Law Enforcement: Border Patrol Agents Have Lost Operational Control, Awareness At Border

By Bethany Blankley (The Center Square)
While Department of Homeland Security Secretary Alejandro Mayorkas claims the southern border is secure and he has a plan in place for increased surges, those in law enforcement say the opposite is true. Not only have Border Patrol agents lost operational control of the border, they’ve also lost operational awareness and have no idea who is coming through, current and former Border Patrol agents told The Center Square.
In President Joe Biden’s first year in office, an estimated 1 million people entered the U.S. illegally and evaded capture, Border Patrol agents estimate. Known as “gotaways,” they aren’t included in the apprehension and enforcement data published by U.S. Customs and Border Pr …

Ukrainian president says peace talks close to collapse as battle rages in the east

Breadcrumb Trail Links PMN Business Author of the article: Reuters Natalia Zinets Article content KYIV — Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskiy said on Friday there was a high risk that peace talks with Moscow would end and U.S. lawmakers pledged to move fast on a plan to send as much as $33 billion to help Kyiv keep fighting Russia’s assault. U.N. Secretary-General Antonio Guterres had said during a visit to Kyiv on Thursday that intense discussions were underway to evacuate civilians from the steel works in Mariupol, which is under heavy Russian attack as part of an offensive in the south and east.

Article content One of the fighters holed up in the city, a major target of Russia’s invasion, told Reuters the comments gave him hope hundreds of civilians blocked with them at the plant for weeks would be evacuated after many failed attempts. Zelenskiy’s office had said an operation was planned to get civilians out of the plant on Friday but there was no sign of an evacuation as dusk fell. He later expressed pessimism over the prospect of continued peace talks with Russia, blaming public anger with what he said were atrocities by Russian troops. “People (Ukrainians) want to kill them. When that kind of attitude exists, it’s hard to talk about things,” Interfax quoted him as telling Polish journalists. Russian Foreign …

U.S., French, U.K. Nuclear Submarines Rendezvous In Scotland

The unusual multinational submarine gathering comes at a time of unprecedented tensions in Europe around Russia’s war in Ukraine.
byApr 28, 2022 9:37 PMThe U.K. Royal Navy’s main submarine base in Scotland appears to currently be hosting something of a small multinational submarine meet. Yesterday, U.S. Navy’s Virginia class nuclear-powered attack submarine USS Indiana was spotted heading in the direction of Her Majesty’s Naval Base Clyde. That came a day after one of the French Navy’s Rubis class submarines, another nuclear-powered attack type, the specific identity of which is unknown, was seen arriving in the area.None of the navies involved appear to have said anything specifically about the convergence of these submarines at Clyde. The base is home to the bulk of the Royal Navy’s submarine force, including its Vanguard class ballistic missile submarines and Astute class attack submarines, both of which are also nuclear powered.The USS Indiana’s stop there is to “strengthen cooperation between the United States and United Kingdom” and “demonstrate US capability, flexibility, and continuing commitment to NATO allies,” the Navy said, according to a report yesterday from U.K. Defence Journal. Indiana had left its homeport at Naval Submarine Base New London in Connecticut for what the Navy described simply as “routine operations” in January.Virginia class submarines, among other American types, regularly make stops in Clyde, which is one of a limited number of allied ports in Europe with the ability to handle visiting nuclear-powered submarines. French Rubis class submarines have called at the Royal Navy base before, including one spotted there in October 2021, but their presence is a much rarer occurrence. There were reports that the French boat that visited in October had its towed sonar array removed at the Royal Navy base for some reason.The back-to-back arrival of American and French submarines at Cylde could very well be just a coincidence. At the same time, the activities of submarine forces worldwide are typically relatively secretive affairs, so unusual public movements, such as American, French, and almost certainly British nuclear submarines all now being present at Clyde, often draw attentio …

Mike drop: Trump endorses Pence’s brother without mentioning veep

Former President Donald Trump endorsed Indiana Rep. Greg Pence for reelection, offering his coveted support without mentioning the congressman’s relation to Trump’s vice president, Mike Pence.
Trump praised Greg Pence, who is vying to be reelected to his seat representing Indiana’s 6th Congressional District, for his anti-abortion stances and support for strengthening Second Amendment rights.

“Greg is working hard to reverse Joe Biden’s disastrous record of out-of-control Inflation and restore the respect our Country deserves from abroad,” Trump said in a statement Friday. “He is Strong on the Border, Protects Life, Defends the Second Amendment, and Supports our brave Military and Vets. Greg Pence has my Complete and Total Endorsement!”
The endorsement comes as the relationship between Trump and Mike Pence appears to have frayed since the Capitol riot, a day in which the then vice pr …

Analysis-Russia’s Ukrainian quagmire providing tough lessons for China

By Greg Torode, Martin Quin Pollard and Yew Lun TianHONG KONG/BEIJING (Reuters) ‑From countering a Western “information war” during a Taiwan conflict to using “shock and awe” to swiftly subdue the island’s forces, Chinese strategists are soaking up lessons from Russia’s Ukrainian quagmire, diplomats, scholars and analysts say.Chinese military experts are discussing the conflict in private chat groups, offering their takes on Western involvement in Ukraine and Russia’s perceived failings, say two scholars and four Asian and Western diplomats who are in touch with Chinese strategists.Although their conclusions have yet to surface in official military journals or state media, Russia’s failure to quickly crush the Ukrainian military is a key topic — as are fears about how well …

BREAKING: Yet another inflation gauge hits a new 40-year high, wages trail

At least the Biden administration performs consistently on the economy. Consistently bad, especially for lower-income workers, who keep watching their buying power evaporate. A new report on a key inflation index also shows inflation raging at a 40-year high.CNBC’s Jeff Cox buries the lede a bit here:
A measure that the Federal Reserve focuses on to gauge inflation rose at a robust pace in March, likely cementing the central bank’s intention to raise interest rates by half a percentage in May.
The core personal consumption expenditures price index, which measures costs that consumers pay across a wide swath of items and accounts for how behavior changes in response to market dynamics, increased 5.2% from a year ago, according to the Bureau of Economic Analysis.
That was slightly below the 5.3% reading in February, which was the highest reading since April 1983.
Yes, except consumers don’t experience “core” inflation. They experience “full” inflation, an …

Biden’s ‘Disinfo’ Czar Mocked Over Viral Musical Video | The Daily Wire

The woman tapped by President Joe Biden to head his new “Disinformation Governance Board” drew widespread mockery on Twitter after a cringeworthy video surfaced of her singing about things she’s deemed fake news went viral.Nina Jankowicz, an apparent Harry Potter fan and author of “How To Lose the Information War: Russia, Fake News, and the Future of Conflict,” was named this week to head the controversial agency after a stint at the Wilson Center think tank. The video, aired on Fox News Channel’s “Tucker Carlson Tonight,” drew guffaws online, with actor James Woods declaring that it belongs in a time capsule and others wondering if it was a parody and pleading in vain to “unsee it.”This one absolutely has to go into the 2022 Time Capsule. #MinistryOfTruth pic.twitter.com/gww1JncUZW— James Woods (@RealJamesWoods) April 29, 2022“Information laundering is really quite ferocious,” Jankovic begins, channeling Eliza Doolittle. She sings in rapid-fire show-tune style about Rudy Giuliani spreading “bad information” about Ukraine, “TikTok influencers” denying the perils of COVID-19 and urges all to “not support their lies with our wallet, voice or vo …
