Are UC Officials Who Hire Illegal Aliens Subject to Criminal Prosecution?
By George Fishman, November 15, 2023
Excerpt: The statute of limitations for the federal crimes involved is five years. Thus, the next administration could bring prosecutions for all or most of UC’s hiring under the new policy, and as continuing employment is a continuing offence, there would be no statute of limitation issues at all regarding aliens still employed at UC.

Census Bureau: No End in Sight to Record-Breaking Immigration
By Jason Richwine
National Review, November 10, 2023
Excerpt: In 1910, in the midst of a high immigration period known as the Great Wave, the Census Bureau found that 14.7 percent of the U.S. population was foreign-born, close to the record of 14.8 percent set in 1890. The onset of World War I would soon lessen the flow, however, and restrictive legislation passed in the 1920s kept immigration low for the next four decades. The years 1890 and 1910 stood as the high-water marks of immigration in the U.S. — until now. According to the Center for Immigration Studies, the foreign-born share hit roughly 15 percent in August.

Mexican President AMLO Praises ‘Extraordinary’ Joe Biden for ‘Humane’ Catch and Release Policy at Border

Mexico’s President Andrés Manuel López Obrador (AMLO) called President Joe Biden an “extraordinary president” on Friday and praised the administration’s expansive Catch and Release network at the United States-Mexico border.

During a meeting between Biden and AMLO at the Asia-Pacific Economic Cooperation Conference in San Francisco, California, the Mexican president called Biden a “good man” who has been an “extraordinary president” for the U.S., according to the Associated Press.

Among the issues Biden and AMLO discussed was illegal immigration.

AMLO heaped more praise on Biden for the administration’s Catch and Release network that releases tens of thousands of border crossers and illegal aliens into American communities — rather than turning them back to Mexico — through a variety of programs.

According to AMLO, the policy is “a humane way to address the migration phenomenon.”

One of Biden’s programs to get border crossers and illegal aliens into the U.S. interior is a migrant mobile app where foreign nationals in Mexico can actually schedule appointments at the border to be released.

As Breitbart News reported this week, the migrant mobile app has helped free more than 350,000 foreign nationals into American communities since January of this year. This is a foreign population three times the size of Manchester, New Hampshire, twice the size of Santa Rosa, California, and approaching the size of Cleveland, Ohio.

In addition, thousands of border crossers and illegal aliens are released monthly into the U.S. interior through a parole pipeline opened by Biden.

The Department of Homeland Security (DHS) Inspector General (IG) estimates the agency is freeing more than 60,000 border crossers and illegal aliens into the U.S. interior every month. Over the course of a year, this indicates that Biden’s DHS is releasing into American communities over 720,000 border crossers and illegal aliens.

AMLO has previously applauded Biden. In January of this year, for example, AMLO told Biden “thank you” in regard to the administration’s halting all border wall construction.

Now we have, in Mexico, the sudden helicopter crash of a newly elected governor, after an apparently very bitter election.  Here's the Globe and Mail report:

A Mexican governor and her senator husband were killed on Monday in a helicopter crash near the city of Puebla in central Mexico, the government said, just days after she had taken office following a bitterly contested election.

Martha Erika Alonso, a senior opposition figure and governor of the state of Puebla, died with Rafael Moreno, a senator and former Puebla governor, when their Agusta helicopter came down on Monday afternoon shortly after take-off, the government said.

Open Borders Lobby: Americans Should ‘Open Up Their Homes’ to Illegal Aliens This Thanksgiving

In Massachusetts, where the first Thanksgiving is considered to have been celebrated, Americans are being urged by one of the nation’s leading open borders groups to “open up their homes” to border crossers and illegal aliens.

While tens of thousands of border crossers and illegal aliens continue flocking to the sanctuary state of Massachusetts — which now offers driver’s licenses to those in the United States illegally — Jewish Family Services is asking residents to consider bringing new arrivals into their homes.

“We’re asking people to open up their homes for three to seven days or two to three weeks, depending on what people are able to give,” Janelle Crumpton, with Jewish Family Services, told Spectrum News 1:

In addition, we’re asking for churches or any place that can offer congregate shelter, gymnasiums, that would be able to offer places for some of these clients that are arriving. [Emphasis added]

The request comes as the state of Massachusetts has reached capacity in terms of being able to house border crossers and illegal aliens, spurring Gov. Maura Healey (D) to declare a state of emergency in August.

Local public schools across Massachusetts have been forced to absorb large numbers of new arrivals who have little to no family ties and do not speak any English, causing immense strain on school systems, NBC 10 News reported:

But there has been a significant impact in the schools, where 35 new students have arrived in the last two months, few of them speaking English. [Emphasis added]

“It’s been a heavy lift for the public schools,” Superintendent John Antonucci told NBC 10 News. “We’re thrilled that they are here, and that they’re somewhere that we know they can be safe and supported. We welcome them with open arms into the North Attleborough public schools. But it has placed a significant strain on our resources for sure.” [Emphasis added]

The housing situation has been exacerbated so much by illegal immigration that Healey has started putting border crossers and illegal aliens in the state’s Department of Transportation building.

Meanwhile, in Massachusetts alone, more than 15,500 Americans remain homeless — many of whom are war veterans and families with young children.

Workers Building Chicago’s Migrant Tent Encampment Erect Screens so Work Cannot Be Seen

Construction of Chicago Mayor Brandon Johnson’s “tent encampment” for illegal border crossers is well underway, but city residents cannot tell by standing on the street outside the work site. That is because work crews covered the fences with a black screen so no one could see their progress.

Chicago’s sanctuary city policies are still in full force, even as legal residents are beginning to rebel against the whole idea, and Chicago’s self-described “progressive” mayor is diverting another $150 million in tax dollars to house, clothe, feed, and take care of tens of thousands of illegal border crossers.

One of Johnson’s more controversial moves has been his plans to build a huge tent city for migrants in a 6.5-acre empty lot on Chicago’s Southwest Side. It is set to house up to 1,400 illegal aliens, despite the fact that another cold Chicago winter is just around the corner.

Chicago’s WFLD-TV sent a crew to film the work site and to record some of the work going on, but within fifteen minutes of their arrival, work crews began to make filming of the site difficult.

First, a large Chicago Water Department truck was positioned near the fencing opposite the news camera crew’s position.

But that was not all. Next, workers showed up with black material that they then affixed to the fencing to prevent the prying eyes of Chicago residents from seeing what was being constructed with their tax dollars.

Resident Annette Cain decried the construction of the encampment that is being conducted despite the objections of residents.

“As a taxpayer, it makes me feel horrible,” Cain told WFLD. “They are not listening to the people.”

In another report, correspondent Kasey Chronis noted that workers put up the black screen, “seemingly so that no one from the outside could see in.”

The Johnson administration has signed a $29 million deal with Virginia-based GardaWorld Federal Services to build and manage the tent city. That cost is in addition to the newly diverted $150 million in city budget dollars.

Johnson has been stung by the reaction of the city’s black residents, many of whom are vowing to vote out every alderman who has approved the mayor’s sanctuary city policies and expenditures.

Only weeks ago, Southside residents organized to block the construction site, keeping work crews at bay for hours.

The protesters were so insistent that 12th Ward Alderwoman Julia Ramirez, who had journeyed to the site to talk to residents, was frightened and the Chicago Police had to spirit her away from the area.

Johnson announced the tent encampment plans early in September even as his wider shelter policies were being met with stiff resistance in nearly every case, especially since many of the facilities were planned and opened without notifying or involving the communities in which they were placed.

Most recently, residents of the mostly Hispanic Pilsen neighborhood organized a protest at a town hall meeting on October 3.

A poll taken the next week found that most Chicagoans want to end “sanctuary city” policies in the wake of the flood of illegal immigrants entering the city.

Report: Illegal Alien Accused of Stabbing Homeless Man to Death in Sanctuary City NYC

Immigration and Customs Enforcement
ICE

A teenage illegal alien is accused of a stabbing attack in the Lower East Side of Manhattan that ultimately left one homeless man dead, a report revealed Tuesday.

The 15-year-old illegal alien from Guatemala, who arrived in the sanctuary city of New York City after crossing the United States-Mexico border within the last year, has been arrested and charged with stabbing 25-year-old Alonzo Pasquale and 29-year-old Alonzo Lucas and ultimately killing Pasquale.

The teenage illegal alien, as well as the two men, had been living in a homeless camp inside Sara D. Roosevelt Park when the alleged attack occurred, according to the New York Post:

Witnesses told police the teen and the victims — two homeless men identified as Alonzo Pasquale, 25, and Alonzo Lucas, 29 — were at the encampment in the park, where some people were playing cards or “hanging out,” at around 11 p.m. on Nov. 16, according to Kenny. [Emphasis added]

An argument suddenly broke out and quickly turned physical, with witnesses claiming that they saw the teen fighting with Pasquale and swinging what later turned out to be a knife at him and Lucas, the chief said. [Emphasis added]

Police allege that the teenage illegal alien stabbed Pasquale, who then dropped to the ground, and when Lucas attempted to intervene in the attack, he was stabbed and then kicked in the head.

While Pasquale died from the stab wounds he suffered to his chest, Lucas is recovering at a nearby hospital.

New York City Police Department (NYPD) Chief of Detectives Joseph Kenny told local media that the Lower East Side park, as well as the area, has seen a surge in murders, robberies, felony assaults, and misdemeanor assaults — some of which have been carried out by newly arrived border crossers and illegal aliens.

Immigration.  Present levels of immigration will destroy our country.  And that's no longer a thinly shared belief, as polling demonstrates.  Is there anyone left who does not think that the border is wide open and a significant threat to our security, economy, and even America's prospects?  This was deliberate.  The only question remaining is why?  Was it to help Democrats or to help our enemies?  With an embattled and befuddled Biden, we honestly don't know the answer.

Lower wages

Because of inflation, most people are experiencing lower wages. Even if you received a raise, inflation means that you will be able to buy less with your paycheck. Today, everyone in America got a 3.16% pay cut. So it’s no surprise that Americans are having a hard time paying bills each month.

Homelessness

The U.S. is experiencing a growing homeless problem as well. The amount of chronic homelessness is climbing fast. Again, this is not because of the pandemic. They are homeless because they can’t pay their rent.

When people can’t pay rent and mortgages, they resort to living in tents on a street. During the Great Depression, a similar thing happened—people lived in massive homeless encampments called Hoovervilles, named after President Herbert Hoover. This is the very same thing. Joe Biden's policy creates homeless encampments. That’s Bidenomics!

So, think twice before voting for Biden in 2024. If you hope the situation will change for the better, it won’t. If Biden wins, the rich will continue to get richer, the poor will continue to get poorer.


Read this to your Democrat friends and family before you vote for Biden in 2024

The economy in the U.S. right now is dominated by three main things: slow growth, high inflation, and low unemployment—an unusual mix that confuses a lot of economists. (Typically, a period of slow growth comes with high unemployment.) Because of this, the best ways to tackle the economic problems are hotly debated.

The Biden administration has responded to this crisis with an approach they call “Bidenomics.” In June 2023, the White house released a memo where they’d tried to explain why it “works.” Let's summarize their approach.

Briefly speaking, Biden’s administration is promoting typical heavy tax and spending policies with a twist—it looks like “tax, spend, and borrow.” They raise people’s taxes, spend large amounts of government money, and borrow large amounts of money to pay for everything; this approach is to blame for a number of the economic problems with which we’re dealing.

Some people suggest the financial pain lingers because of the pandemic. But this is not true—Biden has been president for almost three years. The vast majority of us feel the negative impact of Bidenomics, with its key tenets listed below:

High Gas Prices

No, this is not the fault of the pandemic. In 2020, during the presidential debate, Biden stated his intentions to “transition away from the oil industry.” Promises made, promises kept, and now we are paying enormous amounts of money for gas. Supply and demand seems simple enough—limit a crucial product and the price goes up—but apparently it was too much for this woman to grasp, who blamed costs on the “religious right” Republicans:

Inflation

Gas is not the only thing going up in price. Food, housing, and everything else is becoming more expensive. Life itself is becoming unaffordable, and that comes down to the people in charge of monetary policy through a central bank. The late, great Milton Friedman explained it as such:

All that “emergency” spending for the pandemic never returned to normal—but it continues to climb higher. Biden's administration is borrowing money, causing inflation, and there’s absolutely no plan to pay it back.

Lower wages

Because of inflation, most people are experiencing lower wages. Even if you received a raise, inflation means that you will be able to buy less with your paycheck. Today, everyone in America got a 3.16% pay cut. So it’s no surprise that Americans are having a hard time paying bills each month.

Homelessness

The U.S. is experiencing a growing homeless problem as well. The amount of chronic homelessness is climbing fast. Again, this is not because of the pandemic. They are homeless because they can’t pay their rent.

When people cant pay rent and mortgages, they resort to living in tents on a street. During the Great Depression, a similar thing happened—people lived in massive homeless encampments called Hoovervilles, named after President Herbert Hoover. This is the very same thing. Joe Biden's policy creates homeless encampments. That’s Bidenomics!

So, think twice before voting for Biden in 2024. If you hope the situation will change for the better, it won’t. If Biden wins, the rich will continue to get richer, the poor will continue to get poorer.

Senate ‘Gang of Six’ Negotiates Republican Giveaway on Migration

Migrants who crossed the Rio Grande and entered the U.S. from Mexico are lined up for processing by U.S. Customs and Border Protection, Sept. 23, 2023, in Eagle Pass, Texas. U.S. authorities say illegal border crossings from Mexico fell 14% in October from a month earlier, following three months of …
AP Photo/Eric Gay

Roughly 30 Republican senators are backing the House’s H.R.2 migration stabilization bill — but a gang of six senators, including three Republicans, are drafting a giveaway “compromise” bill.

“H.R.2 should be the focus,” said a policy analyst who favors pro-American migration laws, adding:

There’s no reason to preemptively surrender good border security legislation before we’re forced to negotiate [with the House]. What the Senators who are supporting that [compromise] package are doing essentially is preemptively surrendering, preemptively giving away very important pieces of H.R. 2 before they’re even being forced to do so.

“They’re negotiating with themselves” instead of with Democrats, he added.

Sens. Lindsey Graham (R-SC), Thom Tillis (R-NC), and James Lankford (R-OK), are working with three Democrats to write a pretend compromise in the end-of-year budget battles over funding for Israel, Ukraine, and President Joe Biden’s border security agency, he said, adding that their plan is “not going do anything of any substance.”

The compromise legislation will likely be touted by Democrats and their media allies in January as they try to create a political stampede that will overpower Republicans’ popular demands for substantial policy change to migration laws, he said.

“Lankford is now working to turn a one-page summary of the party’s border plan into legislation,” Politico reported.


Behind closed doors, additional Republican senators are likely cooperating with the group of three.

The three Democrat-aligned senators in the group are Sen. Kyrsten Sinema (I-AZ), Sen. Chris Murphy (D-CT), and Sen. Michael Bennet (D-CO).

In 2013, Bennet joined with Graham to push the failed 2013 “Gang of Eight” amnesty that would have cut Americans’ wages for a decade or more.

The evidence so far is that the Gang of Six compromise includes few substantial changes in current laws, the immigration analyst said. It also appears to leave intact many of the alternative loopholes that Biden’s border deputies will use to keep importing millions of poor, desperate, indebted, and compliant migrants, he said.

But the 3o-plus cosponsors on the Senate’s version of the House bill H.R. 2 may block the stampede planned by the “Gang of Six.”

The Senate version of H.R.2 is S.2824, titled “Secure the Border Act of 2023.” It was introduced by Sen. Ted Cruz (R-TX). It includes most major stabilization measures sought by Republican-aligned experts and the public.

The H.R.2 bill is being pushed by nearly all of the GOP House caucus, led by House Speaker Mike Johnson (R-LA). “We’re going to force the issue — and people want us to,” Johnson said.

Johnson is in a good position to get immigration concessions from Democrats because President Joe Biden needs Republican approval for the funding that he wants to give to Israel and Ukraine.

Biden also needs a funding deal to help patch over the growing and unpopular cost of moving southern migrants into the jobs and homes needed by voters in blue cities, including New York and Chicago.

Also, Democrats are realizing that Biden’s reckless migration policy is deeply unpopular nationwide.

The 32 senators backing the stabilization bill include the Republicans’ mainstream wing, such as Sen. J.D. Vance (R-OH), Sen. Tom Cotton (R-AR), Sen. Chuck Grassley (R-IA), Sen. Josh Hawley (S-MO), Sen. Bill Hagerty (R-TN) and Sen. Marsha Blackburn (R-TN).

The bill is also backed by Republican establishment-linked leadership, including Sen. Mitch McConnell (R-KY), Sen. John Thune (R-SD), and even Graham, who was a leader of the 2013 “Gang of Eight” amnesty.

The bill is also backed by Sen. John Hoeven (R-ND), who drafted a last-minute, fake border-security compromise in 2013 that allowed the Gang of Eight’s amnesty bill to pass through the Senate.

The Republican bill is also backed by Sen. Kevin Cramer (R-ND). He is also pushing two other bills — including the Eagle Act — to allow a massive inflow of foreign workers for white-collar jobs and healthcare jobs that would otherwise go to North Dakota’s college graduates. One of his bills is backed by seven other Republican senators.

It is not clear how many of the 32 senators who support the stabilization bill have signed on for PR purposes. But at least two — Graham and Tillis — are working with Lankford and the Democrats on the compromise giveaway.

Meanwhile, multiple Democrat senators are denouncing any compromise related to asylum and other doorways, and various Latino groups claim to be boycotting the negotiations.

“We are alarmed and deeply concerned that key talks in Congress about border policies and the treatment of humanitarian migrants are happening without a single Hispanic lawmaker or ally in the room,” said Janet Murguía, president of UnidosUS told the Hill.

Biden’s economic policy of mass migration destabilizes the middle class and the economy by cutting wages, raising inflation, and spiking rents. It also crowds government aid programs, shrinks corporate investment in productivity, and diverts wages and jobs from Heartland states to coastal states and cities, such as New York.

The inflow is also spiking civic chaos, such as pro-Hamas marches and left-wing antisemitism.

But Biden’s policy is good for investors, banks, and CEOs who prefer low-cost, low-wage immigration because it helps them profit from low-productivity companies and their associated workforce of apartment-sharing, rent-spiking renters, and welfare-aided consumers.

The economic and civic damage is persuading more ordinary Americans to view migration as more of a burden than a benefit.


NYC Mayor Eric Adams Calls Biden’s Illegal Immigration Inflow ‘Unfair’ to Taxpayers amid More Budget Cuts

New York City Mayor Eric Adams (D) says President Joe Biden’s inflow of border crossers and illegal aliens, by the tens of thousands every month, is “unfair” to American taxpayers.

Since the spring of 2022, about 140,000 border crossers and illegal aliens have arrived in the sanctuary city of New York City — most after having been directly released into the United States interior by Biden’s Department of Homeland Security (DHS).

As a result of illegal immigration, Adams has already announced that New York City services will be cut by five percent across-the-board to deal with the rising cost of caring for and housing border crossers and illegal aliens which is expected to total $12 billion by the end of next year.

During a town hall in Coney Island, Brooklyn this week, Adams called illegal immigration “unfair” to “everyday taxpayers.”

“I want to pass a budget that adds cops, I want to pass a budget that allows us to have more after-school programs, senior care, and infrastructure building, that’s the budget I want. And so when people look at what’s happening in this city, we all are angry,” Adams said.

“And I tell people all the time when they stop me on the subway system, ‘Don’t yell at me, yell at DC, yell at DC.’ We deserve better as a city,” he continued.

On Tuesday, Adams announced more budget cuts, asking city officials to find $2.1 billion that they can cut but said he will spare police, fire, and sanitation services.

According to Adams, New York City has a whopping $7.1 billion budget shortfall because of illegal immigration over the last nearly two years. Adams, as well as other sanctuary city mayors, have pleaded with Biden for a $5 billion bailout but the White House has yet to make any such move.

NYC: Illegal Immigrant ‘Sanctuary’ Sees Homeless Population Surge as Busloads from Texas Continue to Arrive

New York City’s homeless population is surging thanks, in part, to the continued arrival of busloads of illegal immigrants from Texas being sent to the self-proclaimed “sanctuary.”

In the city’s Fiscal Year (FY) ending June 30, the homeless population increased 73%, rising from 46,675 in FY2022 to 80,724 in FY2023, according to statistics published last month in a financial report by the city’s comptroller.

“More than 22,000 asylum seekers applied for shelter through DHS as of April 2023,” the comptroller said in an August review of the city’s homeless situation, apparently counting all migrants as “asylum seekers.”

Last week, migrants set up camp in front of the mayor’s residence, to protest the time limit on how long they can live in one of the city’s shelters, regional network Spectrum News NY 1 reports:

“On Thursday, dozens of protestors set up tents and sleeping bags outside of Gracie Mansion, blasting the city’s recent restrictions on the length of time migrants can stay in shelters before they have to reapply for housing.”

The city currently has a 30-day shelter limit for adults and a 60-day limit for families.

In a September press release warning of the financial burden of actually having to be a sanctuary, Democrat New York City Mayor estimated that approximately 10,000 “asylum” seekers are “still arriving each month.”

The comptroller’s review says the city’s shelter system has been “overwhelmed” by the surge in immigration that began in 2022 when Texas – which was already being overwhelmed by illegal immigration – began busing immigrants to the “sanctuary” New York City had promised them:

“In October 2022, at the peak of the surge in migrants seeking asylum, DHS reported the highest-ever number of homeless people living within the shelter system.

“DHS stated that starting in April 2022, the State of Texas began sending buses of migrant asylum seekers to New York City. Buses arrived unannounced and unscheduled, and the people on them—most of whom had crossed into the United States via the southern border—were in need of shelter and care.

“By April 4, 2023, 22,002 asylum seeker households had applied for shelter through DHS. In response, the City opened 135 emergency sites between June 2022 and May 2023 for asylum seekers.

“The City shelter system was overwhelmed by this surge. The shelter population reached its highest-ever daily population by October 5, 2022, with over 61,000 people recorded. Although other City agencies have since stepped in to help shoulder part of this burden, the number of people in DHS shelters continued to grow. On March 1, 2023, the daily population in DHS shelters reached 70,848 people.”

On Friday, Republican Texas Governor Greg Abbott reported that his state has bused more than 22,800 migrants to New York City since August of 2022, as part of the multi-agency border security measure, Operation Lone Star.

To deal with the staggering cost of the immigrant surge, Mayor Adams has announced the city is reducing its number of police and making across-the-board budget cuts:

“[M]ake no mistake: Migrant costs are going up, tax revenue growth is slowing and COVID stimulus funding is drying up.”

New York City’s migrant crisis will cost nearly $11billion over two fiscal years and its FY2025 budget gap is expected to “surpass unprecedented $7 billion,” the mayor’s press release estimates.


Migrants Get Free Turkeys for Thanksgiving Ahead of Low-Income New Yorkers

Low-income New Yorkers living in public housing say newly arrived migrants have been first in line for free turkeys ahead of the Thanksgiving holiday, as public resources are strained from illegal immigration.

According to local reports and interviews, New Yorkers living in public housing are competing against tens of thousands of newly arrived migrants to New York City when it comes to meals this Thanksgiving.

“Why do we have to take the butt of everything,” New Yorker Georgia Butler told FOX5 New York in an interview. “This community is already suffering.”

“[The migrants] were first in line for the turkeys this morning,” Butler continued. “They tell you to be there at 11 o’clock. You get there at like 10:30, 10:45, but they are already out there. The line is from over there to over here.”

According to FOX5 New York, New Yorkers living in public housing have seen some 8,000 migrants move into their neighborhoods after having arrived at the United States-Mexico border and being released into the nation’s interior.

Already, low-income New Yorkers are dealing with strained resources. This week, city officials said they would offer $15 gift cards to those in public housing who have been forced to go without gas to cook meals for months.

In addition, Mayor Eric Adams has announced billions in budget cuts for New Yorkers after the city spent nearly $1.5 billion in just the last year on newly arrived migrants. By the end of next year, the city is projected to spend $12 billion on migrants.

Food Bank Demand Surges After Americans Hit with Inflation

The demand for local food banks is on the rise as soaring prices impact average Americans under President Joe Biden.

The increasing demand for food banks demonstrates how soaring inflation driven by “Bidenomics” negatively impacts lower income families.

“We are seeing unprecedented demand,” Jackie DeCarlo, chief executive of Manna Food Center, told the Washington Post on Monday.

Food bank demand rose dramatically in the last few months:

  • Manna Food Center provided food to 5,781 families in October, surpassing its monthly high during the pandemic.
  • Food for Others, another local food bank, distributed 30 percent more food in 2023 than in 2022. It serves about 200 to 250 people daily, according to communications coordinator Hannah Brockway.
  • Capital Area Food Bank distributed 31 percent more food since July 1, president and CEO Radha Muthiah said.

Soaring inflation impacted most Americas for years under Biden:

  • 32 percent of locals did not have enough to eat in 2023, compared to 33 percent in 2022, a report by Capital Area Food Bank found.

Many of those Americans are forced to look for alternative ways to feed their families.

Katherine Charles, a 40-year-old single mother, said Biden’s inflation made it more difficult for her to feed her family. Her young children “are at the age they are eating everything in front of them,” she told the Associated Press.

“My son loves red meat,” Charles added. “We cannot any longer afford it the way we used to. The economy’s not getting better for nobody, especially not for me.”

Associated Press-NORC Center for Public Affairs Research polling shows that about 75 percent of respondents said Biden’s economy is “poor,” while two-thirds said expenses spiked. Just one-quarter said their income rose to cover the extra costs.

Munro: DHS Chief Mayorkas Warns Agents Not to Misgender Border Crossers, but Ask Their Preferred Pronouns

Mayorkas has directed border guards to open the border to more than six million migrants since early 2021.

EAGLE PASS, Texas — More than 500 migrants in a single group stormed across the Rio Grande River into Eagle Pass, Texas, in a single group earlier this week. The group consisted of Venezuelan, Colombian, and Central American migrants.

Report: Majority of U.S. Adults Living Paycheck to Paycheck

The majority of U.S. adults are living paycheck to paycheck heading into this holiday season, a report shows.

LendingClub’s latest report shows that as of October, 60 percent of adults said they are living paycheck to paycheck. Around 40 percent of consumers consider themselves to be worse off now than in 2022. 

Even higher earners are struggling to get by, with 42 percent of those making six figures also living check-to-check under President Joe Biden.

According to a separate CNBC survey, the number of adults struggling to save between checks is up from 58 percent in March.

More than a third of consumers are planning to dip into their savings to cover holiday spending, LendingClub also found.


“While consumers have found a way to manage through inflation, it’s concerning that many plan to tap into savings, and even exceed their budgets, to finance their holiday purchases, which may leave them vulnerable to an unexpected emergency,” said Alia Dudum, LendingClub’s money expert.

The LendingClub report also revealed 43 percent of consumers who are living paycheck to paycheck and “struggling to pay bills” are planning to use credit for holiday shopping.

Consumers are steadily adopting the “mentality of hyper-consumption,” said Jacqueline Howard, head of money wellness at Ally financial services.

“Hyper-consumption comes from not being mindful,” she added. “Consider what makes the most sense in terms of your well-being.”

Even as credit card debt tops $1 trillion, nearly all shoppers will overspend their holiday budget, a TD Bank survey found. 

 

The report, released last week, revealed that 96 percent of over 2,000 responding shoppers said they expect to overspend this season.

“With economic concerns top of mind for consumers throughout the year, planning ahead can help prevent some of the financial stress that holiday shopping can place on them,” said Matt Boss, Head of Consumer Products at TD Bank. “Setting a holiday budget and sticking to it is the first step that shoppers can take to maintain their peace of mind this holiday season.”

The survey also found that members of Generation Z are “among the best budgeters of all this holiday season,” with 81 percent of Gen-Zers saying they are considering making a holiday budget this year to keep track of their finances, compared to 77 percent of Millennials and just 59 percent of Baby Boomers. 

“Gen-Z is also the most likely to plan for their season of giving, with [66 percent] citing that they set aside money year-round in anticipation of increased holiday spending,” the report added.


Exclusive: 500 Migrants Cross into Texas Border Town in Single Group

Nearly 500 migrants crossed the border into the small border town of Eagle Pass on Wednesday morning. The latest large migrant group crossing into Eagle Pass continues a trend of large single migrant group crossings in recent months.

The large group of mostly Venezuelan and Central American migrants attempted the crossing in one group near the heart of the downtown. The group managed to breach the existing concertina wire barriers installed by the State of Texas.

A source within U.S. Customs and Border Protection, not authorized to speak to the media, told Breitbart Texas the crossings are worrisome as the currents of the Rio Grande are flowing faster than normal. Water releases controlled by authorities with the International Boundary and Water Commission from the Amistad Dam in Del Rio, Texas, have raised the water level and contributed to increased water flow rates downriver in Eagle Pass in recent months.

As reported by Breitbart Texas, the crossings of large single migrant groups numbering nearly 500 or greater into the heart of the small border town have become a frequent occurrence in recent months. The increase has contributed to a rise in the number of migrant deaths caused by drownings due to the swift currents.

RELATED ARTICLES: 

Wednesday’s incident during the latest large migrant crossing has the potential to add to the number of migrant deaths reported by the Border Patrol’s Del Rio Sector because of the increase in migrant crossing activity in the region. The sector reported 15 migrant drownings in the area in the last seven weeks. Initial reports at the time of the crossing led law enforcement authorities to believe that the currents may have swept away some migrants. Those reports were dispelled after agents interviewed members of the large migrant group. It is believed that none drowned or were swept away, according to the source.

The migrants will be transported to a nearby Border Patrol processing facility. Once processed, the source says many will likely be released to pursue asylum claims within the United States. In October, according to CBP, more than 38,000 migrants were apprehended in the Del Rio Sector, the majority of whom crossed into Eagle Pass. The sector currently is the second busiest for migrant crossings into the United States nationwide.

The steady migrant releases of several thousand migrants in cities across the southwest border daily is being felt in large metropolitan sanctuary cities across the United States struggling to cope with hundreds of migrants in need of shelter arriving daily.
