Hold them accountable! No one is above the law, our good friends on the left said. That should include those who break our immigration laws, and those who enable them.

We reported on Tuesday how many law enforcement agencies in Kentucky were cooperating with Immigration and Customs Enforcement, and now we’re seeing some of the same in the Keystone State. The activists are, of course, thoroughly incensed:

“We don’t need our local police enforcing federal law. It is not their job and has proven time and again to harm public safety,” said Jasmine Rivera, executive director of the Pennsylvania Immigration Coalition. “ICE and billionaires profiting off federal contracts are making billions of dollars from kidnapping our people. They are terrorizing families and attacking our neighbors who are literally building our communities. We don’t need $240 billion of our tax dollars to go to ICE and [U.S. Customs and Border Protection]; we need that money to make education, healthcare, and housing affordable.”

It wasn’t that long ago that our good friends on the left were telling us that “no one is above the law,” during their efforts to put then-former President Donald Trump in jail. Now, returned to office, Mr Trump agrees with that statement, and is enforcing our immigration laws, and shazamm! the left are trying to say that illegal immigrants should be above the law!

Kentucky is not a sanctuary state! But if candy Andy Beshear had his way, we probably would be.

While we continually see the so-called “sanctuary” cities and counties trying to frustrate federal enforcement of our immigration laws, at least parts of Kentucky are doing their jobs! And while the Lexington Herald-Leader’s editorial orientation is toward the left of the political spectrum, reporter Beth Musgrave’s article is politically neutral.

Report: Kentucky immigration arrests soar as more police ink agreements with ICE

Sometimes you just have to be an [insert slang term for the anus here] to do things right

My good friend and sometime blog pinch hitter William Teach noted the Associated Press story, “ICE arrests jumped to nearly 50,000 in July, the highest monthly total of Trump’s second term.” That’s great, but let’s do the math. 50,000 arrests, and hopefully deportations, times 12 equals just 600,000 per year. In the 30 months remaining in President Trump’s term, that works out to 1,500,000, which would make a small dent in the population of illegal immigrants in our country. If we assume that J D Vance becomes the next President, and he continues President Trump’s immigration enforcement policies for two full terms, 96 months, that has an additional 4,800,000 illegals arrested and hopefully deported, a nice number, but still just a fraction of the number of illegals already here.

The real solution is for real Americans to shun companies that employ illegal immigrants: cost them profits, at which point they’ll get rid of the illegals or go out of business, and the illegals will self deport. Yes, we need actual enforcement of our laws against hiring illegals, enforcement which sends the violators to prison. A few employers spending quality time Leavenworth will get the others to comply quickly. Continue reading

Yet another immigration sob story If they're here illegally, if their asylum claims ar not approved, they've got to go

Once again, The Philadelphia Inquirer, our nation’s third oldest continuously published daily newspaper, and the past winner of twenty Pulitzer Prizes, uses their brand of journolism[1]The spelling ‘journolist’ or ‘journolism’ comes from JournoList, an email list of 400 influential and politically liberal journalists, the exposure of which called into question their … Continue reading to try to create sympathy for an illegal immigrant, sympathy for people who have broken the law.

1 The spelling ‘journolist’ or ‘journolism’ comes from JournoList, an email list of 400 influential and politically liberal journalists, the exposure of which called into question their objectivity. I use the term ‘journolism’ frequently when writing about media bias.

I check Bluesky so you don’t have to! For our good friends on the left, "No one is above the law" apparently doesn't apply to illegal immigrants. Fortunately, President Trump is seeing to it that it does apply.

This site’s favorite whipping boy, The Philadelphia Inquirer’s far, far, far left columnist Will Bunch, who’s even crazier than Amanda Marcotte if such a thing is possible, has told us how important it is to enforce the law. We have previously noted how The Philadelphia Inquirer’s radical left columnist Will Bunch was adamant in his support for legality, railing against President Trump’s pardon of the January 6th Capitol kerfufflers, even though the vast majority of them had already been punished, already served their sentences, his indignation over the United States sinking drug trafficking boats rather than arresting the drug traffickers, and, as we reported in June of last year, his support for illegal immigrant and accused wife beater Kilmar Abrego Garcia, insisting that this illegal immigrant be given the full protection of the laws. He was all about the law when President Trump was eliminating drug trafficking boats coming from Venezuela, an action that Philadelphians should at least somewhat understand given the Hellhole that the Kensington neighborhood has become with strung out junkies sleeping on the sidewalks, in alleys and the Allegheny Avenue SEPTA station.

But, once again, Mr Bunch is complaining that we should not enforce the laws, not say that no one is above the law, when it comes to illegal immigration:

This quaint Pa. borough is a ‘speed trap’ nabbing immigrants for ICE

Yes, we disagree with Democrats, but I never thought that they could be this stupid

It has been said that presidential candidates like to pick vice presidential running mates who will not overshadow them, and such is frequently done by picking running mates who are dumber than them. Yes, I know: I have used that opening line before, and yes, I used it in reference to Governor Tim Walz of Minnesota, and his pardon of Tou Lue Vang, a previously convicted child rapist, to try to save him from being deported to Laos. Mr Vang had serially raped a Hmong girl between her ages of ten and twelve years, something he admitted to detectives:

When a detective interviewed Mr. Vang, he acknowledged having had sexual contact with the girl and called it a “minor thing,” according to a criminal complaint. Mr. Vang blamed cultural norms in Thailand, according to the complaint.

Secretary of State Marco Rubio wasn’t going to put up with that s(tuff), revoked Mr Vang’s legal status, and he was quickly shipped back to Laos.

You would think that even a vice presidential candidate selected because he was dumber than Kamala Harris Emhoff would figure, at that point, OK, he’s gone, there’s nothing more we can do about it. Remember: Mr Vang was a convicted child rapist! Continue reading

Canucks can get Trump Derangement Syndrome, too!

Someone get these clowns a MAGA hat!

Our great neighbor to the north is a virtual paradise, or so they would have us believe. Free health care, though you have to wait in months-long lines, strict gun control, way better airports than some of the ones Americans have, Air Canada rather than Delta or United, beautiful, wide-open vistas, across their frozen fruited plains. You’d think that they’d have little reason to care about the politics of we unworthy Americans, everything is just so groovy-cool up there. But, if you thought that, you’d be wrong!

Ironic twist for Canadian woman accused of slapping Jersey Shore teen for wearing MAGA attire

By Chris Nesi | Wednesday, July 15, 2026 | 12:51 PM EDT

The Canadian woman who slapped a teenager at the Jersey Shore because she didn’t like the girl’s MAGA clothing was arrested by ICE and brought to Delaney Hall in Newark — the very immigration detention center her lefty husband has railed about on social media.Kaitlyn E. Tracey, 33, was taken into custody after she filmed herself confronting two girls wearing “patriotic colored” sweatpants over Fourth of July weekend at Point Pleasant, one of whom she struck across the face and body, cops said.

Lorenzo Salgado Araujo wasn’t really concerned about legality until it seemed like he would get caught! He wasn't concerned with the law until it seemed he might get to Make Mexico Great Again!

The credentialed media rarely tell us outright lies, but sometimes you have to look pretty closely to find the parts they don’t want for you to know. From this morning’s Philadelphia Inquirer:

Getting ‘legal status’ in America is harder than most people think. Lorenzo Salgado Araujo was killed by ICE before he could.

A resident of the U.S. for 35 years, the construction worker was fatally shot by ICE agents while still trying to navigate the nation’s arcane immigration system.

Lorenzo Salgado Araujo was killed by U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement agents Tuesday in Houston. He arrived in the U.S. from Mexico 35 years ago, built a construction business, and became one of five people killed by federal agents carrying out President Donald Trump’s plan of mass deportation.

Why do I pay $6.99 a week for a newspaper that hates our country? They hate Western civilization and, of course, Donald Trump!

My digital subscription to The Philadelphia Inquirer hits my bank account for $27.96 every four weeks, or $363.48 every year. The City of Brotherly Love is where the members of the Continental Congress met and finally declared our independence from King George and Great Britain 250 years and one day ago. Yet our nation’s third oldest continuously published daily newspaper used the Semiquincentennial primarily to trash the United States of America. Continue reading
