As Republicans on Capitol Hill continue to work on a reconciliation bill and delivering on the extension of the 2019 Trump tax cuts (and preventing a massive tax hike), Democrats are fear mongering about so-called "cuts" to Medicaid. In typical fashion, they're getting some help from their friends in the media to push the narrative. "The Medicaid portions of the GOP megabill would lead to 10.3 million people losing coverage under the health safety net program and 7.6 million people going uninsured, according to estimates from the nonpartisan Congressional Budget Office," POLITICO reports. "Republicans released the partial estimates Tuesday less...

NEW: A teenage illegal alien who was driving without a license at over 90 mph when he crashed into a woman & killed her in Aurora, CO last year has been given only community service & probation by the Arapahoe District Attorney’s Office. Zero prison time.

Charges have been dropped against a 19-year-old college student who was arrested during a traffic stop in Dalton earlier this month—a case that has drawn national attention and sparked outrage among immigration advocates and members of the community. The City of Dalton confirmed Monday that all charges against 19-year-old Ximena Arias-Cristobal were dismissed after a review of police dash-cam video showed she was not the driver who committed the traffic violation that led to her arrest on May 5. Arias-Cristobal had been cited for making an improper turn and driving without a valid license. However, Dalton police now say she...

Trump’s presidential blitz is realizing the dreams of conservative intellectuals in the Reagan-Bush era.Imagine a populist president who set out to create, “in the first weeks of his administration, a radically different perception of the presidency.” He could use “far-reaching executive orders” to “give various constituencies throughout the country the immediate conviction that this president, for a change, looks out for them.” The burst of presidential edicts would serve visceral as much as practical purposes: “The nation as a whole needs to be jarred by this newcomer’s determination to protect the country’s vital interests, perhaps by ordering, on national security...

DC_Draino @DC_Draino President Trump is now calling the 21,000,000 illegal aliens in America an “invasion” This is true It’s also the constitutional basis required to suspend the writ of habeas corpus and mass deport them He’s setting up the legal dominos

A 64-year-old grandmother in the U.S. without documentation is facing deportation after she mistakenly took the wrong exit on her way home from work. Ana Camero’s family says she’s currently being held at Otay Mesa Detention Center more than a month after she made the unexpected detour and ended up at the entrance to a U.S. Marines facility in San Diego. Camero was driving home from her job as a dishwasher at a La Jolla restaurant on April 7 when she stopped to get gas. She then drove into the Marine Corps Recruit Depot in San Diego by mistake. There,...

During his first term, President Donald Trump issued an executive order directing the Census Bureau to add a question about citizenship status to the 2020 national survey. There was good reason for this. The Census is used to count the population. Population numbers are then used to determine how many congressional seats are allocated to each state. Given illegal aliens aren’t citizens and ineligible to vote, they should not have representation in Congress and Democrats shouldn’t benefit from additional congressional seats based on an illegal population. “If unauthorized immigrants were excluded from the apportionment count, California, Florida and Texas would...

White House deputy chief of staff Stephen Miller said Friday that the Trump administration is "actively looking at" suspending habeas corpus, the right of a person to challenge their detention in court. If carried out by President Donald Trump, the suspension of habeas corpus would be a dramatic escalation of his administration's immigration policy by significantly curtailing a right enshrined in the Constitution. "First, you know, President Trump has talked about potentially suspending habeas corpus to take care of the illegal immigration problem. When could we see that happen in the future?" a reporter asked Miller as he spoke outside...

An evil animal abuser who tortured animals including bunnies to death on YouTube has launched a GoFundMe to try and stop Donald Trump deporting her. Anigar Monsee, 28, was convicted of felony animal cruelty on Wednesday and faces seven years behind bars - but is now playing the victim on her fundraiser. 'Hi, my name is Anigar Monsee, and I’m a single mother doing my best to raise my daughter on my own,' wrote Monsee, a Liberian national who now lives in Delaware. 'Right now, I’m facing the most terrifying moment of my life—I may be sent to jail or...

The attorney general is asking an appellate court to lift the block on a new state immigration law. The law makes it a misdemeanor for adults who came to the U.S. illegally by eluding or avoiding examination or inspection by immigration officers to enter Florida. The governor and Uthmeier contend that the judge in the case has gone beyond her boundaries in calling on Florida law enforcement agencies to stop making immigration arrests. “She’s trying to exercise authority that she does not possess. Fine,” DeSantis said. “There’s parties to the case and she’s rendered a decision even though it’s a...

Benny Johnson @bennyjohnson Jasmine Crockett: “It is not a criminal violation to enter the country illegally.” 12:18 PM · May 6, 2025

DC_Draino @DC_Draino Ok here’s an idea to deport millions more illegals *and* provide due process: We currently have around 700 immigration judges Fun fact - they work for Trump’s executive branch, not SCOTUS and are appointed by AG Bondi They have a backlog of over 3.6 million cases, which equates to a 4.5 year backlog Why not provide billions more in funding, hire 5,000 new “immigration judges” on a temporary basis, and have them clear out 15+ million illegal aliens with due process by 2028? 8:05 AM · May 6, 2025

In yet another glaring example of failed immigration enforcement and soft-on-crime policies, the illegal immigrant accused of stealing Department of Homeland Security Secretary (DHS) Kristi Noem’s purse was reportedly released after committing a similar theft in New York City just weeks earlier. Instead of facing swift deportation or serious consequences, the suspect was reportedly freed, highlighting the disastrous impact of sanctuary city policies. According to a newly released report, the suspect and illegal alien from Chile, Mario Bustamante-Leiva, was previously arrested in New York City. As he stole Noem’s purse from a restaurant in Washington, D.C., the New York Police...

VIDEOEven Kristen Welker, host of Meet The Press, admitted that in just a very short time in office, President Donald Trump has brought the illegal border crossings to the "lowest level ever recorded." That should give the lie to the pathetic term liberals have been hyping for years, "Comprehensive Immigration Reform." Their premise (with a yuuuuge ulterior motive) has been that slowing the flow of illegal border crossings is impossible without "opening a path to citizenship" for illegals which requires, wait for it, a COMPREHENSIVE IMMIGRATION REFORM bill. And yet, President Trump without that utter BS amnesty bill or any...

Three illegal immigrants from Eastern Europe have been arrested in connection with a violent home invasion, robbery, and murder that took place in Woodland Hills, Los Angeles. The suspects were identified as Georgian nationals Paata Kochyashvili, 38, Zaza Otarashvili, 46, and Besiki Khutsishvili, 52. Each of the men has been charged with murder, and their bail has been set at $2 million. According to a report by Fox News, Immigration and Customs Enforcement has issued detainers for all three men who are in the country illegally. The Los Angeles Police Department responded to a residence in Woodland Hills shortly before...

Three illegal immigrants have been arrested and charged in connection with the kidnapping of a young North Carolina mother and her baby. Two suspects were arrested on Tuesday, while a third was arrested on Friday. Per WRAL, siblings Paola Duran Duran, 25, and Miguel Angel Duran Duran, 23, were taken into custody by authorities on Tuesday and have been charged with two counts of first-degree kidnapping and one count of second-degree kidnapping each. 35-year-old Eleodoro "Leo" Estrada-Hernandez was taken into custody by the FBI on Friday morning and has been charged with two counts of first-degree kidnapping, one count of...

One of the radical-left judges involved in sabotaging President Trump’s immigration agenda has been Loomered in brutal fashion. As The Gateway Pundit previously reported, U.S. District Judge Jennifer L. Thurston, a Biden nominee, issued an injunction on Tuesday barring Customs and Border Protection (CBP) agents in the Eastern District of California from stopping illegal aliens without a warrant or proving that the person is a threat to flee before they can get a warrant. Thurston’s decision came after several individuals were arrested in January during Border Patrol’s “Operation Return to Sender.” This was just part of President Trump’s smashing success...

DC_Draino @DC_Draino Stephen Miller just called out legacy media to their faces for defending cartel thugs He says if he offered them a rent-free home in a neighborhood with MS-13 members, none of them would take it So why should other Americans be forced to deal with that? From Rapid Response 47 8:49 AM · May 1, 2025

To begin to fix immigration, we must agree the American identity is worth preserving and then work to build an immigration system that nourishes it.Can Washington discuss immigration without devolving into a debate about racism? If we lay down our Twitter weapons, perhaps we could discuss what kind of immigration we need. Should we allow anyone, from anywhere, to come here at any time? Amid the political establishment’s promotion of all immigration as virtuous and their relentless attacks on all things traditional or patriotic, we can demand something better: An immigration system that is good for America and requires that...

If we don’t insist on the total assimilation and Americanization of our immigrants, we’ll cease to be America and become something else.. If you want to know what mass immigration without assimilation produces in a country, look no further than Scotland. Immigrants from Pakistan now constitute an ethno-religious voting bloc in that country with their very own politicians advocating for nakedly sectarian interests. Recently, a video clip from 2022 resurfaced on social media of Scottish Labour leader Anas Sarwar standing in front of the flag of the Islamic Republic of Pakistan claiming that “change is coming” and forthrightly calling for...
