ILLEGAL MIGRANT Surge: Labour’s Broken Promises Exposed
— Since Prime Minister Sir Keir Starmer’s Labour Party took power on July 4th, over 20,110 ILLEGAL migrants have crossed the Channel into Britain. This figure marks a 15% increase compared to the same period last year under Tory leadership. The Home Office attributes this rise to favorable weather conditions rather than policy changes.
Leaked analysis suggests October and November saw the calmest Channel days since tracking began in 2018, facilitating crossings. During these months, 6,288 migrants arrived compared to just 768 last year. Despite weather explanations, the surge challenges Starmer’s government as he promised to combat illegal migration by targeting human trafficking networks legally.
The government plans to introduce new measures against illegal crossings but won’t include returning migrants to France, where international law suggests they should stay. This ongoing crisis strains public resources and highlights broader migration issues as legal net migration approaches one million annually in Britain.
HISPANIC Voters TURN to Trump: Discontent with Biden’s Policies
— A recent poll from The New York Times shows 35% of Hispanic voters feel Donald Trump’s policies helped them, compared to just 22% for President Biden. This suggests a preference for Trump’s approach over the current administration. The data raises questions about President Biden’s absence from campaign trails alongside Vice President Harris.
Munoz emphasized growth and improvement in key economic areas under Vice President Harris’s vision, claiming it resonates with Latino voters. However, he acknowledged the challenge of effectively reaching these communities through traditional polling methods. Munoz argued that Latino voters seek candidates who promise change rather than maintaining the status quo associated with Trump.
Burman highlighted that only 20% of Hispanic voters rate the economy as excellent or good, while 80% describe it as fair or poor — indicating dissatisfaction with current economic conditions. Despite this, Munoz remained optimistic about influencing voter perception in the remaining days before elections. He stressed focusing on ground-level engagement over relying solely on polling numbers to sway opinions among Hispanic constituents.
FEDERAL GOVERNMENT’S Secretive Move: Illegal Immigrants Relocated OUT Of California
— The FEDERAL GOVERNMENT is moving illegal immigrants from California’s southern border to other states. San Diego County Supervisor Jim Desmond says this strategy avoids street releases, which could harm optics before the November election. Desmond noted that about 155,000 migrants were released in San Diego from September 2023 through June.
Migrants used to be dropped off at the Iris Avenue train station in San Diego. Now, three buses take them daily to Yuma, Arizona. Additionally, three to four flights each week move illegal immigrants from San Diego to McAllen, Texas, where facilities can handle more people.
Desmond criticized the federal government’s actions as an attempt to hide the situation rather than tackle it directly by resuming street releases. He believes this decision is politically motivated and likely influenced by upcoming elections. Fox News Digital reached out for comments from Border Patrol but has not received a response yet.
Before these relocations began, mass migrant releases overwhelmed San Diego’s services and resources. Some migrants also arrive by boat along California’s coastlines, adding further strain on local infrastructure and resources.
BIDEN’S Border Chaos: Record Crossings Spark Outrage
— President Biden’s border policy is facing intense scrutiny as illegal crossings hit record highs. Critics argue that the administration’s approach has led to chaos and insecurity at the southern border. Republican lawmakers are calling for immediate action to restore order.
Texas Governor Greg Abbott has deployed additional state resources to manage the surge. He stated, “The federal government’s failure leaves us no choice but to protect our own borders.” Local communities are feeling the strain, with many residents expressing concerns over safety and resources.
Homeland Security Secretary Alejandro Mayorkas defended the administration’s strategy, claiming it aims for a “humane” approach. However, many believe this leniency only encourages more illegal immigration.
With midterm elections approaching, border security remains a hot-button issue. Republicans see this as an opportunity to highlight what they view as Biden’s failed policies and push for stricter enforcement measures.
Biden’s BORDER Policies are FAILING: Shocking New Data Exposed
— New data reveals that President Biden’s border policies are not working. The number of illegal crossings has skyrocketed, causing major concerns. Border Patrol agents are overwhelmed, and many believe the administration is not doing enough to secure the border.
Critics argue that Biden’s approach is too lenient and invites more illegal immigration. They say stronger measures are needed to protect the country and ensure safety. This includes building more barriers and increasing patrols along the border.
Supporters of stricter policies claim that current strategies fail to address the root problems. They emphasize that without tougher enforcement, illegal crossings will continue to rise, putting a strain on resources and communities near the border.
The debate over how to handle immigration continues, but one thing is clear: Biden’s current policies are facing serious challenges. Many Americans want change and demand action to secure the nation’s borders effectively.
BIDEN’S Border Failure: Communities Suffer Amid Migrant Surge
— President Biden’s border policy is under scrutiny as a new wave of migrants arrives at the southern border. Border Patrol agents report an unprecedented surge, straining resources and personnel.
Republican leaders criticize the administration for what they call a “failed approach” to immigration. Texas Governor Greg Abbott stated, “The federal government must take immediate action to secure our borders.”
Homeland Security Secretary Alejandro Mayorkas insists the administration is handling the situation effectively. However, many conservatives argue that current policies encourage illegal crossings.
The debate over border security continues to heat up as communities near the border feel the impact. Calls for stricter enforcement and policy changes grow louder from Republican lawmakers and citizens alike.
Biden’s BORDER Crisis: SHOCKING Surge in Illegal Crossings Alarms Americans
— The border crisis under President Biden has reached alarming levels. New data shows a shocking surge in illegal crossings, leaving many Americans concerned. The situation at the southern border is deteriorating, with record numbers of migrants attempting to enter the country.

BIDEN’S Border Policy Disaster: Record Migrant Surge Sparks Outrage
— The Biden administration’s border policies are facing renewed scrutiny as record numbers of migrants overwhelm U.S. border facilities. Critics argue that the administration’s lenient stance has encouraged illegal crossings, leading to chaos and insecurity.
Customs and Border Protection (CBP) reported over 250,000 encounters in September alone, a historic high. This surge has strained resources and raised concerns about national security and public safety.
Republican lawmakers are calling for immediate action to secure the border. “Our communities are at risk,” said Senator Ted Cruz, emphasizing the need for stricter enforcement measures.
The White House has yet to present a concrete plan to address this crisis, leaving many Americans frustrated. As the situation deteriorates, calls for accountability continue to grow louder.
Biden’s BORDER Policy SHOCKS Americans: Crime Rates Soar
— President Biden’s border policy has led to a surge in illegal crossings. Many Americans are worried about the rising crime rates linked to this influx. Local communities are feeling the impact, and some residents say they no longer feel safe in their own neighborhoods.
Critics argue that Biden’s approach is too lenient and lacks proper enforcement. They believe this has encouraged more people to cross illegally, putting a strain on resources and law enforcement.
Supporters of stricter border control point out that crime rates have increased in areas with high numbers of illegal immigrants. They call for immediate action to secure the border and protect American citizens from further harm.
The debate over immigration policy continues, but one thing is clear: many Americans are deeply concerned about their safety and the future of their communities under current policies.
Biden’s BORDER Crisis: SHOCKING Numbers Reveal the Truth
— The border crisis under President Biden is getting worse. New data shows a record number of illegal crossings. Many Americans are worried about the impact on our country’s safety and economy.
In August alone, over 200,000 illegal immigrants were caught crossing the southern border. This is a huge increase from previous months. Border Patrol agents are overwhelmed and struggling to keep up with the surge.
Critics say Biden’s policies are to blame for this crisis. They argue that his administration has been too lenient on immigration laws. This has encouraged more people to try and enter the U.S. illegally, putting strain on resources and communities near the border.
Supporters of stricter immigration laws believe that tougher measures are needed now more than ever. They call for stronger enforcement at the border and policies that discourage illegal crossings altogether. The situation remains tense as America watches how this issue will unfold in the coming months under Biden’s leadership.
BIDEN HALTS Leahy LAW: A Risky Move for US-Israel Ties?
— The Biden administration recently paused its plan to apply the Leahy Law to Israel, sidestepping a potential complication for the White House. This decision has sparked intense discussions regarding the future of U.S.-Israel relations. Nick Stewart from the Foundation for Defense of Democracies has voiced strong criticism, labeling it as a politicization of security aid that could set a troubling precedent.
Stewart charged that the administration is overlooking crucial facts and fostering a damaging narrative against Israel. He argued that this stance could empower terrorist organizations by distorting Israeli actions. The public exposure of these issues, along with leaks from the State Department, points to political motives rather than genuine concerns, Stewart suggested.
The Leahy Law bars U.S. funding to foreign military units accused of human rights violations. Stewart called on Congress to scrutinize whether this law is being politically weaponized against allies like Israel during an election season. He stressed that any real concerns should be addressed directly and respectfully with Israeli officials, preserving the alliance’s integrity
By halting application of the Leahy Law specifically towards Israel, questions arise about consistency and fairness in U.S. foreign policy practices, potentially impacting diplomatic trust between these longstanding allies.
MEXICAN Authorities STEP UP: Mass Migrant Transportation Back to Interior Regions
— Social media is buzzing with videos showing Mexican immigration enforcement vehicles, packed with detained migrants, moving towards the border of El Paso, Texas from Juarez. The captured migrants are reportedly being transported back to southern Mexico or other interior areas within the nation. In another video clip, a migrant woman implores Mexican immigration officers to let her continue her journey towards Texas. This scene highlights the intense desperation of those pursuing better prospects in America. Mexican immigration officials have set up internal checkpoints a few miles south of Juarez. These posts are designed to intercept buses carrying migrants northward. This strategy illustrates Mexico’s amplified efforts to control its migrant situation and prevent illegal border crossings into the United States.
Mayorkas PUSHES for High-Immigration, Low-Productivity Economy: Is the American Dream At RISK?
— In a recent discussion with the New York Times, Alejandro Mayorkas, leader of the Department of Homeland Security, argued for an economy that relies heavily on immigration but yields low productivity. He proposed lawful routes for migrants to meet labor demands. This approach, he believes, would eliminate smugglers and provide a structured method for individuals to arrive and work legally.
Yet Mayorkas overlooked one crucial aspect: our immigration system’s primary objective is to protect American families from being displaced by employers resorting to inexpensive foreign labor. Since 2021, his policies have permitted over 6.2 million migrants access into American homes, schools, hospitals and workplaces.
These policies have led to decreased wages for Americans and escalated rents and housing costs. They’ve also amplified societal rifts and forced many native-born Americans out of their professions.
Mayorkas has consistently advocated for a Canadian-style migration system in America that would cater to companies’ labor preferences. However, Canadians are gradually realizing that their migration approach has inflicted substantial harm on their citizens and economy.
Is Biden’s DRONE ATTACK Response Just a ‘Checklist’ Strategy? Waltz Slams Administration
— In an exclusive statement to Breitbart News, Rep. Mike Waltz openly criticized the Biden administration’s handling of a recent drone attack in Jordan. This devastating event led to the loss of three American lives and left 25 others injured. Waltz, who holds positions on several House committees and has a background as a Special Forces commander, voiced his concerns about Biden’s strategy.
Waltz accused the administration of prematurely revealing its intended response to Iran, thus eliminating any potential element of surprise. His comments were in reference to Biden’s announcement on Tuesday where he assured that he does not seek a broader conflict in the Middle East. According to Waltz, simply telling Iran “don’t” is not an effective strategy.
The Florida congressman suggested a three-pronged approach: targeting IRGC operatives instead of just proxies, enforcing sanctions to cut off Iran’s funding sources, and supporting Iranian citizens demanding change. He expressed concern that Biden is merely ticking off boxes with ineffective strikes that target warehouses rather than directly punishing the Iranian regime.
Waltz called for a return to Trump’s policy of maximum pressure on Iran’s economy coupled with robust military action. He reminded readers that under President Trump’s leadership, attacks ceased when Iran-backed terrorists dared kill an American.
TRUMP’S Troubled Past: Biden’s Team Shifts Focus Ahead of 2024 Showdown
— President Joe Biden’s team is adjusting their strategy for the 2024 campaign. Instead of solely spotlighting the incumbent Democrat, they’re turning attention to former President Donald Trump’s contentious record. This move follows recent polls showing Trump leading Biden in seven swing states and gaining traction among younger voters.
Trump, despite grappling with multiple criminal and civil charges, continues to be a GOP favorite. The aim of Biden’s aides is to use his disputed record and legal allegations as a lens through which voters can view the potential consequences of another four-year term under Trump.
Currently, Trump faces four criminal indictments and is embroiled in a civil fraud lawsuit in New York. Regardless of these trials’ outcomes, he could still make a run for office even if convicted — unless legal contests or state ballot requirements prevent him from doing so. However, rather than dwelling on the outcome of Trump’s cases, Biden’s team plans to underscore what another term would mean for American citizens.
A senior campaign aide noted that while Trump may succeed in mobilizing his base with extreme rhetoric, their strategy will highlight how such extremism could negatively affect Americans. The focus will be on the potential adverse impact of another term under Trump rather than his personal legal battles.
TEXAS STRIKES Back: Governor Abbott Signs Tough Laws to Tackle Illegal Immigration
— Texas Governor Greg Abbott has enacted three stringent laws aimed at halting illegal immigration. These laws, passed in two special sessions this fall, are part of a broader strategy to stem the tide of migrants from Mexico. The governor announced on Twitter that unlawful entry into Texas is now a crime with potential penalties including deportation or imprisonment.
The bill signing event in Brownsville saw the attendance of Lieutenant Governor Dan Patrick and National Border Patrol Council President Brandon Judd among other border officials. However, House Speaker Dade Phelan was conspicuously absent. Senate Bill 4 from the fourth special session criminalizes unauthorized entry into Texas from foreign countries.
This state legislation mirrors federal statute Title 8 of the United States Code 1325 but takes it a step further by allowing for sentences up to two decades for violators. It also includes mechanisms for deporting offenders back to their home countries and offers legal protection to local and state officials enforcing these rules. Critics claim that current federal immigration laws are not being sufficiently enforced under the present administration.
With these new measures — including funding for wall construction and harsher penalties for human smuggling — Texas is
ALARMING DHS Revelation: 670,000 Border 'Gotaways’ in FY2023 — The Shocking Truth Behind the Numbers
— Fox News recently uncovered a startling revelation from officials at the Department of Homeland Security (DHS). They disclosed to Arizona’s congressional delegation and House and Senate Judiciary and Homeland Security committees that an astounding 670,000 known “gotaways” slipped through the border in FY2023.
In addition to this alarming figure, lawmakers were made aware of a daily influx of approximately 5,000 illegal immigrants into the U.S. These individuals are handed off to non-governmental organizations (NGOs) that aid them in reaching their final destinations. This rate could equate to nearly 1.8 million illegal migrants entering the country each year.
The DHS report also shed light on a record-breaking number of daily encounters by Border Patrol with migrants — over 12,000 in one day alone. This follows a record-setting year with more than 2.4 million encounters in FY23 and an unprecedented monthly high exceeding 260,000 last September.
When questioned about collaboration efforts with Mexico to control migrant flow at the southern border, DHS officials expressed concern for the “safety and security of noncitizens”. They highlighted risks these individuals often face due to dangerous travel methods like illicit train rides.
IGNORING the Call: BIDEN Snubs GOP’S Plea for Immigration Reform Discussion
— On Thursday, the White House confirmed that President Joe Biden has turned down Republican requests for a meeting to discuss immigration reform. The refusal comes amid a Senate deadlock over a spending deal for Ukraine and Israel aid. The deal is currently on hold due to disagreements over border funding. Numerous Republicans have called on Biden to intervene and help break the impasse.
White House Press Secretary Karine Jean-Pierre defended Biden’s decision, noting that an immigration reform package was introduced on his first day in office. She argued that lawmakers can review this legislation without needing further discussion with the President. Jean-Pierre also highlighted that the administration has already had several discussions with Congress members about this issue.
Despite these justifications, Republican senators held a press conference on Thursday afternoon urging Biden’s involvement in passing national security funding. Senator Lindsey Graham (R-SC) insisted that resolution is impossible without presidential intervention. Jean-Pierre dismissed these calls as “missing the point” and accused Republicans of proposing “extreme” bills.
The standoff continues with both sides firmly holding their ground, leaving crucial aid for Ukraine and Israel in limbo. President Biden’s refusal to engage directly with Republicans over immigration reform could spark more criticism from conservatives who argue he is unwilling to negotiate on key issues.
BLACKBURN BLASTS Biden: The Deterrence Disaster and the Fight to Regain Trust
— Senator Blackburn has recently taken President Biden to task over his approach to national security. She stressed the urgency of an “effective kinetic response” in order to restore deterrence, which she argues has been undermined during Biden’s tenure.
Blackburn highlighted that discontent within the Pentagon stems from the poorly executed withdrawal from Afghanistan. This incident sparked widespread skepticism towards the Biden administration among military ranks.
She further contended that even when faced with alternative strategies, President Biden stubbornly stuck with his flawed plan. He then hailed it as a success, contradicting the military’s evaluation.
In Blackburn’s view, restoring deterrence and executing an effective kinetic response are vital steps towards regaining credibility and trust within our nation’s defense department.
BIDEN-XI Summit: A Bold Leap or a Blunder in US-China Diplomacy?
— President Joe Biden and Chinese President Xi Jinping have committed to keeping direct lines of communication open. This decision follows their lengthy four-hour discussion at the 2023 APEC summit in San Francisco. The leaders unveiled an initial agreement aimed at halting the influx of fentanyl precursors into the U.S. They also plan to restore military communications, which were cut off after China’s disagreement with the Pentagon following Nancy Pelosi’s visit to Taiwan in 2022.
Despite rising tensions, Biden made efforts during Wednesday’s meeting to strengthen U.S.-China relations. He also vowed to persistently challenge Xi on human rights issues, arguing that frank discussions are “critical” for successful diplomacy.
Biden voiced positivity about his rapport with Xi, a relationship that began during their vice-presidential terms. However, uncertainty looms as a congressional investigation into COVID-19 origins threatens US-China relations.
It is unclear whether this renewed dialogue will result in substantial progress or further complications.

BIDEN’S LOW Approval Rating Fuels Reelection Fears
— During an interview, George Stephanopoulos challenged President Biden on his low 36 percent approval rating. “I’ve never seen a president with such a low rating get reelected,” Stephanopoulos remarked.
Biden dismissed the accuracy of the approval rating and expressed confidence in his efforts. “If Trump wins in November, I’ll feel as long as I gave it my all and did the best job I know I could do,” Biden stated.
The president emphasized that the United States is at a critical juncture, suggesting that decisions made now will shape the next several decades. His response has drawn ridicule online, with critics mocking his use of "the best job.
