This mayor is married to the former US Congresswoman and Orlando police officer Val Deming who ran for US Senator of Fl losing to Marco Rubio. While in Congress Val Deming was selected to be House Impeachment Manager in the first trial of PDJT.
Unbelievable stunning failures by the Deming family to follow the US and Florida Constitutions.

I am so sick of illegal aliens murdering on our soil and the law, by design, treats them gently and they do not pay harsh punishments.

I know that this lawlessness is now being used by the tyrants in and around our governments to introduce AI and total Orwellian surveillance for our ‘safety’. That will never be the answer. The powers that be created this lawlessness without AI and order can be restored without AI.
After proven guilty, these illegal aliens should executed within 3 months. The trial itself should last no more than 3 months. We are not debating if altering the human dna with mRNA allows a company to own a portion of a person wages because the company extends both the life and quality of life with their technology, for example. Meaning: this is not a complex case which warrants geneticists, patent lawyers, philosophers, and theologians. Did they murder the victim and what is the proof. Pretty simple.
Upon the findings of a guilty verdict for murder 1, 2, or 3 then these perps need to be put down, like the animals they chose to be.
Enough of this!
Like to see the Dept of Homeland Security put a bounty on every illegal invader. Say & $200 for every illegal turned over to ICE by US citizens. Thousands of retired LE and military people would jump all over that deal.
In the 60’s, the bounty was $2 a head for illegals and $10 for military deserters. Adjust that for inflation.
Do you have documentation? This will impact the conversation.
Workable, given there are probably a million removal orders on the books. Use bounty hunters to execute existing lawful immigration court orders. Issue bench warrants for aliens who do not appear for immigration hearing.
Currently administrative deportation/removal warrants do not appear in any National Crime index. A simple criminal misdemeanor warrant or failure to appear will pop on a routine traffic stop, a deportation warrant does not. (to the best of my knowledge).
This can be fixed. Include administrative removal orders into NCIC.
Great idea and it would also boost the economy.

Funny how none of the murderers, rapists or car jackers that we have read about daily for the past ten years are Canadian but somehow Canadians are the bad guys these days?
Well in one respect-they are, they ‘don’t have the money’ to put out their wildfires that are polluting the northern mid west…Chicagoland has not seen a ‘blue’ sky as we know a blue sky, in weeks.
But yet the liberal marxists shove their ‘climate’ down our throats?
If they were a state, PDJT would have fixed that….(LOL).

Ragle Gumm’s unedited post didn’t have a single reference to Canada.
Agree! I never thought of this but wonder if a Federal law could be passed that states any illegal committing murder on US soil automatically gets a death sentence upon conviction??? Murder by those illegally in the country should get the sentence that Singapore gives to drug smugglers!!!! Enough of this 💩!!!! JMO
Blame Communist, Democrat, utopian, statist, collectivist voters and politicians.
Since they (illegal alien criminals) shouldn’t even be here to begin with, they should get the harshest application of the law.
The death penalty is a deterrent, unless you are a Communist, Democrat, utopian, statist, collectivist trying to blow up the system.
It is never enforced and hence is NO deterrent.
National suicide. The whole of the EU…same.

Perfect, Colkitto. The more things change the more they remain the same…
Or as Maquis would say, “Plus ça change, plus c’est la même chose.”
I wanted to commend you for an extra excellent round of memes you did today. Made my morning while I was at work. Cheers! ( I do have some sadness for the passing of Loni Anderson. Loved her and the cast from WKRP. Happier times back in those days)
You’re welcome, dear friend. There are days when they just come together…this was one…
I know…people even thought we didn’t know them, we did actually. Does that make sense? As I am much older than you, I remember the passings of some of the biggest as if they happened yesterday.
I remember the morning I heard John Wayne died (I wept buckets knowing we’d never see another like him)….Grace Kelly, David Niven, Cary Grant, others. Markers of the life I knew, and one by one they departed.
I find myself reminiscing more often now, like you I think…yes, happier times.
Blessings always, Colkitto, and love from me to you 😘

Voters: Yeah, Obama broke the law with ‘Russiagate,’ must be prosecuted
A majority of voters believe former President Barack Obama’s national security team schemed and lied in pushing the false “Russiagate” scandal to undermine the legitimate election of President Donald Trump, and now want them prosecuted for it.
In the latest Rasmussen Reports survey shared with Secrets, 54% of likely voters said it is likely that Team Obama “committed serious crimes in manipulating intelligence.” Only 41% of respondents disagreed.
And even more respondents, 69%, demanded that those involved be “held accountable.”
The new poll was conducted after Trump’s national intelligence director, Tulsi Gabbard, reported that Obama and his staff allegedly played a huge role in ginning up the scandal that Russia influenced and manipulated the 2016 election of Trump over the media’s choice, Hillary Clinton.

Time for a bounty hunter or citizen’s arrest?
Isn’t this the second time they have pulled this stunt?
Didn’t somebody do something similar a couple of years ago…..they were partying on the plane and posting on Twitter??
The Democrats’ representative who is speaking for them to the media is an ethnic Chinese born in China.

Russians continue to advance…
#UkraineRussiaWar #MilitarySummary
The situation for Ukrainians continues to deteriorate today in the direction of Pokrovsk. Geolocated video footage proves the presence of Russian ground forces in the area of the mine east of Rodynske. There are also reports of DRGs in Rodynske itself. Supplies and evacuations are said to be very unreliable here due to the high number of Russian drones.
At the same time, the Russians are also seeing success in the direction of Siversk, where they have now captured Novoselivka. Siversk remains the focus of Russian attention in Slavyansk direction.
Clowns to the left of me, Russian’s to the right.
Must be hard to balance supporting ukrainian nazis while the EU demands ukraine legalize gay marriage against the wishes of Ukrainians.

Where’s PETA when you really need them…
A zoo in Denmark is asking the public for donations of unwanted small pets to feed its captive predators.
“In zoos, we have a responsibility to imitate the natural food chain of the animals — in terms of both animal welfare and professional integrity,” Aalborg Zoo said in a post on social media.
The zoo in northern Denmark said that chickens, rabbits, horses and guinea pigs were an important part of the diet of its predators, which need “whole prey,” reminiscent of what they would hunt in the wild.
“We have a responsibility to imitate the natural food chain of the animals – in terms of both animal welfare and professional integrity,” Aalborg Zoo says.
https://www.aol.com/zoo-asks-public-donate-unwanted-122707063.html
No and hell no!
PETA does not want us to have pets such as dogs or cats, last I read…
The leadership of PETA would actually support this zoo’s policy. Understand that that animal rights activists of PETA are so pro animal that they are opposed to pet ownership, although the leaders obviously do not tout this as it would damage their fundraising. PETA was caught some years ago sponsoring a team with a van that would pose as a non-kill shelter to take dogs from overcrowded shelters. Members of the team euthanized the dogs and dumped them in dumpsters. I looked for a reference to the story; however, it has been memory-holed.
Of note also is the fact that the ASPCA is similarly aligned. The ASPCA runs tear-jerking commercials about saving dogs in shelters; however, almost all of the donations to the ASPCA go to pro animal rights groups, such as PETA that are opposed to pet ownership and that actually euthanize pet animals. The ASPCA is not affiliated with local independent SPCA’s, which do good work.
Makes sense to me.
If PETA cared about animals, it would have done everything in its power to prevent Fauci’s animal abuse with sweet, compliant beagles.

Switzerland can and probably will simply join the EU and get the EU Deal.
They’d have to give up their historical neutrality to join the EU and can’t imaging the Swiss people going along with that.
Please don’t overlook the fact that “tariffs” are a routine aspect of “international trade.” They are sovereign taxes that one party can impose upon the other, such that the other party has no choice but to pay …
… or: to negotiate.
Trump: “The Art of the Deal.” We have never in our history had a President who was also a businessman. Except Jimmy Carter, whose million-dollar business was Agriculture. (A very different thing.)
And, gee: that “table of tariffs” that we all saw Trump holding up? Yeah … 50% of what we were already paying! Hey, if those other nations could just get that from us, why would they complain? “Do not interrupt your opponent when he is making a mistake.”

It really annoys me when I see people using these cards to the tune of $25.00 for a lunchtime meal. It would not surprise me if the convivence stores pull in more from food stamp cards than they do from cash or debit card users.

What happened to taking their seats away? This is more patty cake. Arrest them and they will be let go in no time. Big deal. More publicity for them. Abbott never does the hard stuff. Let’s see how tough he really isn’t.
The Dems claim the Texas Supreme Court acknowleged the denial of a quorum is consistent with the Texas Constitution. But the Court also permits the right to compel them to return. When the Dems leave the state to frustrate the authority to compel their presence, an issue is whether the frustration of the right to compell their presence vitiates the denial of aa quorum. The Texas Supreme Court is elected, and all 9 are Republicans. As for the possiility of criminality of taking money to support preventing legislation like redistricting or aid for flood victims, criminal cases are ultimately handled by the Texas Supreme Criminal Court, which is also all Republican.

This political jackal is nothing more than a “college diploma holding moron”. She has no intellect. She has no self-respect; therefore, she respects no one. She uses profanity to prove her point because she is playing a role of the “Trumpian” character brashness in black but it doesn’t sell. She is so shallow and stupid that she does not have the ability to use the English language to her advantage and pretend to be “smart”!
She comes from wealth and highly paid education, although I believe she is a very low IQ individual, based on my observation of the same type over several decades, and has achievements way beyond her skill sets; DEI.
Other than that, she is a complete ZERO.

“He’s not dead Jim”
Until recently, anyone who believed there was anything fishy about the U.S. organ donation system was labeled a conspiracy theorist. Yet now the old adage: “What’s the difference between conspiracy and truth? About six months,” rings true again, as so-called conspiracy theorists have been proven right by none other than the federal Health and Resources Services Administration (HRSA) itself.
The “conspiracy?” That organ procurement organizations (OPOs) and hospitals declare living individuals dead in order to harvest their organs.
The truth? In March 2025, the federal Health Resources and Services Administration reported in its investigation of a procurement organization called Network for Hope that there had been dozens of instances where organ retrieval was nearly begun despite the donors exhibiting signs of life.
