Aurora, Colorado Starts Process To Deal With Venezuelan Gang Members

They’re looking to deal with the problem the governor calls imaginary

After video of armed Venezuelan gang shared by local official goes viral, Colorado city takes action

Aurora, Colorado Mayor Mike Coffman announced on Friday that the city is starting the process of clearing the apartment buildings where transnational armed gang Tren de Aragua has taken over.

In a statement posted to Facebook, Coffman shared “the Aurora City Attorney’s Office is preparing court documents to request an emergency court order to clear the apartment buildings where Venezuelan gang activity has been occurring by declaring the properties a ‘Criminal Nuisance.’”

“This will require a municipal judge to issue the order with the goal of getting these properties back under the control of the property owners. In the meantime, the law enforcement task force set up to disrupt and arrest Venezuelan gang members in these buildings will continue its operation. I strongly believe that the best course of action is to shut these building[s] down and make sure that this never happens again,” concluded Coffman.

One has already been picked up. In an email to Fox News Digital, Aurora Police Department confirmed that Tren de Aragua leader “Cookie Monster” is currently in custody in relation to a shooting on July 28.

I wonder if they will be immediately remanded into the custody of the federal government for deporatation, considering they are foreign gang members who would be no way eligible for any sort of asylum. By all the US laws they never should have been let in, however they arrived here.

Fox 31 reports that the men seen in the video that has gone viral are armed members of the Tren de Aragua gang, according to Department of Homeland Security sources.

If DHS knows they are members of a violent gang from a foreign nation why is it not doing anything? They seem to be sitting around twiddling their thumbs while Aurora residents are terrorized. Right now, the legal process could take time, and then they have to marshal resources to actually clear the building of violent gang members armed with rifles.

Woke Pope Yammers On About Earth Being Sick From Hotcoldwetdry

By William Teach August 31, 2024 – 7:00 am

If only he’d spend as much time on Christianity stuff, speaking for the unborn, preaching the Word of Jesus as he does on Woke stuff. And, maybe, not being part of a doomsday cult. He needs to choose which one he wants to be a part of

Pope Francis says Earth is ‘sick’ in new climate change warning

Pope Francis on Friday urged people around the world to better protect the environment, ahead of a 12-day trip to Southeast Asia next week in which the pontiff is expected to urge global action on climate change.

“If we took the planet’s temperature, it will tell us that the Earth has a fever. And it is sick,” the pontiff said in a video message. “We must commit ourselves to … the protection of nature, changing our personal and community habits.”

Francis releases a video message each month to announce his prayer intentions for that month. The intention for September is “for the cry of the Earth”.

The 87-year-old leader of the global Catholic Church leaves on Monday to visit Indonesia, Papua New Guinea, East Timor and Singapore.

Well, that’s weird. Is he planning on taking this long trip by sailing ship? I suspect it would take quite a bit of time to get to those nations. But, you know, it seems that those who preach from Book Of Gore tend to be the worst offenders.

Boom Digity: IDF Kills Hamas Head In Jenin

By William Teach August 31, 2024 – 6:45 am

I’m sure this has made the unhinged, Israel and Jew hating kids on college campuses upset, though, none will actually go to the Palestinian areas, especially the women and rainbow letters folks

IDF kills Wassem Hazem, head of Hamas in Jenin

Wassem Hazem, head of the Hamas terror organization in the West Bank area of Jenin, was killed on Friday in a joint IDF, ISA, and Israel Border Police counterterrorism operation in the northern Samaria area, Israel’s military announced shortly afterward.

Hazem was killed in his vehicle after an exchange of fire during the joint operation. His role in the terror group involved carrying out and directing shooting and bombing attacks.

Hazem continuously advanced terrorist activities in the Judea and Samaria area, the IDF added.

Following the elimination of Hazem, two additional terrorists, Maysara Masharqa and Arafat Amer, who were in the vehicle with him, attempted to flee the scene. However, shortly afterward, they were also killed by an IDF aircraft.

Meanwhile, the wackjobs are at it again

Berlin Holocaust memorial defaced: ‘Jews are committing genocide’

A Berlin Holocaust memorial honoring non-Jews who protested against the persecution of their Jewish family members was vandalized with anti-Israel graffiti on Wednesday, according to the Berlin Police and European Jewish Congress.

“Jews are committing genocide,” was scrawled across the Rosenstrasse protest memorial according to EJC.

A Palestinian flag and the slogan “free Palestine” was spraypainted on the ground in front of the sculptures.

These people are assholes.

Bummer: US Leading On Spending For Unproven Pie In The Sky Climate (scam) “Solutions”

By William Teach August 30, 2024 – 3:00 pm

We’re pretty much spending too much on the rest of the BS “solutions”, as well

US leads wealthy countries spending billions of public money on unproven ‘climate solutions’

A handful of wealthy polluting countries led by the US are spending billions of dollars of public money on unproven climate solutions technologies that risk further delaying the transition away from fossil fuels, new analysis suggests.

Sigh. CO2 is not a pollutant

These governments have handed out almost $30bn in subsidies for carbon capture and fossil hydrogen over the past 40 years, with hundreds of billions potentially up for grabs through new incentives, according to a new report by Oil Change International (OCI), a non-profit tracking the cost of fossil fuels.

To date, the European Union (EU) plus just four countries – the US, Norway, Canada and the Netherlands – account for 95% of the public handouts on CCS and hydrogen.

The US has spent the most taxpayer money, some $12bn in direct subsidies, according to OCI, with fossil fuel giants like Exxon hoping to secure billions more in future years.

In fairness, the US has handed out way more than that on “loans” for solar panel companies that went out of business.

But carbon capture and storage (CCS) projects consistently fail, overspend or underperform, according to previous studies. CCS – and blue hydrogen projects – rely on fossil fuels and can lead to a myriad of environmental harms including a rise in greenhouse gases and air pollution.

They’re both BS, but, politicians handing out the taxpayer money receive lots of donations from the business owners.

“The United States and other governments have little to show for these massive investments in carbon capture – none of the demonstration projects have lived up to their initial hype,” said Robert Howarth, professor of ecology and environmental biology at Cornell University. “It is instructive that industry itself invests very little in carbon capture. This whole enterprise is dependent on government handouts.”

Weird, because it’s the same with solar and wind.

“Governments are pouring billions of taxpayer dollars into technologies that have consistently failed to deliver on their promises … allowing fossil fuel companies to continue business,” said Lorne Stockman, research director at OCI.

And that is the climate cultist’s big problem: they want fossil fuels companies gone, not realizing that they will no longer be able to take fossil fueled buses, trains, planes, or boats. No cruises, no popping off to an island for a vacation, no driving down to the store. Oh, and not to mention all the roughly 700 products made with petroleum.

Colorado Governor Dismisses Reality Of Venezuelan Gang Taking Over Town

By William Teach August 30, 2024 – 10:30 am

Two days ago I mentioned how towns around Sanctuary City Denver are having a lot of issues with illegal aliens, particularly with the Venezuelan gang members, especially Aurora, which has seen the notorious gang take apartment complexes, and they do not have the manpower to do anything about it. How does the governor respond?

Colorado Gov. Jared Polis dismisses migrant gang takeover of apartments as ‘imagination’ — despite video, mayor confirming truth

Americans before illegalsColorado Gov. Jared Polis dismissed anger over Venezuelan gang Tren de Aragua taking over apartment buildings in the Denver suburb of Aurora, calling it “imagination” — despite video footage, police reports and the city’s mayor confirming it’s happening.

Polis’ press office offered the snarky statement Wednesday night in response to Aurora City Councilwoman Danielle Jurinsky — who told The Post the gang’s takeovers are tied to his policies.

“The Governor has already let the Mayor know that the State is ready to support the local police department with assistance from state troopers and the Colorado Bureau of Investigation if needed,” Shelby Wieman, a spokesperson for the Dem governor, told The Post.

“But, according to police intelligence this purported invasion is largely a feature of Danielle Jurinsky’s imagination.”

Too bad Aurora doesn’t have the ability to round them up and bus them to the governor’s home. Let Polis experience the diversity

On Wednesday night, Fox Denver aired surveillance video, which showed an armed gang of men — later confirmed by cops as suspected members of Tren de Aragua — strolling through an apartment complex in Aurora that residents said is overrun by the gang.

Three of the men could be seen carrying handguns, while another held a rifle as they entered the troubled apartment complex, breaking into a unit shortly before a shootout took place at the complex that left one person severely injured.

Further, Aurora Mayor Mike Coffman, told Fox News on Thursday that “there are several buildings” that have “fallen to these Venezuelan gangs” in his city.

Yet, the state is doing nothing, despite having the resources available, which would most likely necessitate the deployment of the National Guard. It is against the law for foreigners to carry firearms, for a start. Where did they get them? There’s zero chance they obtained them legally.

The Post asked Polis’ office if he intends to backtrack its statement given the piles of evidence of Tren de Aragua’s takeover, to which Wieman said the governor “really hopes that the city council members in charge stop trashing their own city when they are supposed to keep it safe.

I’d say that Aurora should blow off the sanctuary law of Colorado and call ICE, but, would the Biden-Harris admin actually do anything? This is what you will get with a continuation of the Biden-Harris policies if she wins in November. And, perhaps some Democrat voters in Aurora and the surrounding towns are learning that there are consequences for voting Democrat, since these illegal gang members are also shoplifting around town and scaring the citizens. Those Americans in the apartment complexes are being terrorized.

Kamala Drops Word Salad On ‘Climate Change’

By William Teach August 30, 2024 – 7:00 am

Too bad Dana Bash didn’t ask her why she’s taking lots of fossil fueled travel instead of trains and EVs

Huh what?

(CNN) “How should voters look at some of the changes that you’ve made?” Bash asked Harris. “Is it because you have more experience now and you’ve learned more about the information? Is it because you were running for president in a Democratic primary? And should they feel comfortable and confident that what you’re saying now is going to be your policy moving forward?”

Harris said despite the shifts in position, her values had not changed.

“I think the most important and most significant aspect of my policy perspective and decisions is my values have not changed,” she said. “You mentioned the Green New Deal. I have always believed – and I have worked on it – that the climate crisis is real, that it is an urgent matter to which we should apply metrics that include holding ourselves to deadlines around time.”

But, not holding herself to making her own carbon footprint neutral. It’s just word salad.

“My values have not changed. So that is the reality of it. And four years of being vice president, I’ll tell you, one of the aspects, to your point, is traveling the country extensively,” she said, pointing to her 17 visits to Georgia since becoming vice president. “I believe it is important to build consensus, and it is important to find a common place of understanding of where we can actually solve problems.”

Her, Biden, and their Democrat Comrades want to reduce your carbon footprint, not their own.

Surgeon General Super Excited To Make Things Worse For Stressed Parents

By William Teach August 30, 2024 – 6:45 am

What could parents be stressed about? Kids? School? Or, maybe the poor economy and kids’ declined learning from the COVID lock-downs

Parents can’t function they’re so stressed, surgeon general warns

American parents need a bailout.

Suffering from stress, money woes and loneliness more than their childless peers, nearly half of parents can barely function, according to a new report from Surgeon General Vivek Murthy.

I thought the economy was great. Didn’t Kamala say that Bidenomics during the Biden-Harris administration was working?

Murthy says government aid, in the form of child tax credits, universal preschool, early childhood education programs, paid family and medical leave, paid sick time and investments in social infrastructure, can help. That’s in line with Democratic presidential candidate Kamala Harris’ campaign pitch, but GOP contender Donald Trump is also considering how to get more cash in parents’ pockets — an issue his running mate JD Vance has championed.

“The stress and the loneliness that parents are dealing with at a disproportionate level has real implications,” Murthy told POLITICO. “We’ve got to provide more financial support.”

Chronic and excessive stress caused in part by the bills they have to pay exacerbates parents’ mental health conditions, including depression and anxiety, and can hurt children’s development.

Four in 10 parents say they’re so stressed they can’t function most days, according to Murthy’s report, with two-thirds citing financial hardship.

Where does the money come from? And what will all this addition federal spending do for inflation? Why is it the government’s job to fund all the parents? Perhaps the government should get out of the way and reverse course so that conditions will be ripe for people to be able to afford to have the kids. Perhaps government should reduce spending, and focus on their core duties and responsibilities.

South Korean Court Orders Nation To Take Stronger Climate (scam) Action

By William Teach August 29, 2024 – 3:00 pm

Hey, if you cannot convince Other People to live the climate cult life (even though you, as a Warmist, refuse to voluntarily do so), to get legislation passed, then get the courts to do so

Court Orders South Korea to Take Stronger Action on Climate Change

A top South Korean court on Thursday ruled the nation’s measures for fighting climate change insufficient for protecting the rights of citizens, and ordered the government to set firm carbon-reduction targets for 2031 and beyond. It is the first climate litigation ruling of its kind in Asia.

Since 2020, the Constitutional Court has been reviewing a series of complaints filed by more than 250 plaintiffs — one-third of them children or teenagers at the time of the filing — who said that the government’s greenhouse gas reduction targets and its implementation plans were partly unconstitutional and too weak to safeguard the rights of citizens, particularly those of future generations.

South Korea’s Carbon Neutral Act, first enacted in 2010, required the country to set a goal of cutting carbon emissions by at least 35 percent by 2030 compared with 2018 levels. Under the law, the government has set a goal of a 40 percent reduction. The plaintiffs argued that this was not enough to manage the impact of climate change.

In its decision on Thursday, the Constitutional Court did not find fault with the 2030 goal. But it declared that because the law failed to specify carbon-emission reduction targets for the years between 2031 and 2050 — when the country said it would achieve carbon neutrality — the constitutional rights of future generations had been violated.

Too bad the court didn’t rule that all these youts would be required to practice what they preach: no fossil fueled travel, their use of the Internet would be limited to 1GB a month because it uses huge amounts of energy, no AC or heat, and they cannot eat meat. I wonder how many of nine judges that sit on the Constitutional Court own fossil fueled vehicles and take fossil fueled flights.

The court gave the National Assembly until the end of February 2025 to revise the law.

“Future generations will be more exposed to the impact of climate change, but their participation in today’s democratic political process is limited,” the court said. “So the legislators have the duty and responsibility to make concrete laws for mid- and long-term greenhouse gas reduction plans.”

That’s weird: the Court telling the legislative branch to change the law. But, hey, maybe that’s South Korea’s way.

The plaintiffs and their lawyers hailed the verdict as “historic.”

“This ruling marks the first victory in climate litigation in Asia,” they said in a news release. “The ruling could serve as a critical turning point, inspiring further legal actions across Asia to challenge insufficient climate policies.”

I wonder if the kiddies realize that this will negatively affect their lives? Well, they asked for it, so, no complaining.
