The Biden administration is intoxicated with power. But they’re about to learn a stark lesson.

Because the U.S. Supreme Court’s next big decision has President Biden on pins and needles.

The Biden administration is actively challenging Republican-led states over their immigration laws, arguing these measures are unconstitutional as they encroach on federal authority. The Department of Justice (DOJ) has filed lawsuits against Texas, Iowa, and Oklahoma for enacting laws that empower local police to enforce immigration rules. These states claim they are responding to an unprecedented border crisis, accusing the federal government of failing to enforce immigration laws adequately.

Texas, Iowa, and Oklahoma have each passed legislation that makes it a state crime to be an illegal immigrant. Texas Senate Bill 4 (SB4), Iowa Senate File 2340, and Oklahoma House Bill 4156 grant law enforcement the authority to arrest illegal immigrants and impose penalties for unlawful presence.

These measures reflect the states’ attempts to protect themselves, as explained by Matt Crapo, a senior attorney with the Immigration Reform Law Institute (IRLI). “Due to the abdication of this administration’s duty to enforce the law, states are trying to protect themselves,” Crapo shared with reporters. “They are trying to do so by mirroring federal law, enforcing the same type of laws if this administration was enforcing the law.”

The Biden administration contends that these state laws are unconstitutional, asserting that immigration enforcement is a federal prerogative. The legality of these state measures may ultimately be decided by the Supreme Court, with Texas’s SB4 likely to be the first to reach the nation’s highest court.

IRLI has filed an amicus brief in the Fifth Circuit Court of Appeals supporting Texas SB4. Crapo mentioned that his organization plans to file similar briefs for the Iowa and Oklahoma laws once those states challenge the preliminary injunctions imposed by federal courts. The brief argues that SB4 “parallels” federal immigration laws without interfering with federal authority over immigration.

However, not all legal experts agree with this interpretation. “SB4 is cruel, inhumane, and clearly unconstitutional,” Kate Melloy Goettel, senior legal director at the American Immigration Council, stated in March.

“All these bills could result in significant civil rights abuses, leading to widespread arrests and deportations by state actors without key federal protections.” Goettel expressed hope that SB4 would be blocked in court to prevent setting a “disastrous precedent.”

The outcome of these legal battles remains uncertain. Art Arthur of the Center for Immigration Studies highlighted the unique aspects of the Texas case compared to a 2010 Arizona law that was largely struck down by the Supreme Court. “It’s sort of an open question as to whether the Supreme Court is going to allow Texas to criminalize illegal entry into Texas,” Arthur noted, emphasizing Texas’ argument that trespassing is fundamentally a state crime.

Arthur also pointed out that Texas’ legislation is different from the Iowa and Oklahoma laws, which could lead to varied judicial outcomes. He suggested that the Supreme Court’s decision on SB4 would provide significant insight into the viability of other state laws. According to Arthur, the passage of these state laws reflects genuine concerns rather than political maneuvers, underscoring a perceived failure by the Biden administration to enforce immigration laws.

“Texas’ argument is ‘look, the federal government doesn’t completely occupy the field with respect to this crime because trespassing is an essential state crime and this is basically a trespassing offense,’” Art Arthur shared with reporters.

Illegal immigration has surged to historic levels, with Border Patrol agents reporting over 1,171,000 encounters with illegal immigrants this fiscal year alone. Since President Joe Biden took office, there have been more than six million such encounters. High-profile crimes committed by illegal immigrants, such as the killing of a Georgia nursing student and the attempted breach of the Quantico Marine Base, have further intensified the debate.

Biden’s strategy is very simple:

1. Get as many illegals in the country as possible.

2. Legalize them to create a permanent majority – a one-party state.

Amid these challenges, Republican state leaders feel compelled to take action. Louisiana state senator Valarie Hodges, sponsor of Senate Bill 388, which would make illegal entry a state crime, stated, “The Biden administration refuses to do their job, so we need to do it.” Her bill proposes penalties of up to one year in prison and a $4,000 fine for the first offense, and up to two years in prison and a $10,000 fine for a second offense.

Despite the prospect of legal challenges, Hodges remains resolute. “When the federal government won’t do their job, what course do we have? We’re going to collapse if we don’t do something. I believe we are within our constitutional boundaries to do this.” She added, “Maybe we should sue them for not doing their job.”

The ongoing legal battles between the Biden administration and Republican-led states over immigration enforcement laws reflect a deep divide over how best to address the crisis at the U.S. border. The Supreme Court’s eventual rulings on these cases will have far-reaching implications for the balance of power between federal and state authorities in immigration enforcement.

So even if Joe Biden is somehow able to hold on to his position in the Oval Office for a second term, he could be looking at starting off with a huge policy loss should the conservative-majority U.S. Supreme Court bench rule his harassment of Republican states to be unconstitutional.

Joe Biden is not fit to serve as President of the United States. And it seems that even his supporters understand that.

Because the White House’s shocking remarks leave Americans wondering about Biden’s future.

In a heated exchange on Tuesday, Fox News White House correspondent Peter Doocy pressed White House Press Secretary Karine Jean-Pierre on whether the Biden administration is panicking over President Joe Biden’s re-election prospects.

This comes in the wake of a POLITICO article indicating significant anxiety within the Democratic Party about Biden’s chances in 2024.

The POLITICO article, titled “Dems in full-blown ‘freakout’ over Biden,” highlighted the growing concerns among Democrats.

It noted, “One adviser to major Democratic donors keeps a running list of reasons Biden could lose,” reflecting the pervasive fear within the party’s highest ranks.

The article suggested that despite previous confidence, many Democratic officeholders and strategists are now deeply worried about the upcoming election battle with former President Donald Trump.

Doocy’s question to Jean-Pierre was direct: “Are you guys here at the White House in full-blown freak-out mode?”

Jean-Pierre, appearing taken aback and feigning ignorance of the POLITICO article, responded, “What are you talking about? What are you talking about?”

“There’s a — there’s a —” Doocy began, before Jean-Pierre cut him off, “Peter —”

Doocy continued, “— POLITICO story. It sounds like Democrats, outside —” he persisted, quoting the article that cited Biden’s persistently poor polling and the high stakes of the election as sources of Democratic “freakout,” according to a Democratic operative.

DOOCY TIME: “Are you guys here at the White House in full-blown freak out mode?”

KJP: “What are you talking about? What are you talking about?”

Doocy: “There’s a — there’s a —”

KJP: “Peter!”

Jean-Pierre dodged the question, saying, “So again, I’m really mindful — I’m not going to comment on 2024 election,” and pivoted to discussing Biden’s empathy for the American people, stating, “I will say this — uh — the President has never forgotten where he comes — where he came from, who he is. He understands what the American people are going through as they’re sitting around the kitchen table.”

The POLITICO article painted a grim picture for Biden’s re-election campaign.

It noted that a “pervasive sense of fear has settled in at the highest levels of the Democratic Party over President Joe Biden’s reelection prospects, even among officeholders and strategists who had previously expressed confidence about the coming battle with Donald Trump. … nearly five months from the election, anxiety has morphed into palpable trepidation, according to more than a dozen party leaders and operatives. And the gap between what Democrats will say on TV or in print, and what they’ll text their friends, has only grown as worries have surged about Biden’s prospects.”

This anxiety is compounded by the fact that former President Trump, despite numerous legal battles and controversies, is leading Biden in most battleground states.

The article highlighted that Trump raised significantly more money in April, and the landscape for Democrats may worsen with Trump’s legal issues potentially resolving favorably and Hunter Biden’s trial set to begin in Delaware.

The POLITICO report also revealed that a Democratic adviser to major party donors has compiled a list of nearly two dozen reasons why Biden could lose.

The adviser bleakly remarked, “The list of why we ‘could’ win is so small I don’t even need to keep the list on my phone.”

As Biden’s approval ratings continue to struggle and concerns about his age and cognitive abilities persist, the Democratic Party faces a significant challenge.

The party’s internal conflicts and external pressures are becoming increasingly visible, leading to a lack of confidence among its ranks.

The Radical Left is doing everything they can to hinder Trump. But they have crossed the line with recent developments.

And a threat against Trump in NY has Americans shocked and worried.

As the high-stakes New York trial against former President Donald Trump approaches its verdict, preparations are being made for an unprecedented scenario.

According to reports, Trump’s Secret Service detail has met with local jail officials to discuss potential arrangements if the former president is sentenced to prison.

This preparation underscores the gravity of the situation, given Trump’s status as a former president entitled to lifelong Secret Service protection.

A CBS News report cites a New York corrections source confirming that Secret Service agents have been in discussions with local New York corrections officials.

The complexity of potentially incarcerating a former president necessitates meticulous planning, as Trump’s Secret Service protection would need to be maintained even behind bars.

This unprecedented scenario poses significant logistical and security challenges.

During a May 6 hearing, Judge Juan Merchan, who is presiding over the case, expressed concerns about the implications of such a sanction.

“I worry about the people who would have to execute that sanction: the court officers, the correction officers, the Secret Service detail, among others,” Merchan stated.

This acknowledgment highlights the extraordinary nature of the case and the potential fallout from a prison sentence for Trump.

While the prospect of Trump serving jail time remains uncertain, the judge has previously threatened incarceration over violations of a gag order placed on Trump.

The unprecedented nature of sentencing a former president complicates potential outcomes.

Former Manhattan prosecutor Duncan Levin suggested that Merchan could opt for a less severe sentence, such as home confinement and probation, allowing Trump to maintain some level of public engagement, including access to social media and the ability to conduct interviews.

New York City Mayor Eric Adams has assured the public that the city is prepared for any outcome. “Our amazing commissioner is prepared for whatever comes on Rikers Island,” Adams stated.

He emphasized that the Department of Corrections is equipped to handle even the most unusual situations, citing the example of handling high-profile inmates like Harvey Weinstein. “In this business, particularly around law enforcement, we have to adjust to whatever comes our way,” Adams added.

The case, brought by Manhattan District Attorney Alvin Bragg, charges Trump with 34 felony counts of falsifying business records.

These charges stem from actions taken in 2016, which under normal circumstances would be classified as misdemeanors and subject to the statute of limitations.

However, Bragg elevated the charges to felonies by alleging that the falsifications were connected to another crime.

In a controversial decision, Judge Merchan ruled that the jury does not need to agree on what the other crime was, only that another crime was committed in conjunction with the falsified records charges.

This ruling has sparked significant debate and concern. Critics argue that it sets a dangerous precedent and undermines the principle of specific and clear charges in criminal cases.

As the trial nears its conclusion, the nation awaits the verdict with bated breath.

The outcome could set a historic precedent and will undoubtedly be a defining moment in the ongoing saga of Donald Trump’s legal battles.

Regardless of the verdict, the case has already highlighted significant challenges and questions about the intersection of law, politics, and the unprecedented situation of prosecuting a former president.

Since the weaponization of the justice system by the Biden administration, Americans have been worried. But now, they are more than worried… they are scared.

And Biden’s shocking Trump trial lies have turned the nation against him.

The Biden White House and the Biden-Harris campaign have consistently stated that the criminal trials against former President Donald Trump are not political and do not represent a weaponization of the Department of Justice (DOJ). They maintain that the DOJ operates independently.

However, on Tuesday, the Biden campaign staged a conspicuous political event outside the New York City courthouse where Trump has been facing charges of falsification of business records.

Speaking to the press, campaign communications director Michael Taylor attempted to deflect attention from the courthouse proceedings, stating, “First of all, let me say this first and foremost, we’re not here today because of what’s going on over there,” while motioning towards the courthouse.

“We’re here today because you all are here.” He then introduced Biden campaigners, including actor Robert De Niro and two Capitol Police officers who were on duty on January 6, 2021.

— The Post Millennial (@TPostMillennial) May 28, 2024

Taylor then targeted Biden’s chief political opponent, Donald Trump, who currently leads Biden in many swing state polls.

Taylor suggested that Trump was “somewhere fighting for himself,” labeling him an “unhinged, power-hungry, self-centered man” who “rambles.”

He further insinuated that Trump might not “show up” for the upcoming debate, casting doubt on his willingness to confront Biden directly.

When questioned about the independence of the DOJ in its pursuit of criminal cases against Trump, the White House reiterated that President Biden had restored “integrity” to the DOJ by appointing Merrick Garland as Attorney General.

However, a report from The New York Times suggested that Biden had instructed Garland to prosecute Trump, raising concerns about the impartiality of these proceedings.

Despite these allegations, the White House continued to assert that there was no political motivation behind Trump’s prosecution.

The White House press secretary maintained that “It would not be appropriate for us to comment on any ongoing investigations.”

However, this stance did not prevent the Biden campaign from holding a politically charged event outside the courthouse where Trump’s trial was taking place. This move has raised eyebrows and fueled speculation about the campaign’s true intentions.

Tyler justified the campaign’s decision to stage the event by emphasizing the perceived threat Trump poses to the nation and to “democracy.”

He acknowledged concerns that such an event might suggest the Biden campaign and administration have a vested interest in securing a conviction against Trump.

Although the jury has been instructed to avoid media coverage of the case, they have not been sequestered, heightening concerns about potential bias.

Biden spokesperson Tyler reiterated the campaign’s stance, stating that the event was necessary due to the threat Trump poses.

He addressed the optics of staging a campaign event outside Trump’s trial, acknowledging that it could give the appearance of a conflict of interest.

However, the Left continues to make the Trump trial about politics, and they continue to weaponize the justice system against anyone who disagrees politically with them.

With the Radical Left doing everything they can to push their destructive agenda on Americans, people are starting to fight back. But this recent situation is different.

And a rogue White House official makes insane announcement that will change everything.

Secretary of Transportation Pete Buttigieg faced tough questions on CBS’ Face the Nation about the Biden administration’s sluggish progress in building electric vehicle (EV) charging stations, despite a significant allocation of funds for the project.

During the interview, Buttigieg was unable to provide an explanation as to why, despite the $7.5 billion earmarked for EV charging infrastructure in the Inflation Reduction Act of 2022, the administration had only managed to construct only “seven or eight” EV charging stations by April 2024.

This revelation comes as a stark contrast to the administration’s ambitious goal of deploying half a million EV chargers by the end of the decade.

MARGARET BRENNAN: “–obviously it’s resonating for him, because he wouldn’t bring it up so frequently if there wasn’t some anxiety that he’s tapping into. And let me ask about a portion of this that I think does fall under your portfolio and that’s the charging stations you mentioned. The Federal Highway Administration says only seven or eight charging stations have been produced with the $7.5 billion investment that taxpayers made back in 2021. Why isn’t that happening more quickly?”

SECRETARY BUTTIGIEG: “So the President’s goal is to have half a million chargers up by the end of this decade. Now, in order to do a charger, it’s more than just plunking a- a small device into the ground, there’s utility work, and this is also, really, a new category of federal investment. But we’ve been working with each of the 50 states, every one of them is getting formula dollars to do this work–”

MARGARET BRENNAN: “Seven or eight, though?”

SECRETARY BUTTIGIEG: “–Engaging them and the first handful- again, by 2030, 500,000 chargers. And the very first handful of chargers are now already being physically built. But again, that’s the absolute very, very beginning stages of the construction to come.”

MARGARET BRENNAN: “Right. But- but that gets to the point about not being able to make long-distance travel possible quickly if you don’t have the infrastructure there to support it.”

SECRETARY BUTTIGIEG: “Right, so–”

MARGARET BRENNAN: “So you recognize it should be–”

SECRETARY BUTTIGIEG: “Most of the charging infrastructure right now is being provided by the private sector. The reason that we’re investing federal dollars is to fill in some of the gaps in areas where it is not yet profitable for the private sector to do it. Now, again, the majority of charging will happen at home …”

The Left claims that the slow progress has been attributed to various factors, including local zoning restrictions and bureaucratic red tape.

However, critics argue that the administration has not done enough to streamline the process, particularly when compared to the Trump administration, which was known for cutting regulatory hurdles to expedite projects.

Republican lawmakers and conservative commentators have been quick to point out the administration’s failure to deliver on its promises, highlighting the disconnect between the allocated funds and the tangible outcomes.

The issue of EV infrastructure is crucial, especially as the Biden administration continues to push for a transition to green energy and electric vehicles as part of its broader climate agenda.

Former President Donald Trump was known for his aggressive approach to eliminating bureaucratic obstacles, a strategy that many conservatives argue should be adopted by the current administration to accelerate the deployment of EV charging stations.

Trump’s policies focused on reducing regulatory burdens to facilitate quicker implementation of infrastructure projects, a stark contrast to the current slow-moving process under Biden.

To meet its goal of 500,000 EV chargers by 2030, the Biden administration will need to address these challenges head-on.

This includes cutting through the red tape that has hampered progress and ensuring that federal investments are effectively utilized to build the necessary infrastructure.

Secretary Buttigieg’s appearance on Face the Nation has shown the American people just how much time and money the Left is wasting in order to push their Radical Agenda.

With billions of taxpayer dollars sunk into this absurd push already, and with little results to show from it, Americans are infuriated.

Stay tuned to Prudent Politics.

Joe Biden’s foreign policies are known to be terrible. But this newest development might be one of the worst yet.

And Biden’s shocking statements regarding terrorists’ nuclear program have millions worried.

In a shocking and controversial move, President Joe Biden is reportedly urging America’s European allies to ease off pressuring Iran regarding its illegal nuclear activities, even as the Islamic Republic accelerates its stockpile of near-weapons grade nuclear fuel.

The Biden administration is specifically attempting to dissuade Britain and France from pushing for a censure of Iran at the upcoming International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA) member-state board meeting next month, according to a report from The Wall Street Journal, which cited various diplomats.

Additionally, the Biden administration has been lobbying several other countries to abstain from voting in favor of censuring Iran, a stance the administration itself plans to adopt.

European diplomats have voiced their concerns, warning that the failure to take decisive action would undermine the IAEA’s authority, which is responsible for policing the nonproliferation of nuclear weapons.

These diplomats argue that it also diminishes the credibility of Western pressure on Iran and expresses frustration over what they perceive as U.S. efforts to weaken their strategy.

Despite these diplomatic pressures, the Biden administration maintains that it is increasing pressure on Iran through sanctions and international isolation.

However, critics point out that sanctions enforcement has been relaxed, allowing Iran to generate tens of billions of dollars in oil revenue.

“Iran’s level of cooperation with the agency remains unacceptable,” stated Laura Holgate, the U.S. ambassador to the IAEA. “The board must be prepared to take further action should Iran’s cooperation not improve dramatically.”

Recent reports from the IAEA, the United Nations’ nuclear watchdog, indicate that Iran has significantly increased its stockpile of near weapons-grade enriched uranium.

According to the Associated Press, Iran’s stockpile of 60% enriched uranium has risen from 121.5 kilograms to 142.1 kilograms in a few months.

The Foundation for the Defense of Democracies (FDD) highlights that 99% of the effort required to produce weapons-grade uranium occurs during the enrichment phase to 60%. The final phase, which involves boosting it to 90% or higher, constitutes just “the last 1% of the effort needed to produce the fuel for a nuclear weapon.” This crucial period, known as “breakout time,” takes only seven days.

Iran began enriching uranium to 20% and 60% and stockpiling both shortly after the November 2020 elections. Under President Biden, who has relaxed sanctions enforcement against the nation, Iran has amassed unprecedented levels of enriched uranium, violating international law.

The Biden administration’s strategy regarding Iran has faced substantial criticism. While the administration claims to be increasing pressure through sanctions and diplomatic isolation, the reality is that Iran continues to expand its nuclear capabilities unchecked. Andrea Stricker, Deputy Director and Research Fellow of FDD’s Nonproliferation & Biodefense program, commented on the situation:

“IAEA’s latest reporting shows Iran is steadily increasing its proximity to nuclear weapons. The Biden admin. naively believes Tehran is undertaking restraint via indirect talks and U.S. sanctions relief,” Stricker said. “Yet the regime is taking a ‘boiling the frog’ approach to nuclear breakout. By the time Washington realizes it, the frog will be cooked, and the regime will have a nuclear deterrent.”

Stricker further informed The Daily Wire that as of February, Iran possessed enough enriched uranium to produce 13 nuclear weapons once the uranium is enriched to 90%. The regime could produce nearly four weapons immediately using just its stock of 60% enriched uranium.

The Biden administration’s apparent reluctance to confront Iran more forcefully raises significant concerns about the future of global security and the effectiveness of international nonproliferation efforts. Critics argue that this approach sends the wrong message to Tehran, effectively enabling their nuclear ambitions while undermining the credibility of the IAEA and international agreements.

Senator Tom Cotton (R-AR), a vocal critic of the administration’s Iran policy, remarked, “This administration’s failure to hold Iran accountable for its nuclear ambitions is not only dangerous but also signals a disturbing weakness in U.S. foreign policy. By backing down, we are compromising our national security and the security of our allies.”

As the world watches Iran inch closer to achieving a nuclear weapon, the Biden administration’s stance continues to spark heated debate.

While the administration maintains that it is exerting pressure on Tehran, the lack of robust action and the relaxation of sanctions enforcement tell a different story.
