ICE arrests 86 in North Texas and Oklahoma areas during 3-day operation targeting criminal aliens and immigration fugitives
I.C.E. is definitely on the job...
On their website, the Immigration and Enforcement share tis recent effort:
"Aliens arrested during this operation are from the following countries: Mexico (55), Guatemala (10), El Salvador (6), Honduras (4) Bangladesh (3), Cameroon (1) Jordan (1), Laos (1), Liberia (1), Nigeria (1), Panama (1), Philippines (1) and Zimbabwe (1).
Most of the aliens targeted by ERO deportation officers during this operation had prior criminal histories that included convictions for the following crimes: sexually exploiting a minor, assault, aggravated assault with a deadly weapon, drug possession, burglary, obstructing police, larceny, manufacturing methamphetamine, firearms offense, smuggling, receiving stolen property, illegally entering the U.S., and driving under the influence (DUI)."
Report: Washington State Issues Emergency Driver License Rule To "Foil" ICE
The West Coast states are really out of control...
This was reported by "Fuzzy Slippers" on the LegalInssurrection website:
"QAs the open-borders agenda of the left finally sees the light of day, it’s not surprising to learn that blue cities and states are no longer solely committed to refusing to work with ICE. They are now actively working against federal immigration law and policy, even going so far as to issue emergency rules intended to protect illegal aliens from deportation.
In Washington state, one such “'emergency rule' was approved Friday. The rule says that the country of birth is no longer required on applications for Washington driver licenses. Washington state officials say that asking for the place of one’s birth on an application for a driver license can lead to targeting by ICE. They are having none of that."

Illegals in California with Driver's Licenses Eligible to Vote After April 1
Peter Barry Chowka reports on this at AmericanThinker.com:
"Starting on April 1, 2018, illegal aliens in California who have recently obtained state driver's licenses legally, or obtained them previously by lying about their immigration status, will automatically be registered to vote. Since January 2015, according to the California DMV, A.B. 60, a law passed by the California Assembly, 'allows illegal immigrants to the United States to apply for a California driver's license with the CA Department of Motor Vehicles (DMV)' [emphasis original]. As of December 2016, more than 800,000 California driver's licenses were issued to illegal aliens under the A.B. 60 law. Additional thousands of illegals may have been granted licenses prior to 2015 because they lied on their driver's license application forms and claimed they were in the country legally. (No proof of legal residence has been required by the California DMV in recent years.)"
Paris Flooding, Again | Watts Up With That?
In my opinion, most are "boy that cried wolf" stories that weaken every one of those arguments...
In this article about Paris flooding, Kip Hansen's guest post in the Watts Up With That website tells us what is really going on:
"We see once more that the efforts to control great rivers and put them solely to our own purposes leads to unforeseen, or at least, unacknowledged, problems.
The upriver dams, used to store water against the dryer summers, to maintain river levels appropriate for shipping, are allowed to fill in the Spring, find themselves nearly full — and if late summer rains come, there is nowhere to store the resultant excessive river flow — floods start upstream and spread down the river to Paris.
We see this same pattern with the great rivers of the American Midwest — the Mississippi and the Missouri."

Is The NSA Spying On Your Text Messages?
I found this in a post by Lyn Hastings on theSafeguarde.com website:
"'Today, the NSA has an enormous facility in Utah that saves the copies of every email, every text message, and meta data from every phone call made by every American and they have enough memory to keep it for the next 500 years,' Kiriakou said.
Think the National Security Agency has limited power? Think again. Take an average American with a smart phone, and think about how many times that person looks at their phone, sends a text message, posts a picture, makes a phone call, watches a video, and more. Think about every move you make within a day. Then imagine that your entire online life is being recorded, watched, surveilled and tracked.
There’s a very good chance that it’s happening."
Police Data: UK Violent Crime Wave Grows Even Faster, London Knife Attacks up 40 Per Cent
And, of course, there are politics, so not everyone agrees...
At Breitbart.com, Liam Deacon provides some statistics:
"In England and Wales, around 5.3 million violent crimes were recorded in the 12 months to September 2017, up 14 per cent on the year before, the Office for National Statistics (ONS) said.
The latest police figures from 44 forces around the country reveal that robbery was up by 29 per cent, sex offences up 23 per cent, knife crime up 21 per cent, and violent crime overall surged by 20 per cent. There were a massive 37,443 knife crimes and 6,694 gun crime offences recorded in the 12 months to September.
Since 2011, the number of offences involving a knife or a sharp instrument had been falling, but began rising in the past three years, the ONS explained.
Vehicle-related theft offences also saw a rise, up 18 per cent, and burglary rose by 8 per cent compared to the previous 12 months."

Paul Krugman’s poor prediction. | Lapham’s Quarterly
Some things are just too amusing to pass by.
This Nobel Prize winner predicted utter collapse of the economy if Trump would be elected.
I might add that Barack Obama and Al Gore are also Nobel Prize winners...
This Nobel Prize winner predicted utter collapse of the economy if Trump would be elected.
I might add that Barack Obama and Al Gore are also Nobel Prize winners...
One of his previous predictions is noted on the Lapham's Quarterlywebsite:
"By 2005 or so, it will become clear that the Internet’s impact on the economy has been no greater than the fax machine’s."
Fifty Years on from Paul Ehrlich's The Population Bomb: So How Come We're Not All Dead, Yet?
We might want to remember that when we are presented with the next one...
At Breitbart.com, James Delingpole recently reminded us of this one:
"Well if Ehrlich is not embarrassed, he should be. His book sold over three million copies – presumably making him a very decent amount of money. It turned him into an academic rock star, helped win him numerous prizes (often with large sums of money attached) and may well have been responsible for winning him the post he still occupies aged 85 as Bing Professor of Population Studies at Stanford University…
…And all for writing a book which is essentially junk. Not just junk but dangerous junk. It’s bad enough that it got its predictions – about a disastrous population collapse due to resource depletion – wrong. But far worse was the damage it did to public and political consciousness, doing much to generate the environmental hysteria we see gripping the world today.
In fact, The Population Bomb did the one thing which science books aren’t supposed to do: it actually made the people who read it more stupid."

Report: Over 300 Labor Union Offices Have Embezzled Money Across The Country - Matt Vespa
We see it with civic association, volunteer fire companies, church treasurers, little leagues, etc.
The temptation of easy money is very powerful...
This article, is by Townhall.com's Matt Vespa. He begins:
"Well, this is not necessarily a shocker, but labor unions across the country, in cities and small towns, have become engulfed in embezzling scandals. Yes, it’s a 'water is wet' story, but millions have been siphoned away from due-paying members, even in times of economic hardship. The Detroit Free Press obtained documents from the Department of Labor that in the past two years, over 300 labor union chapters have detected fraud. Two cases with the United Auto Workers Union in Michigan and New Jersey had embezzling episodes that soared over $1 million. The Free Press added that at times, some people who have been tasked with looking after the books were simply not qualified for the job, some cases they were headed up by people who couldn’t balance their own checkbook. That factor, plus the notion that many people in unions and nonprofits feel underpaid and overworked increase the temptation for corruption; they have access to the cash."
Why California is the 'poverty capital of the America'
Almost everyone is capable of doing something useful. I see no harm asking for that in return for taxpayer funded generosity...
At AmericanThinker.com, Rick Moran included this in his post on that subject:
"According to the Census Bureau, one out of five California residents are poor. This despite the state's per capita GDP rising twice as fast in the last 5 years as the national average. From 1992 to 2015, state and local governments spent nearly $1 trillion to help the poor. The state, with 12% of the American population, is home today to about one in three of the nation’s welfare recipients.
Jackson then reaches the not so astonishing conclusion: 'The generous spending, then, has not only failed to decrease poverty; it actually seems to have made it worse.'"

Paris Metro Drivers Refuse to Stop at Certain Stations Citing Passenger Safety
I must have missed the immigrant loving U.S. media's reporting on this...
However, Breitbart reporter, Chris Tomlinson DID report on it:
"Drivers on the Paris metro are refusing to stop at certain stations due to the high level of crime and drug use claiming that the areas may not be safe for their passengers.
Drivers working for the Régie Autonome des Transports Parisiens (RATP), Paris’s publicly-owned transport company, say that several stations to the north of Paris have become rife with drug use and criminality and present a danger to passengers, French broadcaster BFMTV reports.
According to the RATP union UNSA, there are drug addicts and dealers seen daily on lines 4 and 12 at stations like Marcadet Poissonnier and Porte de la Chapelle with the later station also being a well-known place for migrants to camp out."
FEDS: Surge In DACA Recipients Losing Protections For Crimes, Thousands Convicted Or Charged
So, it's all about future votes...
Ryan Saavedra reported on this on the DailyWire website:
"The director of policy studies at the Center for Immigration Studies, Jessica Vaughn, said that the numbers show the nightmare that the DACA program has been for the U.S. 'It confirms that the DACA screening process was woefully inadequate. The eligibility bar was set very low, explicitly allowing people with multiple misdemeanor and certain felony convictions to be approved. Only a handful of the applicants were ever interviewed, and only rarely was the information on the application ever verified,' Vaughn said. A leaked memo from former Hillary Clinton official Jennifer Palmieri shows that the Democrats are primarily concerned about protecting DACA recipients because it is a "critical component of the Democratic Party’s future electoral success.""

California Democrats Want Businesses To Give Half Their Federal Tax-Cut Savings To State
The National Economics Editorial website recently offered their opinion:
"Despite what Hollywood celebrities and Democrat bigwigs claim, California’s in bad economic shape. Not only does California have the highest poverty rate in America—over 1 in 5 Californians live below the poverty line—but it’s home to nearly one quarter of America’s homeless people.
There are so many poor people in California that it’s income inequality ratio is now larger than Mexico’s. How could so much poverty exist in a place with nearly unlimited natural wealth, and a rich cultural and business inheritance? California is the home of Hollywood, Apple, and Google after all."
Illegal Alien Uber Driver Charged with Four Rapes in Sanctuary State of California

The total of ten criminal charges include forcible rape, first degree burglary (he is accused of robbing his victims), and rape of an intoxicated victim. Alarcon-Nunez was already deported once, from New Mexico back in 2005."

"U.S. Secretary of Education Betsy DeVos gave a far-ranging speech today in Washington at an American Enterprise Institute conference, 'Bush-Obama School Reform: Lessons Learned.'
She announced the death of Common Core, at least in her federal agency.
DeVos also decried the federal government’s initiatives to improve education. 'We saw two presidents from different political parties and philosophies take two different approaches. Federally mandated assessments. Federal money. Federal standards. All originated in Washington, and none solved the problem. Too many of America’s students are still unprepared,' she said.
And she touched on a favorite topic, school choice."

BBC - We will lie and falsify history to destroy white Britain
On the British National Party website, Henry Watts shares their agenda:
"A senior screenwriter for the BBC has gone on record admitting that the corporation is actively working to engineer the population replacement of Britain and dispossess indigenous Brits of their homeland.
Earlier this month, lead screenwriter of the BBC’s Dr Who series announced that it was the corporation’s duty to phase white people from its screening.
The BBC has long been recognized as having been hijacked by Social Justice Warriors (SJWs) pushing their racist, social engineering ‘progressive liberal’ agenda, but it’s seldom that such a high profile figure has been so brazen in spelling it out."

Trump dumps $13 billion Obama-backed NY-NJ rail tunnel plan
On the LegalInsurrection website, Leslie Eastman posted this:
"The expressly stated reason given by Trump administration officials is that they view this project as local in nature.
…[I]n a letter Friday, the Trump administration notified New York and New Jersey that the Obama-era deal was now “non-existent” because the states recently requested that their portions be covered by loans from the federal government — meaning Washington would supply all of the initial funding for what the Trump White House is calling 'a local project.'
'Your letter also references a non-existent ’50/50′ agreement between USDOT, New York, and New Jersey. There is no such agreement,” wrote K. Jane Williams, deputy administrator of the Federal Transit Administration. 'We consider it unhelpful to reference a non-existent ‘agreement’ rather than directly address the responsibility for funding a local project where nine out of 10 passengers are local transit riders.'"

Kris Kobach: No, We Don’t Have to Do a DACA or DREAM Amnesty
At Breitbart.com, Kris W. Kobach writes about D.A.C.A. This is part of what he wrote:
"Granting an amnesty to the DACA aliens would be a profoundly bad policy that would hurt American workers and American taxpayers. They are not kids; they are mostly young adults in their 20s and 30s. Their average age is 24. And they are competing for jobs against young Americans in the same age group. Despite the growing economy, young American adults are struggling in the workforce, with an unemployment rate of nine percent. And young Americans without a college degree (66 percent of them) are suffering an underemployment rate (unemployed or seeking full time work) that stands at a whopping 34 percent. Why in the world would we want to give legal status to nearly a million illegal aliens so they can compete against our own citizens in the same age group?
Granting an amnesty would also be very costly to American taxpayers. It’s estimated that the net cost of the DREAM Act amnesty for the larger group of 3.25 million aliens would be $26 billion, even after taking into account any taxes that the aliens would pay. That’s explained, in part, by the fact that about 20 percent would go on food stamps after the amnesty made them eligible for it."
Trump Still Standing Despite Media Onslaught - Jeff Crouere

In 2017, the stock market soared, consumer confidence rose to a 17-year high, and housing starts increased 3.3% in November, reaching a 10-year record. Most importantly, there has been strong job growth. Unemployment decreased to 4.1% while unemployment for Hispanic Americans is at an all-time low and for African Americans; it reached a 17-year low."

"Soon we 'celebrate' the 12th anniversary of former Vice President Al Gore’s movie 'An Inconvenient Truth' revealing the “grave” threat of global warming. On January 26, 2006 the Washington Post stated Al 'believes humanity may have only 10 years left to save the planet from turning into a total frying pan.' My Tennessee neighbor won an Oscar and Nobel Prize for sounding the alarm in book and film as a Climate Control Caped Crusader.
Al crisscrossed countries waving his arms, passionately declaring, 'We can’t wait… We have a planetary emergency… the future of human civilization is at stake! … Global warming is the greatest challenge we’ve ever faced!' This is no exaggeration."

And the process is continuing day by day and minute by minute. History has stopped. Nothing exists except an endless present in which the Party is always right.' "

New England's Absurd Energy Policies Exposed by Bomb Cyclone
At NewsMax.com, Tom Borelli tells us about New England's results:
"Left-wing politicians concerned about global warming and an aggressive EPA regulatory agenda combined to reduce use of coal in New England from almost 20 percent in 2000 to about 2 percent in 2016. Natural gas is now the primary source of power, providing about 50 percent of electricity, up from about 15 percent in 2000. Burning natural gas emits about half the carbon dioxide emitted by coal.
The dependence on natural gas is a problem in New England because radical environmental activists are blocking construction of new natural gas pipelines needed to keep up with the increase in demand. Predictably, the law of supply and demand kicked in, resulting in an explosion of natural gas prices with plummeting temperatures.
During the first round of severe winter weather at the end of December, the surge in demand made New England 'the world’s priciest' natural gas market, where the energy commodity jumped threefold on the spot market."

Now every time I think of Denver I will see visions of poop and other body fluids on the sidewalk. People are required to dispose of dog poop and Denver is letting humans defecate any where they please. What’s disturbing as well is that they also decriminalized camping out on private land. So now you can go out to get your morning paper, but it’s not there, because the person camping on your front lawn is reading it while defecating on the sidewalk in front of your house.

Russia’s state-funded TASS news agency reported that the gamer, who could not see what he was doing in the real world because he was wearing virtual reality goggles, fell while playing with the new technology in his Mosow home."

Renters Win in Tax Law; Dems Lie About It
At Townhall.com, Betsy McCaughey reports some things the media has "missed", including this:
"Millions of New Yorkers and Californians reap the benefits, because these states have among the lowest rates of homeownership in the nation, and renting is common. So ignore the hyperventilating from Democratic politicians that tax reform is a gift to the rich. New York Senator Chuck Schumer condemns the new tax law as 'a gut shot to the middle class' while 'rewarding the wealthiest among us.' Just the opposite is true. Tax reform benefits renters living in urban areas -- a key Democratic constituency."
The German Navy Decided To Return Their Bloated New Frigate To The Ship Store This Christmas
At theDrive.com, Tyler Rogoway reported this:
"Just weeks ago we told the story of Germany's puzzling Baden-Wurttemberg class Type 125 (F125) frigate program. Not only did we discuss the ship's odd mission and design features, but we also highlighted some of the troubling post-delivery issues with the lead ship in the class. These problems include a persistent list to starboard and the fact that the ship is dramatically overweight, which would limit its performance, increase its cost of operation, and most importantly, negatively impact the Deutsche Marine's ability to add future upgrades to the somewhat sparsely outfitted vessel."

The Media - the Washington Post
Medical Journal Perpetrates the Noble Lie that American Air Quality Kills
It keeps getting more and more difficult to know who to believe.
If possible, I guess we should begin with believing nothing, use our brainpower, and always consider the source (and their possible agenda)...
At AmericanThinker.com, John Dale Dunn and Steve Milloy recently wrote their opinion about this occurrence:
"The iconic academic journal of American medicine, the New England Journal of Medicine (NEJM), published since 1812, has committed itself to a Noble Lie, that ambient (natural) air quality in America kills hundreds of thousands annually. "
US aerial attacks are crushing terror, say Afghan lawmakers | Arab News
At ArabNews.com, Syed Salahuddin tells what's really happening:
"The US revision of Afghan war strategy has essentially unveiled a new weapon – increased aerial attacks to crush militants’ might on the ground. And contrary to its popular critics, including former President Hamid Karzai, a large number of Afghan lawmakers have acknowledged a notable reduction in terror attacks since August, when President Donald Trump gave the go-ahead for increased aerial strikes in Afghanistan."

WSJ Columnist On GOP Tax Bill: The Democrats And The Media Are Eating So Much Crow Right Now
At Townhall.com, Matt Vespa has reached this conclusion:
"So, while the Left whines, Americans are getting relief. The economic growth this quarter is at solid four percent. Consumer confidence is at a 17-year high. Unemployment is at a near two-decade low. Every indicator also shows that the biggest bonus this country received this year was Hillary Clinton not being elected president. Bravo to Trump and the Republicans, this is a grade-A legislative achievement. For Democrats, let’s see how they defend their abject abandonment of the people they say they’re champions of on a daily basis."
How Trump Dominated Mueller and Tricked Democrats
It is all about military strategy and tactics.
It is likely President Trump has read it...
At AmericanThinker.com, Daniel Ashman writes that President Trump knows exactly what he is doing:
"Simple explanations are always best.
It must be admitted: the idea that Trump is pulling a sophisticated and long-term caper can be hard to believe. However, there is no other explanation that is simpler and makes sense. Thus, we must accept the simplest explanation consistent with facts, which, in this case, is not all that simple.
Trump will probably never bother to explain this (though a tell-all autobiography would be the best book ever). Bottom line, it's impossible to know for sure what is going on in the murky swamp waters, but it appears that Trump is well in control of the situation."
