Trump Declares November 1st “National Day of Remembrance for Americans Killed by Illegal Aliens”

By William Teach November 1, 2020 – 7:36 am

Think Joe Biden will want to keep this around if he wins, or will he want people to forget that his Party is the biggest supporter of illegal aliens, and wants them to be given free, easy citizenship?

Trump declares 1 November to be ‘national day of remembrance for those killed by illegal aliens’

Donald Trump has declared that 1 November will be marked nationwide as a “National Day of Remembrance for Americans Killed by Illegal Aliens”.

With three days left until the election, the presidential proclamation was designed to hammer home his message of law and order, and position himself as the candidate best placed to protect the United States.

“On this National Day of Remembrance, we pause to honor the memory of every American life so egregiously taken from us by criminal illegal aliens,” the document, released by the White House late on Friday, read.

“As sons and daughters, mothers and fathers, brothers and sisters, and as American citizens, these precious lives are an irreplaceable piece of our national community. We solemnly stand with their families — our Angel Families — who have endured what no American family should ever have to suffer.

“Today, we recommit to ensuring that those responsible for these tragedies face justice, while taking every action to prevent these horrific acts from occurring in our Nation.”

Of course, you won’t find this around most of the Credentialed Media. At best it will be a tiny back page blurb.

According to statistics from Immigration and Customs Enforcement  published in ICE’s Enforcement and Removal Operations Report, in the Fiscal Year 2019 there were 1,923 total offenses for homicide, resulting in 374 criminal charges and 1,549 criminal convictions.

In the same year there were 16,425 murders in the United States, according to FBI data.

That’s 1,923 who should be alive if illegals were stopped. Trump should have named it for those who have been harmed by illegal aliens, because then you add in the rape, assault, attempted murder, and other crimes from people who should not be here. Just ask Kamala

Kamala Harris Gave Plea Deal to Illegal Alien Months Before He Killed Drew Rosenberg

On November 16, 2010, second-year law student Drew Rosenberg was killed in San Francisco by Roberto Galo, an illegal alien from Honduras who had been granted Temporary Protected Status (TPS) to stay in the United States.

Galo hit Drew, who was riding his bike, and ran him over twice before attempting to flee the scene of the crash. Galo stopped his car on Drew’s abdomen, prompting a group of bystanders to help lift the car off of him.

A year before Drew’s death, then-San Francisco Mayor Gavin Newsom (D) implemented a policy that allowed unlicensed drivers about 20 minutes to find a licensed driver to drive their car so that it would not be impounded by the city.

The policy ensured illegal aliens, driving without licenses, could be pulled over, cited, and fined without having to deal with having their car impounded. As District Attorney, Harris seemed to follow the Newsom policy, Rosenberg said.

Months before Drew was killed, in June 2010, Galo was pulled over by San Francisco police officers for driving the wrong way down a one-way street. Galo was arrested and charged with driving without a license and driving without insurance.

Harris’s office offered Galo a plea deal that would allow him to escape the more serious charges of driving without a license and driving without insurance by pleading guilty to driving the wrong way. Rosenberg said Galo had taken a driver’s test on three occasions and failed each time.

And they new the person was unlawfully in the United States, a federal crime, for which the first offense was deportation. Illegal immigration may not have been an issue during this campaign season (heck, policy overall has barely been part of this campaign season), but, give Democrats the White House and Senate and you will get amnesty for all illegals, which they won’t have to earn. And this will entice even more to come illegally, and law enforcement, particularly ICE, will be told to stand down.

Who’s Up For A Radical Proposal To Stop An Imaginary Issue?

By William Teach October 31, 2020 – 3:30 pm

I mean, I know what my recommendation is in order to stop the climate crisis (scam). I’ve mentioned it enough over the past 15 years

As Climate Disasters Pile Up, a Radical Proposal Gains Traction

As the effects of climate change become more devastating, prominent research institutions and government agencies are focusing new money and attention on an idea once dismissed as science fiction: artificially cooling the planet, in the hopes of buying humanity more time to cut greenhouse gas emissions.

That strategy, called solar climate intervention or solar geoengineering, entails reflecting more of the sun’s energy back into space — abruptly reducing global temperatures in a way that mimics the effects of ash clouds spewed by volcanic eruptions. The idea has been derided as a dangerous and illusory fix, one that would encourage people to keep burning fossil fuels while exposing the planet to unexpected and potentially menacing side effects.

But as global warming continues, producing more destructive hurricanes, wildfires, floods and other disasters, some researchers and policy experts say that concerns about geoengineering should be outweighed by the imperative to better understand it, in case the consequences of climate change become so dire that the world can’t wait for better solutions.

“We’re facing an existential threat, and we need to look at all the options,” said Michael Gerrard, director of the Sabin Center for Climate Change Law at the Columbia Law School and editor of a book on the technology and its legal implications. “I liken geoengineering to chemotherapy for the planet: If all else is failing, you try it.”

What could possibly go wrong? No worries, they’ll soon figure our a way to tax people for this while restricting their freedom, liberty, and choice.

Or, hear me out, climate cultists could

No fossil fueled flights. Practice what you preach. Live like it’s 1399.

A Vote For Biden Is A Vote To Undo Deregulation

By William Teach October 31, 2020 – 10:30 am

How did people become brainwashed to the point that they are asking for more and more Centralized Big Government? Vox unintentionally tells you exactly what a Biden presidency will mean

If Biden wins, here’s how he could undo Trump’s deregulation agenda
Biden could use Trump’s playbook to reverse his regulatory moves on pollution, worker safety, health care, and more.

Cutting workplace safety inspections. Allowing subpar health insurance plans to be sold to Americans. Permitting tractor-trailer drivers to blow past previous driver-fatigue limits. Waging war on birth control.

Obviously, the birth control one is about the so-called Contraceptive Mandate, which doesn’t actually appear in the Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act, being manufactured out of thin air by HHS. What the Trump Admin did was make it so health plans didn’t have to offer contraceptive coverage if they chose not to. People can go and buy their own condoms and birth control pills. They aren’t that expensive. My insurance doesn’t cover my allergy pills, nor the epipens. I can’t avoid dust mites, grass pollen, or oak pollen. I do my damndest to avoid MSG and certain shellfish. But, some, like dust mites, no way to avoid. Unlike having unprotected, irresponsible sex with a partner they don’t want to have a baby with, it’s not a choice. They just want Other People to pay for their birth control.

As for subpar plans: what was the point of good Obamacare plans when the deductibles were too expensive to afford and doctors refused to take the plans?

These deregulatory actions and others taken by President Donald Trump’s administration have adversely impacted the health and safety of Americans, according to System Failure, an investigative series produced by the Center for Public Integrity and Vox.

But Trump’s actions may not stick. If former Vice President Joe Biden wins the November 3 election, he’ll have a few tools at his disposal to undo some of Trump’s regulatory maneuvers.

And if Democrats take control of both houses of Congress, they’ll be able to quickly wipe out regulations pushed through in the last 60 legislative days of Trump’s term, thanks to the Congressional Review Act, part of the Contract With America that Newt Gingrich and House Republicans campaigned on in 1994. (snip)

The Trump administration, more than any other in the US history, aggressively pursued the rollback of federal regulations, particularly the ones put in place by President Barack Obama — including a rule meant to prevent people with mental health issues from buying guns and a regulation aimed at keeping coal companies from dumping mining waste into streams.

Republicans used the Congressional Review Act to undo at least 14 of the Obama administration’s rules. Before Trump took office, the law had only been used once.

Biden has already said that if he wins, he plans to roll back more than 100 Trump administration public health and environmental regulations, including his reversal of protections for transgender people. We asked Davis Noll to explain how Biden will execute these rollbacks if he takes the election. This interview has been edited for brevity and clarity.

So, basically, while Trump was reducing the government burden on citizen’s lives from elected officials and unaccountable bureaucrats, Biden wants to put them back, add more, and have Los Federales control your life and do things you do not want. Do you want mentally unstable boys who think they’re girls in the locker rooms, showers, and bathrooms with your daughter? Then vote Biden. If you want more federal government, vote Biden.

42% Of Americans Want To Transition Away From Fossil Fuels

By William Teach October 31, 2020 – 7:02 am

The questions not asked in the poll: have you transitioned away from using fossil fuels yourself, and, if not, why? The responses could be

  • Yes – 1%
  • No, because it is too hard and would screw with my life and this should apply to Other People – 57%
  • No, see, Trump is a Orange Man Bad and screeeeeeeeeeeee! – 42%

Anyhow

2020 Polls: Almost half of Americans want to transition from fossil fuels as majority say time is running out to save planet

The majority of people think that time is running out to tackle the climate crisis, according to a sweeping poll shared exclusively with The Independent.

In the survey of 5,500 people across the US last month, 54 per cent either strongly or partially agreed that the window was rapidly close on our ability to prevent more devastating consequences as a result of global heating.

Climate change is considered by Americans the second most important issue facing the world, topped only by the coronavirus pandemic, according to the poll conducted by HOPE not Hate (Hnh), an anti-extremism non-profit.

We can totally trust this hardcore leftist group’s polling, right?

The issue is most palpable among supporters of Joe Biden with 73 per cent agreeing that tackling the climate crisis an urgent issue. The Democratic presidential candidate has called climate change an “existential threat to humanity”.

President Trump’s supporters are split: Some 37 per cent agree that we are running out of time to tackle climate change while the same percentage disagree.

However the US poll also found that a significant number of Americans are climate change deniers.

One in five people strongly dismiss the notion that humans are contributing to global warming, while another 19 per cent somewhat believe it is the case.

Yet, how many of those 73% of Biden voters do more in their own lives than change a few light bulbs? And then a separate poll, for which they do not provide a link

The polling, conducted by JL Partners for The Independent, found that 42 per cent of people agree, and “strongly” agree, with transitioning away from fossil fuels.

Some 26 per cent of people said they were unsure of how to answer, while 8 per cent agreed with neither.

The poll, of 1,002 people from 26-28th October, also revealed that 22 per cent disagree, or “strongly” disagree, with transitioning away from oil and gas.

I’d love to see the party affiliation breakdown, but, let’s face it, you know that a majority of that 42 percent are Harris/Biden voters, who refuse to give up their own use of fossil fuels in their own lives. However, let’s give the Harris/Biden voters some credit, they aren’t using much in the way of fossil fuels to drive to Biden events

Say, How Many Guns Have Americans Bought During Year Of Unrest?

By William Teach October 31, 2020 – 6:46 am

Would 17 million shock you, when we’ve been dealing with Bat Soup Virus lockdown and lots of restrictions, coming mostly from Democratic Party governors and mayors, along with violence and threats in Democratic Party run cities across the country, for which the Democratic Party mayors and governors mostly did nothing?

Americans have bought record 17m guns in year of unrest, analysis finds

Americans have bought nearly 17m guns so far in 2020, more than in any other single year, according to estimates from a firearms analytics company.

Gun sales across the United States first jumped in the spring, driven by fears about the coronavirus pandemic, and spiked even higher in the summer, during massive racial justice protests across the country, prompted by police killings of black Americans.

“By August, we had exceeded last year’s total. By September, we exceeded the highest total ever,” said Jurgen Brauer, the chief economist of Small Arms Analytics, which produces widely cited estimates of US gun sales.

The estimated number of guns sold in the US through the end of September 2020 is “not only more than last year, it’s more than any full year in the last 20 years we have records for”, Brauer said.

The previous record for estimated firearms sold in a single year was 16.6m in 2016, when Hillary Clinton ran for president against Donald Trump and endorsed a strong gun-control platform, he said.

Democrats really are the best firearms sales people, aren’t they? Gun dealers love Democrats in office and making threats, because they sell quite a bit of product. Of course, they also want some checks on the Democrats, because they know Dems are serious about implementing massive restrictions on this Constitutional Right

The spike in gun sales comes amid rising tensions and intense political polarization. Citing “the current unrest”, Walmart removed guns and ammunition from display in stores this week, as a “precaution” against theft if stores are robbed, the Wall Street Journal reported. The retailer did not confirm when firearms and ammunition would be put back on display but said that customers could continue to buy guns and ammunition by request.

So, Walmart is concerned about Harris/Biden voters breaking in and stealing guns and ammo, even when they are in strong locked cabinets. I should walk by the ammo cabinet in my Walmart (they have no guns, and haven’t as long back as I can remember). It’s not Trump voters going criminal they are worried about.

While there is no hard data on how many Americans bought a gun for the first time this year, advocates across the political spectrum say they believe that many of the guns sold in 2020 went to new gun owners.

Fears about lawlessness and government instability drove many people to purchase firearms, according to a recent survey of California residents conducted by researchers at the University of California, Davis.

Of the people who said they had bought guns this year, “Two-thirds expressed worry about lawlessnes, and close to half worried about prisoners being released. Half also cited worry about the ‘government going too far’,” said Nicole Kravitz-Wirtz, the lead author of the study.

So, new owners because Democrat government is crazy. Check.

“The common thread is just uncertainty,” said Kareem Shaya, a gun rights advocate and another founder of Open Source Defense, which has organized dozens of video training sessions for first-time gun owners this year. “A feeling of, hey, if nobody else is going to be able to take care of me, push comes to shove, I want to be able to take care of myself.”

It certainly didn’t help that so many Democrats were calling for defunding the police, eh? And still are.

Your Vote Matters Or The Planet Will Die Or Something

By William Teach October 30, 2020 – 3:00 pm

Unhinged climate cultist John Sutter is missing something important

America, if you care about climate, vote like it

Linda, a reader in California, wrote to me recently after I invited people to have a dialogue about the looming climate apocalypse. She sent me a question I know many of you have on your minds as US election season nears an end: “Can Biden/Harris make a difference if they are aggressive in putting new [climate change] regulations in place?”

The answer is a clear yes. Voting for the Joe Biden-Kamala Harris ticket — and rejecting President Donald Trump — can be expected to yield actual-tangible results on climate change.

There are limits to those results, to be sure — which is why American voters must also seek out Senate, House and local candidates who support swift action on the climate crisis.

But the 2020 presidential election, in substantive ways, despite all else that is going on in the world, is an election about the climate emergency. There are many issues dividing Biden and Trump, from racial justice to Covid-19. Perhaps no chasm is wider than climate, though. (snip)

[Biden] proposes two overarching goals that, if achieved, would mean the United States was doing its part to try to limit catastrophic warming that makes storms more dangerous, lengthens the wildfire season, drives mass extinction and displaces people around the world.

The first is achieving net zero emissions in the electric sector by 2035.

The second is net zero US emissions — economy-wide — by 2050.

And he’ll do this by skyrocketing your cost of energy, which will skyrocket your cost of living. All while Joe, Kamala, and the rest of the elected aristocrats who vote for this will continue with their big carbon footprints, which you, the tax payer, will be charged for. Your tax money will go to pay for the higher costs associated with supporting the lifestyles of elected officials, as well as all the government bureaucrats, and all the carbon offsets. They’ll just go about their normal day to day lives, taking long fossil fueled trips, riding in fossil fueled SUVs, eating well at the Congressional cafeterias, and so forth. You, on the other hand, will be paying through the nose in your own life, with no one giving you money.

That’s if you have a job, since this will reduce economic activity, reduce jobs, and destroy some businesses.

This also goes to show the extreme bias of the Credentialed media, who run anti-Trump stories almost exclusively. It’s nothing new, obviously, it has just got worse and worse, and the media has pretty much received their marching orders to allow no skeptical views be published. Yet, their own carbon footprints are huge, and they make zero changes in their own operations.

If this was so important, so real, why do they have to vote to implement harsh, regressive policies? Wouldn’t people simply take action in their own lives?

Unhinged Biden Voters Erupt In Violence After Guy On Moped Crashes, Dies, While Fleeing Police

By William Teach October 30, 2020 – 10:30 am

Apparently, if you’re of a certain racial demographic, you are allowed to commit whatever moving violation you want, and it’s the police’s fault if you kill yourself attempting to flee

Protests erupt in Washington following fatal moped crash

12 officers have been injured after the second consecutive night of violent demonstrations in front of a Washington D.C. police station.

Protests broke out on Wednesday night after a vigil for 20-year-old Karon Hylton Brown, who died while trying to evade the police. Demonstrators at the protest threw rocks, bricks and fireworks at officers. They have blamed police for the death of Hylton-Brown.

Authorities initially tried to stop the 20-year-old for not wearing a helmet while riding a moped-scooter, when he fled and collided with another vehicle.

“They need to check their officers,” stated Charles Brown, Hylton-Brown’s father. “When they’re doing something that’s messed up out here, they ain’t gotta do it on the streets so we can see it, but when they get back to the precinct right here they need to tell them…. ‘hey look, that was messed up what you did out there.’”

The mayor has thrown the police under the bus, because, apparently, police are not supposed to follow when someone is attempting to evade the police on the roads. Or, you know, people could just take the traffic stop like a responsible citizen. They might have only warned Karon for ….. violating the rules of the road and not wearing a helmet, a measure designed to protect the rider for serious harm.

https://twitter.com/jackiebensen/status/1321218149606395917?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw%7Ctwcamp%5Etweetembed%7Ctwterm%5E1321218149606395917%7Ctwgr%5Eshare_3&ref_url=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.oann.com%2Fprotests-erupt-in-washington-following-fatal-moped-crash%2F

Now, that link in the excerpt goes to a CNN article (bear with me)

Hylton was driving a Revel scooter on the sidewalk without a helmet on Friday, prompting police officers to turn on their emergency lights and attempt to make a traffic stop, according to a news release from the Metropolitan Police Department. As Hylton exited an alley, his moped crashed into another vehicle, the department said.

So, he was illegally on the sidewalk without a helmet, both illegal, and the cops simply turned on their lights to make a routine traffic stop. Hylton took off down an alley, apparently without the police in hot pursuit (it’s a moped, people), and crashed because of what would be consider felony evasion. If there was more to blame the cops, CNN would be offering it, right?

Why is it always Biden voters who get all sorts of violent?
