Glenn Beck joined Bill O’Reilly last night to talk about his planned border visit and the “angry death threats” he’s gotten from conservatives for doing so. Beck said he understands the anger, but insisted he has a “responsibility to God” to put aside politics and help people in need.

Beck said he’s raised $1.8 million dollars so far, but acknowledges the frustration many have with the broken immigration system. He said there are “some people [that] believe that I’m just gonna make things worse” and even “encouraging people to come here.”

Update to this story from yesterday.

(Via The Blaze)  […]  A source with direct knowledge of the situation confirmed to TheBlaze on Monday that Bergin has, in fact, been suspended over his remarks about the black community and may end up being fired. The source said Bergin was asked not to come in Monday and Tuesday as the news station figures out how to handle the situation.
News 12, a network of news stations serving various areas mostly in New York and New Jersey, did not return messages left by TheBlaze on Monday.
Here’s what Bergin said on the air (the politically incorrect part is around @2:00):

“We were besieged, flooded with calls from police officers furious that we would give media coverage to the life of a cop killer. It’s understandable. We decided to air it because it’s important to shine a light on the anti-cop mentality that has so contaminated America’s inner cities. This same, sick, perverse line of thinking is evident from Jersey City, to Newark and Patterson to Trenton.”
“It has made the police officer’s job impossible and it has got to stop. The underlying cause of all of this, of course: young black men growing up without fathers. Unfortunately, no one in the news media has the courage to touch that subject.”  (link for more)

And that moment of brutal honesty cost him his job.  But Eric Holder says “we’re a nation of cowards” when it comes to race.   Gee, go figure, I wonder why..

We’ll keep repeating this because it takes a lot of effort to break through the lame stream media narrative AS THEY AVOID – AVOID – AVOID.   
President Obama, and by consequence his water-carrying cohorts, are on the wrong side of the majority of Americans on the border crisis.

This recent article in The Hill, highlights the disconnect and the problem for Democrats in general.    In 2011 President Obama stood on the banks of the Rio Grande and announced “the border is secure”.   He went on to shout opposite opinion in that regard, “they want a moat – alligators in the moat”, was silly.
In 2014 the unsecure border reality has become the “border crisis”, and is now haunting President Obama and his cohorts in ideology.   They are beginning to twitch, visibly.
A similar analogy would be to compare the controversial issue around the Islamic Mosque proposed for New York, at Ground Zero.   The media and Dems worked feverishly to portray opposition as “bigoted and nativist”.    But the reality was the majority of Americans opposed the entire premise.   Try as hard as they would, it remained a losing issue for the Dems, but they held on to it as long as they could; eventually conceding collapse under the sheer weight of opposition.   Quietly the issue disappeared.
So too is this claim that expecting the border to be secure -from infiltrators of any ideology- is a bigoted position.   It just won’t sell.   Americans of all persuasions can see the depth of stupid; and when we say ‘of all persuasions’ we mean regardless of political tendencies. (more…)

Connecticut – Five people were shot early Sunday morning outside a downtown Stamford nightclub in a wild scene captured on video.

The ridiculous claims by Attorney General Eric Holder are belied by a wide range of diverse aspects;  I’m going to point out two.
First, as Holder admits he plays the race-card directed toward “some people”, not all people.   However, the stupidity of this deflection is inherent when you think of the result as compared to the approach.
Stating he can direct the playing of the race-card, toward specific personages is counter intuitive to the reality that the policy he shields behind it cannot be similarly divided.

You cannot defend legal policy, or the application therein, by saying “fill-in-the-blank people” won’t like this, ergo my policy is subject to attack by racist recipients, without yourself being racist as you consider its construction.
Either the policy stands scrutiny regardless of contingent or coalition or it does not.
If you assemble the legal policy based on the color of the skin carried by the recipient of the policy, then the policy itself is racist.

Several key empirical facts do not lend credibility to the White House claim of a “surprise crisis”.

Actually quite the opposite – But to really absorb the issue we must analyze current year events through the reality of prior events;  we must look into the way-back machine.  To that end we have read the entirety of:

• A March 2014 Final Report from the National Center For Border Security – HERE
• A June 2014 (Declassified) Intelligence Report on UAC’s and Central America – HERE
• A June 2014 Congressional Research Report analyzing the prior four years of Central American UAC’s (Unaccompanied Alien Children) – HERE
• A July 2014 internal White House and Dept. Of Homeland Security communique outlining the UAC crisis.  – HERE
• A January 2014 DHS and HHS Summary of UAC directives to include Contract Needs – HERE

Because these reports are so critical to the full understanding we have also embedded them in their pdf. entirety near the end of the timeline:
April 2009 – After a Mid-East trip to Egypt to deliver his Cairo speech, President Barack Obama travels to South America for the “Summit of the Americas“. The summit included thirty-four South American countries. Obama wanted to promote his point that relations in North and South America can be heavily improved, especially after age old ideals on immigration and commerce are dropped. Hugo Chavez warmly embraced Obama and provided a gift, a book titled “The Open Veins of Latin America“. (link)
December 2009 – November 2010 – 100% of all political effort was leveraged to create and institute the ACA or ObamaCare. All media oxygen is focused on ObamaCare 24/7.
November 2010 – President Obama is “shellacked” in Mid-Term elections. Loses control of the House of Representatives to Republicans. Biggest electoral defeat since 1918.
January 2011 – Emphasis, and political strategy changes. “Comprehensive Immigration Reform“, ie. “amnesty” becomes the mainstay approach toward retention of political power. Throughout a contentious Republican primary season, to assist their ideological traveler, the U.S. media kept the issue on the front burner.
May 2011 –  President Obama travels to the Rio Grande sector of the border to push for his immigration platform (ie. Amnesty).   He proclaims the border is safe and secure and famously attacks his opposition for wanting an “alligator moat”. (more…)

Well, you decide.

(Reason.com via iOTW) A mother in Bristol, Connecticut, was charged with leaving a child unsupervised in a car Wednesday. How old was the helpless tyke?
Eleven.
Why was she in the car? She asked her mom if she could stay there.
Was she in danger of boiling to death? According to WFSB:

When officers opened the car doors, they said the child was responsive and not in distress, and that the car was not “excessively hot.”

In other words, the 11-year-old girl was indisputably fine. Not overheated, not abandoned, not upset—nothing.
So don’t just ask why the mom was charged with a crime, ask why is this a crime?  Why does the law get to decide how a mom should raise her kids? Why does the law treat a self-sufficient 11 year old as a helpless forsaken baby? Why does the law allow cops to harass tweens and moms just going about their day?  (continue reading)

Despite the media narrative to the contrary, the recent poll by Investors Business Daily tells the story of how -and why- Murrieta was successful against the full weight of the Obama Regime and pravdaesque media that were attacking them.

The majority of Americans agree with Murrieta and their steadfast protest.

There is NO-WAY President Obama, as the face of the federal government, was going to put his visible self against the sheer reality of the patriots afore him. 
The Patriots position is in the majority.   This is the same reason the Bundy Ranch was victorious.
MURRIETA, Calif. — Following a string of contentious protests in Southern California, U.S. Customs and Border Protection announced Thursday it will no longer send busloads of undocumented immigrants to San Diego or El Centro.
The immigrants — mainly families and unaccompanied children from Central America — were being bused to facilities in San Diego and El Centro every three days to alleviate overwhelmed detention facilities in the Rio Grande Valley in Texas.
