"Republican governors interfering in that [US immigration] process and using migrants as political pawns is shameful, is reckless, and just plain wrong," Jean-Pierre said during a press briefing. More than 10,000 undocumented migrants from Texas and Arizona have been transported by bus to cities such as Washington, DC, New York City, and Chicago.

We see a lot of kids in these pictures. What’s your response to this? Is this a good way to protest the country’s failing immigration policies?”

NBC News went after a conservative digital strategist who posted videos show Pennsylvania Lt. Governor and Senate hopeful John Fetterman having trouble speaking while on the campaign trail. NBC accused Greg Price of doctoring in the videos, when in fact the speech issues exhibited by Fetterman are likley the affer effects of a stroke he suffered earlier this year. Price put together a supercut of Fetterman having difficulty stringing words together to form coherent sentences, but for NBC, the real issue is not whether Fetterman is healthy enough to serve his constituents, but accusing Price of "doctoring" the images.

CNN - Our four-legged friends don’t drive gas-guzzling SUVs or use energy-sucking appliances, but that doesn’t mean they don’t have a climate impact. In fact, researchers have showed that pets play a significant role in the climate crisis. But what do Barkley and Whiskers have to do with our warming planet? It’s the products we buy for them that need a closer look. Their meat-heavy diet is the biggest contributor to their carbon pawprints, which requires an abundance of energy, land and water to produce. And the production of pet food emits huge amounts of planet-warming gases. According to a...

Liberal media personalities are furious after Florida Governor Ron Desantis sent two planes of migrants to the uber-posh Martha’s Vineyard in Massachusetts. The island is home to the Obamas, Spike Lee, David Letterman, Carly Simon, James Taylor, Mike Nichols, and Diane Sawyer. Needless to say, this particular island is very exclusive and probably does not have the issues that border towns face on a daily and consistent basis. So when around 50 illegal aliens show up on the island, it is a problem. Local officials gave calm interviews on television, referencing how they housed the migrants in a church to...

The White House came close this week to facing yet another crisis, this time over a railroad dispute that could have taken a crowbar to the U.S. economy ahead of crucial midterm elections. But in the end, a tentative deal was struck, with both sides crediting the Biden administration with stepping in to help avert a strike that was set to begin on Friday — one that could have further disrupted the nation’s fragile supply chain. Administration officials became involved in the talks weeks ago, lobbying both sides around the clock to argue the stakes were too high for a...

15 Sep 20220 On Thursday’s “CNN Newsroom,” Rep. Bill Keating (D-MA) reacted to Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis (R) sending migrants to Martha’s Vineyard by stating that Martha’s Vineyard is “very small” and so there are “absolutely no resources to deal with this.” Keating said, “That’s part of the cynical nature of this. Martha’s Vineyard is a very small populated island. People commute from the land just to work there because there’s no housing. So, there’s absolutely no resources to deal with this. But fortunately, religious community members and local officials and now state officials are springing into action to deal...
