“The Sunday Morning Bray”, by Bray!

Philippians 2:14-16 (King James Version)
Do all things without murmurings and disputings: That ye may be blameless and harmless, the sons of God, without rebuke, in the midst of a crooked and perverse nation, among whom ye shine as lights in the world; Holding forth the word of life; that I may rejoice in the day of Christ, that I have not run in vain, neither laboured in vain.

Who has the most to lose with the border being closed and murderers, rapists, and drug dealers being sent back home? Now the list is very long and so much of it is either in or close to the Democrat Communist Laundry, the top of the list is the drug and human cartels in South America. They are losing hundreds of billions compared to what they were making during the Biden debacle.

You think the DNC hates Trump and MAGA, can you imagine what your average drug or human trafficker thinks of him. Can you imagine how many of these monsters have been put out of business by Trump and ICE as well as the DOJ with their record drug busts stateside. These are multi-billion drug confiscations, not the show busts you have seen in the past. These are historic times with a President who is taking the war on drugs seriously.

There is no coincidence Antifa is in the middle of the riot and intimidation brigade. They have been recruited by the cartels and were running drug trafficking in Mejico under Biden. They had their own little branch of a cartel which lived on Hot Pockets. It has been reported they brought millions of dollars of drugs into America and distributed in Mejico which makes it very likely they were also involved with human trafficking.

This is why these protesters are paid very well to destroy cities and a well-organized network to harass and target ICE officers. This is a smuggling business which is making hundreds of billions so they have a lot of money and motivation to stop this ICE operation and turn the people against them. It is why there are always gang members in the crowd since they are the organizers. They are obviously working hand in hand with the DNC who has similar reasons to stop ICE and is one of the beneficiaries of those drug and human trafficking billions.

The other big losers from the border closure is the GMOs which were being paid billions from tax-payer dollars to assist getting sex slaves across. This included food and clothing, phones, and credit cards as well as legal counsel. This was a large industry which was always shading the law with their tactics and methods.

This is a well-funded machine being run by the cartels to stop what is crippling them severely. With the closed border as well as the capturing of Maduro and the naval blockade of drugs across the oceans, you are talking about a major reduction of drugs and people. Prostitution rings and Pedophile trafficking has got to be getting hurt as well or worse which is where the real money is made. Over 300,000 children were famously missing under Biden representing no telling how many billions for the cartels. This is no longer happening with Trump.

Any of these grey-haired cat ladies or Antifa Cartel thugs want to scream about how moral they are and stopping Hitler, this is who they really are. They are being paid by the worst people on the planet trying to bring in hundreds of billions of drugs and children for sex trafficking for cartels who chop off heads of cops.

Hitler was a choirboy compared to the people who are funding and organizing these protesters. These protests would never happen in Mejico or Valenzuela since the locals who dare to protest the cartels will have their entire families murdered and chopped in pieces as an example.

They can save their fighting Trump or protecting immigrants since in reality the only immigrants they are protecting are the most vicious cartel bosses and gangs on the planet. This is another DNC lie saying they are doing it for the children when in reality those children are sex slaves being used twenty times a day. Where is the virtue in that?

Hey Hey Ho Ho, Drug Cartels have got to Go.

Pray for our brave ICE Agents

Note: The above opinion is not necessarily my own, but FReeper Bray’s. If you wish to discuss this, please ping Bray.

[Diogenesis]

thank you, and Pres. Trump.

[Alas Babylon!]

No! Don’t give up any of our beautiful states. It the people, not the land!

We need a new Trail of Tears. March the liberals, leftists and deranged from the West coast, Colorado, Chicago and the Northeast to rump Canada, which will be Ontario and Quebec.

We’ll keep and populate the rest.

[Diogenesis]

Denmark and NATO should be ashamed of themselves.

"Hundreds of Greenlandic women and girls were forcibly given contraception between 1960 and 1991"
"More than 350 Greenlandic Indigenous women and girls, including some 12 years old and younger,
reported that they were forcibly given contraception by Danish health authorities in cases that date back to the 1960s,
according to an independent investigation's findings released Tuesday.
The Inuit victims, many of them teenagers at the time, were either fitted with intrauterine contraceptive devices,
known as IUDs or coils, or given a hormonal birth control injection.
They were not told details about the procedure, or did not give their consent.
The alleged purpose was to limit population growth in Greenland by preventing pregnancies.
The population on the Arctic island was rapidly increasing at the time because of better living conditions and better health care."

https://www.pbs.org/newshour/world/hundreds-of-greenlandic-women-and-girls-were-forcibly-given-contraception-between-1960-and-1991-report-says

======

"The IUDs used were often designed for adult women who had already given birth, causing severe pain,
internal bleeding, infections, and in many cases, permanent infertility or the need for a hysterectomy.
The program was primarily motivated by economic considerations,
as Danish authorities sought to alleviate the costs associated with providing social welfare,
schools, and healthcare to a rapidly growing population in Greenland.
So the Danish government used it to keep the locals from growing and stepping out on their future.
This conflicts with the NATO policy on Conflict-Related Sexual Violence (CRSV), deliberately,
and strategically used to target civilians. It inflicts long-term trauma on individuals and families,
destroys the social fabric of communities, triggers displacement, fuels armed actors’ activities
and fosters prolonged conflict and instability."

Time for another big thread as things heat up on a world-wide scale.Thanks for what you do week after week bud!

Oops! Forgot to post this:

From my AI discussion: Across the networks this Sunday, the butcher’s thumb shows up in the way each show arranges its political contrasts and supporting panels.

* CBS Face the Nation builds around DHS Secretary Kristi Noem and Sen. Mark Warner, then adds Rep. Mike Turner and Minneapolis Mayor Jacob Frey, creating an hour that mixes administration, congressional, and local officials while leaning toward voices aligned with the current policy direction.

* Fox News Sunday, pairs RINO Sen. John Cornyn with Rep. Jim Himes and Deputy Attorney General Todd Blanche, followed by a mixed panel of analysts from across the political spectrum, giving the show a more traditional point‑counterpoint structure.

* NBC’s Meet the Press features Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent alongside Sens. Rand Paul and Tim Kaine, then moves to a panel drawn entirely from major national outlets, producing an hour that reflects a single institutional lane rather than a broad ideological spread.

* ABC’s This Week centers Leftists Sen. Chris Van Hollen and New Jersey Governor‑elect Mikie Sherrill, followed by a panel of political strategists and journalists whose perspectives tend to align with the show’s biased editorial tone.

* CNN’s State of the Union pairs Sen. Ruben Gallego with former Vice President Mike Pence, angry critics of President Trump, then turns to a panel that leans toward analysts critical of Donald Trump, shaping the hour’s framing before the discussion begins.

* Fox News Channel Sunday Morning Futures offers the most ideologically consistent lineup of the day, featuring Acting ICE Director Todd Lyons, Sen. Ted Cruz, Rep. Jim Jordan, Rep. Bill Hagerty, and Heritage Foundation vice president Victoria Coates, creating a coherent through‑line focused on immigration, federal policy, and conservative governance.

No! Don’t give up any of our beautiful states.

NATO has nothing to do with domestic Danish issues.

NEW map:

[Nekman]

I think the areas for Canada need tweaking, there are large portions of Ontario that cant stand the leftists either. My in-laws live in farm country NW of the GTA....and are all solid conservatives.

[Nekman]

Anyone have the over/under odds yet on the “Stay Out of Greenland” signs being printed and the protesters getting their location assignments for the next “grassroots” media event?

[rodguy911]

I'm so glad you brought up the border. It does make a huge difference with a closed border. The problem is sending them all back.

I really liked your take on the war on the cartels which is not important:

ITS EVERYTHITNG

P> Here's one I really liked:

This is a well-funded machine being run by the cartels to stop what is crippling them severely. With the closed border as well as the capturing of Maduro and the naval blockade of drugs across the oceans, you are talking about a major reduction of drugs and people.

Capturing Maduro with no locals killed or deaths on our side was an unbelievable coup.only Trump could have organized it

Prostitution rings and Pedophile trafficking has got to be getting hurt as well or worse. THis is where the real money is made. Over 300,000 children were famously missing under Biden representing no telling how many billions for the cartels. This is no longer happening with Trump.

................................

Yesterday Bannon had a spokesperson on the border and the key question of how can we get the 22 million illegals who crossed the border illegally back home. The original number may have been 25 million and we have already sent back 3 million.

The question is a good one and assuming that we currently get 3,000 a day sent back. How long until we get them all sent back.Everyone agrees they all need to go back. 3,000 a day is over 100,000 a month.Sounds good until you realize that a little over a million a year will take 22 years to send them all back!

Now we see the near impossible job that lies before us. So now we need the most innovative plan that Trump can possibly design to send them back and quickly. Likely, it's a "follow the money type of situation" with lots of money for the returning illegals. Massive fines to the relatives of those who have not returned may also work. That's one way.

Another is punitive by jailing those in a manner of what is being done in el Salvador. However following the money may work better. If we cut off every conceivable avenue for illegals to steal money from both local,state and federal funding we may speed things up.

above Nick Shirley and his buddy Hock wearing "Learing" shirts showing the vacant daycare center that can't spell "learning". Closing all these centers may make a difference.

No matter what plan the President comes up with we need something that will work and soon or basically watch the country turned into a France or an England where others run it and we just live here.

[rodguy911]

Liberals and “progressives”(nothing “progressive” about these idiots) are insane and getting worse. Cutting off their funding may make a huge difference,lets hope so.When you have an insane opponent they are hard to handle.

[Alas Babylon!]

Yeah, that vast, half frozen, unpopulated area is where all the American liberals go.

[rodguy911]

Hard to imagine the insanity of the danes to do such an evil deeds to Greenlandic women. They appear to be hardy souls living in a dangerously cold enviroment yet still prospering. Greenland temps range from the low 60's in the summer to -40 in the winter.

Fishing is 85%of their economy.

Heres a hardy Greenlandic gal working on a ship for weeks at a time: Lt. Cmdr Maria Martens, Royal Danish Navy, and a Sirius dog in Greenland. Martens’ ship, HDMS Knud Rasmussen, visits the Sirius base camps to keep the Sirius teams resupplied. Slædepatruljen Sirius (Sirius Sledge Patrol) is an elite Danish navy unit that conducts long-range reconnaissance patrolling the arctic wilderness of Greenland with sled dogs to maintain Danish sovereignty and police the area of responsibility. The two-man teams patrol for four months, mostly without other human contact. Somehow they survive.

Let's hope they will welcome the US and even want to become part of our country.

One can only imagine if the chicoms or Ruskies took greenland over.

[Nekman]

Actually I thought the northern shores of Greenland were perfect for all those internment camps the left claimed Trump was going to build during the 2024 campaign. 😏

[DeplorableTrumpSupporter]

Sen. Chris Van Hollen (D-Md.)

Will he be having Margaritas with Murdoro while on Deface the Nation? 😀 Or maybe, he'll be talking about why he supports THUGS?
