The Morning Report — 10/8/24
Good Morning Kids. With parts of the southeast and Florida still reeling from Hurricane Helene and the institutional and intentional ineptitude of the Federal bureaucracy to provide adequate relief to those affected by it, we have a monstrous, upwards of a category 5 storm in the Gulf of Mexico poised to hit Florida tomorrow at or near the Tampa area. Please, if you or your loved ones are anywhere near where this might make landfall and its path thereafter, evacuate as soon as possible. The proclamation of the Mayor of Tampa, that "If You Choose to Stay You Are Going to Die" might be a tad on the overly dramatic to hyperbolic side. Nevertheless, I think we all should be well aware by now the kind of damage and suffering a hurricane can inflict on those in its path, especially those who live or have lived most of their lives in areas that are prone to them.
Not to worry, your government is on the job!
Homeland Security Secretary Alejandro Mayorkas reportedly went on a luxury shopping spree in Georgetown this weekend as residents across southern Appalachia continue to beg for emergency supplies.
“Mayorkas, who was impeached by the House of Representatives earlier this year for his handling of the border crisis, was spotted by the Washington Free Beacon strolling through the mens section of Sid Mashburn, a high-end menswear store, surrounded by security,” the Washington Free Beacon reported Saturday. “He appeared to purchase some items at the store, where suit jackets go for as much as three thousand dollars.” The Beacon noted that there are still more than 170,000 power outages in North Carolina “alone” and the death toll from Hurricane Helene stands at 227. Residents across flooded out regions of southern Appalachia, however, have been left without immediate disaster relief from the Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA), an agency Mayorkas oversees as part of the Department of Homeland Security. “They desperately need oxygen for stranded home-bound seniors. They need food, clean water, and shelter,” The Federalist’s Matt Kittle reported Friday. “Sadly, they also need bodybags.”
Residents have “been literally begging FEMA officials for critical supplies.”
Senator Tommy Tuberville didn't mince words when he said that "People Should Be Going to Jail This is Treason."
Considering what has been done to this country by Obama and his puppets, jail is putting it mildly, especially when using a word like "treason." With an erased border and zero immigration controls with violent criminals flooding in by the millions, including Islamic terrorists among the rapists, thugs, murderers, human traffickers and house-pet roasters.
bombshell letter written by the deputy director for U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) recently revealed that there are a staggering 425,431 noncitizen convicted criminals as well as 222,141 noncitizens with pending criminal charges on the agency’s non-detained docket.
These numbers pertain to any illegal immigrant released from detention into the interior of the United States with either final deportation orders or those awaiting an immigration court hearing. If that wasn’t bad enough, it gets much worse once you drill down into the numbers, as approximately 13,000 illegal immigrants on the non-detained docket have been convicted of homicide, 1,845 are currently facing homicide charges, and 16,000 have been convicted of sexual assault.
These alarming statistics challenge the narrative promoted by immigration advocates that immigrants are “less likely to commit crimes than U.S.-born citizens.”
That said, every crime committed by an illegal immigrant, beginning with the initial act of unlawfully entering the country, is an event that should never have occurred. Consequently, any criminal activity that follows is entirely preventable had proper immigration enforcement been in place from the start.
This includes heinous crimes like the killing of 12-year-old Jocelyn Nungaray allegedly by two Venezuelan nationals who had recently entered the United States illegally but were released into the interior of the country. Or the rape and murder of Rachel Morin, a mother of five, allegedly by an illegal immigrant from El Salvador, who is also accused of murder in his home country in addition to raping a mother and her 9-year-old daughter in Los Angeles. There are also the tens of thousands of Americans killed every year by the fentanyl flowing across our border.
These crimes, as well as the added stress that mass immigration puts on local infrastructure and our national culture, are entirely preventable if our ruling elites valued U.S. sovereignty and the safety of its citizens. Instead, the basic tenets of nationhood have been cast aside and the damage has been exasperated under the Biden-Harris Junta.
Today, the total foreign-born or immigrant population (legal and illegal) is estimated to be approximately 51.6 million, an increase of around 6.6 million since Biden and Harris took office. Of that, 51.6 million, approximately 16.8 million are illegal aliens. All told, immigrants now represent 15.6 percent of the U.S. population — the highest in history.
that and the decriminalization of crime itself along with an economic policy that has put us trillions in debt while nearly strangling the lifeblood of our economy; the petrochemical industry in chasing the myth of green energy utopia. That and a foreign policy that is leading us to the brink of armageddon.
Now perhaps with the cover of two hurricanes, the powers hat be have enough of a smokescreen to try to steal enough ballots in NC, Florida, and of course Georgia.
Come on, you knew this was coming. Never let a crisis go to waste. Instead of providing immediate aid, the Biden-Harris administration worsened the crisis in North Carolina. Because a crisis justifies setting aside election rules.
North Carolina’s election board voted Monday to give residents in the western part of the state, which was hit hardest by Hurricane Helene, greater flexibility to vote by mail and run their elections.
Voters in 13 counties heavily affected by the storm will have more ways to obtain and deliver absentee ballots, while county boards will have more ability to modify their election administration plans. The changes, approved by unanimous vote of the bipartisan board, come 10 days before early voting begins in the battleground state and as mail voting is already underway.
Voters in those counties who want to cast ballots by mail will be able to request and receive them in person until Nov. 4, the day before Election Day, rather than the Tuesday before, under the usual rules. They will also be able to drop off their ballots at any county board of elections in the state or any polling sites in their counties. Previously, voters were limited to dropping absentee ballots off at the board of elections or early voting sites in their counties.
Can they pull off a quickie steal? Remember, they're from the government and they're here to help — help, themselves.
Before Helene hit, and G-d forbid whatever the aftermath of Milton may bring, it certainly seemed as if Trump was on his way to pulling out the "W," the rigging and shenanigans already going on notwithstanding. The Democrats are seemingly in deep doo-doo with a number of their core constituencies and some of their so-called Blue Wall states were even in play. So, if the powers that be can take advantage of a situation like two convenient hurricanes to try and pull off a steal where it might not have happened otherwise, this is to be expected.
Have a good day, and please stay safe! From Hurricanes? It's a snap. From criminals and thugs unleashed on us by the criminal DC junta, not so much.

- CNN host John Berman, on “CNN News Central,” played audio of Trump telling radio host Hugh Hewitt on Monday that “we got a lot of bad genes in our country right now” while discussing the roughly 13,000 illegal immigrant murderers reportedly in the United States, soliciting Mills’ reaction.

- Mrs. Trump described how these actions not only affected her personally but also had far-reaching consequences on her charitable work. Political bias has also had a more general impact on her capacity to do good works—for instance, a university initially accepted her donations to support scholarships for foster children but later refused them after realizing she was the funding source. “They didn’t want to do business with me because of my political affiliation,” she said.

- Since launching her campaign, the vice president has continuously avoided national press and hard-hitting interviews as she takes a tour through non-traditional media this week. Democrats, including some of the vice president’s own staffers, expressed concern to Politico that Harris’ avoidant media strategy and light campaign schedule could backfire in the final weeks of the campaign. Since that panic, Harris appeared on Alex Cooper’s “Call Her Daddy” and is also expected this week to appear on “60 Minutes,” “The View,” “The Late Show With Stephen Colbert” and “The Howard Stern Show.”
