Joe Biden and the Coming Domestic Martyrdom Operations
Even before the border was flung open, federal law enforcement failed time and again to prevent mass casualty attacks by terrorists.
Do you remember the D.C. sniper attacks? In October 2002, John Allen Muhammad and Lee Boyd Malvo went on a protracted shooting spree in the Washington metropolitan area, during which they murdered 10 people, wounded three others, and disrupted the lives and daily routines of hundreds of thousands who feared being the next randomly selected victim.
It took three weeks to track down and capture Muhammad and Malvo. But, before they were caught, the killers tied up massive federal, state, and local law enforcement resources and terrorized Washington and its suburbs in Maryland and Northern Virginia.
School children say they are being forced to walk past ‘Venezuelan prostitutes’ in broad daylight at NYC’s ‘Sweetheart Market’
New York school children have complained they are being forced to walk past ‘Venezuelan prostitutes’ in broad daylight, with their neighborhood likened to a Bangkok ‘red-light district’.
High schoolers told how they encounter sex workers ‘virtually on every block’ of the route along the Jackson Heights-Corona border.
Jalene Lugo, 14, said she passed several provocatively dressed women in a doorway on 93rd Street earlier this week and not for the first time.
Poll: Americans care more about border crisis than foreign wars
Containing immigration is emerging as a core issue for voters
An overwhelming majority of Americans support an increase in funding to secure the southern border, according to a new Quinnipiac poll, and the issue is significantly more popular than providing aid for the wars in the Middle East and Ukraine.
Migrant caravan heading through Mexico to US grows in numbers
A group of thousands of migrants who have set off on foot for the United States from southern Mexico is steadily growing in size.
Its organiser says around 7,000 people now make up this migrant caravan, up from 5,000 just days ago.
Most of them are from Central and South America, local aid groups say.
US President Joe Biden is due to meet leaders from the region on Friday to discuss how to curb the flow of migrants to the United States.
New Poll Suggests Rising Support for RFK Jr. in a Three-Way Race With Biden, Trump
Momentum from third-party candidates suggests that the 2024 presidential election is likely to get messier even though both Democrats and Republicans seem to have settled on a nominee.
A new survey is previewing a potentially messy presidential election with significant support for independent and third-party candidates in 2024 — and the race is only poised to get messier as other candidates are expected to throw their hats in the ring this month.
A new survey from Quinnipiac University found that attorney Robert Kennedy Jr. would carry 22 percent support in a matchup against President Biden, who would carry 39 percent support, and President Trump, who would carry 36 percent support.
U.S. migrant crisis: 5,000 march toward the border in the BIGGEST caravan of undocumented immigrants in more than a year
As many as 5,000 migrants are marching from the southern Mexico state of Chiapas in hopes of reaching the northern border region with the United States.
Migrants from Central America, Venezuela, Cuba and Haiti initiated the trek Monday after they had grown frustrated with the long wait times the Mexican government was taking to process their refugee or exit visa applications at the main immigration processing center in the Chiapas town of Tapachula, near the Guatemala border.
Mexico’s National Migration Institute, which is tasked with approving or denying the applications, has been backed up with requests. Migrants normally wait weeks or months to have their status legalized, which allows them to work and move freely in the country.
Immigration is Transforming the Country…For the Worse
In the wake of the Hamas attacks on Israel earlier this month, a lot of commentators were shocked and angry to learn that a lot of young people did not support Israel and that many had sympathy for Hamas. This shift in public opinion differs greatly from older Americans.
Not only is Generation Z anti-Israel, but it is generally anti-capitalist, anti-military, anti-empire, and many have declared their unwillingness to serve if America resumes the draft.
This is only shocking if you have not been paying attention.
US halts export of most civilian firearms and ammunition for 90 days
The US has stopped issuing export licenses for most civilian firearms and ammunition for 90 days for all non-governmental users, the commerce department said on Friday, citing national security and foreign policy interests.
The commerce department did not provide further details for the pause, which also includes shotguns and optical sights, but said an urgent review will assess the “risk of firearms being diverted to entities or activities that promote regional instability, violate human rights, or fuel criminal activities”.
RFK Jr., Threatened Again, Sues the Biden Administration
Kennedy has been denied Secret Service protection even as his father’s assassination made it the norm in presidential races.
Once again, Robert F. Kennedy Jr. has encountered a security threat, and yet again, the Biden administration is refusing to provide the presidential candidate with Secret Service protection, despite multiple requests from Kennedy and his team over several months. In an exclusive interview with The American Spectator, Kennedy told us about the latest threat and informed us that he has responded by filing a lawsuit against the Biden administration’s Department of Homeland Security and the U.S. Secret Service.
Illegal entries soaring as Indians flee Trudeau’s Canada for US
AHMEDABAD: Diplomatic ties between India and Canada may have turned frosty, but those aiming for the backdoor route to the US through the North American country are anything but freezing in their tracks.
Data from US Customs and Border Protection shows that of the 8,076 Indians arrested for entering the country illegally through various routes in September – coinciding with the row over Canadian PM Justin Trudeau accusing Indian agencies of having a hand in terrorist Hardeep Singh Nijjar’s killing – 3,059 were caught on the US-Canada border.

Terrorism watch: New Hampshire governor sets up own patrols of border with Canada
Citing inaction from the Biden Administration on the New Hampshire border with Canada, the governor of the Granite State is taking action.
A joint task force comprised of local, county and state law enforcement has been established to conduct patrols along New Hampshire’s border with Canada to combat threats and illicit activity.
Gov. Chris Sununu, Attorney General John Formella and New Hampshire Department of Safety Commissioner Robert Quinn announced the establishment of the Northern Border Alliance Task Force today. The task force will perform patrols along the northern border to reduce crime, illicit activity, threat response and collect criminal intelligence in cooperation with federal law enforcement.
China’s Proxy Wars Are ‘Encircling’ America
China is setting fires.
Chinese President Xi Jinping green-lighted Russia’s invasion of Ukraine and is supporting that war with lethal and other assistance. In North Africa, Beijing, in conjunction with Moscow, has been fueling insurgencies that resemble wars. In the Middle East, China is backing Hamas’s monstrous attacks on Israel.
Hamas fighters, for instance, appear to have Chinese-made weapons, presumably supplied through Iran. Moreover, the U.S. Navy in 2021 and this year seized Chinese weapons in transit to another proxy of the Islamic Republic, the Houthi militia in Yemen.
Canada-U.S. refugee pact changes expected to ‘exacerbate existing threats’: memo
OTTAWA – A newly released memo shows federal officials warned last spring that expanding a bilateral refugee pact to the entire Canada-U.S. border would likely fuel smuggling networks and encourage people to seek more dangerous, remote crossing routes.
Officials feared the development would also strain RCMP resources as irregular migrants dispersed more widely across the vast border.
The April memo, made public by Public Safety Canada through the Access to Information Act, was prepared in advance of a Cross-Border Crime Forum meeting with American representatives.
