I actually read this section of Bidens Build Back Better campaign plan. What was obviously lacking in that document was anything regarding enforcement. So yeah, folks are trying to do their job. There are apprehensions and then as I said, we are turning these folks loose in this country with little to no idea who they really are and little to no idea how they are going to support themselves. But yeah, that’s a good plan. That’s reasonable and smart. :roll: :roll: :roll:

What’s amusing to me is how much folks who favor this policy or lack thereof, bitch when just a fraction of these people show up in their community. They talk the talk and then bitch and moan when they have to deal with just a small fraction of the problem border states deal with everyday.

What's amusing to me is watching politicians who say we welcome refugees from Cuba, Nicaragua, and Venezuela, then turn around and stop them or drop them off in freezing weather.

Ron DeSantis giving his opinion about New York buying billboards in Florida is not a lie.

But to left wing extremist it is exactly the same as Biden's 4 to 5 decades of lying.

It is ok for pocahontas to lie about being a native American for personal gain. Because she is a socialist Democrat you think nothing of it.

You are a huuugggeee hypocrite with a double standard.

Hypocrisy is calling other people hypocrites when you’re the biggest hypocrites on these boards.

Aside from Donald Trump attempting to overthrow the government, the biggest lie told by a president this century is George Bush, who lied America and the entire world into a war with Iraq, which claimed the lives of thousands and thousands of people. And you don’t care about how evil and sinister that is. Instead you voted for him.

Then we have the most important event in our current history, the J6 attack on the Capital attempting to destroy Democracy and the Big Lie pushed by your party. This is what you should care about. But both you and Joe don’t care. Because there is no bottom. Instead you now lie about what happened then attempt to change history, and have no problem with an incoming House filled with seditionists and traitors who refused to testify, who constantly lie and swear allegiance to Donald Trump, and who have NO plan to work on issues important to the USA.

Yep. You both vote for seditionists and traitors who stand behind Donald Trump, the king of lies, the lord of the flies, in his attempt to install himself as a king, and you have no problem voting for those who push and sell his sinister lies. This needs to be pointed out every time both of you come on these boards and complain about Biden or attempt to derail threads on this liberal message board.


So, sit down, STFU and stop derailing threads.

She said what she was told. My family is from Oklahoma and that’s why we ALL were told. You don’t have a clue Ohio Boy. But it’s just like you guys to draw such a false equivalency. You say she’s just as bad as Santos. Anything Republicans do is justified to you.

DNA tests do not necessarily show who your ancestors are. You can have a third cousin and not show a DNA relationship.

There are also many family cases where a mother might have had a relationship with someone other than who the presumed father was, which is discovered by genealogists.

That said.

Warren’s DNA test shows she has Native heritage.

https://www.factcheck.org/2018/10/the-f ... -dna-test/
Subsequently, Trump took to calling her “Pocahontas,” and during a rally this past July, challenged her to take a DNA test, saying he would donate $1 million to charity “if you take the test and it shows you’re an Indian.”

The new findings support Warren’s claim that she has at least one Native American ancestor, although they cannot reveal whether that individual was a member of any specific tribe. The results were not peer-reviewed, as they would be in a formal scientific publication, but four anthropological geneticists told us the methodologies were valid and the conclusions reasonable.

Trump, however, interpreted the findings differently. Over a series of tweets, he called the test “bogus” and said the results showed Warren might have less Native American DNA than the “average American.”

… While scientists don’t think of ancestry in terms of “blood” — the clues are in genetic sequences, passed down to children by parents — the evidence suggests it’s false to say Warren has “no Indian blood.” Warren’s DNA test, which was analyzed under the supervision of a respected geneticist at Stanford University, demonstrates she very likely has a Native American ancestor...


… In fact, there is a surprisingly high chance that a person will receive no DNA from a relatively recent ancestor. Graham Coop, an evolutionary and populations geneticist at the University of California, Davis, for example, has estimated there’s about a 13 percent chance a person will not get any genetic material from an ancestor from eight generations ago. At 10 generations, this jumps to about a 50 percent chance. This reveals a fundamental discrepancy between ancestry and genetics, since a person’s ancestry can still be true, and yet they might not have any trace of it in their bodies.

Just wow:
Law enforcement officials in Brazil will reinstate fraud charges against Rep.-elect George Santos, the Rio de Janeiro prosecutor’s office tells CNN, as the New York Republican officially assumes his role in the US House Tuesday under a cloud of suspicion over his dubious resume.

Prosecutors said they will seek a “formal response” from Santos related to a stolen checkbook in 2008, after police suspended an investigation into him because they were unable to find him for nearly a decade.

Authorities, having verified Santos’ location, will make a formal request to the US Justice Department to notify him of the charges, Maristela Pereira, a spokeswoman for the Rio de Janeiro prosecutor’s office, told CNN. The prosecutor’s office told CNN the request will be filed upon reopening on Friday.

CNN previously confirmed that Santos was charged with embezzlement in a Brazilian court in 2011, according to case records from the Rio de Janeiro Court of Justice. However, court records from 2013 state that the charge was archived after court summons went unanswered and they were unable to locate Santos.

CNN has reached out to a lawyer for Santos for comment. The reinstatement of the fraud charges was first reported by The New York Times.

According to the Times, citing court records it has reviewed, the criminal case stems from a visit Santos made to a small clothing store in Niterói, a city outside of Rio de Janeiro, where Santos spent nearly $700 out of the stolen checkbook using a fake name.
But wait...
In an interview with the New York Post last week, Santos denied that he had been charged with any crime in Brazil, saying: “I am not a criminal here – not here or in Brazil or any jurisdiction in the world. Absolutely not. That didn’t happen.”
That settles it then, right?

This guy is the perfect Republican, isn't he?

So the Republicans named Santos to two committees. They must be proud of their man.

Just when you think this guy can't get any sicker, here it comes:
Disgraced Rep. George Santos allegedly conned a disabled, homeless veteran out of thousands of dollars donated to save the man’s dying service dog, according to a stomach-turning report.

The alleged account adds to Santos’ growing list of shady behavior — from a largely forged resume to fabricated Jewish heritage — which has entangled the freshman congressman since he was elected to represent parts of Long Island and Queens.

The veteran, Richard Osthoff, told the local news site Patch that he met Santos, who introduced himself as Anthony Devolder, during a tough time in his life in May 2016.

Osthoff, who was honorably discharged from the Navy in 2002, was living in a tent on the side of Route 9 in Howell, New Jersey, with his beloved service dog Sapphire at the time, Patch reported.

Sapphire was suffering from a life-threatening stomach tumor that was growing by the day and surgery to remove the tumor would cost $3,000, according to the vet’s estimate, Osthoff said.

The veteran, who couldn’t afford the surgery, said a veterinary technician took him aside and offered assistance via a pet charity called Friends of Pets United run by Anthony Devolder, an alias used by Santos in the past.

Devolder set up a GoFundMe to raise funds for Sapphire and once it hit its goal of $3,000, he closed and deleted the fundraising page and became hard to reach before he disappeared altogether, Osthoff told Patch.

The Navy vet, now 47, never saw a penny of the donations and his beloved service dog died on Jan. 15, 2017, according to the outlet.

“Little girl never left my side in 10 years,” Osthoff told Patch. “I went through two bouts of seriously considering suicide, but thinking about leaving her without me saved my life. I loved that dog so much, I inhaled her last breaths when I had her euthanized.”
None of our conservatives will speak out against Santos. Oh, but I'm sure Glenn will say "B-b-b-b-but Hunter Biden!"

George Santos reportedly used "Kitara" alias when he was a drag queen in Brazil

New York imposter Rep. George Santos — aka Anthony Devolder, aka George Devolder, aka Anthony Zabrovsky — might have yet another alias he forgot to mention: Kitara Ravache.

According to a tweet posted by MSNBC columnist Marisa Kabas (see below), a Brazilian drag queen named Eula Rochard says she used to be friends with Santos when he lived in Brazil (before he was accused of fraud and fled the country), and claims the Republican Congressman sometimes went by his drag name, Kitara.

I read that, and so far it's all one person's story, but there are plenty of other reasons to look seriously into this Santos matter. He apparently lied about everything, his name included. It swung a key district in an important urban area with real problems. I am under the possibly mistaken assumption that lying one's way into Congress is worth a more serious investigation than it will probably ever get.

You accept Santos. He's your man. No matter what he did, you think he's better than any Democrat.

When you think the other side will destroy the country if given power (even though they never have when given power), that means there isn't nothing off the table when it comes to keeping power for yourself.

Including coups and killing Democrats, right?

Unlike you I do not vote straight party line. I personally do not like where the republican party is currently. Bur, the Sophie's Choice being them or the far left radical socialist agenda of those who run the democratic party leaves little choice.

However I will not be voting for Ralph Norman in the next election. So name me a democratic Congressman you would oppose, or senator, or governor, or dog catcher.

You are the one who wants one party rule and a one party government. Not me.

This is bullshit, nothing more. You told me today that George Santos is better in office than any Democrat at all, because we are all socialists that want to destroy America.

You had a very good Senate candidate you could have voted for, but you voted for Trump's top wingman, Lindsey Graham anyway. So yes, you're a Trump man that won't ever again vote for a Democrat.

Again you are lying because you are a liar.

I have repeatedly said that the democratic socialist and their useful idiots do not want to destroy our country.
That they believe their socialist agenda will strengthen and make our country stronger.

However it is my belief that your extreme leftvwing beliefs would unitentionally not only destroy our economy it would also make the world unsafe and lead to an end to our union.
