47 illegal aliens were killed by being locked in a semi and left to die in the heat. They've arrested the illegal aliens that were armed and driving the rig. These people were let in by Brandon who wants everyone to come here. Brandon, these deaths are on you.

Two Mexican nationals living in the U.S. illegally have been charged with firearm offenses after dozens of migrants were found dead in an abandoned semi-truck in Texas earlier this week.

Juan Francisco D’Luna-Bilbao and Juan Claudio D’Luna-Mendez, who both allegedly overstayed B-2 visas, have been charged through separate criminal complaints as illegal immigrants in possession of firearms, according to court documents filed Tuesday in the U.S. District Court in the Western District of Texas.

Federal prosecutors have asked that both men be held without bond, The Hill reported. They could face a maximum penalty of 10 years in prison and a $250,000 fine if convicted on the current charges.


A third man, believed to be the big rig's driver, was also reportedly arrested and charged with human smuggling."

We have a new Supreme Court Justice, the Hon. Ketanji Brown Jackson.

"Ketanji Brown Jackson is officially the newest Supreme Court justice, taking her oaths at a swearing in ceremony Thursday.

Justice Jackson is now the first Black woman on the high court.

Jackson was sworn in a few minutes after noon, which was when the retirement of her predecessor, Justice Stephen Breyer, became effective. Breyer himself helped lead the ceremony, which took place in the court’s West Conference Room. Breyer administered the judicial oath, and Chief Justice John Roberts administered the constitutional oath, both of which are required for all justices. Jackson's husband Patrick Jackson and their two daughters were in attendance."

I feel sorry for this woman, who probably had the best of intentions. OTOH, war is real, not an event to particpate in.

"An elite sniper and former model has been killed in a Russian airstrike in Ukraine.

Thalita do Valle, 39, died while fighting in the city of Kharkiv on June 30.

She had joined the war effort alongside former Brazilian Army soldier Douglas Burigo.

Douglas, 40, also died in last week’s airstrike, reportedly after he went into a bunker to try find Thalita.

The pair had travelled from Brazil to support Ukrainian forces.

Thalita had previous experience in warzones, and had fought against the Islamic State in Iraq.

At this time, she received special sniper training as she trained alongside the Peshmergas, the armed military forces of the independent Kurdistan region of Iraq.

She reportedly used these skills in Ukraine, where she was responsible for providing cover from advancing Russian froces."

Biden is shipping oil from our strategic reserve to *China*? Time for him to go.

"
Several GOP lawmakers sharply criticized President Joe Biden on Thursday following reports of emergency U.S. oil being sent to China and other nations.


More than five million barrels of oil released from the Strategic Petroleum Reserve (SPR) have been diverted to European and Asian nations instead of U.S. refiners, Reuters reported Wednesday, citing customs data. Biden has ordered the Department of Energy to release a total of about 260 million barrels of oil stored in the SPR over the last eight months to combat record fuel prices hitting American consumers.

"The American people deserve answers as to why our emergency energy reserves are being sent to foreign adversaries like the Chinese Communist Party, compromising our energy security and national security," House Energy and Commerce Committee Ranking Member Cathy McMorris Rodgers told Fox News Digital in a statement.

"President Biden needs to remember that our strategic energy reserves are for emergencies, not to cover-up bad policies. America needs to flip the switch and increase our capacity to produce and refine oil here at home," she continued. "Now is not the time to use our strategic stockpile.""

Our First Lady said Hispanics in this country are as unique as "breakfast tacos". BTW, I wouldn't say that "breakfast tacos" are Hispanic, they're more of an MexAnglo fusion cuisine seen in the Southwest US.

I suppose what bothers me more is her speaking at an event where pushing "Latinx" is a thing. The Spanish language has gender incorporated into the very structure of the language, and changing latina/latino to latinx isn't just changing a noun, it's destroying the structure of the language. In pushing for gender neutralism, I think the lefties are going to do more damage than they think in ways that aren't yet appreciated.

""Raul helped build this organization with the understanding that the diversity of this community, as distinct as the bodegas of the Bronx, as beautiful as the blossoms of Miami and as unique as the breakfast tacos here in San Antonio, is your strength," she said. "

Biden has covid again, shown here not wearing a mask. Biden, btw, has been vaxxed up the wazoo, too, which is kind of a bummer for those of us who believe in the efficacy of vaccines.

Best wishes for your recovery. On an unrelated topic, having a sickness is a great reason to resign from a high pressure job.

"WASHINGTON — President Biden tested positive on Thursday for the coronavirus, raising health concerns for the 79-year-old president and underscoring how the virus remains a persistent threat in a country trying to put the pandemic in the past."

Pretty funny, the above link shows Biden wandering off to chase an ice cream truck during a speech, and Reuters decided to fact check it to prove it was a hoax - there wasn't really the sound of an ice cream truck.

IOW, Biden DID wander off aimlessly in the middle of his wife's speech, just not because of an ice cream truck. That's better, right?

 

Kind of like what Trump did with Qasem Soleimani?

On Al-Zawahiri, we've known about him for *years*, apparently. Why was he killed now? They don't say he was plotting something new, so was he an actual terror threat to us, was this revenge, or... was it to distract people from the administration's failures prior to the midterm elections?

 

Oh, I've got no problems with him being dead. My point was why did they kill him *now* if we've known where he was for some time?

I don't think you'll get an answer to that from CNN, but I do think there is one. Al Zawahiri apparently moved back to downtown Kabul, and if Al Queda leaders are now out in the open living freely in Afghanistan it would make Biden's sudden and universally condemned pullout of Afghanistan look like a mistake.

I guess that's my problem with killing him. It doesn't look like it was done to avenge the deaths of Americans, but rather to protect Biden's image. I don't think *that* is a good reason to launch missiles at a foreign nation. So, "death of Al Zawahiri" = good, "reason for death of Al Zawahiri *at this time and place*" = bad.

 

Yeah, that's the trouble, isn't it? The whole Dem lineup is bad.
