Border Patrol agents are now apprehending between 5,000 and 8,000 migrants per day along the southwest border.
[Breitbart] Migrants Surge to Typically Quiet Texas Border Sector

Laredo Sector Border Patrol agents apprehended more than 2,900 migrants in a single week. The apprehensions appear to show the migrant surge spreading into the fourth-busiest of the five Texas-based Border Patrol sectors.

Laredo Sector Chief Patrol Agent Carl Landrum tweeted photos from the apprehension of more than 2,900 migrants during a single week. In addition, the agents stopped another 560 migrants from crossing the border illegally from Mexico.

During the month of February, the most recent statistics available from CBP, Laredo Sector agents apprehended 9,498 migrants. This was up nearly 12 percent from the year before.

The March Southwest Land Border Encounters report from CBP is expected to be out this week and, according to unofficial numbers obtained by Breitbart Texas, will reveal the apprehension of more than 200,000 migrants — a record for the Biden-era.

Border Patrol agents are now apprehending between 5,000 and 8,000 migrants per day along the southwest border. With the announcement of the end of the Title 42 coronavirus protection protocol in May, that number is expected to jump to as high as 18,000 migrants per day, according to a leaked document obtained and reviewed by Breitbart.

In response, Texas Governor Greg Abbott announced plans to beef up the state’s Operation Lone Star border security operation and bus released migrants to Washington, D.C.

“Texans have a backbone and the will to secure our border,” Gov. Abbott stated in an April 6 press conference. “Two things that Joe Biden does not have.”

#4  It can be assumed that at least twice that number are just getting though to overwhelmed or un-patrolled sections. In round number, that approximately 5.8 MILLION illegals a year, added to the 2-3 million already let in this past year, and it won't take long until 10+ percent of the population is here illegally. Now imagine the impact on every part of the social safety net, emergency care, law enforcement, crime, and the massive decline in our overall standard of living.

Now imagine how this is amplified as the growing food crisis impacts Mexico and Central America.

Build the Fence and put the Army on the Border, or kiss our country as we know it good-bye.

-Land of the Free
Texas Holds Up Truck Traffic to Change Mexico's Migration Politics
[Breitbart] Texas Governor Greg Abbott (R) is choking truck traffic across the U.S.-Mexico border to get Mexico’s government to help block the migrant flood invited by President Joe Biden’s border chief, says Todd Bensman, a Texas-based expert at the Center for Immigration Studies.

“If Texas wants to back those trucks up severely, they can do it as much as they want,” Bensman told Breitbart News.

The point is to get governors and mayors in northern Mexico where the maquiladoras [oursourced U .S outsourcing factories] are, to start complaining to [Mexican President Andrés Manuel López] Obrador, and Obrador is then going to complain to the American ambassador. Then it’s going to go to the State Department, and then Biden is going to have to do something.

Bensman posted a video of the resulting cross-border traffic jams on Friday afternoon:

Abbot signed the safety directive on April 6, telling the Texas Department of Public Safety:

As you have explained, the cartels that smuggle illicit contraband and people across our southern border do not care about the condition of the vehicles they send into Texas any more than they care who overdoses from the deadly fentanyl on board. In response to this threat, which is projected to grow in the coming months, I hereby direct the Department of Public Safety (DPS) to conduct enhanced safety inspections of vehicles as they cross international ports of entry into Texas. These inspections should begin immediately to help ensure that Texans are not endangered by unsafe vehicles and their unsafe drivers.

Cross-border traffic is falling fast. Frieghtwaves.com reported Friday:

At the Pharr-Reynosa International Bridge, 2,516 commercial trucks crossed on Thursday, a 35% decline compared to the same day last week before Abbott’s measures were announced, according to CBP data.

Commercial truck traffic at Laredo’s Colombia-Solidarity Bridge was 2,233 on Thursday, an 11% decline compared to last Thursday.

Texas’ decision to carefully check the cross-border trucks for drugs will quickly get the angry attention of powerful U.S. business groups, said Bensman. Those groups have outsourced their supply of critical food and manufacturing components to Mexican farms and factories, known as maquiladoras.

Trucks can bypass the traffic jams on the Texas border, but only by taking a 1,250-mile detour through Mexico to reach the entry at Nogales, Arizona.

At least 7 terrorists killed in Somalia as troops foil attack
[Garowe] Somali National Army (SNA) backed by the African Union

snuffies in a foiled attack on Monday in the southern part of the country.

The SNA commanders who led the operation told Radio Mogadishu that the gunnies had attempted to launch an attack on an army base in Dinsoor, a town in the southern region of Bay.

"Somali National Army and ATMIS forces in Dinsoor town of Bay region on Monday repulsed an attack on Army base by al-Shabaab and killed seven terrorists," the state-owned radio reported.

The gunnies often carry out attacks against government and AU bases in southern and central Somalia despite heavy security and army presence in those areas.

The latest onslaught against the terror group comes as government forces have intensified operations against al-Shabaab snuffies across the country during the electioneering period, but the gunnies are still hiding in the rural areas of those regions, conducting ambushes and planting land mines.

Nigerian Military Intercepts N60 Million Ransom Money To Free Kidnap Victims, Kills Terrorists
[TWITTER]

Troops of 271 Nigeria Air Force Detachment in Birnin Gwari, and troops of the Nigerian Army FOB in Gwaska, during a coordinated operation, have intercepted a ’huge’ amount of ransom meant to secure the freedom of some captives in the custody of bandidos in Kaduna State.

The couriers of the ransom payment, according to a report by PR Nigeria, were suspected to be security personnel.

Meanwhile,
...back at the dirigible, the gondola was dangling by a single thread of rope.

Jack! Cynthia cried. I just realized I'm afraid of heights! I don't even like high heels!...

about dozens of the kidnapped victims were rescued including some women and kiddies.

The operations, simultaneously undertaken by ground troops of the Nigerian Army, as well as special forces of the Nigerian Air Forces (NAF), resulted in the elimination of some bandit-terrorists.

An intelligence operative told the newspaper: "The sum of N60,000,000 in cash, petroleum products and sophisticated weapons, were recovered during the operations.

"Other items recovered by the troops from the suspects include vehicles, AK-47 rifles, magazines, various kinds of ammunition and mobile phones.

"Meanwhile,
...back at the dirigible, the gondola was dangling by a single thread of rope.

Jack! Cynthia cried. I just realized I'm afraid of heights! I don't even like high heels!...

we will refer the case of the arrested couriers who mostly have identifications with security agencies to the Department of State Service (DSS) and Defence Intelligence Agency (DIA) for further investigation."

Defend Yourselves, We’re Freeborn Nigerians, Not Fulani Slaves, Governor Ortom Charges
[PUBLISH.TWITTER]

Samuel Ortom, Benue State Governor has again lamented the gruesome murder of 23 persons in fresh attacks on two communities by the suspected Fulani
... a peculiarly brutal tribe of Moslem herdsmen infesting Mali, Niger, Nigeria, and probably other places that are light on law and order and heavy on tribal identity...
herdsmen on Monday night.

Subsequently, the governor directed his people to rise up to defend themselves forthwith, a statement by Nathaniel Ikyur, Chief Press Secretary to the governor on Tuesday, said.

No fewer than 8 persons were mowed down on Monday night by suspected Fulani herdsmen who invaded Mbadwem in the Guma local government area and 15 in Tiortyu in the Tarka local government area of the state.

Scores of others were maimed and are receiving treatment in an undisclosed hospital in the state.

Ortom, who was reportedly visibly angry, said, "It is becoming increasingly glaring every day that my people are now an endangered species and so we can no longer wait for help from anywhere.

"My people will have to rise up to the occasion to defend themselves and their heritage against the Fulani army of occupation."

"We are law-abiding citizens. We have cried for help against these invaders but nothing is forthcoming. We are left alone and it looks like it is a deliberate strategy. Now we have only one option; to defend ourselves or get extinct. This is a case for our survival.

"We have been accommodating of other people in our land but our hospitality is misconstrued as weakness. We are not a conquered people. We will never be. We are freeborn citizens of Nigeria," the governor added.

Repentant Bandit Attacks Former Colleagues, Rescues 38 Abducted Victims In Zamfara
[PUBLISH.TWITTER]

A repentant bandit popularly known as Smally in the Kaura Namoda Local Government Area of Zamfara State has led some courageous locals to the enclaves of bandidos where the criminals were engaged, leaving scores dead and freeing about 38 kidnapped victims.

According to DAILY POST, Smally who was not happy with the killings and kidnapping of innocent citizens in the state decided to lead the operation against his former colleagues in their hideouts.

Umaru Usman, a resident of the community said, "The repentant bandit first killed some of the bandidos and freed 16 kidnapped victims and took them to a nearby bush around Sakajiki village from where they were evacuated by security operatives.

"After some time, another 22 were also freed and brought out to the same spot and also evacuated by security operatives and moved to Gusau."

Umaru Usman explained that the operation which took place around Dajin Yamma forest in the Kaura Namoda Local Government Area brought jubilation among residents of the area.

On Monday, April 11, 2022, the state police commissioner, Ayuba Elkanan, in a press briefing in Gusau, said 39 kidnapped victims were rescued after a gun duel with bandidos.

But according to some residents of Kaura Namoda Local Government Area, the kidnapped victims were released by Smally and his group and not any security operative in the state, pointing out that the police are always looking for cheap publicity.

"The axis had been in total control of the recalcitrant bandidos before Smally and his group courageously confronted the deadly murderous Moslems in their enclaves and neutralised scores of them (bandidos) while others escaped with various degrees of injuries," one of the residents said.

Deadly attacks have raged across Zamfara state where bandidos have thrived.

Farming and herding communities in the state have long been terrorised by gangs who raid villages, steal cattle and kidnap residents for ransom.

Dozens of farmers have been killed as hundreds of hectares of farmland remain uncultivated.

Most of the slain victims were trapped on their farms and killed.

In 2019, the state government entered a peace agreement with the button men.

About 15 brand new Hilux vehicles and cash gifts were also given to leaders of different 'repentant' gangs of bandidos by the governor in 2020.

Governor Bello Matawalle also approved millions of naira to be given to the 'repentant' bandidos as compensation.

"Those bandidos have different groups, so if they say they repent, the governor will give them a Hilux vehicle; unfortunately they are now using the vehicles to carry out attacks," a military source had told SaharaReporters.

"It's so sad, he called it a peace and reconciliation programme, but all you need to be rich now in Zamfara is to take up arms against the people."

The bandit leaders who got the vehicles include Na Shama, Sani Shaidan, Mohammadu Bello Halilu and Bage Waye.

Other beneficiaries were identified as Kachalla, Ado, Busniya, Dunbulu and Gajere.

Gunmen Open Fire On Mosque In Taraba, Kill District Head
[PUBLISH.TWITTER]

Some button men believed to be bully boyz have attacked a mosque in Maisamari town in the Sardauna Local Government Area of Taraba State, killing a district head.

The victim has been identified as Alhaji Abdulkadir Maisamari. He has been buried in accordance with Islamic rites.

According to eyewitnesses, Maisamari was killed during Ishai prayers on Monday night. The button men reportedly opened fire on worshippers immediately after they stormed the mosque.

Residents were said to have confronted the button men and forced them to flee into a mountain close to the town.

A resident, Musa Sale, told Daily Trust that some courageous persons confronted the button men and forced them to flee.

He, however, said nobody was kidnapped during the attack.

The latest incident brings to three the mosques that have been attacked in the state in recent weeks.

The spokesperson for the state police command, DSP Usman Abdullahi, confirmed the incident but did not give details.

2 US men get 14, 16 years in 2017 Minnesota mosque bombing Minnesota
[AlAhram] Two Illinois men who helped bomb a Minnesota mosque in 2017 were sentenced Tuesday to about 16 years and roughly 14 years in prison, far below the 35-year mandatory minimum that each man faced, after victims and prosecutors asked for leniency because the men cooperated and testified against the criminal mastermind of the attack.

Michael McWhorter, 33, was sentenced to just under 16 years in prison and Joe Morris, 26, was sentenced to about 14 years in prison. Both testified in the 2020 trial against Emily Claire Hari,
...now 51 and “female”, at the time of the events in question went by his birth name of Michael Hari, and promised his henchmen the moon and stars to help him bomb that Somali mosque ...
the leader of a small Illinois militia group called the ``White Rabbits.''

Iraq
ISIS leader, suspects arrested across Iraq
[Rudaw] Iraqi forces on Monday arrested an Islamic State
...formerly ISIS or ISIL, depending on your preference. Before that they were al-Qaeda in Iraq, as shaped by Abu Musab Zarqawi. They're really very devout, committing every atrocity they can find in the Koran and inventing a few more. They fling Allah around with every other sentence, but to hear western pols talk they're not really Moslems....
(ISIS) leader along with several suspects in Iraq, a military official said as the terror group continues to pose a threat across the country.

Iraqi counter-terrorism services arrested three ISIS suspects in Anbar and caught two others in Kirkuk,
... a thick stew of Arabs, Turkmen, Kurds, and probably Antarcticans, all of them mutually hostile most of the time...
Iraq’s top military spokesperson Yehia Rasool said.

The forces also "brought in" two other suspects affiliated to the group with the assistance of the Kurdistan Region’s counter-terrorism directorate, Rasool added, without disclosing further details.

The counter-terror forces have also arrested a prominent ISIS leader, according to Rasool, saying the forces would share more information regarding the figure in the near future.

ISIS remnants are particularly active in parts of northern Iraq that are disputed by Erbil and Baghdad, including in the provinces of Kirkuk, Diyala, and Salahaddin.

The terror group grabbed credit for an attack on a village in southern Kirkuk, saying they have killed at least three civilians and injured four others.

Syria-Lebanon-Iran
Huge blast in Sidon town kills Amal member, injures at least 5
[An Nahar] An explosion destroyed a building in southern Leb
...an Iranian colony situated on the eastern Mediterranean, conveniently adjacent to Israel. Formerly inhabited by hardy Phoenecian traders, its official language is now Arabic, with the usual unpleasant side effects. The Leb civil war, between 1975 and 1990, lasted a little over 145 years and produced 120,000 fatalities. The average length of a ceasefire was measured in seconds. The Lebs maintain a precarious sectarian balance among Shiites, Sunnis, and about a dozeen flavors of Christians. It is the home of Hezbollah, which periodically starts a war with the Zionist Entity, gets Beirut pounded to rubble, and then declares victory and has a parade. The Lebs have the curious habit of periodically murdering their heads of state or prime ministers...
early on Tuesday, killing one person and wounding several others, a Lebanese security official said.

The blast in the town of Banaafoul, near the port city of Sidon, demolished the two-floor building that had served as the local municipality headquarters and a scout center for the Amal Movement headed by Parliament Speaker Nabih Knobby Berri
...Speaker of the Lebanese parliament, head of the Amal Shiite party aligned with Hezbollah, a not very subtle sock puppet of the Medes and Persians...
According to the security official, the dead person was the son of the town’s mayor, both of whom belong to Amal. Five people were maimed, the official said, revising his earlier figure of seven maimed.

Citing "preliminary information," the Amal Movement said in an official statement that an "electric short circuit" led to a fire that resulted in the earth-shattering kaboom of oxygen canisters that had been stored in the building during the Covid-19 crisis.

The blast also caused material damage to nearby buildings and cars.

The security official had said that the earth-shattering kaboom may have been caused by diesel fuel stored inside the building.

Other unconfirmed reports said the building contained a weapons cache. Army personnel sealed off the building as they searched through the rubble for clues and casualties. MTV meanwhile reported an altercation between army troops and Amal members in the wake of the blast.

Online videos showed a fire ripping through the building prior to the earth-shattering kaboom. Witnesses also confirmed that they saw flames and heard sounds resembling fireworks before the blast.

Samira Mustafa, whose nearby house received some damage, said she saw smoke and the sound of popping before the earth-shattering kaboom.

"I ran as stones fell on my head," she said as she sat with neighbors on Tuesday morning, discussing the incident.
