[Federalist] Touted as an overdue (if duplicative) law that no one could disagree with, the Emmett Till Antilynching Act signed by President Biden last week includes a subtle provision that could boost the Biden administration’s war on wrongthink.
The bill sailed through the U.S. Senate and the House with ease. The tactful naming made the bill radioactive to oppose, which is why 422 congressmen voted in favor while only three opposed.
Rep. Thomas Massie, one of the three who voted against the bill, expressed a handful of concerns, including that there are a limited number of constitutionally specified federal crimes, that lynching is already criminalized, and that "Adding enhanced penalties for ’hate’ [on top of existing criminal punishments] tends to endanger other liberties such as freedom of speech."

Young Emmett was dancin' with devils
That day at the store, on two levels:
A lyin' white whore
As he ducked out the door...
And his poor father's murderous revels.

Kamala is in the thick of it, all smiles and chummy with Baraq, while Joe is on the outside looking forlorn and wondering why nobody pays attention to him. Poor Joe!

OK, wait. I'm sorry if that line about Kamala and Baraq getting chummy gets misinterpreted. No, no. Don't even go there.

^#4 Biden can't run again, but he could be President again - for instance, Harris resigns, Zero appointed to replace, then Biden resigns, and Zero would finish his term. The same operation can be repeated indefinitely but Zero can not actually run and be elected.

Actually, these weapons programs are much longer scheduled than Joe's single 4 year term. LRSO will be built. The LRAS is already pre-deployment. The next gen naval launched cruise missile is part of the same family.

Remember the Iron Law of Budgeting* at the Five-sided 'Puzzle Palace' ? How much of this is necessity and how much of this is giving the US Navy a bigger slice of the budget pie?
(*The Army, Navy and Air Force each get a third of the gross budget...)

Except that they can and they are right now. I predict if the GOP takes the house and senate, Bidet will just veto any attempts to change the status quo, and they won't have the necessary margins to override.

And he's an MD, LSU 1983. Somewhat RINO-ish too, at least by Louisiana standards.
[Breitbart] The Department of Homeland Security is disseminating a mass migration plan devoid of removal mechanisms to replace the soon-to-end CDC Title 42 emergency order. The plan predicts that DHS traditional processing capabilities will be overwhelmed and require an increase in the use of “broadscale release mechanisms.”
The plan, reviewed by Breitbart Texas, acknowledges the end of Title 42 will likely result in a surge in illegal migration along the southwest border. The increase is already manifesting itself as apprehensions rise. In March, Border Patrol agents apprehended more than 200,000 migrants.
The draft plan, recently circulated to senior DHS staff, is dated February 17, 2022. A source within the agency, not authorized to speak to the media, says the plan offers no concrete options other than to exhaust more resources to absorb what will likely be a historic wave of migrants at the southern border.

As I have said before: Leftists believe history is a ratchet, it can only move one way, towards their Glorious Future™. They are so sure of this they make the destruction of history a foundational pillar of their ideology (that's sarcasm there).
History is a pendulum or wheel. I just feel bad I will not live long enough to see the turn of the wheel bring about, fleetingly, a world that will make leftists' hair catch fire.

Anybody else read 'The Camp of the Saints,' by Jean Raspail?
Anybody else see the similarity of our current southern border situation and that of the Atlantic coast during the 17th & 18th centuries? The Indians could have stopped the European invasion if they had united to do so but each tribe thought to use the Europeans as allies against their other Indian opponents. Now various US groups think they are using the Mexicans (etc.) against their own opponents (political, economic, virtue signalists, etc.) but in the end to the detriment of all.

Camp of the Saints is Atlas Shrugged for the excitable and intellectually lazy. Not saying I disagree with the story line, just saying if you want to think past it, you need to look elsewhere.

China has its own version of critical race theory. It states simply that the Chinese will soon rule the world and no inferior race can stop them.
Western critical race theory is a hot mess of a joke by comparison.

[Washington Examiner] The Democratic cybersecurity lawyer charged by special counsel John Durham with lying to the FBI about working for the Clinton campaign doesn’t want British ex-spy Christopher Steele’s dossier brought up at the trial following indications from the special counsel that it will be.
Michael Sussmann was indicted last year on charges of concealing his clients, Hillary Clinton's 2016 presidential campaign and "tech executive" Rodney Joffe, from FBI general counsel James Baker when he pushed since-debunked claims of a secret backchannel between the Trump Organization and Russia’s Alfa-Bank. He has pleaded not guilty.
Steele created his now-discredited dossier after being hired by opposition research firm Fusion GPS, which was itself hired by Perkins Coie and Marc Elias, the general counsel for Clinton’s campaign.
Durham appears to be building a case that many collusion claims can be sourced back to Democratic operatives or linked to the Clinton campaign.
Sussmann’s lawyers asked a federal judge on Monday to preclude three categories of evidence: the gathering of domain name system data by Joffe and others; the accuracy of that data and conclusions based on it; and "Christopher Steele and information he separately provided to the Federal Bureau of Investigation (including the so-called ’Steele Dossier’)."
The defense team argued: "The single false statement charge brought against Mr. Sussmann surely does not flow from the gathering of data, the accuracy of that data, the accuracy of the conclusions based on that data, or any information Mr. Steele may have provided to the FBI."
The lawyers argued Sussmann did not have "any awareness" that Steele was "separately providing information to the FBI."
"The Special Counsel has not charged a substantive scheme to defraud the government, nor has he charged a conspiracy to defraud the government," Sussmann's lawyers argued. "The manner in which the data was gathered, the objective strength and reliability of that data and/or conclusions drawn from the data, and the information that Christopher Steele separately provided to the FBI all have no bearing on the only crime the Special Counsel chose to charge."
Sussmann’s lawyers said that during a phone conference last month, Durham indicated that "he intends to introduce evidence and argument pertaining to reports and information" that Steele provided to the FBI, adding that Durham "presumably" intends to call Steele as a witness.

Foreign intelligence service involvement would have likely been coordinated by US domestic intelligence services. Of course the US legal team not want the potential involvement of a foreign intelligence service brought into the trial.
#2
Sussmann doesn't want the phony Steeledossier brought up during trial?
Wouldn't it be nice if we could just tell the courts what kind of trial we want (sarc)? The Steele dossier is kind of the centerpiece of the case. These people have been practicing lawfare for too long. !0 years ought to be added to any sentence for trying to use such a gimmick.

Not much different than current events in Urkraine. If you were able to follow this kak back to it's origins, I am reasonably certain you'd find yourself at the front gate of Langley.

Wonder if he feels the Epstein tightening around this neck. Can't have this stuff lead back to you know who.
[JUSTTHENEWS] Special Counsel John Durham is revealing new smoking gun evidence, a text message that shows a Clinton campaign lawyer lied to the FBI, while putting the courts on notice he is prepared to show the effort to smear Donald Trump ...The tack in the backside of the Democratic Party... with now-disproven Russia collusion allegations was a "conspiracy."
In a bombshell court filing late Monday night, Durham for the first time suggested Crooked Hillary Clinton ...former first lady, former secretary of state, former presidential candidate, Conqueror of Benghazi, Heroine of Tuzla, formerly described by her supporters as the smartest woman in the world, usually described by the rest of us as The Thing That Wouldn't Go Away. Politix is not one of her talents, but it's something she keeps trying to do... 's campaign, her researchers and others formed a "joint venture or conspiracy" for the purpose of weaving the collusion story to harm Trump's election chances and then the start of his presidency.
"These parties acted as 'joint venturer[s]' and therefore should be 'considered as co-conspirator[s],'" he wrote.
Durham also revealed he has unearthed a text message showing Hillary Clinton campaign lawyer Michael Sussmann falsely told the FBI he was not working on behalf of any client when he delivered now-discredited anti-Trump research in the lead-up to the 2016 election. In fact, he was working for the Clinton campaign and another client, prosecutors say.
The existence of the text message between Sussmann and then-FBI General Counsel James Baker was revealed in a court filing late Monday night by Durham's team. Prosecutors said they intend to show Sussmann gave a false story to the FBI but then told the truth about working on behalf of the Clinton campaign when he later testified to Congress.
"Jim — it's Michael Sussmann. I have something time-sensitive (and sensitive) I need to discuss," Sussmann texted Baker on Sept. 18, 2016, according to the new court filing. "Do you have availability for a short meeting tomorrow? I'm coming on my own — not on behalf of a client or company — want to help the Bureau. Thanks."
Prosecutors said the text message will become essential evidence at trial to show Sussmann lied to the FBI.
"The defendant lied in that meeting, falsely stating to the General Counsel that he was not providing the allegations to the FBI on behalf of any client," Durham's motion said. "In fact, the defendant had assembled and conveyed the allegations to the FBI on behalf of at least two specific clients, including (i) a technology executive ("Tech Executive-1") at a U.S.-based Internet company ("Internet Company-1"), and (ii) the Clinton Campaign."
The prosecutor noted that in House testimony a year later Sussmann admitted he made the FBI approach at the instruction of his client.
"We had a conversation, as lawyers do with their clients, about client 1 needs and objectives and the best course to take for a client," Sussmann testified in a deposition taken by then-House Intelligence Committee Republican investigative counsel Kash Patel. "And so it may have been a decision that we came to together. I mean, I don't want to imply that I was sort of directed to do something against my better judgment, or that we were in any sort of conflict."
Durham also told the court he plans to present evidence that Sussmann worked with the Clinton campaign, tech executive Rodney Joffe, identified as Tech Executive-1, and others in a "joint venture" to promote a now-disproven story that Donald Trump had a secret computer channel at the Moscow-based Alfa Bank with the Kremlin to hijack the election.

None of this will make any difference. If there's one thing I've learned, you can force facts directly in front of people's faces and they still will refuse to change what they think. It's sad, honestly. We would have such a better world if this wasn't the case.
That to secure these Rights, Governments are instituted among Men, deriving their just Powers from the Consent of the Governed, that whenever any Form of Government becomes destructive of these Ends, it is the Right of the People to alter or to abolish it, and to institute new Government, laying its Foundation on such Principles, and organizing its Powers in such Form, as to them shall seem most likely to effect their Safety and Happiness. Prudence, indeed, will dictate that Governments long established should not be changed for light and transient Causes; and accordingly all Experience hath shewn, that Mankind are more disposed to suffer, while Evils are sufferable, than to right themselves by abolishing the Forms to which they are accustomed. But when a long Train of Abuses and Usurpations, pursuing invariably the same Object, evinces a Design to reduce them under absolute Despotism, it is their Right, it is their Duty, to throw off such Government, and to provide new Guards for their future Security.

Alas... had the writers of these fancy things been less loquacious and more direct.
God's laws were so much wiser even if they lacked the pomp of hollow and mutable rhetoric. Who judges today what causes are 'too light and transient'? And all some clever bastitches have to do is make the 'long Train of Abuses and Usurpations' all about the slavery and the cotton picking. And there you are.
Mankind today cannot sit complacent adhering to dead men's ideas of what a State is and where freedoms begin and end.

Sorry, I just believe constitutions must evolve with the times. When they were written they were cute. An attempt at godhood, a declaration of implied nobility. Today, they are toys for the enablers of predators, thugs and ravagers.

..it has. It's been amended 27 times in accordance with Article V. It's not impossible. If you read the American Constitution, understand the unamended base document is a contract between 13 sovereign states and a national government, ratified by the state legislature not by plebiscite, thus the requirement that the states have a say in the amending process.

Constitution has a built in change mechanism as pointed out by Procopius2k. Those that want to scrap the Constitution and start over are those that know that their changes would be unpopular and couldn't get through the established way.

No. The right to "life liberty & the pursuit of happiness" does NOT imply the right to pursue "happiness" (defined cannibalistically or otherwise) by denying fellow citizens their lives or liberties.

[Breitbart] The Department of Homeland Security disseminated a recently drafted mass migration plan which includes a focus on a “Whole of Western Hemisphere” approach as a solution to the worsening border crisis. Part of the plan includes efforts to improve living conditions outside the United States as the country contends with the hottest inflation since 1982.
The agency’s outreach plan includes a focus on working with countries throughout the hemisphere on issues such as job creation, credit access, improved law enforcement cooperation, and stimulating industry. The document shifts blame for the immigration crisis away from pull factors within the United States.
The draft goals include:
Promote appropriate policies on migration, promote savings and investment opportunities to create jobs, and develop sustainable means of livelihood for the poorest and most vulnerable sectors.
Recognize remittances as an important source of capital in many countries of the hemisphere.
Strengthen social inclusion of migrants.
Increasing access to credit and micro-credit
Improving security, among other factors, so that the impulse to migrate is reduced.
Stimulating industrial and technology sectors.
Ensure appropriate legal protections, defense of human rights, and safe and healthy labor conditions for migrants.
Reduce their vulnerable conditions at work.
The document, provided by a senior level Department of Homeland Security source, lists several factors abroad which are reportedly contributing to the increase in irregular migration to the United States. Among them, COVID-19, extreme weather, earthquakes, and severe economic decline. All, according to the document, have been worsened by climate change.
The document offers little hope of increased enforcement along the southwest border. The CDC Title 42 emergency authority that allows for swift expulsion of some migrants from the United States is predicted to cause an additional surge of migrants in short order. As reported by Breitbart Texas, the program will soon end. On Friday, the CDC announced the end of the program effective May 23 and will no longer be used as a removal mechanism for migrants who enter the United States illegally.
