From the article -- Department of Homeland Security Secretary Alejandro Mayorkas said FEMA does not have the funds to make it through the remainder of hurricane season, yet $640 million has been allotted to DHS specifically for issues related to illegal immigrants. “We are meeting the immediate needs with the money that we have. We are expecting another hurricane hitting. We do not have the funds — FEMA does not have the funds — to make it through the season,” Mayorkas revealed.
This is problematic, as hurricane season does not end until November 30. According to Fox News’s Chad Pergram, “Congress made sure FEMA had more than $20 billion in last week’s emergency spending bill ahead of the storm, but last year, Congress awarded DHS $640 million to help communities provide shelter and aid to people in the country illegally.”

From the article -- Second, Biden-Harris nihilistically killed off the Trump administration's "Abraham Accords." That diplomatic breakthrough had proven a successful blueprint for moderate Arab nations to seek detente with Israel, ending decades of hostilities to unite against the common Middle East threat of Iran.
Third, Biden begged Iran to reenter the appeasing, so-called Iran Deal that virtually had ensured that Iran would eventually get the bomb. Worse yet, it dropped oil sanctions against the theocracy, allowing a near-destitute Iran to recoup $100 billion in profits. And it greenlighted $6 billion in hostage ransoms to Tehran. An enriched Tehran immediately sent billions of dollars in support and weapons to the anti-Western terrorists of Hamas, Hezbollah, and the Houthis to attack Israel, Americans, and international shipping. Iran soon began partnering with China and Russia to form a new anti-American axis.
Biden-Harris also fled abruptly from Afghanistan, abandoning billions in weapons and American contractors. The humiliation thus virtually destroyed American deterrence in the Middle East, inciting enemies and endangering friends.
* "9 Ways Harris and Walz Built Their Campaign on Misinformation and Disinformation" (Ben Johnson, Washington Stand)
From the article -- More than any time in history, the Democratic Party has spent the last eight years warning that politics runs the risk of being contaminated by the foul specter of “misinformation and disinformation.” Anyone conversant with politics knows “misinformation and disinformation” have long been synonymous with political campaigns from candidates of all backgrounds, but the Harris-Walz campaign wants to criminalize political differences.
In 2019, then-presidential candidate Kamala Harris promised the NAACP that she will “hold social media platforms accountable” if they “act as a megaphone for misinformation.” But if she did that, Harris might turn her own campaign into a federal case. She has frequently been guilty of what the head of her proposed federal disinformation board, Nina Jankowicz, called “information laundering”: repeating lies in a prominent political or media outlet. As we have noted, ABC News moderators let at least 10 Kamala Harris lies slide at her (apparently only) debate with Donald Trump on September 10, many of which she had made in her acceptance speech at the Democratic National Convention and some of which the party had enshrined in the 2024 Democratic Party platform. Here are a few more...
* "Convicted criminal migrant deportations have decreased 74% under Joe Biden and Kamala Harris, damning new figures reveal" (Charlie Spiering, Daily Mail)
From the article -- President Joe Biden and Vice President Kamala Harris are deporting far fewer illegal aliens even as border crossings are at an all-time high as revealed by shocking new data exclusively obtained by DailyMail.com. The number of criminal illegal aliens removed from the United States has fallen 74 percent under the Biden-Harris administration, according to public numbers compiled by the National Immigration Center for Enforcement first provided to DailyMail.com.
Only 134,617 convicted criminal aliens were removed over the last three fiscal years under the Biden-Harris administration even as a flood of migrants continue making their way across the borders. U.S. Customs and Border Protection numbers show more than 10.3 million encounters with migrants on America's borders during the first three years of the Biden-Harris administration, not including the estimated over 2 million migrants eluding border patrol agents.
The numbers pose a problem for Harris, once dubbed as the 'border czar' after President Biden appointed her as a lead figure to handle the root causes of migration and lead messaging on the border crisis.
