Report: Feds Release Far More Illegal Aliens in Texas Than Any Other US State

 

HOUSTON, Texas--Amid the border crisis, President Obama's Health and Human Services (HHS) has been quietly releasing illegal immigrant minors onto U.S. soil. According to HHS' Office of Refugee and Resettlement, a total of 30,340 unaccompanied minors have already been released from federal custody after being placed in a foster home. Although foreign minors have been set free in all 50 states, Texas has received far more than any other U.S. state. 

As of July 7, 4,280 illegal immigrant minors were released in Texas.

Officials scout San Antonio as possible home for Raiders

SAN ANTONIO -- The city of San Antonio is taking another chance at landing a professional football team in the 21-year-old Alamodome.

Multiple city leaders told KENS 5 that executives from the Oakland Raiders have been in San Antonio to discuss moving the team to South Texas.

In a statement released to KENS 5 Tuesday, City Manager Sheryl Sculley said:

"Oakland Raiders officials were in San Antonio in July to attend the Prairie View Interscholastic League Hall of Fame induction of Cliff Branch and met with community representatives regarding the possible use of the Alamodome for future NFL games and potential relocation of the Oakland Raiders from Oakland, California to San Antonio. These discussions are in a very preliminary stage."

Iraq: ISIS Making Millions Off Seized Oil Fields

ISIS, the terrorist group that has taken over a large swath of eastern Syria and northern Iraq, is making millions of dollars selling black-market crude from seized oil wells, Iraqi officials say.

Though the black-market price is far below the going rate of just over $100 a barrel, ISIS could be raking in up to $3 million a day, Foreign Policy reports. Some reports says ISIS is getting only $25 a barrel from Turkish traders..

Still, that is enough to boost ISIS in the short term. It also has raided banks and seized U.S.-supplied weapons when Iraqi soldiers laid down their arms and fled during the ISIS invasion.

Wanted Man Taunts Police On Facebook, Arrested 24-Hours Later

ANNE ARUNDEL COUNTY, MD- A man trying to outsmart the cops in Maryland, actually helped lead law-enforcement right to him.

And it all started on a police department Facebook page.

"We figured we'd profile a couple of our wanted people that we haven't been able to track down," said TJ Smith of Anne Arundel County Police.

It's called ‘Wanted Wednesday.’

A new online initiative by Anne Arundel County Police.

"We figured we'd use our social media community to help us identify them and then some people might see themselves and turn themselves in," said Smith.

What the department didn't expect was what happened this past Wednesday, when Roger Ireland saw his face pop up on the screen.

Instead of keeping silent, he commented on his own picture.

Respect the knife

Do you like your pistol in a hip or leg rig that you'd bet your life on? I'm a pistol fan for sure, but if you can't clear leather and go to work when you need to against a trained man with a knife, you're going to have a rough day if you survive. It doesn't matter that the video below is old because the knife attack never ages. It's the same now as it was back then. A knife will kill you before you even realize you've been hit. Engage the line of attack or get off of it. You always want to be where the blade is not. The first line of defense against an opponent armed with a knife is to avoid close contact, PERIOD. Run if you can, and live to fight another day.

Having been on the business end of a broken beer bottle once before, I'll add that being cut majorly fucking sucks.

That was one swipe! It took only one swipe before I was able to realize what happened and defend myself accordingly. I got lucky. After a few butterfly bandages, Iodine and some super glue, I was back rocking and rolling.You know, young drunk Marines not wanting to get in trouble by command have incredible medic skills when needed.


The fastest way to see how well you handle a knife against a knife is to grab a buddy, don a couple of white shirts, and bust out the red sharpie markers on each other for a few short bursts. You'll learn real quick where your technique is via the red ink left all over your body. Your forearms will have little tick marks all over them. In a real life situation, those small tick marks can slice important tendons and critically functioning muscles in your arms, and you will be disabled. It doesn't take much. 

Watch the video and brush up. It could save your life.

The U.S. Is Quietly Establishing Ebola Quarantine Centers

Most border crossings in Liberia, located in West Africa, have been closed and communities hit by an Ebola outbreak face quarantine to try to halt the spread of the virus. The symptoms include high fever, bleeding and central nervous system damage. Fatality rates can reach 90% and the incubation period is two to 21 days. THERE IS NO VACCINE OR CURE (CDC).
 

 How It All Begins

 

United States aid worker, Nancy Writebol, a missionary sent by the Calvary Church in North Carolina, became the second American citizen to contract the Ebola.  Previously, Dr Kent Brantly, a doctor also working at an Ebola clinic in the capital of Liberia, Monrovia, had previously been infected with the deadly Ebola virus while treating victims of the disease at a hospital in West Africa. Ebola is transmitted through bodily fluids, stated Tarik Jasarevic, a spokesman for the WHO, said around 100 health workers had been infected by Ebola in three countries. The virus has now killed 660 people across Guinea, Liberia and Sierra Leone since the outbreak began nearly six months ago. Ebola has a mortality of approximately 90% and overwhelms the health care systems of the communities in which it appears.

I noticed someone else noticed too

The Catholic Church—through the U.S. Conference of Catholic Bishops’ Committee on Migration—both paved the road for Barack Hussein Obama’s ultimate takeover of Free West society and continues to actively enable the Fundamental Transformation of America by sinking the US in a tsunami of illegal aliens.

In coming to Obama’s aid in erasing forever America’s borders, the bishops sold the USA out, including its Catholics, for the proverbial 30 pieces of silver.

In biblical terms, Obama and the Catholic bishops—who both birthed his progress to the seat of power and back him on his Fundamental Transformation mission—are in league with the devil.

Lawsuit Stunner: Half of Futures Trades in Chicago Are Illegal Wash Trades

Since March 30 of this year when bestselling author, Michael Lewis, appeared on 60 Minutes to explain the findings of his latest book, Flash Boys, as “stock market’s rigged,” America has been learning some very uncomfortable truths about the tilted playing field against the public stock investor.
 
Throughout this time, no one has been more adamant than Terrence (Terry) Duffy, the Executive Chairman and President of the CME Group, which operates the largest futures exchange in the world in Chicago, that the charges made by Lewis about the stock market have nothing to do with his market. The futures markets are pristine, according to testimony Duffy gave before the U.S. Senate Agriculture Committee on May 13.

MMA fighter puts training to use in real world

HOUSTON -- 

A local mixed martial arts fighter is talking to us about an incident caught on video where he fights off robbery suspects.

The security video from July 10 shows two men rush up and start attacking a clerk returning to the gas station he works at in southeast Houston. Mayura Dissanayaka was working in the store and ran out to help. He fires off several powerful blows, knocking down a much larger man with the help of his coworkers. The attackers eventually take off.

"I have the skill to fight," Dissanayaka said. "If it's for a good cause, I would do it. Someone is getting beat up pretty badly for no reason, I would stop it."

Piecing things together

This post will do a little bit of back tracking. Since people have incredibly short memories due to the daily distractions of life in the Matrix, I've tried to make it as painless as possible. I know that Emoji game is giving you fits, so I'll let you get back to it shortly.

Patterns are my thing. I notice them very easy. Life is all lines and angles through my eyes. If I'm out somewhere and I notice something crooked, I cannot pass it up without thinking about correcting it first. This applies to canned goods in our pantry, pictures of the Leaning tower of Pisa, and tables that I'm sitting at that wobble. I mean seriously, would it kill you to put a damned sugar packet underneath that short leg so we aren't fighting a 10 degree angle battle the entire time we sit here and eat? HA!

I've noticed that the Catholic Church's name and BCFS (Baptist Child and Family Services) keeps popping up in just about every story you read about this border fiasco. This isn't to bash organized religion in any shape or form, nor is it to bash Catholics or Baptists at all. You guys make great drinking partners and I know that as church goers, you probably didn't see this angle that the church leaders were taking. There is nothing Baptist at all related to BCFS, I've concluded, so you guys are in the clear. See you at the liquor store on Saturday. There's just too many things about all of this mess that strike me as being way too damn conveniently similar for it to not be related.

If you've got the time, I've got the coordinates. Please read and understand the "why" part of what I think is our answer to what we are seeing now, and make your own conclusions. All I can do is tell you where the water is. It's up to you if you want to drink it or not.

Lost tribute flag found almost 10 years later at flea market to be returned to fallen Marine's Mother

SABINE COUNTY TX- 

 A tribute flag dedicated to fallen Lance Corporal Fred Maciel was found July 7 at a Sabine County Flea Market after missing for almost 10 years. Lanie Brown and her husband bought the flag for a mere five dollars despite its true value. 

Brown says the flag was priced cheap because of writing found on the flag. Once she noticed the writing Brown says she knew it belonged to a fallen Marine.

Brown's son and daughter began searching for Maciel using websites and social media. She found that Maciel died in a helicopter accident in Fallujah, Iraq in 2005. Before long Brown realized Maciel's mother lived just hours away in Spring, TX. 

As a mother to a Marine herself, Brown will hand deliver the flag to Maciel's mother on Saturday.

Liberty County deputies depending on food stamps

LIBERTY COUNTY, Texas -- The Liberty County Sheriff's Office says nearly a quarter of its deputies have either applied for or are on food stamps.

According to Capt. Ken DeFoor, at least nine of the department's 37 deputies have applied for government assistance because they can't make ends meet on the agency's $35,800 a year salary.

"To ask someone to put their life on the line for such low salaries is almost a travesty," said DeFoor.

Indeed, the United Nations is now categorizing the present wave of immigrants as refugees from political and domestic violence that are merely seeking asylum in the United States. By declaring this to be the case, the United Nations is “lawfully” exerting their international power to force the United States to openly take in any and all refugees with welcoming arms, at the expense of the American taxpayer.

The memo was provided to The Monitor on the condition of anonymity because the information is not yet public.

Troops are expected to enter the area gradually, building up to 1,000 after about a month, the memo said.

My Deer hunters, where are you at?

I knocked this tasty 4 year old Buck down in November last year up in East Texas, close to where I come from on some family land. This is the biggest low fence Buck I've ever killed. I'd been sitting on the blind for two days in drizzling rain right before Thanksgiving with no luck. Obviously, deer do not move normally in the rain, but I wasn't about to let that slip out and ruin my chance to get away from the wife and kids for a little bit either. Thanksgiving morning I was sitting in my hide thinking it was going to be more of the same. All of the sudden, the sun comes out, and the birds start chirping. We are in business baby. Sure enough, as I'm glassing the pond, I see a fat little doe acting all giddy and shit around a pile of corn. I sit and watch her for probably 5 minutes before I realize that she's not alone as I notice a tail flick out towards the edge of my scope. I move to glass what I saw, and sure enough, there's another deer there. All I could see what the ass end. Right about the time I go to scope the doe again, I see this dude raise his head up and look up the hill where I'm sitting. Instantly, the dopamine hit takes over and I'm "in the zone." At this time of the morning, which was about 8:30, it was still 31 degrees. If you have trained for cold weather shooting, you know that your breath control has to be on point when you are shaking from the cold and anticipation. So there I am, locked on this buck, and he decides he's had enough of this doe's bullshit around the corn pile. He shoots down the embankment about 20 feet to the corn and begins to eat. Problem is, at this point there's a huge oak tree in my line of sight and all I can see is his hind quarters. So I sit and watch. It felt like I was in the scope for at least an hour at this point, when in reality, it was about a minute. He turns finally. He started back up the embankment towards the doe and stopped. Big mistake. I let it fly. That 180gr soft point Core-lokt 30.06 tattooed his shit so hard that when it hit, he jumped straight up in the air with his back hitting at least 10 feet. I've never seen anything like it before. When he hit the ground and started to run I could tell that his internals had just taken a serious impact. He bolted about 30 feet and that was all she wrote hoss. I watched him lay over to make sure he was down and glassed back over to the doe. She just froze in panic I'm guessing. I almost pulled a two-fer that morning but I'm glad I didn't. I've done it once before. As I sat there about to squeeze off, I remembered that doe season was over Sunday, 4 days prior to this moment. SOAB! I let her run off like I was supposed to.

 Entry hole

Exit hole

 

 See this guy? He's the old Buck of the group.

 

The buck I killed is apparently one sired by this old guy. The markings on my buck are very similar around the nose and eyes for him to not to be his son. I range his age to be about 5.5 - 6 years.  He's one of those nocturnal assholes. I never once got glass on him during daylight hours, only the game cam got to witness his bad-assery. I'm pretty sure he knows how to navigate safely being as big and old as he is. This year, it's on old man.

I've never had one get away. If I let it fly, you can bet it's on the money. His ass is going down this fall.

RIP Johnny Winter, Blues Legend

When Johnny Winter hit the scene back in the '60s, he looked and sounded like nothing else on the planet.

A ferocious blues guitar player with a snarling voice to match, Winter, who died Wednesday in a hotel room near Zurich, Switzerland, also cut a striking figure on stage with his thin, pale frame and long, white hair.

A 1968 Rolling Stone article described him as "a cross-eyed albino with long, fleecy hair, who plays some of the gutsiest, fluid blues you've ever heard."

If, as its mythology suggests, the blues comes from the crossroads, Winter found himself at a heavily trafficked intersection. Hailing from Beaumont, Texas, he's part of a line of Lone Star blues guitarists that stretches from Lightnin' Hopkins and T-Bone Walker to Stevie Ray Vaughan and Eric Johnson and beyond. Winter also arrived at a time when British rock guitarists were hearing the blues, then feeding it back to American audiences in new forms. Winter found himself right in the middle of all that, earning the admiration, even the awe, of those who heard him.

**Update** BCFS Withdraws Bid For $50 Million Illegal Alien Resort Spa

UPDATE:

I covered it here yesterday.

Via Gateway Pundit: Due to a massive backlash after the $50 million resort story was posted on The Drudge Report, Baptist Child and Family Services withdrew it’s bid for the Palm Aire Resort.

The charity said it was disappointed and that the resort would have been perfect for the illegal alien children.

Everyone agrees the migrants streaming across the border illegally should be treated humanely and with care before they are sent back to their home countries. But the promise of a two week stay in a resort hotel is precisely the wrong message to be sending the citizens of Central America.

On Friday, April 4, the locally based nonprofit group will hold interviews from 1 to 4 p.m. at Workforce Solutions Alamo, 6723 S. Flores St.

BCFS welcomes applicants for its case manager jobs, which offer a $30 hourly wage and require prior case management experience and Spanish-bilingual proficiency in both reading and writing. A Bachelor’s degree is preferred.

On Saturday and Monday, BCFS will conduct more interviews on the North Side at Hyatt Place Stone Oak, 1610 E. Sonterra Blvd., from 10 a.m. to 4 p.m. each day.

There, the company may hire on-the-spot for case managers, clinicians, resident nurses, licensed vocational nurses, paramedics and direct care staff. All positions require Spanish-bilingual proficiency in reading and writing.

Based in San Antonio, BCFS has offices across the nation and globe and in a news release said applicants may have the possibility of future deployment anywhere in the United States.

Beefing up in April? 250 position offering? It only took what, 11 weeks from when this job offering was posted in April to when I wrote this?   


Words you should pay attention to from above: "Emergency Management Division, across the nation, future deployment."

This tells me the plan was in place and the intent was clear for all of this back then. It was surely known. This also tells me that they were put on notice (psssst, hey buddy) to hire 250 spots by those who knew what was coming. Like I said before, this was all intentional and they wanted to make sure they had their ducks in a row before they got caught with their pants down and unprepared. It had to look like they were all in place to handle this mess before hand to "save us" from this invasion.

Problem, Reaction, Solution.

Whiskey Tango Foxtrot, Over?

Welcome to America!

The Obama administration has awarded a $50 million contract to a charitable group to buy a Texas resort hotel and transform it in to a 600 bed facility for juvenile illegal aliens.

The beautiful Palm Aire resort and hotel has an indoor Olympic sized pool and an outdoor pool. Free Wi-Fi and cable TV are included in the simply decorated guest rooms. The Palm Aire Hotel and Suites is set to be sold to Baptist Child & Family Services (BCFS) operating under a federal contract, pending local government approval, according to reports from Weslaco, Texas where the hotel is located. Weslaco is a few miles north of the Rio Grande in Hidalgo County. The resort hotel for illegal alien children is reportedly the ‘first in the nation’.

Thoughts?

Hump Day

Somewhere right now, there are haters of everything American who are planning a way to screw you over. 

I wish I could say they will give you the damned courtesy of a reach around, but I think those days are gone now. Now, they just outright get into to the impalement phase.

Have a great day folks.

What comes before Part B?

PARTAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAYYY!!

Nailed it, they did...

U.N. seeking to intervene in U.S. border crisis

 

 

UNITED NATIONS – Representatives of the United Nations High Commissioner for Refugees, or UNHRC, are “intensely discussing in meetings” the possibility of extending U.N. protection to the thousands of Central Americans crossing the U.S. border with Mexico illegally by defining them as “refugees” who are seeking asylum from political and domestic violence in their home nations, WND has confirmed.

And by "intensely discussing", I'm sure they mean foaming at the mouth to be able put their blue helmet "peace keepers" in charge of this intentionally manufactured border crisis. These people are not refugees. Once they are declared "refugees" they GET TO STAY! They are illegal aliens pouring over the border in droves. I know my wise and awake readers saw THIS  over at Weasel Zippers about an advertisement for escorts needed for the illegal children, dating back to January of this year. It's all falling into place right? Piece by piece? Nothing like the ole' disguise of a "Humanitarian Crisis" to get the UN involved. I strongly advise increasing your training, PT, and preparations. If you can't see where this is headed then you are already lost. 

 

Think about it like this : Illegal Invasion dubbed "Humanitarian Crisis" starts the invitation of UN Forces to be brought in and to help protect these "Refugees"... They'll start out with tents and doctors, and they'll be "saving lives." When it goes nuclear hot because they cannot keep up with the influx, as it inevitably will, the Blue Helmets will arrive on cue. That will be the defining moment for the police, federal agents and military. We all know what the UN Small Arms Treaty was about. We all know that the Global Elitists hate us as Americans because we have the means of solving problems with the squeeze of a trigger. Do you honestly think that just because the anti crowd has gone quiet on gun control that they are done going after your right to bear arms? Do you think that they forgot that your firearm is the only thing keeping you from being fully subjugated by a communist/marxist sympathizing dictator? Stay alert and pay attention friends. Our futures are being discussed right now by a bunch of communist doctrine loving psychopaths and they've got plans for us. Mark it...
