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.
Few things are as enjoyable as watching one’s political opponents wrestle on the horns of a dilemma. Today’s Democrats are trying to reconcile a seriously unpopular incumbent president who’s intending to seek re-election with the threat of their sworn arch-enemy regaining his grip on the reins of power.
Further complicating this dilemma is the palpable lack of talent available for the Dems to put in Biden’s place. Perhaps their most attractive possibility is California’s Governor “Hair Gel.” He’s been out there getting plenty of face time, but he doesn’t have much of a record of success — other than chasing away significant components of his state’s tax base. It is just becoming noticed that California has budgeted to spend tens of billions more than it has collected. What remains under the radar is the juicy tidbit that Newsom’s ex-wife is seriously shacked up with Donald Trump, Jr. Should make for some interesting moments in the Trump war room once the battles begin.
Though she may be tan and rested, Hillary doesn’t budge the meter. Speaking of former presidential spouses, there’s lingering buzz about Michelle Obama entering the fray. The pooh-poohers claim she’s way too happy just where she is at Mahthah’s Vinyahd. But ambition can do strange things.
The other horn of the dilemma has to do with figuring out an elegant way of getting Biden to retire. It is frequently speculated that the recent package of indictments heaped on First Son Hunter is a not so subtle attempt at this objective — hardly elegant but possibly effective.
Biden’s success thus far has to do with his willingness to be a good puppet. This may protect him from the covert movement to push him out of the way. Those pulling his strings would likely not have as much control over anybody else. However, he would first need to get re-elected — and the more the Democrats try to damage Trump, the more Trump rises in the polls.
This would be a delight to watch — except that the destiny of all the USA is hanging in the balance. The election is still more than ten months away, an eternity in politics. This may allow enough time for some “dark horse” to emerge as a credible Trump-beater, but time is running out.
Were I a gambler, I would still bet on Biden being the nominee. Along with that, Trump would face an increasing mountain of legal challenges — and still win in a landslide, which will include Congress as well. What is also not mentioned much is that only ten Republican senators are going to be up for re-election. This can only mean that the Democrats have enormous exposure in a year where they face extraordinary challenges for a multitude of reasons.
And this just in: Biden just bent some rules in order to ship some crucial munitions to Israel. Working on the Jewish vote? Maybe...more likely Jewish campaign contributions. All this as Democrats, in general, are offering up Jews for genocide. Strange bedfellows, indeed.
Wait...what’s this? Incoming call from Vladimir Putin’s office. Their food-taster just checked out on medical leave and they need a replacement. “Sorry, I’m booked.”
An official from Long Island, New York, says “organized gangs” are making their way through the United States-Mexico border on President Joe Biden’s watch and exacerbating crime in many American communities.

President Joe Biden rubbed elbows with Hollywood elites at a ritzy Los Angeles fundraiser Friday evening. But outside, leftist pro-Palestinian activists upstaged the event by voicing their vehement opposition to Biden and his stance on the unfolding war between Israel and Hamas.
Video footage of the demonstration showed protestors waving Palestinian flags and chanting “from the river to the sea” — a call for wiping Israel and Israelis off the face of the Earth. Others carried signs reading “LA Says No to Genocide Joe” and “End All U.S. Aid to Israel.”
Watch below:
The protest took place in the exclusive Holmby Hills neighborhood, where Biden was wining and dining with Hollywood elites at the home of designer Michael Smith and former ambassador to Spain James Costos.
Among the scheduled attendees were Steven Spielberg, Rob Reiner, Shona Rhimes, and Lenny Kravitz, who was on the program to perform for the guests. Also on the list were Former House Speaker Nancy Pelosi, California Gov. Gavin Newsom, and Rep. Adam Schiff (D-CA).
L.A. Mayor Karen Bass (D) was also reportedly in attendance.
L.A. Police Department officials sent out a cryptic advisory on Friday warning of possible “First Amendment” activities.
As he ramps up his 2024 re-election campaign, Biden is seeing widespread defection from young, woke Democrats who oppose his stance on Israel and its military response to the October 7 massacre carried out by the Hamas terrorist organization.
As Breitbart News reported, Muslim American leaders from swing states have launched the #AbandonBiden campaign, vowing to defeat Biden in 2024 due to his unwillingness to call for a ceasefire in the Israel-Hamas war.
A recent NBC News poll showed a stunning 70 percent of voters ages 18 to 34 disapprove of Biden’s handling of the war.
Biden’s approval numbers recently hit a record low, with his approval rating in November cratering to 37 percent, down two points since October and the lowest since he assumed office in 2021.
On Friday’s “PBS NewsHour,” New York Times columnist David Brooks argued that “Democrats should hop on as much as they possibly can” to Republican proposals on changes to border policy, not only “because the border is a genuine national crisis” but also because it’s the biggest political liability Democrats have, so if a deal can be made “I think that the Democrats would be very smart to say, we and the Republicans take co-ownership of the border right now.”
Brooks stated that linking the border and Ukraine makes sense. He added, “I do think the Republicans have thrown a bunch of different ideas on the table for what they want on the southern border, adjusting the asylum rules, E-Verify, all sorts of proposals. And I think the Democrats should hop on as much as they possibly can, because the border is a genuine national crisis. It’s also their biggest — the Democrats’ biggest political liability. And so, if there’s any possibility for a deal, I think that the Democrats would be very smart to say, we and the Republicans take co-ownership of the border right now. Because, otherwise, it’s very perilous for Joe Biden’s re-election chances.”
President Joe Biden’s approval rating has fallen to the lowest level since taking office, the latest TIPP poll found.
Biden’s approval now sits at 33 percent, reflecting a six-point drop from November 3 in this survey. That is a new low for the 81-year-old since he took office. His disapproval now sits at 55 percent, reflecting a three-point increase over the same time frame.
Further, 19 percent of Democrats disapprove of Biden, as do 86 percent of Republicans. Most independents disapprove of Biden as well — 64 percent. Just 21 percent approve.
Notably, 25 percent of liberals and 56 percent of moderates also disapprove of Biden.
This portion of the survey was taken November 29 to December 1 among 1,464 adults. It has a +/- 2.6 percent margin of error.
Biden also sees dismal ratings on the economy, as 55 percent, overall, view the economy as poor or failing. Most independents, 63 percent, feel the same way. Another 56 percent overall view Biden’s handling of immigration and border security as poor or failing, and 54 percent are unhappy with his handling of crime. That includes a majority of independents as well.

Biden’s abysmal approval ratings have been a long time coming. A Gallup poll released in October, for instance, found Biden’s approval sinking 11 percent among Democrats in the span of a month. The following month, in November, Biden’s support among independents fell to a record low of 27 percent, down from 35 percent in October.
Similarly, a November NBC News poll showed Biden’s approval tanking to the lowest level of his presidency in that survey as well, tumbling to 40 percent.

Further, a CNN poll found 67 percent of Americans disapproving of Biden’s economy, which is a top issue for voters as the 2024 election draws closer.
“Biden’s approval rating on the economy in November is the second lowest of his presidency,” Breitbart News reported.
Acting Labor Sec’y: ‘We’re Making Good Progress’ — Poor Economic Polls Partially Due to Feeling It’s Been Unfair
On Friday’s broadcast of “CNN News Central,” acting Labor Secretary Julie Su said that “we’re making good progress” on dealing with “the after-effects of the pandemic and the global economic stress that that induced” and part of the reason for poor views of the economy is “people feel like the economy has not been fair for too long.”
Su said, “So, when we talk to the American people about President Biden’s policies, do they want to see more manufacturing jobs in the U.S., do they believe that investments in infrastructure are important, should we be doing things to address the climate crisis? All of those are highly popular. At the same time, we are seeing unions get high positive ratings by the American public at the highest time in decades. So, I think some of this is a reflection of the after-effects of the pandemic and the global economic stress that that induced. People — we’re still coming back from that sense of insecurity, and we’re making good progress. But, to be frank, I think some of this is, people feel like the economy has not been fair for too long. That’s why the president says we have to build an economy from the middle-out and the bottom-up, in which everyone is included. … [I]f you look at the comparison between CEO pay and frontline worker pay, in 1970, CEO pay was something like 20 times higher, today, it’s 300-some times higher, and that feels unfair to people, it doesn’t make them feel good, and we’re doing everything we can to combat it, and I think when we succeed in that, it’s going to make people feel better.”
President Joe Biden’s request for $106 billion in emergency military aid to Ukraine and Israel includes a hidden magnet for more migration that would expose American communities to more poverty, drugs, and terror threats, say Republican senators.
“When we looked at this emergency supplemental … [we found it] continues to facilitate the mass migration that we see across our border,” Sen. Katie Britt (R-AL) told a December 7 press conference. “It was yet more of a magnet to draw more and more people here!”
“You can’t throw money at it” if you want to stop the migration, said Sen. John Thune (R-SD). “This requires changes in policy that change the signals that we’re sending to people who are coming across the border illegally, and the magnets that are out there that keep pulling them [across the border].”
Sen. Thom Tillis (R-NC) dismissed the Democrats’ $14 billion migrant magnet as merely “funding to address the symptoms” of Biden’s open border.
“The symptoms are a New York mayor saying it’s out of control [and] Chicago saying they’ve had too many people sleeping in tents and cold conditions. He [requested] money to address the symptoms. We’re here to fix the problem,” he said.

The senators held their December 7 press event to explain to Democrat-enthralled reporters why they voted on Thursday against the massive spending bill that included $14 billion for the border plus $92 billion in military aid for Israel, Ukraine, and Taiwan.
The event was also used to reassure the GOP’s 2024 voters that the GOP senators are not faking their opposition to the migrant spending and will not crack under relentless closed-door pressure from GOP donors, pro-migrant media, and ruthless Democrat senators.
But the GOP senators have a long history of “failure theater” — faking opposition while gradually allowing Democrats to win — that advocates will have to maintain pressure on the GOP for many months to beat, one advocate warned Breitbart News.
The GOP press event was also used to torpedo the White House’s media-echoed narrative that Republicans are recklessly endangering Ukraine and Israel by blocking the aid to win “radical” border changes for “petty” political reasons.
In reality, Democrats are holding the $90 billion in military aid hostage until they can get ten GOP senators to vote for their $14 billion magnet plan that would fly and bus more illegals into the United States.

The GOP senators would have voted en masse against the migrant magnet plan if Sen. Chuck Schumer (D-NY) had tried to pass it through the Senate without the military aid. “Giving the Biden Admin more money to fuel its disastrous open-borders resettlement operation is insanity,” Sen. Bill Hagerty (R-TN) said in October. “It would worsen the border crisis, not stop it,” he tweeted.
Democrats paired the magnet bill with the war funding because they needed ten votes from GOP senators to pass the magnet bill. They hoped to get those ten votes by delaying military aid for Israel and Ukraine until ten GOP senators switched sides.
That strategy reveals that Democrats view their magnet bill as a higher political priority than aid for Ukraine and Israel — contrary to their media-echoed narrative.
But the plan failed Thursday when all Republicans voted against the funding package.
“I care about Ukraine’s homeland Security; I care about Israel’s homeland security,” responded Tillis, one of the most pro-migration GOP senators and one of the four GOP senators negotiating a deal with Democrats. “But it would be immoral for me to put those two ahead of what I think is a clear and present threat to our homeland security.”
“I will not go back to South Carolina and try to explain why I helped Ukraine, Taiwan, and Israel and did nothing to secure our own border,” said Sen. Lindsey Graham (R-SC), who is the top GOP member of the Senate’s judiciary committee and usually a cheerleader for more migration. “I will help all of our allies, but we’ve got to help ourselves first,” he added.
In 2013 and 2014, Graham pushed the “Gang of Eight” amnesty bill that would have further flooded the U.S. labor market for at least ten years. But amid Biden’s migrant flood, he has suddenly moved to the center, and he used the press event to repeatedly slam Biden’s open-borders policy.
WATCH:
Republicans slammed Biden’s open-border policy as a deliberate policy choice that is bad for national security, drug deaths, terror threats, and pocketbook economics.
“The president is the enforcer of the laws,” said Sen. Chuck Grassley (R-IA), who holds the title of senator pro tempore of the U.S. Senate, putting him third in line to replace the president. Biden “has decided not to enforce these laws because he believes in an open border.”
“Republicans are dead serious about solving Biden’s border crisis as part of a national security debate that we’re having on the floor of the Senate right now,” said Thune, the GOP’s whip and the top deputy — and potential successor – to Sen. Mitch McConnell (R-KY).
“I’ve been to six different high schools where parents are grieving, having lost their child to fentanyl poisoning,” said Sen. John Cornyn (R-TX), who is another leading candidate to succeed McConnell.
Sen. Tom Cotton (R-AR) sketched the pocketbook cost to Americans, noting that Biden’s migration “puts strain on jobs and wages for American workers, for schools, hospital systems, and housing.” Cotton is an important voice because he is on the working group with Tillis that is trying to craft a deal with Biden’s deputies.
Outside the Senate, more establishment GOP figures are making a populist case against Biden’s mass migration. Citizens’ wages and wealth are shrinking, their credit card bills and rents are rising, and their adult children are less able to afford homes because Biden’s extraction migration policy skews the U.S. economy in favor of investors, CEOs, and migrants.
“Americans are being pushed aside for Biden’s illegal immigrants,” former House Speaker Newt Gingrich (R-GA) noted on December 6. “Parents and other citizens in communities being impoverished by the Biden illegal immigration policy should be invited to testify about the ways in which the Biden administration is making their lives more difficult.”
The GOP senators also showed the reporters that they understand the legal loopholes Biden’s deputies are using to import 12,000 illegal migrants per day. That inflow is greater than the daily number of U.S. births.
“We have 12,000 illegal migrants crossing every day because he abuses our asylum laws [and] because he extends parole to vast groups of people as opposed to [migrants on] a case-by-case basis,” said Cotton. “He could implement policies tomorrow that would not just substantially reduce but almost entirely stop the flow of illegal migrants … He has shown no willingness to stand up to the radical left in his party.”
A reporter asked what the GOP would trade for a deal, such as an amnesty. “Nothing, nothing [that would] incentivize more illegal migration,” Graham replied vehemently, adding, “Right now, legalizing people incentivizes [more] poor people to come … No legalization. Secure the border to get money for Ukraine, to get money for Israel, and to help Taiwan. Secure the border before we get attacked.”
Cornyn noted that the GOP gained leverage because Biden’s deputies linked the migrant magnet bill with the wartime funding:
President Biden has been unmoved to work with us to try to come up with a solution, but now we have found something that provides us the opportunity to force him to do something that they’ve been unwilling to do until this point. And we intend to do everything we can to make sure that these policies are put in place to stem the flow of illegal immigration in our country — along with all the other problems that go along with it.
Unwilling “Democrats have to change their [migrants welcome] messaging, or we will not survive as a nation,” Graham told another reporter:
Here’s what I tell my Democratic colleagues: “You want to please [the far-left progressive] people that literally want the border to stay open in an unlimited fashion [even though] 76 percent of Americans would like to see the border secure?”
[They ask] “How can I sell this to my caucus?” Here’s what you need to sell to your caucus: “On your watch, on the Biden administration’s watch, the largest amount of illegal crossing is occurring daily. We’re on track to 10 million illegal immigrants in the first four years of the Biden administration. The threats to the country to an all-time high.” What do you get? You get a secure nation if you work with us.
“It’s like pulling teeth talking to these [Democrat] guys,” Graham said.
A reporter told Graham that Sen. Chris Murphy (D-CT) had earlier described the border problem as a traffic jam that could be solved by more processing at the border. Graham replied:
These negotiations should end because he doesn’t understand [the migration crisis]. It is hard to fix a problem if he doesn’t understand what it’s all about. If he thinks 12,000 people are coming here because we’re under-resourced, that’s insane. They’re coming here because they believe once they get here they will never leave under Biden … It is about policy choice, not resources.
“None of us who are supportive of Ukraine, Israel, and Taiwan can vote on a supplemental because you’re making us pick countries abroad over our own homeland security,” said Graham. “Everybody behind me will vote for aid to Ukraine if we can get the border right.”
Biden’s economic policy of extraction migration has pulled at least four million foreign workers into the nation’s workplaces.
Business groups urge and welcome that flood because it cuts Americans’ blue-collar wages and white-collar salaries. It also reduces marketplace pressure to invest in productivity-boosting technology, heartland states, and overseas markets and reduces economic pressure on the federal government to deal with the drug and “Deaths of Despair” crises.
OE BIDEN - THERE IS NO GREATER ENEMY TO THE AMERICAN PEOPLE, AMERICA'S BORDERS AND AMERICAN DEMOCRACY. PUT THE FUKER IN PRISON, THROW AWAY THE KEYS!
We need to secure our borders to make sure that we know who is in this country …this is taking away resources that we desperately need to take care of our own citizens.[Emphasis added]
Joe Biden has instituted an “open border policy that has drawn millions into the United States by breaking the law,” Gingrich notes in his hard-hitting essay.
AND WHY NOT THE GUY WHO PUT MAYORKAS ON THE OPEN BORDERS DOCTRINE: JOE BIDEN!
As Department of Homeland Security (DHS) Secretary Alejandro Mayorkas continues to treat Congress and the American people with contempt, it’s far past time for the secretary to finally face some consequences for his actions.
Mayorkas narrowly escaped becoming the second cabinet official in U.S. history to be impeached when eight Republicans voted with all House Democrats last month to refer Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene’s impeachment resolution to the House Homeland Security Committee. Some members who voted against the impeachment resolution indicated that they would ultimately support impeaching Mayorkas, but would like to see a more thorough investigation completed before moving forward.
Mayorkas, like any cabinet official facing impeachment for high crimes and misdemeanors, of course, deserves due process. Yet, more than 10 months into the 118th Congress, and over a year since former Speaker of the House Kevin McCarthy vowed an impeachment inquiry was imminent, there has been no inquiry, and no timetable put forward for impeachment.
The case against Mayorkas is extensive and damning. Since he has been in charge of DHS, the department responsible for securing the U.S. border, millions of illegal aliens have crossed the border, shattering all the wrong records. Just Tuesday, 12,000 foreign nationals crossed into the U.S. illegally, hitting an all-time record for a single day. Mayorkas and other leading Biden administration officials have worked to systematically destroy America’s operational control over its border, while violating the Immigration and Nationality Act, and flagrantly disregarding their Constitutional responsibility to protect the U.S. from invasion. Mayorkas has demonized and demoralized Border Patrol agents, siding with anti-borders conspiracy theorists over his own agents.
He has put the national security of the U.S. at grave risk, allowing a record number of suspected terrorists to cross the border. Every step of the way, Mayorkas has prioritized his destructive anti-borders ideology over his responsibilities under the law. The case for his impeachment and removal is clear, but one person who doesn’t seem to be concerned is Mayorkas himself.
Anyone who pays attention to the comings and goings on Capitol Hill has seen Mayorkas strut around the Capitol with a smirk, while refusing to answer basic questions from members of Congress. The secretary has refused to provide members of Congress with data on the number of illegal aliens who have entered the country on his watch, including the number of those with ties to terrorist organizations. He has used Congressional testimony to engage in sparring matches with members of Congress attempting to perform oversight of his department.
All in all, Mayorkas acts like someone who believes he’s untouchable, someone who believes he will never be held accountable for his attacks on America’s sovereignty and its rule of law. It will be up to Congress to prove him wrong.
At the end of the day, Congress is the only institution that has the authority to hold Mayorkas and other Biden administration officials accountable for the crisis at the Southern border. There are two mechanisms through which Congress can enact accountability. One of them is impeachment and the other is through the power of the purse. So far in the 118th Congress, neither option has been used. This needs to change soon.
Two-thirds of the American people disapprove of the Biden administration’s handling of the border, according to a recent Fox News poll. Congress must act as the voice of the American people and begin holding Mayorkas and his cronies accountable for all the damage they have wrought. This starts – but does not end – with relegating Mayorkas to historical infamy by making him just the second cabinet official in U.S. history to be impeached.
Mayorkas and his allies will cry foul, and accuse Congress of using impeachment as a tool to express policy disagreements, but they will be wrong. Securing the border is not a matter of policy, but is the most essential responsibility the federal government holds. It is a requirement under both the Constitution and federal law. Congress cannot allow a precedent to be set that allows bad actors like Mayorkas to open up the border and then brush it aside as a typical policy disagreement. Impeachment is a messy process, but the alternative is doing nothing as the U.S. continues down the path of lawlessness and chaos.
After years of debate, tough talk, and hearings, it’s time for Congress to hold America’s worst cabinet secretary accountable. It’s time to impeach Alejandro Mayorkas.

Sen. Steve Daines (R-MT) says President Joe Biden is siphoning Veterans Affairs healthcare resources away from the nation’s military veterans to serve illegal aliens arriving at the United States-Mexico border.
The statements from Daines come as Fox News’s Adam Shaw reported this week that the Concerned Veterans for America group is urging Congress and federal investigators to look into the Immigration and Customs Enforcement’s (ICE) arrangement with the Department of Veterans Affairs (VA).
During a press conference on Dec. 5, Daines said the report about the VA possibly servicing illegal aliens instead of veterans is just “one more story to build on why we need to solve the problem on the southern border.”

“We just learned that [Veterans Affairs] health care resources, the VA, are being used to facilitate healthcare to illegal migrants,” Daines said:
Veterans have a hard enough time getting the care that they need and now they have to compete with illegal immigrants? This will not fix the border crisis. Biden’s border crisis puts illegal immigrants first, it puts our veterans last. You know in Montana we have the second highest per capita veteran population in the United States. This is a disservice to all those who have said sacrificed and served our country. [Emphasis added]
Last year, Department of Homeland Security (DHS) Secretary Alejandro Mayorkas seemingly confirmed to Rep. Ashley Hinson (R-IA) that the agency was looking at using VA healthcare resources at the southern border.
Reports from the House Homeland Security Committee, chaired by Rep. Mark Green (R-TN), have shown that Medicaid costs for emergency services for illegal aliens cost American taxpayers more than $7 billion in Fiscal Year 2021 and more than $5.4 billion in Fiscal Year 2022.
Annually, Americans are forced to subsidize medical care for illegal aliens to the tune of $18.5 billion. In 2021, Americans footed the bill for more than $316 million in medical care for illegal aliens who were detained by ICE.
