Democrat’s America: No photo, no one act, better describes what Democrats have done to America than the lead article below.
Biden and the Democrats have abused the system for some perverted political gain. Our children and grandchildren (and probably generations to come) will be dealing with the chaos, debt, crime, and destruction of our civilization as we know it because of the Democrat’s open border policy.
I get the fact that they want to get re-elected and control the levers of power. But this abuse, from open borders to ANTIFA to Soros’ prosecutors are causing irreparable harm to our country.
Mainstream Democrats, Republicans, and Independents need to wake up and help take back our country. Elections have consequences and this November’s elections couldn’t be more important.
Today’s liberal/progressive Democrats who control their party want to destroy America as we know it. Don’t ignore the obvious. Don’t ignore what they say. Don’t ignore who they empower.
This is a dangerous situation and only America’s voters can fix this!
Vote as if future is on the line for your country and the generations to come.
Reminder – How the Left Plays: Read the article below…it’s chilling how many helped “rig” the election.
“That’s why the participants want the secret history of the 2020 election told, even though it sounds like a paranoid fever dream–a well-funded cabal of powerful people, ranging across industries and ideologies, working together behind the scenes to influence perceptions, change rules and laws, steer media coverage and control the flow of information. They were not rigging the election; they were fortifying it. And they believe the public needs to understand the system’s fragility in order to ensure that democracy in America endures.”

‘BIDEN’S AMERICA IN ONE PHOTO’: Illegal Immigrant Who Attacked NYPD Cop Walks Free, Flips Middle Fingers
Democrat’s America…
22-year-old Jhoan Boada, the illegal immigrant who participated in a mob attack on a New York City police officer this week, has been released without bail. Boada flipped off photographers upon his release.
Boada and several other illegal immigrants attacked an NYPD officer and lieutenant just steps from the New Amsterdam theater.
Former Trump adviser Stephen Miller shared the photograph on X, saying “Joe Biden’s America in one photograph. Our national humiliation is endless.”
Biden’s re-election year crisis can be described in 4 words: It’s the border, stupid
James Carville’s famous advice to candidates deserves a rest.
“It’s the economy, stupid” should step aside because this year, “It’s the border, stupid.”
The estimated 6 million people who have crossed from Mexico illegally during Joe Biden’s tenure are overwhelming American cities and are the largest single threat to his re-election.
The massive influx is sparking the border showdown between the White House and Texas, with Gov. Greg Abbott using the National Guard to do what Biden refuses to do.
Namely, prevent illegal immigrants from entering the United States.
Biden’s policies “have caused an unprecedented invasion that we must defend against,” the Republican governor said last week.
His state installed more than 100 miles of razor wire to keep illegal crossers from entering Texas.
The Supreme Court said the feds could remove the wire, but Abbott continues to add more and so far the White House is avoiding a physical confrontation.
Reflecting the importance of the issue, GOP governors from 25 states are backing Abbott and many are offering to send their National Guard units to help Texas.
The election-year crisis marks the inevitable boiling point of a problem that has simmered for three years.
No Such Thing as a Free Lunch: The Cost of Unchecked Illegal Immigration on Americans
“There’s no such thing as a free lunch” used to be American folk wisdom (and inspired a book by economist Milton Friedman). The greatest trick the American Left has played on young people is to convince them that free stuff is actually free. In fact, tax credits, student debt “relief,” COVID-19 stimulus, rent control, and other giveaways simply redistribute existing wealth or borrow money that must be repaid by taxpayers.
Relative to illegal immigration, it doesn’t matter how much you put aside for a rainy day if the rain never stops. Biden’s policies have locked in an unlimited flow of illegal immigration at the border. Many of those coming now have no U.S. relatives or employment waiting for them. They will continue to head for “sanctuary” megacities that offer free housing and benefits. Local authorities there seem to only now begin to understand the scale of demand with which they are dealing. Our open borders have resulted in housing shortages, closed schools, commandeered public spaces, and hospitals catering to patients no one voted to admit into the country while everyday taxpaying Americans wait in line.
It’s not as if all Americans are rich and can absorb the costs of paying for these people who aren’t paying for themselves—particularly in the places where illegal aliens are amassing.
64 Times the Biden Administration Intentionally Undermined Border Security
Last week, in a weak attempt to shift blame for a crisis their own policies created, the White House clumsily tried claim that House Republicans had an “anti-border security record” by voting to “eliminate over 2,000 border patrol agents and erode our capacity to seize fentanyl.”
These claims were demonstrably untrue, previously disproven, and underscored the Biden Administration’s failure to secure our southern border, marked by record high crossings in December and widespread national recognition that the situation at our border is a crisis.
“Since his first day in office, President Biden and his administration have worked to systematically undermine America’s border security,” Speaker Johnson said. “On more than 60 occasions, he has manipulated the federal bureaucracy to open our borders to illegal immigrants, human trafficking, fentanyl, and potential terrorists. The result is a humanitarian and national security catastrophe. The President must use his executive authority to repair what he has broken. I am calling on him to do so. “

Biden trails Trump in seven key swing states — six of which he won in 2020: poll
President Biden trails Republican front-runner Donald Trump in all seven key swing states in a hypothetical head-to-head 2024 matchup, according to a new survey out Wednesday.
The Bloomberg News/ Morning Consult poll shows Trump leading Biden in Arizona (47%-44%), Georgia (49%-41%), Michigan (47%-42%), Nevada (48%-40%), North Carolina (49%-39%), Pennsylvania (48%-45%) and Wisconsin (49%-44%).
Biden, 81, won six of those seven states over Trump, 77, in the 2020 election — only losing North Carolina.
If the poll results hold on Nov. 5 and the remaining 43 states and the District of Columbia vote the same way they did four years ago, Trump would defeat Biden in the Electoral College by a count of 312-226.
Across the seven swing states, Trump has 48% support while Biden has 42%.
The numbers are similar to those from a New York Times/ Siena College poll taken in November that also indicated Biden is lagging in the states he needs to win the most.
Biden’s natural gas decision is nuts. Climate extremists don’t know the facts
The Biden White House gave confused climate activists a major win Friday when it announced it was delaying several proposed natural gas terminals
Some confused climate activists are asking President Biden to hurt the climate. Protesters are planning a sit-in at the Department of Energy next month, calling for the White House to not permit any new liquefied natural gas (L.N.G.) export terminals. But examining the facts shows that surrendering to this pressure would actually raise global greenhouse gas emissions — as well as hinder our allies’ energy security and our economy.
Those on the left who oppose L.N.G. exports cite concerns about emissions. They also argue that natural gas exports are sabotaging the deployment of renewable energy.
These objections are off the mark for two main reasons. First, American L.N.G. exports have a carbon advantage over more carbon-intensive sources of power generation overseas that they displace. Focusing on natural gas, Russian exports to Europe produce over 40 percent more greenhouse gas emissions than U.S. exports to Europe.
America’s enemies are hoping we ‘go green’
Delaying energy projects empowers rivals like Russia, China, and Iran

Soros-Funded Group Seeks to ‘Turn Texas Blue’ with Mass Immigration
A political action committee (PAC), financially backed by billionaire George Soros, is looking to “turn Texas blue” this year as other left-wing groups have expressed increasing interest in turning the state blue with the help of mass immigration.
Texas Majority PAC, run by consultants who worked for Beto O’Rourke’s failed gubernatorial campaign, is being partially funded by Soros, who has a net worth of $6.7 billion and remains one of the biggest donors to Democrats in the United States.
According to records reviewed by the Texas Tribune, the group raised $2.25 million since its inception after the 2022 midterm elections. In particular, through the group, Soros has thrown six-figure donations to Democrats in Dallas County, Cameron County, and Hidalgo County.
“We need millions of more dollars and hundreds of more full-time staff to do this,” the group’s deputy executive director Katherine Fischer told the Texas Tribune. “Texas Majority PAC works with partners across the state to create the conditions that will make flipping the state possible.”
At the same time, the left-wing group Voto Latino has made it clear they are looking to turn Texas blue this year with mass immigration to the state.
Reminder… The Secret History of the Shadow Campaign That Saved the 2020 Election
A weird thing happened right after the Nov. 3 election: nothing.
The nation was braced for chaos. Liberal groups had vowed to take to the streets, planning hundreds of protests across the country. Right-wing militias were girding for battle. In a poll before Election Day, 75% of Americans voiced concern about violence.
Instead, an eerie quiet descended. As President Trump refused to concede, the response was not mass action but crickets. When media organizations called the race for Joe Biden on Nov. 7, jubilation broke out instead, as people thronged cities across the U.S. to celebrate the democratic process that resulted in Trump’s ouster.
A second odd thing happened amid Trump’s attempts to reverse the result: corporate America turned on him. Hundreds of major business leaders, many of whom had backed Trump’s candidacy and supported his policies, called on him to concede. To the President, something felt amiss. “It was all very, very strange,” Trump said on Dec. 2. “Within days after the election, we witnessed an orchestrated effort to anoint the winner, even while many key states were still being counted.”
In a way, Trump was right.
There was a conspiracy unfolding behind the scenes, one that both curtailed the protests and coordinated the resistance from CEOs. Both surprises were the result of an informal alliance between left-wing activists and business titans. The pact was formalized in a terse, little-noticed joint statement of the U.S. Chamber of Commerce and AFL-CIO published on Election Day. Both sides would come to see it as a sort of implicit bargain–inspired by the summer’s massive, sometimes destructive racial-justice protests–in which the forces of labor came together with the forces of capital to keep the peace and oppose Trump’s assault on democracy.
Four Reasons to Buy When You Downsize for Retirement
Buying your retirement home, rather than renting it, grants you stability, control, possible tax benefits and a very handy inflation hedge.
I grew up in a Red Sox household. The mere sight of the Yankees’ logo caused a gag reflex all the way until my early 30s, when I realized just how ridiculous this was. People tend to have similar feelings about renting vs owning a home. They pick a side and stick with it. Logic be damned.
For retirees, there are many more fans of owning than there are of renting, with Vanguard estimating that 80% of retirees are homeowners. Therefore, my previous article Four Reasons to Rent When You Downsize for Retirement was what Gen Z might call “a hot take.” Today, I’ll side with the majority and give you the four reasons it may make sense to buy again in retirement.
As you downsize in retirement, here are four reasons you may want to buy again:
16 Retirement Mistakes You Will Regret Forever
From saving too little to claiming Social Security too early, there are plenty of ways that current and future retirees can sabotage their golden years.
As more and more baby boomers start eyeing retirement, thoughts turn from worry over the workday slog to concerns about how to fund the golden years.
How prepared are you? How much money do you really need to retire? Do you know the ins and outs of your pension (if you’re lucky enough to have one)? How about your 401(k), IRA and other retirement accounts that make up your nest egg? Do you have a good handle on when to claim Social Security benefits?
These are some of the questions to contemplate as retirement approaches. But long before you punch out, make sure you are making the right choices.
To help, we’ve compiled a list of the biggest retirement planning mistakes and how to avoid making them. Take a look to see if any sound familiar.
