[FoxNews] 'You’re seeing an influx of migrants all over the country that, frankly, have people outraged,' Sharpton warned
MSNBC host Al Sharpton said that Americans "every day" are witnessing the "invasion" of migrants into America.
While bashing some Republicans for not getting on board with the Senate immigration bill unveiled over the weekend, MSNBC host Al Sharpton used the word "invasion" Monday to describe the border crisis, which some liberals found to be highly controversial.
President Biden and politicians from both the Democratic and Republican parties have touted the deal as a bipartisan compromise to secure the border. However, many Republicans argue that not only is this deal insufficient, but Biden already has the necessary ability to take action to secure the border. One of their main critiques is that it would include Title 42-type authority that would only be mandated if numbers at the southern border exceeded 5,000 migrant encounters a day. Democratic California Sen. Alex Padilla is so far the only Democratic senator to have publicly criticized the bill. He called the deal a "new version of a failed Trump-era immigration policy that will cause more chaos at the border, not less."
Sen. Chris Murphy, D-Conn., went on "Morning Joe" to tout the bill he helped negotiate and Sharpton asked him what could be done to get voters to pressure their senators to support the bill.
Sharpton expressed urgency and channeled people "outraged" across the country at the "influx of migrants," pointing the finger at senators who aren't on board as the ones "allowing this to continue."
"What is being done to get the public to really rise up in various states to say to their senators that they want to see the border issue resolved?" he asked. "I mean, you’re getting migrants beating up policemen in the streets of New York. You’re seeing an influx of migrants all over the country that, frankly, have people outraged. Couldn’t there be some kind of public pressure put in the next couple of days in some of these senators’ states saying, ‘Why are you allowing this to continue?’ Because at the end of the day, senators have to deal with their voters."
After mentioning funding to Israel and Gaza, Sharpton went back to the border, referring to the migrant crisis as an "invasion," a term that sparks outrage among immigration advocates and the left.
"But the border, I mean, we’re looking every day at the invasion of migrants, and they’re playing a time game with politics on this?" Sharpton asked. "Couldn’t the pressure be put to bear in their home states?"

All these decades that Sharpton's been race hustling, filling his own pockets, he was too busy to notice what's been happening. Maybe it's better late than never but maybe it's too late.

So, of course, he's looking for support for the "compromise" bill that allows the invasion to continue. It's the Republican's that are refusing to support it, naturally.
[SUDANTRIBUNE] Finance Minister Gibril Ibrahim, head of the Justice and Equality Movement (JEM), strongly criticized the Rapid Support Forces (RSF) and disclosed that his forces are preparing to wage war against them in al-Jazirah state.
Speaking at a rally in Port Sudan ...a Moslem country located in the Horn of Africa. It is noted for its affinity for rule by ex- or current generals, its holy men, and for the oppression of the native Afro population by its Arab conquerors. South Sudan, populated mostly by the natives, split off from Sudan proper, which left North and South Darfur to be oppressed by the guys with turbans... , Ibrahim condemned the RSF’s attacks and accused them of pursuing a destructive agenda that threatens the entire nation. He rejected their claims of supporting democracy, characterizing them as a force intent on harming the people.
By attacking the central Sudan state "The RSF’s actions expose their true intentions," Ibrahim declared. "Their project is not aligned with democracy or any other noble slogan."
The JEM leader’s statement comes amid general mobilization by the army to retake several states from the paramilitary forces. The army leaders said their campaign would start by al-Jazirah which the RSF seized in mid-December 2023.
Ibrahim, along with Minni Arko Minawi of the Sudan Liberation Movement, decided to abandon neutrality and join the army in this conflict.
He expressed his belief that the situation in Sudan is unique and has been influenced by international and regional actors. He further characterized the situation as incompatible with the nature of the Sudanese people.
"This situation is unprecedented, orchestrated by regional and global powers," he asserted. "It represents a perversion of the true character of the Sudanese people," he said referring to the war crimes and systematic looting practiced by the RSF elements.

[KavkazUzel] Volunteers of the Insan Foundation are distributing hot food and providing assistance in a refugee camp located in the south of the Gaza Strip, the foundation reported and reported on the closing of the next collection for the needs of Palestinians.
As the "Caucasian Knot" wrote, on February 1, the government of Dagestan reported that charitable foundations had collected 35 million rubles for monthly assistance to displaced people from Palestine, including 20 million rubles from the Insan Foundation and 15 million rubles from the Nadezhda Charitable Foundation. January 18 The government of Dagestan reported that it has allocated an additional 15 million rubles for accommodation and food for Palestinian refugees who are in a temporary accommodation center. The recreation center near Makhachkala is home to 157 people who arrived from the Gaza Strip, including 82 children.
On November 21, 2023, the Dagestan authorities announced that they were ready to accept up to 200 refugees from Palestine, and 8.2 million rubles had been allocated for their accommodation. More than 30 migrants are ready to work in Dagestan, mainly in the healthcare sector, the head of the Republic’s Ministry of Labor reported. 12 immigrants from Palestine asked to be enrolled in universities to receive free higher education in Dagestan.
The Insan Foundation announced today the distribution of humanitarian aid in a refugee camp in the south of the Gaza Strip. “150 Palestinians in a refugee camp in the south of Gaza received hot food. The distribution was carried out by Insana volunteer in Gaza Wesam Shaladan,” says a message on the foundation’s Telegram channel on February 4. In the video attached to the post, a man hands packages to people at a campground.
The fund also said that “the next collection for Palestinian residents is closed,” without specifying the amount of the collection. “Today we are selling the collected funds for the victims in the Gaza Strip,” the statement said.
[FoxNews] Congress should reject the Senate's border security bill and any other legislation that doesn't "cut off and eliminate all illegal entry into the United States," an Arizona border county official said.
"Do not vote yes on the bill," Yuma County Supervisor Jonathan Lines told Fox News. "Sit down with the Freedom Caucus, sit down with all interested parties and establish what needs to be done as a baseline, which is shutting the border down right now."
"There are thousands of people on their way," he added. "There is a pipeline to the United States. You see them in airports, you see them in police stations sleeping on the floor, you see cities that are unable to care for these people. They don't have the resources to do it and it's simply because these numbers continue to multiply on a daily basis."
A long-awaited bipartisan border security deal was revealed Sunday night, aimed at gaining control of an asylum system that has been overwhelmed by historic numbers of migrants flooding the border. It also would give the president and the Department of Homeland Security power to temporarily close the border when its overwhelmed and require a shutdown once a certain threshold is reached.
"Instead of setting a threshold, whatever it might be, I think we need to go back to getting control of the border first and foremost, before we can address any type of a number type system or identify how many people we will allow in," Lines told Fox News. "We've got around 8 to 10 million people that still need to be adjudicated, and I am seeing dates into the 2030s for people to go before a federal judge."
"So knowing that we have that type of backlog, why would we continue to allow people to come in unvetted and remain here waiting for adjudication?" he added.
Many House Republicans have voiced opposition to the $118 billion spending package in addition to Johnson, saying its measures aren't aggressive enough to curb illegal immigration. Some are critical of its attachment to Democrats’ supplemental aid proposal allocating $60 billion toward Ukraine, $14 billion to Israel and $10 billion in humanitarian assistance for civilians "caught in conflict zones."
While he thinks aiding U.S. allies should be a priority, Lines said the border issue should not be tied to issues involving foreign conflicts.
"We need to separate Ukraine from Israel from our U.S. border," he said. "We need to tackle those problems independently because they're so different. We can't just put riders into these bills that send out money by the millions and even billions to these different areas."
[GEO.TV] Chief of Army Staff (COAS) General Syed Asim Munir Monday reiterated that any aggression or violation of the territorial illusory sovereignty of Pakistain will be responded to with full national resolve and military might.
According to a statement issued by the Inter-Services Public Relations (ISPR), the army chief made the remarks while addressing the troops deployed on the front lines along the Line of Control (LoC) in the Sarian Sector on Monday.
The trip comes on February 5, the day when Pakistain marks Kashmir ...a disputed territory lying between India and Pakistain. After partition, the Paks grabbed half of it and call it Azad (Free) Kashmir. The remainder they refer to as "Indian Occupied Kashmir". They have fought four wars with India over it, the score currently 4-0 in New Delhi's favor. After 72 years of this nonsense, India cut the Gordian knot in 2019, removing the area's special status, breaking off Ladakh as a separate state, and allowing people from other areas to settle (or in the case of the Pandits, to resettle) there.... Solidarity Day, to express wholehearted support for the struggle of Kashmiri brothers and sisters in Indian Illegally Occupied Jammu and Kashmir (IIOJK).
"Pakistain Army is well versed with the full threat spectrum and is perpetually ready to respond effectively," the army chief said.
The COAS also mentioned the Indian state-sponsored terrorism in Pakistain which now extended to the heinous targeting of individual Pak citizens on our soil.
Such callous disregard for international law and norms of the international system was becoming a routine occurrence and India was now being called out openly by many countries in the world, exposing her sham credentials, Gen Munir added.
The COAS also appreciated the operational readiness, high morale, and effective response of the troops to Indian ceasefire violations.
"Pakistain would continue to expose all such attempts and ensure the security of its citizens," said ISPR.
Earlier today, caretaker Prime Minister Anwaar-ul-Haq Kakar, Azad Jammu and Kashmir Prime Minister Chaudhry Anwarul Haq, and the army chief visited Muzaffarabad.
Upon arrival at the Jammu and Kashmir Monument Muzaffarabad, the premiers and the army chief laid a floral wreath at the Martyrs' Monument and paid rich tribute to the supreme sacrifices of Shuhada, said ISPR.

[GEO.TV] The European Union ...the successor to the Holy Roman Empire, only without the Hapsburgs and the nifty uniforms and the dancing... 's top diplomat said on Sunday cutting funds to UNRWA would put hundreds of thousands of lives at risk, because of allegations on some of the UN Paleostinian refugee agency's staff for involvement in the October 7 Hamas ...a regional Iranian catspaw,... attacks on Israel. Maybe they could start with firing the guy at the top?
A string of countries, including the United States, Britannia and Italia, have paused funding to the aid agency, which has opened an investigation into several of its thousands of employees and severed ties with the people. Then they could shitcan the on-site administrators who looked the other way (or supported!) the organization taking sides?
UNRWA on Thursday said its entire operations in the Middle East, not only in Gazoo ...Hellhole adjunct to Israel and Egypt's Sinai Peninsula, inhabited by Gazooks. The place was acquired in the wake of the 1967 War and then presented to Paleostinian control in 2006 by Ariel Sharon, who had entered his dotage. It is currently ruled with an iron fist by Hamas with about the living conditions you'd expect. It periodically attacks the Hated Zionist Entity whenever Iran needs a ruckus created or the hard boyz get bored, getting thumped by the IDF in return. The ruling turbans then wave the bloody shirt and holler loudly about oppression and disproportionate response... , will likely be forced to shut down by the end of February if its funding remains suspended.
"Defunding UNRWA would be both disproportionate and dangerous," EU foreign policy chief Josep Borrell wrote in a blog post. Since nobody's been fired except (possibly some of) the guys who actually participated in the attack, I don't see it as disproportionate at all.
"The wrongdoing of individuals should never lead to the collective punishment of an entire population," he said.
Borrell said neither the European Commission, nor the EU's two biggest economies, Germany or La Belle France, had decided to end their contributions. Funds paused by other donors amount to more than $440 million, nearly half of the agency's expected income this year, he said.
In 2022, the EU was the third biggest donor to UNRWA, after the United States and Germany.
"The lives of hundreds of thousands of Paleostinians, not only in Gaza, are at stake," Borrell said.
UNRWA was established in 1949 following the war surrounding the founding of Israel, when 700,000 Paleostinians fled or were driven from their homes.
It employs 30,000 Paleostinians to serve the civic and humanitarian needs of 5.9 million descendants of those refugees — in the Gaza Strip, in the West Bank and in vast camps in neighbouring Arab countries.
"I am confident that the UN will take all the necessary measures following the Israeli allegations, and that UNRWA will continue to be a vital lifeline for millions of Paleostinian people," Borrell added.

"It will seriously harm our plans for Judenfrei world."?
[GEO.TV] The head of the main UN Paleostinian relief agency, UNRWA, is visiting three Gulf states this week to drum up support after donors suspended funding following Israeli allegations that some of the agency's staff were involved in the October 7 attack.
Some 15 of its most important donors, including the United States, have suspended funding after Israel alleged 12 of the agency's 13,000 staff were involved in Hamas ...the braying voice of Islamic Resistance®,... ' Oct. 7 attacks in southern Israel. 12 that they know of. The rest were involved actively or passively
UNRWA warned last week that it might be forced to shut down its operations by the end of February if funding does not resume.
UNRWA Commissioner-General Philippe Lazzarini said on X he met with the United Arab Emirates' (UAE) Foreign Minister Sheikh Abdullah bin Zayed Al Nahyan on Monday to discuss UNRWA's work in "preserving the stability in the region" and delivering aid to two million people in Gazoo ...Hellhole adjunct to Israel and Egypt's Sinai Peninsula, inhabited by Gazooks. The place was acquired in the wake of the 1967 War and then presented to Paleostinian control in 2006 by Ariel Sharon, who had entered his dotage. It is currently ruled with an iron fist by Hamas with about the living conditions you'd expect. It periodically attacks the Hated Zionist Entity whenever Iran needs a ruckus created or the hard boyz get bored, getting thumped by the IDF in return. The ruling turbans then wave the bloody shirt and holler loudly about oppression and disproportionate response... Spokesperson Juliette Touma told Rooters that Lazzarini would visit Qatar ...an emirate on the east coast of the Arabian Peninsula. It sits on some really productive gas and oil deposits, which produces the highest per capita income in the world. They piss it all away on religion, financing the Moslem Brotherhood and several al-Qaeda affiliates. Home of nutbag holy manYusuf al-Qaradawi... and Kuwait later this week.

Good luck having Arabs contribute to their Palestinian bruders.
[GEO.TV] United Nations ...where theory meets practice and practice loses... chief António Guterres ...Portuguese politician and diplomat, ninth Secretary-General of the United Nations. Previously, he was the UN High Commissioner for Refugees between 2005 and 2015. He was the Prime Minister of Portugal from 1995 to 2002 and was the Secretary-General of the Socialist Party from 1992 to 2002. He served as President of the Socialist International from 1999 to 2005. In both a 2012 and 2014 poll, the Portuguese public ranked him as the best Prime Minister of the previous 30 years... announced Monday the creation of an independent panel to assess UNRWA, its embattled agency tasked with helping Paleostinian refugees.
The new independent panel will be led by former French foreign minister Catherine Colonna, who will work with three European research organizations, the UN said in a statement.
The goal of the probe is to "assess whether the agency is doing everything within its power to ensure neutrality and to respond to allegations of serious breaches when they are made."
The panel is due to submit an interim report to Guterres, the UN secretary-general, in late March, and then a final one in late April, with, if necessary, recommendations for "improvement and strengthening" of the agency’s mechanisms.
Israeli Foreign Minister Israel Katz congratulated the UN for forming this panel.
"We will submit all evidence highlighting @UNRWA’s ties to terrorism and its harmful effects on regional stability," Katz wrote on X, formerly Twitter.
"It is imperative that this committee brings the truth to light," he added.
However, there is a theory which states that if ever anybody discovers exactly what the Universe is for and why it is here, it will instantly disappear and be replaced by something even more bizarre and inexplicable. There is another theory which states that this has already happened... this new panel is not charged with probing the specific allegations Israel has made against the UNRWA employees it says were involved in the Hamas ...not a terrorist organization, even though it kidnaps people, holds hostages, and tries to negotiate by executing them,... attack.
Rather, this is being done in an internal probe that the United Nations itself launched last month after the accusations were first made against them.
"We hope that donors have taken clear notice of the swift action taken by the secretary general... to address head on issues that may exist," UN front man Stephane Dujarric said.
The European groups helping in this independent assessment of UNRWA are the Raoul Wallenberg Institute in Sweden, the Chr. Michelsen Institute in Norway, and the Danish Institute for Human Rights.

[Regnum] Russia calls on the international community to condemn the attacks by the United States of America and its allies on targets in Syria and Iraq, said the Russian Permanent Representative to the United Nations Vasily Nebenzya.
“We call on the international community to unequivocally condemn the reckless actions of Washington and its allies in the Middle East, which violate the sovereignty of Iraq and the Syrian Arab Republic,” he said during a meeting of the UN Security Council on February 5.
The Russian diplomat emphasized that the actions of the United States and its allies in the Middle East create a direct threat to international security and undermine the world order based on international law and the central role of the UN.
As Regnum reported, on February 3, the first deputy permanent representative of Russia to the UN, Dmitry Polyansky, said that the urgent meeting of the UN Security Council requested by the Russian side in connection with the US strikes on Iraq and Syria will be held in New York on February 5 and will begin at 16:00 p.m. local time.
Let us recall that on the night of February 3, the United States of America attacked 85 targets of pro-Iranian groups in Iraq and Syria. The US Central Command (CENTCOM) noted that over 125 precision-guided munitions were used during the airstrikes. The attack was in response to an attack on a US base in Jordan that killed three US military personnel.
The official representative of the Russian Ministry of Foreign Affairs, Maria Zakharova, emphasized that the Russian side strongly condemns the attacks by the United States and allies on targets in Iraq and Syria. According to her, such attacks are aimed solely at further inciting conflict in the region.

They are condemning Joe’s symbolic waste of ordinance where he told everybody where and when he was going to hit. If anyone got hit in our attack, it was because they forgot to tell the night janitors or the Iranian proxies duct taped their least favorite brothers to chairs and left them.
