New immigration court decision in border state comes as a major blow to the Left

The Radical Left and Joe Biden have completely opened this country up to illegal immigration. But now, the courts are pushing back against their Radical policies.

And a new immigration court decision in border state has dealt a major blow to the Left.

George Alan Kelly, a 75-year-old Arizona rancher, will not face a retrial for the alleged murder of Gabriel Cuen-Buitimea, a 48-year-old illegal immigrant found dead on his property near Nogales, Arizona.

After an intense four-week trial that concluded with a jury deadlock earlier this month, Santa Cruz County prosecutors have decided not to pursue the case further, citing the “unique circumstances and challenges” that prevented a unanimous verdict.

Cuen-Buitimea, a Mexican national who had a history of multiple deportations from the United States, was trespassing on Kelly’s ranch with a group of other suspected illegal immigrants on January 31, 2023.

Kelly, who has consistently maintained his innocence, was charged with second-degree murder but argued that he only fired warning shots in defense of his property and did not fatally shoot Cuen-Buitimea.

The defense’s narrative resonated with the majority of the jury, leading to a 7-1 decision in favor of acquittal.

“I’m just so happy for them. We got the right answer,” Kelly’s defense lawyer, Kathy Lowthorp, remarked following the announcement that there would be no retrial.

She also indicated that the trial had taken a significant toll on Kelly, suggesting he is likely to move away from the area due to the stress and negative attention the case has attracted.

This legal outcome has stirred significant reactions on both sides of the border.

Santa Cruz County prosecutor Mike Jette had argued during the trial that Kelly unnecessarily escalated the situation, despite not observing any weapons among the group of trespassers.

Conversely, Mexico’s consul general in Nogales, Marcos Moreno Báez, expressed disappointment over the decision not to retry the case, citing a lack of justice for Cuen-Buitimea’s family and critiquing the trial’s portrayal of migration issues.

The decision not to pursue a retrial reflects a broader debate on the current illegal immigration crisis which has been a major topic of American politics, especially in border states like Arizona.

Many conservatives view the outcome as a vindication of the right to protect one’s property and safety, particularly under circumstances where border enforcement is perceived to be insufficient.

Indeed, this case underscores the challenges ranchers and property owners face on the U.S.-Mexico border, where illegal crossings are frequent and often lead to dangerous confrontations.

For many, Kelly’s situation highlights the need for more robust border security measures and more explicit legal protections for those who find themselves defending their property against illegal trespassers.

The Kelly case may also have broader implications for U.S. immigration policy and the ongoing debates surrounding the rights of property owners versus the treatment of migrants.

While every individual, regardless of citizenship status, deserves fair treatment under the law, there is also a strong argument to be made that the rights of American citizens to secure their property must be firmly upheld.

The resolution of this case leaves open many questions about the balance between national security, individual rights, and the complexities of immigration enforcement.

As the United States continues to grapple with these issues, the story of George Alan Kelly serves as a poignant reminder of the real-world impacts of policy and the often personal nature of the national discourse on immigration.

Shocking bipartisan movement underway that has the Radical Left nervous

The Radical Left has been forcing their agenda on the world for years. But now, all of that is about to change

Because a bipartisan movement is underway that has the Left nervous.

A bipartisan group of U.S. lawmakers has raised serious concerns about the credibility of the International Criminal Court (ICC), warning that the court risks undermining its standing if it proceeds with arrest warrants for Israeli officials.

These warrants would be in response to Israel’s military actions against Hamas following the October 7 massacre.

Reports suggest that the ICC may be considering arrest warrants for key Israeli figures, including Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu, Defense Minister Yoav Gallant, and Israel Defense Forces Chief of Staff Herzi Halevi.

This development comes amid a contentious backdrop of international relations, where the legitimacy and jurisdiction of the ICC are frequently questioned by several major nations, including the United States, Russia, China, and India.

A senior Biden administration official emphasized to Axios that the United States does not recognize the ICC’s jurisdiction in this matter and opposes any ICC investigations into Israeli actions.

The sentiment reflects a broader skepticism about the ICC’s actions, which some U.S. officials and lawmakers perceive as overreaching.

This skepticism has prompted some U.S. lawmakers to draft legislation aimed at sanctioning ICC officials involved in the investigation into Israel.

These proposed sanctions highlight the growing tensions between the ICC and the United States over issues of sovereignty and international law.

Prime Minister Netanyahu has vocally opposed the ICC’s potential moves, asserting Israel’s right to self-defense and criticizing the ICC’s actions as a threat to democracy and an affront to all countries fighting terrorism.

“The threat to seize the soldiers and officials of the Middle East’s only democracy and the world’s only Jewish state is outrageous,” Netanyahu stated. “We will not bow to it,” he affirmed, declaring Israel’s determination to continue its defense efforts against what he described as genocidal terrorists.

U.S. House Speaker Mike Johnson called the potential ICC actions “disgraceful” and “illegitimate,” arguing that such moves would undermine U.S. national security interests and could set a dangerous precedent that might affect American political leaders, diplomats, and military personnel.

Senator John Fetterman (D-PA) and Representative Ritchie Torres (D-NY) also expressed their disapproval on social media, emphasizing the potential damage to the ICC’s judicial and moral standing and criticizing the perceived injustice of targeting Israel for defending itself against Hamas attacks.

Representative Brad Sherman (D-CA) highlighted the inconsistency in the ICC’s prosecutorial decisions, noting the court’s failure to address significant atrocities in other regions such as Syria, Sudan, and Tigray.

“Instead, the ICC apparently considers warrants on Israeli leaders for legitimate self-defense. Such a decision would be outrageous, and I condemn it,” Sherman stated.

Senator Ted Cruz (R-TX) went further, suggesting that any move by the ICC to target Israeli officials would align the court with what he called “genocidal terrorists,” undermining its credibility irreparably. Cruz called for strong U.S. sanctions against the ICC should it proceed in this manner.

The bipartisan response underscores a rare unity in U.S. politics regarding the support for Israel and the opposition to terrorist groups and any support for them.

Humiliating video of Kamala Harris proves what everyone knew

Harris may go down as the least likable vice president in history. It’s not hard to see after moments like these.

And a humiliating video of Kamala Harris proves what everyone knew.

On Drew Barrymore’s daytime talk show Monday, Vice President Kamala Harris was asked if she could become the country’s mother.

What that exactly means? Nobody has any clue. But it didn’t stop the aging Hollywood actress from asking.

“I’ve been thinking that we really all need a tremendous hug in the world right now,” Barrymore said, “but in our country, we need you to be Mamala of the country.”

“Yeah,” Harris said, chuckling.

Political observers took to social media to lampoon the exchange.

“Drew Barrymore is gaslighting, NO ONE wants Kamala Harris to be ‘Momala’ for the country,” ACT for America chairman Brigitte Gabriel wrote Monday on X.

“Howard Stern refers to Joe Biden as the ‘Father of the Country.’ Drew Barrymore says Kamala needs to be our ‘Momala’. Who exactly is in a cult? These people aren’t looking for a leader they’re looking for surrogate parents,” Fox News host Will Cain wrote.

According to author Oli London, “Drew Barrymore participates in cringe-worthy and fawning display with Kamala Harris.”

“Is this possible?” Canadian academic Gad Saad inquired about the conversation between Harris and Barrymore in response to London’s X post.

“Could a society delve into such an infantile orgy of mediocrity that this is considered compelling?”

Harris also discussed with Barrymore the necessity of never allowing “anybody take your power” and being intentional in recognizing “what is in your power” before moving on to remarks about her laugh.

Harris made waves by chuckling in answer to questions on the border crisis and the value of female leadership.

“You were asking me earlier about what it means to be like the first woman,” she added.

“And you know, it’s funny because people still gotta get used to this, right?”

Barrymore reportedly told Harris that she liked the vice president’s laugh.

Well, Barrymore is certainly in the minority.

Only 38.5% of Americans approve of Kamala Harris’ job in the White House according to FiveThirtyEight polling averages.

Compare that to Joe Biden at 39.5%, and she’s doing even worse than him – though not by much.

No one wants a “Mamala.” We want an economy that works for Americans, an immigration system that isn’t rewarding illegals, and an end to endless wars.

NYC’s newest immigration move has residents overrun by crime and despair

The Radical Left continues to prioritize illegal aliens of US citizens. But now, they have gone a step too far.

Because NYC’s newest immigration move has residents overrun by crime and despair.

In the heart of New York City’s bustling Williamsburg neighborhood, a high-end hotel once known for its boutique charm has been converted into a shelter for illegal immigrants, marking a significant shift in its operation and the surrounding community.

Hotel Le Jolie, located near the Brooklyn-Queens Expressway and just blocks from McCarren Park, has ceased its traditional hospitality services to accommodate families amidst an overwhelming influx of illegal aliens.

Since May last year, Hotel Le Jolie, previously celebrated on platforms like TripAdvisor for its distinctive appeal, has redirected its resources to serve as a sanctuary for those who have entered this country illegally.

This transformation aligns with broader city efforts to manage the sharp increase in the number of asylum seekers and illegal immigrants.

The New York Post reports that Mayor Eric Adams’ administration has facilitated this transition through a $12.3 million contract awarded to the Brooklyn-based nonprofit St. P.A.U.L.S. Inc.

The organization is now tasked with running a “sanctuary city facility for families with children” at the hotel’s address, 235 Meeker Avenue.

The change has not gone unnoticed by potential guests. Those attempting to book a stay through popular sites like Expedia encounter a notification stating, “This property is closed from May 2, 2023, to December 31, 2024,” categorized under “Renovations and closures.”

This shift from a tourist-friendly hotel to a shelter is indicative of the city’s current response to a massive influx of illegal immigrants during Joe Biden’s immigration crisis.

Before its transformation, Hotel Le Jolie enjoyed generally positive reviews, with few customers leaving dissatisfied.

However, the hotel’s new role has brought to light broader, more complex issues facing the city and the nation.

New York has spent tens of millions of dollars to house migrants in various hotels, a makeshift solution that has resulted in increased reports of drug use, alcohol abuse, and violent incidents—problems that have spilled over into the neighborhoods.

These issues were starkly highlighted in an interview conducted by Turning Point USA’s Savanah Hernandez with Carlos Arrellano, a whistleblower who has worked at the largest hotel-turned-shelter in New York City.

Located a block away from Times Square, this facility has reportedly been a source of considerable turmoil.

Arrellano, with five years of experience in the field, expressed his dismay at the current situation: “I’ve been doing this for five years, and in my five years, this has been the worst experience by far,” he said. “The city of New York does not know what they’re doing, and it’s only going to get worse from here.”

The Department of Homeland Security, initially relying on a temporary team to manage the transition of Hotel Le Jolie and similar facilities, expects St. P.A.U.L.S. Inc. to elevate the quality of services provided to the residents.

This expectation comes amid growing concerns about the adequacy of the city’s infrastructure and resources to handle such a significant and rapid population change.

While the city’s decision to convert hotels into shelters is one that the Left champions, it also raises questions about the sustainability of such measures and the long-term impact on local communities and the migrants they aim to help.

As New York continues to wrestle with these issues, the responses from city officials, nonprofit organizations, and the communities involved will likely be forced to adjust as they are overwhelmed with illegal immigrants.

The transformation of Hotel Le Jolie into a shelter not only serves as simply a temporary bandage for a massive crisis but also as a poignant symbol of the city’s broader struggles with immigration even as they claim to be a “sanctuary city.”

New interview with top Liberal lawmaker unveils Left’s true intentions

1

The Radical Left has made it clear that they have little to no regard for this nation nor the people who live here. But even so, people were still shocked when they said this.

And a new interview with a top Liberal lawmaker has unveiled the Left’s true intentions.

Representative Jamaal Bowman, a Democrat from New York, has recently expressed his support for resettling Palestinian refugees in the United States and granting amnesty to illegal immigrants residing in the country for extended periods.

During an interview with Yonkers Voice, Bowman revealed his views on these issues, which have stirred considerable debate among policymakers and the public alike.

In the interview, conducted last week and rapidly gaining traction online, Bowman was asked about his stance on allowing refugees from Gaza to seek refuge in the U.S.

His response was unequivocal, as he stated his full support for the measure.

The congressman emphasized the long-standing American tradition of welcoming those fleeing persecution, oppression, and violence from regions worldwide, including Palestine and various Central American and Caribbean countries.

“We are a land of immigrants, and we are a land of asylum seekers,” Bowman said, underscoring his belief in the U.S. as a sanctuary for those who wish.

He added, “They’re coming here to contribute to our economy, which 99.9 percent of them are. We’ve always been a place to open our doors to immigrants coming here. So fully support that. And also, fully support amnesty for the migrants who have been here for quite some time.”

Furthermore, during the same interview, Bowman touched upon controversial topics related to U.S. foreign policy and domestic issues.

He criticized past American foreign policies as being rooted in “racism” and “imperialism” and voiced his support for reparations.

His remarks are indicative of his broader critique of historical U.S. international relations, particularly concerning Africa.

Aside from his policy positions, Bowman has gained notoriety for his dramatic actions in Congress, such as pulling a fire alarm to delay a vote.

Recently, he was also misled by a parody account into inviting a fictitious “Gaza rabbi” to host a fundraiser, an incident that highlights the naiveness of the Left.

Bowman’s stance on these issues reflects a progressive viewpoint that aligns with the broader Radical Left.

His advocacy for refugees and illegal immigrants is part of a larger debate regarding change in the immigration process, border security, and America First politics.

As debates over immigration and foreign policy continue to evolve, Bowman’s outspoken views are likely to influence discussions within the Democratic Party and the Radical Left.

The Left has no care for this nation, but instead spends all of their time focusing on foreign terrorists, and illegal immigrants, and sending stolen taxpayer dollars overseas.

We must not allow this to continue any longer, and we must elect leaders who will put the needs of the nation first.

Donald Trump’s new election meeting with DeSantis has Democrats horrified and supporters excited

0

Ron DeSantis and Donald Trump have had an interesting past. But now, a shocking new development could change everything.

And Donald Trump’s new election meeting with DeSantis has Democrats horrified and supporters excited.

Recent reports state that Florida Republican Governor Ron DeSantis and former President Donald Trump met in private on Sunday to talk about cooperating in the next election.

The encounter took place in Miami, Florida, and was arranged by Trump friend and DeSantis associate Steve Witkoff, a real estate broker. Witkoff was present during the meeting also.

According to the New York Times, Witkoff owns Shell Bay, a golf club and development, where the three men “met alone in a private room.”

According to the source, DeSantis wants to regain his status as a serious contender in the 2028 presidential election, while Trump needs his assistance with fundraising to match President Joe Biden’s contributions.

According to POLITICO, the meeting marked a “pivotal turn” that “could help restore” the two parties’ relationship prior to the primary season.

During the primary, the former president attacked DeSantis often. In response, the governor intensified his criticism of Trump as the contest intensified.

Both men’s comments after DeSantis withdrew from the race and backed Trump suggested that animosity still existed.

Following his announcement to friends and funders earlier this month that he would be holding a fundraiser for the former president at a private retreat, DeSantis called the gathering on Sunday.

Texas businessman Roy Bailey said, “I will follow the governor’s lead and I will do anything that he or President Trump ask me to do to help him win this election.”

“I know where there are DeSantis supporters all over Texas and all over the country that will want to help President Trump,” he added.

He claimed that DeSantis is “committed to helping Trump in any and every way,” which is a major win for Conservative Americans who are joining together to stop the oppression of the Left.

Bailey added that “If we can unlock and motivate our donors for Trump and put more fuel in his tank, that’s what we want to do, and that’s what we need to do to make sure [President Joe] Biden is not reelected.”

According to the source, DeSantis’ unwavering support for Trump’s campaign is a huge advantage for him because “DeSantis’ finance committee is full of fundraisers with massive networks” who can provide financial contributions.

This meeting comes at a critical time in which the Radical Left is doing everything they can to stop Trump from raising support on the campaign trail.

The Left is keeping Trump trapped in a courtroom where he is unable to raise money or resources for his re-election campaign which is exactly what the Left wants.

We cannot allow the Left to divide us even further, and American patriots must join together to stop the oppression of the Left.

Joe Biden and the Left cannot stand against us all, and we must take to the polls to make our voices heard.

Supreme Court questions legitimacy of Jack Smith in prosecuting Trump

0

The Left has weaponized the justice system in ways that most people cannot imagine. And they thought they were so well protected that they didn’t see this coming.

Because in a new shocking development, the Supreme Court is questioning the legitimacy of Jack Smith in prosecuting Trump.

Ever since Donald Trump entered the political scene, the Left has been doing everything they can to oppose him and stop him from taking office.

They have accused him of various things that have been proven false, they have slandered and attacked him publicly, and they have even used the justice system to prosecute him.

Most recently, it has been the weaponization of the justice system by Joe Biden and the Radical Left that has Americans outraged.

Many people are also concerned that if the Left can use the justice system to go after their political rivals, what is to stop them from going after American citizens who simply disagree with them?

Recently, the conversation has focused on the legitimacy of the claims brought against Trump with many people pointing at similar scenarios with Biden yet the corrupt President does not get charged and Trump does.

Most clearly, with the classified docs case, Special Counsel Hur refused to bring charges against Biden because he was an “old man” yet the Left brought the same charges against Trump.

But now, as many Americans push back, higher courts in the US are starting to weigh in on the proceedings, and many of them are upsetting the Left.

And now, Justice Clarence Thomas questioned the validity of special counsel Jack Smith’s appointment to pursue Donald Trump during the Supreme Court’s hearing on presidential immunity on Thursday.

Whether Trump enjoys constitutional presidential immunity from prosecution for acts taken while in office is at the center of the court’s ongoing deliberations.

According to Fox News, Thomas’ inquiry looked into Smith’s and the Office of Special Counsel’s jurisdiction to file charges against Trump.

Thomas questioned Trump’s lawyer, John Sauer, wondering if the president’s counsel had objected to the special counsel’s appointment in the ongoing legal dispute.

Thomas asked, “Did you, in this litigation, challenge the appointment of special counsel?”

Trump’s lawyer replied, “It points to a very important issue here because one of [the special counsel’s] arguments is, of course, that we should have this presumption of regularity.”

“That runs into the reality that we have here an extraordinary prosecutorial power being exercised by someone who was never nominated by the president or confirmed by the Senate at any time. So we agree with that position. We hadn’t raised it yet in this case when this case went up on appeal,” he added.

The legal power of Smith to prosecute Trump was also questioned by former US attorneys general Meese and Mukasey in a noteworthy amicus brief that was submitted to the Supreme Court in March.

They contended that, as Smith was never properly nominated and confirmed by the Senate, his role as special counsel does not satisfy the requirements for an appropriate appointment as a federal officer.

They argued, “Neither Smith nor the position of special counsel under which he purportedly acts meets those criteria.”

“He wields tremendous power, effectively answerable to no one, by design. And that is a serious problem for the rule of law — whatever one may think of former President Trump or the conduct on January 6, 2021, that Smith challenges in the underlying case,” they added.

The main topic of discussion for the Supreme Court is Trump’s assertion of immunity from prosecution in connection with the events of January 6.

If a court were to rule against presidential immunity, Trump might be held criminally accountable for what he did that day.

Liberal state betrayed because of their own Radical policies

0

The Radical Left is always passing laws that are extremely radical and harmful. But they never expected this to happen.

And a liberal state was betrayed because of their own Radical policies.

A referendum to overturn California’s failed police reform measures has garnered significant support from residents, which lawmakers say is imperative to pass in order to restore public safety across the state.

Proposition 47, which became law in 2014, reclassified several felonies as misdemeanors including retail and property theft, in addition to a wide range of drug possession convictions.

The Democratic law was introduced as an effort to reduce incarcerations.

However, the Radical effort has only significantly increased crime due to a lack of accountability for criminals.

According to the amendments to Prop 47, repeated thefts for individuals who steal less than $950 will be felony charges as long as they have two or more prior theft-related conditions. They are currently considered misdemeanors.

Furthermore, it would allow the total value of stolen property from many crimes to be put together, which could result in repeat offenders being charged with felonies if the total exceeds $950.

Numerous convictions for drug possession that were formerly felonies were also reduced to misdemeanors.

If approved, it will make selling lethal dosages of fentanyl illegal and add it to the list of narcotics that are illegal to possess with a firearm, along with heroin, cocaine, and methamphetamine.

Additionally, drug traffickers may be charged with murder if their actions cause deaths.

This would make it possible to punish dealers more severely if their trafficking caused a fatality or severe damage.

The Homelessness, Drug Addiction, and Theft Reduction Act is the name of the amendment that will be presented as an initiative on the state ballot in November.

Since then, the initiative has garnered a great deal of support; Californians have signed over 900,000 petitions in favor of it, significantly beyond the 500,000 signatures needed to be on the ballot.

Progressive lawmakers and district attorneys from both political parties have also endorsed the reform bills.

According to Sacramento County District Attorney Thien Ho, who backed the initiative, Golden State citizens waited in line for hours to sign the petition.

According to a Fox News report, Ho said, “That’s how popular it is. That’s the sentiment of people, and it’s across all spectrums.”

He added that the push “cuts across party lines and cuts across racial lines, social and economic lines. It’s small businesses, big businesses, everyday people” who are “passionate” about the efforts happening.

This bipartisan support shows just how crippling the Radical Left’s agenda is, and it highlights that even though the media tries to make it seem like Americans love the Left, this could not be further from the truth.

We must learn from the past and we cannot elect leaders who will harm America instead of improving it.

Joe Biden hit with staggering report that has left him and Democrats terrified

0

The Radical Left has been trying to keep their stranglehold over America for years now. But things are not going according to their plan.

And now Joe Biden has been hit with a staggering report that has left him and the Democrats terrified.

Joe Biden and the Left have trapped America under their iron fist and are forcing everyone to obey their Radical Agenda.

But while the Left has been successful in destroying this country, they have quickly found out that most Americans hate what they are doing and are now starting to fight back.

Under Joe Biden’s “leadership,” the economy has gone into the toilet, our border security is nonexistent, crime has skyrocketed, the quality of life for millions of Americans is the worst it has ever been, and yet the Radical Left refuses to act on any of this.

Instead of passing bills that will improve the lives of American citizens, it seems like the Left has been passing only bills that hurt Americans and benefit foreigners.

Many of the recent bills from the Left have given free lodging, food, clothing, etc. to illegal immigrants living in this nation all while the average American family struggles with the same things because of Joe Biden.

Other bills see hundreds of billions of taxpayer dollars going into foreign countries instead of re-investing into America’s future.

And now, according to a recent poll, the majority of Americans think that what the US is spending on overseas aid is excessive.

This comes as the US Congress just recently authorized a foreign aid package worth $95 billion that will be paid by taxpayers and given to Taiwan, Israel, and Ukraine.

In a recent Rasmussen Reports survey, 57% of prospective US voters expressed the opinion that US government spending on international aid is excessive.

In contrast, 23% of respondents felt that the level of foreign spending was about right, while 10% of respondents indicated that it is not enough.

The question the survey asked was, “In general, does the US government spend too much or not enough for foreign aid? Or is the amount of foreign aid spending about right?”

During the period of April 16–18, 1,126 likely US voters participated in the nationwide survey. The sampling error for the margin is +/- 3.

Following a vote in the House on Saturday morning, the $95 billion foreign aid package was passed, and on Tuesday night, the US Senate followed suit.

Israel will get $26 billion, Taiwan will get $8 billion, and Ukraine will receive $61 billion.

Notably, the poll’s results indicate that the US supports funding Israel more than it does Ukraine.

Three questions were asked: two asked about voters’ opinions on spending money in Israel and Ukraine separately, and one asked about total support to foreign countries.

Republicans in particular have voiced dissatisfaction with Congress’s distribution of billions of taxpayer dollars to foreign nations while the border remains unsecured to halt illegal immigration, making foreign aid a divisive topic among American voters.

Congress came under fire for approving the plan even though it did not include money for US southern border security measures.

This election year, the border has become a major concern for Americans.

Rather than supporting the US border, the package gave $300 million to the police and border officials in Ukraine.

How much longer will we allow the Radical Left to steal our money, neglect our country, and give our resources to countries halfway across the world?

We must elect leaders who will prioritize the health and safety of our own nation first.

Kamala Harris’ newest remarks have people disgusted and scratching their heads

Like the president, Kamala Harris cannot help but make some of the most outrageous comments ever. But now, this recent incident takes the cake.

Because Kamala Harris’ newest remarks have people disgusted and confused.

Kamala Harris has reiterated her belief that people should not be imprisoned for merely consuming marijuana; this is a very different stance from the one she took when she was the district attorney for San Francisco.

Mercury News reports that Harris oversaw 1,956 convictions connected to cannabis during her tenure as a prosecutor in the Bay Area.

On Thursday, Harris discussed the measures the Biden administration has done to increase the number of people with criminal histories who can apply for Pell grants and small business loans during a roundtable discussion for Second Chance Month.

She highlighted the federal government’s record on both fronts, particularly with regard to those with marijuana-related criminal histories.

“Many Americans who have served their time still face obstacles to their success, and one way for us to remove some of those other obstacles is to issue pardons and commutations,” she said.

She stated, “We have pardoned all people for federal convictions for simple marijuana possession.”

“I just don’t think people should have to go to jail for smoking weed, and these pardons have been issued as an extension of that approach,” she added.

Harris stated that the US needed to be “smarter” about redemption before handing the reins to special guest Kim Kardashian.

In a post published on X five days prior, Harris marked 4/20 by stating that “we must change our nation’s approach to marijuana while reforming the justice system so it finally lives up to its name.” Many were quick to point out her inconsistency.

Frontlines contributor Savanah Hernandez took to X to write, “Kamala posting this like she didn’t build her entire career off of jailing people for this very thing.”

Another user pointed out that Kamala Harris “sent them there.”

Though it’s unclear when a decision will be made, Forbes reports that the Drug Enforcement Agency is reportedly thinking of moving marijuana from its current Schedule I status as a controlled narcotic to Schedule III status.

The American people have been quick to point out the hypocrisy of Harris and they are frustrated with her incompetence and lack of honesty.

Both Joe Biden and Kamala Harris have made comments that make no sense or are completely hypocritical to their past views and beliefs.

How much longer will America keep electing leaders who refuse to abide by the values and morals that this great nation was founded on?

We must hold these politicians accountable for their actions, and we cannot sit idly by as they push their Radical agendas on the world.

Attack on US forces in Middle East has Biden scrambling to protect our troops

Joe Biden’s horrible foreign policies have left US forces open to attack. And now people are rushing to help.

Because an attack on US forces in the Middle East has left Biden scrambling to protect our troops.

This week, terrorists from Palestine opened fire on a pier that American forces are building in the Mediterranean Sea to help transport supplies into the Gaza Strip.

The Israel Defense Forces (IDF) and representatives of the UN were visiting the project off the shore of central Gaza on Wednesday when the mortar attack took place.

While the attack happened, UN officials “entered protected spaces following the instructions of IDF soldiers in the area.”

The IDF said, “The terrorist organizations continue to systematically harm humanitarian efforts while risking the lives of UN workers, while Israel allows the supply of aid to the residents of the Gaza Strip.”

According to The Times of Israel, the U.N. verified that there had been a terrorist incident at the location while they were examining the pier.

Despite the fact that Gaza is home to several Palestinian terrorist organizations, none of them has taken official credit for the attack.

According to the Associated Press, a Hamas representative informed the newspaper that the organization would “resist any foreign military presence involved with the port project.”

According to the report, relief organizations have voiced grave concerns regarding their safety in light of the area’s ongoing hostilities and the existence of terrorist organizations.

Following reports that the attack had partially damaged the area used for the marshaling yard for US humanitarian aid deliveries off the shore of Gaza, the US Department of Defense made a signal on Thursday that it was keeping an eye on the situation.

According to ABC News, President Joe Biden’s proposed pier project in Gaza is anticipated to come at a cost to US taxpayers of about $200 million for a limited period of time.

When the project was announced last month, Biden claimed, “No U.S. boots will be on the ground.”

He added, “A temporary pier will enable a massive increase in the amount of humanitarian assistance getting into Gaza every day.”

And while getting aid to people who need it is certainly an important thing to do, Biden’s failed foreign policies have left humanitarian workers open to attacks in the process.

One US official, a member of the US military, said that a “number of mortars” caused “damage” in the area of the “marshaling yard area for humanitarian assistance that will soon be delivered by sea.”

This attack once again highlights the danger these terrorist organizations in the Middle East pose to the US and her allies.

The leading Republican on the Senate Armed Services Committee, Sen. Roger Wicker (Miss.), reiterated his earlier condemnation of the mission, stating that it was “ill-conceived from the start” as soon as word of the mortar bombardment spread.

Wicker “The risks to Americans will only intensify. President Biden should never have put our men and women in this position, and he should abandon this project immediately before any U.S. troops are injured.”

We must demand our elected leaders take action to ensure the safety of US troops and citizens.

Ron DeSantis makes a bold announcement that has supporters celebrating

0

Ever since Ron DeSantis announced he would be stepping back from the presidential race, DeSantis has been quiet. But he is still one of the greatest conservative leaders in this nation.

And now, DeSantis has made a bold announcement that has his supporters celebrating.

For years now, under the direction and leadership of Ron DeSantis, Florida has held fast to American principles and been a staunch opponent to the agenda of the Radical Left.

And in the midst of a Radical Biden administration, Governor DeSantis has led the charge against the oppression of the Left.

While the nation crumbles around them and gives in to Radical demands, Florida has refused to turn its back on America.

And now, while countless young adults across the nation have started leading mass protests and spewing anti-American rhetoric, Florida has a response.

Florida Governor Ron DeSantis declared this week at a press conference that his state will not put up with demonstrators blocking roads and anti-Semites abusing Jews on college campuses, as some of the photographs that have gone viral this week have shown.

At the press conference, DeSantis said, “You think about what happened when you have these Hamas demonstrators out. They’re taking over bridges and they’re taking over roads.”

“First of all, you don’t have a right to do that. You have someone get stuck in traffic … someone may need to get to a hospital, someone may need to pick up a child somewhere, and you’re just gonna commandeer the road because you have this ideological predilection?” he added.

He then pointed out how his state had addressed these protests in the past, “They tried to do that in Miami and what happened? In 10 minutes, they got dragged off the road where they belong. And we are not gonna tolerate that.”

The governor then spoke about the anti-Semitic demonstrators who this week on college campuses had perpetrated violent crimes against Jews and proclaimed support for terrorist organizations.

DeSantis said, “Some of the stuff with the Hamas, I think, is absurd that someone would go out and demonstrate on that.”

He added, “But when you’re chasing Jewish students around when you’re not letting a Jewish professor enter a building when you’re targeting people like that, that’s not free speech. I mean, that’s harassment, that violates appropriate conduct.”

“And yet at Columbia, at Yale, all these places, those guys, those folks rule the roost,” he continued.

“They do whatever they want, and these administrators and the presidents of these universities are weak, they’re scared, and they don’t do anything.”

However, DeSantis pivoted to highlight what exactly would happen if any radical student tried that in his state:

“You know, you do that in Florida at our universities, we’re showing you the door, you’re gonna be expelled when you’re doing that stuff. And you know what? The minute people start to face consequences, you are not gonna see this nonsense going on,” he emphatically stated.

DeSantis will not put up with the harmful and destructive anti-America agenda of the Radical Left, and he will not tolerate that sort of dangerous behavior in his state.

America needs more leaders like DeSantis who won’t be scared of the Left, and who will fight to protect the American values that this nation was built on.
