A small, bipartisan group of senators have been quietly sketching out a possible new border deal for early 2025, Axios has learned.
Why it matters: Border and immigration reform is the white whale of Congress. It's also President-elect Trump's No. 1 priority.
Top Senate Republicans plan to move quickly on a border package, using the budget reconciliation process to get it done.
"We have been briefing you regularly that there are approximately 900 U.S. troops deployed to Syria," Pentagon Press Secretary Brig. Gen. Ryder told reporters during a press briefing on Thursday. "In light of the situation in Syria, and in significant interest, we’ve recently learned that those numbers were higher."
Ryder asked to look into the numbers and said he learned on Thursday that there are about 2,000 U.S. troops in Syria.
"It
was explained to me these additional forces are considered temporary
rotational forces that deploy to meet shifting mission requirements,
whereas the core 900 deployers are on longer term deployments," he
continued. "As you know, for many of our deployments, numbers will
fluctuate from time to time, but given that this number is significantly
higher than what we've been briefing, I wanted to let you know, as soon
as I found out this information." Read more and see video here: https://www.foxnews.com/world/pentagon-says-number-us-troops-syria-much-higher-previously-reported

The article is a screed, a rage piece over the 2024 loss, Kamala Harris’ incompetence, and the Democrats’ continued journey into the political wilderness if they don’t find some chutzpah. Oh, the Left is raging, but for all the wrong reasons. Anyway, it’s quite the piece, but the whole premise is undercut by one sentence (via The Nation) [emphasis mine]:
House Minority Leader Hakeem Jeffries, D-N.Y., while speaking at the U.S. Capitol in Washington, D.C., called out House Republicans for breaking a bipartisan agreement to fund the government and avoid a government shutdown, accusing them of hurting everyday Americans across the country.
On Wednesday, House GOP leaders scrambled to search for a backup plan after reaching an initial bipartisan deal to avoid a partial government shutdown this Friday was buried by a barrage of opposition from conservative leaders. Read more and see Xs and videos here.

Gotlin, of Gotlin & Jaffe, successfully tried a mental health defense in 2014 while representing a man accused of fatally stabbing his mother.
"My guess is they should try some kind of psychiatric defense where it mitigates his intent to do this in the hopes that instead of getting convicted of murder, he gets convicted of manslaughter," he told Fox News Digital. "Even if he gets the maximum, which is eight to 24 years ... he could still get out. You know, you may spend 15, 16 to 18 years in, but at least one day you're going to get out."

It’s been days since social media was frantic about mysterious drones flying over the skies of New Jersey. These aerials have now infiltrated the airspaces of other states—they shut down a US Air Force base in Ohio this week. Many theories exist because the Biden administration refuses to address the concerns adequately. New Jersey mayors are livid over the lack of response to the drone crisis. In a conference call with the Biden White House, one mayor alleged an unidentified drone the size of a vehicle hummed over their house.
Now, after his national security team has glossed over some reports and added that there’s nothing to fear, Biden has delivered remarks about the situation. First, it makes no sense. Second, could you imagine if this man had another four years in office? He’s cooked.
The ousted and outgoing president said there’s nothing nefarious and that there are a lot of drones out there.
“I think one started, and they all got - everybody wanted to get in their deal,” he said.
Deal? What is this Mars Attacks?

Civilians and lawmakers have reported drone sightings in New Jersey, Pennsylvania, New York, Connecticut, Ohio and other states, with local and federal law enforcement offering little information about the aerial activity, most of which has been spotted at night. Some of the drones are as large as 6 feet in diameter, according to New Jersey state Rep. Dawn Fantasia, who was briefed on the matter last week.
"The
concern is definitely valid. One thing I do believe, I believe the
government knows the source of these drones, and I believe the source of
these drones is from inside the U.S., especially the larger drones,"
Col. William Dunn, president of Strategic Resilience Group, a government
consulting group, told Fox News Digital. "It's very difficult to fly an
airplane the size of a vehicle into the United States without being
detected, so I believe the drones originate from inside the U.S." Read more and see video here: https://www.foxnews.com/us/drones-spotted-across-northeast-likely-coming-from-inside-us-military-expert-says
Three-term Detroit Mayor Mike Duggan, viewed for some time as very likely to seek the governor’s office, reportedly surprised the state’s body politic by announcing he will do so as an independent.
“I went to Lansing and built relationships with Democrats and Republicans. We took our neighborhoods out of the darkness of burned-out streetlights and we lit the entire city to the national standard… and reduced Detroit’s unemployment rate to its lowest rate in more than 30 years,” Duggan said in his campaign launch video.
“The current system forces people to choose sides that find solutions. I want to see if I can change that.” Read more and see videos here.

"The next step is targeted assassinations," said Jose Gustavo Arocha, a former lieutenant colonel in the Venezuelan army. "That is what has happened in Venezuela, what is happening in Latin America and that will happen here in the U.S."
Tren de Aragua, which means "Train from Aragua," is a massive criminal and terrorist organization that originated a decade ago in a Venezuelan prison. In addition to Venezuela, the group has already established a significant presence in Southern American countries, including Colombia, Peru and Chile and is present in 30 major U.S. cities.
According to Arocha, who fled the country after being imprisoned by
socialist Venezuelan leader Nicolas Maduro for eight months, TdA is a "state-sponsored, Maduro regime organization," formed and trained by the Venezuelan government to sow chaos, violence and discord throughout the Western hemisphere. Read more and see videos here.

James Ward, a Jersey Shore realtor, shared video on Facebook that he said showed "SUV-size drones" above Island Beach State Park taken Sunday. It's difficult to judge their size in the clip, which showed a number of lights hovering in the sky.
"Dozens of SUV-size drones in all directions," the caption read. "Emerging at same time and flying over the ocean and then heading in different directions – what do you think?"
"A good shotgun will fix that problem," one commenter replied.
"Why
hasn't anyone shot one down to look for a serial number to trace it
back to the operator?" another wrote. "I would think that could provide a
clue." To read more, see X and videos copy and paste this link: https://www.foxnews.com/us/drones-mystery-new-jersey-homeowners-threaten-take-matters-own-hands-govt-doesnt-act

He’s the most investigated person to ever run for high office—and the Democrats still couldn’t stop him. They slapped him with over 100 criminal charges, and he beat them all. Donald J. Trump is flat-out unstoppable, and the 2024 election capped off the greatest political comeback ever. There’s nothing that compares. If Time hadn’t reportedly selected him, it would have been laughably hilarious. Oh, and I forgot—it’s going to be announced officially later today (via Politico):
“You’re telling me we don’t know what the hell these drones are in New Jersey?” asked Rep. Tony Gonzales (R-TX). Read more, see Xs and videos here.

"He was just threatening to kill people," Penny said in a preview clip that aired on "The Five" Tuesday. "He was threatening to go to jail forever, go to jail for the rest of his life, and now I'm on the ground with him. I'm on my back in a very vulnerable position…If I'd just let him go, now I'm on my back and he can just turn around and start doing what he said – to me…killing, hurting."
Penny was arrested in May 2023
nearly two weeks after he was questioned and released following a deadly
encounter with Neely, who was high on drugs and threatening to kill
people on a Manhattan F train when the 26-year-old architecture student
grabbed him in a headlock from behind. Read more and see video here.

Daniel Penny has been acquitted in the death of Jordan Neely.
A jury found Penny not guilty of criminally negligent homicide Monday following four-and-a-half days of deliberations and a month-long trial brought by Manhattan DA Alvin Bragg.Penny, who was stoic through the entirety of the trial, let out his first smile when the forewoman read the verdict.
Neely's father, Andre Zachary, who has filed a lawsuit against Penny, had to be escorted out of the courtroom for his outburst.
Jurors
told the judge Friday morning they couldn't come to a unanimous
conclusion on the top charge of second-degree manslaughter, which
carried a maximum sentence of 15 years in prison. However, Judge Maxwell
Wiley directed them to continue mulling over the decision until they
could all agree on whether to convict or acquit Penny. Read more, see X and juror verdict sheet here.
Coming in the guise of what I call “veiled violence” as opposed to actual “physical violence,” I take this to mean it's when those in power willfully strip away “We the Peoples” rights and freedoms never mind that no blood is shed. How so? One needs only look to both the totalitarian and authoritarian policies of the Biden/Harris administration in regards to our southern border and the covid pandemic...policies directly in violation of not only our Constitution...for nowhere does the Constitution say that we must take in or give refuge to criminals, and nowhere does the Constitution give authority to start initiating what still seems to be a deliberate yet somewhat veiled “culling of the American herd.” Read entire article here.

As we close out 2024 with new found hope for our beloved America, thanks of course to Donald J. Trump being elected as our nation's 47th president, I can't help but reflect back on certain key happenings under the Biden/Harris administration...happenings that caused great harm to our country and to “We the People” as well. Cleverly orchestrated and highly manipulative in nature, what unfolded “policy wise” these past four years seemed to be done so as to cause the most harm to as many Americans as possible.
Policies deliberately enacted to cause harm made me think back to a British movie called “V for Vendetta.” Released here in the U.S. on December 11, 2005, this movie...originally written as a graphic novel by Alan Moore and David Lloyd back in the 1980's...saw its main character “V” being somewhat based on Guy Fawkes and his failed “Gunpowder Plot” against the British monarchy. The main story line itself revolved around the aftermath of a “global nuclear catastrophe” that left much of the world uninhabitable and in chaos with its main character“V” hoping to serve as the conduit to get the people to “wake up” and take a stand against what had become unabashed “totalitarianism and authoritarianism”...sort of like the stand the American people took this past November 5th.
Coming in the guise of what I call “veiled violence” as opposed to actual “physical violence,” I take this to mean it's when those in power willfully strip away “We the Peoples” rights and freedoms never mind that no blood is shed. How so? One needs only look to both the totalitarian and authoritarian policies of the Biden/Harris administration in regards to our southern border and the covid pandemic...policies directly in violation of not only our Constitution...for nowhere does the Constitution say that we must take in or give refuge to criminals, and nowhere does the Constitution give authority to start initiating what still seems to be a deliberate yet somewhat veiled “culling of the American herd.”
First, those entering our country illegally are indeed committing an overt “criminal action” simply courtesy of their very presence on American soil for they knowingly and willingly broke our “on the books” immigration laws in coming here...with the Biden/Harris administration not only allowing this to happen but encouraging and egging this action on. And whether they admit to it or not in Biden and Harris basically opening our southern border... opened our country...to a free-for-all invasion...we see a willing invasion that reeks of their “aiding and abetting the enemy”...an all encompassing “criminal element” type enemy...which constitutes treason of sorts if you ask me. In fact, the very act of putting criminal invaders wants and needs before the wants and needs of American citizens...the very act of willingly and knowingly putting American lives in danger...can be nothing less than treason what with Trump's first term “America First” policies now having been manipulated to morph into “America Last” policies...this is a crime in and of itself. Now as for the covid pandemic...a pandemic and scare tactic all rolled into one neat little nasty package...a Democrat politically manufactured and propagandized pandemic that came replete with assorted greedy and willing government officials going along with a handful of corrupted doctors all in the name of money, power, and control...we see a pandemic not unlike the government manufactured bio-weapon in “V for Vendetta” with the only difference in our case being covid's victims were “We the People.” Simply, “We the People” became the recipients of not only a virus that actually needed an antidote and not a vaccine, but of forced mask mandates, lock downs, and a vaccine that is now proving to having possibly done way more harm than good. Just another example of the Biden/Harris administration seeming to parallel the fascist regime in the aforementioned movie.Remember, like those in power in “V for Vendetta,” today's Democrats quest to hold onto the reigns of power by any and all means possible is all consuming, as they alone, once Trump left office, set the rules as to how we were to live our lives...our Constitutionally given freedoms be damned...just as they were for the Brits in “V for Vendetta.”
Thankfully not all of us complied.
Also,“V” himself being a masked operative was now the key jump off point for England's “freedom movement”...a movement to overthrow what had truly become an all-encompassing fascist regime...a movement that started slow and was only now gaining a bit of momentum. In a way “V's” fictional movement, along with “V” himself, was actually not unlike both Donald J. Trump the man and the MAGA movement he helped to create in what was the here and now. How so...both the fictional “V” and Donald Trump the man successfully rose up against the stacked against them political odds along with the propagandists and naysayers of their respective times, while the movements they started continued to grow. And while“V” lost his life fighting for the cause he believed in, thankfully Trump survived the assassination attempts on his life...and know there indeed was more than just one such attempt. But the true bottom line in all that I've just said not only shadows the famous line “absolute power corrupts absolutely,” but also shows that while make-believe can sometimes be a mirror into reality, reality itself can either be manipulated to meet a political agenda or it can be the catalyst to open up an opportunity for change. In the case of the movie “V for Vendetta,” we will never know the final outcome of what the call for change did or did not bring, but in the case of both Donald J. Trump and our beloved America the call for change was sealed this past November 5th with our country now thankfully moving decidedly to the right.Does this mean that we as a nation are now home scot-free, and that these past four horrendous years can now be forgotten? No, it most assuredly does not for to forget the bad does not erase what was but could actually negate and alter one's history...a very dangerous and far reaching scenario indeed. I kind of know what Donald Trump would say as he gets to live to see history unfold, leaving me to wonder what “V” himself would say if he had so lived. Case closed.
