Colorado’s illegal immigrant crisis hits the suburbs

By William Perry Pendley Americans are horrified by the nation’s illegal immigration crisis; it is their No. 1 issue, reports a new public opinion poll, edging out inflation. Once a concern for Arizona, California, Texas and New Mexico residents, it is now a national problem. After all, the sight at the border of multitudes of single, military-aged men from scores of countries with potentially incompatible civilizations, cultures or causes is at once stupefying and instructive. Because most are headed our way, we all live in border states. Unvetted, unvaccinated and uneducated, they are unprepared for life in America, even those Biden’s Border Patrol ushers in and to whom it provides monies, cell phones, and transport deep in country with court dates years in the future. One can only...

Businesses Flee Denver in Mass Due to Safety Concerns and Remote Work Opportunities

By the Lobby The mass exodus of businesses from Denver has reached a critical point, with CEOs citing financial viability, safety concerns, and cleanliness as the driving factors behind their decision to pack up and leave. The city's policies and the influx of indigent migrants and homeless individuals have created an environment that is increasingly challenging for businesses and their employees. Denver's once highly coveted Mile High City office real estate market has lost its luster, and the consequences are evident. According to Moody's Analytics data, a staggering 21.7% of office space across the Denver metro area was vacant at the end of last year, surpassing the national average of 19.6%. The commercial real estate firm CBRE reported even more severe vacancy rates at 31.5%,...

Migrants cost Sanctuary City schools $17.5 million, Colo taxpayers stuck with bill

SOURCE: COLORADO PEAK POLITICS Sanctuary City has thousands of new students this school year who are projected to cost Denver Public Schools an additional $17.5 million. Hang onto your wallets PeakNation™  because state taxpayers are being asked to foot the bill for the additional costs above Denver school’s $1.3 billion annual budget this year. Thanks to President Biden’s open asylum policy, the influx of migrant students in Denver has risen to almost 3,000 and continues to grow weekly. Denver Public Schools is asking the state for a one-time adjustment in increased funding, which must be approved and funded by the state legislature, reports the Denver Post. Denver schools are currently juggling some money already in the coffers, and the dip in enrollment from past yea...

Voters back Texas border wall, feel Biden starting ‘civil war’

By Paul Bedard, Washington Examiner | SOURCE: THE GAZETTE A sizable majority of the public supports Texas’s construction of a wall along its border with Mexico and feels that President Joe Biden’s efforts to stop it are the first step toward civil war. In a sobering analysis of the escalating topic, 69% of likely 2024 voters said that they support the border wall and razor-wire fence that Gov. Greg Abbott (R-TX) has ordered. Among those, a majority, 51%, said they “strongly” back Texas in its fight to stop illegal immigration and the surge of "gotaways" getting past federal border agents. The White House won the Supreme Court's support for stopping Texas, but not voters. Besides fighting voters, Biden has clashed with members of his own party over ...

Denver’s Failed Universal Income Program Opens the Floodgates to Non-Citizen Migrants

SOURCE: THELOBBY-CO.COM In a controversial move that has sparked outrage among many citizens, the city of Denver's bankrupting sanctuary city policies have extended the eligibility of their failed universal income program to non-citizen migrants. The Denver Basic Income Program, which was initially introduced in 2021 with $2 million in funding from the city, has now announced its extension for another six months starting in February 2024. The program, which pays homeless individuals a regular stipend, was intended to assist citizens in need. However, the recent decision to include non-citizen migrants raises serious concerns about the city's financial stability and its commitment to prioritizing its own residents. According to the city's statement, the $2 million allocated ...

Truck Convoy Heading to Southern Border Calling Itself An ‘Army of God.’

By the Lobby A convoy of self-proclaimed ‘patriotic Americans’ is gearing up to head to the U.S.-Mexico border next week, as tensions between Texas and the federal government continue to escalate. Dubbed the "Take Our Border Back" convoy, the organizers have named themselves as "God's army" on a mission to combat the so-called globalists who they believe are conspiring to keep the U.S. borders open and undermine the nation. During a recent planning call, one of the convoy organizers described the event as a monumental moment orchestrated by God. Another participant emphasized the need for the faithful remnant, referring to the Book of Revelation, to rise against the dark forces of evil. While these statements may resonate with some, experts warn that the Christian nationalist over...

The Border Patrol Union Denounces Supreme Court Ruling Allowing Removal of Razor Wire on Texas-Mexico Border

By the Lobby The recent Supreme Court ruling allowing the removal of razor wire along the southern border between Texas and Mexico has ignited a fierce debate between the Texas authorities and the US federal government. This weekend, Border Patrol Council President Brandon Judd strongly condemned the recent decision, stating that agents are against cutting down the barbed-wire fences. In a recent appearance on Newsmax's Saturday Report, Judd expressed his disapproval of the Supreme Court ruling, which grants the federal government the constitutional authority to remove the barbed wire on the Texas-Mexico border. While the Border Patrol has been directed to dismantle the razor wire, the Texas National Guard has been actively installing more wire, which Judd clarified does not viola...

Failed Liberalism: A city of 710,000 struggles to cope with 40,000 indigent migrants

By the Lobby Denver, a city with a population of just over 710,000, has found itself at the forefront of the migrant crisis, with nearly 40,000 indigent migrants arriving in the past year. This makes Denver the top destination per capita for newly arrived migrants crossing the U.S. southern border and traveling north in buses from Texas. It is all too apparent that Denver’s "sanctuary city" policies have failed its taxpayers, leaving them to bear the burden. The influx of migrants is taking a toll and has stretched city services to the breaking point. Starting February 5th, the city will be implementing measures to limit the number of days migrants can stay in shelters. Those who exceed their stay will be forced out onto the streets, further exacerbating the already dire situation...

House Republicans to impeach Homeland Security Secretary Mayorkas on two articles

By Anna Giaritelli, Washington Examiner House Republicans plan to impeach President Joe Biden's Department of Homeland Security Secretary Alejandro Mayorkas on two articles in a historic committee meeting scheduled for Tuesday, the Washington Examiner has learned. The House Homeland Security Committee will take up articles of impeachment for Willful and Systemic Refusal to Comply with the Law and Breach of the Public Trust against Mayorkas, according to the committee. "These articles lay out a clear, compelling, and irrefutable case for Secretary Alejandro Mayorkas’ impeachment," said House Homeland Security Chairman Mark Green (R-TN) in a statement. "He has willfully and systemically refused to comply with immigration laws enacted by Congress. He has...

Retired FBI execs to Congress: Invasion at border ‘perilous’ for America

By Bethany Blankley | The Center Square contributor, Washington Examiner Ten retired FBI directors and experts in counter intelligence sent a letter to congressional leaders warning that President Joe Biden’s border policies have facilitated a “soft invasion” into the U.S. of military-age men coming from terror-linked regions, China and Russia. They argue a terrorist attack is likely imminent but preventable. “The threat we call out today is new and unfamiliar. In its modern history the U.S. has never suffered an invasion of the homeland, and, yet, one is unfolding now. Military age men from across the globe, many from countries or regions not friendly to the United States, are landing in waves on our soil by the thousands – not by splashing ashore from a ship or parachuting from ...
