-War on Police-
The Liberals "Declared" War on Police and Law and Order
[NationalFOP] Under the Biden (LSD) Regime, more than 100+ Police Officers have been shot in 2022 already.

17 of which were FATAL.

This is a major increase over 2021 and 2020 for the same time period. In short, another BIDEN/LSD "We Did That" achievement.

Side Note: Does Rantburg have a Biden "I DID THAT" image somewhere?

A Breakdown of the Attacks on Police officers can be seemed at the URL provided.

Obviously this is something the Liberal media avoids reporting.

#4  I'm sure they couldn't have done it without gradually compromised selection and operational policies first, and affirmative action for decades. Without that, the police would have declared war on the liberals. And ended it.

#5  ^ Correct. It began with appointment of ideological Police Chiefs (AA hires) and then ideological DAs elected via Soros. By the time we all became aware, it was too late - the system was in place. Now comes the very hard work of dismantling to the best our ability. It will only ever be partially successful.

Rehash of 2017: The Run-Off for French President Will Again Feature Macron Vs. Le Pen

#2  "Speaking to her own supporters in the French capital on Sunday night, Le Pen portrayed the incumbent president as a globalist puppet who could not be trusted."

That describes most of the West's leaders.

#3  ^ Those same globalists already hate Le Pen as much as they did Trump if not even more so. They will say all kinds of mean and nasty things about her, concoct all kinds of fables about the bad things she's done or will do. They might even have her whacked. Let's just hope she has excellent security.

Democrats lead $9 billion pork barrel spree through revived earmarking process

#1  $9B in a $1.5T bill isn't much.

I'm pretty sure there are other earmarks that weren't counted.

But this was only the omnibus appropriations act. In the Infrastructure Investment and Jobs Act passed in Nov 2021, which was a $700B bill, had hundreds of earmarks also.

Florida congressman files bill letting states enforce immigration laws when feds don't
[JustTheNews] Legislation announced after Biden administration decided to terminate Title 42 restrictions on illegal migrants.

Rep. Bill Posey, R-Fla., has filed a bill that would give states a greater ability to enforce immigration laws when the federal government fails to do so.

Posey and Florida Attorney General Ashley Moody announced his bill, the Immigration and Enforcement Partnership Act of 2022, after the Biden administration decided to terminate Title 42, a federal public health rule used during national public health emergencies.

Moody has sued the administration several times for violating immigration law.
So long as Joe Biden is in the White House, this is merely theater until the Republicans get veto-proof majorities in both Houses of Congress — though a useful demonstration to the voters of a key difference between Democrats and Republicans. The lawsuits have a better chance of success.
“Maintaining operational control over our nation's borders is critical to our security and our ability to stop human traffickers, drug smugglers and other violent criminals and terrorists who mean to do our communities harm,” Posey said. “When the federal government abdicates its role in protecting our nation’s borders and refuses to enforce immigration laws allowing millions of people to illegally cross into our country, states should have authority to protect their citizens.”

HR 7413 would allow state officials to require the DHS secretary to enforce federal immigration law in certain circumstances. It gives DHS the option to enforce the law or deputize state officials to carry out federal immigration duties instead.

According to the bill, state attorneys general would identify how DHS isn’t fulfilling its non-discretionary duties under Title II of the Immigration and Nationality Act, which includes arresting, detaining and removing criminal and arriving illegal immigrants. It also requires the courts to expedite proceedings related to these actions to the greatest extent practicable, according to a summary of the bill.

“In less than a year and a half, the Biden administration has obliterated our southwest border and it’s about to get even worse as the president prepares to end Title 42,” Moody said in a statement. “We can no longer trust this administration to enforce the law. It is time for swift action to protect the American people. That is why Representative Posey and I are taking this matter to Congress and asking the legislative branch to let the states protect our citizens by enforcing public-safety immigration laws when Biden won’t.”

In President Joe Biden’s first year in office, after he implemented an open border policy, more than two million people from over 150 countries were encountered or apprehended by Customs and Border Protection (CBP) agents entering the U.S. illegally. This number excludes an estimated several hundred thousand that evaded law enforcement.

Title 42 has been viewed as the last measure holding back the floodgates of people entering the U.S. illegally through the southern border after the Biden administration instituted sweeping immigration changes, prompting multiple lawsuits by several states and groups, including Florida. When Title 42 expires May 24, an estimated 18,000 people a day are expected to enter the U.S. illegally, border agents say. Both Democrats and Republicans have called on the Biden administration to follow immigration law and not end Title 42, to no avail.

Even though Title 42 enables Customs and Border Patrol agents to quickly refuse entry or deport illegal immigrants, due to new Department of Homeland Security policies instituted by DHS Secretary Alejandro Mayorkas, deportations were down by 70% last year, according to CBP data. Under new guidance issued by Mayorkas, CBP agents are limited in their ability to enforce federal immigration law.

Illegal immigration costs Florida taxpayers more than $100 million a year, Posey and Moody said.

“The cost to public safety is harder to calculate as the nation struggles with a deadly opioid crisis claiming 21 lives a day in Florida,” they said in a joint statement.

Posey and Moody are concerned that the federal government’s “seeming disinterest with enforcing immigration laws will exacerbate the opioid crisis and leave the door open for unmitigated drug and human trafficking.

“The crisis is being exacerbated by fentanyl, a synthetic opioid 100 times stronger than morphine,” they argued in a joint statement. “According to CBP, since Biden took office, the amount of fentanyl seized at the border is enough to kill every man, woman and child in the nation more than seven times over.”

With Mexico being the number one source of fentanyl imports into the U.S., it’s imperative that states be able to enforce federal immigration law when the federal government won’t, Posey and Moody argue.
