Border Patrol leader told to keep quiet about immigration open door policies

 Red State:

A former chief patrol agent for the Border Patrol’s San Diego Sector delivered damning testimony Wednesday before the House Homeland Security committee, saying that he was muzzled by the administration and told not to release information about illegal border crossers with possible terrorist ties.

The chief alleged that the Biden-Harris regime was trying to mislead the public:

Aaron Heitke, who served as the chief patrol agent for U.S. Border Patrol’s San Diego sector, claimed during a House hearing Wednesday that arrests of “significant interest aliens” have increased since President Joe Biden took office.

He defined “significant interest aliens” as people with ties to terrorism and accused the administration of trying to cover up a rise in arrest statistics.

“At the time, I was told I could not release any information on this increase in SIAs or mention any of the arrests,” Heitke said. “The administration was trying to convince the public there was no threat at the border.”

"The Biden-Harris administration has intentionally left us vulnerable," the committee posted on its website.

...

Fox News reporter Bill Melugin writes in the above tweet:

He says San Diego sector typically saw 10-15 SIA arrests per year, but in 2022, 2023, & 2024, when word was about the border was easy to get across, those numbers exploded to over 100 each year. 

He also testified that the Biden admin forbid him from speaking to the media, and he was told to move migrants out of sight of the media, also adding that, “I had to release illegal aliens by the hundreds each day into communities who could not support them. To quiet the problem, two flights a week were provided from San Diego to Texas. These flights simply brought aliens that would have been released in San Diego over to Texas.” [Bolding mine.]

This testimony is stunning, though not surprising. The Biden-Harris team has left a welcome mat for illegal aliens since day one of the regime, when they began systematically shredding former President Trump's far more effective border policies.

The committee reported that the administration's dereliction of duty has put the nation in danger. They note there have been over 10.1 million aliens encountered at our borders, with nearly two million "gotaways.” ...

...

The Biden-Harris border policy has been irresponsible from day one of their administration and they are now trying to hide their evil ways.  Their policy is apparently to try to import as many illegals as they can in hopes of changing the demographics of the country and giving the Democrats a permanent majority.  They are willing to accept that criminals are also coming through their open borders policy and that is endangering citizens.

Should Republicans go ahead and add Supreme Court Justices to head off Democrats

Washington Post: Some Democrats eye adding more justices to the Supreme Court to change its ideological bent The once-remote idea has gained the attention of liberals angered by the GOP push to remake the federal courts. Probably the easy way to defeat this court-packing scheme is for Trump to propose doing the same thing now.  It would lead to Democrat denunciations and claims that it would be wrong, thereby blowing up any attempt by them in the unfortunate event of Democrats winning a presidential election.

29 % of companies say they are unlikely to keep insurance after Obamacare

Conn Carroll: A new survey of 368 midsize to large companies found that 29% of them are considering terminating their active employee health care plans when Obamacare is full implemented in 2014. Only 71% of employers surveyed said they did not expect to drop their health coverage, while 20% said they did not know and 9% said they were planning to exit. The latest survey, conducted by Towers Watson, echoes an ealier survey by McKinsey & Co. finding that 30% of private-sector employers were planning to drop their employee health insurance coverage by 2014. When the Congressional Budget Office crunched Obamacare's spending numbers, they estimated that only 7% of employees currently covered by employer-sponsored plans would lose their plans. ... This means the cost of the health care fiasco will be hundreds of billions more than estimated by the CBO and Congressional Democrat. It is also clear that Obama's pledge that you could keep your health care plan if you wanted t

Bin Laden's concern about Zarqawi's remains

James Robbins: ... Bin Laden suggests that President Bush should allow Zarqawi’s body to be returned to his family in Jordan, but this is a matter that is up to the Jordanian government, which so far has not shown much interest in facilitating a homecoming. Bin Laden mocks King Abdullah II, calling him a Coalition minion, and asking “w hat scares you about Abu Musab after he’s dead? You know that his funeral, if allowed to happen, would be a huge funeral showing the extent of sympathy with the mujahedin.” A large crowd would definitely turn out, though most people would be on hand to demonstrate their anger and disgust. Last November’s hotel bombings in Amman , masterminded by Zarqawi, are still fresh in people’s memory, and mentioning them to Jordanians has the same visceral impact as memory of the 9/11 attacks does here. Jordan has adopted a zero-tolerance policy towards those who choose to mourn the country’s least favorite son, and four opposition members of parliament who paid con
