In Bremen, an incredible 73 percent of suspects are non-Germans ... The highest crime rate of any German city is Bremen, and it just so happens that this city state also has the highest share of residents with an immigration background, at least compared to other states. “Data from the Federal Criminal Police Office (BKA) now show that, relative to population, no major German city has a higher crime rate. 15,424 crimes per 100,000 inhabitants are the highest, ahead of Frankfurt am Main (14,600) and Berlin (14,252),” writes Weser Kurier. The Free Democrats (FDP) recently labeled the city the “most...

SAN LEANDRO, Calif. - A man accused of fatally shooting a woman as she walked her dogs with her boyfriend in San Leandro had allegedly asked the couple for directions before opening fire, according to court records. Rohith Sunil, 21, of San Jose, has been charged with murder in the July 17 shooting death of Casey Lyn Way.

The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) reported 1,309 confirmed cases of measles in the U.S. as of July 15 — the highest number of cases in three decades. The fearmongering corporate media have rushed to blame decreasing vaccine rates and “unvaccinated” populations. But largely missing from or downplayed in these outlets’ coverage are important data points and questions about what may be exacerbating the outbreaks. Image CreditScreenshot / CDCThe Associated Press reported concerns that the outbreak has been worsened by post-Covid “vaccine hesitancy” and lackluster funding for vaccination programs. CBS acted shocked that HHS Secretary Robert Kennedy Jr....

‘Do you have any idea how many resources will be opened up for Americans when the illegals are gone? No more waiting in line at an emergency room, no more massive traffic in Los Angeles,’ Stephen Miller said.Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) is helping alleviate pressure on America’s emergency rooms because illegal aliens believe they might be arrested and deported if they use the emergency services. Illegal aliens are well-known to abuse such emergency services for non-emergencies, not pay, and leave the American people to pay for it. But the Los Angeles County Department of Health Services (LACDHS) confirmed to...

Though she has claimed the DIGNITY Act is not amnesty legislation, her own words undercut that defense.Rep. Maria Elvira Salazar, R-Fla., admitted in a recent interview that her DIGNITY Act could serve as a launchpad for eventually granting citizenship to hundreds of thousands of foreign nationals currently in the United States.The DIGNITY Act, according to a press release from Salazar’s office, “allows certain long-term undocumented immigrants to earn legal status, without amnesty or a path to citizenship” so that illegal aliens who broke the law can have an “opportunity.” The bill would create a “7-year earned legal status program allowing”...

Orange County resident Nick Taurus torches illegals so badly that the meeting is adjourned

A growing culture of Third Worldism—the belief that you’re entitled to use public spaces without any responsibility to care for them—is corroding civic life in cities. Immigrants from poor countries like my own, Venezuela, often joke that Americans complain too much about “First World problems.” Back home, we don’t worry about microaggressions; we’re too busy figuring out how to put food on the table or stay safe from crime and government censorship. But here’s the irony: increasingly, Americans aren’t complaining enough about Third World problems. Trash-strewn streets, loud music in public, brazen shoplifting, rising disorder, and a general decline in...

We need time to get our economic house in order before letting in more peopleConservative Leader Pierre Poilievre has long recognized what the Liberals have only started to acknowledge: immigration levels in Canada are too high and unsustainable. He has a plan to get things back under control, and it’s a sensible political strategy to take. Poilievre suggested a new immigration policy for the Conservatives in June. “We want severe limits on population growth to reverse the damage the Liberals did to our system,” he said at a press conference last month. “The population has been growing out of control,...

Clashes erupted between riot police and migrants early this morning in northern France, with projectiles thrown and fires lit in the street. Dramatic pictures and video show a group throwing rocks in the direction of the officers early on Friday, while fires blazed in the road near a park in Gravelines. The confrontation is said to have been triggered when police arrived to stop the launch of a small boat, likely bound for Britain, from a canal in the town. A number of men who faced off with police were wearing life jackets, according to reporters at the scene. The...

Anaheim will direct $250,000 to an assistance fund created to help families affected by the recent surge in federal immigration enforcement that will give grants for rent, utilities and other household expenses. Last month, the city partnered with the nonprofit Anaheim Community Foundation to launch Anaheim Contigo, which accepts donations from the community to fund emergency assistance grants for families affected by the sweeps. The $250,000 in new money for Anaheim Contigo, approved by a split 5-2 City Council on Tuesday, July 15, would significantly bolster the fund, which had received $35,000 in donations to date. ...

A drunk-driving Rhode Island state representative called Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) agents Nazis after the arrest of a confessed MS-13 terror gang member whom the politician called a “neighbor.” Enrique Sanchez, who represents Providence in the state’s House, slammed the agents on X, apparently unaware just whom he was defending. Sanchez’s incendiary comment is of a piece with those of other far-left Democrats who have accused ICE agents of Nazi or Gestapo tactics. Such labeling, federal authorities say, is the reason agents are facing a more-than 800-percent increase in assaults. Arrest and ReactionThe occasion of Sanchez’s deranged outburst was...

Another round of immigration judges began receiving emails on Friday informing them they are being let go, NPR has learned, adding to the growing list of immigration court personnel cut by President Trump amid his efforts to speed up deportations of immigrants without legal status. Fifteen immigration judges learned Friday that they would be put on leave and that their employment would terminate on July 22, according to two people familiar with the firings and a confirmation from the International Federation of Professional and Technical Engineers (IFPTE), a union that represents immigration judges. The two people spoke on condition of...

An upstart party is gaining support ahead of elections in Japan by railing against a 'silent invasion' of immigrants, pushing the government to tackle fears about foreigners as it drags into the mainstream rhetoric once confined to the political fringe. Birthed on YouTube during the COVID-19 pandemic spreading conspiracy theories about vaccinations and a cabal of global elites, the party, Sanseito, is widening its appeal with a 'Japanese First' campaign ahead of Sunday's upper house vote. And while polls show it may only secure 10 to 15 of the 125 seats up for grabs, it is further eroding the support...

Things are not happy in Monterey County. The California county, which Kamala won by 63%, is considered a ‘sanctuary’ for illegal aliens by the Department of Homeland Security. But that sanctuary status was recently violated and local officials are outraged. So is the Solidarity Network: a pro-illegal alien group that ‘monitors’ immigration enforcement arrests. Monterey County Board of Supervisors Chair Chris Lopez responded by announcing that a maternal health walk was cancelled. “Monterey County deeply values the contributions of our immigrant workers and families that strengthen our local communities and economy,” Monterey County Supervisor Luis Alejo posted. The Monterey Solidarity...

A new wave of immigration judge firings was carried out Friday, with 15 judges receiving notice via email that their employment would end on July 22. The judges are finishing the end of a 2-year probationary term that begane when they were appointed under the Biden administration. The Trump administration has been working to close borders while the Biden administration sought multiple semi-legal ways to get more illegal immigrants into the country. According to two people familiar with the firings, and a confirmation from the International Federation of Professional and Technical Engineers (IFPTE), the judges were informed their terms would...
