[Breitbart] Some of President Joe Biden’s poor migrants are turning to prostitution as they try to pay their smuggling debts and daily bills in the high-cost U.S. economy.
“Though she fears getting arrested, Camilla said she turned to sex work [prostitution] through a friend in a desperate bid to earn money while waiting for her work-authorization documents,” Indypendent.org, reported on November 21. The site continued:
Camilla arrived in New York City from Venezuela around a year ago, and lives in a Bronx migrant shelter with her husband and six-year-old son. “I just run away to wherever and hide on another street,” Camilla told The Indypendent. “I wait for the police to leave, then come out again.”
The woman spoke on Roosevelt Avenue, where the New York police have recently tried to shut down an open-air sex market, amid the various shops and restaurants along the avenue.
Her descent into poverty and prostitution may be a shock to Biden’s pro-migration border chief, Alejandro Mayorkas. He has justified his pro-migration policies by saying Americans must respect the dignity of poor migrants.
“We are building an immigration system that is designed to ensure due process, respect human dignity, and promote equity,” Mayorkas tweeted in August 2021, as he sketched out his plans for a mass migration of poor job-seekers into Americans’ homeland.

[PJM] After Hurricane Helene which left untold thousands of western North Carolina (WNC) residents homeless, volunteer Amish carpenters showed up to build temporary shelters, but the heartwarming story has a bitter ending.
There are a couple of stories here that the mainstream media hasn't reported on much. The first is that FEMA, for whatever reason, has not been up to the task after Helen destroyed or damaged approximately 100,000 homes in WNC, impacting more than 200,000 people. People are living in trailers or even tents all these weeks later — and as temperatures drop.
Spoiler: BREAKING
The Amish came to Western NC and built 100+ tiny homes to shelter Helene victims from the cold mountain weather.
Local and state authorities kicked the victims out of their houses, saying they didn't pass code.

Like I said being over 70s, the thought of life in prison doesn't have the same sting as if one was younger. Maybe the only way to get a bureaucrat's attention to the problem. The problem is getting people shelter not paperwork leaving them out in the cold.
#2
Find/identify all of those government bastards/bitches involved. Give them a blanket, transport and shackle them to chain link fences in Boone, NC. It gets cold there. Maybe the moonshiners will leave them some Clorox bottles of moonshine 'juuust' out of reach. Hey, I can dream.
Thanks for the effort, Amish volunteer carpenters. We love you.

It will be interesting to see if DOGE takes action on some of these in the future. Currently, the exposure tends to impact with the strength of a Nerf gun projectile.

Politico is reporting that Democrat AGs are preparing a “raft of legal actions” to prevent President Trump from carrying out mass deportations. Lawsuits challenging the following actions are being prepared as we speak:
- misusing military on domestic soil - attempting to…
…- attempting to commandeer local or state law enforcement to do the job of the federal government
- any attempts to federalize the national guard
- withholding federal funds from states refusing to deport criminals
The buried lead in this article is not just the lawfare. The buried lead is that the media will wage a full scale propoganda war on the American public.
Democrats and the media are ready to go to war to ensure that something 70% of the country supports is stopped.
They are willing to use your tax dollars to tie up the federal government so they can’t deport criminals, Tren de Aragua gang members, potential terrorists and unvetted military aged men all being supported by your tax dollars.
The “champions” of democracy don’t care about who won the election. They are not going to just try to push back against what they perceive to be unconstitutional. Instead they will use lawfare and propaganda to ensure all illegals stay and you foot the bill.
Why? Because illegals will one day become democrat voters. And to them that is more important than your safety and security and prosperity.

"Aiding and abetting foreign invaders" However, the current US Senate does not see the Biden policy this way. I consider the policy amounts to "high crimes and misdemeanors" justifying impeachment of the members of the Executive Branch involved, which includes Biden, Harris and Mayorkas - to start with.

Given the LSD's biggest voter population groups:
* The Voter Plantations,
* Mail-in voters,
* vacant lots,
* 20-year-old registered voter roles,
* and of course the Cemeteries
All have been largely documented and/or circumvented by Voter ID.
I can see how they will be fighting for the 8 million adult illegals.
Given the seriously strong rumor, that BIDEN's Puppet Masters will have him sign an Exec Order in late Dec. 2024, granting amnesty and citizenship to them. Which would give the LSD's time to train them for the 2026 elections on how to vote.
#8
He can't grant citizenship. That is solely the power of Congress in determining the manner of attaining that status.
Speaking of amnesty, just think if on the first days of office Trump offers a mass amnesty to all citizen for any real or alleged crimes that may or may not have been committed by their ancestors which would kill the whole slavery guilt industry.
#9
Kill the use of federal funds to support benefits for illegals and to NGOs that participated in the transport of illegal. Make EVerify mandatory for all employers. Deport any alien that commits a felony regardless of immigration status.

Which is no different than what they've been doing for the past forty years.
#11
Trump's people have already pivoted on releasing all the Jan 6th Political Prisoners. And I'm hearing the same inflection in their tone in regards to illegals. There will be a future redefinition on illegal which will redefine who gets deported. Steel yourself for the disappointment. G-d I hope I am wrong.

^^^^
The Trumpian revolution will aggressively go after criminal gang/cartel illegals, right down to third-tier strap-hanger levels from Day-One. Great optics and promise-keeping.
The resistance media. globalists and demokrats will bombard the airwaves, Facebook, podcasts and Tik-Tok with hyperbolic emoting about the "suffering", non-stop once the initial high-pri deportations are finished. Crying children and grandmothers every news cycle relentlessly covered.
After a year or more and several million worthy mutts have been re-located, the resistance surmises the conservative public itself will tire, will have seen enough emotional trauma to just want it all to go away. Voila, 10 million stay and the national demographics tilt further leftward towards entitlement-for-our-friends solutions.
I think that is what their macro-strategy of unfettered admittance has always been, flood the zone and nobody can put them all back where they came from, the 70% strategy! WASP America slowly ebbs to the hinterlands and 40 urban clusters give New Rome the plebs clamoring for bread and circuses. I wish I was wrong, but age and history seem to argue against my wishes!
[Breitbart] With the early primary polls on her side, Democrat Party insiders say Kamala Harris is thinking seriously about trying again for the presidency in 2028.
"Of course, she’s going to try and run again," someone the Daily Mail describes as a "well-connected Democratic strategist," told the outlet. The strategist added that Kamala’s ambition is only one thing driving this decision.
"Despite some hesitation, Harris has generated a lot of sympathetic reactions from professional Democrats in Washington," reports the Daily Mail. "They describe her campaign as ’near flawless’ but say she struggled to separate herself from President Joe Biden’s record."
"One strategist compared her to the backup quarterback called into win the football game after they were already down in the fourth quarter."
"I think she did the best she could," the strategist said
As I wrote last week, there are pluses and minuses on her side. On the plus side, the Democrat Party bench is pretty weak and Harris did win more reported votes than any presidential candidate in history, except for Joe Biden in 2020 and Donald Trump in 2024.
There is also the fact that we live in a 50/50 country and anyone who wins the nomination has a 50/50 chance of winning the presidency. Kamala already came pretty close.
On the minus side are her anemic political skills. When it comes to anything off-script, Kamala never improved, not even a little bit. Repetition did nothing to elevate her ability to answer questions or deal with an unscripted situation. It was like watching someone throw a football at a cat. No matter how many times you throw a football at a cat, the cat will never get better at catching that football. I’ve never seen a human being incapable of getting better at something through repetition.
Some Democrats seem to understand this...
One Democratic communicator said that her rapid rise from a district attorney to the Senate and Vice President of the United States was partially to blame for her struggles as a candidate.
’This is someone who had a meteoric rise, her Achilles heel has been not having her own political identity, it created this blanket of caution that really f***d her up,’ he said.
For Harris to win again she would need to finally define herself outside of her own ambition and put to rest questions about what she really believed in.

[FoxNews] Rep. Darrell Issa, R-Calif., demanded Blinken reveal how much the sessions cost the State Department
Rep. Darrell Issa, R-Calif., took aim at Secretary of State Antony Blinken after it was reported that the State Department held therapy sessions for employees who were upset by President-elect Trump’s election victory.
"I am concerned that the Department is catering to federal employees who are personally devastated by the normal functioning of American democracy through the provision of government-funded mental health counseling because Kamala Harris was not elected President of the United States," Issa said in a letter to Blinken last week.
The letter comes after a Free Beacon report earlier this month that detailed two alleged therapy sessions that were held at the State Department after Trump’s victory, with sources telling the outlet that one such instance amounted to an information "cry session."
In his letter to Blinken, Issa argued that the reported sessions were "disturbing" and that "nonpartisan government officials" should not be suffering a "personal meltdown over the result of a free and fair election."
While the Republican lawmaker acknowledged that the mental health of the agency’s employees was important, he questioned the use of taxpayer dollars to counsel those upset about the election, demanding answers on how many sessions have been conducted, how many more are planned, and how much the sessions are costing the department.
Issa also raised fears that the sessions could also call into question the willingness of some of the State Department's employees to carry out Trump’s new vision for the agency.
"The mere fact that the Department is hosting these sessions raises significant questions about the willingness of its personnel to implement the lawful policy priorities that the American people elected President Trump to pursue and implement," the letter said. "The Trump Administration has a mandate for wholesale change in the foreign policy arena, and if foreign service officers cannot follow through on the American people’s preferences, they should resign and seek a political appointment in the next Democrat administration."
The State Department did not immediately respond to a Fox News Digital request for comment.

[FoxNews] 'The scope of this sanctioning authority is unprecedented,' the lawsuit states
A Biden administration executive order that allows the U.S. to sanction American Jews living in the West Bank prompted a group of Israelis to file suit against the lame-duck administration, challenging the constitutionality of the first of its kind sanction regime.
Following the Oct. 7 terrorist attack on Israel, President Biden signed an executive order (EO) in February, imposing sanctions on "persons undermining peace, security, and stability in the West Bank." As a result, the sanctioned individuals have had their bank accounts frozen, credit cards canceled and faced an inability to conduct basic life activities. Critics say the move allows the administration to sanction Jews in Israel who disagree with the administration’s policies, which they believe to be a violation of the constitutional rights of U.S. citizens in Israel and their supporters in America.
Biden said, in announcing the EO, that "the situation in the West Bank-in particular high levels of extremist settler violence, forced displacement of people and villages, and property destruction-has reached intolerable levels and constitutes a serious threat to the peace, security, and stability of the West Bank and Gaza, Israel, and the broader Middle East region."
In response, the American Christian nonprofit, Texans for Israel, and several American Jews living in Israel filed a lawsuit in federal court in August, challenging the EO on the grounds that it was a violation of their free speech rights, as well as their rights to due-process and equal-protection under the law.
"The scope of this sanctioning authority is unprecedented, as it targets beliefs held by many, if not most Americans," the lawsuit states.
Eugene Kontorovich, a professor at George Mason University Law School, who is a member of the legal team challenging the sanctions in federal court, told Fox News Digital that sanctions like those detailed in the lawsuit have been leveraged as a way to silence policy disagreements.
"The shocking thing is, after October 7, in February, while Israel has been in a war for its survival against an Iranian axis of multiple countries, the Biden administration took this time to implement a new and unprecedented sanctions regime targeted at Israelis and their supporters in America," because they simply don't agree with the administration's foreign policy, Kontorovich said.
If the Biden administration is permitted to enforce such sanctions, Kontorovich also said it could lead to retaliatory behavior from a different administration down the line.
"The Executive Order, if you read it carefully, says people who ‘destabilize’ the West Bank, and they're basically saying that the viewpoints that they have are bad for the West Bank... through vague and tenuous connections," Kontorovich said to Fox News Digital.
"They happen to have the power now, but obviously, if this is allowed, then it can be used both ways and that's why it's important to uphold constitutional rights in a neutral and fair way," he said.
In addition, the EO also stipulates anyone who engages in "violence" or "threat of violence" in the West Bank can be sanctioned, but Kontorovich argues that "violence" is defined by anti-Israel groups and can be applied to Jews who defend themselves in the face of a violent Palestinian attacker in an "arbitrary" way.
The U.S. government has relied upon data from the website of the United Nations Office for the Coordination of Humanitarian Affairs (OCHA), categorizing acts of self-defense by Jews and anti-terror operations by the Israel Defense Forces as settler violence, according to the lawsuit.
"At the same time, there is no evidence of any independent fact-finding or analysis by the USSC [United States Security Coordinator] or any other U.S. actor or independent investigator; instead, the USSC claims appear to echo statements and figures from highly politicized and biased organizations such as OCHA, discussed previously, and the far-left Israeli NGO B’Tselem," the lawsuit states.
"An examination of OCHA’s and B’Tselem’s reports reveals that there was not a consistent fact-finding methodology behind the data presented. Moreover, it shows several deceptive methods for inflating the data," the lawsuit adds. "These reports are tendentious, inaccurate, and inflammatory and should not form the basis of United States policy."
For example, after a Palestinian was shot dead after breaking on to a Jewish farm in the northern West Bank armed with a knife and explosives, the UN labeled him a victim of "settler violence."
Kontorovich said the EO focuses on talking points about the oft-repeated idea of the "epidemic of settler violence" in the West Bank, using "neutral" words indicating it targets anybody in the West Bank, not just Jews. He said this is misleading because "it has only been applied against Jewish individuals in a way that's clearly discriminatory." Notably, penalties have not been imposed on non-Jewish U.S. citizens in the West Bank who act in self-defense, the lawsuit states.
Kontorovich said to Fox News Digital that the sanctions have even targeted individuals outside the West Bank. Tzav 9, for example, is a group that protests in Israel against aid to Hamas in Gaza, which Kontorovich said demonstrates that the connection to the West Bank and Gaza does not have to be direct. The Biden administration froze the bank accounts of Reut Ben Haim, a mother of eight who lives in Israel, under the EO simply because she is an organizer of the 15,000-person grassroots movement.
Tzav 9’s members include hostage families and the bereaved families of soldiers, who have categorically denounced violence, but the group has been categorized as a "violent extremist Israeli group," by the State Department, which announced sanctions against the group on June 14. Notably, on June 10, U.S.-based human rights group, Democracy for the Arab World Now (DAWN), called on the State Department to sanction Tzav 9.
Shortly after being sanctioned, Reut’s bank account, including her small business account in Israel, was frozen. The administration's sanctions have also had a significant and detrimental effect on Reut's husband, Yosef Ben Chaim, who is a dual U.S.–Israeli citizen, according to the lawsuit. Since his wife's sanctioning, he has been unable to finance basic, day-to-day essentials, including food, education, medicine, hygiene products, mortgage payments and other daily expenses.
"He is an American citizen, so this is a violation of their First Amendment rights, violation of their due process rights and it's a violation of the equal protection, because this is really being done in a way that clearly targets Jews," Kontorovich said to Fox News Digital.
The Biden administration appears to be doubling down on its approach. The Department of the Treasury’s Office of Foreign Assets Control (OFAC) announced a new round of sanctions on Monday. Additionally, last week, 88 congressional Democrats wrote a letter demanding that the Biden administration sanction Israeli government members and an Israeli NGO that reports on illegal Palestinian activities' destruction.
"The sanctions announced this week abandon even the pretext of requiring acts of violence - this created a clear chill on pro-Israel activism in the U.S., because one cannot know what partners in Israel will be sanctioned next," Kontorovich said.
He said the sanctions regime, which has been sparsely covered by the media, is an indication that the press is uninterested in stories critical of the administration.
"This is going to be a case which is going to proceed in the federal courts, and we hope that they will say the administration cannot use foreign sanctions in a way that essentially makes dissent on foreign policy impermissible," Kontorovich said.
Fox News Digital reached out to the White House for comment.
