UK Guardian Makes Damning Admission In Piece On Trump DOJ Discussing Cancelling Citizenship

By William Teach July 3, 2025 – 10:30 am

UK Guardian writer Jose Oliveres was so upset over the prospect of naturalized citizens being stripped of that status that he made an interesting admission

Trump seizes on ‘moral character’ loophole as way to revoke citizenship

A justice department memo directing the department’s civil division to target the denaturalization of US citizens around the country has opened up an new avenue for Donald Trump’s mass deportation agenda, experts say.

In the US, when a person is denaturalized, they return to the status they held before becoming a citizen. If someone was previously a permanent resident, for example, they will be classified as such again, which can open the door to deportation efforts.

The memo, published on 11 June, instructed the justice department’s civil division to “prioritize and maximally pursue denaturalization proceedings in all cases permitted by law and supported by the evidence”. Immigration matters are civil matters, meaning that immigrants – whether they are naturalized citizens or not – do not have the right to an attorney in such cases.

Whoa, wait a minute, civil matters? No attorney necessary? So all that apoplexy about illegals getting due process was overblown? That they do not require legal representation, because crossing the border is, as they all say, a civil matter, so they can appear in court without a lawyer and be handed a judgement of a small fine and deportation? Huh. Cool!

Muzaffar Chishti from the Migration Policy Institute, a non-partisan thinktank, explained that much of immigration law was based on discretion by government officials. To revoke a person’s citizenship, US officials must demonstrate that they are not of “good moral character” – a subjective and broad term with little defined parameters.

Now, the recent memo lists a broad range of categories of people who should be stripped of their naturalized citizenship status, providing further guidance as to who is not of good “moral character”. This included “those with a nexus to terrorism” and espionage, war criminals and those who were found to have lied in their naturalization process. Officials still need to prove their case, Chisthi explained.

As for stripping citizenship, the laws are real, but, rarely used. Reportedly, only 107 have been stripped. There are no published numbers of those who denaturalized themselves and left, which would allow them to return to the U.S., at least for visits. The Biden admin even published info on this back in 2024.

Would the Trump admin actually do this? He might, after the shitstorm Democrats put him through after Biden took office in January 2021. Trump was freed up to just go pedal to the metal. And there are plenty to strip and deport. How about Ilhan Omar and all the other hardcore Islamist Somalis up in Little Somalia, ie, Minneapolis, who were brought in by the government in a large group and given citizenship. They didn’t earn it. There are many more who are in the same boat, being Islamic extremists and/or America haters. I doubt that people who earned US citizenship, going through the full process, will be part of this.

For Jorge Loweree, director of policy for the American Immigration Council, a new category in the memo stood out to him: individuals accused of being gang and cartel members.

Loweree is concerned “because of the way that the administration has treated people that it deems to be gang members”, he said. “ It wasn’t that long ago that the administration flew hundreds of people from the US to a prison in El Salvador on, in most instances, flimsy evidence.”

What if they go through the process, which would necessitate going in front of a federal judge, and it’s proven they are gang members? Does AIC really want to protect gang members? Really, most 1st World countries have the same thing available to them, and use it.

Did You Know That 90% Of Life Died Off 250 Million Years Ago?

By William Teach July 3, 2025 – 7:00 am

That’s a heck of a thing, eh? This could be interesting

The ‘Great Dying’ wiped out 90% of life, then came 5 million years of lethal heat. New fossils explain why

Around 252 million years ago, life on Earth suffered its most catastrophic blow to date: a mass extinction event known as the “Great Dying” that wiped out around 90% of life.

What followed has long puzzled scientists. The planet became lethally hot and remained so for 5 million years.

A team of international researchers say they have now figured out why using a vast trove of fossils — and it all revolves around tropical forests.

Their findings, published Wednesday in the journal Nature Communications, may help solve a mystery, but they also spell out a dire warning for the future as humans continue to heat up the planet by burning fossil fuels.

Good grief. This could be a very interesting story on new scientific discoveries, but, no, CNN had to go climate cult by the 4th paragraph.

Michael Benton, a professor of paleontology at the University of Bristol, who was not involved in the study, said the research shows “the absence of forests really impacts the regular oxygen-carbon cycles and suppresses carbon burial and so high levels of CO2 remain in the atmosphere over prolonged periods,” he told CNN.

It highlights “a threshold effect,” he added, where the loss of forests becomes “irreversible on ecological time scales.” Global politics currently revolve around the idea that if carbon dioxide levels can be controlled, damage can be reversed. “But at the threshold, it then becomes hard for life to recover,” Benton said.

This is a key takeaway from the study, Mills said. It shows what might happen if rapid global warming causes the planet’s rainforests to collapse in the future — a tipping point scientists are very concerned about.

It just goes to show that the climate cult has taken over legitimate science.

Ron Desantis: Hey, If You Don’t Want To Be In Alligator Alcatraz, Self Deport

By William Teach July 3, 2025 – 6:45 am

This is something that myself and others have been saying

Ron DeSantis: Illegal Aliens Have Opportunity to Self-Deport Before Entering Alligator Alcatraz

Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis explained on Tuesday that illegal aliens who are going through intake at “Alligator Alcatraz” — a detention facility to house, process, and deport illegal aliens — have the option to voluntarily self-deport before entering the front door.

DeSantis said on Tuesday that when they do they intake of illegal immigrants, they explain the option of voluntarily departing.

“So right when you do the intake, they have the information about voluntary departure. They have the ability, obviously, you guys are funding that, because it’s a lot cheaper to do it that way,” DeSantis said.

“So, even if they get brought to the front doorstep here, they still have an opportunity to just go back voluntarily,” he explained.

Department of Homeland Security Secretary Kristi Noem also drove this point home while touring the facility on Tuesday.

“If they self-deport and go home, they can come back legally. We will let them come back,” she told reporters as President Donald Trump added, “And there is a lot of self-deportation.”

It really is that easy. Leave. Pick a destination and go.

Meanwhile

U.S. Attorney General Pam Bondi: “A rogue district court judge is already trying to circumvent the Supreme Court’s recent ruling against nationwide injunctions.

The American people see right through this. Our attorneys [at the DOJ] will fight this unconstitutional power grab as [President Trump] continues to secure our border.”

Ignore the ruling!

Based on the Supreme Court ruling, the Trump admin can, because Moss is a federal judge for D.C. The only way he can rule is for those entering the US in his district. He has no authority over the border.

EU Elites Look To Make Lots Of Money Off Carbon Credit

By William Teach July 2, 2025 – 3:00 pm

If Reuters, and all the other Credentialed Media outlets running this, had any journalistic integrity they’d ask who is set to profit from this

EU includes international CO2 credits in climate goal for first time

The European Commission on Wednesday proposed an EU climate target for 2040 that for the first time will allow countries to use carbon credits from developing nations to meet a limited share of their emissions goal.

The European Union executive proposed a legally-binding target to cut net greenhouse gas emissions by 90% by 2040, from 1990 levels – aiming to keep the EU on course for its core climate aim to reach net zero emissions by 2050.

But following pushback from governments including France, Germany, Italy, Poland and the Czech Republic, the Commission also proposed flexibilities that would soften the 90% emissions target for European industries.

The EU has among the world’s most ambitious climate targets. So far, its emissions targets have been based entirely on domestic emissions cuts.

Reflecting Germany’s public stance, up to 3 percentage points of the 2040 target can be covered by carbon credits bought from other countries through a U.N.-backed market, reducing the effort required by domestic industries.

Now, this cash scheme would supposedly be phased in in 2036, but, would anyone be surprised if that date gets moved to a lot closer than that within the next year, and that the 3 percentage points gets significantly raised? Because someone is going to profit off the carbon credits, and this will be a huge money maker as the money is shifted around and siphoned.

Climate change has made Europe the world’s fastest-warming continent and a severe heatwave this week caused wildfires and disruption across the continent, but Europe’s ambitious policies to combat temperature rise have stoked tensions within the 27-member bloc.

Wait, I thought Asia was the fastest? Or, was that Antarctica? Africa? Or is it the Arctic, or the east coast of North America?

LOL: Now The Media Conveniently Finds Native Tribe To Complain About Alligator Alcatraz

By William Teach July 2, 2025 – 10:30 am

By the way, you can purchase merchandise at the Florida GOP website

Florida tribe fights new ‘Alligator Alcatraz’ migrant facility near Everglades homes

A Florida Native American leader spoke out against a new migrant detention facility in the Florida Everglades, nicknamed “Alligator Alcatraz,” raising environmental and safety concerns for local tribal communities.

President Trump, visiting the site Tuesday, said the facility will hold “some of the most menacing migrants, some of the most vicious people on the planet.”

The detention center, built on a remote airstrip in the Everglades, can hold up to 5,000 migrants in tents and trailers.

Talbert Cypress, chairman of the Miccosukee Business Council, said some tribal villages are located within 900 feet of the facility’s entrance.

“This proposed facility is surrounded on all sides by the Big Cypress National Preserve, and the tribe has been at home in the Big Cypress for centuries,” Cypress told ABC News.

Cypress pointed to the lack of environmental studies on what creating the detention center could mean for the local ecosystem.

What it could mean? Nothing. They aren’t doing anything but holding illegals, all of whom could avoid being there by self-deporting. We don’t care where they go, just leave. Of course, the Usual Suspects are now calling it Alligator Auschwitz, which is funny, because most of these same people are Jew haters.

The media is melting down over them being cages

Under Obama and Biden the illegals, including the children, slept on the floor. Here they have cots.

Unlawful crossings along southern border reach new historic low

The number of migrants caught crossing the southern border illegally set a new historic monthly low in June, continuing an extraordinary lull in illegal immigration the Trump administration has attributed to its aggressive deportation efforts, preliminary government data obtained by CBS News shows.

Last month, Border Patrol agents along the U.S.-Mexico border recorded just over 6,000 apprehensions of migrants who entered the country without authorization, the lowest monthly tally ever reported by the agency, according to the preliminary Customs and Border Protection data. The previous monthly low reported by Border Patrol was in March, when the agency recorded around 7,200 migrant apprehensions.

“Lull”? “Extraordinary”? It’s all on the Trump admin’s policies, all of which disincentivize people from coming to the U.S. illegally.

The numbers stand in stark contrast to the record levels of apprehensions made by Border Patrol under the Biden administration, which faced a humanitarian, political and operational crisis of unprecedented proportions at the southern border until it implemented restrictive asylum measures last year.

During many months of former President Joe Biden’s tenure, Border Patrol recorded more than 6,000 apprehensions each day. At their peak in late 2023, daily illegal crossings at the southern border topped 10,000 on some days.

Biden and his people and all the liberal groups invited them to come, so, they did. Suck it, liberals. And keep paying the massive amount of money in your sanctuary jurisdictions to pay for the ones that are here.

So Sad: Trump Admin Shuts Down Major Government Climate (scam) Website

By William Teach July 2, 2025 – 7:15 am

Cue the crying, gnashing of teeth, screaming at the sky

Trump administration shutters major federal climate website

A major federal climate website has been shut down by the Trump administration, multiple agencies have confirmed with ABC News.

The website of the U.S. Global Change Research Program, which hosts numerous climate change reports and resources, including the comprehensive and often cited National Climate Assessments, is no longer operational, according to a NASA spokesperson.

The U.S. Global Change Research Program’s website was taken offline, along with all five editions of the National Climate Assessment and a wide range of information detailing how human-amplified climate change is impacting the United States.

The great thing here is that by doing this Trump is reducing the carbon footprint of NASA. Websites put out carbon pollution, and, you know, every bit of reduction helps

The U.S. Global Change Research Program (USGCRP), comprising 15 federal member agencies, was managed by the White House through the White House Office of Science and Technology Policy.

NASA will now take over, Victoria LaCivita, communications director at the White House Office of Science and Technology Policy, told ABC News.

“All preexisting reports will be hosted on the NASA website, ensuring compliance with statutorily required reporting,” LaCivita said, referring ABC News to NASA for more information.

A NASA spokesperson wrote in response to an ABC News inquiry, “The USCGRP website is no longer active. All preexisting reports will be hosted on the NASA website, ensuring continuity of reporting.”

And the wacko cultists will not have free reign to include their brand of cult on the website nor in the potentialNational Climate Assessment. Which was due in April, but, that sure didn’t happen.

Although much of this information may end up on various other federal agency websites, many climate scientists are voicing their concern and disappointment, stating that these actions are making it more challenging to find climate change information.

They can go pound cult sand, and go peddle their cult in the private sector.

Here We Go Again: Wacky Federal Judge Blocks Early Termination Of TPS For Haitians

By William Teach July 2, 2025 – 7:00 am

Seriously, why bother fighting Trump on this: TPS for those from the failed state (can Haiti actually be considered a state at this point?) of Haiti ends September 2nd. They’re gone at that point

Judge blocks Trump’s early termination of temporary protections for Haitian immigrants

A federal judge in New York has blocked the Trump administration’s attempt to strip immigration protections from Haitians fleeing instability in their country.

The ruling Friday from U.S. District Judge Brian Cogan preserves, for now, the Biden administration’s 2024 extension of the protections, known as “temporary protected status,” for up to 500,000 Haitians living in the United States.

Cogan’s 23-page decision is the latest legal development in the administration’s efforts to roll back TPS designations and other immigration programs that allow immigrants from countries facing humanitarian crises to live and work here legally. In a separate case, the Supreme Court in May lifted a lower-court ruling and allowed the administration to revoke a Biden-era TPS designation for about 350,000 Venezuelans.

Cogan’s decision came just four days after Secretary of Homeland Security Kristi Noem announced that the TPS designation for Haitians would expire effective on Sept. 2. Under the Biden administration’s extension, the designation was scheduled to expire on Feb. 3, 2026.

The initial 18 month designation was scheduled to end September 2nd. Biden, well, his people who made all the decisions, decided to throw a wrench into the Trump admin by extending it. And, here we go again with a federal judge deciding to make a nationwide decision. He can rule in his little fiefdom, which is from Brooklyn to the end of Long Island. And, let’s be clear, Cogan was appointed by Bush 43, so, probably a Trump hater. Let’s also not forget Bush was a big supporter of a pathway to citizenship, ie, amnesty.

The judge noted that Haitian TPS recipients have enrolled in schools, taken jobs and began medical treatment in reliance on the U.S. government’s previous representations about the duration of the protections.

So what? It’s called TPS, which means it ends. They should have been ready. And how many of them can speak English? How many act like they’re still in 4th World Haiti? How many are on the public dole, taking money from Americans who need it? Regardless, the order cannot apply beyond the Eastern District of NY. And, there will soon be a higher court ruling telling Cogan to take a seat, the TPS ends September 2nd.

Moonbats: SCOTUS Decision On Judges Not Being All Powerful Is Like The Dred Scott Decision

By William Teach July 1, 2025 – 3:44 pm

This is so stupid it’s possible that Ketanji Brown Jackson and her Gen Z interns actually wrote it

Opinion – The Supreme Court’s injunctions decision returns America to the constitutional horrors of Dred Scott

In ordinary times, someone could read the Supreme Court’s decision on the legality of so-called “universal injunctions” as just the latest example of an old dispute: the proper way to interpret the Constitution and the jurisdiction of federal courts. Justice Amy Coney Barrett’s majority opinion saying the federal district courts do not have the authority to issue such injunctions is a classic in the genre of “originalism.”

In contrast, the dissenting opinions by Justices Sonia Sotomayor and Ketanji Brown Jackson read the law through the lens not just of its origins but with an eye to how an interpretation would affect the world beyond the courtroom. They understand that these are not ordinary times and do not want to disable the judiciary from responding when fundamental rights are at stake, in the face of an ongoing assault on the rule of law itself.

To put it simply, with its decision in Trump v. Casa, the court has become an accomplice in President Trump’s ongoing assault on our constitutional republic. The decision has effectively removed the federal courts as a check on the Trump administration.

BTW, this decision could help future Democrats from being the recipients of nationwide injunctions. But, here we go

But it also does grave damage to the court itself — Trump v. Casa now takes its place among the high court’s most infamous rulings. As Stephen Lubet says, it returns us to the world of its discredited Dred Scott decision, which found that the rights of Black people depended on where they lived. Just like Blacks in the antebellum world who had one status in free states and another in slave states, immigrants and others may now find themselves in a legal nether land.

To thoroughly appreciate the impact of Trump v. Casa, it is important to remember that “universal injunctions” allow courts to grant immediate relief that benefits not only the party who requests them but also anyone harmed by an action of the government. Individuals or organizations can go to court seeking such orders while they pursue further legal action.

Except, that is not the way the U.S. Constitution is set up. What if, say, a Republican federal judge in Alabama decided to rule against abortion on demand and instituted a federal injunction, saying that abortion is now illegal in the entire U.S. until such time as a higher court rules differently? Or that every citizen 18 and up now has the right to concealed carry? Or that environmental reviews on projects are no longer necessary? You’d be fine with that, right, Democrats?

As Sotomayor argues, the majority now holds that “No matter how illegal a law or policy, courts can never simply tell the executive to stop enforcing it against anyone.” Sotomayor condemns her colleagues’ attachment to a “rigid historical test” that allows “a grave and unsupported diminution of the judicial power of equity,” and chastises the majority for its “complicity” in the president’s “‘mockery’ of our constitution.”

We’re either a nation of Law, based on the Constitution, or a nation of Men, based on feelings. Also, this is why the federal government shouldn’t have so much damned power over states and citizens, something the Constitution never called for and never wanted.

Her opinion conjured the jurisprudence of the Dred Scott era when it warned that the court’s new decision creates a “two-tiered scheme” in which someone’s citizenship status depends on whether they live in a state where an injunction has been issued or a state where no court ruling has been made. Jackson echoed Sotomayor in her worry that the court is acquiescing in the administration’s desire “to operate in two different zones moving forward: one in which it is required to follow the law (because a particular plaintiff has secured a personal injunction prohibiting its unlawful conduct) and another in which you can choose to violate the law with respect to certain people (those who have yet to sue).”

But, citizenship is not determined by federal judges, it is determined by the laws as passed by the duly elected Congress. Birthright citizenship is not settled: if you are a member of a foreign diplomatic group, any child you have born in the US will not be a US citizen. That was determined by US law, pretty much following the way most Western nations viewed it prior to the Constitution and the 14th Amendment, the latter of which was never meant to apply to foreign citizens visiting the US who are subject to the jurisdiction of being citizens of another country.

Regardless, there is no authority given to these judges to implement nationwide injunctions because they do not like a president’s policies, and, you know Democrats are losing badly when they have to trot out comparing it to Dred Scott, a case that ended in 1857, when times were vastly different. Doesn’t mean it was a good decision, just a different time. And 99% of US citizens have no idea about the details, just that It Was Bad.
