Winning: San Diego migrant shelter closing due to lack of clients

Promises Made. Promises Kept.

What do you know? Turns out one can make our border security a priority when they have the fortitude to do so, rather than just promising to do so when they are campaigning (I’m talking about you, Kamala).

Fox News reports that the Jewish Family Center of San Diego has recevied zero new migrants since President Trump shut down the CBP One mobile app on his first day in office. From their report:

A San Diego migrant shelter is closing its doors and laying off more than 100 employees because of funding and policy changes under the Trump administration.

The Jewish Family Service of San Diego, which has operated a regional migrant shelter for over six years, announced it will close its facility and lay off 115 employees due to “changes in federal funding and policy.”

The non-governmental organization (NGO) said they have not received new asylum-seeking families or individuals since the CBP One phone app went down on Jan. 20. 

The app, which ultimately allowed immigrants to be paroled into the U.S., was created during the first Trump administration to assist with scheduling cargo inspections. 

It expanded in 2023 to allow migrants to make an appointment at a port of entry to be allowed in, initially due to an exception from the Title 42 public health order. Since May, they had the potential to be paroled into the U.S. as part of the Biden administration’s expansion of “lawful pathways.” 

As of the end of December, more than 936,500 individuals had made appointments to be paroled through the app, according to Customs and Border Protection.”

Read the whole story here.

Jewish Family Service of San Diego is a NGO which, as most NGOs do, receives a lot of taxpayer dollars. How much have they received? The organization received $22,077,365 in taxpayer-funded FEMA money in Fiscal Year 2024 despite claiming they received no funds, according to grant records on the FEMA website.

Imagine how much of this $22M taxpayer dollars could have be used to help American citizens in disaster areas (Maui, Palisades, Florida, Carolinas, etc.) instead of facilitating illegal alien crossings.

This is exactly why President Trump won: He promised to tackle border security and within a month he’s doing it.

More winning: AG Bondi orders DOJ to pause federal funding for sanctuary cities

Yesterday, Pam Bondi was sworn in as Attorney General of the United States. She immediately went to work for President Trump and the American people who voted for him.

The Blaze reports that hours after taking her role, AG Bondi directed the Department of Justice to halt federal funding to sanctuary cities. Fox News reports: “Bondi also has directed the DOJ to identify and evaluate all funding agreements with nongovernmental organizations (NGOs) that provide support to illegal aliens. She is also directing litigating components of the Justice Department to investigate instances of jurisdictions that are impeding law enforcement, and directing they be prosecuted, when necessary.”

Pay attention, democrats. You are now on notice.

Illinois Governor J.B. Pritzker

Gov. Pritzker has vowed to “stand in the way’’ of certain Trump deportation policies, including those targeting “law-abiding’’ illegal migrants. From NY Post:

“When we’re talking about violent criminals who’ve been convicted and who are undocumented, we don’t want them in our state,” Pritzker, 60, told CNN’s “State of the Union.” “We want them out of the country.

“We hope they do get deported,” he said, referring to Trump’s policy of targeting illegal migrant criminals first under his mass deportation plan.

But “we also have a law in the books in Illinois that says that our local law enforcement will stand up for those law-abiding undocumented people in our state,” he said.

Hey, fat boy: If people are in the country illegally they are not “law-abiding.”

Democrat governor Tina Kotek

Oregon’s governor, Tina Kotek, has also declared she will fight our federal immigration laws. From WJAC:

“Oregon Gov. Tina Kotek said in a video posted Sunday she will uphold state law prohibiting government officials and police from helping federal authorities with enforcing immigration laws.

“I will uphold Oregon’s sanctuary promise laws – laws that were passed with almost unanimous bipartisan support in the 1980s,” she said in the message shared on social media platform X.

Oregon passed a law in 1987 barring police from taking into custody people who aren’t U.S. citizens if their only offense is being in the U.S. illegally. Currently, the state prohibits public agencies from collaborating with the federal government to enforce immigration laws.”

Plenty of other democrat governors plan to fight President Trump on this issue. Be prepared, governors, for your state’s cities to quickly lose access to federal tax-payer dollars.

You may believe that your “resistance” is going to win. But make no mistake: There’s a new and hardened President Trump in office. One that is ready to “fight, fight, fight!”

Trump proves liberals wrong: Threat of tariffs is one way to play hardball

 

President Trump continues to make good on his promise to protect America’s borders.

Last week he threatened several countries that have been complacent in allowing the invasion of America (both illegal aliens and drugs, particulary fentynal). Trump threateded Columbia, Venezuela, Mexico, Canada and China with tariffs if they didn’t help control their own borders, accept back their citizens, and work to stop the flow of drugs.

Liberals immediately screamed about how the tariffs would be devastating for Americans and that we were all going to face the wrath of tariffs through higher prices at the grocery store and the pump.

A couple days later and President Trump proves them wrong, as usual.

Columbia caved to Trump’s tariffs and agreed to accept their criminal illegal aliens as well as provide transportation for them to get back home.

Venezuela caved and agreed to accept the country’s illegal aliens living in the U.S. Bonus: Six American hostages held in that country were returned to us.

Mexico has now caved as well. From LA Times:

“Mexican President Claudia Sheinbaum, in a post on X, said she spoke to the American leader Monday morning and that they came to an accord that delays for at least a month Trump’s threat of 25% tariffs on all Mexican goods imported to the United States.

In exchange, she said Mexico had agreed to reinforce its northern border with 10,000 members of its national guard in order to combat migration and the trafficking of illegal drugs.”

Canada, being that the government is full of progressive moonbats, believes they can win the game against President Trump. Not everyone, especially those who run a real business, agree. From NY Post:

“The CEO of Canada’s second-largest publicly traded company says Canadians want their government to do all the things that President Trump is demanding — and slammed outgoing Prime Minister Justin Trudeau for not preventing the trade war.

“Canada thrives when it works with America together. Win by helping America win. Trump believes that Canada has not held its side of the bargain,” Tobi Lutke, who co-founded Shopify, wrote on X.

“These are things that every Canadian wants its government to do, too. These are not crazy demands, even if they came from an unpopular source. These tariffs are going to be devastating to so many people’s lives and small businesses.

Time will tell if Canada will go the way of the South American countries and work with Trump to stop the inflow of immigrants and drugs at our northern border.

UPDATE: A couple hours after I posted this I see this headline at The Gateway Pundit:

Justin Trudeau Caves to President Trump on Tariff Showdown – Will Implement Massive Border Plan to Stop Flow of Fentanyl

“Trudeau announced a short time ago that he will implement their own massive border plan to stop fentanyl, which has killed perhaps millions of Americans. Like Mexico, this includes 10,000 frontline personnel but also so much more. In the meantime, tariffs will be delayed.”

These countries better get use to the new sheriff in charge of the U.S.A. They aren’t going to be dealing with ‘ol senile Joe anymore. President Trump is playing hardball. And he’s bound and determined to win for the American citizens.

There’s a new sheriff in town and legacy media weeps

Legacy media (or arm of the DNC as they often act) is dead. A self-inflicted mortal would that, one could say, began when Obama became president. They slobbered over the first black president and couldn’t hide their glee for him.

As President Trump began his first term, full-blown Trump Derangement Syndrome (TDS) inflicted every liberal and progressive media outlet. And we all know about their pushing every hoax under the sun to prevent him from getting re-elected.

Under the Biden administration, legacy media did all they could to protect the senile man. Despite crumbling ratings, they tried to back the old horse for as long as they could. And they lost all credibility.

Fast-forward to November 2024 and after four disasterous years of Biden, Americans had enough. We elected a new sheriff to run this country.

President Trump and his administration are playing hardball this term and setting new rules and guidelines to control the agenda they promised Americans.

Yesterday press secretary Karoline Leavitt held her first briefing and it was spectacular in many ways. She announced major changes to the press room and how this administration will be more welcoming to alternative press outlets.

As reported by Fox News, Leavitt announced the Trump administration was rolling out major changes to make room for newer, less traditional media voices in the briefing room.

Leavitt told reporters these changes were being made to keep in line with President Donald Trump’s “revolutionary media approach” that he deployed during his campaign in speaking to popular podcast hosts and social media influencers. From the report:

“In keeping with this revolutionary media approach that President Trump deployed during the campaign, the Trump White House will speak to all media outlets and personalities, not just the legacy media who are seated in this room,” she began before citing Gallup polls showing Americans’ low confidence in the mainstream media.

“Millions of Americans, especially young people, have turned from traditional television outlets and newspapers to consume their news from podcasts, blogs, social media and other independent outlets,” Leavitt continued. “It’s essential to our team that we share President Trump‘s message everywhere and adapt this White House to the new media landscape in 2025.”

Leavitt announced steps the Trump administration was taking to accomplish this, beginning with restoring the press passes for 440 journalists whose passes she said “were wrongly revoked” by the Biden administration.

The briefing room will also now be opened up to “new media voices who produce news-related content” and outlets who haven’t been welcomed into the briefing room previously, she said.”

After Karoline’s first briefing today, you can see she is going to handle the press in a boss way. Watch a clip:

You can watch the whole press conference here.

Karoline also told the press corp that they need to hold themselves to the same standard of truth they hold the White House. And she did this whole briefing without a “binder” or a “circle back.”

Don’t hold your breath that the legacy media will accept this “truth” challenge. They can’t help themselves due to their TDS. Adieu, legacy media. You deserve this cancellation.

One week into his presidency, Trump moving fast to cleanup Biden’s mess

Is your head reeling yet from trying to keep up with President’s Trumps actions and executive orders in the first week of his presidency? He’s out of the gate this term and is ready to Make America Great Again.

To help keep up, the White House has a list of Trump’s historic actions in his first 100 hours. A portion of the list:

  • President Trump is already securing the border and arresting criminal illegal immigrants.
  • The Border Patrol is reporting a significant drop already in attempted illegal crossings.
  • The Trump Administration immediately shut down the CBP One app, which “paroled” over 1 million illegal immigrants.
  • Deportation flights have already started and the military is assisting with the effort.
  • President Trump signed a series of executive orders ensuring the elimination of discriminatory DEI practices and ensuring merit-based hiring.
  • DEI staff are being placed on leave.
  • The Federal Aviation Administration must now return to merit-based hiring.
  • President Donald Trump signed an executive order telling agencies to stop remote work practices and directing workers to return to the office.
  • President Trump withdrew the United States from the disastrous Paris Climate Agreement that unfairly ripped off our country.
  • President Trump paused all new federal leasing and permitting for massive wind farms that degrade our natural landscapes and fail to serve American energy consumers.

There’s much more! Read the whole list provided by the Trump Administration here.

Over the weekend, Trump’s administration was busy playing hardball.

Border Czar Tom Homan

First, they targeted the members from the violent Venezuala TdA gang. From Twitchy:

“In a joint operation with the ATF, ICE, and local law enforcement, DEA agents raided a party in a suburban Denver warehouse. Agents seized drugs, weapons, and cash and took nearly 50 suspected illegal gang members into custody. The federal party crashers said the warehouse was being used as a makeshift nightclub where the notorious Venezuelan gang, Tren de Aragua, or TdA, was hosting an invitation-only party.”

Read the details about that raid here.

Next, Columbian President Gustavo Petro learned real quick that President Trump is not going to rollover.

Early Sunday, Petro tried denying entry to US military deportation flights carrying Columbia citizens (including illegal criminals) removed from the US. Swiftly, President Trump issued a harsh response to Petro that included:

  • Emergency 25% tariffs on all goods coming into the United States. In one week, the 25% tariffs will be raised to 50%.
  • A Travel Ban and immediate Visa Revocations on the Colombian Government Officials, and all Allies and Supporters.
  • Visa Sanctions on all Party Members, Family Members, and Supporters of the Colombian Government.

Within an hour, Petro reversed course by sending Columbia’s presidential plane to collect Colombian deportees earlier barred from landing. Read the all the details about this here.

And last night Border Czar Homan was on the ground with ICE in the sanctuary city of Chicago to arrest an illegal alien child sex offender. Dr. Phil was along for the arrest, apparently to film this for some future show for his  MeritTV.

What a difference one week under President Trump makes compared to the feckless incompetence of the last four years. America is back, baby!

I can hardly wait for what may happen this week!

Priorities for NYC democrats: Wigs, prosthetic penises and breasts for “trans” prisoners

New York City is having all kinds of problems due to democrats being in charge and their importing illegal aliens.

The New York Post reported last week that migrants are flooding the city’s justice system and they now make up 75% of arrests in midtown.

Seven months ago it was reported that a NYC neighborhood was turned into a giant toilet as migrants litter a park with poop and leave cups of urine on doorsteps.

Last June I reported on a townhall meeting with New York City Councilmember Crystal Hudson where residents were furious over crime occurring outside of a illegal alien shelter housing 3,000 men. At the time, Hudson blamed the mayor for a lack of support in dealing with the migrant crisis.

Councilmember Hudson prioritizing the mentally ill.

But don’t worry New York, Hudson is on top of the “migrant crisis” now. Her latest bill:

Trans prisoners to get wigs, prosthetic penises and breasts under Democrat bill

From The Daily Mail:

“Trans prisoners in New York City will have access to ‘gender-affirming’ devices such as prosthetic penises and breasts under a new bill proposed by a Democratic lawmaker.

Councilwoman Crystal Hudson’s bill would also give guards at NYC prisons access to items like breast binders, wigs and tucking undergarments, as first reported by the New York Post. Hudson is expected to introduce the bill during Thursdays city council meeting.

The legislation is backed by fellow Democratic councilmembers Farah N. Louis, Chi A. Ossé.

‘This bill would establish a process for people in custody to obtain wigs, hair extensions, chest binders, tucking undergarments or gaffs, prosthetics, or other similar items or medical devices that are used by individuals to affirm their self-determined gender identity,’ according to the NYC Council website.

‘The bill also requires Department of Correction staff to have access to gender-affirming items or medical devices while at work.’ According to the bill, it would be up to the NYC Department of Correction to decide who foots the bill for the gender-affirming care.”

Read the whole story here.

Good job New Yorkers in electing Hudson. You can safely sleep at night knowing that illegal aliens and trans people are being coddled with your tax dollars.

Remember in November:
