"But what the Clintons do is criminal because they do it wholly at the expense of the American people. And they feel thoroughly entitled to do it: gain power, use it to enrich themselves and their friends. They are amoral, immoral, and venal. Hillary has no core beliefs beyond power and money. That should be clear to every person on the planet by now." ---- Patricia McCarthy
The main objective of “political animals” like Obama and the Clintons is to get elected; it’s not to fix a broken America, nor to protect her. There are people who govern and there are people who campaign; Obama and the Clintons are the latter. Just look at the huge Republican electoral gains under Obama and the Clintons. It’s amazing that Democrats who still care about their party still support the very people who have brought it down.
Many Democrats understand that the welfare checks for foreign children will encourage more illegal immigration, he said:
They know what’s going on. But they know that they can’t say what their true goal is, which is actual open borders with open, uncontrolled migration both ways. And this is a step toward getting rid of borders.
“It’s a globalist mindset and it welcomes anything that moves toward open borders,” he concluded. NEIL MUNRO
Zuckerberg’s goal was to massively increase voter turnout in Democrat-dominated jurisdictions by maximizing fraud-breeding practices like ballot harvesting, the use of unmonitored ballot drop boxes, and mail-in voting without strict signature-matching requirements. To achieve his political ends, Zuckerberg poured hundreds of millions of dollars into the coffers of a pair of politically partisan, tax-exempt nonprofit organizations that were more than willing to do his dirty work and secure the presidency for a doddering contempt-for-the-law-and-the-truth Alzheimer’s case.
THE DEMOCRAT PARTY’S BILLIONAIRES’ GLOBALIST EMPIRE requires someone as ruthlessly dishonest as Hillary Clinton or Barack Obama to be puppet dictators.
Globalism: Google VP Kent Walker insists that despite its repeated rejection by electorates around the world, “globalization” is an “incredible force for good.”
Hillary Clinton’s Democratic party: An executive nearly broke down crying because of the candidate’s loss. Not a single executive expressed anything but dismay at her defeat.
Immigration: Maintaining liberal immigration in the U.S is the policy that Google’s executives discussed the most.
Victorious Democrats would also end congressional investigations into the Hillary-Deep State-DNC-Russian-Clinton Foundation collusion and corruption. All the players in these massive, sordid affairs will be deemed “too big to jail” – and too closely tied to the Democratic Party to be investigated further.

“Protect and enrich.” This is a perfect encapsulation of the Clinton Foundation and the Obama book and television deals. Then there is the Biden family corruption, followed closely behind by similar abuses of power and office by the Warren and Sanders families, as Peter Schweizer described in his recent book “Profiles in Corruption.” These names just scratch the surface of government corruption.

Hillary Clinton pops out of the woodwork, warning that Republicans will 'literally steal' the coming elections
As midterms approach, and a shellacking ensues, things are getting mighty paranoid over on the donkey side of the political equation.
This brings us to Hillary Clinton, who's come out of the woods to make a video to rally the Democrat faithful:
"Right wing extremists already have a plan to literally steal the next presidential election," she intoned in that flat, hectoring voice of hers, splitting her infinitive.
It's not an original thought on her. She's been making this claim for years, even as her own party steals elections, as a warning to the Democrat faithful that this is an election they are entitled to win.
Not a word about Democrat failures — from inflation to crime to open borders to Critical Race Theory, not a word about the huge swing seen among Latinos, and lesser swings among young people, Blacks, Asians, suburban women, and others who are now casting votes for Republicans for the first time.
For all her blather about Republicans "literally" stealing elections, she offers not one scintilla of proof that GOP cheating is actually about to go down, based on what's heard on her video.
None of that matters to Hillary, because in her mind, elections aren't free, nor fair, unless the Democrat wins. Democrats alone are entitled to win.
This is what lost her the election to Donald Trump back in 2016, and to her discredit, she didn't stop plotting. For someone so imbued with the entitlement mentality, it stung her ego. So she so badly wanted her loss to Trump to have been a matter of a stolen election and not a problem with her history of corruption, her tendency to fall down, her very bad socialist ideas, her stilted and hectoring delivery, or her insistence that half the electorate are "deplorables."
A lot of entitled Democrats are going with this argument — MSNBC's Nicolle Wallace has called for foreign election observers to judge our elections, so the talking points have gone out.
The paranoia is on.
The "we was robbed" argument she is making now on behalf of some big-money political organization is the exact same one she made in 2016. She hasn't changed a bit. She's still stewing after all these years and almost desperately wants the problems in her party to be a matter of theft, not behavior and policy.
Her act is old now, her claims are tired, and she hasn't learned a thing.

Republican National Committee Sues Google for ‘Throttling’ Fundraise Emails
'Google has relegated millions of RNC emails en masse to potential donors' and supporters' spam folders,' group said in lawsuit

(Reuters)—The Republican National Committee (RNC) filed a lawsuit against Alphabet Inc's Google on Friday for allegedly sending its emails to users' spam folders.
The U.S. political committee accuses the tech giant of "discriminating" against it by "throttling its email messages because of the RNC’s political affiliation and views," according to a lawsuit filed in U.S. District Court in California.
"Google has relegated millions of RNC emails en masse to potential donors’ and supporters’ spam folders during pivotal points in election fundraising and community building," the RNC said in the lawsuit.
Google rejected the claims.
"As we have repeatedly said, we simply don't filter emails based on political affiliation. Gmail’s spam filters reflect users’ actions," Google spokesperson José Castañeda said in a statement. "We provide training and guidelines to campaigns, we recently launched an FEC-approved pilot for political senders, and we continue to work to maximize email deliverability while minimizing unwanted spam," he said, referring to the Federal Election Commission.
Spam filters on email services typically weed out unsolicited "spam" messages and divert them to a separate folder.
The RNC said that for most of the month, nearly all of its emails end up in users’ inboxes but at the end of the month, which is an important time for fund-raising, nearly all of their emails end up in spam folders.
"Critically, and suspiciously, this end of the month period is historically when the RNC’s fundraising is most successful," the lawsuit said, adding that it does not matter whether the email is about donating, voting or community outreach.
The committee said the "discrimination" had been going on for about 10 months despite its best efforts to work with Google.
It said the alleged routing of its emails to spam folders had eaten up revenue and that more money would be lost in coming weeks as midterm elections loom.
Republicans have long accused big tech companies of discriminating against conservative views and suppressing free speech, an assertion tech companies strongly deny.

Social Media Allows Jihadists to Call for Violence and Spread Hate
Social media giants such as Facebook are notorious for censoring anything they label “misinformation” or “offensive,” from the second opinions of doctors during a pandemic, to the pleas of persecuted Christians. Little known, however, is that they also allow hate-filled, radical, and murderous content from Muslim terror groups to post on and make use of their far reaching platforms.
A new study has found that Facebook has failed to catch Islamic State group and al-Shabab extremist content in posts aimed at East Africa as the region remains under threat from violent attacks…. [Facebook] repeatedly failed to act on sensitive content including hate speech in many places around the world.
Even posts calling for violence and murder “in languages including Swahili, Somali and Arabic — were allowed to be widely shared.”
Facebook came under heavy criticism following these. After noting that “Facebook is a business,” Leah Kimathi, a Kenyan consultant in governance, peace and security, added: “The least they can do is ensure that something they’re selling to us is not going to kill us.”
“Why are they [Facebook] not acting on rampant content put up by [the Islamic terrorist group] al-Shabab?” Moustafa Ayad, who worked on the report, asked. “You’d think that after 20 years of dealing with al-Qaida, they’d have a good understanding of the language they [jihadists] use, the symbolism.”
This, of course, is hardly the first time Facebook gets called out. Another report, from nearly a year ago, found that
Facebook allowed photos of beheadings and violent hate speech from ISIS and the Taliban to be tagged as “insightful” and “engaging”… Extremists have turned to the social media platform as a weapon “to promote their hate-filled agenda and rally supporters” on hundreds of groups… These groups have sprouted up across the platform over the last 18 months and vary in size from a few hundred to tens of thousands of members, the review found. One pro-Taliban group created in spring this year and had grown to 107,000 members before it was deleted… Overall, extremist content is “routinely getting through the net,” despite claims from Meta – the company that owns Facebook – that it’s cracking down on extremists. There were reportedly “scores of groups” allowed to operate on Facebook that were supportive of either Islamic State or the Taliban, according to a new report.
Most recently, in late August, 2022, a Muslim man in the UK was found guilty of sharing propaganda videos that glorified Islamic terrorists, including videos made by the Islamic State. Where did he share them, with impunity? On Instagram, WhatsApp, and, of course, Facebook.
Meanwhile, according to a July 11 report, over at YouTube, Apple Music, Spotify, and Amazon Prime, there are “countless” songs, made or sung by “religious fanatics,” that “glorify” the slaughter of anyone who insults Muhammad:
The platforming of dangerous songs calling for the beheading of those accused of “blasphemy” against Prophet Muhammad is a shocking indictment of the music streaming services, highlighting their negligence toward content consumed by millions across the globe and the impact it could have in legitimizing the killings over “blasphemy.”
“YouTube Music,” the report continues, “has the maximum number of songs in this genre,” including one under the title, “We will kill those [who] commit blasphemy in the name of Muhammad. We will create a mountain of dead bodies of those who commit blasphemy.” Written six months after YouTube was notified that it was hosting such songs, the report adds that “no action has been taken by YouTube.”
Needless to say, this issue is significantly worse when one consider non-English or European language content. Over the years, I’ve personally seen countless Arabic-language content on Facebook and other social media giants that amounts to nothing less than terroristic incitement. Usually, these posts remain on social media platforms for years—until, of course, I or others draw attention to them in English-language articles, at which point they are conveniently removed.
In other words, as long as only Muslims see—and are radicalized by—these posts full of hatred and incitement for violence against non-Muslims, social media leave them up. Once a Western audience learns about these posts, which further stand to make Islam look bad, social media take them down.
This, of course is not always the case. For example, in December, 2021, I translated an immensely profane and hate-filled Arabic-language tirade from a New York-based Muslim man against two Christian men from Egypt—a rant that culminates with him loudly threatening decapitation to anyone who “hurts the reputation of Muhammad.” This video, which currently has nearly 110,000 views, is, apparently because it’s only in Arabic, still up on YouTube, though the “warning” that “this video may be inappropriate for some users” now accompanies it.
Despite the leniency shown to Islamic terrorist content, social media, especially Facebook, are notoriously quick to censor content that exposes the jihadists. This it calls “hate speech” or “offensive content.” In one especially stark example, Facebook censored the campaign of a charity that sought to draw attention to the plight of Christian women in Muslim nations.
Similarly, Facebook earlier banned—and continues shadow banning—me, for posts that report on Muslims persecuting Christians, which Facebook characterized as “going against our Community Standards.”
YouTube censored my Prager U video on that exact topic; it also once temporarily banned me for uploading and sharing a video of Islamic State members destroying crosses and desecrating churches in Syria and Iraq—even though that video was not “graphic” (it depicted buildings and crosses, inanimate objects)—not to mention I had come across it on an Arabic language YouTube account.
And while Islamic extremist groups managed to get away with posting “pornographic images” on social media, some U.S. Wi-Fi networks ban my website, which is devoted to the Islamic question, on grounds that it is “pornography.”
Such is the true extent of the problem posed by the social media giants: not only do they, as many already know, censor those who say anything that goes against the narrative, in this case by exposing Islamic hate and violence; they also allow Islamic hate and violence to proliferate and radicalize Muslims, who go on to murder “infidels.”

Is the Biden administration meddling with the midterm elections?
Biden's Executive Order 14019 asked all 600 federal agencies to “consider ways to expand citizens’ opportunities to register to vote and to obtain information about, and participate in, the electoral process.”
The Federalist’s Mollie Hemingway has carried reports about this.
Was Biden misusing the federal government to conduct an unconstitutional “get out the vote” effort or was something more ominous afoot?
Many groups, including GOP groups, demanded more details about the scope of Biden’s order, but those demands fell on deaf ears.
The Foundation for Government Accountability (FGA) filed several Freedom of Information Act (FOIA) requests relating to the order. The FGA sued the DOJ back in April after its officials failed to respond. Finally, the DOJ handed over some of its records to FGA just last month.
As expected, the documents were heavily redacted. This is a standard ploy when governments want to conceal information from the public. Also absent was the DOJ’s 15-page “strategic plan” on how the agency intends to comply with Biden’s executive order.
In response to the court order, the DOJ filed a motion for summary judgment with the U.S. Middle District Court of Florida in an attempt to conceal communication records related to Executive Order 14019.
In their legal filing, Biden’s DOJ argued that they had “submitted a reasonably specific declaration” in response to FGA’s request.
The DOJ claimed documents related to their strategic plan was “within the scope of the presidential communications privilege” so they had to withhold and redact.
Another ludicrous excuse was that disclosure would reveal “a full range of options, plans, or propositions for future potential actions” and could cause "public confusion” because "it contains many proposed actions that the public might construe as future commitments, past actions, or provisions already in place.”
What a picture this is.
First, they redact and withhold, then they claim “presidential communications privilege,” and when all flimsy excuses are exhausted, they blame the citizens for being too vacuous to understand their documents.
Going down the road of absurdity, they could even claim that KGB agents are interfering with the midterm elections so their secrecy is essential.
The question is whom among the electorate will the government target to ‘expand citizens’ opportunities to register to vote’?
What if they conduct registration drives for only those groups that are likely to vote Democrat?
What if they begin registering pro-Democrat non-citizens?
What if voter identification is made optional?
What if there is subliminal pro-Democrat messaging during the registration drives – banners and talk about climate change, abortion, BLM, etc.?
What if the government collaborates with private organizations to facilitate transportation to the polling booth or ballot-harvesters to the home, on election day? They could claim it is for select impoverished areas and only for the elderly and the disabled. But who decides which areas apply?
What if the government engages in door-to-door visits to ‘obtain information’ and verify election documents on certain groups of voters? Once the verification is complete, the citizens are paid visits by activists who engage in campaign talk.
What if the government targets those Democrat voters who are disgusted by Biden’s misgovernance and hence decide to abstain from voting?
In a democracy, voting is a right, a right doesn’t always have to be exercised. A voter can register a protest by not voting. The question is will Biden officials hound these people and compel them to vote?
Will mail-in votes still be allowed and will federal agents or 'activists' "assist" people in filling in their mail-in ballots?
The Biden administration can answer all questions by being transparent about the Executive Order.
But instead they are engaging in obfuscation and delay tactics.
People have a right to be concerned.
People know that when matters go against the Democrats' wishes, Democrats alter sacrosanct rules that have existed for ages.
When Trump won the election in 2016, instead of accepting the results and introspecting, they rejected the results and claimed Trump won by colluding with Russia.
Next, they managed the appointment of a Special Counsel despite the GOP being in control of the Senate, the House, and the White House. The probe proceeded for around two years and hung like a sword over the Trump administration. It probably cost the GOP the House in 2019. They also blamed low-information or bigoted MAGA voters for their losses when they happened.
When the Democrats lost twice to George W. Bush, they talked about abolishing the Electoral College. These talk revived after their 2016 defeat when Hillary Clinton ran for president.
The Democrats have abused their power in the executive and legislative branch to hound and persecute President Trump because he could win back the White House in 2024. Never before has a former president been targeted in such a manner.
When social media platforms provided a forum for citizens to express themselves freely, Democrats decided that could affect the 2016 elections, so they colluded with Big Tech to suppress all dissenting views in 2020 and during the COVID-19 pandemic.
The list of systemic changes the Democrats have either accomplished or are attempting is endless.
The mainstream news media functions like the PR wing for the Democrats while government agencies have been politized. Hence they know that nobody will call them out and challenge their abuse of power and corruption.
The Democrats know that retaining power in the legislative branch is the only way to prevent Trump from running in 2024 and to prevent investigations regarding Biden's scandals and misgovernance, Dr. Anthony Fauci and his pandemic profiteering, and numerous instances of Democrat abuses of power and corruption.
The poll numbers and the mood of the nation show that the Democrats are on track to receive a routing during the midterms. The only way the Democrats can retain power is to meddle with the rules and play foul behind the scenes.
They managed this during previous election, i.e., the 2020 presidential election, on many levels.

Many states altered their voting procedures mere months prior to the election, citing the COVID-19 pandemic as an excuse. Mass ballot-harvesting and widespread vote-by-mail resulted in many accounts of misplaced, displaced, duplicate and fraudulent ballots cast.
In the end, an unprecedented 69% of voters cast their votes either by mail and/or before Election Day.
Recent polling from ABC/Ipsos shows that an astounding 41 percent of Americans, across party lines, are not confident about the integrity of the country’s elections.
If that number grows, there will come a day when a majority of citizens wont trust any elections within America. That will lead to anarchy.

FIFTEEN THINGS YOU SHOULD KNOW ABOUT LA RAZA “THE RACE”
by Michelle Malkin
Only in America could critics of a group called "The Race" be labeled racists. Such is the triumph of left-wing identity chauvinists, whose aggressive activists and supine abettors have succeeded in redefining all opposition as "hate."
Both Barack Obama and John McCain will speak this week in San Diego at the annual conference of the National Council of La Raza, the Latino organization whose name is Spanish for, yes, "The Race." Can you imagine Obama and McCain paying homage to a group of white people who called themselves that? No matter. The presidential candidates and the media have legitimized "The Race" as a mainstream ethnic lobbying group and marginalized its critics as intolerant bigots. The unvarnished truth is that the group is a radical ethnic nationalist outfit that abuses your tax dollars and milks PC politics to undermine our sovereignty (MORE BELOW).

Analysis conducted last year reveal that 71 percent of tech workers in Silicon Valley are foreign-born (DATED FIGURES), while the tech industry in the San Francisco, Oakland, and Hayward area is made up of 50 percent foreign-born tech workers.
Despite his Wall Street, big business, Big Tech, and billionaire donations, Biden has attempted to portray himself as a small-town fighter from Scranton, Pennsylvania.
By failures of border security, a lack of the enforcement of our immigration laws from within the interior of the United States and huge numbers of visas for high tech workers, the lives and livelihoods of Americans and their children, are being stolen by America’s corrupt political elite who are doing the bidding of those who provide them with huge “Campaign Contributions” (Orwellian euphemism for bribes) pursue legislation that is diametrically opposed to the best interests of America and Americans.

18 Days Out: Facebook Allows Story About Landscapers Finding a Buried Car to Trend, Not News Vital to Midterm Elections
With only 18 days left until the 2022 midterm elections, the top five news stories that Facebook is pushing to its users include Diwali becoming an official holiday in New York City schools and landscapers finding a car buried in a yard. Meanwhile, the issues that matter to voters are not chosen by Mark Zuckerberg’s algorithm to trend on the platform.
Facebook CEO Mark Zuckerberg is allowing trivial news stories to trend as “top” stories while the United States is plagued with inflation, an illegal migration crisis, crime waves, and the deadly fentanyl drug making its way across the country’s southern border.
According to analytics firm NewsWhip, the top five trending news stories for a 12-hour window on Friday morning include the following headlines:
1) Diwali will be honored as an official holiday in New York City schools
Diwali, a holiday known as the “Festival of Lights” and celebrated primarily in South Asia and the Caribbean, will become an official school holiday in New York City, local leadership announced Thursday.
“Today, South Asian and Indo-Caribbean families, like mine, all over this city have made incredible contributions, and today I am proud to say our time has come,” said New York state assemblywoman Jenifer Rajkumar, who introduced the legislation. “The time has come to recognize over 200,000 New Yorkers of the Hindu, Buddhist, Sikh, and Jain faiths who celebrate Diwali, the Festival of Lights.”
2) Appeals court to Lindsey Graham: Time to testify in election probe
It was nearly four months ago when a special grand jury hearing evidence in an investigation into possible 2020 election interference in Georgia issued subpoenas to several people close to Donald Trump — including Republican Sen. Lindsey Graham. As regular readers may recall, almost immediately thereafter, the South Carolinian’s lawyers said Graham didn’t intend to honor the legal summons.
What followed was a series of court cases in which the GOP lawmaker fought tooth and nail to avoid testifying in the case. As NBC News reported, Graham’s efforts keep failing.
3) Steve Bannon will be sentenced Friday for flouting House Jan 6. panel
Former Trump political adviser Steve Bannon heads to a federal courthouse in Washington, D.C., Friday, where he’ll be sentenced for criminal contempt of Congress.
Bannon flouted demands for documents and testimony from the panel investigating the Jan. 6, 2021, attack on the U.S. Capitol. Lawmakers on the House Select Committee wanted to know why he said a day before the siege that “all hell is going to break loose tomorrow.”
4) Landscapers find car buried decades ago in the yard of San Francisco Bay area home
A car was found buried Thursday in the yard of a home in the affluent town of Atherton in the San Francisco Bay Area, police said.
Landscapers working in the yard discovered the car around 8:50 a.m. It had been buried below 4 to 5 feet of dirt and was thought to have been there since the 1990s, police said.
5) Elon Musk plans to slash 75% of Twitter workforce: Report
The Blaze reports Facebook’s fifth trending story:
Elon Musk plans to cut nearly 75% of Twitter employees after the long-awaited deal to take over the social media company is consummated, according to a report.
Musk allegedly informed prospective investors that he plans to slash Twitter’s staff by nearly 75%, according to the Washington Post. The Tesla CEO is expected to cull Twitter’s employee count from 7,500 to 2,000, according to internal discussions and documents.
Facebook’s algorithm is allowing these headlines to trend as the top five stories, just 18 days ahead of the midterm elections, revealing the company’s intention to keep the issues that really matter out of the social media feeds of American voters.
Polls suggest that Americans are concerned with other topics. A Politico/Morning Consult poll published this week found that 93 percent of registered voters are worried about soaring inflation and the poor economy.
Here are five Breitbart headlines that could be trending on Facebook, if the company’s algorithms didn’t actively suppress the news impacting our nation.
1) Clyburn: We ‘Knew’ ‘Recovery Program’ Would Cause Inflation, ‘I Resent’ Those Who’d Rather Have Cheaper Gas than Jobs and Education
On Thursday’s broadcast of MSNBC’s “Jose Diaz-Balart Reports,” House Majority Whip Rep. James Clyburn (D-SC) stated that “all of us knew” prices would increase “when we put in place this recovery program. Any time you put more money into the economy, prices tend to rise.” Clyburn also stated that President Joe Biden put kids back in school and has ensured schools are “getting fixed up for climate change” and said, “I resent people who feel that we would much rather not have jobs and education so long as we can pay ten cents less for a gallon of gasoline.”
Clyburn said, “Well, let me make it very clear, all of us are concerned about these rising costs. And all of us knew this would be the case when we put in place this recovery program. Any time you put more money into the economy, prices tend to rise. And we do know that price gouging takes place. … We knew that the moment we went to aid the Ukrainians, the Russians would do what they could possibly do to undercut this administration. So, they cut this deal with the OPEC nations to reduce the production of oil so as to drive the price of gasoline up.”
2) Democrat Midterm Pitch: Republicans Want to Take Away ‘Your Girlfriend’s IUD’
Democrats appear to have chosen abortion and contraception as their last-minute effort to materialize support ahead of the midterms.
After the overturn of infamous abortion case Roe v. Wade, Democrats including President Joe Biden have joined a rallying cry to make abortion legal nationally, emphasizing the “chaos and heartache” of not being able to kill unborn children.
3) Klain: GOP Wanted Us to Lower Gas Prices, Now They’re Saying SPR Should Be for Emergencies Only
On Thursday’s broadcast of MSNBC’s “Morning Joe,” White House Chief of Staff Ron Klain responded to criticisms by Republicans that the Strategic Petroleum Reserve should only be used for emergencies and that President Joe Biden is using it for political purposes by stating that he can’t take Republicans seriously because “we had Republicans say, hey, he needs to do something about gas prices, and then we did something about gas prices, and they’re, like, well, don’t do that.” And that Biden has been releasing from the reserve for the past year, which has lowered prices.
4) CDC Panel Unanimously Votes in Favor of Recommending Coronavirus Vaccine to Child Immunization Schedule
A U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) panel on Thursday unanimously voted in favor of including the coronavirus vaccine on a child’s routine immunization schedule, stoking concerns among critics who fear states and localities will enforce the recommendation.
In a 15-0 vote, the U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention’s Advisory Committee on Immunization Practices voted in favor of adding the Chinese coronavirus jab to the federal health agency’s formal list of immunization recommendations for children. It should be noted that the vaccine recommendations do not have any actual staying power, but many states and local jurisdictions have, in the past, enforced the CDC’s recommendations, as seen with universal masking throughout the Chinese coronavirus pandemic.
5) Exclusive: Konnech, Now Accused of Storing U.S. Poll Worker Data in China, Once Contracted with Pentagon to Help Soldiers Cast Ballots
Konnech, the Michigan-based election software management company whose CEO was recently arrested for allegedly storing the personal data of poll workers on servers located in China, contracted with the Department of Defense to manage election logistics for service members Breitbart News has confirmed.
Eugene Yu was arrested by the Los Angeles County District Attorney’s Office on October 4th in connection with the purported theft of personally identifiable information of county poll workers whose data was allegedly discovered on servers in the People’s Republic of China. Konnech’s software, the PollChief Election Worker Management System, was used by LA County and many other counties in the United States to manage, pay and communicate with election poll workers. LA County asserts Konnech “was supposed to securely maintain the data and that only United States citizens and permanent residents have access to it,” but said that information has been discovered on Chinese servers.
Breitbart News will continue to report on Facebook’s algorithm in the lead up to the 2022 Midterm elections.
A Swedish court has found an Afghan migrant guilty of raping a woman and pushing her down a mine shaft, sentencing the 41-year-old to “life” for rape and attempted murder.
Afghan migrant Taher Amini was sentenced to “life” — actually likely to be 20 to 25 years, theoretically followed by deportation — by the Västmanland District Court on Friday after he raped a woman and threw her down a mine shaft in Långgruvan outside Norberg in April.
Amini drove with the victim shortly before the incident and stated that he wanted to marry her, with the victim later theorising he was motivated by wanting a Swedish residency permit. He then took the victim to the wooded area and proceeded to rape her before throwing her down the mine shaft, Aftonbladetreports.
After noticing the victim had survived the fall into the nearly 80-foot-deep pit, he attempted to kill her twice by throwing rocks down the shaft.
Hours later, the woman was discovered by a passerby. The court said she would have likely died within a day if she had not been found, justifying the “life” sentence against the Afghan despite the fact the woman survived the ordeal.
“This, taken together with the plaintiff’s suffering and death anxiety, means that the penalty value of the attempted murder is very close to what would have applied if the plaintiff had died. Since the man is also convicted of aggravated rape, we have found that the penalty should be life imprisonment,” District Court Judge Johan Alvner stated.
Amini came to Sweden in 2015, during the height of the migrant crisis and the Swedish Migration Agency rejected his application two years later, ordering his deportation. The Afghan appealed the decision and was rejected again, and a court later ruled to not grant leave to appeal again — but he was still not actually removed from the country.
Amini is said to have been previously married with three children but his wife had been and is currently missing. The Afghan has denied killing his former wife and denied attempting to murder the woman he threw down the mine shaft.
His lawyer announced he will be appealing the verdict in the case — which is just the latest high-profile crime to involve an Afghan migrant perpetrator in Sweden.
One previous incident just one year ago saw another Afghan go on a mass stabbing spree in the town of Vetlanda, claiming he did so because a person angered him by saying God did not exist.
Another year prior, a 21-year-old murder victim was attacked by a trio of Afghan migrants — a man and his two sons — who chased him onto a bus and stabbed him around 99 times.

As Predicted, Mayorkas Grants Amnesty-Lite to Visa-Less Afghans
TPS designation was inevitable after last fall’s mass parole effort
Department of Homeland Security (DHS) Secretary Alejandro Mayorkas designated Afghanistan for Temporary Protected Status (TPS) for 18 months just six months after I predicted he would. This piece isn’t to brag about being right, I wish I weren’t, but to show how Mayorkas and the Biden administration orchestrated the mass importation of visa-less Afghans into the country to ensure they will never have to return home.
Last year’s chaotic military withdrawal from Afghanistan resulted in countless U.S. citizens and lawful permanent residents (LPRs) being stranded while the Biden administration allowed nearly 100,000 un-vetted, visa-less, and mostly working-age male Afghans onto planes destined for United States soil. The administration and its supporters in the media tried to allay concerns of the American people by claiming that these Afghans are refugees or heroic interpreters eligible for Special Immigrant Visa (SIVs), but that was largely untrue.
Phase one of amnesty-lite occurred when Mayorkas unlawfully used parole in a categorical manner to allow these Afghans into the country, immediately making them eligible for work permits. As I scooped back on September 9, Biden political appointees ordered U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services (USCIS) adjudicators to approve the work permits before lengthy national security and background checks could be run, and “resolve” derogatory information later. As a direct result of this policy decision, a number of these Afghan “parolees” have committed heinous crimes against Americans, including rape.
Phase two was the intentionally delayed decision to designate Afghanistan for TPS. As I wrote in the Newsweek op-ed, “If the Biden administration truly believed Afghanistan satisfied the requirement for TPS, Secretary Mayorkas would have announced that decision shortly after the withdrawal debacle. ... The Biden administration will continue its charade of SIV vetting for a few weeks to deflect attention. But it is not a question of ‘if,’ but ‘when’ Afghanistan will receive the TPS designation.”
With the American people sufficiently distracted by Ukraine-Russia, inflation, and other matters, Mayorkas pulled the trigger on amnesty-lite. A quote attributed to Mayorkas in the press release says, “Under this designation, TPS will also provide additional protections and assurances to trusted partners and vulnerable Afghans who supported the U.S. military, diplomatic, and humanitarian missions in Afghanistan over the last 20 years.” Considering the Department of Defense Inspector General’s Office just issued a chilling indictment of Afghan vetting, the use of “trusted partners” to describe this population seems dishonest. Additionally, if these Afghans meaningfully assisted in the war effort or were established as fleeing persecution, they would already be eligible for SIV or refugee status, thus making TPS unnecessary.
Most do not, underscoring how irresponsible it was for the Biden administration to rush them all into the country un-vetted instead of vetting the evacuees in a safe location somewhere closer to Afghanistan. If the Biden administration had chosen this path, only properly vetted and eligible Afghans would have been allowed into the United States.
Instead, it appears that the mass evacuation plan was intentionally designed to create a notable visa-less Afghan population in the country and reward them with TPS to ensure they never have to return to their home country. Or, as I framed it in the concluding sentence of my op-ed, “When [the TPS designation is made], the mass evacuation of Afghans at the expense of stranded Americans will have only resulted in the further erosion of our immigration laws.”
The press release fails to provide an estimate of the population expected to benefit from TPS. Assuming the estimate is included in the Federal Register notice, it would not surprise me if the total is nearly identical to the number of evacuees believed to have been categorically paroled into the country last fall.
As Mayorkas continues to aggressively designate countries for TPS, it is fair to wonder what illegal alien population won’t have amnesty-lite by the end of the Biden administration.
Big banks, Big Pharma, and giant tech corporations have
teamed up with President Joe Biden’s administration to
resettle tens of thousands of Afghans across the United States
over the next year.
Biden’s massive Afghan resettlement operation plans to bring at least 95,000 Afghans to the U.S. for resettlement across 46 states.
The Afghans are initially flown into Philadelphia International Airport in Pennsylvania or Dulles International Airport in Virginia before temporarily living on various U.S. military bases while awaiting resettlement. Today, more than 55,000 Afghans remain temporarily living at U.S. bases in Wisconsin, Texas, New Mexico, Indiana, New Jersey, and Virginia.
This week, Biden issued a list of the multinational corporations working with his administration to help resettle the Afghans across the U.S., including JP Morgan Chase, the U.S. Chamber of Commerce, Bain Capital, Google, Starbucks, and a number of airlines.
In addition to the corporate partnership, a new non-governmental organization (NGO) backed by former Presidents Bill Clinton, George W. Bush, and Barack Obama is working closely with the Biden administration on Afghan resettlement.
The NGO seeks to facilitate corporate commitments to refugee resettlement with the goal of funneling Afghans into American jobs.
Refugee resettlement costs taxpayers nearly $9 billion every five years. Over the course of a lifetime, taxpayers pay about $133,000 per refugee and within five years of resettlement, roughly 16 percent will need taxpayer-funded housing assistance.
Over the last 20 years, nearly a million refugees have been resettled in the nation — more than double the number of residents living in Miami, Florida, and it would be the equivalent of annually adding the population of Pensacola, Florida.

Joe Biden Expands ‘Disaster Migrant’ Population to 530,000
President Joe Biden’s advisers have granted temporary legal status to roughly 30,000 Ethiopians now living in the United States.
The award of Temporary Protected Status (TPS) was announced Friday as Ethiopia’s government continues a disastrous war against a non-Ethiopian ethnic group in the Tigray region of the country.
“The United States recognizes the ongoing armed conflict and the extraordinary and temporary conditions engulfing Ethiopia, and DHS is committed to providing temporary protection [for 18 months] to those in need,” said a statement from Alejandro Mayorkas, the pro-migration secretary of the Department of Homeland Security. The statement added:
Ethiopian nationals currently residing in the U.S. who cannot safely return due to conflict-related violence and a humanitarian crisis involving severe food shortages, flooding, drought, and displacement, will be able to remain and work in the United States until conditions in their home country improve.

The protection will help 30,000 Ethiopians, according to a September 30 letter sent to Mayorkas by a variety of pro-migration groups, including the American Immigration Lawyers Association. The letter said:
The current crisis in Ethiopia … has been marked by violence against civilians in conflict, ethnic cleansing, destruction of public infrastructure, including health care facilities and schools, arbitrary arrests, torture, sexual and [sex]-based violence as a weapon of war, and weaponization of food, medicine, and fuel …
Throughout 2021 and 2022, at least six million people across the Amhara, Tigray, and Afar regions have been cut off from access to adequate food, health care, fuel, banking services, communications with the outside world, and other basic needs.
The TPS program has been abused by several presidents to quietly import and keep many foreign workers, renters, and consumers in the United States.
This TPS program policy is just one element of the federal Extraction Migration economic strategy. That strategy aids investors by cutting Americans’ wages and by boosting housing prices. It also pushes up inflation for a wide variety of goods, such as used autos and food.
The TPS program already keeps roughly 500,000 foreigners in the United States, including some who arrived as illegals in the 1980s and 1990s. The migrants were first given TPS when their home nations were hit by disastrous volcano eruptions, floods, famines, or wars.
The 500,000 number does not include the TPS grantees who have already won green cards, nor does it include their U.S.-born children.
President Donald Trump did not extend some of the TPS grants that had been repeatedly extended by prior presidents. The extensions were often granted long after the original disasters had been overcome. But Trump was stopped by lawsuits and Biden’s election.
Since January 2021, Biden has welcomed roughly four million illegal migrants, visa workers, and legal immigrants. He has also imported many additional people from Venezuela, Ukraine, and Afghanistan, and has approved multiple additional TPS designations for Venezuelans, Haitians, and Cameroonians, for example.
The large population helps to push down wages and boost housing costs for Americans — and also to push Americans out of the labor market.
Extraction Migration
It is easier for government officials to grow the economy by immigration than by growing exports, productivity, or the birth rate.
So Washington, DC, deliberately extracts millions of migrants from poor countries and uses them as extra workers, consumers, and renters.
This extraction migration policy both grows and skews the national economy.
Extraction migration slows innovation and shrinks Americans’ productivity. This happens because migration allows employers to boost stock prices by using stoop labor and disposable workers instead of the skilled American professionals and productivity-boosting technology that earlier allowed Americans and their communities to earn more money.
Migration undermines employees’ workplace rights, and it widens the regional economic gaps between the Democrats’ cheap-labor coastal states and the Republicans’ heartland and southern states.
An economy fueled by extraction migration also drains Americans’ political clout over elites and it alienates young people. It radicalizes Americans’ democratic civic culture because it gives a moral excuse for wealthy elites and progressives to ignore despairing Americans at the bottom of society, such as drug addicts.
This diversify-and-rule investor strategy is enthusiastically pushed by progressives. They wish to transform the U.S. from a society governed by European-origin civic culture into an economic empire of jealous identity groups overseen by progressive hall-monitors. “We’re trying to become the first multiracial, multi-ethnic superpower in the world,” Rep. Rohit Khanna (D-CA) told the New York Times in March 2022. “It will be an extraordinary achievement … We will ultimately triumph,” he boasted.
But the progressives’ colonialism-like economic strategy kills many migrants. It exploits the poverty of migrants and splits foreign families as it extracts human resources from poor home countries to serve wealthy U.S. investors.
Progressives hide this extraction migration economic policy behind a wide variety of noble-sounding explanations and theatrical border security programs. Progressives claim the U.S. is a “Nation of Immigrants,” that economic migrants are political victims, that migration helps migrants more than Americans, and that the state must renew itself by replacing populations.
Similarly, establishment Republicans, media businesses, and major GOP donors hide the skew towards investors by ignoring the pocketbook impact and by touting border chaos, welfare spending, migrant crime, and drug smuggling.
