Migrants BRAWL At NYC Shelter
REPUBLICANS PARTNER WITH BIDEN FOR WIDER OPEN BORDERS AND ENDLESS FOREIGN WARS.
5000 ILLEGALS ACCEPTED DAILY. BUT NO ONE WILL BE COUNTING. IN OTHER WORDS, A TOTAL SURRENDER OF OUR BORDER!
Leaked Senate Bill Legalizes Illegal Immigration
Cygnal Poll: Republicans Should ‘Tap into’ Voter Anger over Illegal Migration
Republican candidates should recognize that 70 percent of swing-voting independents “strongly” or “somewhat” favor the deportation of illegal migrants, according to a poll by Cygnal released Tuesday.
“This new national data shows just how voters view an unsecure border and the subsequent illegal immigration as a crisis, one that they believe is not being addressed by the Biden Administration,” said Brent Buchanan, president of the Cygnal polling firm. He continued:
Republican candidates at all levels would be wise to tap into this sentiment and contrast themselves with a sheepish bench of Democrats who have largely let the issue fester to a boiling point no locality can afford to further ignore because it’s impacting voters day-to-day lives.
The detailed results from the January 11-12 poll of 2,000 likely voters show that 61 percent of Republican supporters “strongly” support deportations.

Forty percent of independents, and 21 percent of Democrats, blacks, and Biden’s 2020 voters “strongly” favor deportations.
The “strongly” opinions are more important than “somewhat” opinions because they are the most likely to determine how a person votes.
The survey showed that 50 percent of all Democrats favor deportations of illegals — 21 percent “strongly,” and 29 percent “somewhat.”
Many other polls show rising public opposition to legal and illegal migration amid President Joe Biden’s business-backed, easy-migration border policy.
The poll comes as Republican leaders in the Senate intensify their push to reach a border deal with Democrats, despite Democrats’ record of using legal and illegal methods to extract millions of poor and desperate migrants from poor countries. Many Democrats — and some Republicans — want the draft deal so they can minimize the visibility of Biden’s aggressive migration policy during the 2024 presidential campaign.
Support for deportations is weaker among some groups: Roughly 33 percent among women, 5 percent among women younger than 55, 34 percent among voters who vote in presidential elections, and 28 percent among “swing voters.” An additional 32 percent of “swing voters” say they “somewhat” support deportation.
Federal Appeals Court Reverses Position, Allows Texas Floating Barrier to Remain
EAGLE PASS, Texas — The State of Texas secured a rehearing before the U.S. Court of Appeals for the Fifth Circuit that will allow the floating buoy barrier installed in the Rio Grande to remain in place until the full court hears the case. The en banc court hearing will take place in May 2024 and reverses a prior ruling ordering the state to remove the barrier system.
In December 2023, the Fifth Circuit panel issued a split 2-1 ruling affirming the Biden administration’s Department of Justice argument that the buoys posed a threat to public safety and blocked navigation in the Rio Grande. As reported by Breitbart Texas, the decision of the appeals court at the time upheld a lower court injunction that instructed the state to remove the 1000-foot floating barrier within ten days.
Texas Governor Greg Abbott issued a statement promising constituents he and Attorney General Ken Paxton would be filing the request for a full court hearing on the matter and expressed his willingness to take the case to the U.S. Supreme Court if necessary.
The barrier, installed at a busy migrant crossing point near Eagle Pass, Texas, in July 2023, is a product manufactured by the Cochrane USA corporation. Abbott announced the installation of the floating barrier system in 2023 as he signed a host of border security bills in Austin. The project quickly came under fire by open-border protesters unhappy with the installation of the buoys and Governor Abbott’s enhanced border security efforts under Operation Lone Star.
Wednesday’s ruling issued by the Fifth Circuit is a part of several legal battles between the state and the Biden Administration over steps Texas is taking to reduce migrant crossings at its border with Mexico. The announcement of the ruling by the Texas Attorney General comes on the heels of another potential legal battle between the Biden Administration and Paxton over the recent seizure of Shelby Park in Eagle Pass by the Texas Military Department.
As a result of last week’s seizure of the border park adjacent to the Rio Grande, the Biden administration’s Department of Homeland Security issued Paxton a cease-and-desist letter claiming the Border Patrol’s right to enter the park to perform official duties had been unlawfully impeded by the move. The letter demanded the state to remove temporary gates from the park’s entrance and allow the Border Patrol full access by the end of the day on Wednesday or face legal action.
As reported by Breitbart Texas, Paxton responded to the letter by sending correspondence to the Department of Homeland Security refuting the legal issues contained in the cease-and-desist letter and vowing to stand firm on the State’s seizure and conditions for entry into the area by the Border Patrol.
That issue, as well as another federal court case regarding the Border Patrol’s right to cut or move concertina wire installed along the border, remains unresolved.
