There's a solution to this.
...On Friday, Mexican authorities refused to give clearance to land to a U.S. military plane that was being used to move a group of migrants into Mexico, NBC News reported. The reason for the denial of the flight remains unclear, but the plane never took off....
Parachute training. Doesn't have to be elaborate, either. "Pull this string!"
Another solution?
Helicopters.
'Schmeissed' is a term used to describe the effects of a German machine gun.
...A key order signed by Trump on Monday is to scrap the Biden administration’s push for 50% of all new vehicles sold in the US to be electric by 2030. While this was only ever a goal and not legally binding, many car manufacturers had thrown their support behind it.
Federal funding for electric vehicle chargers will also be pulled under the new administration. In 2021, Biden allocated $7.5 billion to establish a national network of EV chargers, hoping that as many as 500,000 would be built by 2030....--AOSHQ quoting Car Scoops
There are EPA orders which correspond with the asinine "50%" goal.
...Additionally, Trump directed the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) to reconsider federal emissions rules set under Biden. These rules would have required automakers to ensure that 30% to 56% of their vehicle sales were EVs by 2032....
"Reconsider" in Trump-ese means "Dump this crap or you're fired and I'll find someone else to do it."
Winning and winning and winning....
Wisconsin will never notice that Trump stopped funding EV chargers, as there are only 2 or 3 in operation Statewide.
Soon they will be rusted hulks or--perhaps--sold as "curios."
Other potential rusted hulks or curios are found in this chart. 17 of 18 are EV or Hybrid. Shock!!
This will be "Illegals, Part Two"
President Donald J. Trump has given the Department of Homeland Security (DHS) and U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement Agency (ICE) the green light to review the cases of around 1.5 million illegal immigrants, opening the door to their possible deportations. Under former President Joe Biden, these individuals were granted parole status through programs like Temporary Protected Status (TPS), the CBP One app, and CHNV (Cuba, Haiti, Nicaragua, and Venezuela) immigration flights. ...
Say "buh-bye!!"......
Second City Cop is exactly that: he's a Chicago copper with a lot of years under his belt. We're going to excerpt far more than "fair use" here, but there's still a lot left over and it's worth the read; he calls out the prosecutors and judges for exactly what they were (and still are): pieces of s**t.
...the Capitol Police are without a doubt, the most corrupt "police force" currently in existence. They are nothing more than a want-to-be Praetorian Guard, accountable to no one except whomever is currently at the wheels of power. They are hired, fired, promoted and protected based solely on political affiliation, not actual qualifications. If any other police officer had shot an unarmed woman climbing through a window to escape a dead end hallway she was being crushed in, guess where they'd be? And if any other police beat an unconscious woman to death in the Capitol tunnels, guess where they'd be? There's video of both of these incidents and more....easily findable with a basic search.
We've also seen the footage of Capitol Police opening the doors to the Capitol and welcoming protestors walking through. Some exchanged waves and handshakes, and even gave directions. You cannot welcome people into a building you're supposed to be protecting, treat them politely as guests, then lock the doors and claim trespassing. Combine all of that with the still unrevealed fbi undercover operatives, the assorted panty-fa pretenders dressed as Trump supporters, the other plants on radios directing people to which doors were about to be opened.....cops are supposed to be bullshit detectors and all our alarm bells were ringing off the hook.
For all the screaming about "insurrection" and "treason," there still hasn't been a single charge of either levied against any from that day. However, there have been many hundreds charged with "trespassing," a tiny misdemeanor in just about every circumstances as long as a gun wasn't present, and sentences ranging up to (and beyond) four years. And that doesn't even count those held for three years and more without trial....
That's as good a summary as you'll ever get.
Now that Trump has ripped the band-aid off and called the cartels 'foreign terrorist entities,' they are upping the ante.
An American hiker was shot--twice--by cartel members who were apparently smuggling drugs or sex/work slaves into America. This happened in Southern California.
Note well: a few days back cartel operatives were arrested on I-10 in Arizona carrying 10,000 rounds of .50BMG and 19,000++ rounds of .223.
This might become extremely spicy.
It'll come out whether you like it or not, Johnson.
... An aide to Speaker Johnson reportedly urged Republicans against subpoenaing January 6 ‘star witness’ Cassidy Hutchinson last June as part of their investigation into J6 to prevent the release of sexually explicit texts that lawmakers sent her, according to the Washington Post....
I'm sure that most of you are shocked! SHOCKED!!! to learn that Members of Congress would like to screw the brains out of this lying toad-ette Hutchinson. And you would be shocked to know that those messages came from Liz Cheney, should that be the case.
All I want to know is how much money-laundering is going on into overseas accounts--or those of the wife, children, and siblings.
Don't really care about who's screwing who, except in the case of pedophiles. For them, we have a few wood chippers ready to go.
Apparently the "SHINY OBJECT!!!!!" Republicans in the Wisconsin Legislature are preparing a bill which would force municipalities to cooperate with ICE in removing felon illegals (BIRM.)
It's a standard "Look a ME!!!! I'm a GOOD Boy!!!" ploy from a typical sub-average-IQ politician. We are all supposed to stand up, salute the flag, and kiss the posterior of the Brave and Stunning Patriots. (Also send money and rah-rah at his/her next local appearance but just send money is OK.)
Yah, right.
Evers was asked about that stupid plan and said that, in his mind, the Feds and the municipalities can deal with the questions all by themselves. The State doesn't have to get involved here.
Give him credit for clear thinking. Once.
It's possible that law-profs at Marquette University read opinions which run counter to theirs.
So here's a solid for them.
...Someone from Great Britain visiting the United States is subject to our laws while here, which is to say subject to our partial or territorial jurisdiction. He must drive on the right-hand side of the road rather than the left, for example. But he does not thereby owe allegiance to the United States; he is not subject to being drafted into our army; and he cannot be prosecuted for treason (as opposed to ordinary violations of law) if he takes up arms against the United States, for he has breached no oath of allegiance.
So which understanding of “subject to the jurisdiction” did the drafters of the 14th Amendment have in mind?
Happily, we don’t need to speculate, as they were asked that very question. They unambiguously stated that it meant “complete” jurisdiction, such as existed under the law at the time, the Civil Rights Act of 1866, which excluded from citizenship those born on U.S. soil who were “subject to a foreign power.”...
The essay also mentions the dicta in Slaughterhouse Cases:
...“[t]he phrase, ‘subject to its jurisdiction’ was intended to exclude from its operation children of ministers, consuls, and citizens or subjects of foreign States born within the United States.”
Then mentions Elk:
...It then confirmed that understanding in the 1884 case of Elk v. Wilkins, holding that the “subject to the jurisdiction” phrase required that one be “not merely subject in some respect or degree to the jurisdiction of the United States, but completely subject to their political jurisdiction, and owing them direct and immediate allegiance.”...
All that is aside from the inanity of granting citizenship to a person who is ILLEGALLY within the US, a construct which would demonstrate certifiable insanity in the holder thereof.
Finally,
...More fundamentally, this understanding of the Citizenship Clause is the only one compatible with the consent of the governed principle articulated in the Declaration of Independence. ...
Might take more than an MU law-prof's smarts to grok that, but we'll leave it to them.
One more thing: The Supremes NEVER ruled on 'birthright citizenship from illegal moms.' There IS a ruling, but the parent(s) were legal aliens.
What is best in life, Conan?
To crush your enemies, see them driven before you, and to hear the lamentation of their women.
The usual manipulation and lying about "chillllrrrren!!!" from the Usual Suspects at the link above.
Not that I like this southern-fried potato, but....
James Carville does not back down when confronted about his comments that Democrat messaging is 'too feminine':
Carville: "If you start speaking like NPR, you're going to lose votes. I just don't like the term communities of color.
I live in New Orleans. They got three guys on the street corner. 'Hey fellas how are things in the communities of color today?' They said 'What is this son of a bitch talking about? Jive ass bastard out of here.'"
"We started on this coded language and we let it get away from us."
"Guess where our young male number is going? In the toilet. Because Democrat messaging is too feminine. It just is."Jonathan Capehart asks Carville about his '"Democratic culture has too many preachy females. Too much 'Don't eat Hamburgers, don't watch football, wear a condom'. Man, shit, leave me alone." --AOSHQ quoting Eric Abbenante
Same with K-12 schools, by the way. A whole lotta feminizing goin'on.
There are plenty of Suddenly Smart "experts"--including Dershowitz--who are very happy to ignore the history of the 14th and the debates surrounding it, not to mention SCOTUS decisions which do not favor their "magic dirt" theory of citizenship.
...the whole purpose of the Fourteenth Amendment was to grant citizenship to former slaves who obviously were not connected to any other country or sovereign. In the Slaughter-House Cases, 83 U.S. 36 (1872), the court ruled:
...That [the Fourteenth Amendment’s] main purpose was to establish the citizenship of the negro can admit of no doubt. The phrase ‘subject to its jurisdiction’ was intended to exclude from its operation children of ministers, consuls, and citizens or subjects of foreign States born within the United States.”...
Yes, when I studied civics, the Slaughter-House cases were part of the coursework. Apparently they are no longer studied in law schools such as Marquette and wherever Dersh teaches. Too bad, eh?
But that's not all.
... This was further confirmed by the Court in 1884 (in Elk v. Wilkins, 112 U.S. 94) when the Court stated that the idea of birthright citizenship did not apply to Native American tribes which were nonetheless within the borders of the United States.....
“[The Fourteenth Amendment] contemplates two sources of citizenship, and two sources only: birth and naturalization. The persons declared to be citizens are ‘all persons born or naturalized in the United States, and subject to the jurisdiction thereof.’ The evident meaning of these last words is, not merely subject in some respect or degree to the jurisdiction of the United States, but completely subject to their political jurisdiction, and owing them direct and immediate allegiance. And the words relate to the time of birth in the one case, as they do to the time of naturalization in the other. Persons not thus subject to the jurisdiction of the United States at the time of birth cannot become so afterwards, except by being naturalized, either individually, as by proceedings under the naturalization acts; or collectively, as by the force of a treaty by which foreign territory is acquired. Indians born within the territorial limits of the United States, members of, and owing immediate allegiance to, one of the Indian tribes (an alien though dependent power,) although in a geographical sense born in the United States, are no more ‘born in the United States and subject to the jurisdiction thereof,’ within the meaning of the first section of the Fourteenth Amendment, than the children of subjects of any foreign government born within the domain of that government, or the children born within the United States, of ambassadors or other public ministers of foreign nations.”
Trump is right, of course. However, CJ Julia Roberts, Manic Libertarian Gorsuch, and the "Blank Sheet" Babe are likely to go with Magic Dirt.........because.
Oh, well.
Nah, he's not really doing an eye-roll.
Listening to that Bishop-ette (faux Bish) lecturing with her nasal-problem voice gave me the eye-roll. Vance contained himself..........mostly.
He should have gotten up and walked out.
From this morning's Carlson email:
RNC chair Michael Whatley gave an interview a few days before Monday’s inauguration, wisely assessing that his party’s most important new job is to make sure “Trump voters become Republican voters.”...
Vos likes to think taxpayer money is actually HIS money to spend, whether on his favorite donors or on the waaaaayyyyyyy-overfunded Publick Screwels.
We know who your toadies are, Robin. They can be primaried, just like what happened to you and a few of your other butt-boys & girls.
Whatley is right, pal.
About 50 years overdue, but finally, the LBJ "Affirmative Action" EO is erased.
No more "official & endorsed" anti-white male discrimination!
Cue the wailing women and roll tape!
...Regarding the border, Trump is working to reverse Biden’s executive orders that reinstated catch-and-release, halted criminal illegal alien deportations, and granted government-funded benefits for illegal aliens....
Deficit reduction, one EO at a time.
Trump stops wasting money.
And the Gov-Twit of Wisconsin starts wasting money on the same scam.
These 'offices' are make-work programs for otherwise-unemployable Democrat operatives and fast-talkers.
The lines, they are drawn.
This appears to be the Democrat Party play of the decade. Variations on the play showed up at the Kavanaugh hearings and the Trump "rape" trial.
Always involves a Democrat law firm (b/c they specialize in dirty tricks and carefully suborning perjury), a 'late entry' in the confirmation hearings, and a woman who appears to be mentally ill.
...Danielle Dietrich, the estranged ex-sister-in-law of Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth, who is now claiming he abused his ex-wife, is a lifelong Democrat who is represented by a lawyer working for a prominent Democratic Party-connected firm....
Let's get this babe in front of a TV camera and ask a lot of questions. That'll be fun.
This bitch slow-walked the release of the J6 political prisoners.
Trump fast-pitched her out of a job.
...Colette Peters has resigned as Director of the Bureau of Prisons after 30 months on the job just as President Donald Trump was inaugurated on Monday. Deputy Director William Lathrop will take over as acting director. An agency outsider, Peters took the BOP job after heading the Oregon Department of Corrections....AOSHQ quoting Forbes.
One hopes the door slammed her ass on the way out.
Not only did Trump EO the "gender" scam out of the FedGov.
...The federal government will also shift from using the term "gender" to "sex," and that sex is "an individual's immutable biological classification," a Trump administration official told reporters Monday.
All government agencies will ensure that official documents, including passports, visas and Global Entry cards, "accurately reflect the holder's sex," the executive order says. Also, departments running federal prisons, migrant shelters, rape shelters and other "intimate spaces" will be directed to protect single-sex spaces for privacy. And employee records will also adhere to the executive order, as will federal departments' messaging.
"Agencies are no longer going to promote gender ideology through communication forms and other messages," the official said, adding that grants and contracts will be reviewed to ensure that "federal funds shall not be used to promote gender ideology."...AOSHQ quoting CNN
The whole idea of using "gender" was to twist the English language into a pretzel. Literate people--a group which does not include "media" and most politicians--knew that "gender" has to do with a noun or pronoun (He/She), not a human being.
Game over.
This is a bit of a shocker, although if you have a long memory, you've heard about stopping foreign aid before.
President Donald J. Trump has signed an executive order halting all U.S. foreign assistance for 90 days. This suspension is intended to give his administration time to scrutinize whether these programs align with its policy objectives, although Ukraine claims its military aid is unaffected.
Trump believes the “foreign aid industry and bureaucracy are not aligned with American interests and in many cases antithetical to American values” and “serve to destabilize world peace by promoting ideas in foreign countries that are directly inverse to harmonious and stable relations internal to and among countries.”...
Well, yes. The CIA's interests do not align with those of the US population at large; they haven't since about 1960 or so. And if you think "foreign aid" is run by the State Department, you are hopeless. Put it this way: the CIA "guides" State's generosity.
