Daily Broadside | White House Occupant Secretly Flying Illegal Aliens Directly Into US From Foreign Countries

A word about last night’s “State of the Union” address. I didn’t watch it due to a prior commitment. But everything I’ve read about it fits Biden’s MO. Todd Starnes labeled it a “rage speech.” Biden blamed everyone but himself for the sorry state of our disunion. He lashed out at Republicans. He threatened to make abortion rights the law of the land. He lied about how many jobs he’s created. He lied about how much of deficit cutter he is. He lied about Republicans wanting to cut Social Security. He lied about the SCOTUS Dobbs decision paving the way for Alabama’s state supreme court decision on in vitro fertilization. He flubbed Laken Riley’s name.

If that charade wasn’t enough to fry your bacon, I promised you a post that would. Here it is:

Brandon — the Dimwit in Diapers, the Geriatric Jerk, the head of the Biden Crime Family — is known for blaming Republicans, the State of Texas, a broken “system,” a lack of money, and President-in-Exile Donald Trump, for his “inability” to “fix” the southern “border” crisis.

All are lies, of course.

On his first day in office, Roomba Joe targeted Trump’s immigration policies for reversals, including reissuing protections established under DACA, stopping the $16 billion wall and rolling back immigration enforcement. In his first year in office, “[o]f Biden’s 296 immigration actions, 89 […] reversed or started to undo Trump policies, making clear the administration is doing more than unraveling his predecessor’s policies.”

More than 10 million foreigners have illegally infiltrated the United States since the Meatpuppet was installed in the White House as the result of a fixed election. Worse, it’s not that our border is overwhelmed by the sheer number of foreigners illegally walking, climbing, crawling, or scaling their way into the country, although it is. It’s that the miscreant in the oval office is making it as easy as possible for foreigners to skirt laws by flying them directly from their countries of origin to the city of their choice in the United States.

Efforts by open-border Democrats to blame the growing big-city migrant crisis on Texas and its program of busing illegal immigrants north are being upstaged by a new investigation showing that [so-called] President Joe Biden has secretly flown hundreds of thousands of illegal immigrants from Latin American airports to 43 U.S. cities.

The unusual program, kept from the public, involved at least 320,000 illegal immigrants the administration admits are “inadmissible” immigrants, far more than previously reported.

Despite facing a Freedom of Information Act lawsuit from the Center for Immigration Studies, the U.S. Customs and Border Protection has refused to identify the 43 airports it is dumping immigrants at after direct flights from Latin America.

Do you understand what’s happening? This is CRIMINAL CONDUCT. Biden and his administration are engaged in a criminal enterprise of flooding our country with foreigners who have no business whatsoever being here.

“The program at the center of the FOIA litigation is perhaps the most enigmatic and least-known of the Biden administration’s uses of the CBP One cellphone scheduling app, even though it is responsible for almost invisibly importing by air 320,000 aliens with no legal right to enter the United States since it got underway in late 2022,” said Todd Bensman, the report’s author.

“Under these legally dubious parole programs, aliens who cannot legally enter the country use the CBP One app to apply for travel authorization and temporary humanitarian release from those airports. The parole program allows for two-year periods of legal status during which adults are eligible for work authorization,” he wrote.

In just 2023 they flew 320,000 illegals into the U.S. But that’s not all.

The direct flight program is in addition to another one that gives CBP One users a green light into the U.S. That program, the report said, “has brought in another 420,000 immigrants from nearly 100 nations from May 2021 through December 2023.”

These criminal executives are subverting law and order, the social contract, and the U.S. Constitution. They’re acting like a cartel engaged in human smuggling. This isn’t just an impeachable offence; it’s treason.

Coming to the United States involves a long, difficult, strenuous, expensive and dangerous journey for most aliens. The Atlantic and Pacific Oceans provide natural barriers on either end of the country, with the Atlantic wrapping around the southeast into the Gulf of Mexico. The only border we have on the south is with Mexico, which does nothing to prevent illegals from walking up through their country to our border.

And now we have a chief executive who was sworn to defend the U.S. Constitution from its enemies—both foreign and domestic—abusing the power of his office to carry out an unconstitutional, oath-breaking attack on the citizens he was sworn to protect.

He should be arrested, tried and sentenced to life in prison (or worse), along with the other criminals in his administration.

How long will we stand this assault on our country?

Have a good weekend.

Daily Broadside | We All Know Biden Didn’t Win in 2020. Here’s More Evidence

I was planning to write about something else but I go off on a tangent here. I’ll offer it up tomorrow and I guarantee it will have you seeing red. It will leave you gobsmacked.

Tricky Nikki dropped out of the presidential race yesterday, leaving the field to Trump. She left the contest without endorsing the presumptive nominee, although she did wish him well. As Ace said, “Her pointless Ego Ride is over.”

Now that that is out of the way, let’s focus on turning out the vote so that it’s not close enough to cheat. Speaking of which, Rassmussen Reports posted on X yesterday that “Joe Biden didn’t ‘win’ Georgia in Nov 2020” because they DIDN’T DO ANY SIGNATURE VERIFICATION. None.

They didn’t use the signature verification machines in Fulton County, GA, nor in Maricope County, AZ, where officials DID NOT VERIFY 1.9 MILLION SIGNATURES.

Trump won the 2020 election; we know it, they know it, and yet “they” pointed at all the judges who refused to take any of the cases and said, “See! Even ‘Trump’ judges are refusing to take the cases.” The whole system is fraudulent.

What could have been.

Daily Broadside | 10 Million Foreigners Have Illegally Entered the U.S. Since January 2021

Wasn’t it great being America? I remember it like it was yesterday.

Nearly 7.3 million migrants have illegally crossed the southwest border under President Biden’s watch, a number greater than the population of 36 individual states, a Fox News analysis finds.

That figure comes from US Customs and Border Protection, which has already reported 961,537 border encounters in the current fiscal year, which runs from October through September.

If the current pace of illegal immigration does not slow down, fiscal year 2024 will break last year’s record of 2,475,669 southwest border encounters — a number that by itself exceeds the population of New Mexico, a border state. 

The total number of southwest land border encounters since Biden assumed office in 2021 is 7,298,486, CBP data shows. 

And where does the 10,000,000 number come from? The “gotaways.”

And the total does not include an estimated additional 1.8 million known “gotaways” who evaded law enforcement, which would make it bigger than New York. 

Taken together, nearly 10 million migrants have crossed into the US illegally during the Biden administration, a record Biden’s critics assert could only be achieved by intentionally refusing to enforce the law. 

Ya think?

Joseph Robinette Biden Jr., is an incompetent, arrogant, outrageous, treasonous, and intentionally subversive of American sovereignty and law. This appalling dereliction of duty should rightfully have him impeached and thrown out of office.

But he poses like his hands are tied and tries to blame Republicans for the open borders, when he in fact is the author of the situtation. Now he says he’s considering taking action without Congress, which implies that he’s going to be the hero.

But he has all the authority he needs already. This subversion isn’t without purpose. Why do you think the Democrats are doing this?

They’re doing it to replace white, middle class Americans as the majority. They’re importing voters, even if they have to do it illegally — and they are. They’re importing a class of people who have no interest in being “American” but who will gladly take the handouts that the government will give them. And those 10 million “black and brown bodies” will reproduce offspring quickly, creating anchor babies, and before you know it, those 10 million will be 20 or 30 million as chain migration takes hold.

Welcome to the third world.

Unfortunately, we no longer live in a nation of laws that are carried out impartially by men of integrity and honor. We are subject instead to a fusion of politicians and business titans that imposes its will on us through an abuse of the law, applied to the oligarchy’s enemies.

Brandon is merely a figurehead. He isn’t smart enough to be this dastardly; but he is petty and contemptible enough to do what his masters direct him to do.

The best thing that could happen is that he is removed from office this November. Good luck.

Have a good weekend.

Daily Broadside | Political Hack and Pretend President Brandon is a Fabulist and Americans Don’t Like Him

Before I get to the meat of what I wanted to write about today, subversive anti-American Homeland “Security” Secretary Alejandro Mayorkas faces an impeachment vote in the House of Representatives today. Because Republicans have a narrow majority, it is unlikely that Mayhorkas will be impeached. Even if he is, the Senate won’t convict.

With that drama happening in the halls of the clown show that is Washington, D.C., I give you your “president”:

That’s Joe “Trunalimunumaprzure!” Biden telling his audience that after he became “president” he met with French president Francois Mitterrand and told him, “AmERiCa iS BaCk, bABy!” (slightly edited for clarity). The only difficulty with that (I mean, if you look at it from a certain angle) is that MITTERRAND HAS BEEN DEAD FOR 28 YEARS. Oh, and that Brandon referred to the dead French president as the “Chancellor of Germany.” But other than that, totally right on, Fat.

Those of you who put him in office three years ago, you go right ahead and vote for this pathetic excuse of a politician and “leader” of the free world again this November.

In the meantime you’ll have to work really hard to overcome the headwinds that your brilliant Mensa-level genius faces from president-in-exile Donald J. Trump.

President Joe Biden hit yet another new low in his approval rating (37%) in the latest NBC News poll released Sunday, raising concern of the Democrat pollster, who said the “damning” results show “a presidency in peril.”

Former President Donald Trump not only leads Biden by 5 points (47%-42%) in the national poll, but also leads by big margins:

  • 23 points on mental and physical health to be president (46%-23%)
  • 22 points on handling the economy (55%-33%)
  • 21 points on dealing with crime and violence (50%-29%)
  • 16 points on being competent and effective (48%-32%)
  • 11 points on improving America’s standing in the world (47%-36%)
  • 35 points on securing the southern border (57%-22%)

Illegal immigration has been widely deemed the No. 1 voting issue, according to exit polls in the early GOP primary states.

I’d bold those numbers to emphasize them, but they’re all great.

“On every measure compared to 2020, Biden has declined. Most damning, the belief that Biden is more likely to be up to the job — the chief tenet of the Biden candidacy — has evaporated.”

The numbers look great now for Trump and “difficult” for the incumbent going into the heart of the 2024 primary cycle, according to Republican pollster Bill McInturff of Public Opinion Strategies.

“It is hard to imagine a more difficult set of numbers before a reelection,” McInturff told NBC News.

With 73% of registered voters say the U.S. is on the wrong track under Biden, the only silver lining for the sitting president and Horwitt is there remains time to turn the numbers back around.

Basically, three out of four registered voters think Biden has screwed us up. And he has.

But the momentum in all areas, as the pollsters noted, remains steadily rising for Trump:

  • Border: Trump raised lead from 16 points in September 2020 to 35 points in January 2024.
  • Economy: Trump raised his 7-point lead in October 2020 to 22 points today.
  • Crime and violence: Trump turned a 4-point deficit during the 2020 riots to a 21-point lead today, a swing of 25 points.
  • Competent and effective: Trump flipped a 9-point deficit in June 2020 to a 16-point lead today, another 25-point swing.
  • Mental and physical health to be president: Trump turned a 1-point deficit in October 2020 — when he was hospitalized with COVID-19 — into a 23-point lead today.

All of these numbers are from an NBC poll. NBC is a far-left mouthpiece for the Democrat party; if their polling shows Trump with this kind of lead, the numbers themselves are probably actually better than being reported.

But.

The Democrats, the media, the progressives, the Marxists and the Leftists (is there an echo in here?) will absolutely, positively, wholly, utterly, completely and totally cheat to win the 2024 election. There is no doubt, uncertainty, hesitation, ambiguity, misgivings or skepticism about it.

In a recent article from The Epoch Times (I encourage you to subscribe), author Kevin Stocklin looks back at how a “well-funded cabal” influenced stole the 2020 election and how that will undoubtably affect the 2024 election.

While former President Donald Trump appears to be cruising toward the GOP nomination with a polling lead over incumbent President Joe Biden in key swing states, Republicans will likely face a much steeper climb in the general election than they realize.

Fundamental changes in state election laws, coupled with an alliance of left-wing federal, corporate, financial, and nonprofit entities, have handed the Democratic Party advantages that the GOP may be unable to overcome.

[…]

In 2020, the landscape shifted in the wake of two events: The COVID-19 pandemic and the death of George Floyd in police custody. A narrative emerged that existing state voting laws had to change because they were racist and hazardous to public health.

The 2020 ‘Shadow Campaign’
In a laudatory 2021 article in Time titled “The Secret History of the Shadow Campaign That Saved the 2020 Election,” author Molly Ball detailed a “well-funded cabal of powerful people, ranging across industries and ideologies, working together behind the scenes to influence perceptions, change rules and laws, steer media coverage, and control the flow of information.”

While praising the effort, Ms. Ball said that the actors “were not rigging the election; they were fortifying it.”

The key to the whole mirage of a non-rigged election were the changes to “rules and laws” that affected how and when people could vote.

The “conspiracy,” as Ms. Ball described it, included DNC operatives, union leaders, tech and social-media companies, Wall Street bankers, and a network of nonprofit donor funds that pooled hundreds of millions of dollars to finance “armies of poll workers and got millions of people to vote by mail for the first time.”

While the coalition’s purpose, ostensibly, was “saving democracy,” the overriding goal was to keep President Trump from winning a second term.

And the “well-funded cabal” appears to be gearing up for a repeat performance in 2024, with a few new twists.

Interesting that the Left felt the need to “fortify” the election to keep Trump from winning a second term and that, lo and behold!, the results favored them.

The DNC and groups allied with them rely on a five-part strategy to ensure that President Trump didn’t then and will not now get a second term.

That strategy includes intense legal pressure on state election officials to loosen voter integrity laws, a data nerve center that contains personal profiles of voters to predict how they will vote, an alliance of left-wing foot soldiers to bring out Democratic votes in key swing states, a collection of groups capable of bringing violence and mass unrest to cities and towns if called upon, and a network of financing vehicles to fund it all.

It’s not impossible for Trump to win, but after the gross misconduct of the Left in the 2020 election, all bets are off.

Daily Broadside | Our Fake American Leader Now Has Blood On His Hands

Along with those who fortified the 2020 election, who also have blood on their hands.

Three American service members were killed early on Jan. 28 in a drone attack on a small U.S. base in Jordan, the Biden administration said in a statement. At least two dozen other troops were injured in the incident, U.S. officials said.

They were the first U.S. fatalities after months of strikes by Iranian-backed groups against American forces across the Middle East since the start of the Israel–Hamas conflict in Gaza, the White House and military officials confirmed. President Joe Biden vowed to hold the perpetrators to account; so far, no organization or government has claimed responsibility.

“Today, America’s heart is heavy,” the president said in a Jan. 28 statement. “Last night, three U.S. service members were killed—and many wounded—during an unmanned aerial drone attack on our forces stationed in northeast Jordan near the Syria border.”

U.S. officials are still working to conclusively identify the precise group responsible for the attack but have assessed that one of several Iranian-backed groups is responsible.

This loss of life is a direct result of Joe Biden’s intentional, strategic and treasonous subversion of our military fitness and his feckless priorities.

Under President Donald J. Trump, there were no new wars and our enemies understood that if they crossed us, Trump would deal severely with them. Under Brandon we abandoned Afghanistan and gave our enemies $81 billion in war machines, Russia attacked Ukraine, China has openly threatened Taiwan, North Korea has started lobbing missiles from both coasts, and Iran proxy Hamas savagely attacked Israel.

All because Trump said “pu**y.”

Well, not really. All because Trump is a viable threat to the oligarchy’s rule.

But I digress.

We’ve lost three soldiers and have 27 other casualties as a direct result of Brandon’s fake Americanism. What do you suppose our response will be? “President” Mush-for-Brains is in league with the Iranians and is allowing them to develop nuclear weapons to change the balance of power in the Middle East, something that has B. Hussein Obama’s fingerprints all over it.

President Biden’s statement accused “radical” groups backed by Iran operating in Iraq and Syria for the attacks, saying the United States “will hold all those responsible to account at a time and in a manner our choosing,” without providing more details.

Here’s what he’ll do: he will send a couple of missiles into Iran or find a proxy somewhere to be the scapegoat. Whatever Brandon does, Iran will lose very little sleep over it and will instead use our response to gin up the radicals’ hatred with demonstrations and threats of violence.

And then, maybe, those single men of military fighting age from the Middle East who have crossed our southern border unmolested will “hold those responsible to account at a time and in a manner” of their own choosing.

Like on a train, a plane, or in a car in the center of Times Square.

Daily Broadside | The Big Question is Who You Will Vote for in 2024

The big, fat, hairy, looming anxiety everyone has coming into 2024 is the question of whether Donald J. Trump will regain the presidency. Joe Biden is doing his best to demonize Trump and all of his supporters.

BLUE BELL, Pa. — BLUE BELL, Pa. (AP) — President Joe Biden warned Friday that Donald Trump’s efforts to retake the White House in 2024 pose a grave threat to the country, the day before the third anniversary of the violent riot at the U.S. Capitol by then-President Trump’s supporters aiming to keep him in power.

Speaking near Valley Forge, Pennsylvania, where George Washington and the Continental Army spent a bleak winter nearly 250 years ago, Biden said that Jan. 6 2021, marked a moment where “we nearly lost America — lost it all.” He said the presidential race — a likely rematch with Trump, who is the far and away GOP frontrunner — is “all about” whether American democracy will survive.

The speech, the president’s first political event of the election year, was intended to clarify the expected choice for voters this fall. Biden, who reentered political life because he felt he was best capable of defeating Trump in 2020, believes focusing on defending democracy to be central to persuading voters to reject Trump once again.

Full of hyperbole and fear-mongering, the speech packed plenty of disinformation malinformation. We didn’t “nearly lose America” on January 6. But we’ve nearly lost it—”lost it all”—in the years since, as the Biden DOJ, FBI and Garland’s Gestapo have hounded, imprisoned, tried and sentenced protestors to outrageous sentences, who were doing nothing but walking through the Capitol building that day. Did you know that they’re now pursuing protestors who were merely wandering around outside the Capitol on January 6? Not those who went inside, but those were merely present? We’re becoming subject to a tyrannical surveillance state that protects the powerful and abuses the patriotic.

And while this election IS all about “whether American democracy will survive,” it’s not in the way Brandon means it. He means that if Trump is elected, “American democracy” won’t survive. First and foremost, the United States is a representative republic, not a democracy. As Jay McConville writes,

We do not have pure democracy or “rule by the majority” because we have constitutionally protected rights that cannot be voted away, [we] operate under rule of law, and have, till recently, limited government with limited powers.

The Founders rejected a pure democracy. They were aware of what a tyranny of the majority would exact from the people. The word “democracy” is never used in our Constitution or in the Declaration of Independence or the Bill of Rights. Any time a Democrat uses the term “democracy” you can be sure it is their own ignorance being used in the service of perpetuating a lie.

Second, the true threat to our “democracy” is Brandon and his ilk, not Donald Trump. They are waging a PR campaign against Trump, trying to dissuade the American public from supporting him. The Russia! Russia! Russia! lies, the two impeachments, the raid on his house over “stolen” documents, the 91 criminal charges levied against him, the attempts to remove him from the ballot in Colorado, Maine, Michigan and Illinois, and now smearing him and “MAGA Republicans” as the biggest threat to our “democracy” is all a psyop to persuade Americans to abandon Trump.

Trump isn’t the one allowing hordes of illegal aliens to swarm over our border, bringing crime and disease with them. Trump isn’t the one who sent our economy into a tail spin. Trump isn’t the one who has shut down domestic drilling, which would provide cheap fuel, and free us of Middle East oil and the whims of the Saudis. Trump isn’t the one who has depleted our strategic oil reserves, our supply of ammunition and bombs, and has turned our military into a woke joke. Trump isn’t the one trying to regulate which kitchen appliances you can use or what kind of car you can drive. Trump isn’t the one who allowed the world to blow up on his watch in eastern Europe, the Middle East, or the Far East.

That’s all courtesy of Brandon and his administration that is hell-bent on destroying this country as founded. Yet he has the temerity to suggest that the real threat to America is Trump.

Biden has made the preservation of the American democratic system a central theme of his reelection effort, characterizing Trump’s supporters as members of an “extremist movement.”

“The choice is clear: Donald Trump’s campaign is about him. Not America, not you,” Biden said, according to Politico. “Donald Trump’s campaign is obsessed with the past, not the future. He’s willing to sacrifice our democracy, put himself in power.”

“Whether democracy is still America’s sacred cause is the most urgent question of our time. It is what the 2024 election is all about,” he also said. Biden further recalled the events of the Capitol riot and highlighted the participants’ wielding of Trump flags and Confederate flags.

“It was among the worst derelictions of duty by a president in American history,” he added.

This is pure, unadulterated BS. Biden’s puppet-masters are hyping a non-story. They’re the ones who are trying to keep themselves in power. They’re the ones willing to sacrifice our “democracy” on the altar of progressive Marxist dogma to make the US just another country that will be reliant on the elites in Davos and Brussels and New York to keep them fed and employed.

Here’s Dark Brandon’s latest campaign ad.

Trump is having none of it.

In his Valley Forge speech on Friday, Biden stated that “[w]hether democracy is still America’s sacred cause is the most urgent question of our time. It is what the 2024 election is all about.”

Trump, for his part, called Biden’s speech a “pathetic fearmongering campaign event” while addressing supporters in Iowa on Friday, The Hill reported. He went on to criticize Biden’s official tenure, saying “Joe Biden’s record is an unbroken streak of weakness, incompetence, corruption and failure.”

“[I]f you take a look at what he’s doing on the border or inflation, or our military, that horrible day in Afghanistan, you look at what he’s done with energy… All throughout the world, we’re an embarrassment as a country,” Trump lamented. “We’ve become an embarrassment as a country.”

Trump made his remarks in Sioux Center, Iowa, weeks ahead of the Iowa Caucus, the first nominating contest in the Republican primary.

You better be sure who you want in the White House, because it will most likely be one of these two. And one of them is wrecking our country right now.

Daily Broadside | Where Is the Earth-Shattering Ka-Boom?

That about sums it up for me as I wait for the Israeli offensive against the medieval barbarian bloodsoaked Jew-hating terrorists in the Gaza strip. Where the heck is the earth-shattering Ka-Boom!?

Speaking from her home in Israel, Glick said, “We are in danger of losing … sovereign control over our military.”

She then presented what sources told her really happened when secretary of state Tony Blinken met with Israel’s war cabinet on Monday.

“From what came out of the meeting, Tony Blinken wasn’t trying to help Israel at all. What he was doing was demanding that Israel enable resupply to Gaza, the euphemism of which is ‘humanitarian aid.’” She continued to say that Blinken threatened to withhold American war materiel from Israel, such as bunker buster bombs and regular ordinance.

And Israel didn’t just decide to invite Biden. His administration demanded that Israel invite him, she said, adding, “I don’t know; ask his presidential campaign.”

While Israel’s forces have been being held in limbo at the Gaza border, those charged with carrying out the mission began demanding they be allowed to go in. They cited difficulties in maintaining the readiness and morale of troops as well as a loss of the momentum they had after the October 7 massacre. Glick said that lapse in time also allowed the international media to turn on Israel. “We have all these Hamas supporters throughout the Western world who are feeling empowered, and not unreasonably given the backing they’re receiving from the media.”

Most disturbingly, Glick said commanders at the southern border were told, “We can’t do anything until Biden leaves. So that Biden is literally acting as a human shield for Hamas — so long as he hasn’t arrived yet, and hasn’t left yet, their terror state is going to be free from invasion.”

Our own illegitimate junta, installed by the anti-American institutions in our country, is undermining Israel’s resolve to decapitate Hamas. Our own United States’ extreme leftist political Marxist administration is protecting Hamas, not Israel.

What a humiliation for us. What a humiliation for Israel.

She continued to stress that demands to get humanitarian aid to Gaza are demands to resupply Hamas because they control every person and inch of land in Gaza…

Making matters worse, the U.S. said they would supply Israel with the bombs, but they weren’t allowed to use them against the missile launching sites — i.e., the UNRWA schools and hospitals.

It is well known that “Hamas military headquarters have been, for years, located under Shifa Hospital,” Glick said.

What Glick described about Blinken’s demands amounted to extortion: if Israel didn’t open up a humanitarian corridor — i.e., allow Hamas to be resupplied — the U.S. wouldn’t provide the bunker buster bombs and the ordinance for Israel’s fighter jets. Without those things, IDF ground forces would likely be slaughtered like the victims of October 7.

Adding insult to injury, Glick’s sources said the U.S. told Israel they weren’t allowed to “open up a war” with Lebanon despite being bombed from Hezb’allah in the north…

In a rare emotional monologue, she pointed out what we’ve known all along: the United States has been arming and funding the enemies of Israel.  (Glick doesn’t gloss over Obama’s contribution to this mess, either.)

So much for a strong alliance with the only democracy in the Middle East. So much for blunting Iran’s hegemony in the region. As J.J. Sefton wrote in a similar post yesterday, “‘We fully stand behind Israel’ Joey Sponge-Brain S***s-Pants declared without a dementia freeze. Yeah, Biden is standing behind Israel ready to shove it off a cliff.”

You know why? Because the Biden administration is saturated with pro-Iranian officials left over from the Obama administration. And not only that, there are actual Iranian spies that have been “discovered” in this administration.

The Biden administration’s now-suspended Iran envoy Robert Malley helped to fund, support, and direct an Iranian intelligence operation designed to influence the United States and allied governments, according to a trove of purloined Iranian government emails. The emails, which were reported on by veteran Wall Street Journal correspondent Jay Solomon, writing in Semafor, and by Iran International, the London-based émigré opposition outlet which is the most widely read independent news source inside Iran, were published last week after being extensively verified over a period of several months by the two outlets. They showed that Malley had helped to infiltrate an Iranian agent of influence named Ariane Tabatabai into some of the most sensitive positions in the U.S. government—first at the State Department and now the Pentagon, where she has been serving as chief of staff for the assistant secretary of defense for special operations, Christopher Maier.

We’ve allowed men and women who are infected with an anti-American and pro-Islamic values to not only infiltrate but wholly govern United States policy toward the East. This, my friends, IS NOT WHO WE ARE, to borrow a phrase.

But it’s what we’ve become.

While Israel waits for Brandon to stumble up the stairs of Air Force One and get his ice cream before being tucked into bed for the flight home, Hamas has had time to regroup, spread out the hostages, and exfiltrate any leaders they want to survive the expected Israeli onslaught to Iran. Iran has had time to position its proxies in Lebanon and Syria, and prepare itself to attack should it think Israel goes too far.

The analysts are right — Israel has lost the momentum, doubts have begun to creep in, the adrenaline has ebbed, and the enemy has had time to dig in.

Maybe by the time you read this, the assault has begun. Maybe not.

Pray for the peace of Jerusalem.

Have a good weekend.

Daily Broadside | The U.S. Has Blood on Its Hands

Don’t look away. SEE what the Hamas terrorists are doing. There’s no excusing or rationalizing it.

I hate to say it, but it looks like American policy in the Middle East played a more than significant role in the bloodshed being waged in Israel. I love my country, but I hate what my leaders have done and are doing.

For the better part of the past decade, the United States has pursued a foreign policy designed to strengthen Iran and enable it to form a strong sphere of influence in the region. This is the idea behind what Tony Badran and Michael Doran called “the realignment,” a vision of a new world order in which America partners with Iran in order to “find a more stable balance of power that would make [the Middle East] less dependent on direct U.S. interference or protection.” Those words aren’t Badran and Doran’s; they’re Robert Malley’s, Barack Obama’s lead negotiator on the Iran deal who, as Semafor reported this week, helped to infiltrate an Iranian agent of influence into some of the most sensitive positions in the U.S. government—first at the State Department and now the Pentagon, where she has been serving as chief of staff for the assistant secretary of defense for special operations. Biden himself, in an op-ed in The Washington Post, spoke of “an integrated Middle East,” using the phrase no less than three times to make clear that his administration was intent on pursuing his predecessor’s commitment to seeing Iran not as a U.S. foe but as our collaborator.

We are lead by idiots and treacherous imbeciles.

And the Biden administration wasn’t just talking the talk. It was also walking the walk, from unfreezing billions in assets to make it easier for Tehran to support its proxy Hezbollah-controlled Lebanon to sending huge cash infusions used primarily to pay the salaries of tens of thousands of unvetted “security personnel.” And while the previous administration halted all aid to the Palestinians—directly because of the “pay for slay” policies that support the families of those who slaughter Israelis—the Biden administration was quick to reverse the decision.

At least Trump had the good sense to cut off aid, but it barely slowed Hamas or Hezbollah with the “””election””” of Brandon. We need to not only cut off aid to these animals, we need to get Trump back in the White House.

In addition to creating the external circumstances for terror, the Biden administration did everything in its power to derail Israel’s democratically elected government and prevent it from being able to see an attack like today’s coming. That the Israelis let themselves fall for this was stupidity of criminal order. But the invisible hand here was America’s. Biden himself took to CNN to call Netanyahu’s government “the most extreme” he’s ever seen, and lost no opportunity to lecture his Israeli counterpart about democratic values. The former U.S. ambassador to Israel, Tom Nides, took the unprecedented step of intervening in the country’s domestic affairs, announcing ominously that he “think[s] most Israelis want the United States to be in their business.” And if words weren’t enough, the administration also sent American dollars to support the anti-Netanyahu NGOs organizing the protests that brought Israel to a halt for months. Netanyahu was famously denied an invite to the White House; his key opponent, opposition leader Benny Gantz, had no such problem.

It’s outrageous and embarrassing for us, not to mention deadly for the Israelis and the Palestinians who are being killed in the war they’ve started.

We need to get clear-eyed, and quickly. There is no negotiating or “managing” a nation or people group that seethes with hatred toward another nation. Iran and its proxies in Gaza and Lebanon, and other nations around the Middle East loathe Israel and the United States. When they chant “Death to America” or talk about pushing the Jews into the sea, they mean exactly that. More importantly, they mean to do it.

I once told an Arab in Jerusalem’s Arab quarter that I had heard that the Palestinians don’t want to share the land with Jews, but that they want to rid the land of them and he affirmed my statement.

The reason is eschatological: fighting the Jews will hasten the “last day.”

Media analysts are describing the latest attacks as a retaliation for Israel’s supposed desecration of the al-Aqsa Mosque, or for “settlement” activity, and all the usual half-truths, distortions and outright lies that characterize establishment media coverage of Israel. Ultimately, however, this is happening not because of al-Aqsa, or because of any “occupation,” since the “occupation” is a propaganda fiction anyway. It’s happening because of the Islamic imperative to fight Jews.

A hadith says: “Abu Huraira reported Allah’s Messenger (may peace be upon him) as saying: The last hour would not come unless the Muslims will fight against the Jews and the Muslims would kill them until the Jews would hide themselves behind a stone or a tree and a stone or a tree would say: Muslim, or the servant of Allah, there is a Jew behind me; come and kill him; but the tree Gharqad would not say, for it is the tree of the Jews.” (Sahih Muslim 6985) Read the beginning of the words attributed to Muhammad again: “The last hour would not come unless the Muslims will fight the Jews and the Muslims would kill them.”

So this is not a hadith about the “last day.” It is a hadith about the conditions under which the “last day” will come about, and how Muslims can bring about the “last day”: by killing Jews. The true believers of Hamas are busy doing it now.

That’s why Muslim nations don’t rest in their harassment and abuse of Jews, Christians and other infidels. They are commanded to fight in the name of Allah. While territorial claims may be part of the mix, the hostility is driven by an apocalyptic vision of Islam conquering all nations and their part in bringing it about.

It is a fanantical death cult that the U.S. has further enabled.

As far as that $6 billion that Brandon freed up for Iran: even though it hasn’t been distributed yet, here’s a former State Department advisor on Iran explaining to Fox News’s hapless Jennifer Griffin how Iran’s budgeting works. Go read the whole thing here.

How does it feel to know that your country funded the murder and mayhem in Israel?

Awful.

Daily Broadside | White House Delivers Marching Orders to Regime Media, Who Dutifully Report It

Freedom of the press is supposed to protect the press from government control. Supreme Court Justice Hugo Black wrote: “The press was to serve the governed, not the governors.” Like everything else the Democrats touch, the press is now a corrupted institution that protects the government from the governed.

The Biden White House sent a letter to its media allies Wednesday, directing them to intensify their “scrutiny” of House Republicans after Speaker Kevin McCarthy announced an impeachment inquiry into the Biden family’s influence-peddling operation.

It’s time for the media to ramp up its scrutiny of House Republicans for opening an impeachment inquiry based on lies. Impeachment is grave, rare, and historic. The Constitution requires ‘treason, bribery, or other high crimes and misdemeanors,” Ian Sams, a spokesperson for the White House Counsel’s Office, wrote in the letter to top U.S. news executives, according to CNN. “After nearly 9 months of investigating, House Republicans haven’t been able to turn up any evidence of the President doing anything wrong,” Sams added inaccurately.

If we had a truly free press, they’d tell the White House to go pound sand. But the White House knows who their allies are and isn’t afraid to use them. The MSM is simply a mouthpiece for the regime. As Glenn Reynolds over at Instapundit often says, “Just think of the media as Democratic party operatives with bylines, and it all makes sense.”

CNN astonishingly not only reported on the directive from the administration, but then went on to actually do what the White House asked.

The White House sent a letter to top US news executives on Wednesday, urging them to intensify their scrutiny of House Republicans after Speaker Kevin McCarthy launched an impeachment inquiry into President Joe Biden, despite having found no evidence of a crime.

“It’s time for the media to ramp up its scrutiny of House Republicans for opening an impeachment inquiry based on lies,” Ian Sams, a spokesperson for the White House Counsel’s Office, wrote in the letter, which was first obtained by CNN.

The letter, which said an impeachment inquiry with no supporting evidence should “set off alarm bells for news organizations,” was sent to executives helming the nation’s largest news organizations, including CNN, The New York Times, Fox News, the Associated Press, CBS News, and others, a White House official familiar with the matter said.

So far, so good. But then, in the very next paragraphs,

The correspondence comes one day after McCarthy announced that he had directed three House committees to begin an impeachment inquiry into Biden. House Republicans, most of whom have denied that disgraced former President Donald Trump committed any wrongdoing, have long sought to baselessly portray Biden as a corrupt, crime-ridden politician engaged in sinister activities.

While news organizations have published innumerable fact checks on the matter, they have also often failed to robustly call out the mis- and disinformation peddled by Republicans in their coverage, frustrating officials in the Biden White House who believe that the news media should be doing more to dispel lies that saturate the public discourse, CNN wrote without evidence.

Just kidding. I added that last part.

The report ends with this:

The Republican House-led investigations into Biden have yet to provide any direct evidence that the president financially benefited from Hunter Biden’s career overseas.

Just like the regime directed!

Yes, the White House is panicking, but they only have themselves to blame. As Victor Davis Hanson writes,

The Left is now suddenly voicing warnings that those who recently undermined the system could be targeted by their own legacies.

So, for example, now we read why impeachment is suddenly a dangerous gambit.

True, the Founders did not envision impeaching a first-term president the moment he lost his House majority. Nor did they imagine impeaching a president twice. And they certainly did not anticipate trying an ex-president in the Senate as a private citizen.

In modern times, the nation has not rushed to impeach a president without a special counsel investigation to determine whether the chief executive was guilty of “Treason, Bribery, or other high Crimes and Misdemeanors.”

But thanks to the Democrats, recent impeachments now have destroyed all those guardrails. After all, Trump was impeached the first time on the fumes of an exhaustive but fruitless 22-month, $40 million special counsel investigation—one designed to find him guilty of Russian “collusion” and thus to be removed from office but found no actionable offenses at all.

Instead, dejected Democrats moved immediately for a second try. In September 2019 a few weeks after Trump had announced his 2020 reelection bid, the Democratic House began to impeach the president on the new grounds that he had talked to the President Zelensky of Ukraine and said he might delay offensive arms shipments—unless the Ukrainians could demonstrate that they had ended corruption and, in particular, were no longer influenced by the Biden family quid pro quo shakedowns.

Trump was proven right: the Biden family is not just corrupt, but, in particular, Joe Biden as head of the family and Vice President had intervened in the internal politics of an aid recipient, by threatening not to delay but rather to cancel outright all U.S. aid to Ukraine—unless it fired Viktor Shokin, a Ukrainian prosecutor.

They’re circling the wagons, including the ones carrying CNN, MSNBC, NBC, ABC, The Washington Post, the New York Times, and all the other leftist mouthpieces.

“Freedom of the press” indeed.

Daily Broadside | It’s About Time the Meat Puppet Was Impeached

Now we’re getting somewhere.

Speaker Kevin McCarthy (R-Calif.) announced on Sept. 12 that the House will open an impeachment inquiry to investigate the possible involvement of President Joe Biden in the business dealings of his son Hunter Biden.

“House Republicans have uncovered serious and credible allegations into President Biden’s conduct. Taken together these allegations paint a picture of a culture of corruption,” Mr. McCarthy said.

“Today I am directing our house committee to open a formal impeachment inquiry into President Joe Biden. This logical next step will give our committees, the full power to gather all the facts and answers for the American public,” Mr. McCarthy said.

Look, I’m no fan of the timing or sequence of this impeachment inquiry. It comes after two failed attempts to impeach and remove president-in-exile Donald J. Trump during his first term, led by the unhinged harridan Nancy Pelosi, which may have the appearance of retaliation and will undoubtably be framed that way by the Marxist press corps (see below what I found after writing that).

But those impeachment proceedings were fabricated with flimsy evidence. The Democrats, true to form, weaponized the tool of impeachment by stretching its definition to get rid of the only man to face down the Deep State and its hideous strength. We were warned that once the Democrats frivolized the impeachment process, it would be very difficult to return it to its original purpose and solemnity: to remove a president “from Office on Impeachment for, and Conviction of, Treason, Bribery, or other high Crimes and Misdemeanors.”

In this case, however, there is overwhelming evidence that Brandon has committed, at the very least, “Bribery” and it very well may bleed into Treason. But the regime media insists that there is no evidence.

McCarthy’s decision represents a major reversal for the speaker after he told the conservative website Breitbart earlier this month that he wouldn’t open an impeachment inquiry without a vote of the full House. It comes as he doesn’t appear to have enough votes to proceed on the issue, facing skepticism from across the GOP spectrum due to the lack of evidence implicating the president in Hunter Biden’s transgressions.

It also marks a reversal for McCarthy from 2019, when he inveighed against Democrats for initiating an impeachment inquiry into then-President Donald Trump before a vote, questioning the legitimacy of such an investigation unless the House were to authorize it. House Democrats eventually voted to authorize it.

White House spokesman Ian Sams said in a statement that House Republicans have “turned up no evidence of wrongdoing” in nine months of investigating the president.

Rep. Scott Perry and company absolutely torched a “reporter” who wanted to know about the threat of impeachment “what evidence you have as opposed to allegations” and whether the inquiry is “about political revenge.”

“Ample predication.” You bet there is. As McCarthy said,

“Through our investigations, we have found that President Biden did lie to the American people about his own knowledge of his family’s foreign business dealings. Eyewitnesses have testified that the president joined on multiple phone calls and had multiple interactions, dinners resulted in cars and millions of dollars into his sons and his son’s business partners,” McCarthy said.

“We know that bank records show that nearly $20 million in payments were directed to the Biden family members and associates through various Shell companies. The Treasury Department alone has more than 150 transactions involving the Biden family. Another business associates that were flagged as suspicious activity by U.S. banks. Even a trusted FBI informant has alleged a bribe to the Biden family. Biden used his official office to coordinate with Hunter Biden’s business partners about Hunter’s role in Burisma, the Ukrainian energy company,” he continued. 

And there are also rumors that a recording of the Resident exists that, when made public, will shut down any talk of a second term (and hopefully put him behind bars).

One can only hope.
