More surprising progress. New York City may be waking from its long migrant-fueld nightmare. Yesterday, the UK Daily Mail ran a story headlined, “NYC to stop giving migrants FREE pre-paid cards worth $18,500 a year.” It seems so simple: Cut off the magnets, and the migrants will be pulled elsewhere.




The Daily Mail did not connect this dot, but I wonder how much New York’s newfound budgetary wisdom has to do with its rational expectation the Trump Administration will soon cut off the federal money spigot.

Plus, Mayor Adams has at times shown sparks of resistance to the Biden migrant scheme, and is under DOJ investigation. Maybe Mayor Adams’s legal problems may soon get some much-needed clarity.

In another exciting development, yesterday the Daily Mail ran another terrific immigration story headlined, “Judge slashes Biden administration policy for undocumented immigrants.”

Yesterday, a U.S. District Court in Texas struck down one of Biden’s most liberal immigration schemes. The so-called 'Keeping Families Together' program allowed illegal spouses and stepchildren of U.S. citizens to apply for a green card without first having to leave the country, creating a greased naturalization skid.

But federal judge Campbell Barker, a Trump appointee, ruled yesterday that the Biden Administration overstepped its authority and stretched the legal interpretation of relevant immigration law “past its breaking point.” No dice.

Progress.

It's fentanyl, not fentynol. And is unnecessary and even harms the message. She's getting deported not because she's some kind of criminal on top of violating immigration laws.

PS. Again, who writes this shit?

Yesterday, Fox ran a great story headlined, “Trump to appoint former ICE Director Tom Homan as next ‘border czar’: ‘nobody better at policing our borders’.” The Hindustan Times’ headline even included the warning, “pack your bags, everyone.”

A former police officer and INS agent, Homan was Trump’s ICE Director in 2017 and 2018. Before that, in 2013, he served as Obama’s Executive Associate Director of ICE Enforcement and Removal Operations. Corporate media calls Homan a “hard liner” because of his strict immigration enforcement policies, including his controversial "zero tolerance" policy that media hysterically claimed “separated families.”

At the National Conservatism Conference in Washington earlier this year, Homan was quoted as follows: “you’ve got my word. Trump comes back in January, I’ll be in his heels coming back, and I will run the biggest deportation operation this country’s ever seen.” Huzzah.

President Trump announced the pick late last night, and hysterically trolled corporate media by calling Homan the “Border Czar,” the same label that media fruitlessly and falsely claimed was never given to VP Harris...
