Someone received feedback that exactly zero “Highland moms” are planning on standing with him.

Probably didn’t help that the news release about the 14 year old girl getting raped by a Venezuelan happened the same day.

Pritzker was talking tough for a while too--if you come for my people, you come through me. But that rhetoric seems to have softened to more of a passive resistance (though I'm not paying close attention). Saw on Nexdoor.com that US CBP was active in the Rockford area last night, at least in the skies, but no idea what was going on. So far the Central American gangs don't seem to be too active around here.

If the numbers are to be believed there are about 2M people who have either had their asylum request adjudicated/denied and deportation ordered by the courts, or are already known to be criminals in their home countries. Hopefully they can at least get most of those removed in this term without undue civil strife.

Another sick **** Dem…. See who you idiots align with?
I hope this moron gets what he deserves….
 
Did you hear her words? She spoke about endorsing gun-grabbing without following legal protocol. Read up on her…. And I’m not saying she’s a terrible choice but she said some questionable things…
I've followed her career fairly closely. Once she hit the scene as Florida's AG. One of the complaints about her from gun-toting Billy Clanton types is that she defended Florida's law that prohibits people from openly carrying weapons. That's a complaint? That's exactly the job of an Attorney General. I don't mind open carry, but there isn't anything wrong with concealed carry provided the licensing isn't prohibitive. Adding to that, She supports "stand your ground laws". She is opposed semi-automatic weapons bans.

The only thing that could possibly be a negative regards the aftermath of Parkland. Rick Scott was the Gov when she was AG. They (Scott and FL legislature) raised the gun purchase age limit to 21. That same law introduced a "Red Flag" law. More about the red flag law of Florida here-


Is she going to grab guns? Did she grab guns when she was the FL AG? The answer is no. Is Trump going to grab guns? The people who are "clinging to their guns and religion" elected Trump.

As a reminder, here is what MSNBC Guest, Jason Johnson, said about Bondi. Johnson is a college professor with a BA in Government from UVA and a Masters in PolSci from UNC. Quote-

"Pam Bondi is exactly what I was saying in the last segment that we should all fear, because she is competent. We may not agree with her ideologically, but she actually knows how to do this job.

So if anyone on the Democratic side or anyone who cared about liberty or justice was thinking, well, maybe Matt Gaetz will screw this up and that will give us time, no. Pam Bondi knows what she is doing. She knows what she’s doing about immigration.

Remember, Florida is one of those states that’s been very aggressive about migrants and deportation and moving people to different states and everything else like that. Florida has enacted all sorts of rules and laws to curtail students and what they can do on campuses and finding legal justifications for manipulating education money.

She is a dangerous and effective pick, and that’s, frankly, worse than what we would have got with Matt Gaetz, even with the deplorable moral background that he has."

Trump considered her as his second AG in his first term, but chose Bill Barr instead. Make no mistake. Pam Bondi is a home run choice.

He's an idiot. I can't wait for the first mayor or Governor to actively try to prevent ICE from doing their job. The first arrest/prosecution will stop the BS.

She also is much more qualified than Gaetz, although resume doesn't mean effectiveness. Still, Justice is a deep swamp and having a 2 term large state attorney general, former prosecutor, etc to try to reform it sounds like a better plan. The media is already trashing her as a mindless Trump minion who is going to exact retribution on anyone Trump directs her to (same thing they said about Gaetz).

Hopefully they just get Justice back to pursuing crime and avoiding politics. It is going to be a difficult task to try to right this ship.

The fact that mattered was Doug's post. He said rare and he said "cabinet-level." Somehow you've tried to escape the admission of that.
32 seems "rare" when compared to OVER 200 from a different President, BUT the Salient FACT is that these recess appointments happen all the time for all levels of government !

"It depends on your definition of "is" ! ", Bill Clinton.
 


So the Mayor went in to a high school and fired up the kids with a situation that is very unlikely to happen. They aren’t going to need to deport kids, there are plenty of criminals to get rid of in this city.

Telling teenage kids to be activists and giving them anxiety about a situation that will likely never happen. Dems love traumatizing kids.

Pretty incredible that Mayor Mike has now asked “Highland moms” and teenagers to fight for non citizens. Funny that he hasn’t mentioned men once. Just the vulnerable.
 

The Colorado Springs mayor pulled off a Smollett type hoax. DOJ didn’t go after him, despite his regular communication with one of the suspects.

Faking racism is at least just as bad as actual racism. This country has come a long way in choking off racism but some just want it to continue…. even if by lying about it. It’s disgusting.

It’s like the boy who cried wolf. The liars harm the actual victims, because false accusations and schemes like this make people far less likely to believe them. It’s shameful.
 
Trump has already saved tens of thousands of American lives.

But Jeff and others still support the nurderous Dems

Icky loves them.

Most of this is not that hard to fix. Some will be. Weak leaders like Biden set the US back while costing numerous lives.

I am just coming off of the Fentanyl patch. I can say it is certainly effective at treating pain, but it is a very scary drug. Every prescription comes with warnings, but the list of things that can kill you when using fentanyl is a bit lengthy. I can't imagine the damage this does in the wrong hands.

Kind of like when a woman cries rape after leaving her husband and kids in a hotel to have sex with another man.
