🛑 ICE Arrests 4,170 Illegal Aliens in 10 Days Across Texas 🛑
ICE's Lone Star Mission ran Oct 19 to Oct 29 through all five Texas ERO field offices: Dallas, Houston, San Antonio, El Paso and Harlingen. DHS says it ended with 4,170 illegal aliens arrested statewide, including murderers, sexual assailants, drunk drivers and alien smugglers.
DHS Secretary Markwayne Mullin announced the results today in Dallas. "We don't pick and choose which laws we enforce, we simply enforce our nation's laws," he said. He told reporters over 60% of those arrested had a criminal background.
He still is WAY BEHIND Kristi's Noem's total number of 2.2 million illegal aliens self-deported and forced deportations.
Arrests DHS named:
Javier Hernandez Alcon, Mexico, deported twice before. Arrested Oct 20 in Liberty. Convictions for burglary of a residence and illegal reentry, plus an arrest for capital murder.
Orlando Aguilar, Mexico. Arrested Oct 24 in Dallas. Convicted of felony intoxication assault causing serious bodily injury and DWI.
Ramon Antonio Martinez, Honduras. Arrested Oct 23 in Houston. Wanted back home in connection with the alleged killing of a Honduran man.
Gerardo Daniel Rivera-Rivera, Mexico. Arrested Oct 24 in Zapata County. Convicted of felony sexual assault and illegal reentry.
Victor Manuel Macias-Castro, Mexico, La Linea Cartel member. Arrested Oct 22 in El Paso. Convicted of conspiracy to smuggle aliens, illegal entry and illegal reentry.
Texas worked with ICE and got thousands of illegal aliens off its streets in ten days. California went the other way. A congressional report says its sanctuary cities ignored 9,000 ICE detainers.

Every candidate has a plan for your money. I’m interested in the ones who trust you to have a plan of your own.
Ronald Reagan, in his second inaugural address on January 21, 1985:
“Freedom and incentives unleash the drive and entrepreneurial genius that are the core of human progress.”
Starting a business is an expensive way to find out whether you’re right.
You commit your savings, sign the lease, hire someone, and hope enough customers agree with you before the money runs out.
The possibility of success makes that gamble worth taking. Keeping a meaningful share of what you earn gives you a reason to take it again.
I want elected officials who understand those incentives before they start rewriting them.
When a candidate promises more jobs, ask what happens to the person expected to create one.

What @AbdulElSayed doesn’t understand is that governments have no money! Every dollar comes from the private sector. So it just comes out of a different pocket to fund excessive federal, state, and local government spending.
.@AbdulElSayed thinks property tax for seniors should be frozen
I think its generational warfare and that they should sell their houses if they can't afford them. He concedes I'm 'theoretically correct' but practically wrong

Another *huge* immigration win for President Trump and Secretary Rubio. Must they, now, open the diversity visa lottery program? The program gives visas to people for being from countries without many people that qualify for merit based visas. No, per the Ninth Circuit. Stayed!

Patrick Stewart was once filmed dancing and singing on the bridge of the USS Enterprise-D in 1991 as a birthday surprise for Star Trek creator Gene Roddenberry. Though never intended for public release, a copy of the clip eventually surfaced as a bonus feature on a DVD.
Rest in peace 🙏

BREAKING: Legendary "Star Trek" and "X-Men" actor Sir Patrick Stewart has died at 86 following a brief battle with Alzheimer's disease and Lewy body dementia.
Stewart died Wednesday at his Los Angeles home, where he was being cared for by his wife, Sunny Ozell, according to his representative.
The beloved British actor became a household name as Captain Jean-Luc Picard in "Star Trek" and Professor Charles Xavier in the "X-Men" franchise, building a career that spanned more than six decades.

Patrick Stewart, who died today at 86, became Professor X and Captain Picard. As a boy, he watched his father beat his mother, and heard the doctors who came to help tell her it was her own fault.
In the video below, a woman thanks him for helping her survive her own abuse, and his answer brings the whole room to its feet.
He grew up in a poor mill town in England. His father came home from World War II a different man and turned his violence on Patrick's mother.
Every time the doctors and ambulance men came, they told her she must have provoked him, that it takes two to make an argument.
Decades later, Stewart learned from his father's war records that he had been suffering from severe shell shock that was never treated.
So he spent the rest of his life working for two charities: one for abused women, in his mother's name, and one for traumatized soldiers, in his father's.
He could have spent his life hating his father. Instead, he spent it helping others. Is that the kind of legacy that matters more than fame?

Under Operation Economic Outcast, Iran’s regime is running out of lifelines, and its proxies are feeling the pressure. Tehran is struggling to move money, while the IRGC is reportedly failing to pay its own troops. We are cutting the regime’s ability to fund the Houthis, Hamas, and Hizballah. We will not allow Tehran to continue financing their campaign of terror.

You want to bring down prices, you need to reinforce the value of our dollars by balancing budgets. I don't have the idea all these politicians saying they'll bring prices down understand that.

A Red Wave does not happen by accident.
It happens because YOU show up. We can never let the Democrats have power over us again. A Republican that does not vote is actually voting Democrat.

It’s real simple now: appointed Senator Alan Armstrong must accept the law and immediately step aside once Kevin Hern is elected and certified. No drawn out legal battles, and no DC swamp games to cling to power for a few more weeks. It’s time to put the people of Oklahoma above your own personal interests and make sure there is a quick and smooth transition.
