Last week’s heatwaves in southern Europe would have been “virtually impossible” without humans altering the climate, reports the BBC, quoting model-produced work rushed to press by World Weather Attribution (WWA). Humans caused the spell of Mediterranean summer heat to be 2.5°C higher, it was said. This latest study confirms what we knew before, says frequent BBC contributor and WWA founder Dr. Friederike Otto. More to the point, last week’s coverage of these heatwaves confirmed what we knew before – the BBC will pull out all the stops to promote weather fear in the cause of the collectivist Net Zero project.

Under US Immigration law, immigrants and illegal aliens are two different categories. The slang term "undocumented immigrant" you use is not a correct legal term. Under the definitions in the United States Code, to be any type of "immigrant" one has to be going through the lawful immigration process. Those who just jump the border obviously are not doing so. The correct legal term for them as set out in our immigration law is ILLEGAL ALIEN.

The discussion here is about the illegal aliens, NOT about immigrants. We should stick to the correct legal terms here, not leftwing slang.

You raise one point that I have not seen mentioned. The Biden regime is trying to grant mass "parole" to fake asylum seekers. This could expand the welfare rolls even more to illegal aliens. This may make the welfare problem of illegal aliens in the United States even worse.

Under no circumstances should taxpayers money be spent on these scofflaws who wantonly violate our immigration laws and / or fraudulently try to claim asylum that they are not entitled to.

The truth:
The 1996 welfare law created two categories of immigrants for benefits eligibility purposes: “qualified” and “not qualified.” The “qualified” immigrant category includes:

lawful permanent residents, or LPRs (people with green cards)
refugees, people granted asylum or withholding of deportation/removal, and conditional entrants
people granted parole by the U.S. Department of Homeland Security (DHS) for a period of at least one year
Cuban and Haitian entrants
certain abused immigrants, their children, and/or their parents [4]
certain survivors of trafficking [5]
individuals residing in the U.S. pursuant to a Compact of Free Association (COFA) (for Medicaid purposes only)
All other immigrants, including undocumented immigrants, as well as many people who are lawfully present in the U.S., are considered “not qualified.

This guy is nothing but a pawn for the far right QANON side of the republican party. He's a media whore, and he should seriously just disappear.

Here is another lie from the climate alarmists, including the UN. As they whine about how hot it is this summer, they neglect to tell you that the percentage of the US that has reached 100 degrees F this summer is only 18%, which is a record low. The record high was in 1936, when it was 79%. 1936 was in the middle of the Great Depression, when industrial activity including production of CO2 had cratered.

They ought to call it Fort Cancel Culture, because changing the name of Fort Bragg is nothing but despicable far left cancel culture against southern heritage. It is utterly disgraceful that RINO Congressman Greg Murphy participated in this cancel culture. Can't we get a real conservative who opposes cancel culture to run for that seat? Greg Murphy panders too much to "political correctness" of the far left.

As ususal, LIttle Bobbie, you are one of those leftwing race hustlers who want to inject race into everything. You are one of those racists who want to stamp out "whiteness". That makes YOU the most racist person posting on this site.

If there is cheating in elections, then those election results should not be accepted, like the Orange Revolution in Ukraine, or the recent successful challenge to the Berlin state elections in the Constitutional Court in Germany. The problem is that our courts do not have the backbone to stop these things that the European courts do. Marc Elias filed lawasuits all over the country to screw up election procedures to make it easier for the Democrats to cheat, using Covid for cover. Trump raised the alarm about what was going on before the election, and there were at least some attempts with loawsuits to undo the damage that Elias lawsuits and Democrat election officials were doing do our election process, but the courts did not want to get involved. Then there was all the money that Zuckerburg and Soros spent, not to push candidates but to manipulate the voting process.

It was Biden's weakness that caused Putin to go ahead with his invasion of Ukraine, first shown by the disastrous Afghanistan withdrawal, then by Biden making comments that made it appear he was okay with Putin invading, like saying "Putin's got to do something". Trump, on the other hand supplied Ukraine with real weapons in contrast to Obama only sending non-lethal equipment.

It is also worth mentioning that when Russia first invaded, the Biden regime offered to evacuate Zelensky from the country, and Zelensky shamed them by replying, "I don't need a ride, I need ammunition". Until Zelensky stood up to fight, Biden seemed okay with Russia taking over Ukraine.

As to how Americans see Trump and Biden, on weakness and strength, the major British news magazine, "The Economist" just did a poll on that. 54% of Americans see Trump as a strong leader while 60% of Americans see Biden as a weak leader.

Denial is not a river in Egypt, Lyin' Bob. Your common "panties in a twist" blanket denials of facts are ALWAYS lies.
