This week, we are seeing DC operate under a façade of panic and urgency to pass mass amounts of foreign aid, roughly $95 billion worth, and at the same time grandstand about securing the border. It’s true the House may vote on a border bill, but the whole situation is a sham. You can see...
Hypocrisy runs deep in D.C., especially when it comes to the border. Today during a Congressional budget hearing, we got to witness yet another example of leftist hypocrisy when Democratic Congresswoman Lauren Underwood of Illinois talked about migrants going to sanctuary cities. Her issue was not the influx of migrants due to our open southern...
Berta Gisela Gaitan, who was running mayor of the municipality of Celaya in Mexico, was gunned down on Monday at a political rally. Hers was the third such assassination of a political candidate in recent weeks. Her brazen murder indisputably refutes many of Mexican President Andrés Manuel López Obrador’s claims in a recent “60 Minutes”...
The No. 1 issue in America today is the crisis at the border with some 10 million illegal immigrants crossing into the nation since President Joe Biden reversed President Donald Trump’s border security policies on day one. In a speech that ran 67 minutes, a little short by modern standards and six minutes shorter than his speech last year,...
The New York Post reports that on Super Tuesday, MSNBC’s progressive women’s roundtable got a big laugh out of exit polls showing that illegal immigration was the top priority for GOP voters in Virginia. Former Biden spokeswoman Jen Psaki laughingly insisted that she lives in Virginia and there’s no problem. Joy Reid called the poll...
The current president and the once, and likely future president visited the U.S.-Mexico border today — but they said and saw very different things. President Joe Biden visited Brownsville, Texas near the Gulf Coast on Feb. 29, which is oddly appropriate, as Biden’s correct policy prescriptions are about as rare as leap days, a day...
The following commentary is published on Thursdays as part of TPPF’s subscriber-only newsletter The Post. If you would like to subscribe to The Post, click here. For at least the third time in the last two decades, Congress attempted to pass an immigration and border security-related reform. And for the third straight time, the bill failed...
When the Rev. Al Sharpton used the word “invasion” to describe the onslaught of migrants at the southern U.S. border on Monday, his MSNBC guest suddenly stopped nodding along. And then the fast blinking began — he was triggered. Because to the American left, the word “invasion” is off-limits and even “violence-inciting.” But the word — and...
By now you’ve probably read about the disastrous Senate bill released in a late Sunday news dump. Unfortunately, while the American people beg the nation’s leaders to take responsibility for border security, the Senate has instead released 370 pages of lawless insanity. What’s even more infuriating after reading this pointless bill is knowing that the...
On Dec. 28, the White House issued a joint communiqué with Mexico that created some tension when the American version identified “democratic decline” as one of the root causes of heavy and irregular migration flows at the border. When Mexico’s version excluded that phrase, it was immediately removed from the White House statement to align with the...
Democrats have no moral high-ground on the issue. The worst tragedies are the preventable ones. Last week, a mother and two children drowned in the treacherous Rio Grande near Eagle Pass, attempting to cross into the U.S. illegally. The Biden administration was quick to blame the state of Texas, but the facts are clear: Biden...
Pierre Lucard Emile, an illegal alien from Haiti, raped and beat a developmentally disabled person in Boston, according to prosecutors. Emile arrived at the port of entry in Brownsville, Texas “where he was deemed inadmissible and issued a notice to appear,” according to ICE. In 2023, Peruvian national Emilio Vasquez-Santamaria was charged with murder after being arrested...
