U.S. Senate candidate J.D. Vance said on Tuesday that his first order of business if elected would be to fight for legislation that would double the number of agents stationed at the U.S.-Mexico border and finish building a border wall. The former Marine and Iraq War veteran told Republicans at a local sports bar that the situation at the southern border has gotten so out of hand that the Marine Corps should be sent there. "The drug cartels that are there are some of the most vicious people in the world," Vance said. "We're the greatest country in the world and we're letting a bunch of criminal gangs use

Comments:

I like J.D. Vance a lot. I liked his book, Hillbilly Elegy, and I like that he saw the error of his ways in disliking Trump when he realized the elites don't care about America and Trump obviously does, and his policies have helped us so much, especially the working class. Vance said he thought Trump's rhetoric was over the top but then he realized he and others did not understand Trump's sense of humor. I also like Josh Mandel, who is running in the primary, but I think Vance might be the stronger person.

Isn't this the mouthy tool that used to bash Trump all the time until he decided on a career in politics? I smell another Dan Crenshaw here. Another tough talker that turns to Play-Doh as soon as he settles into his new life among the DC patricians. My skepticism runs high.

It's not just the criminal gangs in Mexico, the worst gangs are the ones running the government.

I remember this guy he hated the mean tweeter before he liked the mean tweeter. I get it now say what you have to say to win then settle in to a cushy job of do-nothing about anything. I don't trust Vance he has to go a long way before I'm convinced that his wounds are healed. There are many like him already in the republican party. The go with the flow crowd is everywhere.

You could have a hundred thousand dedicated Border Patrol Agents and a completed effective borderline barrier (the wall) along the entire borderline, but as long as potential illegal aliens from all over the world get the word that Biden and crew are going to allow them to unlawfully enter and stay in the USA for partisan political purposes they will continue to come in ever increasing numbers, that’s just common sense. If the wimpy Republicans ever allow the leftist and socialist Democrats to grant “path to citizenship” amnesties to untold millions of poor and uneducated illegal aliens designed to transform them into future leftist and socialist Democrat voters, and permanently change the voter demographics of the country, the wimpy Republicans will be out in the cold as far as ever again controlling the Congress or the White House in the future. That’s also simply common sense.

I was horrified when Donald Trump began to rise in the Republican primary. I was already so angry with the R establishment for pushing JEB! I wanted a real Conservative, not a crude and mouthy rich guy from NYC. Then I began to see how the press lied about him, and another Ldotter told me that Trump was vetting all the rest of the candidates for us. I had to pray to let God help me with the anger that had been growing in me. Once I let go of it, I began to see that only a personality like Trump could rise above the R establishment and had any chance to defeat Hillary (remember her?). I still think that the Donald should reserve his ire for the most egregious cases of idiocy (leftist wokeism and Dem-MSM dishonesty). There actually are people who are sick and tired of the Monstrous deceit of the Left, but they are also sick and tired of Trump. We need these folks on our side. We have seen many times that Trump can do the dignified Presidential act. He does it very well, in fact. So I will give JD Vance the benefit of the doubt. For now. And may God protect Donald Trump and may He preserve our beloved nation. Ramona (the Pest)

COVID-19 policies had disastrous results on children, especially in California, according to medical researchers at the University of California San Francisco. Jeanne Noble, director of COVID response in the UCSF emergency department, is finishing an academic manuscript on the mental health toll on kids from lockdown policies. She shared a presentation on its major points with Just the News. Suicides in the Golden State last year jumped by 24% for Californians under 18 but fell by 11% for adults, showing how children were uniquely affected by "profound social isolation and loss of essential social supports traditionally provided by in-person school," the presentation says. Children requiring emergency mental health services jumped last year

It's frustrating to hear people on the Right, including some who should know better, claim there's "no evidence" of significant, possibly outcome-changing fraud in the last presidential election — even as the forensic audit in Arizona uncovers multiple discrepancies. Clearly, they're confusing "evidence" with "proof." No, there may not be absolute, incontrovertible proof of election fraud — yet. But there is plenty of evidence, good reasons a rational person might question the outcome. Here are ten that come to mind, in no particular order: Eyewitness testimony. Since November 3, hundreds of people have come forward to report that they personally witnessed various irregularities

The Arabs are saying that the Americans are mistaken if they think that the war on terrorism will end with the withdrawal of the US troops from Afghanistan. Adib warned that the US will pay the price for its exit from Afghanistan. "The cost of the withdrawal will be greater and more dangerous for America and the entire world," he said. "Al-Qaeda and the Taliban are preparing to establish a state whose features will be close to those of ISIS. The threat of ISIS is still there and its cells are still spread everywhere." — Mounir Adib, Egyptian expert on Islamic movements and international terrorism, Annaharar.com, June 5, 2021.

We are living in a weird world of constant deception and bizarre government policies. Sometimes the liars are easily exposed, usually the policies are facially absurd, and this week there are 10 such examples. 1. Claiming that the U.S. is responsible for Cuba’s failed state Pinning the blame for Cuba’s failures on the U.S. is the argument of people like Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez. (The other being the nonsense about Cuba’s great medical care and universal literacy.) (Snip) 2. Claiming that BLM cares about Blacks and police oppression of them Not only does the rebellion in Cuba reveal the shortcomings of this socialist hellhole, but it forces Black Lives Matter to reveal its Marxist sympathies.

On July 27, House Speaker Nancy Pelosi’s select committee to investigate events surrounding the Jan. 6 protests at the Capitol will hold its first hearing. The panel is part of a broader effort to paint the demonstration as an “insurrection,” and thereby characterize nearly 75 million Donald Trump voters as “domestic terrorists.” But there’s another reason Pelosi and her colleagues, law enforcement, and the press are pushing the insurrection narrative—to cover up the one obvious crime committed that day in the Capitol building, a murder.

Judge G. Michael Harvey sounded floored. During a detention hearing this week for Robert Morss, arrested last month for his involvement in the Capitol protest, a federal prosecutor told Harvey she needed permission from the government before she could turn over to him a slice of video related to Morss’ case. Joe Biden’s Justice Department continues to seek pre-trial detention for people who protested Biden’s election on January 6; prosecutors want to keep Morss, an Army ranger and high school history teacher with no criminal record, behind bars until his trial can begin next year. But assistant U.S. Attorney Melissa Jackson hesitated when Judge Harvey asked to see the footage captured

With about a third of adults in the U.S. still completely unvaccinated, and cases of COVID-19 on the rise, the U.S. Surgeon General is calling for a war against "health misinformation." On Thursday, Dr. Vivek Murthy is releasing the first Surgeon General's advisory of his time serving in the Biden administration, describing the "urgent threat" posed by the rise of false information around COVID-19 — one that continues to put "lives at risk" and prolong the pandemic. Murthy says Americans must do their part to fight misinformation. "COVID has really brought into sharp focus the full extent of damage that health misinformation is doing," Murthy told NPR in an exclusive interview

If the late Jeffrey Epstein's alleged partner in sex trafficking can be granted a laptop 13 hours a day to actively participate in her defense, why not January 6 defendants? The jailhouse accommodation for Ghislaine Maxwell is the most prominent example cited in a bail application for alleged Capitol rioter Dominic Pezzola, submitted to D.C. federal court Friday. The 43-year-old veteran, now incarcerated in D.C. jail for 150 days, has been effectively shut out of his own defense in violation of constitutional guarantees specifically for defendants, not just their counsel, the filing says. Not only is Pezzola unable to "adequately" view the voluminous text, audio and video evidence held by the prosecution,

President Biden used today the right words, up to a point, to address the unprecedented revolt in Cuba, the Communist-ruled island mere 330 miles off of Miami. Is he ready, though, to help Cubans bring an end to the Castro-made Caribbean eyesore, while charting a new course for the future? (Snip) While the uprising intensified today, mostly in peaceful demonstrations where anti-communist slogans were shouted by American flag wavers, the regime reacted violently. There were reports of casualties in Havana and elsewhere.

Under the plan, the police department would be replaced in the charter with a public safety department but doesn't outline how the department will work or be structured.

They can’t stand other opinions. They can’t. They cannot be allowed to live. The people who hold them must be targeted and smeared. All must bow before the unholy altar of American progressivism. If you can’t convince them, destroy them, or deprogram them. That’s what The Washington Post’s Eugene Robinson and Nikole Hannah-Jones wanted yesterday. Grabien’s Tom Elliott clipped the madness. People who support Trump are mentally defective, so they must be deprogrammed. What does that mean? Sounds Stalinist in the extreme. It also reeks of Chinese Cultural Revolution underpinnings. Those who do not believe what we believe are off to the camps. It’s nothing new.

Those laws were enacted in Arizona, Iowa, Florida, Kentucky, Louisiana, Texas and Utah, the center found.
