Dem Rep. Schneider on if Migrants Let
in Under Biden Get Health Benefits: Asylum
Applicants Are ‘Here Legally’
Posted By: ConservativeYankee, 10/24/2025 10:40:05 AM
On Thursday’s broadcast of C-SPAN’s “Washington Journal,” Rep. Brad Schneider (D-IL) responded to questions on whether migrants who were allowed into the country under the Biden administration would qualify for taxpayer-funded health care by saying, “It depends on the circumstance.” And “those people who have applied for asylum and are going through the process are here legally.” Host Mimi Geerges asked, “Congressman, as you know, Republicans are accusing Democrats of trying to give government health care, Medicaid to illegal immigrants. Democrats are denying that that’s the case. However, there’s a large number of people that were paroled into the country under the Biden administration. Are they considered illegal

While the government remains shut down because Democrats demand free healthcare for illegal immigrants, President Trump has ordered a sweeping audit of federal programs to ensure that other taxpayer-funded benefits are not being distributed to illegal aliens.
The order encompasses at least 28 major programs across multiple federal agencies. Housing audits include the Section 8 Housing Choice Voucher Program and public housing.
The Department of Health and Human Services is reviewing 13 programs, including Head Start, Community Health Centers, Medicaid, and the Title X Family Planning Program, as well as a range of behavioral health and substance abuse grants. Nutrition and welfare

Portfolio and Failed Attempts To Become
a Marijuana Magnate 7 replies
Rep. Jasmine Crockett (D., Texas) owned stocks in at least 25 companies that she did not disclose to the public during her first congressional run in 2022, even though she'd quietly admitted to the holdings the previous year as a Texas state legislator. Crockett also didn't reveal the stock holdings once she got to Washington in 2023.
The far-left firebrand's impressive financial portfolio—according to records obtained by the Washington Free Beacon through a public records request—clashes with her image as an eco-warrior and beacon of progressivism. Further, Crockett, a self-described civil rights attorney, was an active stakeholder in the cannabis business—seeking unsuccessfully to open marijuana dispensaries in Ohio—even as she represented,
In another example of the Trump effect, money transfer giant Western Union is reporting that its revenue from cash transfers to locations outside the U.S. has seen a 12 percent decline this year.
Migrants living in the U.S. both legally and illegally have traditionally been the greatest source of U.S. dollars flowing out of America and into foreign nations, even dwarfing the amount of foreign aid lavished on the world by the U.S. government. But with Donald Trump’s focus on immigration, Western Union is seeing far fewer customers needing their services.
Last week, Western Union CEO Devin McGranahan told investors that the company had seen a huge decline in cash transfers to
The Washington Post editorial board praised President Trump’s controversial demolition of the East Wing of the White House.
“The White House cannot simply be a museum to the past. Like America, it must evolve with the times to maintain its greatness. Strong leaders reject calcification. In that way, Trump’s undertaking is a shot across the bow at NIMBYs everywhere,” the Post’s editorial board said in an opinion piece published Saturday. Destruction of the East Wing was completed last Thursday, with excavators first spotted the Monday before the demolition.
Lefty New York City mayoral frontrunner Zohran Mamdani says NYPD Commissioner Jessica Tisch will fall behind his vision for criminal-justice reforms, insisting that if he wins the race, “everyone will follow” his lead.
Speaking on the Hell Gate podcast Friday, Mamdani, 34, was confronted with concerns that Tisch would stand against the type of reforms the Democratic Socialist and his supporters are pushing for, given her previous positions.
“Lots of people who support your candidacy care about criminal-justice reform and reforming the NYPD, and for the past year, she has stood to thwart that,” host Christopher Robbins reminded Mamdani as the host asked for an explanation as to why the frontrunner said
Catherine Connolly, a pro-immigration self-avowed socialist running as an independent, won Ireland’s 2025 presidential election in a landslide Friday, defeating both of the nominees of the country’s two largest parties.
Connolly, 68, pulled in a massive 63.4% of votes, dwarfing the 29.5% received by Fine Gael nominee Heather Humphreys and the 7.2% won by Fianna Fáil nominee Jim Gavin. In her victory speech, the socialist promised to be “an inclusive president” multiple times and expressed her desire to “shape a new republic … that values and champions diversity … and the new people that have come to our country.”
BOSTON —
Former President Joe Biden will be in Boston on Sunday to receive a lifetime achievement award from the Edward M. Kennedy Institute.
Biden is scheduled to attend the event on Sunday at the institute's Columbia Point building in Boston, where he will be honored alongside former Labor Secretary and Boston Mayor Martin J. Walsh and retired U.S. Navy Admiral Lisa Franchetti. Walsh and Franchetti will both receive Awards for Inspired Leadership, the institute said in a statement. The awards will be presented during the Edward M. Kennedy Institute's 10th Anniversary Celebration, which is the organization's major annual fundraiser. Former Secretary of State John Kerry, who served with
Gun control in America’s northern neighbor has moved into confiscation phase, as Nova Scotia, Canada’s east coast province, kicked off a pilot program of “voluntary” gun buybacks in September, while the western provinces of Alberta and Saskatchewan say they will not comply.
The national ban was originally decreed by then-Prime Minister Justin Trudeau’s government in 2020, covering 1,500 models of rifles, but has since been expanded to include more than 2,500 models. And while the ban is purported to cover “semi-automatic firearms with sustained rapid-fire capability,” the list of prohibited firearms also includes more traditional bolt-action rifles and shotguns commonly used in hunting.
A new Oklahoma law that takes effect Nov. 1 will increase the instances when a Driving Under the Influence charge can be elevated to a felony.
Passing the bill had been Job One for Jeff Murrow, executive director of Victims of Impaired Drivers, ever since his daughter was killed by a drunk driver, according to KFOR-TV.
“Marissa was killed in October of 2020 by a man that was nearly three times the legal limit. Driving the wrong way on the Kilpatrick Turnpike,” he said. "You can’t say it’s a mistake when it’s their second, third, fourth time to repeat,” Murrow explained.
Republican lawmakers are pushing for permanent fixes to address the startling number of illegal migrant truckers wreaking havoc on American highways.
In response to a growing number of fatal accidents caused by illegal migrant truck drivers, the Trump administration has mandated tougher English standards on commercial drivers and demanded state officials tighten their handling of Commercial Driver’s Licenses (CDLs). While similar reforms have been rolled back in Democratic administrations, lawmakers in Congress are touting bills that would keep these changes locked in place long after President Donald Trump leaves office.
The King County Department of Adult and Juvenile Detention (DAJD) has not only admitted to breaking state laws by hiring nearly three dozen illegal migrants as corrections officers, but has also pledged to fight the state law preventing such hiring.
In a statement to The Jason Rantz Show, DAJD said:
All are fully trained as corrections officers and authorized to work in the United States. King County is committed to safety and the fair treatment of these officers and continues to work closely with the Washington State Criminal Justice Training Commission (WSCJTC). We are keeping all available avenues of relief open at this time.

Rules by Vindman Brother Finally Reinstated

Mark Bashaw, the only member of the Armed Forces to be court-martialed for refusing to take the COVID shot, has been reinstated to the U.S. Army, promoted as if he'd never been discharged, and awarded back pay. Making the victory sweeter is the fact that he was prosecuted by none other than current Virginia congressman, then Colonel Yevgeny Semyonovich Vindman, the brother of Lieutenant Colonel Aleksandr Semyonovich Vindman, of Trump impeachment fame. Bashaw, a former USAF noncommissioned officer, had been commissioned into the Army's Medical Service Corps and was stationed at Aberdeen Proving Ground. He was charged in February 2022 with three counts of “failure to obey lawful orders.”

Rep. Eric Swalwell, D-Calif., said the next Democratic presidential nominee must vow to demolish President Donald Trump's White House ballroom, proposing the pledge a litmus test for the party’s 2028 contenders.
"Don’t even think of seeking the Democratic nomination for president unless you pledge to take a wrecking ball to the Trump Ballroom on DAY ONE," Swalwell wrote on X on Saturday. Swalwell's office did not immediately respond to Fox News Digital for additional comment.
Wind Power: Not the Utopia We Were Sold On
23 replies
Wind power has been sold to us as an environmental utopia, with lower costs, but ends up being nothing of the sort in practice.
With the aid of government subsidies, we are putting up electric generating windmills all over the place. Such subsidies include the Production Tax Credit (PTC), which, according to the
Institute for Energy research (IRER), provides a per-kilowatt-hour tax credit for electricity generated by qualified wind projects; and the Investment Tax Credit (ITC), which provides a tax credit based on the investment made in renewable energy projects, including wind. According to IRER, trillions are being invested here. The United States, under the Biden-Harris climate bill,
The No Kings protests were a display of left-wing idiocy as participants dressed in costumes, chanted like ageing hippies at a Joan Baez concert, and held silly signs demanding that America have “no kings.”
It would appear that they achieved their goal, since we haven’t been ruled by a monarch in 249 years. Great job, guys.
As both our Nick Arama and Jennifer Oliver O’Connell noted in their coverage of the insanity, the crowds across the country seemed to look quite similar—they mostly seemed comprised of not-young white people. It turns out they were onto something, as American University researchers have discovered that one group in particular dominated the numbers
For all the unity that the Democratic Party projects, there’s actually a lot of drama behind the scenes, and it’s nice to see the details finally come out.
According to a new tell-all on last year’s campaign, Joe Biden spent the last weeks of his re-election meltdown dodging phone calls—not from reporters or donors, but from Barack Obama himself. For two full weeks before he finally bailed out last July, Biden reportedly refused to take his old boss’s calls. And get this: even after he quit, he gave Obama the cold shoulder for another month.
It’s a far cry from the friendly dynamic Democrats once sold to the public. Remember the memes,

Multiple suspects have been arrested in connection with the theft of crown jewels from the Louvre Museum in Paris last weekend, French officials said Sunday.
Paris prosecutor Laure Beccuau said that investigators made the arrests on Saturday evening, including one man who was taken into custody as he was about to leave the country from Charles de Gaulle airport.
Beccuau did not confirm the number of arrests, though French media BFM TV and Le Parisien newspaper earlier reported that two suspects had been arrested and taken into custody. She did not say whether the jewels had been recovered.
Thieves took less than eight minutes to steal jewels valued at 88 million euros
One person was killed and six others wounded when a mass shooting broke out during a homecoming event at Pennsylvania’s Lincoln University on Saturday night, creating a chaotic scene at one of the oldest HBCUs in the country.
Gunfire erupted at around 9:30 p.m. during a “tailgate celebration” near the football stadium at the historic Chester County campus, about 50 miles west of Philadelphia, according to officials.
“This is a devastating night in southern Chester County at Lincoln University,” District Attorney Christopher de Barrena-Sarobe told reporters Sunday morning. “It was a chaotic scene and people fled in every direction.”
The Trump administration took a shot at former Secretary of State Hillary Clinton, accusing her of stealing furniture from the White House, after she criticized President Trump's new Ballroom renovations. "Failed presidential candidate and former First Lady Crooked Hillary Clinton stole furniture from the White House on her way out until she was forced to return it," White House spokesman Davis Ingle told Fox News Digital. "Crooked Hillary is shameless and a total disgrace. Meanwhile, President Trump is restoring the White House to its proper glory for Americans to enjoy for generations to come — at no expense to the taxpayer — something we should all celebrate."
