Surprise? After Trump Delays Deportations Operation Pelosi Calls For Amnesty For Illegal Aliens

By William Teach June 24, 2019 – 6:43 am

President Trump reportedly spent twelve minutes talking with House Speaker Nancy Pelosi about the planned operation to pick up roughly 2,000 illegal aliens who are under final deportation orders as signed by federal judges. He supposedly wanted to give Congress time to get something done on funding to deal with the current crisis at the border. The House and Senate have slightly different ideas on how the $4.5 billion would be allocated, and need to reconcile their two bills. So, of course, we get this garbage

Nancy Pelosi to Donald Trump: Thanks for Halting a Few Deportations, Now Give Us a Giant Amnesty

House Speaker Nancy Pelosi responded to President Donald Trump’s decision to delay the deportations of a few hundred recent illegal migrants by asking for a nationwide amnesty for millions of migrants living in the United States.

“Mr. President, delay is welcome,” she tweeted, adding, “Time is needed for comprehensive immigration reform.”

In recent weeks, Democrats have been stepping up their calls for “comprehensive immigration reform,” usually by praising the 2013 “Gang of Eight” amnesty and cheap-labor bill. Democrat’s use of “comprehensive immigration reform” is shorthand for a political deal that would promise better border security for Americans in exchange for an immediate nationwide amnesty that would provide Democrats at least 10 million new voters in a decade.

Pelosi’s tweet is a direct response to Trump’s tweet

Democrats say they aren’t for open borders, but, they entice people to come illegally, they’re against the Border Patrol, ICE, any border barriers, requiring asylum seekers to show up in court, nor deporting any illegal, even those that are clearly criminals. And they want to give them cheap and easy amnesty, jumping the line that lawful citizenship seekers are waiting in, following the rules, and paying the money.

Oh, and here’s this schmuck

Police Arrested 70 Hotcoldwetdry Protesters Outside Of Evil Carbon Polluting NY Times Building Or Something

By William Teach June 23, 2019 – 3:12 pm

Who can blame them? The NY Times building has a huge carbon footprint, and the company itself uses vast amounts of fossil fuels to gather, create, and disseminate their version of the news

Police arrest 70 climate change protesters outside New York Times

Police arrested 70 environmental protesters outside the New York Times headquarters who laid down in the street and climbed onto the building to demand the newspaper start referring to climate change as a climate emergency, police and media reports said.

New York police arrested 67 people and Port Authority police arrested three others, a police spokesman said. Charges were pending.

Protesters blocked the street by lying down in a “die-in” and affixed a banner to the skyscraper in midtown Manhattan saying “climate change = mass murder,” with the word “change” crossed out and replaced with “emergency,” according to pictures posted by the website of 1010 Wins radio.

Another banner was attached to the Port Authority Bus Terminal across the street saying simply “climate emergency.”

Demonstrators chanted “tell the truth,” a reporter for The Guardian on the scene tweeted.

According to 1010 Wins, a spokeswoman for Extinction Rebellion, Eve Mosher, said the group wants the media to report on “the climate emergency” so that “people can start pushing for more radical responses.”

Another protester, Donna Nicolino, told The Guardian she was ready to be arrested because “we want the New York Times as well as all the other media to treat climate change as the crisis it is.”

Yup, these are the American offshoot of the UK created Extinction Rebellion nutters, who apparently think that the NY Times, which has propagated all sorts of climate hysteria through the years, is part of the problem.

Trump Delays Plan To Deport Illegal Aliens Under Final Orders

By William Teach June 23, 2019 – 8:54 am

This really does make one wonder what the real idea is behind this. Is he really attempting to play nice with Democrats? Or is he setting them up? Or, it could be that ICE wasn’t ready, or that the delay will make it easier to get the illegals in a week or two

Trump Says He’ll Delay Deportation Operation Aimed at Undocumented Families

President Trump on Saturday delayed plans for nationwide raids to deport undocumented families, but he threatened to unleash Immigration and Customs Enforcement agents in two weeks if Democrats do not submit to changes in asylum law they have long opposed.

The announcement, made on Twitter as Mr. Trump was meeting with aides at Camp David, was the president’s latest attempt to pressure his adversaries into making immigration changes. Last month, he threatened to levy tariffs on Mexico unless it did more to stop the flow of migrants into the United States.

Immigration agents had been planning to sweep into several immigrant communities in 10 major cities — including Miami, Los Angeles, Baltimore and Chicago — beginning on Sunday. Officials said on Friday that they had targeted about 2,000 families in a show of force intended to demonstrate their strict enforcement of immigration laws. Children of immigrants — some of whom were born in the United States — had faced the prospect of being forcibly separated from their undocumented parents.

The president’s abrupt reversal on Saturday came as lawmakers were considering a measure to send $4.5 billion in humanitarian aid to the border, money the Trump administration has said is desperately needed to handle a huge influx of migrants.

Some Democrats, including members of the Congressional Hispanic Caucus, had threatened to withhold their support for the funding package when it comes to a vote in the House this upcoming week, in protest of Mr. Trump’s immigration policies. The specter of high-profile immigration raids had risked imperiling its chances of passage.

So, Democrats were willing to block a bill meant to help all the people showing up at border demanding asylum because a federal agency was going to do the job they were created to do, namely, enforce federal immigration laws regarding people being unlawfully present in the United States? After all this time of whining about “concentration camps”? Huh.

BTW, not once in this NY Times piece, you know, The Paper Of Record, is it mentioned that the illegals in question are under final deportation orders, having gone through the full process and judges making those final determinations.

Democratic lawmakers and immigration activists had demanded in recent days that the raids be prevented, calling them a cruel attack on minority communities whose only crime was illegally entering the country.

The law states that the penalty for such is a small fine and deportation. If they do not like this, change the law. Consider that many have actually broken other laws, usually including identity theft, which harms citizens. They are also sucking up funds and resources that should go to legal U.S. citizens.

But Mr. Trump made clear he planned to use the threat of family deportations to extract concessions from Democratic lawmakers. He said he had delayed the raids “to see if the Democrats and Republicans can get together and work out a solution to the Asylum and Loophole problems at the Southern Border.”

“If not, Deportations start!” he tweeted.

Of course, Democrats are still nutso

That came out right before Trump said he would delay the raids. Here’s a sitting member of the U.S. Congress, who took an oath to uphold the Constitution and all laws, telling people they should shelter illegal aliens under final deportation orders. People were wondering if she would open up her own fancy pants home to shelter illegals.

If Democrats are smart, they’ll negotiate to help fix some issues at the border. We all know they won’t, because there are enough nutters like AOC, who will be tweeting and speaking out, getting their soundbites, and telling U.S. citizens that they aren’t serious about protecting the U.S.

Your Fault: Mental Stress Of Coastal Residents Rising Due To ‘Climate Change’

By William Teach June 22, 2019 – 4:07 pm

See, if only you hadn’t driven a fossil fueled vehicle and/or taken a fossil fueled flight to vacation in these coastal areas providing them with money and jobs they wouldn’t have mental stress, you guys

Mental Stress on Rise as Coastal Towns Confront Climate Threats

When community leaders in the town of Piermont, just north of New York City, ask residents, “How long do you want to live here?” the question is more than a personal one.

Piermont, parts of which are set on a narrow peninsula that juts out into the Hudson River, is hugely at risk from rising sea level rise linked to climate change, and may become one of the early U.S. communities that need to retreat to higher ground.

Right now, flood walls can buy time. But in Piermont, “retreat has been on the agenda for a long time”, said Kristin Marcell, who has helped residents discuss the idea as part of her job with the New York State Water Resources Institue.

In other words, her jobs is to Scare people which gives them all this mental stress

Dealing with worsening land losses can take a massive toll on communities who are preparing to uproot themselves as their homes vanish under their feet, said Robin Bronen, who heads the Alaska Institute for Justice.

The group has been working with 15 remote coastal Alaskan communities facing imminent climate-related threats, she said at the gathering at Columbia University.

“There’s an enormous amount of grief from leaving these places,” she said.

“This conversation needs to really, really include what is the mental health” situation of the person moved, she said.

The closest station to Piermont, NY, is at The Battery, at the lower tip of Manhattan. The actual tide gauge, with actual data that goes back 1856, shows “The relative sea level trend is 2.85 millimeters/year with a 95% confidence interval of +/- 0.09 mm/yr based on monthly mean sea level data from 1856 to 2018 which is equivalent to a change of 0.94 feet in 100 years.” That’s below average for a Holocene warm period. If idiots want to scare themselves over something that is entirely normal and has little to do with Mankind, well, when are they going to give up their own use of fossil fuels? If they really cared, they would demand that Route 9W be moved outside their town. Or blow it up. And no more fossil fueled ships at their marinas.

Bummer: ICE Set To Start Mass Arrests Sunday

By William Teach June 22, 2019 – 10:30 am

This will make the supporters of illegal immigration super sad all weekend long

ICE set to begin immigration raids in 10 cities on Sunday

Immigration and Customs Enforcement is pressing forward with a plan to remove, arrest and deport families with court-ordered removals in 10 cities beginning Sunday, according to a senior immigration official, after President Donald Trump’s tweet revealing an operation was imminent.

ICE has said it was considering options to arrest and deport families who have gone through their legal proceedings but has refrained from publicly providing the scope and timeframe of the operation, which officials say could lead to a situation where a family is separated and could cause a backlash against the department. (snip)

Last year, the Executive Office for Immigration Review, which oversees the nation’s immigration courts, announced that it had begun tracking family cases filed by the Department of Homeland Security in 10 immigration court locations: Atlanta, Baltimore, Chicago, Denver, Houston, Los Angeles, Miami, New Orleans, New York and San Francisco.

The cases are being expedited to try to process the families in under a year.

Morgan said ICE had worked closely with the Justice Department on the family expedited docket and that the “results were very disappointing,” claiming that some families haven’t attended their immigration hearings.

In February, ICE sent around 2,000 letters to families who already had received final orders of removal by judges in absentia, asking them to self-report to local ICE offices by March to comply with the orders, Morgan said. The upcoming operation is expected to target approximately 2,000 people, according to the senior immigration official.

Once arrests take place, families will likely be moved to ICE family residential detention centers as the agency works with consulates to obtain travel documents, according to the official. Some people will likely appeal their cases, but eventually some will be removed.

The official added that when there are US citizen children in the family, the parents will be fitted with an ankle bracelet and allowed to stay with that child to allow time to get affairs in order while other undocumented family members remain in custody, the official added, nothing that no one wants a situation where a child is left alone.

It’s time for them to go goodbye. They have their final deportation orders, and did not leave. Now they will be made to leave. Announcing this operation is most likely a way to attempt to get the families to gather together, rather than being separated, making it easier to catch them all.

And anything that happens is on the illegals.

Democrat Primary Voters Totally Prefer AOC’s Green New Deal Over Biden’s Hotcoldwetdry Plan Or Something

By William Teach June 22, 2019 – 7:27 am

Would this be the plan that she refuses to demand it get a vote on in the House, that House isn’t even considering, and that Democrats, including AOC, had a hissy fit over when a vote was held on it in the Senate, where almost every single Democrat voted “present”?

Democratic primary voters overwhelmingly prefer Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez’s Green New Deal to Joe Biden’s climate plan

Democratic voters might be more progressive on climate change than conventional wisdom would suggest.

Democratic primary voters much prefer the more ambitious plans to fight climate change proposed by Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez and Washington Gov. Jay Inslee over former Vice President Joe Biden’s relatively less aggressive proposal, according to new INSIDER polling.

A plurality — 42% — of Democratic voters said they prefer a plan that aims to achieve net-zero carbon emissions by 2030 by any means necessary. About 15% of likely Republican primary voters said the same. These preferences most closely resemble Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez’s Green New Deal resolution, which calls for “net-zero greenhouse gas emissions” through a decade-long “national mobilization” that would likely come at huge public expense.

Just 23% of Democrats said they preferred the plan by Inslee, who is running for president, to invest $3 trillion over 10 years to get a net-zero carbon emissions energy grid by 2030 and net-zero carbon emissions altogether by 2045. Inslee’s proposal is the most far-reaching in the 2020 presidential field, and the most amenable option for Democratic primary voters preferring a more ambitious plan than that put forward by Biden.

A significantly smaller portion of Democrats — 14% — said they favored Biden’s plan, which would invest $1.7 trillion over 10 years to get net-zero carbon emissions no later than 2050.

Notice that the article doesn’t really provide much in the way of detail of AOC’s GND, because it is pretty much a massive disaster which would result in enormous jobs losses, stifled economic movement, control of our lives, and so much more, for a potential price tag of $93 trillion. Yes, the other plans are bad, but, it’s like comparing a NY Strip with a Kobi beef Filet.

So, when are these Democratic primary voters going to give up their own use of fossil fuels and make their lives carbon neutral?

Person With Zero Evidence Accuses Trump Of Sexual Assault, Refuses To File Charges

By William Teach June 22, 2019 – 7:10 am

I think she got her timeline wrong: she was supposed to wait till  the Democratic primaries are over, perhaps till September 2020, in order to hurt Trump at the ballot box

Columnist accuses Trump of sexual assault more than two decades ago, an allegation he denies

E. Jean Carroll, a New York-based writer and longtime women’s advice columnist, accused President Trump of sexually assaulting her more than two decades ago in a dressing room of an upscale Manhattan department store, an episode detailed in a book excerpt published Friday in New York magazine.

In an interview with The Washington Post on Friday afternoon, Carroll reiterated the allegations, saying that during a chance encounter with the then-real estate developer at Bergdorf Goodman in late 1995 or early 1996, Trump attacked her in a dressing room. She said he knocked her head against a wall, pulled down her tights and briefly penetrated her before she pushed him off and ran out.

She said she hoped that telling her story “will empower women to come forward and not feel bad. . . . I blamed myself and I was silent and I felt guilty. I beat up myself terrible.”

Carroll, now 75, said she told two close friends about the episode at the time. One of them told The Post on Friday that Carroll described the incident to her shortly after it occurred and that she had unsuccessfully urged Carroll to go to the police.

Trump vigorously denied the accusation, calling it “fake news.” He questioned why there was no video footage of the incident or witnesses in the store.

“I’ve never met this person in my life,” the president said in a statement. “She is trying to sell a new book — that should indicate her motivation. It should be sold in the fiction section.”

So, why wait till now? I make no bones about saying Trump is a sleazy guy with fungible morals (which makes him perfect for politics), but serious allegations require serious proof. Not just to show up because

Carroll, a registered Democrat, said she voted for Hillary Clinton in 2016. She donated $1,000 this cycle to Emily’s List, which supports female candidates who back abortion rights, and $500 to President Barack Obama’s reelection campaign in 2012, according to campaign finance records. On Twitter, she has posted several sharp remarks about Trump and retweets of satirical and critical articles about him.

It’s actually shocking that the Washington Post would publish that paragraph. Carroll can say “it’s not political”, but, it’s political.

Carroll said she didn’t come forward in 2016 because other women did, adding that she “didn’t have the guts.” But now, inspired by the #MeToo movement that began in late 2017, she said, “It’s time. It’s time.”

Sure, Jan, sure.

In other words, this is all about attempting to harm Trump with spurious allegations that cannot be proven or disproven. She supposedly still has the dresscoat from that day, but refuses to have it tested for DNA. Just another garbage false allegation
