BREAKING NEWS: Chip Roy Launches Impeachment Debate With Ruthless Assault On Biden's Borden Policies
Newsom defends Biden’s p residency: ‘Man of decency and character’
JOE BIDEN is known as a serial liar, a "public servant" who has somehow managed to accrue tremendous wealth, a race-baiting opportunist, a Catholic-in-name-only, and a bought-and-paid-for politician in bed with criminal cartels and foreign foes. In another era, Joe Biden would have been run out of his country much the same way Benedict Arnold was two and a half centuries ago; in an era when integrity, honor, fortitude, fidelity, and grit have been jettisoned for immorality, unscrupulousness, weakness, betrayal, and craven pliability, however, he is elevated to king sleazeball in a city drowning in sleaze.

Pentagon Says It Has $6.2B More for Ukraine After Accounting Error
The Pentagon announced Tuesday it miscalculated the value of U.S. military equipment it had taken from its stocks and given to Ukraine, and now has an extra $6.2 billion more in equipment it can send.
Deputy Pentagon Press Secretary Sabrina Singh announced at a press conference that in its “regular oversight” of its authority to transfer U.S. military equipment to Ukraine, “we discovered inconsistencies in equipment valuation for Ukraine.
She said that in a “significant number of cases,” the U.S. military services had used replacement costs for the transferred equipment rather than the net book value of the equipment, which ended up overestimating the value of the equipment provided to Ukraine.
“Once we discovered this misvaluation, the Comptroller reissued guidance on March 31st clarifying how to value equipment in line with the financial management regulation and DOD policy to ensure we use the most accurate of accounting methods,” Singh said.
She said the amount the DOD overestimated for fiscal year 2023 was $3.6 billion for fiscal year 2023 and $2.6 billion for fiscal year 2022, for a combined total of $6.2 billion.
Singh said the miscalculation did not affect any prior transfers to Ukraine, and that the Pentagon “retains the authority to utilize” the “recaptured” authority to transfer that amount of equipment.
The news that the Pentagon would pony up an extra $6.2 billion for Ukraine was met with outrage from the right and the left.
Nina Turner, a former Ohio state senator tweeted: “A $6.2 BILLION DOLLAR ACCOUNTING ERROR?!”
Joe Kent, a Republican candidate for a U.S. House of Representatives seat in Washington, tweeted: “This is absurd. The DOD cannot be allowed to operate like this. Make the DOD account for every penny, show congress & the American ppl exactly where our money is going.
“Secure our border w/spare 3 billion the DOD bean counters just ‘found,'” he added.
Prior to the accounting error, the Department of Defense had calculated that it has send more than $40.7 billion in security assistance to Ukraine since the beginning of the Biden administration, including more than $40 billion since Russia invaded Ukraine on February 24, 2022.
170K Migrants Apprehended in May at Southern Border Doubles Biden’s Inaugural Month
Border Patrol agents along the southwest border with Mexico apprehended nearly 170,000 migrants who crossed between ports of entry in May. While this is down from the more than 183,000 apprehended in April, it is more than double the 71,141 apprehensions in January 2021 — the month President Joe Biden took office.
Border Patrol agents in the nine southwest border sectors apprehended 169,244 migrants who crossed the border between ports of entry in May. This is down by less than eight percent from the 183,079 apprehended in April.
The apprehension numbers do not include an estimated 51,000 migrants who were classified as known got-aways, according to a CBP source not authorized to speak to the media. This brings the number of known migrant crossers to more than 220,000 migrants.
While the Biden administration credited the decrease in apprehensions to new border security and immigration policies, the number is an increase of nearly 125 percent from the 75,316 migrant apprehensions in January 2021 — Joe Biden’s inaugural month.
“As a result of comprehensive planning and preparation efforts, there has been a significant reduction in encounters along the Southwest border since the return to full Title 8 immigration enforcement on May 12,” Senior Official Performing the Duties of CBP Commissioner Troy A. Miller said in a written statement rolling out the May numbers. “As we continue to execute our plans –including delivering strengthened consequences for those who cross unlawfully while expanding access to lawful pathways and processes– we will continue to monitor changes in encounter trends and adjust our response as necessary.”
CBP officials continue claiming to operate a “safe, orderly, and humane immigration system.
“CBP has been executing the Department’s comprehensive plan to secure our borders and build a safe, orderly, and humane immigration system,” CBP officials wrote in the statement releasing the May Southwest Land Border Encounters Report. However, the Biden administration’s appointed Border Patrol sector chiefs continue to tweet examples showing the process is anything but “safe, orderly, and humane,” Breitbart Texas reported.
CBP officials continue to blame the CDC’s Title 42 migrant expulsion program for the high numbers in May:
More than half of the U.S. Border Patrol’s encounters in May occurred prior to the lifting of the CDC’s Title 42 public health Order. From May 1 – 11, U.S. Border Patrol encountered 98,850 individuals between ports of entry along the Southwest border. After the termination of the order as of 11:59 pm ET on May 11 through the end of the month on May 31, U.S. Border Patrol’s encounters between ports of entry along the Southwest border were 70,394.
With four months to go in the current fiscal year, agents appended 1,410,801 migrants. This compares to the 1,442,862 migrants apprehended during the same period last year.
Single adult migrants accounted for 114,886 of the 169,244 migrants apprehended by Border Patrol agents in May (68 percent). So far this year, agents apprehended nearly one million single adult migrants who crossed between ports of entry.
Family units and single unaccompanied minors account for 44,900 and 9,458 apprehensions, respectively.
The apprehension of Chinese migrants at the southern border continues at a historic rate. During May, agents apprehended 2,769 Chinese migrants. This is more than the entire year totals for FY22 and FY21 combined (2,293). So far this fiscal year, agents apprehended 12,480 Chinese nationals along the southwest border with Mexico.
Migrants from Mexico and the Central American northern triangle countries of El Salvador, Guatemala, and Honduras accounted for 54,140 migrants in May. Another 23,154 came from Venezuela.

Viktor Orbán Accuses Soros Scion of Scheming to ‘Incite’ Another Migrant Crisis

Sony’s animated blockbuster Spider-Man: Across the Spider-Verse has released an ad in partnership with a George Soros-backed group whose goal is to import more cheap immigrant labor.
The American Immigration Council (AIC) is taking credit for the PSA — but instead of mentioning immigration, the Hollywood partnership is being marketed as a plea for “belonging,” with the goal of creating a “more welcoming nation.”
The Spider-Man tie-in consists of a 30-second video featuring characters from the hit sequel accompanied by a voice-over urging greater acceptance of others.
“It doesn’t take a superhero to bring forces together. We all have the power to reach out and help someone feel like they belong,” the narrator says.
Watch below:
Spider-Man is partnering with a group called Belonging Begins with Us, which is a project of AIC — the Soros-backed organization that is trying to flood the country with cheap labor by pushing for more immigration as well as amnesty for some illegal aliens.
Belonging Begins with Us works with the Ad Council to partner with prominent brands and entertainment titles in an attempt to push its soft message of “belonging” and “welcoming.”
“Belonging” has emerged as a key marketing buzzword for the AIC, which defines it as a “fundamental human need, and one that is linked to many of the most complex challenges of our time.” The organization has even published a study titled “The Belonging Barometer,” which calls for greater acceptance of “non-citizen immigrants” and other groups.
“The Americans who report being treated as ‘less than’ tend to be younger, first-generation or non-citizen immigrants, identify as non-Hispanic white, or identify as a gender minority,” the study concludes. “The range of demographic categories who reported being treated as ‘less than others.'”
The Hollywood push comes amid falling support for immigration, as the Biden administration’s open-border policies have resulted in an unprecedented tsunami of illegal border crossings.
As Breitbart News reported, a YouGov poll found a growing plurality of citizens alongside almost two out of three Republicans say immigration makes the nation “worse off.”
Spider-Verse 2, which is a Marvel Studios production, is poised to become one of the biggest movies of the summer. The sequel has so far grossed $225 million domestically and is in the midst of its global rollout.

Hungarian Prime Minister Viktor Orbán warned that the Soros empire, the reigns of which will be handed over to 37-year-old scion Alexander, is planning to “incite” another migrant crisis in Europe.
In his weekly radio appearance, Hungarian Prime Minister Viktor Orbán said according to 24.hu that he believed that the latest migrant relocation scheme from the European Union was a result of pressure from George Soros’ son Alex, who is set to take over the $25 billion financial empire.
Orbán, who has long maligned the mal-influence of the 92-year-old Hungarian billionaire in his country and elsewhere, warned that his heir may be more ruthless in achieving the goals of the ‘Open Society’ foundations owned by the family.
The EU migration deal, which was reached earlier this month, was opposed by Hungary and Poland, with both countries objecting to accepting migrants who entered other countries. Under the parameters of the plan, EU member states would either have to accept a number of relocated asylum-seekers per year or pay €20,000 for each migrant refused.
According to Orbán, the plan would see some 8,500 migrants forced onto Hungary, however, the populist leader has so far maintained that he has no intention of abiding by the diktats from Brussels.
The Hungarian leader said that he believed the reason why the deal was struck, seemingly out of nowhere, was as a result of a lobbying effort from Alex Soros, whom he said “dictates an even tougher pace” than his father and that Hungary should prepare for the Soros family to ” incite the migrants, and increase the pressure on Hungary’s southern border.”
“One could say that the Soros empire has struck back, something that’s been forced down the throats of the majority of Europeans,” Mr Orbán said.
On Monday, George Soros announced that he would be handing over the reins of his empire to his son, 37-year-old Alexander “Alex” Sorors. For his part, Alex Soros has claimed to be “more political” than his globalist financier father.
In an interview this week with the Wall Street Journal, Soros said that he would continue to pursue hard-left policies on issues such as abortion, voting, and gender equality.
Following the announcement of the handover, Orbán was quick to respond, posting a gif on his Twitter account from The Godfather, showing Vito Corleone kissing his son Micheal, along which the Hungarian leader wrote: “Soros 2.0”.
In his Friday radio appearance, Orbán went on to accuse George Soros of acting as a “war speculator” and trying to stymie attempts from figures such as himself to peacefully negotiate an end to the war in Ukraine.
This was the reason why the Soros family, he claimed, is attacking former U.S. President Donald Trump “with all its means,” given Trump’s persistent calls for peace talks between Moscow and Kyiv.
“The pro-war camp [is] attacking with full force. That’s what you get nowadays if you’re on the side of peace. Keep on fighting, Mr. President! The world needs you, the world needs peace,” Orban said to Mr Trump on Friday following the latest arrest of the former president.
