the first responsibility of a US president is to protect the American people.

Really where were you in 2021 through 2024?

The report, which encompasses Fiscal Years 2021 through 2024, reveals that under Joe Biden, U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) received 3,145,375 leads about possible alien overstays. Of that amount, 104,049 (approximately 3.3%) were categorized as potential national security and public safety concerns.

But of the leads for possible national security threats, only 496 investigations were launched, resulting in the arrest of just eight aliens. The remaining 3,041,326 overstay leads (96.7%) were determined to be "Non-Priority." Of the 2,837,188 Non-Priority leads that were sent to ICE Enforcement and Removal Operations (ERO), only five leads were investigated after being determined to be possible public safety threats, and with only two arrests being made.

"The degree of the Biden Administration's dereliction of duty, which needlessly put American lives at risk, is staggering and enraging," said DHS Secretary Markwayne Mullin. "As if the wide-open borders weren't enough, a new OIG report reveals that the Biden-era ICE failed to act on more than 3 million leads about possible alien overstays, with more than 100,000 of these being labeled as potential national security threats. Unlike the Biden Administration, the Trump Administration will always put the safety of the American people first. We will target and remove as many illegal aliens as possible to make America safe again."

The irony of the complaining about Trump, is that should a terrorist actually implement a planned attack to destroy LA or San Diego, or any other city in the US.

He/She/They would have been let into the country under Biden.

"And I want to stress that fertilizer thing."

Failing farms are good for J.D. Vance investment portfolio.
Dots aren't hard to connect:

JD Vance funded AcreTrader. Here's why that matters.

Vance invested up to $65,000 in private investments in AcreTrader during his stint as a venture capitalist, according to his 2022 financial disclosure to the Senate ethics committee. The investment firm Narya Capital"which Vance launched in 2020 with backing from PayPal co-founder Peter Thiel"was a vehicle for these investments, and a key backer in early funding rounds of the farmland startup. And while Vance is no longer listed as a partner at Narya Capital, according to his 2023 financial disclosure, he appears to still be an investor in the firm"or more technically, multiple legal entities with names including Narya.

The fuel price shock due to disruptions in the supply chain are the obvious immediate signs people can see and react to. In America those shocks are relatively light compared to other countries where basic services had to be curtailed due to a lack of fuel. (Typ. American policy that harms other people and we only care when we are harmed).

but the fertilizer issue is a problem that will play out for years

Loss of fertilizer will result in lower crop yield resulting in less food going to vulnerable areas of the world.

That will inevitably lead to local conflicts that push people to migrate to where food is available-that is inevitable and unavoidable.

And when those people show up on our shore, the zero tolerance immigration policy will be useless. Desperate people will take desperate measures.

And magat scum will accept no responsibility or culpability for this mass migration. They will say go back to where you came from even though OUR actions have made those areas unlivable.

Haiiti is an example of this dynamic. Imperialist countries exploited the nation for centuries and then when they pulled out the left the Haitians with a debt that prevents investment. That leads to sustained poverty and violence. Regular meddling in their affairs leads to constant instability. Combine that to a number of natural disasters results in Haitians wanting to flee, need to flee because people need and want to actually live. Then you get -------- like Piggy and Vance screaming their eating cats and dogs, never acknowledging these people are here, in part, because we ------ up their country

Mark Houck

Ballsucker's example of Biden "lawfare"

Serial harasser of women seeking reproductive care verbally abuses and curses and elderly man and then shoves him to the ground in front of his 11-year old son.

Is charged with felony obstruction of a reproductive care facility

This is what that ------- compares to Piggy ordering the DoJ to file charges against political enemies.

" Ever hear of Mark Houck?"

No."

Here is a link:

He got into a minor altercation with an abortion clinic volunteer. The volunteer yelled at his 12 year old son and Houck shoved the man who t then tried to press charges against Houck. Local authorities declined any prosecution. So, the Feds conducted a pre-dawn, guns drawn raid and arrested him and charged him with violating the FACE Act. He was acquitted and then successfully sued the DOJ for civil damages. Lemme guess, you don't view that as lawfare.
