Infowars Anchor David Knight Has Suffered A Serious Heart Attack, Will Undergo Surgery Monday #AlexJones
TiLTNews Network: Earth Watch - Freedom is defined by the ability of citizens to live without government interference, not by safety. It is easy to clamor for government security when terrible things happen; but liberty is given true meaning when we support it without exception, and we will be safer for it ~ Dr. Ron Paul

Matt Bracken explains how a symbol once used in Spain can be relevant in the culture war of today.
Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) released 522 migrants in New Mexico and Texas on Wednesday evening – bringing the total number of asylum seekers dropped off by the agency this week to more than 1,000.
ICE dropped off 186 people on Christmas Day and 400 in the two days preceding the holiday, according to CBS News.
The Sentinel posted several videos of the people streaming into the El Paso Greyhound station under catch and release [search ‘Greyhound’ on this site]. Every single person who comes here illegally with a child, including drug dealers who grab onto the kids traveling alone, will get into the country. They don’t even need a child and most illegals are in fact men who are getting in since we don’t have the ability to stop them.
Once they are in, no one will deport them. Eventually, they will get amnesty.
The aliens were dropped off without notice because ICE had to release them and are inundated with thousands of illegals pouring in each week. That is what Democrats want.
ICE in a statement blamed “decades of inaction by Congress” for limiting its ability to remove families who are in the U.S. illegally.
“To mitigate the risk of holding family units past the timeframe allotted to the government, ICE has curtailed reviews of post-release plans from families apprehended along the southwest border,” the statement read. “ICE continues to work with local and state officials and NGO partners in the area so they are prepared to provide assistance with transportation or other services.”
Congress is worthless. The Senate needs 60 votes to get anything done and Schumer won’t let one Democrat vote for a thing to stop this. It will be worse now with the open borders House.
This past year, CBP experienced a 121% increase in the number of asylum seekers processed at US ports of entry, and overall CBP processed almost 93,000 claims of fear in FY18. CBP processes undocumented persons as expeditiously as possible. https://t.co/iu8PZ9dFyi

With the influx of Central American family units arriving at US ports of entry without proper documentation and crossing US borders illegally, the processing system at CBP and our partner agencies has hit capacity. https://t.co/iu8PZ9dFyi

How is this keeping the country safe? Why are illegals being released into the united states to never be seen again? Where is the assimilation, love for the country they illegally breaking into. You are over DHS, you have final say— Glenn C (@youlostliberals) December 27, 2018
ICE releases more migrants. More than one thousand in a matter of days. https://t.co/1OJM0fahfp

CELEBRATING 20 YEARS OF EXCELLENCE: Countdown: Top stories of 2018
by WorldTribune Staff, December 26, 2018
The Pentagon’s doors may soon swing open to a number of supporters of President Donald Trump who felt they were locked out by departing Defense Secretary Jim Mattis, D.C. insiders say.
“Mattis mostly hired Democrats, so this is an opportunity for a Trump do-over of political appointees at the Pentagon,” tweeted Christian Whiton, a former senior adviser at the State Department. “Would be nice if it happens.”

In a Dec. 25 report, Washington Times security correspondent Rowan Scarborough quoted a former Trump campaign adviser as saying Mattis “was briefing Hillary during the 2016 campaign and only became a Trump supporter after the election. He then worked hard to keep Trump campaign advisers and surrogates out of the Pentagon while undermining Trump policies all along. I hope he doesn’t let the door hit him on the way out.”
The ex-adviser also said: “General Mattis is a cautionary tale for conservatives thinking about getting involved in 2020 re-election campaign. Numerous advisers who took significant risks in supporting Trump during the 2016 campaign had their lives destroyed by a cast of thousands. Meanwhile, Mattis fought hard to keep them out of the Pentagon, adding insult to injury.”
Scarborough noted that “Insiders say Mattis’s chief of staff, retired Navy Rear Adm. Kevin M. Sweeney, preached a ‘non-political’ Defense Department.”
Mattis reportedly gave Sweeney wide authority over personnel matters. Sweeney’s official Pentagon biography states: “He is responsible for providing counsel and advice to the Secretary on all matters concerning the Department.”
Insiders translated Sweeney’s “non-political” edict “as meaning that Trump campaign people and Republicans on Capitol Hill would have limited access to 160 plum, high-paying appointments,” Scarborough wrote.
Scarborough noted that sources pointed to Michele Flournoy, who was his first choice to be deputy defense secretary, as proof of Mattis’s leanings. Flournoy served as President Barack Obama’s undersecretary of defense for policy and is a Hillary Clinton supporter.
“Yet she was Mattis‘s first choice for the ultra-plum job of deputy defense secretary, to the exclusion of rank-and-file Republicans who had been outside looking in for eight years,” Scarborough wrote.
The job ultimately went to Patrick M. Shanahan, a longtime Boeing executive outside the Republican foreign policy sphere.
Scarborough noted that the Flournoy near-hiring may have contributed to Trump calling Mattis “some sort of a Democrat” on CBS’s “60 Minutes.”
A second source, Scarborough said, defended Sweeney. While he stresses a non-political Pentagon, Sweeney has asked for Republican referrals, only to run up against a tide of “Never Trumpers” who would be dead-on-arrival with White House gatekeepers, this source said.

Trump’s visit comes on the tail of his announcement that Defense Secretary Jim Mattis will leave his post about two months earlier than expected, as well as Trump’s seemingly abrupt announcement that the U.S. is withdrawing all troops from Syria.
Trump on Dec. 19 had tweeted that the U.S. has “defeated ISIS in Syria.”
“We have defeated ISIS in Syria, my only reason for being there during the Trump Presidency,” he wrote.
The Pentagon confirmed reports that the U.S. was withdrawing troops but pointed out that the campaign against ISIS is not over.
“The #Coalition has liberated ISIS-held territory, but the campaign against #ISIS is not over,” Pentagon spokesperson Dana White tweeted.
There are approximately 2,000 U.S. service members in Syria who mainly help train local soldiers, including the Syrian Democratic Forces (SDF), to fight against ISIS. It has been reported that there are actually more than 4,000 troops in Syria, although military officials have never confirmed the exact number of troops
U.S. troops have been in Syria fighting ISIS for more than four years.
While Trump has said in the past that he would like to withdraw all troops from Syria, Defense Secretary Jim Mattis said this fall that troops would remain in Syria to complete their mission of defeating ISIS so the terrorist group cannot mount a comeback.
There are more than 5,000 U.S. troops stationed in Iraq, which neighbors Syria to the east.
Mattis resigned earlier this month after Trump announced that the U.S. will withdraw all troops from Syria.
In his resignation letter, Mattis cited differences of opinion with Trump, saying, “Because you have the right to have a Secretary of Defense whose views are better aligned with yours on these and other subjects, I believe it is right for me to step down from my position. The end date for my tenure is February 28, 2019, a date that should allow sufficient time for a successor to be nominated and confirmed […].”
Trump tweeted Sunday that Mattis will leave his post effective Jan. 1, 2019 – two months earlier than expected.
Mattis, 68, is a retired four-star Marine Corps general with a career spanning 44 years. He previously headed the U.S. Central Command overseeing military operations in Iraq and Afghanistan.
He was the most approved member of the Trump Administration and hailed as one of the greatest military minds of our time.
