Report: Green New Deal Will Impose A $75,000 Per Year Cost On Swing-State Households | The Daily Caller:

Americans in nearly a dozen swing states could expect to spend roughly $75,000 per year if the Green New Deal is ever implemented, according to a report Wednesday from a conservative nonprofit group.
The Green New Deal would cost households an average of between $74,287 and $76,683 in Colorado, Michigan and Pennsylvania, among others, a report from the Competitive Enterprise Institute noted. CEI worked with Power the Future and the Wisconsin Institute for Law and Liberty on the report.
“Right now, our booming national economy and record low unemployment rate is driven by abundant, domestic, reliable, and inexpensive energy produced by millions of men and women across the country,” Daniel Turner, executive director of Power the Future, said in a statement.

AP Confirms: Democrats Are Lying to the Public About Coronavirus Readiness

AP Confirms: Democrats Are Lying to the Public About Coronavirus Readiness:

An Associated Press fact check confirms what Breitbart News reported earlier this week: that Democrat presidential candidates are falsely claiming that President Donald Trump cut funding and personnel needed to fight coronavirus.
On Tuesday, Breitbart News fact-checked “mostly false” claims by former New York City Mayor Mike Bloomberg during the Democrat debate in South Carolina. Bloomberg claimed that Trump had “fired” a pandemic specialist at the White House, and “defunded” the Centers for Disease Control (CDC). The implication: Trump was to blame for the spread of coronavirus — even though there have been just over a dozen cases and no fatalities in the U.S.

Border chief: Wall cuts illegal crossings 80% - Washington Times

Border chief: Wall cuts illegal crossings 80% - Washington Times:

A 20-mile section of new border wall built near El Paso, Texas, cut illegal crossings by more than 80%, the government’s top border official told Congress on Thursday.
Mark Morgan, acting commissioner of Customs and Border Protection, said the key is not just the border wall but the entire system being built, with roads and lighting and, in some cases, multiple layers of fencing.
He said that’s giving agents more time to get to spots where breakthroughs happen, and when they can respond they can make arrests or force people to retreat back into Mexico.

Revealing Bernie’s dark side — one 1980s quote at a time - Glenn Beck

Revealing Bernie’s dark side — one 1980s quote at a time - Glenn Beck:

For starters, Sanders had (during the height of the Soviet Union) a very cozy relationship with people who openly advocated for Marxism and communism. He was an elector for the Socialist Workers Party and promoted the party's presidential candidates in 1980 and 1984.
To say the Socialist Workers Party was radical would be a tremendous understatement. It was widely known SWP was a communist organization mostly dedicated to the teachings of Marx and Leon Trotsky, one of the leaders of the Russian Revolution.
Among other radical things I've discovered in interviews Sanders conducted with the SWP's newspaper — appropriately named The Militant (seriously, you can't make this stuff up) — is a statement by Sanders published in June 1981 suggesting that some police departments "are dominated by fascists and Nazis," a comment that is just now being rediscovered for the first time in decades.

Trump scores major victory in immigrant war - WND:

Courts previously gave President Trump a big victory in his plan to protect the United States by enforcing its borders, by allowing him to exclude some people from parts of the world where terror is created and exported.
Now he's won a second battle in the war, with a decision from an appeals court that the Department of Justice is allowed to halt funding for cities and states where officials declare themselves "sanctuaries" and refuse to cooperate with federal enforcement against illegal aliens.
The Hill reported three judges on the 2nd U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals unanimously reversed a trial court's decision that the conditions couldn't be applied to funding.

Trump's 'Public Charge' Immigration Rule Upheld by Supreme Court | News and Politics

Trump's 'Public Charge' Immigration Rule Upheld by Supreme Court | News and Politics:

Donald Trump's rule changes the so-called "public charge" rule that withholds green cards from immigrants dependent on government services. Federal immigration law says that immigrants desiring permanent legal status can be denied if they are likely to become a "public charge."
Previously the government defined "public charge" as anyone receiving cash benefits. Those getting food stamps or housing assistance were exempt. The rule change means that green cards will only go to those who are free of dependency on government.
