Tesla and SpaceX CEO Elon Musk said the Joe Biden Administration is “actively facilitating i*****l i*********n” in a post, Thursday on the social media platform X, the name Musk gave Twitter in 2023 after acquiring the company that owns it in 2022. “At this point, there is no question that this administration is actively facilitating i*****l i*********n. The numbers speak for themselves,” wrote Musk, a resident of the U.S. border state of Texas and formerly California, which also shares a border with Mexico. Musk left the note on a repost that said, “By all available metrics, this administration’s border policy is a disaster. Monthly Encounters have averaged: – 98,000 for the two previous administrations. – 242,000 for the Biden border.” “And these averages understate the current situation – it’s getting worse every month. December 2023 was the worst single month in history at the southern border,” the post added above a yearly graph going back to Jan. 2012 and depicting the marked spike in border encounters and apprehensions of i*****l i*******ts during the Biden Administration. “Using two recent years as models (FY2017 and FY2021), the number of Encounters at the border this fiscal year can be expected to range between 2.3M and 6.6M,” the post continued in a following thread. Those figures are consistent with the U.S. Customs and Border Protection (CBP) 2023 tally of 3.2 million encounters with i*****l a***ns nationwide. CBP recently told Fox News that border agents encountered a record 302,000 illegal border crossers last month. That makes December’s total number of documented encounters the highest rate of i*****l i*********n to the United States for a month on record, blowing away all previous statistics, according to Fox News. “As House Republicans heard at the southern border this week: it’s as if Border Patrol is at an open fire hydrant,” House Speaker Rep. Mike Johnson (R-LA) said Friday on CNN. “They don’t need more buckets to dump the water—they need to turn off the flow. More money to process i*****l i*******ts won’t end this crisis, but t***sformational policy changes will.”

BOMBSHELL: 200 Undercover FBI Assets at US Capitol on J*** 6, Congressman Estimates
Rob Bluey / @RobertBluey / January 08, 2024



A member of Congress investigating the J*** 6, 2021, protest at the U.S. Capitol estimates the FBI had 200 undercover assets both inside and outside the building.

“We believe that there were easily 200 FBI undercover assets operating in the crowd, outside the Capitol, embedded into groups that entered the Capitol or provoked entry of the Capitol,” Rep. Clay Higgins, R-La., said.

Higgins appeared on the Tucker Carlson Network for an interview that aired Saturday, the third anniversary of the day now commonly known as J6. He’s among the few elected Republicans still questioning the official media narrative about the day’s events.

“Given the scope of the operation and the number of doors where entry was allowed or even encouraged—and the number of people that were actually outside the Capitol and that entered—we believe 200 [is a] conservative number,” Higgins said of his estimate.

Carlson reacted with alarm.

“It’s shocking what you’re saying and confirms everyone’s worst suspicions about this,” Carlson told Higgins. “It’s clearly true.”

Based on the evidence he’s reviewed, Higgins said FBI assets worked with the local Washington, D.C., Metropolitan Police Department and U.S. C*****l P****e. The assets were dressed as supporters of then-President Donald Trump inside the Capitol, “because those were the guys that knew their way around the Capitol.”

FBI Director Christopher Wray has refused to answer questions about undercover FBI assets on J*** 6, telling Higgins at a congressional hearing, “You should not read anything into my decision not to share information on confidential human sources.”

In remarks about the J*** 6 anniversary, Attorney General Merrick Garland boasted Friday that more than 1,250 individuals have been charged for their involvement, with more than 890 convicted.

“Since the J*** 6 attack, the Justice Department has engaged in what has become one of the largest and most complex and resource-intensive investigations in our history,” Garland said. “Our work continues.”

President Joe Biden used the anniversary of J*** 6 to attack Trump in his first campaign speech of 2024.

“It was on that day that we nearly lost America, lost it all,” Biden said Friday at a speech in Valley Forge, Pennsylvania.

Carlson opened his interview with Higgins by criticizing “professional liars” who have presented a one-sided narrative about what happened on that day. Higgins, who worked in law enforcement before his e******n to Congress, has led the charge after being frustrated by the official congressional committee that investigated J*** 6, which was stacked with anti-Trump lawmakers. Ever since Republicans reclaimed control of the House in 2023, members like Higgins have pressed for answers.

For example, as a member of Congress familiar with the U.S. Capitol, Higgins said it’s unfathomable to believe that everyday Americans in Washington, D.C., would know how to navigate the building without help.

“There’s no way they can come in some random door that gets opened and then get their way directly to Statuary [Hall] or the House chamber or the Senate chamber. It’s just not possible,” Higgins explained. “The FBI assets that were dressed as Trump supporters that were inside the Capitol were there, I believe, and evidence indicates that they were there to specifically wave in the Trump supporters that had gathered outside the Capitol.”

Higgins told Carlson these undercover assets guided protesters “directly to the areas where the FBI, the DOJ, and the Deep State actors” would later be able to implicate them for arrest and prosecution.

When pressed on who could have orchestrated such a massive operation, Higgins put the blame on not on a single person but rather a combination of anti-Trump actors working in cahoots with Democrats.

“It’s a complex web of FBI assets across the country that can be activated. So, if you have authority at some of the highest levels in the FBI, it doesn’t take much,” Higgins said. He added that those who planned it were “the faction within the FBI and within our intelligence services that would coordinate with the most extreme liberal factions within the Democrat Party that were desperate to keep Trump out of office.”

Higgins identified the 200 undercover assets as confidential informants, registered informants, nonregistered informants, and voluntary informants.

Ultimately, Higgins said, they had a goal of tarnishing not just Trump’s reputation but also the people associated with the Make America Great Again movement.

“Their objective was to destroy the entire MAGA movement,” Higgins said, “to forever stain the patriotic fervor that was associated with the America First MAGA movement that had won in 2016 and we believe won again in 2020.”

Higgins called the FBI’s involvement “conspiratorial corruption,” and said it predated J*** 6 for many months when FBI assets were engaged in online forums of Americans who questioned C****-** restrictions and the integrity of the 2020 p**********l e******n.

“I’m following the evidence, and to my horror, it implicates our FBI at the highest level,” Higgins told Carlson. “A conspiracy within our government at the highest level to set the stage for a c*********d e******n cycle in 2020. And then the actions that took place on J4, 5, and 6, and then the criminal investigation, arrest, and prosecution of Americans that they were able to entrap.”

Higgins, who was first elected in 2016 to represent southwestern Louisiana, is now pressing House Speaker Mike Johnson, R-La., to release more information, beyond just video footage, about J*** 6. He said the only true way to uncover what really happened is for the American people to have access.

“He has a responsibility to fully release that data,” Higgins said of Johnson. “And then the American people will see for themselves what some of us have already learned, to our horror, to be true.”

Young woman flogged 74 times for failing to cover her hair

'The man started hitting. My shoulders, my back, my hips, my thighs, my legs''The man started hitting. My shoulders, my back, my hips, my thighs, my legs'

The rogue Islamic regime in Iran has pushed itself, and its atrocities, into the headlines once again, this time for flogging a beautiful woman 74 times, leaving her injured, solely because she wouldn't cover her hair and neck as men in the repressive government demanded.

The government claimed Roya Heshmati, 33, was "encouraging permissiveness" with her appearance.

The abuse was condemned by the Women’s Committee of the National Council of Resistance of Iran, and one activist group reported Heshmati described she was summoned to the government facility where sentences are delivered on January 3.

Her accounted noted the officer "in charge" threatened her with another criminal case for not wearing the head covering at the time.

"They opened the iron gate. The walls of the room were made of cement. There was a bed at the end of the small room with iron shackles welded to both sides. There was an iron device similar to the base of a large canvas with a place for handcuffs, with iron shackles worn-out in the middle of the room, and a small chair and table with whips on top, both behind the door. A medieval torture chamber," she wrote about the attack she endured.

She said, "The man took a black leather whip from the bunch of whips behind the door, wrapped it around his hand twice and came to the bed. The judge said: Don’t hit too hard. The man started hitting. My shoulders, my back, my hips, my thighs, my legs, then start over. I didn’t count the number of lashes."

Is Islam in any respect the so-called 'religion of peace'?

Iran is one of few countries around the world that still violates standards set by the International Covenant on Civil and Political Rights that specifically bans the use of degrading and inhumane punishments such as flogging.

A published report said Iran's courts claimed, "Her penalty of 74 strokes of the lash was carried out in accordance with the law and with Shariah."

More and more women have been defying the men in Iran's government who demand women follow a dress code, and whippings, while uncommon, have been increasing since protests against the repressive government began in 2022.

Those were triggered by the death then of Mahsa Amini, 22, who was arrested for her alleged breach of the Islamic dress code and died in custody.

BOTTOM LINE:

"One gauge of the adverse economic impacts of green subsidies is the cost to taxpayers to create the promised thousands of g***n e****y jobs, especially for offshore wind. Using offshore wind developers’ claimed employment impacts, the average subsidy for each green job created will be over $2 million per year. Forcing taxpayers to pay millions of dollars each year for each job created, while claiming that doing so will bolster the U.S. economy, is Alice in Wonderland economics."

MY COMMENT: "Voodoo Economics" anyone???
