Thanks, s&s....and exit. I did find it and listened again. I don’t think I fell asleep this time lol. Couldn’t believe my ears when he called Biden a dumb SOB. I don’t condone the language, but I couldn’t help but laugh.

Thousands of Haitian migrants who fled the makeshift encampment at Del Rio, Texas, rather than be deported to their country of origin this week have reportedly opted to lie low in Mexico as they gear up for another attempt to cross into the US.
The Daily Mail reported Friday that some migrants who left the camp under the Del Rio International bridge had been seen buying bus tickets in the bordering city of Ciudad Acuña, Mexico, that would take them to major transport hubs like Mexico City and Monterrey. Some bought tickets for Nogales, a Mexico border city which adjoins a city of the same name in Arizona.
“They just fled back over that river [Rio Grande] and ran. Hundreds and hundreds of them that I saw. I personally saw,” Todd Bensman, the senior national security fellow at the Center for Immigration Studies told the outlet. “They told me they were fleeing because of the deportation flights.”
“If you can just find a way to stay in Mexico, deportation mania will pass and they’ll just quietly cross over somewhere else where there’s no media and no camp,” Bensman claimed to the Daily Mail. “They’re just going to wait for another day and then they’ll cross through. So if the administration is never able to account for another 5,000, there’s only one explanation.”
Homeland Security Secretary Alejandro Mayorkas told reporters at the White House Friday that approximately 8,000 migrants had returned to Mexico “voluntarily” after the Biden administration began clearing the encampment Sunday. Mayorkas added that another 2,000 migrants had been flown back to Haiti — a country many of them had not lived in for more than a decade — on 17 deportation flights.
Mayorkas says as many as 12K out of 17K migrants have been released into U.S., and ‘it could be higher’
Secretary of Homeland Security Alejandro Mayorkas admitted Sunday that the vast majority of Haitian migrants who crossed the southern U.S. border in recent weeks have already been released into the United States, and it is possible that more will follow them.
So far, approximately 12,400 of the people are having their cases heard by immigration judges, while another 5,000 are being processed by the Department of Homeland Security. Currently,, only 3,000 are in detention.
I just heard about it yesterday afternoon, not much information yet but the fatalities.
Most likely cause is a rail fault. (Said the cold-blooded old engineer.)
That particular rail line runs just South (actually about 60 miles) of the Canadian border in some VERY wide-open ranch/farm land so train speeds get up pretty high.
Only good news is that's the only time I can recall I've heard of any major Amtrack problem, although there have been lots of times those trains have been stuck in snow and even one that hit a moose over by Kalispell/Whitefish and got a minor derail.
Good morning, TFT.....except NeverTrumpers.
Thanks for the link to RPDJTs rally speech, s&sf....and, the sneaky kitty gif 😻
Thanks for asking for the link, Judy. Hope all goes well with the home completion list, this week.
Thanks for the Setting the Record Right cartoon, Gran. It is spot on.
I thought it was something real fancy and didn’t want to show my ignorance by asking, lol.
That looks so good! Thanks!
So glad you had a great time with your grandsons. How old are they?
It’s been my life long dream.
Glad you had fun on your trip.
RE: LAKSIDE GRANNY
Must be all that ‘target practice’ she was doing the other night.
Nice! Our highs are in the upper eighties this week, much better than the hundreds.
Maria is having a good show this AN as usual.
Thank you for the info.
If you hear anything new would you please relay it?
TIA.
Good morning, Jane!
Watching Maria, an excellent show as usual.
😂😂
She never misses!
Don’t feed the trolls!
cute!
I’m watching Maria too.
Do you think Garland will have the audacity to shut down Durham so no more indictments?
Biden has no shame and I wouldn’t put it past him to do this.
And will the pubbies write more strongly worded letters, Grahamnasty take to Fox to sputter and stammer?
Sending all their manpower to Del Rio left other parts of the border wide open, so a lot of them just went a little south and came through.
How are you feeling this morning? Saw your post, about not feeling well (last night) :-(
Hope you had a good night.
