It’s just endless. Media creates hoax, media figures and politicians repeat hoax, social media spreads hoax, then late night political talk show goes on fake moral crusade about the hoax, the left then encodes a permanent religious belief in hoax, rinse repeat
Jimmy Kimmel took aim at Donald Trump after the president invited Iran to bomb California.
"That’s one of the craziest, indefensible statements I’ve ever heard even this maniac make."

BOMBSHELL: Becerra caught LYING about being the “son of immigrants” after records show his father was born in Sacramento.
This is pure identity politics—built around an identity that's fabricated. Utterly DISGUSTING.
The more you see of Becerra, the more you realize what a totally contemptible, cynical career politician he is.

ICYMI: According to a new DHS IG report, the Biden administration ICE received over 3.1 million leads on visa overstays during FY21-FY24, including more than 100,000 flagged as public safety threats.
They arrested just eight of them.
Almost zero enforcement of visa overstays.
NEW: A new DHS Inspector General report finds the Biden administration took almost no enforcement action against visa overstays, including public safety threats, and arrested only a handful out of millions. The numbers are stunning. From FY21-FY24:
- ICE received over 3.1 million visa overstay leads, roughly 104,000 of which had public safety or national security concerns. But that resulted in only 496 investigations by ICE (2%) and ONLY EIGHT ARRESTS.
- A September 2021 Mayorkas policy memo directed ICE to target only illegal immigrants considered “Priority 1 leads” (highest threat to public safety). Out of 1,769 viable Priority 1 visa overstay leads, ICE only conducted 84 investigations (5%), resulting in ONLY 2 ARRESTS.
- The majority of the more than 3 million visa overstay leads were deemed “non-priority”. 2.8 million of these “non-priority” leads were sent to ICE for investigation, leading to just 5 investigations and ONLY TWO ARRESTS. (out of 2.8 million!)
Another shocking piece of the report, visa overstays tracked by CBP exploded by 364% during Biden’s first full year in office (Fiscal Year 2022).
CBP tracked visa overstays in FY2021: 171,269
CBP tracked visa overstays in FY2022: 795,167
THE DHS IG concluded the 2021 Mayorkas memo is largely behind the lack of enforcement.
“ICE conducted few nonimmigrant overstay lead-initiated investigations and arrested even fewer foreign nationals who stayed beyond or violated the terms of their admission because of the September 2021 policy that directed ICE’s limited resources only to leads posing a threat to national security, public safety, and border security. When ICE did attempt to pursue action on a lead, it encountered challenges verifying addresses and locating the foreign nationals present in the United States. Further, ICE did not have sufficient resources to pursue all overstay leads.”

President Trump's comments as delivered, in context...Anyone saying he called for the bombing of San Diego & L.A. is either not in command of how real people speak, or is a lying charlatan. Either way, you know they can't be trusted.

My entire “For You” feed is left wingers pretending Trump wants Iran to bomb California.
Their commitment to stupidity and dishonesty is epic.

C’mon. He’s saying the small price to pay is pain at the pump bc they want to take out San Diego and/or LA. Democratic presidents have only placated Iran for years!
San Diego is not collateral damage.
We are not expendable.
And we are never a "small price to pay."
Keep our city out of your reckless war talk.

I have been pretty critical of Trump on Iran, but this is a shamefully dishonest mischaracterization of what he said, which is that he does not want that to happen, and that he thinks that higher gas prices are worth it to ensure that it doesn't.

Exactly.
Trump's phrasing was a jumbled mess, as is often the case. But clear from the context that he wasn't advocating attacks on LA and SD. He was defending the Iran war and the high cost of fuel today.
These headlines are a disgrace and another example of why nobody trusts the media. If you watch the full clip, it's clear what he is saying is that high oil prices are a small price to pay for stopping Iran from getting a nuke that would allow them to take out US cities.
