Bringing illegal immigration home to the Democrat judges and politicians, and an “Illegal Alien Snitch Hotline,” should go a long way to solving the problem. Let’s start with one of my biggest hits. Way back around 15 years ago, I was the originator of the idea to ship illegal aliens to filthy-rich Democrat towns. During the Biden administration, GOP Governors (in particular, DeSantis of Florida and Abbott of Texas) adopted my idea and shipped illegals to Democrat cities and filthy rich towns. It worked like a charm. Democrat big cities were overwhelmed. New York City Mayor Adams got so mad...

And the AfD’s popularity surges again. According to a report from Thomas Brooke at Remix News, the German government failed to properly screen and vet a whopping 88% of Afghan “refugees” entering the nation. That number equates to seven out of eight individuals—from a notoriously violent, anarchic, and backwards nation—being admitted into the German public without the appropriate background checks. But that 88% isn’t a figure in relation to a trivial whole; the German people are dealing with tens of thousands of unvetted third world foreigners: Over 31,000 Afghans, including family members, reportedly arrived without complete security checks, the report...

Paul Weston: "This is The Great Replacement writ large . The people doing it (British politicians) let in unchecked war criminals, murderers, rapists and torturers, but ban gentle French philosophers who write about it. These foreign criminals are the future Para-Military for our Traitor Class." In 2025, any Britons who can't see the writing on the wall are sheep being led into the slaughterhouse by Judas goats. The Traitor Class is going to convert to Islam, from King Charles on down. These fighting-age Mohammedan "migrants" are being ferried across the Channel in a planned invasion. Unless drastic and unlikely events...

Yesterday, Karoline Leavitt brought in a mother whose daughter was brutally murdered at the hands of a migrant who crossed the border under the Biden administration It was a dare to the press corps to see if they would cover the case of the grieving mother. Here was her appearance: [video at link] It worked. The press was forced to cover her story: So great, right? Well, not so fast. Here is how David Sanger at the New York Times covered the story — mostly as a publicity stunt or a way to deflect from the Trump admin potentially being...

There's a common saying that comes up any time mayhem is committed by illegal immigrants: Import the third world, get the third world.The examples that trigger this saying tend to be crimes that happen everywhere -- murder, robbery, rape, assault -- though the frequencies differ from country to country. What is common to the third world though, is something more subtle, known as 'informality': the phenomeon of living without rule of law (or property rights). In any country where you see big shack cities ringing a country's capital on its outskirts, you've got sizable evidence of what Peruvian economists Hernando...

Once again, Democrats are on the wrong side of the biggest story in the country. This time, it’s Maryland Senator Chris Van Hollen who is starring in the clown show after he flew down to El Salvador on Wednesday in a blatant publicity stunt to capitalize on progressive outrage over the deportation of suspected MS-13 gang member Kilmar Abrego Garcia. The case of Abrego Garcia has become a flashpoint in the battle of public opinion over President Donald Trump’s efforts to carry out the “largest mass deportation program in American history.” On March 12, immigration authorities detained the 29-year-old Abrego...

(The Center Square) – The Biden administration not only released a record number of known or suspected terrorists (KSTs) into the U.S. but also gave them Social Security numbers and taxpayer-funded welfare benefits, according to a new analysis by the Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE). DOGE posted its latest findings of alleged government waste, fraud and abuse, fully funded by Congress, in a post on X. “Under the Biden administration, it was routine for Border Patrol to admit aliens into the United States with no legal status and minimal screening,” DOGE said. It’s referring to the more than 14 million...

Democrat lawmakers from the U.S. House of Representatives and U.S. Senate are reportedly planning trips to El Salvador to seek the release of an alleged MS-13 gang member and bring him back to the United States where he lived illegally from 2012 until March 2025. Kilmar Abrego Garcia, 29, was among the hundreds of illegal immigrants—a large percentage of them MS-13 and Venezuela’s Tren de Aragua gang members—deported to El Salvador last month under the Alien Enemies Act. On Monday, Senator Chris Van Hollen (D-Md.) reportedly sent a letter to El Salvador’s ambassador to the United States asking for a...

Wretchardthecat has given us a sage analysis of the MAGA agenda: The reason the MAGA initiatives looked so disjointed to the media is they were component parts of a vast alternative worldview now coming into sight. Like the five blind men and the elephant the progressives are only now realizing the aspects of a single larger foe. Immigration control is a key feature of the MAGA initiatives: closing the border, removing illegal immigrants, keeping non-citizens from voting, and stopping federal funds from going to so-called non-government organizations that were bringing in millions of immigrants who overwhelmed housing, welfare, and educational...

After DOGE, the border shutdown, and the tariff and trade debacle, it's pretty obvious that President Trump doesn't mess around. So now he's announced that sanctuary cities are a target for federal defunding: No more Sanctuary Cities! They protect the Criminals, not the Victims. They are disgracing our Country, and are being mocked all over the World. Working on papers to withhold all Federal Funding for any City or State that allows these Death Traps to exist!!! Donald Trump Truth… — Donald J. Trump Posts From His Truth Social (@TrumpDailyPosts) April 10, 2025 It makes perfect sense. Why should cities...

I think that, by now, it’s pretty clear that the Trump administration has a set of priorities that focus on illegal immigration, international trade, and removing absolutely anything that falls under the category of waste, fraud, and abuse. Everyone knows this. It’s obvious. Which is why it’s hilarious to me that the acting head of the IRS quit because of an agreement to share data with immigration officials. Melanie Krause, the acting head of the Internal Revenue Service (IRS), will be resigning after barely six weeks on the job, in advance of the agency sharing taxpayer data with federal immigration...

At a town hall question and answer with Elon Musk in Green Bay, Wis. on March 30 on behalf of Wisconsin Supreme Court candidate Brad Schimel, the White House Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE) revealed that since 2021, 5.5 million non-citizens have been given Social Security numbers. Of those, DOGE has already identified 1.3 million who are collecting Medicaid, a $567 billion a year program to about 79.3 million people at about $7,100 per person collecting, an apparent waste of about $8 billion a year. According to DOGE’s Antonio Gracias, “We’ve gone through on every benefit program… We found groups...

It's almost like he lost a division. Venezuela's socialist dictator, Nicolas Maduro, has stepped forward with a bizarre mixture of rage and crocodile tears, whimpering about all theVenezuelan criminals shipped by the U.S. to El Salvador this weekend for a stretch in President Nayyib Bukele's famously strict prisons. According to CNN: Venezuela’s leader has described the deportation of more than 200 mostly Venezuelan migrants sent by the United States to a notorious mega-prison in El Salvador as a “kidnapping,” and denied they are criminals while backing calls for their return. “Nayib Bukele should not be an accomplice to this kidnapping,...

NEW: ICE confirms to @FoxNews that they arrested Jeanette Vizguerra, a convicted criminal Mexican illegal alien & immigration activist, in Aurora, CO yesterday. ICE confirms she has a final order of removal (deportation order) via a DOJ immigration judge, and has repeatedly had due process, including multiple stays of deportation. She notoriously hid in a Denver church for years to avoid deportation, and she has remained an immigration fugitive. Despite having a final order of removal stretching back to the Obama administration, several Democrat politicians in Colorado falsely claimed today that Vizguerra has had no due process, including Denver Mayor...

Surprising no one except perhaps CNN, the Biden administration was lying egregiously about how many illegal aliens it arrested, classifying thousands of illegals released into America as arrests. You can trust Marxists always to call something the opposite of what it is, and the Marxist Democrats always do just that. Acting ICE Director Todd Lyons publicly exposed the latest discovered Biden administration immigration fraud, which involved labeling illegal aliens who were released into our country as ICE “arrests.” The Biden-Harris administration didn’t include the hundreds of thousands of illegals it brought in through the CBP One app in its entry...

In recent weeks, the Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE) along with several government watchdog groups have uncovered a growing mountain of waste, fraud, and abuse stemming from the unmitigated catastrophe at the U.S.-Mexico border during Joe Biden’s presidency. Just as conservatives warned, the Biden administration was using taxpayer dollars to line the pockets of left-wing NGOs and facilitating an all-out migrant invasion. In one of the most shocking findings, a report from Open the Books uncovered that the Biden Department of Health and Human Services “spent $20 billion on cars, home loans, other services for migrants” through the Office of...

Department of Homeland Security Secretary Kristi Noem said Monday evening on Fox News that her agency has identified some of the “leakers” responsible for releasing internal information. On Feb. 10, Noem suggested that “corrupt” FBI agents were behind a leaked memo about an upcoming “large-scale” Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) raid in the Los Angeles area, which was obtained by the Los Angeles Times. With border czar Tom Homan echoing the secretary’s suspicions a day later, Noem said on “Hannity” that “some” of the internal leakers had been caught, but she did not specify which agency they belonged to or...

Behind Broken Borders: Sachs’ Weaponized CompassionJeffrey Sachs, a noted economist and influential figure in global policy circles, has long been celebrated as an architect of sustainable development. Yet behind this polished veneer lies a more unsettling story, one that implicates him in masterminding the invasion of the southern border of the United States and beyond. By co-opting established religious organizations—chief among them Catholic Charities—and harnessing taxpayer dollars, Sachs has effectively weaponized compassion to orchestrate a mass migration crisis. His book, Ethics in Action for Sustainable Development, which carries a foreword by Pope Francis, serves as the blueprint for this operation....

Since my post a few days ago about the demise of the Eric Adams prosecution, controversy has continued to swirl around the matter. On the side supporting the action of the Trump/Bondi Justice Department, several new voices have emerged to join what were previously the lonely cries of a handful of people like myself and Josh Blackman. These new voices include James Copland and Rafael Mangual (of the Manhattan Institute), writing in an op-ed in the Wall Street Journal on February 18; and Alan Dershowitz in a column in the New York Post on February 19. On the other side...

The idea comes courtesy of two high-level state officials. In an era where federal inertia and urban chaos threaten the fabric of our republic, two visionary state leaders — Missouri senator David Gregory and Mississippi attorney general Matthew Barton — have dared to propose a solution as bold as it is American: deploying bounty hunters to track down criminal illegal aliens. Their legislation, Senate Bill 72 and House Bill 1484, offers a $1,000 reward per deportation, a concept now rippling across the heartland. To the timid, it’s a provocation; to the resolute, it’s a reclamation of sovereignty. As conservatives, we...
