USA TODAY: Biden admits US border isn't secure. But president has done little to solve migration problem. Taxpayers in cities and states hundreds or thousands of miles away from the border now bear the burden of the Biden administration's inept le

The actual question on the poll referenced and completely misrepresented in the Bloomberg article above is this...
Based on what you know, how responsible, if at all, are the following for the increase
in migrants crossing the U.S.-Mexico border? — President Joe Biden
Very responsible 2010 41%
Somewhat responsible 1006 20%
Not that responsible 671 14%
Not responsible at all 734 15%
Don’t know/no opinion 536 11%

That's a LOT fucking worse than they presented it.
Only 15% of voters in those swing states don't blame Joe Biden* for the immigration problem. (Those same 15% of voters blame Republicans for the problem two questions above this one).
61% of voters blame Joe Biden*, like the article indicated.
Half of the Democrat voters can't bring themselves to not give him at least some of the blame on the issue. 11% of the voters are blissfully unaware of the world around them.
That's 1.5 out of every 10 voters in the swing states that "vote blue no matter who".
Looks like nobody is buying the lies out of the white house that the media is trying to get people to buy. That's what happens when the propaganda arm of the Democrat government spends all day lying about everything for 7 years straight. Nobody listens to them anymore.
JOE* IS SUPER FUCKED.

75% Of House Democrats Voted Against Deporting Criminal Migrants Who Commit Social Security Fraud
Democrats talk a big game about 'Republican attacks on Social Security,' but 75% of House Dems just voted against deporting migrants who commit Social Security fraud.
Introduced by Rep. Tom McClintock (R-CA) in December, H.R. 6678 passed with 172 "yea" votes, and 155 "nay" votes - all Democrats, with 55 of them voting with the Republicans.
As former Trump adviser and head of the America First Legal Foundation Stephen Miller posted on X, "155 HOUSE DEMOCRATS — 75% OF THEIR CONFERENCE — JUST VOTED AGAINST DEPORTING CRIMINAL MIGRANTS WHO COMMIT SOCIAL SECURITY FRAUD AND ROB OUR SENIORS."
"They’d rather protect illegal aliens than our seniors," said the House Judiciary Committee in a Thursday post on X.
Meanwhile, 150 Democrats also voted against legislation that would quickly deport illegal aliens who drive drunk.
"I am appalled to see a majority of Democrats in the House of Representatives voting to prevent illegal aliens who endanger the lives of American citizens by drunk driving from being deported. Americans deserve leaders who put their safety and prosperity first," said Rep. August Pfluger (R-TX).
According to OA Online, "H.R. 6976, the Protect Our Communities from DUIs Act, introduced by Rep. Barry Moore (R-AL), closes a gaping loophole in U.S. immigration law related to drunk driving. Because there is neither a ground of inadmissibility nor a ground of removability explicitly related to driving under the influence (DUI) of alcohol or drugs, criminal aliens currently can escape accountability for their reckless actions and be free to re-offend and endanger communities. By creating a ground of inadmissibility and a ground of removability for aliens who have committed DUI offenses, this legislation provides long-awaited and much-needed reforms to safeguard American communities."
According to Rep. Rashida Tlaib (D-MI), the bill would create a "separate but unequal" system of justice for immigrants.
Uh, Tlaib? There's a reason why illegal immigrants treated differently: THEY'RE NOT CITIZENS AND THEY'VE ALREADY BROKEN ONE LAW.

The good news is, enough Democrats are voting for common sense legislation here to pass these things.
That wouldn't have happened just a year ago.

How are Democrats so fucked up in the 2020's that Bill Maher is so often the voice of reason for the party?
Maher: Biden Can Fix Border Crisis, He Doesn't Need New Powers While There Are Existing Laws
Quote:
BILL MAHER: This election, my guess, will probably turn on something like, I don't know if you saw this but yesterday in New York City some illegal immigrants who were brought to the city attacked a bunch of cops. I think we have video of it.
This is real. That's what's going to happen this election. It's only in 8 states. Most of the country has their mind made up. No matter what either guy did it wouldn't change. It's going to be something like this that, whatever, the 4% of people who are actually undecided in those 8 states. They're going to see something like this.
This is what I worry about. Is this even real? I mean, this one is. But we have, please, we have Biden making robocalls that are not Joe Biden. We have Taylor Swift having sex with people, and it's not Taylor Swift. I don't think anything in this election could be certified as real. But that's what worries me about this election. Something like that, and that's an immigration issue.
[Illegal] immigration is real but their reaction to it is not real. It's all a bunch of acting. They should be getting some kind of award this award season. No, really. The Republicans act like they want to solve this but the Democrats called their bluff. There is a bill right now that a lot of them, Mitch McConnell, a pretty conservative Senator, saying this is as good of a deal that you are going to get. They don't want it because they don't want this issue to be solved because they can use it as an issue so you can make speeches like the one you just made about "working class" and blah, blah, blah. If they solve the immigration --
[LAUGHTER]
Well, it's better than what Trump does.
[LAUGHTER]
...
I was going to say that part two of the acting is Joe Biden saying you know what if you just give me a new law -- a new law? Why doesn't -- the president can fix this. He already has the existing laws. "I need a piece of paper from Congress to deal with the border." No, you already have that.

Outrageous—But Not Surprising
The Times Square assault of two NYPD officers, and the release of several of the suspects, are predictable outcomes of destructive policies on migrants and public safety.

Last weekend, video cameras posted in Times Square captured a scene that has sparked outrage across the city. While struggling to arrest a resisting suspect, two NYPD officers were viciously attacked by at least six other men—all migrants, recently arrived in our “sanctuary city.” They all got away. Not long afterward, police made seven arrests related to the incident, on charges that included assault and robbery (according to reports, one of the officers’ cell phone was stolen during the fight). Adding insult to injury, at least four of the seven attackers have already been released. The attack and the subsequent release of the alleged perpetrators may shock the consciences of many New Yorkers, but anyone surprised by this hasn’t been paying attention.
Keep voting Democrat. See where it gets you.
If you haven't figured it out by now, you're too stupid to vote.

CNN: To Avoid Prosecution, Migrant Criminal Gangs Steal In New York, Spend In Florida
Quote:
JOHN MILLER: These individuals, I went over their rap sheets yesterday, multiple charges, grand larceny, robbery, attempted robbery, grand larceny, and larcency.
This particular crew worked on mopeds and scooters, they were doing organized retail theft, snatches on the street, iPhones, iPads, clothing, so on and so forth. One they are still seeking has ten charges on one day because he's part of a pattern that's been going on. I'm looking at the dates their arrests started, which is probably close to when they got here. They've only been here a couple of months.
So what the detectives are telling me is, they have crews here that operate in New York, do all their stealing, then go to Florida to spend the money and come back. I’m like, 'Why don’t they just stay and steal in Florida?' They said, 'Because there you go to jail.'"

NEWSWEEK: Biden Made Mistake Ignoring Border Issue, Campaign Adviser Says
https://www.msn.com/en-us/news/other/biden-made-mistake-ignoring-borde
r-issue-campaign-adviser-says/ar-BB1hFIRy
Quote:
Representative Veronica Escobar, who has a prominent role in Joe Biden's reelection bid, said the president and the Democratic Party made a critical "mistake" by ignoring the border crisis.
Escobar, a Texas Democrat whom Biden tapped in April to be a national co-chair of his campaign, admitted she's been frustrated with her party's response to the surge of migrants at the southern border.
"I'll be very candid," she told Politico's Deep Dive podcast on Friday. "I wish the Democratic Party, the president included, had leaned in on this issue early on. It's what I advocated—when we were in the majority, we should lean in and we should explain to the American people how difficult this is and how multifaceted the solution has to be."
She continued, "But nobody wanted to talk about it. And I think that was a strategic mistake on the part of my party."
No shit.
We already know that CNN's reporting on this for the last 3 years is partially to blame without even bothering to go back and pull up all of their trash reporting... Would you like me to dig up your article history on this too, Newsweek?

Denver Starts Booting Migrants From Shelters As City Nears 'Breaking Point'
Sunday, Feb 04, 2024 - 01:55 PM
Denver, Colorado is reaching a breaking point as migrant arrivals continue to overwhelm the self-proclaimed sanctuary city.
As a result, Mayor Mike Johnston (D) suggested that the city may stop accepting more, while officials begin the process of booting them from overcrowded shelters.

"I think our city is very close to its breaking point now," he told Fox & Friends last week. And we’ve been talking to leaders in D.C. around the country about why we need them to take action here. I think we have successfully welcomed almost 40,000 migrants in the last year and — and we know what it takes to do this successfully, we just need that help."
Last year the city helped over 38,000 migrants. As of Friday night, 3,895 were staying in city shelters.
"That’s an incredible number of people to shelter, support, feed, help with transportation, deal with case management," said Jon Ewing of Denver Human Services.
According to Johnston, more needs to be done to address the influx of migrants at the southern US border.
"And the things we need are — yes, we need federal dollars, but the most important thing is we need, you know, work authorization for folks when they arrive, and we need those resources at the border so you can add more security at the border and so you can help process those asylum claims so the folks that do arrive here can work," he said.
Perhaps preventing them from entering the country in the first place is the way to go, Mike?
On Friday, Johnson told KOA news that the city is exploring options to pause taking in more people.
"We are considering it. We have to consider all options, particularly if there isn’t any help from the federal government," he said.
Denver is clearing out migrant shelters
According to Fox31, Denver is clearing out shelters used by the migrants.
Starting on Monday, 150 migrants in city shelters will be discharged. Then that number will fluctuate between 50-100 every day until all 3,800 are out of the 10 shelters currently run by the city.
“The hope and goal is that we are able to connect the vast majority with housing, or at least as many of them as we possibly can,” Ewing said.
The number of migrants arriving in Denver is coming down — 48 arrived on Thursday and 64 on Friday, a significant drop from the beginning of January, when that number was 200-300 daily. -Fox31
"4,000 people when you have limited budget, when you have limited resources … very difficult to find enough housing as is, affordable housing as is, in the city of Denver — that’s going to be difficult," said Ewing.
Denver is one of several Democratic strongholds across the United States which pledged maximum virtue by signaling themselves as sanctuary cities - only to be completely unprepared for the surge of migrants that followed the Biden administration's open invitation to them on day one.
New York is facing a similar overload, as Mayor Eric Adams (D) has repeatedly called on the Biden administration to lend a hand in dealing with the migrants. The Big Apple has seen a surge of more than 160,000 asylum seekers since last year.
