America Faces No Greater Threat Than Joe Biden and the Democrat Party. Their Assault to Our Borders Is As Great As Their Assault to Free Speech and Free Elections

CRIME IN DEMOCRAT-CONTROLLED MELTDOWN CITIES - Black Voters Say They’re Concerned About Violent Crime. White Liberals Think It’s a GOP ‘Conspiracy’ Fueled by ‘Data Deniers.’
Black Voters Say They’re Concerned About Violent Crime. White Liberals Think It’s a GOP ‘Conspiracy’ Fueled by ‘Data Deniers.’
Democrats aren't just out of touch with America, they're out of touch with their own voters
Black voters are concerned about violent crime. Most Americans agree, with one notable exception: White liberals.
According to a recent Pew survey of registered voters, 82 percent of black Democrats said violent crime was a "very important" issue in the 2022 election, compared with just 33 percent of white Democrats.
Overall, 61 percent of registered voters described violent crime as a very important factor when deciding who to vote for in the upcoming midterm election. The groups least likely to agree with that assessment were Democratic voters (49 percent), voters under 30 (44 percent), voters with graduate degrees (44 percent), and self-described liberals (34 percent).
Gov. Kathy Hochul (D., N.Y.) is a white liberal running in a state President Joe Biden won by 23 points. Nevertheless, her Republican challenger, Rep. Lee Zeldin, is within striking distance thanks in part to his campaign's focus on violent crime. "Mr. Zeldin could win because independents are siding with Republicans on crime and inflation rather than with Democrats, whose concerns over protecting democracy take precedence," former Clinton adviser Mark Penn wrote in the New York Times this week.
The Democratic Party's increasingly radical approach to crime in recent years has already provoked a backlash from voters. Even the liberal residents of San Francisco were outraged at District Attorney Chesa Boudin's attempt to create a "fair" justice system by refusing to punish criminals. Boudin was recalled in June by a vote of 55 percent to 45 percent. The following month, voters in deep-blue Maryland voted to oust Baltimore state's attorney Marilyn Mosby, who adopted similar "reforms" even as murder rates soared.
Generally speaking, journalists and other Democrats have struggled to address or even acknowledge voter concerns about crime. They repeatedly attack Republican efforts to highlight crime in campaign ads as "racist dog whistles." They occasionally point to charts and graphs to explain that voters are wrong to be concerned. They have already started blaming voters for destroying democracy by prioritizing inflation and crime over the latest revelations from the January 6 select committee.
Hochul's response during an interview with Al Sharpton on MSNBC epitomized her party's flippant approach. "These are master manipulators," she said of Republicans. "They have this conspiracy going all across America trying to convince people in Democratic states that they’re not as safe. Well guess what? They’re also not only election deniers, they’re data deniers."
That doesn't sound like a winning message.
Star High School Football Player Shot Dead in Gun-Controlled California
Seventeen-year-old high school player Richard Reed was shot dead over the weekend in gun-controlled California.
TMZ Sports reported San Bernardino County Sheriff’s Department deputies responded to a call on October 30, 2022, and found Reed lying in the street in Victorville around 11 p.m.
Reed, described as “a standout football player from Silverado High School,” was pronounced dead at the scene. He had a gunshot wound and his death was ruled a homicide.
ABC 7 noted Reed “played offense, defense and special teams for the Silverado Hawks.”
A home security camera in the area in which Reed’s body was found “captured the sound of what appeared to be dozens of rounds of gunfire.”
The Victor Valley UHSD superintendent Carl Coles released a statement on Reed’s death, which said, in part: “This is a heartbreaking loss for the students, staff, and families of Silverado High School. On behalf of the Board of Trustees and the entire VVUHSD community, we will keep Richard’s family, friends, teammates, coaches and teachers in our thoughts and prayers. We will continue to support each other as we face this devastating tragedy.”
On June 5, 2022, Breitbart News observed California is ranked No. 1 for gun control by Mike Bloomberg-affiliated Everytown for Gun Safety, and the state is also ranked No. 1 for “active shooter incidents.”
California has universal background checks, an “assault weapons” ban, a “high capacity” magazine ban, a 10-day waiting period on gun purchases, a red flag law, gun registration requirements, a ban on carrying a gun on college campuses for self-defense, a ban on K-12 teachers being armed on campus for classroom defense, a background check requirement for ammunition purchases, and a limit on the number of guns a law-abiding citizen can purchase in a given month, strict regulations on firearm advertisements, and numerous other gun controls.
Additionally, Californians are only allowed to make ammunition purchases from state-approved vendors.

Poll: Black Voters Overwhelmingly See Violent Crime as Very Important Issue for Midterms
Black voters are significantly more concerned about violent crime than other racial and ethnic groups, according to a Pew Research Poll released just over one week before the midterm elections.
Pew Research Center found 61 percent of American voters believe violent crime is “very important” when deciding who to vote for in next week’s midterm elections.
However, Pew found 81 percent of black voters believe violent crime is a very important issue when considering who to vote for, compared to 65 percent of Hispanic voters and 56 percent of white voters.
Interestingly, 82 percent of black Democrats think crime is very important to their vote next week, while only 33 percent of white Democrat voters feel the same.
Pew Research Center surveyed 5,098 U.S. adults, including 3,993 registered voters, from October 10 to October 16.
If Pew’s poll numbers are any indication, Republicans, who have emphasized crime in their pitch to voters this midterm cycle, could be in for record levels of support from black voters.
While Democrats are trying to pivot away from anti-law enforcement policies like defunding the police or abolishing ice, the GOP is presenting themselves as voters’ tough-on-crime choice in next week’s election.
For example, House GOP Leader Kevin McCarthy (R-CA) pledged to hold federal funds from local prosecutors and “woke district attorneys” who refuse to prosecute crimes as part of House Republicans’ Commitment to America plan.
In the upper chamber, National Republican Senatorial Committee chairman Sen. Rick Scott (R-FL) released an 11-point plan that, among other things, similarly calls on Republicans to focus on reducing the country’s rising crime rates. Point three in Scott’s plan strives to reduce crime by increasing police funding and imposing tougher penalties for criminals.
Scott told Breitbart News that the way to end the crime wave is to “enforce the law.”
The Republican Party is also focused on securing our southern border, which would reduce crime and the fentanyl influx by cracking down on those who enter the country illegally.
Black voters’ emphasis on crime could also be the reason why they are increasingly supporting the Republican Party and Republican candidates at record levels.
Recently, an October USA Todaypoll found that 21 percent of black Americans support the GOP. If the Republican Party can gain 21 percent of the black vote in next week’s midterms, that would nearly double the 12 percent of black voters who supported former President Donald Trump in 2020, which was a record for a GOP presidential candidate in recent years.
Georgia, which has a 33 percent black population, could be a preview of what Republicans can expect nationwide from black voters.
For example, Georgia Sen. Raphael Warnock (D) is performing 12 points worse among black voters than he did in last year’s special election, according to recent polls. Further, Georgia Democrat gubernatorial candidate Stacey Abrams is also struggling to get the same amount of black support in this cycle as she did in her 2018 loss to Georgia Gov. Brian Kemp (R).
Abrams is polling at less than 80 percent among black voters, which is a decline from the 85 percent she earned in 2018.
Rapper Takeoff, one-third of hip-hop act Migos, was shot and killed Tuesday morning, according to a report.
He was gunned down at a private party at 810 Billiards & Bowling in downtown Houston, TMZ reported. He was 28.
The “Walk It Talk It” hitmaker, whose real name is Kirshnik Khari Ball, died soon after Houston Police and fire officials arrived on the scene at around 2:40 a.m. following multiple reports of a shooting.
Houston Police Lt. Ronnie Willkens said the man appeared to have been shot in the head or neck, AP reports.
Two other victims were transported to nearby hospitals and their immediate fate is reportedly unknown.
Police did not release the identities of the victims, but said it was a fatal shooting.

The victim’s identity will not be released until it is verified by the county coroner and his family has been notified, police said.
Police confirmed that Migos members Quavo and Takeoff were in attendance at the time of the shooting, according to KPRC.

Similar attacks have become increasingly common on the other side of the Atlantic Ocean in New York City, with the New York Post recently reporting there have been 25 such incidents on NYC’s venerable subway system so far in 2022.
Khan’s London: Police Arrest Suspect After Man Shoved Onto Underground Tracks
The British Transport Police (BTP) have arrested a suspect after releasing footage of a man they were seeking in relation to a member of the public being shoved onto the tracks of the London Underground on October 27th.
The force released video footage of a black male who they were “seeking to identify in connection [with the incident] after he was seen behaving aggressively at Marylebone station on Saturday 29 October” on their website and on social media.
On Thursday, the London Underground, often referred to as the Tube, saw a “series of assaults”, with one man allegedly assaulted at Baker Street station at 11:50 a.m., another allegedly shoved onto the railway tracks at around 12 p.m., and a third coming forward to say he was allegedly “assaulted by the same man on a train from Finchley Road” later on.
Announcing they had found the man they believed to be a suspect, the BTP said: “We’re pleased to update that a 37-year-old man has been arrested after a man was pushed on the tracks and two others assaulted on the Underground last week,” in an update on the case shared on social media.
“He was identified by two off duty officers on the Central Line this afternoon. Thanks to everyone who shared our appeal,” they added.
Similar attacks have become increasingly common on the other side of the Atlantic Ocean in New York City, with the New York Post recently reporting there have been 25 such incidents on NYC’s venerable subway system so far in 2022.
These shoving attacks sometimes prove deadly, as in January of this year when Michelle Alyssa Go, a 40-year-old East Asian heritage woman, died after being pushed into the path of an oncoming train by Simon Martial, a 61-year-old black male.
They have also taken place in Continental Europe, with a Moroccan migrant pushing a woman onto railway tracks in Hamburg, Germany in 2017, and a Tunisian migrant pushing a man onto railway tracks on the Paris Metro in France and yelling “Allahu Akbar!” in January of this year, for example.

Feds Scoop Up Violent Fentanyl Trafficker Let Loose by Soros Prosecutor

Federal prosecutors have indicted a violent convicted drug trafficker for fentanyl distribution after a Virginia prosecutor boosted by the left-wing billionaire George Soros released the felon without bail just a day after his arrest.
Alpha Kamara last week was charged and taken into federal custody for conspiracy to distribute 400 grams or more of fentanyl, according to a Justice Department filing unsealed on Monday. The indictment supersedes charges brought by Fairfax County commonwealth's attorney Steve Descano (D.), who on June 27 filed charges against Kamara for the same case, only to release the offender without bail one day after his arrest.
The Justice Department's decision to charge Kamara ensures Descano's office won't mishandle the case. Descano has a history of releasing offenders before trial, dropping charges, and reducing sentences—sometimes with deadly consequences. His office last year dropped felony charges for a man who was charged later for killing two homeless men and wounding three others in New York City and Washington, D.C. In June, the prosecutor released on probation a violent repeat offender who went on to beat an elderly homeless woman to death at a bus stop.
Descano's soft-on-crime approach is typical of Soros-backed prosecutors, who have in the past decade received more than $40 million in donations from the Democratic megadonor. Soros contributed more than half-a-million dollars to Descano's campaign, along with fellow far-left Virginia prosecutors Buta Biberaj in Loudoun County and Parisa Dehghani-Tafti in Arlington County, dwarfing any other donation amounts in the races and helping to oust veteran prosecutors. Fueled by citizens' concerns over rising crime and lenient prosecution, recall efforts have spawned in each of the three Virginia counties, as well as in major cities like San Francisco and Los Angeles. In the Bay Area, city residents in June voted out far-left prosecutor Chesa Boudin by double digits. Top Democrats in Virginia are similarly courting candidates to challenge Biberaj.
Virginia State Police arrested Kamara on June 26 following a high-speed chase involving a stolen vehicle that ended in a crash on a highway interstate. State troopers seized a loaded 9 mm handgun and more than two kilos of fentanyl pills from the wrecked car, and Kamara was charged with driving without a license, failing to stop at the scene of an accident, resisting arrest, eluding police, grand larceny auto theft, and possession with intent to distribute a schedule I substance. He had been out of federal prison and on supervised release for just three days before his June joyride, having served slightly less than the length of his five-year sentence.
Descano's decision to release Kamara before his trial surprised prosecutors who spoke with the Free Beacon, given his criminal record. Virginia Republican attorney general Jason Miyares said the release was "just another example of the criminal-first, victim-last mentality pushed by far-left prosecutors."
"Fentanyl has rapidly become one of the most dangerous opioids to infect neighborhoods across our country," Miyares said. "Nationally, we've lost 105,000 Americans to overdoses from opioids, most commonly fentanyl. Continually letting repeat offenders get back onto the street only encourages more crime and creates even more victims. I am grateful for our partners in the DOJ stepping up when these local prosecutors fail to do their jobs."
The 25-year-old felon's first brush with law enforcement came in 2018, when he was sentenced to five years in prison as part of a major federal crackdown on Blood gang members and violent drug dealers in Northern Virginia. Operation Tin Panda, a joint effort between the FBI and ATF, resulted in 36 convictions and seized scores of firearms and hundreds of thousands of dollars in cash and assets, as well as hundreds of pounds of drugs, including cocaine, methamphetamine, and heroin. The federal agencies greenlighted the operation following a series of murders and violent incidents in Prince William County.
After publication of this article, Descano's office told the Free Beacon it is not able to participate in the arraignment process for defendants—a fact that former members of the Fairfax County commonwealth's attorneys office disputed—and Kamara's release was decided by a county magistrate. The office also said it learned of the release too late to file a motion to apprehend Kamara before he was in federal custody.
"We have always believed that this individual represented a danger to the public and should be held," a spokeswoman for the office said. "We were therefore dismayed that he was released prior to the point in the proceedings at which our office can be involved and pleased to learn from our partners in federal law enforcement, with whom we were coordinating throughout, that they were taking action to get him off the streets. We will pursue our charges in this case vigorously."
A preliminary hearing for the county charges is scheduled in August.
Descano during his tenure has abolished cash bail, told his attorneys to avoid mandatory minimum jail sentencing, and declined to prosecute many misdemeanors. A policy memo he distributed in his first year as Fairfax County's top prosecutor urged assistant commonwealth's attorneys to seek misdemeanor charges over felonies whenever appropriate. He has reportedly told his staff that they "will never get in trouble for prosecuting light." In one fraught meeting, Descano reportedly told one of his prosecutors to reduce a 20-year sentence by 5 years and to not "listen to victims" because they tend to be "overly dramatic."
In Fairfax, Virginians for Safe Communities has gathered more than half of the roughly 30,000 signatures necessary to trigger a special election.
"It is stunning that Steve Descano would cut loose a fentanyl-dealing gun felon after Kamara endangered the lives of the public and law enforcement," said Sean Kennedy, the president of Virginians for Safe Communities. "The citizens of Fairfax need to know that the single biggest threat to public safety is the chief prosecutor and his disregard for the laws and lives of this commonwealth."
Drug overdose deaths have risen nationwide since 2019, driven by new synthetic opioids like fentanyl, according to the CDC. The Drug Enforcement Administration reported synthetic opioid-related deaths shot up 56 percent from 2020 to 2021.
Fairfax County has yet to release its annual police report. Preliminary data show homicides were up 40 percent last year and are on pace to be higher in 2022.
Kamara is in the custody of the U.S. Marshals and being held without bond pending trial.
Update 7/14/2022 at 4:38 p.m.: This story has been updated with a comment from the Fairfax County commonwealth's attorney's office.
Democrat Senate Candidates Across America Reject Border Security
Democratic Senate candidates across the country have fought against border security measures amid an unprecedented border crisis.
Senator Raphael Warnock
Senator Warnock of Georgia is just one Democrat who has fought against border security measures amid our border crisis. The incumbent Senator has voted against Title 42, a policy that allows authorities to expel migrants on the basis of public health.
Warnock has also voted to fund deadly sanctuary cities, prompting National Republican Senate Committee Spokesman Priscilla Ivasco to remark ”In the face of a growing migrant crisis at our Southern border, Senate Democrats once again chose to side with radical, liberal activists instead of with the vast majority of Americans.”
She also said that their policies will lead to a “permanent cycle of illegal immigration.”
National Republican Senate Committee Spokesman Jonathan Turcotte said in a statement that Warnock and other Democrat Senators “failed their most basic duty to secure the border and keep Americans safe” after they voted against legislation that would’ve ensured that the border wall continued to receive funding.
Warnock’s opponent, Herschel Walker, is endorsed by the U.S. Border Patrol Union, as well as various other law enforcement organizations.
Warnock has benefited from mass immigration, with the Democrat incumbent receiving massive swaths of the vote from Georgia’s foreign-born population in his 2020 race.
The New York Times contends that the Senator’s victory in 2020 was “fueled by the state’s changing demographics,” which could “mean that Georgia has finally achieved battleground status.”
The Washington Post also asserted that Warnock has been given a competitive advantage due to “demographic changes that are transforming the state” as a result of mass immigration. Leftist activists have boasted that they are mobilizing immigrant populations for the upcoming election.
Senator Mark Kelly
Meanwhile, Democrat incumbent Mark Kelly from Arizona has a history of voting against border security. Although he comes from a border state that is disproportionately affected by the crisis on our southern border, Kelly voted to end Title 42, just like Warnock.
In addition, the Democrat incumbent voted against an amendment that would have prohibited the Biden administration from canceling border wall contracts for which funds had already been appropriated.
Kelly even lied about this record during his opening statement in his debate against Republican Blake Masters, falsely claiming that he has stood up against the Democratic Party in favor of border security.
Additionally, the Democrat Senator from Arizona voted against a measure that would have prohibited the Internal Revenue Service from hiring any new agents until the U.S. Border Patrol doubled its forces. Kelly’s opponent, Republican Blake Masters, has been endorsed by the National Border Patrol Council.
Representative Tim Ryan
Democrat Senate candidate Tim Ryan of Ohio waffled on the issue of illegal immigration before becoming a stalwart opponent of border security. In 2018, Ryan voted for a resolution that signaled opposition to allowing illegal immigrants to vote.
But just six months later, Ryan voted against a motion to recommit to the resolution against allowing illegal immigrants to vote. Since then, Ryan has repeatedly voted against border security measures that would make America safer.
While in Congress, Democrat Tim Ryan voted to defund the border wall. Ryan also voted to increase the number of immigrant visas and to fund the transportation of migrants deeper into America, thereby making it more difficult for them to be deported.
John Fetterman
Democrat John Fetterman, who is running for Senate in Pennsylvania against Mehmet Oz, falsely claimed that sanctuary city policies that prevent the deportation of illegal immigrants make “everybody safer.” The Democrat candidate noted, “sanctuary cities is another policy that I very much support.”
Senator Maggie Hassan
Citizens for Sanity blasted Democrat Senator Maggie Hassan of New Hampshire in a newspaper advertisement that read “Thank you Senator Hassan for keeping the border open” and “Sex traffickers could never succeed without friends like you.”
The Senator has called for increased personnel on the border, though she has ignored Biden’s policy of catch and release, which has fueled illegal immigration.
Senator Catherine Cortez Masto
Incumbent Democrat Senator Catherine Cortez Masto of Nevada has been accused of feigning concern over the border by her Republican opponent Adam Laxalt. Cortez Masto has supported amnesty and opposed the construction of the border wall.
But the Democrat incumbent spoke out against the Biden Administration’s decision to end Title 42, telling Politico that ending the measure “is the wrong way to do this and it will leave the administration unprepared for a surge at the border.”
Laxalt told Breitbart News that Cortez Masto is “desperately trying to fool Nevadans into thinking she cares about protecting our border,” because she is “trailing in the polls.”
Laxalt also asserted, “The truth is that she’s spent her time in the Senate opposing common sense border security efforts, supporting lawless sanctuary cities, and undermining efforts to stop criminal illegal immigrants.”
Immigration and border security have taken center stage in races across the country as America grapples with a truly unprecedented crisis on our southern border. Roughly 5 million illegal immigrants have crossed our border according to a report from the Federation for American Immigration Reform.
According to one poll, 47 percent of Independent voters say that they trust the Republican Party to handle issues surrounding illegal immigration more than they trust the Democrats. Only 40 percent say they trust the Democrats to handle the issue.
Republicans also hold a two-point advantage when voters are asked who they trust more to handle illegal immigration.
A poll from earlier this summer found that an increasing share of Americans want a decrease in immigration. Forty-one percent of respondents said that they wanted immigration to decrease. A whopping 67 percent of Republican voters want immigration decreased, the poll found.
Recent polling from NBC News found that immigration was one of the top issues for likely voters in the midterms while a poll from Morning Consult also found that it is a top issue.
Encouraging both legal and illegal mass immigration continues to be a primary aim for both politicians and organizations on the left. Breitbart News previously revealed that the wealthy Ford Foundation poured an astonishing $114 million into organizations that push for mass immigration and amnesty.
Breitbart News also revealed that George Soros’s Open Society Foundation dumped millions of dollars into organizations that encourage illegal immigration and amnesty.

2021 VIDEO: John Fetterman Tells Abolish-the-Police Advocacy Group About His ‘Fastest’ Pardon Process in ‘History of Pennsylvania’
Pennsylvania Democrat Senate candidate John Fetterman appeared on an abolish-the-police advocacy group’s show in 2021 to tout his “fastest” pardon process in the “history of Pennsylvania.”
1Hood Power, a “movement” that advocates for political power through “electoral organizing, issues advocacy, and civic education efforts,” hosted Fetterman on its show in January, 2021. Two days before the interview, the group pushed for defunding the police:
1Hood Power markets itself to listeners as supporting the voices of “every black freedom fighter, protester, abolitionist, and activist,” according to its website.
Fetterman, who is the Lt. Gov. of Pennsylvania, appeared on the show to brag about his ability to expedite pardons for felons. “If I had a couple minutes I’d love to talk about pardons. I’m chair of the Board of Pardons and Julie’s joining us, she’s our pardons coordinator for Western Pennsylvania,” he said. “I really want to sell that, because I’m Lieutenant Governor for two more years, and we have expedited pardon processes now. And they’re free, there’s no application fee.”
Fetterman highlighted that the pardons under his supervision have been the “fastest that it has ever” been in “the history” of the state.
“So Julie is an expert on the process and we are sending more and more people through and giving more and more – you know, uh – Just is faster than it’s ever happened in the history of Pennsylvania, quite frankly,” Fetterman said. “So I would just like anyone who’s watching that might need something taken off their record, especially a stupid marijuana conviction from years ago, ridiculous kind of conviction, that now is the time to apply.”
Fetterman continued by suggesting there has “never been a better chance” of getting pardoned under his leadership. “Please don’t waste money on an attorney, like don’t let this process intimidate you or put you off, there’s never been a better – there’s never been a better chance.”
Doubling down, Fetterman again encouraged listeners to “free yourself” of the punishment received for wrongdoing. “I just want to make one last shameless pitch for pardons. Please, you know like, again, truly, in the history of the commonwealth there has never been a better time to get this – to free yourself of something from years ago.”
Fetterman is one of the most radical Senate candidates in the 2022 cycle. Polling shows he is losing to Republican challenger Dr. Mehmet Oz by a few points after Tuesday night’s debate. The betting odds are squarely in Oz’s favor.
Pennsylvania is one of eight Senate swing states that will determine which party controls the upper chamber. Election day is just 11 days away.
