Kurt Schlichter--Bush Completes His Scummy Betrayal
"...This backstabbing creep dared say:
“And we have seen growing evidence that the dangers to our country can come not only across borders, but from violence that gathers within. There is little cultural overlap between violent extremists abroad and violent extremists at home. But in their disdain for pluralism, in their disregard for human life, in their determination to defile national symbols, they are children of the same foul spirit. And it is our continuing duty to confront them.”Now, I am not one for the dog whistle theory that everything anyone says is a secret message to one’s own supporters, but this is not a dog whistle because his scuzzy slander of Trump supporters is no secret.

EXCLUSIVE: Numbers Swell Overnight to 12K Migrants Detained Under Border Bridge in Texas
The Border Patrol is struggling to deal with what may be the worst migrant humanitarian crisis in the agency’s history. The local Border Patrol stations and processing facilities have reached capacity and can accept no more migrants.

Cash, COVID, and cover-up, part 3: 'You will have tasks that must be done' - TheBlaze
To say that the government has not been voluntarily forthcoming about its response to the COVID-19 pandemic would be to engage in massive understatement. Only a bevy of repeated FOIA requests filed by media and nonprofit organizations, combined with the incessant prying of the DRASTIC internet sleuths, have uncovered as much information as we now have. And what we have represents only a small fraction of the total: enormous portions — perhaps the majority — have been redacted, including entire lengthy emails.
We, ordinary members of the public, remain largely in the dark about what these men and women did and said to each other as they scrambled to formulate a public response to the largest public health emergency in recent memory.
