Its already started here, we have subsidized housing units going up in the area (suburbs) we've seen an uptick in crime, because it's area where it was close to zero crime.

Federal funds to builders who use this to build subsidized housing, they don't give two shits about what it does to the area as long as they get paid by the gov.

President Joe Biden is attempting to “destroy” American suburbs with the reconciliation infrastructure package, proving former President Donald Trump’s prediction correct.

Federalism has been on life support for years, and this is how you kill it for good. If 'any' Repub signs onto this deal, or supports it in any way, they need to be burnt at the stake (figuratively of course), and replaced at the first opportunity.

Thank you! And bookmarked. BTW you spelled embed wrong.

Interesting move on the HOMES thing. O tried something similar, but this is a little more focused and perhaps a little more obvious.

More high rises in high density areas? More (expected) urban votes. Low cost housing federally mandated in suburbs that - presumably - the feds will more or less select? Diluted conservative votes in conservative suburbs all the way from school board elections to presidential elections.

The thing is we've been going hog wild with putting more high rises and greater density in high-density areas here. The people moving in there are still Dems, but they're anything from bar managers to silicon industry gerbils. The working poor still live in neighboring towns. The poor still live in the same old bad areas, except where the bad area has been redeveloped as a restaurant and entertainment area for the people moving into town and moving into the high rises. The poor people that lived there before have been shoved off to who knows where. Call it...progressive gentrification.

Public support for Biden-Harris border policies collapses

https://justthenews.com/nation...immigration-policies

The Biden administration has struggled to find a solution to the growing immigration crisis at the southern border, and public perception reflects that, according to new polling data.

A new Harvard/Harris poll found the overwhelming majority of voters say immigration is a serious issue that has gotten worse under the Biden administration and that more should be done to address it.

According to the survey, 80% of voters see immigration as a "very serious" or "somewhat serious" issue, and 64% said the Biden administration should "issue new, stricter policies to reduce the flow of people across the border." Only 36% said Biden should continue his current policies.

In the poll, 68% of voters said the Biden administration's executive actions are increasing the amount of illegal immigration, and 55% said he should have left in place former President Donald Trump's immigration policies.

"The president's border policies are plainly unpopular with a large swath of the electorate, but the administration just seems to be doubling down on them," Andrew Arthur, a legal expert at the Center for Immigration Studies, wrote. "If people knew how bad Biden's immigration policies really were — both at the border and in dealing with criminals in the interior — they likely would have been a whole lot worse."

The polling comes as Biden struggles to get his infrastructure deal through Congress and takes increasing heat about his administration's handling of the southern border.

Federal data show a spike in illegal immigration this year. U.S. Customs and Border Patrol encountered 101,000 illegal immigrants attempting to enter the country in the month of February. That number jumped to 172,000 in March. Those figures have continued to climb since and remain well above the numbers from the same time last year.

Those stats have fueled Republican efforts to turn voters against Biden and other Democrats.

Democrats have worked for years to turn Texas into a purple, or even a blue state, to nab its electoral votes, but Biden's handling of the border hasn't helped the cause in the Lone Star State. A University of Texas/Texas Tribune poll released this week showed that 57% of Texas voters disapprove of Biden's handling of immigration and border security.

Vice President Kamala Harris, who Biden tapped earlier this year to head up the immigration issue, for the first time visited a border facility in El Paso, Texas, last week after increasing pressure.

Harris has taken heat for months for her handling of the border crisis. A group of House Republicans called on Biden to replace Harris as head of the immigration issue before she announced her visit to the border earlier this month.

"This has been a trip that also is connected with the very obvious point: If you want to deal with a problem, you can't just deal with the symptom of the problem," Harris said of her trip. "You gotta figure out what caused it to happen."

Harris has consistently tried to broaden the immigration issue to include reasons why people are fleeing nations like Guatemala and Mexico, beyond the traditional border security conversation.

Republicans were quick to jump on the latest polling as evidence that they have the support of voters on immigration.

"According to a new Harvard/Harris poll, 80% view illegal immigration as a serious issue right now," said Ronna McDaniel, chairwoman of the Republican party. "Americans see through Biden and Harris' gaslighting on the border crisis."

quote:

"This has been a trip that also is connected with the very obvious point: If you want to deal with a problem, you can't just deal with the symptom of the problem," Harris said of her trip. "You gotta figure out what caused it to happen."

IOW, "I flew all the way to El Paso on my way to LA only to learn that I couldn't keep up with conversations on the issue because I never bothered to do my homework on it."

Or "Who do I have to blow to get out of here?"

it is a problem for which they are entirely responsible

if they didn't want a problem at the border, then that senile old bastard and the blow job queen should have kept his mouth shut and not done a damned thing

it wasn't broke

Joe and that whore broke it

Not A Healthy Environment: Kamala Harris' Office Rife With Dissent
http://www.politico.com/news/2...ffice-dissent-497290

The short version?

- Kamala Harris' office is in utter chaos. People are being blindsided by decisions like the one to go to El Paso, which (as in that case) leads to bad decisions and ineffective, if not downright embarassing, efforts.

- Tina Flournoy, her chief of staff, seems to be the focus of the trouble, but in DC that could just be something a couple of staffers cooked up before looking for new jobs or bucking for promotions. Those who try to defend her (and Harris isn't named as one) are only coming up with generalized criticisms of the critics as a response.

- Flournoy, and apparently Harris above her, seem to be in the habit of making major demands without providing much, if any, guidance or taking any responsibility for the outcome. On the other hand, staff initiative is either blunted or ignored. [In many ways Flournoy could be seen as both the harbinger (in Bill Clinton's office) and the second coming (in Kamala Harris' office) of Valerie Jarrett.]

- Staff has had high turnover (apparently three or four major transitions or wholesale replacements of the staff), and is suffering from "low morale, porous lines of communication and diminished trust among aides and senior officials". The office is described as having "a tense and at times dour" atmosphere. Many staffers apparently start looking for new jobs within six months of beginning to work in Harris' office.

- It's not only having a negative effect on Harris' personal performance, it's attracting a lot of negative attention from Biden's crew.

- [There's a consistent undercurrent here. Harris apparently doesn't have a clue as to how to run an office or a staff.]

Now, Politico is something of a Dem party organ, so it's tempting to read this like one of the famous posters in Tieninmin Square from Mao's day. But with a potato pretending to occupy the White House these days, who's to say that it isn't just another donkey-on-donkey knife fight over whose turn it is to use the potato? This is, after all, precisely what one would expect government by high school clique to look like.

His “Crack head, parmesan smoking, gun criminal son”. Damn! Which male Repub on the hill would make that speech? Yeah right. I wants lots more Lauren Bobert's in Congress, and I want them there now. Bravo young lady. Bravo.

No they haven't. They actually created and promoted the situation which I assure you, they do not view as a problem (beyond the political optics that is).

Harris' org is rotting from the top down....

I know people in the US who are from Taiwan, still have family in Taiwan, and nevertheless supported Biden. When the CCP moves to take Taiwan, they will have the blood of their own family on their hands. A vote for Biden was a vote for the destruction of Taiwan.

China's Xi pledges 'reunification' with Taiwan

BEIJING/TAIPEI (Reuters) -Chinese President Xi Jinping pledged on Thursday to complete "reunification" with self-ruled Taiwan and vowed to "smash" any attempts at formal independence, drawing a stern rebuke from Taipei, which lambasted the Communist Party as a dictatorship.

China, which considers democratically-ruled Taiwan its own territory, has stepped up efforts under Xi to assert its sovereignty claims, including regular flights by fighter jets and bombers close to the island.

"Solving the Taiwan question and realising the complete reunification of the motherland are the unswerving historical tasks of the Chinese Communist Party and the common aspiration of all Chinese people," Xi said in a speech on the 100th birthday of the ruling Communist Party.

"All sons and daughters of China, including compatriots on both sides of the Taiwan Strait, must work together and move forward in solidarity, resolutely smashing any 'Taiwan independence' plots."

The defeated Republic of China government fled to Taiwan in 1949 after losing a civil war to Mao Zedong's Communist Party.

Done with the full support of the Biden administration I’m sure.

So the U.S. Taiwanese have developed the same voting trends and habits as the U.S. Jews. Interesting... [rubs chin stubble]

Looks like there’s trouble in Vice President Mattress-back’s house….

So the candidate that was one of the first to drop out, couldn’t get any support FROM HER OWN DAMN PARTY and was selected as VP simply because of her skin color and sex rather than the content of her character (or complete and total lack there of) is in fact a scumbag and dealing with internal strife.
