LYING PREDATOR LAWYER ANDREW CUOMO - ANOTHER REASON WHY LAWYERS SHOULD BE BANNED FROM ELECTIVE OFFICE - REMEMBER SERIAL RAPIST BILLARY CLINTON AND HIS GRIFTER LAWYER HILLARY?

New York City Mayor Bill de Blasio (D) called on Gov. Andrew Cuomo (D) to leave his role after a woman accused him of groping her, joining five others who accused him of sexual harassment.

“He can no longer serve as governor,” de Blasio remarked at a daily briefing on Thursday after he was asked about the latest allegations against Cuomo.

“The latest report…That the governor called an employee in of his, someone who he had power over, called them to a private place and then sexually assaulted her, is absolutely unacceptable,” de Blasio added. “It is disgusting to me.”

The Times Union of Albany reported Wednesday that the unidentified woman was alone with Cuomo at the governor’s residence when he closed the door and reached under her shirt to touch her.

“I have never done anything like this,” Cuomo said Wednesday, denying the allegation and calling what was detailed in the report “gut-wrenching.”

During an appearance on Wednesday’s edition of MSNBC’s “The Last Word,” Senate Majority Leader Chuck Schumer (D-NY) stated that the sexual harassment allegations against Cuomo are “really serious, really troubling,” and must be “carefully looked at.”

“Well, every one of these allegations is really serious, really troubling, and needs to be carefully, carefully looked at,” Schumer said. “I have always said that sexual harassment is just not tolerable in our society, and we know that. And so, I, early on, called for an independent investigation.” 

Longest-Serving NY Politician Calls for Andrew Cuomo’s Resignation: ‘No Longer the Right Governor for New York’

New York Assemblyman Richard Gottfried (D), the state’s longest-serving assemblyman, has joined the mounting calls for Gov. Andrew Cuomo (D) to resign amid dueling scandals — allegations of sexual harassment and his administration’s nursing home cover-up — stating he is “no longer the right governor for New York.”

“Multiple and growing credible allegations of sexual harassment and recent reports detailing the cover-up of the true COVID-19 death toll in nursing homes are extremely disturbing and make it clear that Governor Cuomo is no longer the right governor for New York,” Gottfried, who has been a member of the Assembly for more than 50 years, said this week.

“It is clear that it is best for Governor Cuomo to resign,” he said.

Dozens of lawmakers have since joined his call, releasing a joint statement calling for Cuomo’s resignation. The lawmakers cited Cuomo’s “admission of inappropriate behavior and the findings of altered data on nursing home COVID-19 deaths.” Because of that, they say, Cuomo has effectively “lost the confidence of the public and the state legislature, rendering him ineffective in this time of most urgent need.” That is not to say, however, that they do not have faith in Attorney General Letitia James’s (D) independent investigation. They made it clear they are “fully confident” in her ability to investigate the situation “thoroughly.”

“[We] know that no change in state executive leadership will impede or affect her office’s important work. We are deeply grateful for her clear-eyed and unwavering leadership,” they wrote.

“In the meantime, the Governor needs to put the people of New York first. We have a Lieutenant Governor who can step in and lead for the remainder of the term, and this is what is best for New Yorkers in this critical time,” they continued. “It is time for Governor Cuomo to resign.”

New York City Mayor Bill de Blasio (D) called on Cuomo to step down on Thursday, telling reporters the governor “can no longer serve” in his role.

“The latest report…That the governor called an employee in of his, someone who he had power over, called them to a private place and then sexually assaulted her, is absolutely unacceptable,” de Blasio said of the latest accusation. “It is disgusting to me.”

Cuomo has consistently denied he inappropriately touched anyone, although he apologized last week for unintentionally acting in a way that “made people feel uncomfortable.”

“I truly and deeply apologize for it. I feel awful about it, and frankly, I am embarrassed by it, and that’s not easy to say. But that’s the truth,” he said last week.

However, he has forcefully denied the latest allegation, telling NBC News, “As I said yesterday, I have never done anything like this.”

“The details of this report are gut-wrenching,” Cuomo continued. “I am not going to speak to the specifics of this or any other allegation given the ongoing review, but I am confident in the result of the Attorney General’s report.”

CHUCK SCHUMER, THE LYING LAWYER, SAYS BIDEN 'INHERITED BORDER MESS' - RIGHT, SURE. IT WASN'T BIDEN WHO TOLD THE WORLD ANYONE WHO JUMPED U.S. UNDEFENDED BORDER BY JANUARY 2021 GETS AMNESTY???

 

Schumer: Biden ‘Inherited’ Border Mess from ‘Nasty, Negative’ Trump 

2:01

Senate Majority Leader Chuck Schumer (D-NY) said Thursday on ABC’s “The View” that President Joe Biden “inherited” a mess on the U.S.-Mexico border from former President Donald Trump.

Co-host Meghan McCain asked, “You were a vocal critic of Trump’s immigration policy of separating the children from their families at the border. You called it cruel and inhumane, and quote, ‘So unlike the America we have known.’ It happened under Obama, and kids are still being detained under President Biden, and his Press Secretary Jen Psaki admitted they have to get their act together with their border policy. Why haven’t you been as critical of President Biden as you were of President Trump, and for Republicans like me that are confused that this is still going on, and there seems to be a different media narrative, can you bring me some clarity?”

Schumer said, “Let me just say this, Joe Biden inherited a huge mess on immigration, and it’s not going to be cleaned up in a month. He’s only been in office since, you know, January 20th, about six weeks, I guess it is, but he’s different. His view of immigration is not like Donald Trump’s, who was nasty, negative, horrible to immigrants. His view is more like your father’s view and my view, which is compassionate but also at the present time competent.”

He added, “One of the problems with the Trump administration is they had such incompetence. They are rolling up their sleeves and working on this. I think it will get better in the next few months. If it doesn’t, I will go to them and say, you’ve got to do better. I will be public. But I’ve got to give them a little bit of a chance because they inherited a big, big mess created by Donald Trump whose views on immigrants— it just turned me off so. To be so nasty to these people and to separate the children from the parents and not care about it. Whoa.”

Five Far-Left Promises Joe Biden Has Kept in His First 50 Days

President Joe Biden marked his 5oth day in office on March 10, thus keeping his promise of establishing a progressive body of government while repealing critical components of former President Donald Trump’s “America First” agenda.

Biden started his presidency by going around Congress to unilaterally change policies through executive orders. On the first day of his presidency, Biden signed a stack of orders rolling back many of Trump’s policy priorities.

1. Revoking the Keystone XL Pipeline

In May 2020, the Biden campaign released a statement saying he will “proudly stand in the Roosevelt Room again as President and stop it for good” when referring to the Keystone XL Pipeline.

On Biden’s first day of office, he revoked the permit for the Keystone XL Pipeline. Criticism has grown from industry stakeholders, GOP lawmakers, and unions. The job loss, some estimates project, will leave up to 70,000 Americans out of work.

“It’s only day one, and with the stroke of a pen, Biden has already taken steps to kill American energy projects like the Keystone XL Pipeline which is critical to energy-producing states like Montana,” Sen. Steve Daines (R-MT) said in a statement.

Trump had issued the presidential permit, which authorized work on the pipeline. The permit created thousands of U.S. jobs, directly and indirectly.

Mark McManus, general president of the United Association of Union Plumbers and Pipefitters, said the move to end the pipeline “is a slap in the face to the thousands of union workers who are already a part of this safe and sustainable project.”

2. Ending Migration Controls

In March 2020, Biden promised to end Trump’s “Remain in Mexico” program, which helped effectively end the practice of border crossers being released into the U.S. interior while they await their asylum hearings.

“Donald Trump’s ‘Remain in Mexico’ policy is dangerous, inhumane, and goes against everything we stand for as a nation of immigrants,” Biden wrote in a statement. “My administration will end it.”

As one of his first executive orders, Biden ended Remain in Mexico and is now releasing roughly 25,600 of the migrants enrolled in the program into the U.S. interior.

3. Pledge to Get Back into the World Health Organization (W.H.O.)

In July 2020, Biden pledged to join the W.H.O. on his first day in office.

As one of his first executive orders in January, Biden wrote to the United Nations to declare that the U.S. would not be leaving the W.H.O., despite concerns about China’s dominance and W.H.O.’s failure on the coronavirus.

4. Rejoining the Paris Climate Accord

In November 2020, Biden promised to rejoin the Paris Climate Agreement on his first day in office.

On Biden’s first day in office, January 20th, he returned the U.S. to the Paris Agreement.

5. Halting Deportations for Most Illegal Aliens

Continuously throughout the 2020 presidential campaign, Biden promised to ensure that illegal aliens are not deported until they are convicted of felonies.

“[T]he only deportations that will take place is convictions of felonies in the United States of America,” Biden said in March 2020.

In Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) agency memos, Biden has prevented agents from arresting and deporting about nine-in-ten illegal aliens who would have otherwise been detained. Specifically, the enforcement guidelines stop agents from deporting an illegal alien unless they are a recently convicted aggravated felon.

64K Migrants Apprehended in Texas-Based Border Sectors in Feb. — Up 27 Percent from Jan.

Border Patrol agents assigned to the five Texas-based sectors apprehended nearly 64,000 migrants in February. This represents an increase of more than 27 percent from the previous month.

Agents assigned to the Rio Grande Valley, Laredo, Del Rio, Big Bend, and El Paso Sectors apprehended 63,734 migrants in February, according to the Southwest Border Land Encounters Report released by U.S. Customs and Border Protection officials on Wednesday. This represents an increase of 13,619 migrants over the January report. Note: The El Paso Sector includes apprehensions in New Mexico.

The Texas sectors account for 65 percent of all migrant border apprehensions, the report indicates.

The Rio Grande Valley Sector is clearly the epicenter of the current border crisis with nearly 28,000 migrants (nearly 29 percent) being apprehended out of the total apprehensions of 96,974. The apprehensions in the RGV Sector jumped 63,7 percent from January’s 17,056.

The El Paso Sector is next with 13,181 apprehensions — up 24 percent from January. The Big Bend Sector experienced an increase of 16 percent over the previous month. The Del Rio and Laredo Sectors both reported a slight decrease in apprehensions — 0.7 and 1.7 percent respectively.

By demographic category, the five Texas-based sectors apprehended 41,467 single adults, 7,056 unaccompanied alien children, and 15,211 family unit aliens.

In the Rio Grande Valley Sector alone, Border Patrol agents apprehended 10,489 unaccompanied minors representing more than 55 percent of the 18,945 minors apprehended in all nine southwest border sectors.

In a press conference on Wednesday, Troy Miller, senior official performing the duties of the commissioner of U.S. Customs and Border Protection reported more than 3,000 of the unaccompanied minors apprehended nationally are under the age of 12. The remaining minors are between 13 and 17 years of age.

WATCH: Long Line of Migrants Wait to Cross Texas Border by Raft

MIgrants Crossing
Tripwires and Triggers

Video captured on the banks of the Rio Grande shows the moment when a large group of migrants formed a line in Mexico as a smuggler on a raft crossed them into Texas.

In a video credited to Tripwires and Triggers, a human smuggler can be seen calmly rowing a raft of migrants as a long line of people wait on the Mexican side to cross. The video has since been widely shared on Facebook and on Twitter by users in the Rio Grande Valley.

“Hola,” a man on the U.S. side can be heard saying to a masked human smuggler wearing camouflaged clothing. The smuggler replies “good afternoon” and the two exchange pleasantries as the migrants climb off the raft.

Once the migrants gets off the raft, the smuggler yells back “Right now we will bring the rest.”

The video comes at a time when migrants seeking entry into the U.S. has spiked under the popular belief that President Joe Biden will grant passage or some form of legal status. This week, Texas Governor Greg Abbott blamed the Biden Administration for enabling drug to exploit women and children from Central America.

“The cartels are quite literally being enriched,” Abbott stated. “The Biden Administration is helping cartels make more money.”

Rep. Chip Roy (R-TX) told Breitbart News on Thursday that migrants seeking entry to the U.S. are harmed and killed by President Joe Biden’s “false promises” of amnesty.

“I’m tired of the radical left — of Democrats, including those in the White House, right now — walking around patting themselves on the back for how compassionate they are when, in fact, they are endangering the lives of the immigrants who they are enticing to come here through their false promises,” Roy stated on SiriusXM’s Breitbart News Daily with special guest host Jerome Hudson.

“[Democrats] get out there and say all this stuff about amnesty. They encourage people to come here. … It’s irresponsible, and today, while you and I are speaking, some little girl is getting abused by a cartel or by some other illicit actor in Mexico because their parents decided to send them up here in a risky journey and they rode  on top of a train,” Roy said.

“These are human beings damn it,” Roy stated. “These are people that are being used as political pawns by Democrats because they callously want political power and they sell something as false. They sell something that is untrue, and it hurts people and it hurts American citizens, and it hurts to immigrants who come here.”

LISTEN:

Roy went on, “I’m just sick and tired of [Democrats] trying to claim the high road, that they’re somehow for brown people or for helping people. They call me a bigot because I want a secure border, when a secure border is decidedly pro-America, pro-Constitution, but also decidedly pro-immigrant.”

Hudson described Democrat and left-wing advocacy for amnesty and hostility towards border security as incentives for illegal immigration and human smuggling across the U.S.-Mexico border.

“Tens of thousands of women and girls [will] be raped and sexually assaulted,” Hudson said, “[an] untold number who just give their money to the cartel coyotes and never make it. There are mass graves near Texas, right now, today, and those graves are filled with the bodies of people who died trying to make it to the border.”

Hudson concluded, “The American left … basically encourage these waves that we see, certainly Joe Biden talking about granting amnesty to people [is] a pull factor, and a lot of people are hurt, not only the American people, but the people who are who are coming here and they shouldn’t be.”

Unsecured borders endanger Americans, Roy noted.

“[Joe Biden is] ignoring this crisis, allowing his secretary of Homeland Security to lie — that there is no crisis — while Americans are endangered, ignoring the constitutional duty to secure the border while 100,000 people were apprehended in February,” Roy held.

Roy said “the circumstances on the border” are “endangering Texans and Americans [and] immigrants abused by cartels seeking to come here.”

Roy noted how Democrats and the broader left frame their opposition to American sovereignty as a function of compassion for migrants.

“Whoever’s running our government, they are purposely endangering the United States,” he said. “Whether it’s Kamala Harris or the chief of staff or Joe Biden, they’re purposely endangering American citizens, and more callously than that, they’re endangering immigrants.”

Roy concluded, “They’re blowing up countries to our South under this false name of compassion, trying to actually seem like they’re great and, ‘Look at us, we’re helping everybody,’ and nothing could be further from the truth, while fentanyl is pouring across our border [and] cartels are empowered. Guatemala, El Salvador, Honduras, Mexico are actually harmed, and meanwhile American citizens die on our streets.”

Critics: Joe Biden’s $4 Billion Promise Is ‘Fig Leaf’ to Hide Extraction Migration

President Joe Biden’s deputies say he is trying to repair Central America’s migration-crippled economies with $4 billion in financial aid for the next four years.

But “The $4 billion is a fig leaf to conceal the fact that the real policy is to allow everyone to come in,” responded Jessica Vaughan, the policy director at the Center for Immigration Studies. The aid “is a prop to give the public the impression that they are dealing with the problem,” even though they continued to extract valuable young migrants from Central America for use in the U.S. economy, she said.

The U.S. is “strip-mining” the Central Amerian countries of their young people, in tacit cooperation with the cartels and coyotes who traffick the migrants in exchange for a share of their wages, she said.

The aid promised by Biden’s people is very limited. It is far less than the taxpayer spending migrants trigger among U.S. state and local governments, and far less than the money sent from the United States by migrants back to their home countries.

Biden’s aid would total $4 billion over four years for the 33 million in Honduras, Guatemala, and El Salvador. The works out to $121 per person, or $30 per year, while huge numbers of young people exit those countries to accept open-borders invitations, jobs, and the hope of U.S. citizenship from Biden and his deputies.

In contrast, the three countries received roughly $10.3 billion in remittances in 2019 from their emigrants, the vast majority of whom are now living and working in the United States, according to Pew Research Center. The flow of remittance is 10 times Biden’s promised flow of aid.

The promise of $30.22 per person was sketched out by Roberta Jacobson, Biden’s “Special Assistant to the President & Coordinator for the Southern Border.”

The President has committed to seeking $4 billion over four years to address the root causes of migration, including corruption, violence, and economic devastation exacerbated by climate change. As part of that plan, we will address the causes that compel individuals to migrate, including improving governance and providing a foundation for investment and economic opportunity, strengthening civilian security, and the rule of law … Only by addressing those root causes, can we break the cycle of desperation and provide hope for families who clearly would prefer to stay in their countries and provide a better future for their children.

Yet the U.S. government still will welcome migrants from those countries and will even fly them from those countries directly to the United States, she said.

“Working across the whole of [U.S.] government, we will look at access to international protection and refugee resettlement and rethinking asylum processing to ensure fair and faster consideration … Going forward, we will continue to look for ways to provide legal avenues in the region for people needing protection while we continue to enforce our laws.

And the aid program will be hands-off, with very little pressure on the local governments, she added:

We can’t make the changes. We can [just] encourage them. We can help support them with resources both technical assistance and funding, but we can’t make those changes. The changes have to come in the Northern Triangle countries …  The president really wants to move forward on this, but he won’t unless he feels he has those commitments from the local governments] on an ongoing basis.

The $4 billion will go to low-impact projects, according to Jacobsen:

There are myriad people in organizations who are trying to make those changes. And part of what we want to do is empower them …  [by giving] economic support, whether it’s training for young people, whether it’s anti-gang programs, whether it’s mothers’ clubs and empowering local communities, all of that gets done through people on the ground, not by the United States … We [could] deliver new lighting facilities that reduce violence and crime, you know.

The Federation for American Immigration Reform scoffed at Jacobson’s comments:

The administration [has an] utterly unrealistic plan to end the crisis they created. Rather than take immediate steps to actually restore effective enforcement policies they have dismantled, the White House continues to suggest that $4 billion to fight ‘corruption, violence and economic devastation’ in a region that has experienced generations of corruption, violence and economic devastation is going to solve all of their problems and ours.

The one word that can be applied to the administration’s response to the full-blown crisis they have created, and to their feeble attempt to explain it to the American public is “pathetic.”

If Jacobson and Biden were seriously trying to stop the northward migration, they would offer to spend more money, Vaughan said. “It would take a lot more than $4 billion to fix all of the civil society and economic problems in these three countries — because first of all, they have to be motivated to fix it,” she said.

But the Central American governments are corrupt, and are not motivated to fix the root cause of migration because they favor the migration, said Vaughan. The current U.S. extraction migration policy vacuums away all the young people who might demand political change and then returns migrants’ wages back to fund the government and keep the population quiet, Vaughan said.

“What’s going to stop this [migration] crisis is changing [U.S.] policies and ceasing the practice of letting those who get here come in and stay,” she said.

But Biden’s deputies have zero intention of stopping the extraction migration that endangers migrants and cripples the Central American countries, Vaughan noted. For example, Jacobson blamed the current crisis on President Donald Trump’s low-migration border policies, which created a “pent-up demand” by migrants to enter the United States:

We’ve seen surges before surges tend to respond to hope, and there was a significant hope for a more humane policy after four years of, you know, pent up demand. So I don’t know whether I would call that a coincidence, but I certainly think that the idea that a more humane policy would be in place may have driven people to make that [migration] decision. But perhaps more importantly, it definitely drove smugglers to spread disinformation about what was now possible.

Jacobson’s “pent-up demand” claim shows that she believes that migration is “caused by forces that we cannot control and so we, therefore, must accept all of these people,” responded Vaughan. “She thinks that we should be meeting the demand of all of these people to come here, no matter how many people want to come in …. for humanitarian reasons.”
But she also plans to hide the cruelty of that agenda under the $4 billion fig leaf of economic aid, Vaughan added.


CBP: 100K Southwest Border ‘Encounters’ Show 28 Percent Increase in February

U.S. Customs and Border Protection reports more than 100,000 “encounters” in February — up 28 percent from January.

The agency adds that 25,000 of the latest crossers show prior apprehension records.

The Houston Chronicle reported that the Biden Administration is downplaying the surge in migration:

The Biden administration acknowledged some responsibility for the surge on Wednesday, saying it is at least in part attributable to the hope offered by his administration’s shift to a more “humane” immigration system.

But officials stressed the administration is still turning away the vast majority of migrants who arrive, and blamed the Trump administration for pushing policies that “didn’t just neglect our immigration system, they intentionally made it worse.”

The new figures come as outlets including the New York Times and CBS News report that the number of migrants apprehended at the border has tripled in the last two weeks.

“We’ve seen surges before,” Roberta Jacobson, a former diplomat who is now Biden’s “border czar,” said at a White House press briefing on Wednesday. “Surges tend to respond to hope, and there was a significant hope for a more humane policy after four years of pent-up demand.”

Republicans, however, are pointing out how Biden’s reversal 0f Trump immigration policies yields a more inviting message.

“These numbers aren’t surprising at all — this is what you get when you incentivize illegal immigration like the Biden Administration is doing,” Rep. Dan Crenshaw (R-TX) said. “We can stop this by simply enforcing federal immigration laws and re-implementing the policies that discourage illegal immigration.”

“It’s a tragedy that could be completely avoided,” Rep. Chip Roy (R-TX) said at a press conference after the data were released. “This is the Biden border crisis. It is owned completely and entirely by President Biden and his administration.”

“The vast majority of encounters the Border Patrol reported in February — 71,598 — were with single adults, though the number of families and unaccompanied children grew rapidly from January,” the Chronicle reported. “Border Patrol reported encounters with 19,246 families, up from 7,399 the month before. The agency reported encounters with 9,457 unaccompanied children, up from 5,858 in January.”

Migrants reportedly see Biden’s election as a green light to come north. 

“They see him as the migrant president, and so many feel they’re going to reach the United States,” Reuters reported Mexican President Andrés Manuel López Obrador said of Biden after he met virtually with his counterpart.
