Illegal aliens and voting… no thanks. pic.twitter.com/GA0UlVhLlq

Every week, the national news cycle is flooded with examples of illegal aliens killing innocent people, defrauding taxpayers, and causing chaos.

Most people with common sense see these stories and understand the need for strict immigration enforcement and mass deportations. For high-profile Democrats, the answer appears to be an effort to let illegal aliens vote?

The Gateway Pundit recently reported on the illegal alien suspect in an Austin, Texas, shooting spree, an illegal alien truck driver accused of killing two people, and an illegal alien who caused a crash on a freeway next to ICE agents who were in the process of arresting another illegal alien.

These are just a few of the most recent headlines.

While Americans are infuriated and heartbroken over the death and destruction caused by illegal aliens, Democrats are more open than ever in their support for illegal aliens voting.

As The Gateway Pundit reported,

Radical Democrat Mayor Karen Bass just admitted on camera that she’s willing to hand voting rights to non-citizens in Los Angeles.

Bass responded to a question about far-left Councilmember Hugo Soto-Martínez’s push to let non-citizens vote in local elections by declaring: “Well, I think we need to explore it.”

The Gateway Pundit also reported,

Virginia’s new Democrat Governor Abigail Spanberger has just announced that she is signing an executive order to keep ICE agents away from polling places.

Why do you suppose such a thing would be necessary?

Democrats assure us that illegal aliens are not voting because they are forbidden from doing so by law. So why would they be worried about ICE showing up at polling places? It just doesn’t make any sense.

The last thing our country needs is to have criminal illegal aliens voting in our elections.

Castro is now a fugitive from US justice, Rubio reminded us.

Yesterday, when announcing the indictment of former Cuban dictator Raul Castro for conspiracy to kill US citizens, acting US Attorney General Todd Blanche said that when someone kills Americans, it doesn’t matter how far they are or how much time has passed, the US will get to them.

Immediately, the speculation began: Will Donald J. Trump launch an op such as the one that captured Nicolas Maduro? Will the US invade Cuba and overthrow the Cuban dictatorship of Miguel Díaz-Canel?

So, today, as soon as the Secretary of State appeared in public, he was asked about Castro’s indictment and eventual capture.

“Reporter: How do you intend to get Raul Castro to the United States?

Rubio: Well, that was the, a grand jury in South Florida returned an indictment of Raul Castro, nothing to do with us. The grand jury, the evidence is clear, he admits to it. Raul Castro openly admits and brags about, he shot down, gave the order to shoot down civilian airplanes.

Reporter: How would you get him here?

Rubio: Well, I’m not going to talk about how we’re going to get him here. If we were trying to get him here, why would I say to the media what our plans are about that? I know you have to ask, but why would I answer that? The bottom line, he’s at that point, he becomes a fugitive of American justice. And well, if there’s an announcement of a positive, I will tell you, we’ll tell you afterwards, not before.”

Rep. Byron Donalds (R-FL) absolutely demolished a CNN host who tried to peddle a blatant lie about President Trump’s new Department of Justice “anti-weaponization” fund.

The failing fake news network, still reeling from years of pushing the Russia hoax and defending the Biden regime’s lawfare against Trump and his supporters, attempted to smear the $1.776 billion IRS settlement fund by claiming it might just hand taxpayer money to January 6 defendants who allegedly “harmed police.”

But Rep. Donalds wasn’t about to let the propaganda arm of the Democrat Party get away with it.

Byron Donalds:
Well, no, it’s more detailed than that. You’re just saying—

Pamela Brown:
How is it? They’re convicted of attacking a police officer.

Byron Donalds:
And let me explain why. Because if a Justice Department official overcharges in that case, if they decide to then go and do other prosecutions for political purposes—and let’s be very clear, that is what the Biden Justice Department was doing—then that, in my view, is not following equal justice under the law, which is the law of the land here in our country. So under those circumstances, then yes, a fund like this should be utilized.

Pamela Brown:
So you’re not ruling this out either—that those convicted of attacking police officers could be compensated? You’re not ruling out that that could—that should be a possibility?

Byron Donalds:
That’s something where you have to actually watch the operations of this fund and what moves forward. What you’re trying to do is make an assertion where it doesn’t even exist today, and that’s what you’re doing. So don’t come in with a leading question trying to make an assertion that doesn’t exist, because you’re trying to make it a political question.

Pamela Brown:
No, I was just—

Byron Donalds:
Let’s be fundamentally clear that there have been instances in the history of this country where our government has gone after our people based upon political means. They have overcharged—and it’s not even if they brought charges—reckless investigations, trying to bring the abuse of Justice Department officials or other law enforcement officials against the American people.

We can talk about what happened with Michael Flynn—the fact that he was persecuted by this government under the phony Russia collusion scandal, which we all know now is fake and phony. What about him? What about the money he had to put out for his attorneys? What about the anguish on his family?

These are the real-life situations that do happen to the American people. So what I would say is, let’s not cheapen it and weaponize it just because we’re trying to make a political point. Let’s take a step back and understand that we have to have a federal government and a Department of Justice that looks at the law plainly and clearly, and does not weaponize it for political means.

Indicted Minnesota fraudster Muhammad Omar was captured two hours after he jumped off a 4-story balcony and fled.

The Justice Department on Thursday announced new indictments against 15 Minnesota fraudsters in a ‘shocking’ $90 million bust during a press conference on its efforts to crack down on fraud.

Assistant Attorney General Colin McDonald made the announcement after Aimee Bock, the convicted mastermind behind the $250 million Feeding Our Future scandal, was sentenced to 41.5 years in federal prison.

“Today, we are announcing criminal charges against 15 defendants in Minnesota for fraud schemes that targeted over $90 million in taxpayer dollars,” Colin McDonald said.

“This is the beginning of our work in Minnesota. The fraud here in Minnesota is shocking,” he added.

One of the indicted fraudsters, identified as Muhammad Omar, jumped out of a 4-story building and fled.

“Muhammad Abdulqadir Omar, 32, was charged by indictment with one count of conspiracy to commit health care fraud and four counts of health care fraud in connection with a scheme to submit $3.3 million in fraudulent claims to the Housing Stabilization Services (HSS) Program of Minnesota Medicaid, of which approximately $3.2 million was paid,” the DOJ said.

“As alleged in the indictment, Omar co-owned and operated North Home Health Care LLC (NHHC) and Omar individually owned South Home Health Care LLC (SHHC). Omar, through NHHC and SHHC, submitted claims to the HSS Program for services that they did not provide and for more services than were actually provided to Medicaid recipients. Omar then created records falsifying the services that they claimed to have provided to Medicaid recipients and provided those records to insurers to justify their fraudulent claims,” the DOJ said.

Authorities posted surveillance video of Omar limping as he tried to evade arrest.

WATCH:

Two hours later, Muhammad Omar was arrested.

“After today’s interagency press conference announcing 15 public healthcare fraud indictments in Minnesota, the below subject who fled when FBI executed today’s raid – Muhammad Omar – has now been arrested,” FBI Director Kash Patel said.

“He is charged with healthcare fraud (18 U.S.C. § 1349, 18 U.S.C. § 1347) involving a Housing Stabilization Services company – with fraudulent claims for services not provided and diverting the proceeds for personal benefit. Subject was located arrested within 2 hours,” Kash Patel said.

California Governor and likely 2028 Presidential hopeful Gavin Newsom took a shot at Vice President JD Vance while speaking at the Center for American Progress Ideas Conference in Washington, DC, on Wednesday, declaring that the VP doesn’t have what it takes to replace Trump in the White House.

Trump, Newsom said, is an “invasive species,” which Trumpism and the MAGA movement can’t survive without. “It’s a cult of personality,” he said, adding, “With all due respect, JD, you don’t have it.”

Newsom went on to deliver a bizarre word salad about what the Democrats need to win the White House in 2028 and how voters are thinking about the future. Oddly, he continued his defense of Biden’s policies, claiming that the economy was “booming” with low inflation and that job creation and unemployment were the best since the 1960s.

He further accused Trump of “wanting to bring us back to a pre-1960s world” with the destruction of LGBTQ rights, women’s rights, and voting rights.

Notably, this comes as the Democratic Party’s 2024 election autopsy, which credits in part the focus on identity politics for Kamala Harris’s loss, was released. They still haven’t learned!

WATCH:

Newsom: Trump’s an invasive species. I don’t see Trump, Trumpism lasting beyond Trump. Period. Full stop. It’s a cult of personality. With all due respect, JD, you don’t have it, and so I did something a little more damn optimistic.

As long as we own up to our own complicity, we’ve been too timid. It’s not about tinkering anymore. It’s not about I doubled the earned income tax credit. If I’m giving that speech, you’re in trouble. It’s not about retraining, and that’s, this is something different. I’m sorry, I don’t know. I’m not going all Elizabeth or Bernie on you, or AOC. Maybe I am a little bit. You know, in terms of understanding that, or all Trump and Trumpism, understanding that, you know it’s, it’s, it’s just, it is remarkable, it’s, you know, and I’ll end on this, I know I got to go. The anxiety is manifesting in real despair for people.

I mean, their pessimism is pretty profound, and that’s, you know, and AI, as I say, is going to detonate that, and so we have to fundamentally understand that, and, and that’s why, as Democrats, I, this is not, you know, I’m not here for forgiveness, but I get why, when I was out there stumping for Biden, and I revere that man, and we’ll have his back till my last breath. I do. And I’ll never regret a day out there, but I was, you know, I was defending the economy’s booming, inflation’s cooling, you know, best jobs market since 1960s lowest unemployment for black women and Hispanics, and talking about industrial policy that’s worker-centered, and the four big, you know, that’s but people weren’t feeling it and, you know, Trump’s making the same damn mistake, and it’s because they weren’t experiencing it. We don’t live in the aggregate, we don’t.

Trump was asked about the comments on Wednesday, where he appeared to shrug off the statement, saying, Vance will “do very well” if he wins the GOP nomination for president.

“We have a lot of very talented people,” he added. “We’re doing a lot, and JD is a very talented guy.”

WATCH:

Reporter: Gavin Newsom is on Capitol Hill today. He says that he doesn’t think JD Vance has what it takes to come after you. What’s your response to that?

Trump: Well, look, we’ve done a lot, and JD is very talented. He’s a smart guy. He’ll do very well if it’s, if it’s JD. We have a lot of very talented people. So, I think hopefully we’re going to leave something that’s going to be real easy to run. We’re doing, we’re doing a lot. We’re doing a lot, and JD is a very talented guy.
