THE DOCTRINE OF THE N.A.F.T.A. GLOBALIST DEMOCRATS IS TO SERVE THE BILLIONAIRE CLASS WITH ENDLESS WAVES OF INVADING 'CHEAP' LABOR SUBSIDIZED WITH WELFARE FUNDED BY TAXES ON MIDDLE AMERICA.
In many speeches, Mayorkas says he is building a mass migration system to deliver workers to wealthy employers and investors and “equity” to poor foreigners. The nation’s border laws are subordinate to elites’ opinion about “the values of our country,” Mayorkas claims.
Once again gasoline stockpiles are falling to alarmingly low levels ahead of the busiest driving season of the year. And that is the perfect recipe for a massive spike in prices over the next few weeks and months, experts say. The increases will come on top of the 20-cent rise in the cost of a gallon of gas seen over the past 30 days. The outlook is quite worrying considering that almost 60% of Americans are struggling to afford prices at the pump, according to a new poll. Production is way down and several factors are adding extra pressure to the oil market right now, signaling more trouble for U.S. businesses and consumers this summer.
Analysts are warning that U.S. motorists will face a repeat of last summer’s high gasoline prices because fuel stockpiles are heading towards multi-year lows ahead of the peak summer driving season that starts in a couple of months. Retail gasoline prices, now averaging $3.60 a gallon nationwide, hit a record $5.02 a gallon last June as crude oil prices jumped due to dwindling inventories.
In the past month, the cost of a gallon of gas rose on average by 20 cents, with some U.S. counties reporting a 36-cent increase, AAA data shows. At the same time, vehicle travel in the U.S. remains 5.6% higher than last year, which resulted in a drop in gasoline stockpiles for five straight weeks.
In fact, Reuters reports that last week's 6 million-barrel drawdown was the biggest since September 2021, leaving national gas inventories at 229.6 million barrels, their lowest for this time of the year since 2015, according to weekly government data. "We are in danger of going below 200 million barrels of gasoline storage for the first time in many years," stressed Robert Yawger, director of energy futures at Mizuho.
On Monday, the U.S. price of oil rose 6 percent, after OPEC announced plans to sharply cut production starting in May. The organization informed that it will slash oil production by more than a million barrels a day starting next month, a move that experts say could seriously impact gas prices in the U.S. To make things even more complicated, in March, U.S. oil production plummeted as a result of the banking crisis and concerns about an economic recession that would reduce fuel demand.
All of these factors are weighing on the outlook for prices this summer. GasBuddy forecasted that the production slowdown would cause oil prices to rise by $6 a barrel. At the pump, this could be translated into another 20-cent rise per gallon next week. On the same note, Peter McNally, an industrial materials and energy expert for Third Bridge, predicts a steeper increase, closer to 30 cents per gallon. They’re right, gas prices could reach $4 a gallon before the end of April.
Given that demand increased slightly from 9.15 to 9.3 million barrels a day, according to new data from the Energy Information Administration, this means that we’re only holding 21 days of supply on our domestic reserves. That’s extremely tight.
Meanwhile, Americans are doing what they can to get by, and that often means cutting back on spending. The latest Monmouth University Poll, released last Thursday, found that a majority (or 58%) say it’s difficult to afford gas right now. Since December, the number of people who have had difficulty paying for gasoline has increased by 10 points, the poll results showed. This supply and demand imbalance is going to hit crisis levels this summer and you shouldn't be surprised if fuel shortages came back too, turning the outlook from worrying to downright terrifying in a few short months.

(CNSNews.com) - President Joe Biden addressed the Irish Parliament today, where he informed them that he would rather have his children playing rugby than football.
Biden’s son, Hunter, was with him in the chamber of the Irish Parliament during the speech.
“I didn’t play rugby except when I was out of school—out of law school—and I didn’t play it very well,” Biden told the Irish Parliament. “We played in a rugby club.
“But I did play American football and a few other sports,” said Biden.
“But I realize: You know, you guys are all nuts,” he said.
“You know, but the interesting thing is: I would rather have my children playing rugby now for health reasons than I would have them playing football,” said Biden. “Fewer people get hurt playing rugby, and you have no equipment, you have 280-pound guys like we do, and you just don’t hit each other in the head very often.”
Hunter Biden and Associates Sought Irish Investments in 2011 Through U.S. Ambassador
Hunter Biden and his family’s business associates sought to invest in Irish businesses while President Joe Biden was vice president in 2011.
On March 8, 2011, Eric Schwerin, the family’s top financial lieutenant, Hunter, and Devon Archer, another top associate, conversed over email about the potential of investing in Ireland, according to emails revealed by Fox News.
After listing several projects in the pipeline, Archer suggested the group follow up on business ideas located in Ireland. “Ideas we could follow-up on,” Archer wrote. “Ireland- ask for intro through Rooney.”
Dan Rooney was the U.S. ambassador to Ireland. He was appointed by Obama to the post in 2009.
Schwerin replied that he could set a meeting with Rooney in Washington, DC, during the St. Patrick’s Day celebration. “Ireland – I assume there may be some opportunities to informally connect to Rooney, et. al. at the St. Patrick’s Day stuff next week and then formally follow up afterwards?”
Archer also joked the pitch could be made with a mashup video of comments by Tom Cruise and Charlie Sheen. “We should use this in our pitch,” he said.
According to a 2020 Senate report, Hunter scheduled a trip to Dublin, Ireland two years later on March 20, 2013, to March 22, 2013. During the trip, he was enrolled as a protectee and received armed protection from the Secret Service, the report states.
It is unclear if any business deals were ever consummated with an Irish entity.
The recent email revelations come as Republican lawmakers have raised concerns about Hunter’s return this week with Joe Biden to Ireland.
“I’m sure he’ll make another corrupt deal using his daddy’s name and make sure he kicks back 10% for ‘the big guy,’” Rep. Eli Crane (R-AZ) told Breitbart News on Thursday. “The fact that Hunter is still walking the streets as a free man, instead of being locked behind bars, is the most illuminating example of the two-tiered justice system we have here in the U.S.”
GOP House Conference Chair Elise Stefanik (R-NY) told Breitbart News that Hunter’s foreign business deals have compromised the president and are very concerning.
“Bringing his son Hunter on an official trip to Ireland and giving him access to Air Force One should concern every American,” she said. “House Republicans are shining a light on this corruption, and I am committed to ensuring that the entire Biden Crime Family is held accountable for compromising our national security.”
Biden departed the United States to Ireland on Tuesday with his sister, Valerie Biden Owens, and son, Hunter Biden. The family landed at Belfast Airport on Tuesday evening and met with British Prime Minister Rishi Sunak on Wednesday.
Speaking with reporters before the flight, Joe Biden said the trip to Ireland was scheduled for “making sure the Irish accords and the Windsor Agreement stay in place – keep the peace.” The trip coincides with the 1998 signing of the Good Friday Agreement that ended the conflict in Northern Ireland that lasted for about 30 years.
President Joe Biden’s border chief is expanding his migrant transfer camps in Panama, even as he says he will clamp down on the global migrants who are using those camps to help reach the United States.
“I don’t see any indication whatsoever this [migrant traffic in Panama] is stopping,” journalist Michael Yon told Breitbart News shortly after he visited the migrant camps in Panama that are being expanded by homeland secretary Alejandro Mayorkas:
They’re clearly expanding — today, just hours ago, I was in a camp just 300 meters from where I’m sitting, and they’ve got new buildings there and nobody’s slept on the bunks yet. These buildings house about 60 bunk beds each — that’s about 120 [sleepers] per building …
Some of these bunk beds are brand new. They still have the plastic on them. I was in the building today looking at them. And they’re still increasing [capacity]. They’re clearing land right over here, right behind the hotel I’m staying at … to put more buildings. We were in both camps today. They’re both at least twice as big as they were last year.
In 2022, Mayorkas provided taxpayer-funded aid, security, and buses to bring 250,000 migrants north after they crossed the Panama jungle on the border with South America. The migrants cross the deadly Darien Gap jungle trails after traveling from Colombia on boats protected by U.S.-funded Panamanian security forces.
“Right now, they are [moving north] about 1,200 [migrants per day] … or about 30 buses,” Yon added.
The daily traffic could deliver 430,000 migrants in 2023 into the homes and jobs that would otherwise go to ordinary Americans and their children.
Ben Bergquam, a journalist with Real America’s Voice (RAV-TV) News, reported on April 9 about Mayorkas’ migrant escalator:
Breitbart News asked Yon about the April 11 announcement threatening to stop the northward flow of Veneualans, Haitians, Ecuadoreans, Africans, and many other people trying to reach the U.S. border.
The news was delivered on April 11 in a Trilateral Joint Statement issued by Panama, its southern neighbor Columbia, and President Joe Biden’s zealously pro-migration border chief, Alejandro Mayorkas:
The three governments will seek to achieve the following ambitious goals:
End the illicit movement of people and goods through the Darién by both land and maritime corridors, which leads to death and exploitation of vulnerable people for significant profit.
Open new lawful and flexible pathways for tens of thousands of migrants and refugees as an alternative to irregular migration.
Mayorkas “is just lying — that’s all they do is lie,” Yon added. “They’re increasing the flow,” he added.
In many speeches, the Cuban-born Mayorkas says he is building a mass migration system to deliver workers to wealthy employers and investors and “equity” to poor foreigners. The nation’s border laws that protect ordinary Americans’ wages and wealth are subordinate to elite opinion about “the values of our country,” Mayorkas claims.
The secret taxpayer-funded transfer of illegal migrants into Americans’ homes and jobs is being run by Mayorkas and by Biden’s progressives. It is backed by Democratic politicians and is hidden by their establishment media allies. Rationally, migrants cheer for Biden over former President Donald Trump:
Mayorkas’ migration is a government-orchestrated invasion, said Yon.
That view — and the term “invasi0n”– is a mainstream American view. An August 2022 pollcommissioned by the left-of-center National Public Radio (NPR), revealed that 54 percent of Americans accept the “Invasion” view. That majority included 76 percent of Republicans, 46 percent of independents, and even 40 percent of Democrats
The Ipsos poll may understate the public’s view of Biden’s migration as an “invasion” because many respondents claimed ignorance or hid their views. For example, 36 percent of independents and 25 percent of Democrats said they “Don’t know” when asked about the invasion term.
But the Mayorkas flood of Venezuelans, Haitians, Ecuadorians, and others is overwhelming Mayorkas’ efforts to hide the chaotic mass migration at the border — and creating political risks for Biden’s 2024 campaign.
“There’s too many coming through [the Darien Gap] and they’re just piling up the [U.S.-Mexican] border,” said Todd Bensman, an investigator with the Center for Immigration Studies.
Mayorkas and his allies “want to get as many foreign nationals into the country as possible in the time that they have, but it’s going to cost them politically … so they don’t want [the migrants] to be seen,” Bensman told Breitbart News while he was a visit to Juarez, Mexico.
Mayorkas’ failure to hide the migration may be a 2024 problem for Biden and his campaign aides — but only if the GOP’s leaders make a populist, pocketbook wages-and-jobs pitch to swing voters, including the many U.S. college grads who have been replaced by Indian visa workers.
But donors oppose that pocketbook pitch. So far, GOP leaders only denounce migration to motivate base voters.
If the GOP really wants to stop the migration, Bensman said, they would fund the quick repatriation of migrants caught in Panama, Costa, Rica, or Mexico. “It would shut the whole thing down,” he said.
Instead, GOP politicians call for the border cartels to be declared terrorists.

GOP politicians are also silent about the many migrants who are killed on Mayorkas’ pathway. But GOP donors want more migrant consumers, renters, and workers, so GOP legislators do not try to shame the Democrats for the many deaths.
“There were two images of his treacherous journey north that he couldn’t get out of his head,” Albinson Linares from Telemundo.com wrote in January 2023 about a Venezuelan migrant named Johan Torres:
The first was how a [migrant] person who resisted a robbery in Mexico was killed with a machete; the other happened in the jungle, when he saw a man leave behind his young daughter, waist-deep in mud.
“He left her there, lying in the mud and crying. And I couldn’t do anything because I was dying of exhaustion. But I can’t forget that,” he said with tears in his eyes.
Bergquam recorded several migrants just after they were robbed and sexually assaulted on Mayorkas’ pathway to Texas:
Migrants who survive the trek to Mayorkas’ camp urge other people not to take the “hell” trip:
“This is just getting warmed up here,” Yon told Breitbart News, adding, “This right now is still a trickle compared to what’s going to happen.”
Meanwhile, he added, Republicans are doing little to stop the inflow. “I don’t see them doing anything substantial .. Nobody is really standing their ground on migration in a huge way.”
The migrant inflow has successfullyforced down Americans’ wages and alsoboosted rentsandhousing prices. The inflow has also pushed many native-born Americans out of careers in a wide variety of business sectors and contributed to therising death rateof poor Americans.

The lethal policy also sucks jobs and wealth from heartland states by subsidizing coastal investors with a flood of low-wage workers, high-occupancy renters, and government-aided consumers.
The population inflow also reduces the political clout of native-born Americans, because it allows elites to divorce themselves from the needs and interests of ordinary Americans.
Migration — and especially, labor migration — is unpopular among swing voters.
DHS UNDER BIDEN IS DEPT OF OPEN BORDERS AND CHEAP LABOR
Sen. Tom Cotton (R-AR), on Thursday, slammed Biden’s plan to open Obamacare and Medicaid rolls to illegal aliens, calling it “an insult to American citizenship.”
“Rewarding illegal immigration will bring more illegal immigration,” Cotton said.
Exclusive – Speaker Kevin McCarthy: Designate Cartels as Terrorist Groups, Time to ‘Embed Some Military’ on Border to Fight Them
Matthew Perdie / Breitbart News, Jack Knudsen / Breitbart News , Zenny Phuong / Breitbart News
House Speaker Kevin McCarthy told Breitbart News that it is time to “embed some military” on the U.S. border with Mexico to fight the Mexican drug cartels.
McCarthy’s comments came during an exclusive long-form video interview taped last month in the ceremonial U.S. House Speaker’s office just off the House floor. The interview, the latest installment in the Breitbart News On the Hill video series, touched on many topics including immigration and the border, but also confronting the Chinese Communist Party, the debt ceiling, and McCarthy’s decision to release January 6 surveillance tapes earlier this year.
Asked about the incident which happened just before this interview where four Americans were kidnapped by cartels in Mexico, McCarthy noted that “two were murdered” and “it wasn’t far from the border.”
McCarthy then affirmed he believes the Mexican drug cartels should be formally designated as foreign terrorist organizations by the U.S. government.
“I think you have to designate them,” McCarthy said when asked if the U.S. should designate the cartels as terrorist groups.
“We do not have operational control of our border,” McCarthy added. “For anyone in America that’s been down there — I want to give credit to Gov. Abbott. It shouldn’t be his job to secure the border. But he has to put effort into it. You look what has gone on. These cartels are making billions of dollars human trafficking, right? But they’re using weapons. They’re shooting. We’ve watched in broad daylight what they would do with not respect for life or for Americans.”
What’s more, asked about a proposal from former President Donald Trump to use the U.S. military to combat the cartels, McCarthy endorsed the idea broadly that the United States should “embed some military” so as to use Pentagon technology to fight the cartels.
“I’ve met with the border agents many times. I think we’re going to have to embed some military to allow that technology to help secure it,” McCarthy said.
While McCarthy did not specifically back a measure from Reps. Michael Waltz (R-FL) and Dan Crenshaw (R-TX) that would authorize the use of military force to fight the cartels in this interview, their proposal would implement the spirit of what he was saying here.
Waltz, in a separate interview with Breitbart News at the House GOP conference retreat in Orlando, Florida, noted that his and Crenshaw’s Authorization of the Use of Military Force (AUMF) against the cartels would free up U.S. military assets at the Pentagon like space assets including satellites as well as cyber assets to target and disrupt cartel operations.
“It essentially authorizes military resources,” Waltz said in that interview. “So, space assets for targeting. Your Border Patrol — our law enforcement and border entities don’t have their own space assets. The military does. Offensive cyber — as opposed to just defending our networks here at home, but actually getting inside somebody else’s networks and start disrupting their money, their logistics, their ability to communicate. That all sits inside the Defense Department. So, this would authorize the use — this would authorize the use of military force, but I think it’s more accurate to call it resources.”
Trump, for his part, in January released a policy video in which he explained that if elected president again he would treat the cartels just like the United States treated ISIS under his administration.
“Biden’s open border policies are a deadly betrayal of our nation,” Trump said then. “When I am president, it will be the policy of the United States to take down the cartels, just as we took down ISIS and the ISIS caliphate, and just as — unlike the situation we’re in today, we had a very, very strong border, the strongest border, in fact, in the history of our country, and drugs were at a low of 45 years. There’s been nothing like what we did, just two years ago.”
Waltz said his plan is gaining steam among House GOP colleagues and that he and other supporters have discussed with Democrats both in the House and Senate on how to proceed in passing measures, including this one, that would help the U.S. crack down on the cartels. While no Democrats have yet publicly endorsed the idea, Waltz predicted that some in the Democrat-controlled U.S. Senate would come on board eventually, especially as the cartels increase their brutality and violence in cases such as the incident where two of the four Americans they kidnapped were killed.
The fact that the U.S. House Speaker is now publicly endorsing the idea as well seems to make it more likely that eventually Congress — or at least the GOP-controlled U.S. House — could act on this front, even if Democrat President Joe Biden is sluggish or non-responsive to public outcry for action against the multibillion-dollar international criminal enterprises.
Mexican leaders have expressed outrage at the idea that American officials would take such a drastic step. Mexican President Andrés Manuel López Obrador expressed his clear opposition to the idea and even threatened to interfere in U.S. elections to help Democrats and oppose Republicans should the GOP succeed in championing such a proposal.
DHS Chief Mayorkas: Obamacare for DACA Illegal Aliens Now, Amnesty Next
Department of Homeland Security (DHS) Secretary Alejandro Mayorkas is applauding President Joe Biden’s move to open the Affordable Care Act, known as Obamacare, to hundreds of thousands of illegal aliens enrolled in the Deferred Action for Childhood Arrivals (DACA) program.
On Thursday, Biden announced that DACA illegal aliens will soon be eligible to secure taxpayer-subsidized healthcare benefits through Obamacare and Medicaid. In 2009, then-President Obama promised that Obamacare would not be open to illegal aliens.
Mayorkas said DHS “is committed to doing everything in our power to preserve and fortify DACA,” calling on Congress to next work on an amnesty plan that gives green cards and, eventually, naturalized American citizenship to DACA illegal aliens.
“We support President Biden’s efforts to expand health coverage to DACA recipients,” Mayorkas said in a statement:
I am proud to have put the DACA program in place as Director of United States Citizenship and Immigration Services in 2012. Over the past 11 years, DACA has provided over 800,000 young people with security in the only country many of them have ever known where they make significant contributions to their communities. We stand ready to work with Congress to provide permanent protection for DREAMers. [Emphasis added]
In February, Breitbart News reported that Sens. Dick Durbin (D-IL) and Lindsey Graham (R-SC) reintroduced their “DREAM Act” legislation to give green cards to about two million illegal aliens enrolled and eligible for DACA.
As Breitbart News reported in 2017, a DACA amnesty would open a surge of chain migration — where newly naturalized citizens can bring an unlimited number of foreign relatives to the U.S. — ranging from 10 million to 19 million foreign nationals.
A prior Breitbart News analysis found that a DACA amnesty would cost American taxpayers some $115 billion by opening Obamacare rolls to newly legalized illegal aliens. Meanwhile, the Congressional Budget Office (CBO) has estimated that such an amnesty would cost taxpayers $26 billion.
That same CBO report suggested that about 1-in-5 DACA illegal aliens, after an amnesty, would end up on food stamps, while at least 1-in-7 would go on Medicaid.
To date, more than a million illegal aliens have been enrolled in DACA, at one time or another, which shields them from arrest and deportation by the Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) agency. DACA was first implemented by the Obama administration in 2012 while Mayorkas headed the United States Citizenship and Immigration Services.
