16 should have been turned over to ICE.

Via Breaking 911:

U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) Enforcement and Removal Operations (ERO) Newark Field Office arrested 37 individuals during a five-day operation that concluded Friday, as part of the agency’s ongoing public safety efforts. The operation targeted criminal aliens who were previously incarcerated at the Middlesex County Jail (MCJ), and who were subsequently released to the community by MCJ, without honoring the ICE detainer or advising ICE of their release. The operation also targeted other criminal aliens residing in Middlesex County.

Of those arrested, 16 subjects had been previously released by MCJ without honoring the ICE detainer and 78% had prior criminal convictions or pending criminal charges.

“ERO New Jersey will continue to enforce ICE’s commitment to public safety,” said Ruben Perez, acting Field Office Director of ERO in Newark. “Middlesex county, which aspires to be a ‘sanctuary county’ by protecting criminal aliens, in the process assists criminals in undermining federal law, and creates a dangerous environment in the community. It also overburdens local law enforcement. ICE will continue to execute its mission in such communities.”

The individuals arrested as part of the operation were nationals of Brazil, Dominican Republic, Ecuador, El Salvador, Guatemala, Haiti, Honduras, India, Ivory Coast, Mexico, Nigeria, Peru, and Turkey.

These individuals range from 21 to 68 years old and all were previously arrested or convicted of a variety of offenses. Some of the arrests and convictions included: aggravated criminal sexual contact, aggravated assault, DUI, hindering apprehension, endangering the welfare of a child, battery, theft, burglary, possession of a weapon, forgery, domestic violence assault, disorderly conduct, and illegal entry.

Charlotte is going to be chockful of protesters.

Via WBTV:

The Charlotte City Council voted 6-5 to approve bringing the 2020 Republican National Convention coming to the Queen City during a special meeting on Monday.

Mayor Vi Lyles, who called for the special meeting last week, said the purpose was to consider taking action regarding hosting the 2020 RNC. The action will be based on the Republican National Committee awarding Charlotte with the convention.

Ahead of Monday’s meeting, WBTV learned from multiple sources that there would be six “yes” votes at the meeting.

Council members Bokhari, Phipps, Eiselt, Mitchell, Larken and Driggs voted yes while Mayfield, Harlow, Winston, Ajmera, and Newton voted no.

There was also an open forum at the meeting to discuss the hosting the convention. Officials said 132 speakers signed up to speak. Each speaker was granted one minute to speak.

The meeting began at 2 p.m. at the Government Center in uptown. Charlotte Attorney Robert E. Hagemann outlined the city’s right to terminate the RNC contract by March 1, 2020, if the $50 million grant is not given. No city has ever had this right.[…]

Nearly an hour into the meeting, the speakers still seemed to be split right down the middle. Each gave a reason for their support or objection to bringing the convention to Charlotte.

Proponents argued the economic impact would be substantial, and it would be a chance to show our city off. Those opposed said it would be a safety issue and supporting a president with divisive rhetoric.

After all the speakers said their piece, the council members themselves voiced their opinions and voted “yes” or “no” to bringing the convention to Charlotte.

The council ultimately voted 6-5 to accept the 2020 RNC upon the committee’s approval.

Deportations is what counts.

Via Washington Examiner:

The National Guard’s deployment to the southwest border in mid-April has led to 10,805 “deportable alien arrests” of people who illegally entered the United States from Mexico, a U.S. Customs and Border Protection spokeswoman said Monday.

Because guardsmen are military personnel and not law enforcement officers, they cannot apprehend illegal immigrants. But CBP officers and Border Patrol agents apprehended thousands of people that guardsmen helped point out.

The National Guard’s presence also helped lead to the interception of more than 3,300 others who were turned back before they crossed into the U.S., CBP press secretary Corry Schiermeyer said in an email to the Washington Examiner. The Guard’s deployment has also led to an additional 11,686 pounds of marijuana being seized as a result of their work.

There are 1,601 National Guard troops at the border assisting with various surveillance, maintenance, and related operations. That number could tick up considerably if the 4,000 National Guard troops President Trump approved on April 4 are called on in a future request from CBP.

You expect a lifeguard to save someone from drowning, but what about a pair of 6-year-olds?

What started as a fun family vacation turned into a story this family will never forget.

Twin boys from Bowling Green saved a toddler from the deep end of a hotel pool in Florida.

“We are so proud of them we always want them to help others when they can but the fact that they saved a little girl’s life is amazing, especially at 6-years-old,” said their mother Amy Walters.

The family of five was on vacation in Florida when twin brothers Peyton and Bryant Switzer, noticed something wasn’t right.

“Her head was under the water,” said Peyton.

“The toddler little girl sprinted behind and ran to the deep end and jumped in and that’s where the twins were playing,” said DJ Deiter, Amy’s fiancee. “As soon as she was in there they realized that she was in trouble because she was starting to sink and splash around.”

So without hesitation, the little pint-sized heroes sprung into action.

“She ran over to the steps at the deep end and she jumped in, and Peyton jumped in and then put his arm around her and then he [brought] her to the ladder and I helped her out,” said Bryant.

The boys were able to pull the girl to the pool ladder and help her out of the water safely where she was met by her mother.

The family said they credit swim lessons the twins took at the Bowling Green City Pool, which equipped them with the knowledge to react and save the young girl’s life.

Via My San Antonio:

Two security experts from the Department of Energy’s Idaho National Laboratory drove to San Antonio, Texas, in March 2017 with a sensitive mission: to retrieve dangerous nuclear materials from a nonprofit research lab there.

Their task, according to documents and interviews, was to ensure that the radioactive materials did not fall into the wrong hands on the way back to Idaho, where the government maintains a stockpile of nuclear explosive materials for the military and others.

To ensure they got the right items, the specialists from Idaho brought radiation detectors and small samples of dangerous materials to calibrate them: specifically, a plastic-covered disk of plutonium, a material that can be used to fuel nuclear weapons, and another of cesium, a highly radioactive isotope that could potentially be used in a so-called “dirty” radioactive bomb.

But when they stopped at a Marriott hotel just off Highway 410, in a high-crime neighborhood filled with temp agencies and ranch homes, they left those sensors on the back seat of their rented Ford Expedition. When they awoke the next morning, the window had been smashed and the special valises holding these sensors and nuclear materials had vanished.

Thinking of her too. Hope she’s in jail by her next birthday.

Via Daily Wire:

On Monday, CNN contributor and Temple University professor Marc Lamont-Hill decided he wanted to celebrate the birthday of an accused cop-killer.

And the full quote on Instagram:

Thinking about Assata Shakur on her 71st birthday. She wrote the second book that changed (and saved) my life. She taught me about the value and power of Freedom Dreams. She showed me the beauty of struggle. And she proved that “a wall is just a wall. and nothing more at all. It can be broken down.” I pray for her continued safety and protection. I continue to work to demonstrate her innocence. And I implore the State to stop prosecuting an unjust and unfair campaign against one of our most treasured Freedom Fighters. Thank you Mama Assata. Wishing you 100 more ears! #palenquequeen#handsoffassata #freeallpoliticalprisoners#everysingleone

When are they going to get to the Podestas?

Via Free Beacon:

The Department of Justice on Monday announced charges against a Russian national for conspiracy to act as an agent of the Russian government while influencing American political organizations and politicians.

The DOJ said it arrested Maria Butina on July 15 for working at the behest of a high-level Russian government official in order to create inroads for him with unnamed Americans and American political organizations. She is accused of lobbying and advocating on behalf of the Russian government without registering as a foreign agent.

“From as early as 2015 and continuing through at least February 2017, Butina worked at the direction of a high-level official in the Russian government who was previously a member of the legislature of the Russian Federation and later became a top official at the Russian Central Bank,” the DOJ said in a press release. “This Russian official was sanctioned by the U.S. Department of the Treasury, Office of Foreign Assets Control in April 2018.”

The complaint lists myriad connections and meetings that Butina made with unnamed Americans and American political organizations as well as detailed transcripts of her communications with the high-level Russian government official. They detail Butina’s trips to the National Prayer Breakfast and an unnamed gun-rights conference as well as her retelling of her activities to the government official.

Democratic Tennessee Rep. Steve Cohen on Monday called for the “military folks” to save America from President Donald Trump after Trump’s much-criticized press conference with Russian President Vladimir Putin.

“Where are our military folks? The Commander in Chief is in the hands of our enemy!” Cohen wrote on Twitter, using language suggestive of a military coup.

Settle down you hack.

Donald Trump’s press conference performance in Helsinki rises to & exceeds the threshold of “high crimes & misdemeanors.” It was nothing short of treasonous. Not only were Trump’s comments imbecilic, he is wholly in the pocket of Putin. Republican Patriots: Where are you???

Low IQ calling someone else dumb?

Via Daily Caller:

Democratic Rep. Maxine Waters claimed that President Trump doesn’t know the name of his own wife in a recent speech.

San Francisco Chronicle reports that Waters told the California Democratic Party’s women’s caucus, “He’s over there supposedly meeting on NATO. He doesn’t know a darn thing about it.”

“He doesn’t even understand what GDP is. As a matter of fact, he doesn’t even know how to spell his own wife’s name,” she said.

Saturday on MSNBC, Rep. Maxine Waters (D-CA) said President Donald Trump criticizes former President Barack Obama because “he’s jealous of Obama and his administration.”

When asked about Trump tweeting that President Obama should have done more about Russian’s interfering in our elections, Waters said, “First of all, let me say this: If the president wrote out at some point and said the sky is falling and it is Obama’s fault, and everybody knows he likes to blame Obama for any and everything that he can come up with. And in addition to that, it is very clear that he’s jealous of Obama and his administration and the fact that he was able to do so well.”

”And so he’ll keep blaming him over and over again, trying to undo the public policy such as the ACA put in place by Obama and so everybody kind of knows who he is at this point,” she added “He’s defined himself pretty well. I don’t know why anybody takes him seriously.”

Straight to DVD.

Via Mediaiate:

Director Rob Reiner‘s new movie Shock and Awe is a movie about journalists.

According to the movie’s description on Rotten Tomatoes, the film is “based on the true events of Knight Ridder journalists who were the only ones who ‘got it right’ in the lead-up to the 2003 Iraq War when they questioned the true nature of the Bush White House’s justification for the conflict.”

Yet, you would be forgiven for not knowing that because this weekend practically no one bought tickets to see the film, which opened in limited release on July 13th.

According to Box Office Mojo, for the weekend of July 13-15th, Shock and Awe grossed a measly $41,000.

In contrast, Hotel Transylvania 3: Summer Vacation, which topped ticket sales earned $44,100,00.

Now granted, the latter is a big budget kids movie, but in comparison, Shock and Awe earned about the same amount on its first weekend as Show Dogs did for the same period. That film has been running for 9 weeks and ranks 17 percent on the Rotten Tomatometer.

So far, the Tomatometer has Shock and Awe at 36 percent but with less than 30 reviews.

People envision “unaccompanied children” as toddlers. But it includes teenagers up to 18, so you can get gang members and cartel workers as well. Many detained cross by themselves and work for the cartels.

Via Daily Wire:

After an over three-year delay on a Freedom of Information Act (FOIA) request, government watchdog group Judicial Watch finally received pertinent documents from the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services (HHS) regarding Unaccompanied Alien Children (UAC) processed by the Obama administration. The documents reveal that migrant minors allowed into the U.S. under Obama’s tenure included admitted drug smugglers, murderers, MS-13 members, and prostitutes.

According to Judaical Watch, “Reports include 1,000 significant incident reports, revealing UAC ‘refugees’ admitting to murder for drug cartels, prostitution, and sexual predation.”

He wasn’t shy about calling out the empty heroes on the left, despite being a liberal himself.

Via Daily Wire:

In an interview published in Popula magazine weeks after he tragically hung himself in a hotel room, celebrity chef Anthony Bourdain spoke frankly about a wide range of topics and people, including the “entitled, rapey, gropey, grabby, disgusting” Bill Clinton, his enabler wife Hillary, and the disappointing Barack Obama. He also described how he imagined the death of Harvey Weinstein, whom Bourdain’s girlfriend has accused of sexually assaulting her.

Though Bourdain’s interview with journalist Maria Bustillos took place back in February, Bustillos finally published it on Sunday. Its content is not for the faint of heart, as Bourdain clearly felt free to be raw about some hot-button issues and famous people in his free-wheeling two-and-half-hour conversation with the journalist, a conversation that took place fittingly in one of his favorite Irish pubs.
