962)

Every time I scroll through Facebook, I see people clutching their pearls over Donald Trump.

Because for four years straight, while your side dismantled this country brick by brick, you said absolutely NOTHING - Ken Blackwell

Every time I scroll through Facebook, I see people clutching their pearls over Donald Trump.

• The fainting spells.
• The “end of democracy” cries.
• The fake moral outrage.

And I can’t help but laugh. 

Because for four years straight, while your side dismantled this country brick by brick, you said absolutely NOTHING.

• You were silent when Joe Biden turned the border into a welcome mat for millions of illegals. Children trafficked, women assaulted, drugs pouring in, gangs emboldened… and you stayed quiet.
• You were silent when Afghanistan collapsed into chaos, when 13 American heroes came home in coffins, when billions in weapons were handed to terrorists. Not a word.
• You were silent when the DOJ and FBI turned into political hit squads, raiding conservatives at dawn while Hunter Biden skated free with his bag of crack and Chinese cash.
• You were silent when inflation wiped out middle-class savings, when gas hit $6, when groceries doubled, and families fell behind on mortgages.
• You were silent when parents were branded as “domestic terrorists” just for fighting to protect their kids from indoctrination. When schools hid gender transitions from moms and dads. When men invaded women’s sports and locker rooms...

One-party controlled, democrat hell-holes!

'Truly a goosebumps moment': Top leaders of Jewish nation CHEER for president American Democrats called 'Hitler' * WorldNetDaily * by Bob Unruh: 

The top leaders of the Jewish nation of Israel have been caught on video, in fact, multiple videos, actually cheering for President Donald Trump, who has been described by Democrats and other leftists as a "Hitler." The cheers followed Monday the release of the last of the hostages taken and held by the terrorists of Hamas in their act of war against Israel on Oct. 7, 2023.

Top immigration official warns naturalization fraudsters could be stripped of citizenship | Just The News

Operation Twin Shield in the Twin Cities area of Minnesota flagged more than 1,000 cases suspected of being fraudulent... -  Steven Richards

“So we went, and our plan was to start getting some resources together to go after marriage fraud.

JD Vance: The Media Have Made It OK to 'Tee Off' on Law Enforcement: 

The problem here is not the Insurrection Act or whether we actually invoke it or not. The problem is the fact that the entire media in this country, cheered on by a few far-left lunatics, has made it OK to tee off on American law enforcement. We can not accept that in the United States of America.

Models are guesstimates, not gospel - AhmadFaizVolvoKlasik2 

"Climate Hansenism: The Gospel of the Guesstimate" - By Grinner&Associates
In the land of Climatonia, there lived a revered oracle named Dr. Hansen. 

He didn’t wear robes or carry a staff—he wielded climate models. 

These were no ordinary models; they were sacred scrolls of simulation, capable of predicting everything… and nothing… all at once.
The followers of Hansenism gathered weekly in the Temple of Consensus, where they chanted the sacred mantra: “Consistent with the models… Consistent with the models…”

One day, Hansen proclaimed: “By the year 2013, the Arctic shall be ice-free in summer!”
The crowd gasped. 

The skeptics scoffed. The media rejoiced.
But 2013 came and went. 

The Arctic still had ice.
The faithful responded: “Ah, but the trend was correct. The timing was symbolic. The models were… directionally accurate.”...

And so, Climate Hansenism thrived—not because it was always right, but because it was never wrong...
