Biden's Alien Millionaires
Just when you think the situation at the border can't get any worse, it does. A story broke overnight that's guaranteed to infuriate millions of Americans. Maybe that's why Biden rushed out of the country yesterday, taking half the cabinet with him!
According to the Wall Street Journal, Biden's political hacks are negotiating with left-wing groups like the ACLU and major Washington, D.C., law firms to pay huge financial settlements to illegal aliens if they had to be separated from the children traveling with them.
The reason children and adults were separated was because we had no way of knowing that they were in fact related. Many children were brought in by human traffickers or by unrelated adults for whom the child was essentially a U.S. passport. We also had no way of knowing if an adult of one group might assault a child in another group. The policy is rational.
But rather than fighting this outrageous lawsuit, the Biden regime is reportedly going to pay them up to $450,000 per person! So, a mother with a couple of kids could collect well over $1 million.
Here's just how obscene this is: When an American soldier is killed in action, the government pays their family $100,000. Those killed on 9/11 received on average about $240,000 from a special compensation fund.
But Joe Biden wants to give illegal aliens as much as $450,000 for attempting to push their way into our country!
What do you think the migrant dreaming of coming to "welfare state America" is going to listen to more:
"Border Czar" Kamala Harris who says, "Stop or I'll say stop again"?
Homeland Security Secretary Mayorkas who says, "The border is closed, but not really"?
Or the news that Joe Biden is creating a lottery for illegal aliens to strike it rich?
By the way, this isn't a real lawsuit -- it's a gigantic payoff scheme. The Obama/Biden gang specialized in this. They encouraged left-wing groups to sue the government (you, the American taxpayers) and then they settled out of court, giving left-wing groups millions of dollars.
If this was April 1st, I'd say this news was a bad April Fool's joke from The Onion. Instead, it's a cruel Halloween trick on hardworking American taxpayers.
Overwhelming Outrage
There was overwhelming outrage from congressional conservatives and commentators to this shocking news.
Tucker Carlson labeled Biden's plan "reparations for illegal aliens," adding that it was "the high-water mark for political lunacy." Dozens of House Republicans signed onto a letter blasting this "horrific decision."
House Republican Leader Kevin McCarthy tweeted: "Pure insanity. . . It's a slap in the face to our law-abiding citizens who wake up, go to work, and pay their taxes."
Rep. Elise Stefanik tweeted: "Handing $450,000 to illegal aliens who broke into our country is like paying burglars to break into your home & steal from you. The Biden White House gets crazier by the day."
Sen. Chuck Grassley tweeted: "UNACCEPTABLE. . . We should not be paying anything to [people] who break our laws."
Senator Lindsey Graham tweeted, "I just about fell out of my chair when I read this. For the sake of our country, I hope this reporting is in error. This would be an OUTRAGE!"
Rep. Jim Jordan said, "You think we have a problem with caravans coming towards the border now? Wait until the word gets out that you actually get paid for breaking the law to come into our country. One of the many stupid policies from this administration."
Speaking of caravans, I know they get a lot of coverage because they're pushing their way past law enforcement as they march toward our border, fully intending to break our laws once they get here.
But everyone must understand that 6,000 illegal aliens, most of them not in caravans, are crossing the border every day!
Let me rephrase that: Because of Joe Biden's open border policies, there's the equivalent of an illegal alien caravan crossing our border EVERY SINGLE DAY!
Ted Cruz Nazi?
I learned something new yesterday while listening to left-wing commentators – it seems Ted Cruz is a Nazi. At least, that's what they're claiming. Now, as Paul Harvey used to say, here's the rest of the story.
During this week's Senate Judiciary Committee hearing, Cruz grilled Attorney General Merrick Garland on the absurdity of his memo directing the FBI to investigate parents at school board meetings.
Cruz referred to an incident in which a parent gave the Nazi salute at a school board meeting, and asked Garland if that was a form of speech protected under the First Amendment. Garland agreed with Sen. Cruz that it was protected speech.
Well, the left-wing media went nuts, suggesting Ted Cruz was defending Nazi salutes. They deliberately twisted the whole point of Cruz's question, and, of course, never reported that "Biden's Attorney General Defends Nazi Salutes."
Ted Cruz isn't a Nazi, and neither was the man protesting at the school board meeting. Instead, the man was accusing his local school board members of acting like Nazis with their totalitarian policies.
This is why so few Americans trust the media. Simply put, they are liars.
Needless to say, Representatives Ilhan Omar and Eric Swalwell eagerly jumped on the liberal media bandwagon to smear Cruz as a Nazi. But Ted Cruz shot back at Swalwell, tweeting:
"You are frequently a liar (when you're not sleeping with Chinese spies). But here, your lie is exactly 180 degrees false. I was defending the right of citizens to denounce authoritarian policies. In other words, to OPPOSE Nazis (or petty tyrants), not to support them."
Congratulations, Sen. Cruz! That's exactly how every conservative should fight back.
D-Day In The Old Dominion
The Virginia governor's race has been a dead heat for weeks. But last night, Fox News shocked the political establishment with its latest poll showing a big swing toward the Republican candidate, Glenn Youngkin. The Youngkin campaign's internal polls reportedly show he's leading former Governor Terry McAuliffe by a narrower margin of four points.
No one should be celebrating yet. Nearly 870,000 people have already voted, and much of that early vote is coming out of Democrat-heavy Northern Virginia.
Of course, we're very concerned about election integrity, and thousands of conservatives have volunteered to serve as poll watchers. They have been present at early voting locations across the state.
It's also just been reported that the McAuliffe campaign has hired Clinton lawyer Marc Elias, who is known for aggressive election challenges. Michael Sussmann, a former associate of Elias's, was recently charged in the Durham investigation.
Analysts and political observers say that Virginia's off-year election results often foreshadow the mood of the country heading into the mid-term congressional elections the following year.
For example, in 2009, Republican Bob McDonnell won the Virginia governor's race and Republicans won big in the 2010 mid-term elections. In 2017, Democrat Ralph Northam won the governor's race and Democrats won big in the 2018 mid-term elections.
So, if Youngkin wins, it's could well mean bad news for Democrats next year. But Virginia has been trending Blue in recent years, and Tuesday's results will say much about the direction of that trend.
