[Breitbart] President Joe Biden’s Department of Homeland Security (DHS) admitted that many of the lost tens of thousands of Unaccompanied Alien Children (UACs) released into the United States over the last two years are being labor trafficked.
During a Senate Judiciary Committee hearing this week, Sen. Marsha Blackburn (R-TN) noted that more than 85,000 UACs released into the U.S. interior from DHS custody have been lost in the system after being sent to live with sponsors and family members by the Department of Health and Human Services (HHS).
“We’ve got 85,000 Unaccompanied Alien Children … who have been released in the U.S. and HHS has lost track of these unaccompanied children,” Blackburn said. “… what you’re doing on the border is causing 85,000 children to be lost, can’t find them, and not knowing if they’re being trafficked, put in gangs, put in the sex trade.”
Blackburn asked DHS Secretary Alejandro Mayorkas how many are being trafficked and what the administration is doing to find these lost UACs. Mayorkas, though, replied by suggesting that DHS is focused on busting labor trafficking schemes because many of the UACs are ending up in brutal factory jobs.
“One of the reasons why we are devoting our worksite enforcement resources and energies on unscrupulous employers, is precisely the reason you’ve identified,” Mayorkas said. “We must hold accountable employers who engage in child labor.”
The admission is significant, as the Biden administration has sought to downplay the link between the nation’s UAC pipeline and labor trafficking.

What I don't know about RP will someday fill the Ru Paul Presidential Library, but I remember thinking, for a few minutes a decade or so ago, that he might not be so bad, since he'd defended Shirley Q. Liquor against the horde. Wrong again. Sigh.
[Epoch Times] A Senate Republican revealed during a March 28 budget hearing that an internal Department of Justice (DOJ) memo dissuaded U.S. Marshals from arresting protestors in violation of laws against picketing the homes of judges.
The materials (pdf) revealed during the hearing show that U.S. Marshals were explicitly directed to not arrest protestors at the homes of Supreme Court (SCOTUS) justices.
But Britt said the newly uncovered materials used to train Marshals to protect the homes of SCOTUS justices show that they were "actively discouraged" from making arrests on grounds of this statute.
"Those materials show that the Marshals likely didn’t make any arrests because they were actively discouraged from doing so," she said.
The training materials told the Marshals "to avoid, unless absolutely necessary, any criminal enforcement action involving the protestors."
Marshals were also told that "making arrests and initiating prosecutions is not the goal of the [Marshal Service] presence at SCOTUS residences."
"The ’not’ is actually italicized and underlined," Britt noted.

Marshalls Discouraged from Arresting SCOTUS Protestors

They were told to prioritize the safety of the judges and families, not enforcement of the law; possibly the right way to go, but does send the wrong message and sets a poor precedent.
[Epoch Times] More than a dozen Democrats joined Republicans in supporting the measure, part of a Republican-led pro-fossil-fuel legislative package H.R. 1, also referred to as the Lower Energy Costs Act,
...LECA, which doesn’t mean anything at all...
which the Biden administration has vowed to veto.
"Glad the House passed my amendment to H.R. 1 preventing @ENERGY from banning 50% of gas stoves on the market," Rep. Gary Palmer (R-Ala.), who proposed the amendment, wrote on Twitter late Wednesday. "This de facto gas stove ban was supported by 181 Democrats who are complicit in Biden's quest to control your kitchen appliances," added Palmer.
The vote on Palmer's amendment Wednesday was 251–181 in favor, with 29 Democrats joining Republicans in the GOP-controlled chamber in the vote.
The DOE has not been the only Biden administration entity that had been targeting gas stoves. In December 2022, Richard Trumka Jr., chief of the Consumer Product Safety Commission (CPSC), said the federal government should ban gas stoves due to health concerns.

Our broken border shatters Central American families and has empowered the cartels to create a Hell on Earth. On the other hand, labor costs are dropped hurting American families as well. So it’s not all bad.

[WASHINGTONPOST] A Manhattan grand jury has voted to indict former president Donald Trump ...dictatorial for repealing some (but not all) of the diktats of his predecessor, misogynistic because he likes pretty girls, homophobic because he doesn't think gender bending should be mandatory, truly a man for all seasons...... , making him the first person in U.S. history to serve as commander in chief and then be charged with a crime, and setting the stage for a 2024 presidential contest unlike any other.
The indictment was sealed, which means the specific charge or charges are not publicly known. But the grand jury had been hearing evidence about money paid to adult film actress Stormy Daniels during Trump’s 2016 presidential campaign, allegedly to keep her from saying she’d had a sexual encounter with Trump years earlier. Trump advisers were discussing a possible Tuesday surrender and court appearance, according to a person familiar with the discussions.
Trump, who is campaigning to return to the White House in 2024 and leading in most polls of Republican voters, is also the focus of criminal probes in Georgia and Washington, D.C., related to his efforts to overturn President Biden’s 2020 election victory and his handling of classified material at Mar-a-Lago, his Florida home and private club.
Those cases have raised serious questions about national security and the basic functions of democracy. The New York case, in contrast, stems from a hush-money scheme and Trump’s conduct before he became president. The charging decision comes after weeks of speculation about whether and when Manhattan District Attorney Alvin Bragg ...Soros-financed, -owned, and -operated woke Manhattan DA. A prosecutorial loose cannon who feels entitled to pick and choose which laws to enforce and can't be bothered to respond civilly to Congressional inquiries unless they're from Dems... might take such a momentous step toward a courthouse showdown with one of the most combative politicians in modern American history.
Being charged with — or found guilty of — a crime does not disqualify Trump from running for office. Still, the indictment suggests a remarkable possibility: a soon-to-be-77-year-old running for president while simultaneously seeking to beat a conviction. Trump has denied any wrongdoing and says he did not have an affair with Daniels. I genuinely fear for Trump's safety. These SOB's will stop at nothing.

Remember:
There are more politically steered legal issues, still out there to come.
It is looking more and more like the LSD's plan is to schedule indictments and court hearings one after the other, in order to tie Trump up in court and keep him off the campaign circuit as much as possible.
#8
There may be a relationship with the Trump indictment and Biden corruption hearings. At the very least the indictment is a distraction from JB corruption investigation and the war in Ukraine. Surely more shoes t drop.

A sealed indictment, how coy. Now for the next month the media is going to go wild. The left and Trump haters are going to revel in their victory. Then reality will set in. Honest Americans will see this for what it is. Another attack by the left elites, another of a long list of attacks, that will fail. 30 years ago this would destroy a president. The left learned when they impeached Nixon they could destroy. Times have changed. They impeached Trump twice an his base grew. Trump will win this in the end, another slander campaign will begin, and he will win it.
AMERICA needs to understand we have a ruling elite here in America. Its no different than Russia. If your not part of the party process, if you don't pay homage and kiss the elites ring, you can not be part of it.

Seven years of this nonsense, probe after probe, investigation after investigation, bogus charges, impeachment and still nothing sticks. By now it should be obvious to anyone who is paying attention that this is all the Democrats can do and they're working it for all it's worth. Problem is, it isn't worth anything at all.

Most of Trump’s real support is at the grass roots not among the GOP hierarchy. Although some would point out that we can pick another politician, we probably could up until this point. If we go that route now, we have let Bragg have input on our selection process. That said, I am not a proponent of protests Post-J6. I would rather see a boycott by Trump supporters from tourist travel to NYC and Washington until this is resolved. While most Trump supporters don’t have an NYC trip on their docket, probably 20% of the tourists going there are supporters of Trump. NYC is a violent dump currently and its finances are not great. A 20% drop in tourist revenue would be a significant form of accountability. Note - I don’t care much for the state governments boycotting each other in symbolic nonsense. The grassroots stuff is more real.

At this point they have accomplished their objective. Even if he is never convicted, or a conviction is reversed on appeal, he. is. never. going. to. be. president. again.
And the "nobody but Trump" crowd will do all the dems' oppo research and dirty tricks on the rest of the Pub field.

[NYPOST] Most Americans think Manhattan DA Alvin Bragg ...Soros-financed, -owned, and -operated woke Manhattan DA. A prosecutorial loose cannon who feels entitled to pick and choose which laws to enforce and can't be bothered to respond civilly to Congressional inquiries unless they're from Dems... ’s investigation of former President Donald Trump ...The tack in the backside of the Democratic Party... over "hush money" payments to porn star Stormy Daniels is a political attack, according to a new national poll.
The Quinnipiac University survey found that 62% said the grand jury inquiry has been "mainly motivated by politics," while just 32% said the probe was "mainly motivated by the law."
The poll also found that 93% of Republicans and 70% of independents believed Bragg’s probe was politically motivated, while only 29% of Democrats said the same.
Two-thirds of Democrats (66%) said they thought the liberal DA was motivated by the law, compared to just 26% of independents and 5% of Republicans.
Bragg’s office has paused the grand jury probe for at least another month, The Post reported Wednesday, after rumors that the 76-year-old Trump would soon be indicted swirled for much of the past two weeks.

“Florida will not assist in an extradition request given the questionable circumstances at issue with this Soros-backed Manhattan prosecutor and his political agenda,DeSantis said"RT news.
[DONSURBER.SUBSTACK] President Trump’s departure from the White House brought back the Dark Ages of the deep state’s ownership of the federal government. The new regime seeks to punish his supporters as well as destroy him.
The destruction of East Palestine, Ohio, epitomized the cruel nature of the vengeance of our government on those who dared want to make America great again. The village is poor and white (98%) and voted overwhelmingly for Trump. The EPA used a train wreck as an opportunity to inflict pain. The administration never acknowledged the heartbreak. Biden visited Ukraine, not Ohio.
The person who oversees trains for the federal government is the first openly gay mayor of a college town in the Midwest whose goals are to make paternity leave months long so he and his chubby hubby can bond with the children they adopted because we stupidly allow gay adoption.

At what point does a metaphor become a running joke?

Past as prologue, more aligned with the present than I would ever have imagined. The parallel to the Bragg created Rubicon is chilling. Trump as Caesar is a loose fit, but absent the 13th Legion, his enemy, the Cardboard Cutout facade of the Magic Kenyan as Pompey, seems ascendant. Sadly, this modern parallel has its Parthians as well, the CCP, and their influence on our governmental centers in Washington/Rome is deep indeed.
The path to a post-Caesarian Imperial Presidency with the Deep State as Praetorian Guard seems likely. The Patrician Class, the modern aristocratic, self-righteous woke, will never let the plebian tax-slaves actually have an honest vote again. The question percolating upwards, is if there is a Spartacus moment seen by the nightly goat-liver auguries of the Pontifex Maximus, Tucker Carlson?
Given the Alphabetians undoubtedly lurking, making them have to put this in context they never got at Quantico or Langley is amusing and instructive!

It sounds like she intends to implement the zoning override that pushes multi-storied tenements into expensive suburbs. Her support for that initiative indicates that she is breakdancing on strings controlled by the Reset Cabal. That policy is not popular among the plebeians that staff statewide campaigns. It would be interesting to see if Whitmer is trying to push that one as well.

[REDSTATE] Defense Secretary Lloyd Austin ...retired Army four-star general under the Biden administration, 28th United States Secretary of Defense. He is the first African American to serve in the position. As is usually the case with the first black anything appointed for his melanin content,he is a political general to the core. He was appointed as the first Black commander of CENTCOM by President Barack Obama where he went along to get along. He retired from the armed services in 2016 and joined the boards of Raytheon Technologies, Nucor, Tenet Healthcare, and Auburn University. On December 7, 2020, he was nominated for defense secretary by then-President-elect Joe Biden. He was confirmed by the United States Senate by a vote of 93–2 and has no regrets on the utterly botched withdrawal of U.S. forces from Afghanistan.... and Joint Chiefs of Staff Chairman Mark Milley testified before the House Armed Services Committee on Wednesday morning. The hearing was to address the Fiscal Year 2024 Defense Budget Request.
During the testimony, Austin was questioned by Rep. Jim Banks (R-IN) regarding the withdrawal of U.S. troops from Afghanistan in late August of 2021. When asked by Banks whether he had any regrets about the withdrawal, Austin gave a stunning response:
"I don’t have any regrets," said Austin. When further pressed as to accountability, Austin at first demurred then stated he was not aware of anyone being held to account regarding the withdrawal.
Banks: Secretary Austin, last week, General McKenzie repeated that he has many regrets about the botched, deadly, and embarrassing withdrawal from Afghanistan, and that he supports investigations into that withdrawal. A moment ago, you didn’t — you said you executed the President’s order, you didn’t tell us what you advised the President to do, but do you have regrets about the withdrawal from Afghanistan?
Austin: I support the President’s decision.
Banks: Do you have regrets about the withdrawal, or how the withdrawal occurred from Afghanistan that cost the lives of 13 of our servicemembers?
Austin: I don’t have any regrets —
Banks: You don’t have any regrets. Secretary Austin — that’s very telling — Secretary Austin, has there ever been any accountability for anyone within the Department of Defense for the deadly, botched, and embarrassing withdrawal from Afghanistan? Any accountability?
Austin: Hey, listen, our troops evacuated 124,000 people off that airfield, and —
Banks: Has anyone been held accountable? If a Navy captain grounded a ship, what happens immediately?
Austin: Typically, that captain is removed.
Banks: That captain is removed. Has anyone been held accountable for what happened in Afghanistan?
Austin: To my knowledge, no.
Banks: You don’t regret it, no one’s ever been held accountable. Mr. Chairman, this is why this Republican majority must provide the accountability that this administration wants to sweep under the rug with what happened in Afghanistan.

Historically, there are often political inquires against generals after American battles. There was a Congressional inquiry after Antietam in which McClellan famously threw Burnside under the bus. All of Hooker’s buddies testified against Meade in an inquiry after Gettysburg. Those were nominal and strategic wins. Politics are politics. The Great Kabul Bugout was not a win. There ought to be accountability. Austin and Miley ought to be gone. Austin’s statements are akin to Tex Cobb calling his bout with Larry Holmes a victory. It’s delusional or dishonest.

@#2. Biden’s and Austin’s responses can be reconciled if you realize that they view patriotic Americans as the enemy; not the Taliban.
[THEGATEWAYPUNDIT] Disgraced Defense Secretary Lloyd Austin testified before the House Armed Services Committee on Wednesday in support of Joe The Big Guy Biden ...46th president of the U.S. SOld, boring, a plagiarist, fond of hair sniffing and grabbing the protruding parts of women, and not whatcha call brilliant... or is that an act?... ’s defense budget request.
Rep. Cory Mills (R-FL) had a more pressing issue on his mind, however. He was seeking to hold the Biden regime accountable for the botched withdrawal in Afghanistan.
Afghanistan is perhaps the most sordid part of Biden’s destructive legacy. As the Gateway Pundit’s Jim Hoft reported, a US Marine sniper was denied permission to shoot and kill the Kabul airport jacket wallah Who killed the 13 America service members during the botched withdrawal.
Not only does the Biden regime have the blood of these soldiers on their hands, but thousands of interpreters, their families, and the families of US soldiers as well are dead as well because the Regime’s choices during the withdrawal.
One example was reported The Gateway Pundit in August. The brother of a US Marine killed in the Kabul bombing due to Joe Biden’s botched withdrawal did away with himself at the memorial for the fallen soldier.
Mills completely destroyed Lloyd Austin. He told the defense secretary that he viewed his conduct during the failed Afghanistan operation as dereliction of duty and that Austin lacked the honor to resign.
He next called out Austin for leaving Americans and their Afghan friends to die. Mills also revealed the massive increase in suicide rates of American soldiers as a result of the botched withdrawal.
Mills then showed Austin that he had drafted the articles of impeachment against him.

When Buttigieg thinks he is doing a good job, his delusional statements are understandable because he has no background or capability to complete his assignment. I am a grad of a service academy. I would shut all of them down based on having a West Point grad so betray Duty Honor Country with this dissembling mess of a testimony. When a product is this bad, you need to close the factory.
