AG Brnovich: Arizona Can Defend Itself from ‘Invasion’ by Cartels
Arizona Attorney General Mark Brnovich determined that the crimes committed by transnational cartels at the southern border constitute an “invasion,” which Arizona can defend itself from, according to a legal opinion issued on Monday.
The violence and lawlessness at the border caused by transnational cartels and gangs satisfies the definition of an “invasion” under the U.S. Constitution, and Arizona therefore has the power to defend itself from this invasion under the Governor’s authority as Commander-in-Chief. An actual invasion permits the State to engage in defensive actions within its own territory at or near its border.
Brnovich’s opinion argued the definition of “actually invaded” includes actions by “hostile non-state actors” and is not limited to hostile actions by foreign states.
Furthermore, the commonly understood meaning at the time of the word “invade” covers the activities of the transnational cartels and gangs at the border—they enter Arizona “in [a] hostile manner”; they “enter as an enemy, with a view to … plunder”; they “attack,” “assail,” and “assault”; and they “infringe,” “encroach on,” and “violate” Arizona.
His opinion relied on two constitutional clauses: Article I’s State Self-Defense Clause and Article IV’s Invasion Clause. The State-Self Defense Clause allows states to “engage in war” when “actually invaded, or in such imminent danger as will not admit of delay” without Congress’s approval. The Invasion Clause states the federal government “shall protect each [state] against invasion.”
Brnovich cited cartel involvement in drug smuggling, sex and human trafficking, and border violence as proof of the invasion at the southern border. “In 2021, the Cochise County Sheriff’s Office encountered 43,229 unauthorized aliens and 51 drug smugglers,” he wrote.
The Arizona Attorney General bolstered his argument with a quote from James Madison, who cited “Virginia using its militia to stop smugglers as an example of a valid exercise of the invasion power.”
“The principal activity of transnational cartels and gangs at the border is to smuggle people and drugs for profit,” he wrote. “Indeed, using the state militia to suppress smugglers was Madison’s paradigmatic example of a justified and Constitutional use of the state militia.”
Former Director Russ Vought of the White House Office of Management—a Cabinet-rank officer—and former Acting Deputy Secretary of the Department of Homeland Security (DHS) Ken Cuccinelli called on Arizona Governor Doug Ducey (R) to invoke the Invasion clause to secure Arizona’s border last October.
Republican Arizona state Rep. Jake Hoffman requested Brnovich’s legal opinion on whether cartel activity at the border constitutes an “invasion.”
Brnovich’s opinion made clear that the decision to act under these constitutional powers is left to Gov. Ducey.
Thus, while this Opinion has concluded that transnational cartel and gang activity in Arizona would meet the legal standard to justify exercise of the State’s power under the State Self-Defense Clause, only the Governor of the State of Arizona has the power to make a final determination that such exercise is justified.
After Brnovich issued his opinion, Cuccinelli again called on Ducey to invoke these powers. “Now we call on Gov. Doug Ducey to use this very clear legal and constitutional authority to protect the people of Arizona from the invasion they’re suffering through their southern border,” he told Fox News.
“It’s not enough for states like Texas, New Mexico, Arizona and California to complain about Joe Biden’s failure to do his job, they have the authority to protect themselves,” Cuccinelli added.
In response to Brnovich’s opinion, a Ducey spokesperson called out DHS Secretary Mayorkas and noted that the governor deployed the National Guard to the border.
DHS Secretary Mayorkas admitted himself the border is the worst it’s been in over 20 years. He needs to be held accountable. This administration needs to be held accountable. They have totally failed to address this very real public safety and humanitarian crisis,” said Ducey’s communications director CJ Karamargin. He continued:
Arizona has and will continue to protect our communities with our National Guard, our Border Strike Force and in partnership with local law enforcement. For Attorney General Brnovich to imply the Guard is not on our border does them a serious disservice and shows that he fails to appreciate the commitment these men and women have to protecting Arizona.
Immigration officials apprehended more than 1.7 million migrants in fiscal year 2021 and encountered 178,840 in December alone.
Other attorneys general from border states are yet to issue their own analysis on this issue.
When Biden took up residence in the White House in January 2021, President Trump gifted him an inflation rate of just 1.6%. This was when Covid-19 restrictions were still imposed, causing businesses to either be closed or operate with restrictions. The current numbers are more troubling considering restrictions across the US have been eased.
To sum it up, in just one year, Biden managed to increase the overall rate of price increase by almost five times. But beyond the figures and statistics what really matters is the causes, impact and potential solutions.
We first look at the potential causes.
The primary contributing factors to inflation are a vast increase in the money supply through Federal Reserve purchase of federal debt instruments issued to cover deficit spending, soaring demands, and supply-chain crisis.
Driving the supply chain crisis are port bottlenecks, high transportation costs and a labor shortage. The reduction in the workforce has been caused by Covid-19, anti-vaccine/mask mandates, the closure of schools -- which compels parents to stay home -- and Covid19 unemployment benefits surpassing potential wages.
The Canadian trucker border blockade against the vaccine mandate will impact the transportation of goods and worsen the supply chain crisis. The movement could inspire US workers to conduct similar protests which will worsen the labor crisis.
Also connected to inflation is the price of energy.
Back in January 2021, Biden shut down the Keystone Pipeline and imposed numerous restrictions on fracking. This ended the US energy independence that was created by President Trump and was one of the contributing factors for the US energy crisis.
The price of fuel has an impact on prices because the price of any consumer item includes the price of transportation.
Biden also waived sanctions on Nord Stream II, Russia's state-owned energy company subsidiary which increased European dependence on Russian gas. A war over Ukraine or sanctions on Russia will cause a further energy shortage resulting in global gas prices skyrocketing . Rumblings of war have further caused gas prices to rise.
The price of gasoline rose by an emphatic 40%. According to the Poynter Institute, the average price under President Trump was $2.50 per gallon however under Biden the average price rose to $3.47 per gallon.
In 2021, US vehicle owners paid $144 million more for gas per day under Biden than they did under President Trump.
The price of used cars is now up by 40.5%, while the price of new cars is up by 12.2%. The price of essential food items such as meat, fish, poultry, and eggs is up by 12.2% while the price of bread and cereals are up by 6.8%.
The average household spends $250 more per month, on groceries and gasoline which amounts to over $3000 a year. Consequently, owing to minimal pay-hikes, average workers have lost at least 1.9% of their take-home pay.
To sum it up, every activity such as eating, driving, and central heating at home saw the highest price spikes in decades resulting in a cut-down purchase of non-essential items and bulk purchases.
This obviously has contributed to the economic slowdown.
The Democrats frequently claim to be the party of the working class, the downtrodden, and the persecuted. Their inflation catastrophe has certainly hurt their base the most.
There were also huge losses in the stock market on Thursday as traders withdrew their investments.
Stocks were volatile throughout the day and finished deeply in the red amid speculations that the Federal Reserve would get more aggressive with its tightening policy to combat inflation.
How can Biden resolve the inflation crisis?
Firstly, the total removal of mask and vaccine mandates will help bring back the workforce. Secondly, Covid19 welfare payments must be made sparingly only to those in real need. Thirdly, a resumption of the Keystone pipeline will improve the energy situation and bring down gasoline prices. Fourthly, a drastic cut to gratuitous government spending. Finally, a moratorium on irresponsible utterances of war with Russia.
“On higher prices, we have been using every tool at our disposal, and while today is a reminder that Americans' budgets are being stretched in ways that create real stress at the kitchen table, there are also signs that we will make it through this challenge."
A citizen looking towards the president for hope would be thoroughly disappointed. There were no specifics to explain the cause or prescription for a solution but merely ramblings.
Biden’s record isn’t very inspiring. Last December he claimed that the 6.8% inflation through November was the “peak” of this crisis and matters would improve, but now matters are much worse.
That disappointment showed in a recent Politico/Morning Consult poll. The voters ranked the economy as their No. 1 issue. Among these voters, an overwhelming 73% said the US is on the wrong track under Biden. Biden’s approval rating is below 40% and is rapidly sinking.
Apart from empty words, has there been any reaction from the Biden administration?
They are still busy repackaging his rejected ideas from Build Back Better which will increase government spending on intangible endeavors
In conclusion, the Biden administration is almost like an obscene parody of a government clueless about how they caused catastrophes and even more clueless about how to resolve them.
This has even caused skeptics to wonder if it is all being done on purpose to ruin the nation and rebuild it as a welfare state.
Irrespective of the motives, this has caused the future of the country to be similar to a kite dancing in a hurricane.Photo credit:
A majority of Americans disapprove of President Joe Biden’s job performance, as most also deem his first year a “failure,” a CNN poll released Thursday revealed.
“Nearly 6 in 10 Americans disapprove of how Joe Biden is handling his presidency, with most of that group saying there’s literally nothing Biden has done since taking office that they approve of,” CNN detailed.
The latest survey, taken January 10-February 6, 2022, shows 58 percent disapproving of Biden’s job performance, compared to 41 percent who approve.That reflects a seven-point increase in the number who disapproved from the last survey, taken in December 2021.
The past surveys, fielded in March, April, August, September, October, November, and December, show Biden’s approval sinking and his disapproval continually rising.
From March 2021 to February 2022, Biden’s approval has tanked ten percentage points. In that same time frame, Biden’s disapproval rose 17 percentage points, as his disapproval stood at 41 percent in March 2021.

Currently, 41 percent of Americans “strongly” disapprove of Biden, compared to 15 percent who “strongly” approve.
Further, Biden’s approval among independents is underwater, as 64 percent disapprove, compared to 36 percent who approve. As likely predicted, Biden’s disapproval is staggeringly high among Republicans: 91 percent disapprove. While Biden enjoys an 83 percent approval from Democrats, that still represents an 11-point drop from the 94 percent of Democrats who approved last summer.
According to CNN, “Some of the shift in Biden’s numbers comes from a change in Americans’ partisan tilt: Republicans and Democrats were about at parity in the new poll, with fewer identifying as Democrats than in other recent CNN polling.”
According to the outlet:
When those who disapproved of Biden’s overall performance were asked to name a single thing he’d done that they did approved of, 56% had nothing positive to say. “I’m hard pressed to think of a single thing he has done that benefits the country,” wrote one survey respondent.
Of those who generally approved of Biden, a smaller 26% couldn’t find anything negative to say. “I totally believe that he has the best interests of the American [p]eople in mind,” wrote another respondent. “I think he understands the severity and importance of his job and is doing the best he can.”
The survey also asked respondents to rate Biden’s first year in office as a success or failure. A majority, 57 percent, said it has been a “failure,” compared to 41 percent who deem it a “success.”

The public’s disapproval of Biden’s handling of the economy is contributing to these souring figures, as 62 percent disapprove, compared to 37 percent who approve. That reflects a drastic change, as a majority approved of his handling of the economy in September.
The survey coincides with devastating news for Biden from the Department of Labor, which found that consumer prices have “jumped by the most” in nearly 40 years, up 7.5 percent.
The poll, with 1,527 respondents, has a margin of error of +/- 3.3 percent.
CNN Poll: Americans Rank Biden’s Open Border Among Top Problems this Year
American adults say illegal immigration at the United States border under President Joe Biden is among the top problems facing the nation this year, a CNN poll reveals.
The poll, released on Thursday, reveals that Americans — including swing voters — consider securing the U.S. border the third most important problem that Congress and Biden should address this year.
The issue of illegal immigration at the border ranks behind reducing inflation and protecting voting rights for American citizens.
Department of Homeland Security (DHS) Secretary Alejandro Mayorkas agreed, in a closed-door meeting last month, that illegal immigration is “worse now than … ever.”
Among registered Republicans and self-described conservatives, illegal immigration at the border is the top priority that Congress and Biden must address. Democrats and those who “lean Democrat,” in contrast, consider illegal immigration their last concern.
White working class Americans, those without a college degree, consider illegal immigration at the border and reducing inflation the two biggest problems facing the nation at the moment.
Non-college-educated Americans, of all races, see illegal immigration as the second highest priority just behind reducing inflation.

The poll is only the latest that suggests Americans, by and large, take issue with Biden’s massive expansion of Catch and Release at the border, a policy that has released hundreds of thousands of illegal aliens into the U.S. interior and incentivized nearly two million border crossers last year alone.
Most of those released into the U.S. interior can apply for work permits.
Biden’s operation includes using American taxpayer money to bus and fly border crossers and illegal aliens into American communities — with destinations including Florida, Pennsylvania, New York, South Carolina, and other states.
The Catch and Release initiative has been paired with Biden’s gutting of interior immigration enforcement via so-called “sanctuary country” orders that ban federal immigration agents from arresting and deporting most of the nation’s 11 to 22 million illegal aliens.
Most recent data published by Breitbart News shows that Biden cut deportations of illegal aliens by more than 85 percent in his first eight months as president. Compared to 2019, Biden has cut deportations by nearly 90 percent.
The CNN poll was conducted from January 10 to Feburary 8, 2022, and surveyed more than 1,500 American adults. The margin of error is +/- 3.3 percentage points.
