Because the ground invasion wasn’t enough, the Biden Administration has been flying illegal aliens into American cities, wages for Americans are down, San Francisco continues inching toward sanity, some crime news, and Fisker looks farked. It’s the Friday LinkSwarm!<\/p>\n

  • “Bombshell Report Reveals Biden Has Secretly Flown 320,000 Illegals INTO The United States<\/a>.”
    \n

    A Freedom of Information Act lawsuit has revealed that the Biden administration has flown at least 320,000 migrants into the United States in an effort to reduce the number of crossings at the southern border, according to Todd Bensman of the Center for Immigration Studies.<\/p>\n

    “The program at the center of the FOIA litigation is perhaps the most enigmatic and least-known of the Biden administration\u2019s uses of the CBP One cellphone scheduling app, even though it is responsible for almost invisibly importing by air 320,000 aliens with no legal right to enter the United States since it got underway in late 2022,” wrote Bensman.<\/p>\n

    Customs and Border Protection (CBP) had initially refused to disclose information about the flights, which use a cell phone app, CBP One, to arrange.<\/p>\n

    “Under these legally dubious parole programs, aliens who cannot legally enter the country use the CBP One app to apply for travel authorization and temporary humanitarian release from those airports. The parole program allows for two-year periods of legal status during which adults are eligible for work authorization,” Bensman continues.<\/p>\n

    The flights resulted in illegal immigrants being placed in at least 43 American cities from January through December 2023.<\/p>\n

    Under the terms of their release, migrants are able to remain in the US for two years without obtaining legal status, and are meanwhile eligible for work authorization.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

    How many Americans realized they were voting for this invasion when they voted for Biden?<\/p>\n

    A new witness could testify Fani Willis warned lover Nathan Wade\u2019s former business partner to stay quiet about their affair, an explosive new court filing claims.<\/p>\n

    \u201cThey are coming after us. You don\u2019t need to talk to them about anything about us,\u201d Willis is alleged to have warned Terrence Bradley in a September 2023 phone call.<\/p>\n

    The call was overheard by Cobb County, Georgia, prosecutor Cindi Lee Yeager, according to court papers filed Monday by Trump co-defendant David Schafer.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

  • The tide continues to turn in San Francisco<\/a>. “‘Progressivism Is Out’: San Franciscans Pass Ballot Measures Requiring Drug Testing for Welfare, Expanding Police Surveillance.”
    \n

    San Francisco voters who\u2019ve grown tired of the crime, homelessness, and drug use plaguing their left-wing city overwhelmingly approved a pair of ballot measures on Tuesday that will expand police powers and require welfare recipients to be screened for drugs.<\/p>\n

    Proposition E, which authorizes police to use surveillance equipment \u2014 cameras, drones, and even facial-recognition technology \u2014 without prior permission from an oversight body, passed with 59,818 votes, or 59.9 percent. The proposition will also loosen restrictions on police chases and require that officers spend less time on paperwork and administrative duties.<\/p>\n

    Proposition F, which mandates that anyone receiving public-assistance benefits be screened for a substance-abuse disorder, passed with 63,295 votes, or 63 percent.<\/p>\n

    As part of the proposition, public-assistance recipients found to be drug-dependent could be offered treatment. If it is made \u201cavailable at no cost, the recipient will be required to participate to continue receiving\u201d public benefits, according to the proposition.<\/p>\n

    \u201cProgressivism is out\u2014for now,\u201d the San Francisco Chronicles\u2019 website read in bold letters on Wednesday morning, \u201cVoters make it clear: S.F. can no longer be called a progressive city.\u201d<\/p>\n

    The approval of both propositions was a big win for San Francisco\u2019s embattled mayor, London Breed, who placed both measures on the primary ballot in an effort to tamp down on crime and to take aim at drug addiction and overdose deaths in the city. She told reporters on Tuesday that passage of the two measure will allow her administration to \u201ccontinue the work we\u2019re doing\u201d to improve public safety, according to the Chronicle.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

    With San Francisco turning slightly sane, Austin may vie with Seattle, New York and Chicago for the title of America’s Most Insane Radical Leftwing City. <\/p>\n

    3. Department of Health and Human Services<\/p>\n

    In June 2023, The Daily Signal\u2019s Fred Lucas reported that the Indian Health Service (IHS), which falls under the Department of Health and Human Services, is collaborating with the ACLU, Demos, and several other left-wing organizations to register new voters. In order to expand the reach of these efforts, the Biden administration designated an Arizona-based Indian Health Service (IHS) facility as an official voter registration hub in October.<\/p>\n

    According to Arizona Democrat Secretary of State Adrian Fontes, Native Health of Phoenix, which caters to \u201curban Native Americans, Alaska Natives, and all other individuals,\u201d will \u201cassist individuals in the voter registration process.\u201d The administration confirmed that the IHS facility would be one of five designated as voter registration sites by the end of 2023.<\/p>\n

    Much like young voters, Native Americans heavily favor Democrats.<\/p>\n

    4. Department of Agriculture<\/p>\n

    The USDA is another federal agency directing its efforts at potential Democrat voters. Earlier this month, emails obtained by The Daily Signal show the agency was colluding with Demos as early as August 2021 to work on turning out voters.<\/p>\n

    As The Federalist\u2019s M.D. Kittle reported, the USDA\u2019s Food and Nutrition Service \u201cencourages all state agencies administering the child nutrition programs to provide local program operators with promotional materials, including voter registration and non-partisan, non-campaign election information, to disseminate among voting-age program participants and their families.\u201d<\/p>\n

    One of the \u201cideas\u201d recommended by the agency is for \u201c[s]chool food authorities administering the National School Lunch Program (NSLP) in high schools, and adult day care centers and emergency shelters participating in the Child and Adult Care Food Program (CACFP) to promote voter registration and election information among voting-age participants and use congregate feeding areas, such as cafeterias, or food distribution sites, as sites for the dissemination of information.\u201d<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

  • Sweden officially joins NATO<\/a>.
    \n

    Sweden officially became part of the NATO alliance Thursday, two years after Russia\u2019s invasion of Ukraine caused the nation to overhaul its non-alignment policy.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

    Snip.<\/p>\n

    \u201cIt\u2019s official \u2013 #Sweden is now the 32nd member of #NATO, taking its rightful place at our table. Sweden\u2019s accession makes NATO stronger, Sweden safer, and the whole Alliance more secure. I look forward to raising their flag at NATO HQ on Monday,\u201d NATO Secretary General Jens Stoltenberg said on X Thursday. Hungary ratified Sweden\u2019s ascension into the alliance last week, becoming the final NATO country to do so.<\/p>\n

    The nordic country applied for NATO membership in May 2022, about three months after Russia began its war in Ukraine. The admission of Finland and Sweden expands NATO to 32 members.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

    As Peter Zeihan noted<\/a>, “in the Swedish military, every day you wake up, you prepare for one thing: the war with the Russians.” Good job, Putin!<\/p>\n

    Blaze Media journalist Steve Baker was arrested by the FBI and brought to a Texas federal courtroom in handcuffs, a belly chain and foot shackles to face four nonviolent misdemeanor charges for being at the U.S. Capitol on Jan. 6, 2021…<\/p>\n

    \u201cThere\u2019s nothing in there about my behavior,\u201d Mr. Baker told The Epoch Times. \u201cIt\u2019s all about my words. Everything. It\u2019s all about stuff I said before, stuff I said after, and that\u2019s it. No more complicated than that.\u201d<\/p>\n
