California Wanted More Illegals, Now Border Patrol Will Grant Their Wish Three Times a Week

Democrats in California wanted more illegal immigrants, so Border Patrol will grant their wish by flying hundreds of illegal immigrants to the Golden State.

California has been notoriously permissive toward illegal immigration, with multiple sanctuary cities refusing to cooperate with immigration law enforcement officials.

And last year, a California Democrat introduced legislation that would have given government-funded healthcare to illegal immigrants, according to the Los Angeles Times.

Fortunately, the legislation didn’t pass, but it’s an example of California Democrats practically daring illegal immigrants to live there.

And it looks like California will get its wish.

“The U.S. Border Patrol said Friday that it would fly hundreds of migrant families from south Texas to San Diego for processing,” the Associated Press reported.

The flights will continue indefinitely three times a week, and each flight will contain 120 to 135 illegal immigrants, according to Douglas Harrison, the Border Patrol’s interim San Diego sector chief.

“We don’t have an end date,” Harrison said. “This is a contingency operation. We’ve got to give the people in Rio Grande Valley some relief.”

Is it time to build a border wall?

Democrats insist there isn’t an immigration crisis at the southern border, but local border communities have seen an unprecedented surge in illegal immigration, and they can’t keep up.

The huge influx in illegal immigration resulted in Douglas Nicholls, the mayor of Yuma, Arizona, declaring a state of emergency last month.

“Today I proclaimed a local emergency in Yuma, due to the migrant family releases overwhelming the local shelter system,” Nicholls said.

The mayor also warned about mobs of migrants “roaming the streets looking to satisfy basic human needs” because local shelters are unable to adequately care for them.

It’s a similar story for local border communities in Texas, which is why Border Patrol has resorted to flying illegal immigrants to California.

But even San Diego, where the flights land, will struggle with the influx of illegal immigrants.

“The flights could further strain the San Diego Rapid Response Network, a coalition of religious and civic groups that has provided temporary shelter to asylum-seeking families since large-scale releases began in October,” the AP reported.

Keep in mind that all of this struggle could have been avoided if there was a proper border wall, which Democrats continue to oppose.

But the California city shouldn’t have an issue with the surge of illegal immigrants because it’s exactly what they wanted. After all, San Diego is a sanctuary city.

Crooked DNC Turns on Bernie After Forcing Him To Sign Loyalty Pledge

Crooked DNC Turns on Bernie After Forcing Him To Sign Loyalty Pledge

After the Democratic National Committee urged Vermont independent Sen. Bernie Sanders to sign a loyalty pledge, the DNC appears to have turned on him by hiring a finance chair who has voiced staunch anti-Sanders sentiments in the past.

The DNC urged Sanders and other candidates to sign a loyalty pledge earlier this year, fearing that some presidential hopefuls might go rogue and run as third-party candidates.

The pledge serves as affirmation that a candidate is “a member of the Democratic Party; will accept the Democrat nomination; and will run and serve as a member of the Democratic Party,” according to NPR.

“It’s an issue that arose during Sanders’ first presidential run, with concerns among some Democrats that the longtime independent and self-described democratic socialist, might run as a third-party candidate after losing the nomination to Hillary Clinton,” NPR noted.

In 2016, the DNC’s neutrality was called into question after leaked emails seemed to suggest that several DNC staffers did not want Sanders to win the nomination.

And the DNC’s neutrality has now been called into question once again, though unlike last time, the loyalty pledge Sanders signed would seem to eliminate the possibility of him retaliating against the Democrat establishment if he fails to win the nomination.

The DNC’s recently hired finance chair, Chris Korge, is a Florida lobbyist who has a history of harshly criticizing Sanders, according to HuffPost.

In December, Korge retweeted a message calling Sanders “dangerous to the future of the Democratic Party.”

“The only Bern the middle class will feel from Bernie is the pain from all the tax increases,” Korge wrote on Twitter in March 2016.

And Korge has already donated $2,700 to the presidential campaign of one of Sanders’ opponents in the Democrat primary, California Sen. Kamala Harris.

Korge, for his part, insists that he’s not biased against Sanders.

Should Sanders supporters leave the Democratic Party?

“I have worked tirelessly to help the Democratic Party, and have been proud to support a wide array of Democratic candidates,” Korge said in a statement, HuffPost reported.

RELATED: How Did Dems Punish Rep. Tlaib’s Disturbing Holocaust Comment? They Let Her Preside Over the House

“I’m fully committed to the DNC’s neutrality policy and I look forward to raising the funds necessary to help whoever our Democratic nominee is.”

But liberal activists are skeptical of Korge’s promise to stay neutral — and rightfully so.

“The nomination of Chris to be finance chair is concerning,” DNC member and 2016 Sanders campaign supporter Larry Cohen told HuffPost. “Before the election, I’m sure that we will profess total neutrality in terms of the nominating process and in some ways walk back the comments he’s made about Bernie Sanders.”

Now let me make one thing very clear: I don’t want to defend Sanders. After all, he’s a socialist with some very dangerous policy proposals, and if he ever becomes president, America is in trouble.

That being said, the Democrat establishment has consistently proven itself to be untrustworthy, biased and corrupt.

This is not how the DNC should treat one of its most popular candidates after urging him sign a loyalty pledge.

If I were a Sanders supporter (and again, I’m the furthest things from one), I would be absolutely furious at the crooked Democrat establishment.

Snapchat’s New Gender-Swap Filter Is Causing Problems For Social Justice Warriors

Snapchat’s new gender-swap feature has taken over the Internet, with users marveling over how the app transforms them into a member of the opposite sex. But social justice warriors concerned about the plight of actual gender-swappers are firing back, accusing Snapchat both of minimizing what its like to transition and of buying into the notion of the “gender binary.”

A number of transgender individuals have complained to major news outlets, like the New York Post and the Guardian, about how the Snapchat filters turns transitioning gender into a game, and how the app “appropriates” gender transition and turns it into a game.

“My gender’s not a costume,” one transgender individual told the Post. “This story that I feel is very real. I lost a lot to be who I am, and I fought really hard for the body that I’m in.

“And when certain people post it and write about how silly it is and how goofy they look with this filter,” the person told the paper, “it makes light of the transgender experience.”

The application isn’t meant to be a serious exploration into the notions of gender and the gender binary. It’s meant to be a fun, silly way for Snapchat users to modify their self-portraits for posting. But there are some things that, to social justice warriors, just aren’t funny.

“Experimenting with identity is fun, which is why the filter is so popular — but what’s fun for some, is a punishing reality for others. Many from the LGBTQ+ community have been quick to point out that Snapchat’s filter not only strictly adheres to the gender binary, but also many users’ insouciant attitudes towards gender play hardly translate in real life,” noted one writer on TheNextWeb.

One “non-binary” speaker told VICE media, “There’s a fine line between encouraging people to take gender less seriously and not considering trans realities or carelessly perpetuating misunderstanding about trans identities.”

It’s also not just an insult to transgender individuals to change your appearance in a single selfie, it’s also a sin against progressive notions of gender — largely that there are more than 37 genders (at last count) and that allowing users to “swap” themselves between male and female is simply unfair to those who believe that they fit somewhere in between, or on a different spectrum altogether.

“These new Snapchat filters got y’all out here having fun with gender roles, joking about sex with your homeboys, and sporting beards with lashes. All we ask is that you keep that same energy when you interact with actual transgender and non-binary ppl. Thanks, management,” wrote a critic on Twitter.

“oh so if queer people play around with gender, it’s called “unnatural” and “gross,” but if cishet people do it, it’s called a snapchat filter? okay then,” wrote another.

Snapchat isn’t the first social media platform to offer a “gender-swap” feature, and it certainly isn’t the first time Snapchat has run afoul of social justice warriors. A previous “Bob Marley” filter that gave users dreadlocks like the famous Rasta musician got Snapchat accuse of permitting “blackface” on their network. An “Asian” filter that gave users traditional Asian features was criticized as racially insensitive and culturally appropriative.

For its part, though, Snapchat says it’s not removing the filter, which is meant to be temporary anyway.

“We understand that identity is deeply personal,” the company said in a statement to the Post. “As we have and continue to explore the possibilities of this technology, our Lens design team is working … to ensure that on the whole these Lenses are diverse and inclusive by providing a wide range of transformative effects.”

PARTY BREAK: Louisiana Abortion Bill Poised To Be Signed By Democrat Governor

Making a major break with his party’s extreme stance on abortion, a Democratic governor has signaled his support for pro-life “heartbeat” legislation, which would ban abortions after the unborn baby’s heartbeat is detected (around six-weeks gestation).

Louisiana Gov. John Bel Edwards identifies as a rare pro-life Democrat, and apparently has personal ties to the issue.

“When I ran for governor, I said I was pro-life and so that’s something that’s consistent,” he said when asked about heartbeat legislation making its way to his desk, reported Fox News.

“My position hasn’t changed. In eight years in the Legislature, I was a pro-life legislator,” Edwards said. According to Fox News, the Democrat says his faith directs him in supporting life, but that he also holds “personal significance” to the cause: “Nearly three decades ago, he and his wife decided to have his daughter, diagnosed as a baby with spina bifida, against the doctor’s advice to abort.”

“I know that for many in the national party, on the national scene, that’s not a good fit. But I will tell you, here in Louisiana, I speak and meet with Democrats who are pro-life every single day,” Edwards noted during his monthly radio show.

The governor’s position is far from his Democratic counterparts. For example, in January, New York Gov. Andrew Cuomo celebrated a bill permitting abortion up to the moment of birth in the state for essentially any reason.

That same month, Virginia Gov. Ralph Northam endorsed abortion-til-birth and infanticide during a radio interview.

“When we talk about third-trimester abortions, these are done with the consent of the mother, with the consent of physicians, more than one physician by the way, and it’s done in cases where there may be severe deformities, there may be a fetus which is non-viable. So in this particular example, if the mother is in labor, I can tell you exactly what would happen, the infant would be delivered, the infant would be kept comfortable, the infant would be resuscitated if this is what the mother and the family desired, and then a discussion would ensue between the physician and the mother,” Northam said.

And during the 2016 presidential election, the party’s nominee, Hillary Clinton, supported abortion up until the moment of birth without restriction and said she’d work to end the Hyde Amendment, which currently stops the federal government (your tax dollars) from funding abortion.

“I will always defend Planned Parenthood. And I will say consistently and proudly: Planned Parenthood should be funded, supported, and appreciated; not undermined, misrepresented, and demonized. I believe we need to protect access to safe and legal abortion, not just in principal but in practice,” Mrs. Clinton said in 2016.

Conservative legislators have been teeing-up a showdown at the Supreme Court with a slew of pro-life legislation in the past few months. The Alabama Human Life Protection Act, signed into law on Wednesday by Republican Gov. Kay Ivey, serves as the nation’s strictest anti-abortion law. The law totally outlaws abortion, save an exemption for the life of the mother, and targets third-party abortionists with life in prison for carrying out illegal procedures.

MUST READ: Mueller’s Reprehensible Ultimatum to General Flynn: Your Son or Your Country? Make Your Decision!

Guest post by Joe Hoft

General Flynn was given an ultimatum by the corrupt Mueller team – choose either your son or your country!  This grotesque abuse of power and the legal system by the Mueller gang should never have happened and should not go unpunished!

General Flynn worked for the Obama Administration but at some point was fired by Obama for apparently disagreeing with his policies and actions and speaking out against his failed policies in Iraq and Syria.  Soon after, then candidate Trump ran for office and General Flynn supported the future President and introduced the candidate at rallies and then was offered a position on the Trump team.

Obama was upset with Flynn for supporting Trump and it appears that he had some sort of vendetta with Flynn for his comments on the growing threat of ISIS.  It’s also suspected that after Flynn parted ways with President Obama he was set up at a dinner with Russians where he was seated next to Russian President Putin in December 2015.

The American spy in England used often by the Deep State, Stefan Halper, seated Flynn next to Putin and then it is suspected used this information as an informant for the Obama administration to obtain a FISA warrant to spy on General Flynn.

Additional information on the framing of General Flynn was reported from a woman who said she was used as a Russian against the General –

Svetlana Lokhova, the Russian historian at the center of Michael Flynn investigation for ‘alleged contacts with Russians’, told Fox News in an exclusive interview with Catherine Herridge, that she is not a Russian spy and that she thought “there’s a high chance that is was coordinated, and believe it needs to be properly investigated.”

In 2017, American various media outlets framed her as a Russian operative and linked her to Michael Flynn. The allegations involved her contact with Flynn three years prior at a 2014 dinner at the University of Cambridge, England, when Flynn was Defense Intelligence Agency director.

General Flynn’s actions had nothing to do with collusion with Russia.  He was set up and spied on!

In October 2016, shortly before the election, based on a bogus and fake dossier financed by the Hillary Clinton campaign and the DNC, Obama’s gang of corrupt Intel Heads filed for and eventually obtained a warrant to spy on fellow Americans.  The warrants were fraudulent due to their source and made up content.

Obama spied on the Trump team as well as President Trump’s leadership team, including General Michael Flynn for some time.  (When and for how long is still unknown.  Many suspect this is why Flynn was targeted by the Mueller gang – because Flynn was spied on illegally by the Obama Deep State for some time before the 2016 election most likely based on the phony reports that Flynn was working with Russians.  By indicting General Flynn the Deep State could say – see he was a Russian sympathizer and therefore their illegal spying was justified.)

General Flynn was participating in Trump rallies throughout the US and he also became an advisor for the campaign. At this same time the Obama administration was in full force beginning their efforts to frame candidate Trump as a compatriot with Russia to steal the election.  One way they did this was to set up Flynn with the Russians.

After Trump eventually won the election, the Deep State that represented and supported Obama was in a panic.  They feared that if Flynn looked into efforts to spy on the Trump campaign, they would be found guilty of their many illegal actions in spying on the incoming President, the opposition party and many others.

When President-elect Trump met with President Obama for the first time, Obama even recommended that the future President not select Flynn to be on the Trump administration team.  It’s suspected that Obama didn’t want Flynn on Trump’s team because Obama feared Flynn would uncover the illegal spying that the Obama team carried out during the 2016 campaign and before.

So the same FBI investigator who led the Hillary Clinton email investigation –
– The same individual who led the Hillary interview and neglected to take notes, put her under oath or record the meeting
– The same individual who assisted in drafting the memo months before the Hillary was interviewed  that was presented by corrupt FBI Director Comey to explain why the FBI was not pressing charges against Hillary
– The same individual who lead the Russia – Trump investigation
– The same individual who neglected to do anything when presented with information that China was hacking Hillary’s emails real-time
– The same individual who personally reviewed over 300,000 Hillary emails found on perp Anthony Weiner’s computer a week before the 2016 election
– The same individual that said all of Weiner’s emails were reviewed in less than a week and no criminally related information was found
– This individual, Peter Strzok, went to the White House a couple days after President Trump’s inauguration and entrapped General Flynn, President Trump’s National Security Advisor, in discussions related to Russia.

Corrupt Strzok asked Flynn questions related to a call Flynn made to a Russian official before the inauguration – totally legal.  The rumor is that the FBI Agent with Strzok, Joe Pientka, said Flynn never lied.  Strzok and Pientka asked Flynn questions, did not tell him he was under investigation, did not read him his rights, did not allow him to have an attorney and then lied about what was said.  The location of the FBI’s original Form 302 recording this discussion is unknown.

After this meeting a few days later, then acting AG Sally Yates, an Obama holdover, went over to the White House and stated that General Flynn had lied to the FBI.  Eventually General Flynn resigned from his position at the White House on February 13, 2017.

A few months passed and then the corrupt Mueller investigation started.  Mueller’s first target was General Flynn.  Mueller had nothing on Flynn so he and his goons went after Flynn’s son, Michael Flynn, Jr.  Micheal Jr had a brand new baby and was grilled by the Mueller team.  Eventually, they used the General’s family against him.  It’s believed that the General could plea guilty to a bogus charge of lying to the FBI or he could watch Mueller’s goons put his son in prison for some bogus crime.

“Make a decision, either your country or your son?”

Mueller’s goons put the General in the worst position possible.  He chose his son.  The goons then placed the General under a gag order while the media persecuted him for months for a false crime, unrelated to Russia collusion.  They paraded him as a criminal.

The judge overseeing the case who took Flynn’s plea was a friend of corrupt cop Strzok and was also a FISA Court judge.  He was recused from the sentencing but to this day we don’t know why.  They never told Flynn that he was being spied on for months before the election.

The Mueller team and the Deep State and the Democrats didn’t stop with the General, they went after others including the President’s eldest son, Don Jr.

There are so many questions yet unanswered.  One question is why did Obama’s Deep State not tell the President that General Flynn was under investigation during his campaign?  Who made this decision?  This would have been the proper thing to do.  Were they afraid that illegitimate spying by the Obama team would be uncovered?

 

General Flynn is a patriot.  He never should have been put in this situation.  He was illegally set up and lied to.  He was forced to choose between his family or his country.  General Flynn chose his family.  What would you have done?

Please donate to the Michael T. Flynn Legal Defense Fund.  This ordeal has cost him and his family millions.
