Six Democrats Join House GOP to Block Biden from Turning Federal Lands into Migrant Camps
Malliotakis had introduced the legislation just as New York Gov. Kathy Hochul (D) and New York City Mayor Eric Adams (D) got approval from the Biden administration to move hundreds, and potentially thousands, of border crossers and illegal aliens onto Floyd Bennett Field.
“Turning our federal parks into encampments for unvetted migrants from all over the world is unfair to surrounding communities and the taxpayers who are being forced to foot the bill while our Mayor bankrupts our city and slashes services from our citizens,” Malliotakis said in a statement.
The historic, federally-owned airfield was used by the U.S. Coast Guard and Navy during World War II. Before then, the airfield was also used as New York City’s first municipal airport and has had famous guests visit it in prior decades, including Howard Hughes and Howdy Doody.
US commits to shutting down its coal plants during COP28
"We will be working to accelerate unabated coal phase-out across the world, building stronger economies and more resilient communities," Kerry said in a statement.
"The first step is to stop making the problem worse: stop building new unabated coal power plants."
Kerry said America was joining the Powering Past Coal Alliance, a pact of nearly 60 countries that have promised to accelerate the phasing out of coal-fired power stations, except the very few that have carbon capture and storage.
Biden's war on faith and family continues
Nov. 27 was the deadline for comments about the “Safe and Appropriate Foster Care Placement Requirements,” a rule proposed by President Joe Biden’s Administration for Children and Families, which is part of the Department of Health and Human Services. It is yet another manifestation of the Left’s obsession with sexual behaviors and “identities.” It would prevent states from using child adoption agencies, most of them faith-based, that do not accept leftist dogma about clothing choices and “pronouns” for “children in foster care who identify as lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender, queer or questioning, intersex, as well as children who are non-binary, or have non-conforming gender identity or expression.”
The regulation would put children in charge: No matter the child's biology or anatomy, his or her "self-identified sexual orientation, gender identity, and gender expression” would rule the day. Adoption and foster care organizations that do not agree to be “trained” — that is, refuse to be indoctrinated — to comply with the “name and pronouns that align with [children’s] gender identity,” no matter how fleeting or ill-considered, will be banned from providing services to homeless children labeled “LGBTQI+.” If readers cross-refer supporting documents cited for the proposed, it is clear that the required “support” presumes a bias in favor of chemical and surgical transitioning procedures.
Most faith-based adoption agencies reject the transgender assault on chromosomal and anatomical reality, which often does lasting harm . Yet they make up 40% of government-contracted child placement agencies. In some states, either most, in the case of New Mexico, all, private placement agencies are Christian. Observant Christians are three times more likely than the general population to consider fostering children. The attorneys general draw the unavoidable conclusion: “Without faith-based organizations and foster homes, the foster care system would face a critical lack of placement options.”
As the attorneys general also write , the religious-liberty implications of the proposed rule are profound: “This proposed rule seeks to accomplish indirectly what the Supreme Court found unconstitutional just two years ago: remove faith-based providers from the foster care system if they will not conform their religious beliefs on sexual orientation and gender identity.” And: “The proposed rule is unconstitutional because it discriminates against individuals and organizations of faith who want to serve children in the foster care system. The proposed rule also unconstitutionally forces [so-called gender-affirming] speech on foster providers.”

Republicans Stand Firm as Democrats Use ‘Russia!’ Threats to Keep U.S. Borders Open
“The Administration is continually ignoring the catastrophe at our own border,” House Speaker Mike Johnson (R-LA) said Monday in quick response to the White House’s December 4 claim that the GOP’s demand for popular border reforms will “kneecap Ukraine on the battlefield … [and increase] the likelihood of Russian victories.”
Johnson tweeted:
The House passed the H.R.2 border stabilization bill, backed by roughly 30 GOP Senators. The bill is intended to block the administration’s policy of sneaking millions of wage-cutting, rent-spiking economic migrants into the United States via expanded asylum and parole loopholes.
Democrats need a deal because they want $14 billion to help accelerate — and hide — the flow of migrants into U.S. cities. They are also asking for $60 billion to help Ukrainians fight Russian forces after President Joe Biden declined to push for a negotiated settlement.
The Ukraine funding will not pass without a border reform, Sen. James Lankford (R-OK) told ABC’s This Week on Sunday. “We’re going to do this all together,” said Lankford, one of three GOP Senators negotiating with Democrats.
Sorry. There will be no trading in the Dem gravy train for a Rep gravy train. You want stuff, put your hands back in your pockets and work for it just like we have to.
He’s Bidened it again! Politico ran a disgraceful story yesterday about non-news headlined, “Congress provided $7.5B for electric vehicle chargers. Built so far: Zero.” The sub-headline explained, “The sluggish rollout could undermine President Joe Biden’s reelection messaging promoting electric vehicles.” You don’t say.
The news is: there’s no news, not of any new government chargers, anyway.
It’s been over two years since Congress approved billions in charger-program money, in Joe Biden’s fabulously-expensive “Inflation Reduction Act.” But nobody has even installed one single charger. They’re all blaming state and local requirements and regulations. Regular folks have no idea how hard it is to build anything these days.
Well, we have some idea. And during the same two-year period, Tesla — a private company, using its own money — has installed thousands of new charging stations.

This week, Congress has been busy doing lots of stuff you’ll probably like. A few random headlines from just the last two days:
In that last CNN story about Ukraine and Israeli aid, Senator Kevin Cramer (R-N.D.) was quoted making the glaringly-obvious point:
Indeed. It’s hard to figure why Biden is so hell-bent on keeping the U.S. border open that he’s willing to let Ukraine die in the trenches. Or maybe the Biden Administration is intentionally starving Ukraine, while letting the Republicans “take the blame” for how the Proxy War ends. Whichever, it’s all politics.

Defense Secretary Warned Congress U.S. Troops Could Be Deployed If Ukraine Aid Is Not Sent
“If [Vladimir] Putin takes over Ukraine, he’ll get Moldova, Georgia, then maybe the Baltics,” House Foreign Affairs Chairman Michael McCaul (R-TX) told The Messenger, after Austin and other senior Biden administration officials briefed House lawmakers on their request for more aid for Ukraine.
“And then the idea that we’ll have to put troops on the ground in Secretary Austin’s word was very likely,” McCaul added. “That’s what we’re trying to avoid.”
The Messenger reported that the warning “did little” to win over Republican skeptics, who oppose more aid to Ukraine without more accountability and transparency on how it will help Ukraine.
House Speaker Mike Johnson (R-LA) told the outlet, “I don’t think we got the clarity that we’ve been requesting,” and that “It remains to be seen whether members are satisfied with the answers provided.”
Sounds like blackmail to me .....
Joe Biden: Republican ‘Petty’ Border Politics Block Ukraine Deal
“Petty partisan angry politics can’t get in the way of our responsibility as a leading nation in the world,” Biden said at a midday appearance in the White House.
Many polls show that Biden’s economic strategy of Extraction Migration has broken public support for migration. For example, a recent poll shows that a majority of the Jewish community in New York said that migration is more of a burden than a benefit.
Many of the polls suggest that Biden’s migration will damage Democrat chances in 2024 and boost the GOP’s chances.
Wait. If all the WH interns quit or are fired, who's going to run the Executive Branch?
Free Malaysia Today ran a story yesterday headlined, “Ukraine aid also creates growth, jobs at home, says Blinken.“ Looking especially haggard and worn-out, and almost fully-grey now, owlish Secretary of State and master propagandist Antony Blinken assured press conference reporters yesterday that, “if you look at the investments that we’ve made in Ukraine’s defense to deal with this aggression, 90% of the security assistance we’ve provided has actually been spent here in the US with our manufacturers.”
The serial prevaricator stressed that Ukraine aid has “produced more American jobs, more growth in our own economy.” He didn’t cite any statistics. But don’t ask questions. You see, it’s win-win.
This is the kind of robotic, anti-human, tone-deaf argument that is often caused by chronic Adderall consumption. 600,000 dead Ukrainians were unavailable to comment on how 90% of the laundered aid money actually helps the U.S. economy. Twelve million displaced Ukrainians also did not return any requests for comment by the time of publication.
