The average income in our country is $5,000 less than the basic cost of living. I'm going to change that. Over the course of the next few weeks, I'll be releasing an economic plan that focuses on ending the corrupt merger of state and corporate power to make sure Americans can once again afford their most essential expenses: housing, food, childcare, commuting to work, and the healthcare we need to survive.

The United States must “finish” the border wall and “crush” cartels to protect the American people, Sen. Tim Scott (R-SC) said during an interview with Breitbart News Saturday, contrasting himself with President Joe Biden and presenting some of the actions he would take should he make it to the White House.

The presidential hopeful, who recently visited the southern border, said the first glaring thing he noticed was that the wall is “incomplete.”

“The number one thing we should do is finish the border wall. The second thing that we should do is use the available technology to stop the fentanyl from killing another 70,000 Americans per year,” Scott said, adding that it is also essential to “crush the cartels” by freezing their assets and sanctioning their accounts.

“We cut off their blood support, so to speak, by taking away their money. If we do that, we’ll save tens of thousands of American lives. I wrote the legislation to get that done. It was passed through the Senate,” Scott said, expressing hope that it becomes law this year “so that we can do what the American people deserve”:

“A safe secure border. Today? Unsafe, insecure, wide open. Why? Joe Biden,” Scott said, identifying the issue as one of many at the forefront of voters’ minds, particularly in places such as Iowa.

Scott continued to contrast himself with Biden, telling Breitbart News Saturday that voters are “responding constructively to an optimistic, positive message anchored in conservatism.”

“What they want is someone that they can trust to stand toe to toe with President Xi, realizing that the existential threat to America is China. They want someone who sees 70,000 dead Americans because of fentanyl as a crisis to be solved. So we close the southern border. We finish the wall. We use military-grade technology to surveil the border so that we stop fentanyl from killing another 70,000 Americans in the next 12 months,” Scott said, adding that voters have been “responding very positive to the fact that [he is] the Republican who was put in charge of police reform.”

LISTEN:

“We have to back the blue. The Democrats want to defund the police. We are going to refund the police. They have demoralized the police. We’re going to restore respect for men and women in law enforcement, and it’s one of the reasons why I was the first non-Floridian to win the Florida Sheriffs Association National Legislative Champion Award,” Scott said, later adding that voters are also frustrated with the effects of Bidenomics.

“Biden wants us to believe what he is saying, not what we are seeing with our own eyes and what we’re feeling with our own hearts on an inability to support our families like we could before he came in office,” Scott said, explaining that despite unemployment being low, we have fewer men in the workforce — 18 to 54 — “than we ever have in the history of the country.”

“So they’re not even being counted in unemployment. That is devastating, and that’s a distortion of the truth. Core inflation is 4.6 percent. That means that food and energy [are] still running really hot, really high, and unaffordable,” Scott said.

“As President of the United States, I would reduce our taxes so you get to keep more of your money,” he said, explaining that it is key to “get government out of the way, and you determine what you do with your life and your money.”

“[As President ] I would make sure that the average family keeps more of their money and that they decide the American Dream for themselves,” Scott added.

Mexican Cartel Weapons Found on Border Along Texas Bank of Rio Grande

Rio Grande Valley Sector Border Patrol agents found a small cache of Mexican cartel weapons on the Texas bank of the Rio Grande. This is the second suspected armed cartel incursion incident in the South Texas border town during the month of August.

As migrant apprehensions surge along the Texas border, law enforcement officers face a growing threat of Mexican Cartel violence in South Texas. Border Patrol officials reported the seizure of two cartel rifles and ammunition found Friday on the U.S. bank of the Rio Grande near Fronton, Texas. There were no arrests made in relation to the incident.

In a Friday morning post on “X,” formerly Twitter, Chief Patrol Agent Gloria Chavez of the Border Patrol’s Rio Grande Sector highlighted the seizure and stated, “Our U.S. Border Patrol Agents confront threats daily as they do their best to secure our border. Agents working jointly with our L.E. partners made a significant discovery of weapons and ammunition hidden by criminal organizations near Fronton, TX.”

The Border Patrol released photos of the weapons seizure of two rifles, several rifle magazines, and an ammunition carrier. The weapons appear to be an AR-15 style rifle and a Kalashnikov-style rifle. One photo shows the Kalashnikov rifle submerged in the river. The agency did not provide any other information regarding the multi-agency discovery other than to indicate no suspects were arrested in connection with the finding.

The small border town of Fronton, with a population of 167 residents, has been the scene of other cartel-related border activity in recent months. On Saturday, the images of three suspected Mexican cartel gunmen crossing the Rio Grande were captured by law enforcement cameras, according to Fox News report. One of the men depicted in the images on Saturday appeared to be wearing body armor. The three suspected Mexican cartel gunmen were not arrested despite a coordinated effort by the Border Patrol to locate them.

On Friday, an armed cartel gunmen crossed the Rio Grande with a group of migrants. He allegedly pointed the rifle at members of the Texas National Guard patrolling near the international railroad bridge in Eagle Pass, Texas, a law enforcement source told Breitbart Texas. A video shows the gunman returning to Mexico dragging a barrel and carrying the rifle.

In June, Department of Public Safety (DPS) Highway Patrol troopers working in the same area arrested five suspected Mexican cartel members and seized two AR-15 style rifles in the same area. In that incident, DPS Spokesperson Lieutenant Chris Olivarez told Breitbart Texas the men were believed to be connected to the Cartel Del Noreste faction of the Los Zetas cartel.

Olivarez told Breitbart Texas, “One of the men told CID special agents they came under fire from Mexican law enforcement and fled across the Rio Grande.” The men were wearing camouflage clothing, complicating the search to find them in the thick brush along the banks of the river.

In addition to the recent incursions by suspected Mexican cartel gunmen, law enforcement agencies are also dealing with a significant surge in migrant crossings in the area. Weekend migrant apprehension numbers provided by the Border Patrol for the Rio Grande Valley Sector show a nearly 200% increase over the last month.  A total of 1647 migrants were encountered during the weekend ending July 8. During the weekend ending August 6, the agency reported migrant encounters had climbed to 4,660.

During the first ten days of August, RGV agents apprehended more than 10,000 migrants, according to a confidential law enforcement source. During the same period, Del Rio Sector agents apprehended more than 6,000 migrants.

Biden Spending Plan: $800 Million to Fight Fentanyl but $24

Billion for Ukraine... FENTANYL IS A GIFT FROM BIDEN'S

FRIENDS AND PAYMASTERS IN RED CHINA AND NARCOMEX!



Heritage Foundation: American Aid to Ukraine Costs $900 Per Household...SOME OF THAT FALLS INTO HUNTER BIDEN'S POCKETS AND THEN WHERE DOES IT END UP???

WASHINGTON, DC - DECEMBER 21: U.S. President Joe Biden (R) welcomes President of Ukraine Volodymyr Zelensky to the White House on December 21, 2022 in Washington, DC. Zelensky is meeting with President Biden on his first known trip outside of Ukraine since the Russian invasion began, and the two leaders …

The Heritage Foundation found that the United States’ current provision of $113 billion in aid to Ukraine costs $900 per American household.

“The formal aid packages alone amount to a staggering $113 billion—roughly $900 per American household and almost 12 times the spending cuts promised by House leadership in the annual spending bills,” Richard Stern, the director of the Heritage Foundation Hermann Center for the Federal Budget, told the Daily Signal.

“This $113 billion spending spree was added to our national debt and will cost more than $300 in interest costs per household over the decade. Of course, we’ve given more aid than that, but haven’t paid the bill on it yet,” he said.


This high dollar estimate arises at a time when Americans are becoming more skeptical about President Joe Biden’s long-term commitment to aiding Ukraine.

“As the war in Ukraine becomes a prolonged conflict, Americans are rightly growing skeptical of sending more taxpayer dollars and equipment from our depleted armory,” Heritage Foundation President Kevin Roberts said.

Roberts added, “Washington has failed to address their concerns, explain our nation’s strategy in the war, or enact basic oversight for our aid. If Congress can’t fix those fundamental issues, they have no business sending more money into the fog of war.”


House conservatives, led by Rep. Warren Davidson (R-OH), objected to Biden’s latest aid request, which would provide Ukraine with $24 billion in military and economic funding.

“This request exacerbates your administration’s out-of-control deficit spending and circumvents the bipartisan debt ceiling agreement,” the House conservatives wrote. “Americans are tired of funding endless wars and want policies that not only help restore fiscal sanity in Washington, but also put America and American citizens first.”

The Republicans asked that the Biden administration provide Congress with its “comprehensive strategy and mission for U.S. involvement in Ukraine.” They said without a formal strategy, “there is no way to develop clear objectives, allocate the proper resources, conduct rigorous oversight, or hold officials accountable for success or failure.”

Biden Spending Plan: $800 Million to Fight Fentanyl but $24 Billion for Ukraine

The White House is asking Congress to spend another $24 billion fighting Russia in Ukraine — but just $800 million to fight fentanyl and other lethal drugs in U.S. communities.

That spending request seeks an extra $300 for Ukraine aid for every $1 it seeks for counter-drug programs.

In 2022, roughly 110,000 Americans died from drug overdoses, principally, from the fentanyl smuggled in from China and Mexico via free-trade routes.

This Jan. 31, 2019, file photo shows a display of fentanyl and meth that was seized by Customs and Border Protection officers over the weekend at the Nogales Port of Entry (Mamta Popat/Arizona Daily Star via AP, File).

President Joe Biden and Congress have already spent more than $100 billion to defend Ukraine in the war, which has now turned into a high-casualty, no-negotiations stalemate.

Since his inauguration, Biden has done little to stem the tide of drugs that accompany migrants from Mexico. For example, in 2023, his deputies signed a deal to streamline the flow of migrants from Mexico but have merely continued vague negotiations over drugs.

The White House request to Congress also asks for roughly $3.3 billion to speed the inflow of migrants. The number means that Biden’s deputies want to spend $4.00 importing additional migrants for every $1.00 spent on excluding drugs.

The result is more American deaths, including many deaths among the young Americans who are being sidelined by Biden’s flood of desperate and cheap illegal migrants.

The discards include many women who fall into prostitution:

A CNN poll in early August showed that 55 percent of U.S. voters say Congress should not send more aid to Ukraine. Forty-five percent support more funding.

The White House’s introduction to the August 11 funding request says the extra $800 million is needed for “ongoing efforts to reduce the influx of illicit drugs, such as fentanyl, across our borders and counter the threat these substances pose to our public health.”

The funding packages describe some of the useful — although late — programs.

This request would provide $350 million to the Department of Health and Human Services … to expand substance use prevention and treatment services given that fentanyl-related deaths have risen dramatically over the last three years.

The underemployed Immigration and Customs Enforcement agency would get “$27 million for efforts to counter fentanyl …. [and] $45 million would be used for counter-drug activities related to fentanyl including enhanced data analysis and equipment, as well as countertrafficking efforts.”

The request asks for “$323 million to the Procurement, Construction … to support the deployment of non-intrusive inspection technology for use in identifying and interdicting fentanyl and other illicit drugs.”

The document also asks for $21 million to “support DHS S&T funding for counter-fentanyl research and development, to be implemented in coordination with DHS components and law enforcement partners.”

“This request would provide $23 million to the Salaries and Expenses account within the Drug Enforcement Administration (DEA) in the Department of Justice, the request says.

Mexican Cartel Weapons Found on Border Along Texas Bank of Rio Grande

Schweizer: ‘You Cannot Separate the Biden Businesses from Joe Biden’s Political Position in Power’

Friday, during an appearance on FNC’s “Hannity,” New York Times best-selling author, Breitbart News senior contributor, and Government Accountability Institute president Peter Schweizer dismissed claims that the Biden families businesses could be separated from President Joe Biden’s past positions of power.

According to Schweizer, Hunter Biden’s Rosemont Seneca business was “centered around” his father’s position of power.

“I mean, look, really, from the beginning, Joe Biden is the center of all of this,” he said. “Think when Hunter starts this business, Rosemont Seneca, that does the deals in China, that gets him hooked up in Ukraine, he starts it in 2009, just months after his father becomes vice president of the United States, up until that point, Sean, he had been a lobbyist for entities in Delaware lobbying his own father. So the entire business enterprise was centered around his father’s elevation to the vice presidency, and then you look at the deals in China. Those deals get secured days after he shows up in China. Where? On Air Force Two with his father.”

“So you cannot separate the Biden businesses from Joe Biden’s political position in power, and the notion that he just shows up and shakes hands and that just leads these foreign nationals to throw money at Hunter is laughable,” Schweizer continued. “These foreign nationals are sending money to Joe, to Hunter Biden and the Biden family because they know it’s going to give them special access and possible favors with the vice president of the United States.”

Cruz: If Biden Is Guilty of Bribery, He Should Go to Prison

During an appearance on Fox News Channel’s “Hannity,” Sen. Ted Cruz (R-TX) laid out a scenario in which President Joe Biden would be guilty of bribery.

He said if that were the case, he should not only be impeached but prosecuted and sent to prison if found guilty.

Partial transcript as follows:

Legally, I see every single day the evidence is growing and growing and growing, and we’re also seeing — you just played a minute ago, Jake Tapper and Elizabeth Warren, neither the corporate media nor any congressional Democrat cares at all whether the president of the United States received millions of dollars of bribes from foreign nationals.

Even that little exchange there where Jake Tapper asked, well, gosh, you know, it was sort of influence peddling, and isn’t that bothersome? No, those are not the allegations, Jake. You’re a journalist, or you’re supposed to be. The allegations are bribery, that it wasn’t just Hunter selling access. It was Hunter selling official favors from his father Joe Biden.

Let’s go to what that FD-1023 specifically says the FBI form, a confidential human source that had been reliable previously to the FBI came forward and said that the oligarch who owns Burisma paid $5 million to Hunter Biden and $5 million to Joe Biden in exchange for Joe Biden’s help getting rid of the prosecutor that was investigating Burisma and investigating that oligarch.

Now, what is bribery? The essence of a bribery is a quid pro quo. We remember from the first Trump impeachment. The media, Jake knows what a quid pro quo is. He talked about it incessantly when it concerned Donald Trump.

Quid pro quo is Latin for this, for that. Bribery is paying someone something of value in an exchange for an official favor. Now, the quo we know happened because as you noted, Joe Biden has confessed to it in a video interview where he said he went to Ukraine. He held hostage a billion dollars in U.S. loan guarantees and demanded that the Ukrainian government fire the prosecutor that is investigating Burisma and investigating the oligarch.

We know the quo happened. The only question was, did the quid happen? Did they pay $10 million for him to do so? If so, Joe Biden is guilty of bribery. Hunter is guilty of selling bribes, selling official favors from his father. And if that is the case, Joe Biden should be impeached. He should be removed from office. He should be prosecuted, and he should go to prison, and he should share a cell with Hunter for corrupting the government of the United States.
