Could Democrats and the media tell us their plan to get rid of the10 million illegal immigrants President Biden let in? Because I'm getting the sense that they don't have one. (snip.) On CNN recently, Oklahoma City's Republican Mayor, David Holt, made the amazingly stupid point that, "we have enforced immigration law law in this country for over a century and ICE has existed for over two decades and we have never seen this type of chaos in the streets of our cities." I can only assume that Holt was snookered for the entirety of the Biden administration. Also since he was born.

In Minnesota Lied About Confrontation
That Led To Shooting 7 replies
Acting Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) Director Todd Lyons said Friday that officials are investigating whether two federal officers lied under oath about an incident in Minnesota that led to an illegal immigrant being shot in the leg. The shooting occurred last month in Minneapolis, when federal agents were allegedly ambushed by shovel-wielding suspects. The incident occurred during a targeted traffic stop of a Venezuelan immigrant. "Today, a joint review by ICE and the Department of Justice of video evidence has revealed that sworn testimony by two separate officers appears to have made untruthful statements," Lyons said
Internal communications from the Obama Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) show that staffers rushed to publish a landmark climate regulation at a plum time for political messaging and [were] imagining "green hugs" with green groups ahead of the announcement. The regulation, known as the Endangerment Finding, expanded the definition of harmful air pollutants to include greenhouse gases like carbon dioxide and therefore allows the EPA to regulate them under the Clean Air Act. The EPA proposed a rule to rescind it in July 2025 (snip), a decision critics have previously told the Daily Caller News Foundation would be a boon for key industries and consumer choice.

Is Maine the next Minnesota? Dr. Mehmet Oz, the administrator of the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid, openly asked that question in a video posted to on Friday (snip) [based on] compliance issues in MaineCare Section 28, i.e. rehabilitative and community support services for children with autism.

From ICE Custody 16 replies
A federal judge released four illegal immigrants who were convicted of murder and child sex crimes from the custody of U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement. U.S. District Judge John deGravelles for the Middle District of Louisiana, an Obama appointee, granted the defendants release from ICE custody, the Department of Homeland Security said Wednesday. "The ramifications will only be the continued rape, murder, assault, and robbery of more American victims," Assistant DHS Secretary Tricia McLaughlin said. "Releasing these monsters is inexcusably reckless[.]"
A U.S. Attorney who was appointed by federal judges in New York was quickly fired by the White House. On Wednesday, Donald T. Kinsella, 79, was appointed as U.S. Attorney or the Northern District of New York in a private ceremony, the New York Times reported. Then, Kinsella said, he received an email from a White House official hours later, telling him he was being removed from the post. Kinsella told The Times that he did not yet know whether the White House email carried the force of law (snip.) It is unclear whether there is any recourse for the Northern District judges.
In a blistering House Judiciary Committee oversight hearing on the Department of Justice on Wednesday, Rep. Ted Lieu launched a desperate attack on Attorney General Pam Bondi, accusing her of lying under oath about President Donald Trump's alleged ties to Jeffrey Epstein, only to be utterly dismantled when Bondi flipped the script, unleashing damning statistics on California's sanctuary-fueled crime wave. (snip) The state has released 4,561 criminal illegal aliens onto its streets (snip) [including] 234 sexual predator[s] (snip.)
On the night of Thursday, February 5, Trump's Truth Social account posted a video about election fraud that included a two-second splice featuring Barack and Michelle Obama, portrayed as apes in the style of The Lion King. The outrage machine swung into gear (snip.) But as the aching "anti-racism industry" locomotive groaned (snip) editors at The Guardian (snip) were weighing a story that would have staggering implications for President Trump (snip.) It was, in large part, an attempt to lay the foundations for a fresh impeachment of the 47th President of the United States.

The FBI has "substantiated" some major irregularities in how votes were counted in Georgia's largest urban area in the aftermath of the 2020 election and is probing whether those failures were intentional efforts to violate federal election law, according to a bombshell affidavit unsealed by a federal court on Tuesday. FBI Special Agent Hugh Raymond Evans first filed the affidavit last month to establish probable cause for a raid that seized about 700 boxes of Georgia 2020 elections ballots from a storage warehouse [snip.]

It happened again. Another Democratic politician posed for a photo while attempting to cook meat on a grill. This time it was Gov. Abigail Spanberger (D., Va.) who tried to look normal by grilling a substance some claim was intended to represent "beef." The governor posted a photo of herself on X along with the caption "Order up!" and a steak emoji. Many remarked upon the hideous appearance of the alleged meat, as well as the deranged grin on Spanberger's face—the manic visage of an overmedicated wine mom about to mow down a rival's goldendoodle with her luxury SUV. It was a disastrous grill-related performance from the Democrats, but

San Diego County health officials have issued a warning about “dark times” ahead as more measles cases are confirmed in Southern California.
While there has yet to be a case of measles in the county in 2026, neighboring LA and Orange County have confirmed cases and officials there are urging parents to vaccinate their children.
A child crying as they receive vaccinations, comforted by an adult. Measles, the world’s most contagious disease, was declared eradicated in America in 2000, but health officials say with vaccine hesitancy, it is slowly making a comeback, leaving children vulnerable.
Dr. Ahmad Bailony said he has seen a change in how parents feel about vaccinating their kids.
In a major development that could reshape the future of federal election law in the United States, Senator Susan Collins (R-ME) has officially announced her support for the SAVE Act.
With Vice President JD Vance prepared to break a tie if necessary, supporters of the legislation now say they have the numbers needed to pass the bill under a standing or “talking” filibuster scenario, marking a potential turning point in the GOP’s long-running effort to implement nationwide voter ID and proof-of-citizenship requirements for federal elections.
It can be recalled that Rep. Anna Paulina Luna revealed that Senate leadership is moving toward nuking the so-called “Zombie Filibuster” —

Trump Buries Obama’s Climate Policy

The U.S. government is dismantling the legal foundation of numerous climate protection measures from the era of President Barack Obama. The economy is being freed from the shackles of CO2 fixation. For European businesses, this will soon translate into noticeably higher competitive pressure.
February 12, 2026, marks the end of a political era in the United States. On Thursday, President Donald Trump, together with EPA administrator Lee Zeldin, repealed the so-called Endangerment Finding. This is one of the largest deregulation measures in recent U.S. history.
Legally, the move primarily deregulates the EPA framework. It is not an executive order or a law passed by Congress.
Some people have just unbelievable gall and a total lack of shame — former President Bill Clinton and California Gov. Gavin Newsom immediately come to mind — and Minnesota Gov. Tim Walz is proving that in spades. After his state refused to cooperate with federal authorities in their effort to clean up Joe Biden’s illegal immigration fiasco, and after endlessly demonizing agents who have tried to bring law and order to the Twin Cities of Minneapolis and St. Paul, and after apparently being completely blind to a massive Somali fraud operation that reportedly took in nine billion dollars in grift,
One of the most visible actions after the U.S. Senate failed to pass the House version of a bill to fund the Department of Homeland Security this week was Democrats swiftly hightailing it out of Washington, D.C., and heading to Europe for the 62nd Munich Security Conference. Senate Dems were not the only ones eagar to make an appearance at the yearly conference, though, and there's a simple reason for that. In its report, CNN describes the European gathering as a regular pit stop for "politicians to test the foreign policy waters and elevate their own profiles on the international stage ahead of White House runs."

The city of Chicago exists on another plane of the universe than the rest of us. It's a place where up is down, black is white, and the basic laws of physics are held in abeyance so that when adding one plus one, any number that's convenient (and politically viable) can be the answer.
In Chicago's budget, the "new physics" includes the caveat that nothing is real unless we (the aldermen and the city's hapless Mayor Brandon Johnson) say it is. And even then, nothing is permanent in this alternate plane of the universe. An equation that's "true" today may not be so "true" tomorrow.
Do you think I'm being facetious?
A Republican congressman vying for Donald Trump's endorsement has been caught inflating claims that his premature son spent 'months fighting for his life' in intensive care to explain the worst voting attendance record of any GOP member.
Texas representative Wesley Hunt missed 77 votes in 2025, nearly 10 times as many as his colleagues and more than any other Republican, GovTrack shows....Hunt cast a provisional ballot on November 4, 2016, but it was not counted because he was not registered to vote at the time.

The anniversary of Abraham Lincoln’s birthday was February 12. Since we now celebrate Presidents’ Day in memory of all our deceased presidents, Americans did not pause for a moment to remember Lincoln. This is very sad, given what Lincoln said that nullifies our contemporary outpouring of anti-White racism.
Going to… California?

In the wake of the Democrats’ successful flipping of a long-held GOP Texas state senate seat, one that President Trump won handily in 2024, many pundits expressed opinions about what happened and who was culpable (Republicans) or commendable (Democrats) for it.(snip) the pressing question remained: is this a palpable sign that the Democrats’ “Long Game” is beginning to turn red Texas purple? Some thought “yes.” Some thought “no.” I thought of California. California is America’s most populous state and arguably also the most Democrat. Along with New York, it is a cornerstone state of the modern Democrat Party. Texas is the second most populous state and arguably the most Republican.

All guidance forbidding troopers to cooperate with ICE is oral and deniable. The Minnesota State Patrol ostensibly operates under a statute authorizing cooperation with federal authorities which is cited when it suits the agency's purposes. However, one federal employee who was recently being stalked on a state highway by someone who mistakenly assumed they worked for ICE reportedly called 911 and was bluntly told the State Patrol would render no assistance because the agency "wants nothing to do with ICE."
