Masked officers, no warrant: Video raises more concerns about ICE tactics in NJ​

Nov 20, 2025
A Ring camera recording appears to show masked federal immigration agents at the doorstep of a Burlington Township woman's house. The jackets read “POLICE,” and one patch reads “ERO,” but they never identify which agency they represent. They present no badge and no warrant.

Almost two years ago, I demanded Governor Brian Kemp either declare an illegal invasion or resign…

My staffer and I exposed a hidden room deep inside Hartsfield-Jackson Atlanta International Airport. It was packed with illegal migrants and guarded by active-duty U.S. military personnel. We busted in James O’Keefe-style, cameras rolling, and started filming everything.

Once they realized we were filming, an Army officer tried to rip the camera out of my hands.

I knew something was wrong… The Atlanta Mayor called me a liar. Kemp ignored me. The RINOs laughed. The fake news called me "extreme."

Today, a bombshell Senate report just confirmed everything I said was 100% true—and worse. The Biden administration forced at least 11 U.S. airports — including Atlanta — to turn secure facilities into illegal alien housing and processing centers.

Federal agencies were ordered to find airport space to shelter illegal aliens.

Governor Kemp had the power to stop this. He had the evidence. He had the duty…

Instead, he looked the other way while Georgia became a staging ground for Biden’s open-border disaster. I’m sick of the excuses. I’m sick of the RINOs protecting their own power while our state is overrun.

And I’m sick of watching good Georgians pay the price—higher crime, strained schools, packed hospitals, and skyrocketing housing costs—all because spineless politicians refuse to fight.

We told you this was happening.

They called us conspiracy theorists.

Now the Senate report proves we were right all along.

The invasion is real. The betrayal is real. And the fight is far from over.
 

Farmworkers sue over Trump’s low wages for foreign guest workers​

A California union and a group of farmworkers from around the country are suing to stop new, lower-wage federal guidelines that save money for farmers but cut pay for temporary foreign agriculture workers — hurting local laborers as a result, the suit alleges.

In a lawsuit filed Friday in federal court, the United Farm Workers and 18 individual workers sued the U.S. Department of Labor over the October guidelines for laborers who are in the United States under temporary, H-2A visas. The new guidelines set lower wages — differentiating them by state — including pay cuts to account for the value of free housing provided by law to foreign workers.

“Farm workers, and the rural communities across America they sustain, need and deserve fair wages and job security, not a race to the bottom with an endless supply of cheap foreign labor,” Teresa Romero, president of the United Farm Workers, said in a statement announcing the lawsuit.

National Guard member dies as ambush in U.S. capital becomes political flashpoint​

A National Guard member died on Thursday after being shot near the White House in an ambush that investigators say was carried out by an Afghan national, an attack President Donald Trump blamed on Biden-era immigration vetting failures as he ordered a sweeping review of asylum cases.

Sarah Beckstrom, 20, died of her wounds and her fellow Guardsman Andrew Wolfe, 24, was “fighting for his life,” Trump said, as investigators conducted what officials said was a terrorism probe after Wednesday’s shooting.

The FBI searched multiple properties in a widening investigation, including a home in Washington state linked to the suspect, who officials said was part of a CIA-backed unit in Afghanistan before coming to the U.S. in 2021 under a resettlement program.

Trump says U.S. to ‘permanently pause migration from all Third World Countries’ after DC shooting​

  • Trump escalated his immigration rhetoric after a National Guard member died on Thursday following a fatal shooting.
  • His posts targeted undefined “Third World Countries” and federal benefits for noncitizens.
  • His remarks follow the shooting of two National Guard members near the White House in an attack tied to an Afghan national.
U.S. President Donald Trump on Thursday announced sweeping plans to tighten immigration rules, including a suspension on migration from “Third World Countries” and cancellation of all federal benefits and subsidies to “noncitizens” in the country.

In a pair of Truth Social posts late Thursday night, Trump said he would “permanently pause migration from all Third World Countries to allow the U.S. system to fully recover,” without specifying what would be considered a “third world” country. The term loosely referred to countries with higher poverty rates and economic instability.

🚨 ALERT: Afghan National Involved in Fairfax Police Shooting Linked to Recent DC Incident Involving National Guard Members

Yesterday, November 26, two National Guard members—Pfc. Andrew Wolfe, 24, and Spc. Sarah Beckstrom, 20—were critically injured in a shooting near the White House in Washington, DC. The suspect, Rahmanullah Lakanwal, an Afghan national who entered the U.S. in 2021, reportedly drove from across the country before the incident. Both service members, who had just been sworn in less than 24 hours prior as part of enhanced security measures under President Trump, are receiving medical treatment.

Looking back to April 23 in Fairfax, VA: A routine traffic stop escalated when Jamal Wali, 36, another Afghan national, expressed frustration and mentioned the Taliban before firing at officers. One bullet injured two officers in their arms, but they were treated and released. Wali was fatally shot in the exchange. Body camera footage captured the event, showing his anger toward the U.S.

These incidents raise questions about vetting processes. Both individuals entered the U.S. under programs from the Obama and Biden administrations—Wali in 2014 as a translator, and Lakanwal through asylum pathways amid the Afghanistan withdrawal. Concerns have been voiced about border security and immigration policies that may have allowed unvetted entries.

President Trump is addressing this by deploying 500 additional Guardsmen, but many are calling for stronger measures to secure the border. Share if you support accountability and safer policies!
 


I’ll be using this phrasing from now on when people with zero access to ground reporting insist 10,000 terrorists didn’t come in. What everyone must do now is simple: PREPARE.👇

“Over 85k Afghans—including individuals with backgrounds similar to this shooter— were rapidly admitted into our country without the rigorous vetting that has protected us in the past. And that's just Afghans; broader immigration from Muslim majority nations & regions surged, with over 2 million individuals entering during Biden's term, often with minimal scrutiny amid record border crossings. This is a deadly combination.”
 

CONSPIRACY THEORY NO MORE:

Stephen Miller: “The Democrat Party, via the Biden-Harris Terrorist Administration devised a scheme to import illegal aliens into the country by the millions — granting them ‘parole,’ which gives them work permits, which gives them Social Security numbers, which gives them access to the voting booth — and finally hooking them on welfare like Hunter Biden hooked on drugs, all with the sole purpose of participating in U.S. elections and ultimately overthrowing the Constitutional Republic of the United States.”

The whole f**king is seditious,
 


US Department of Housing Secretary Scott Turner confirms Democrats were allowing illegals to purchase homes in America and American taxpayers were buying their homes

Again, American taxpayers have been paying for homes for illegals. Literally making their mortgage payments

“You're also working with the Federal Housing Administration to crack down on government-backed mortgages for illegals”

“We also took away FHA-backed mortgages from illegal aliens during the Biden administration. They turned a blind eye. But we're going to keep the law to make sure that these mortgages, which are backed by the taxpayer, go only to the American people”
 


India has only ever participated in the Program for International Student Assessment (PISA) once, in 2009

Because it's administered via computer by external administrators and not school staff they couldn't cheat

They scored so low they never participated again out of sheer embarrassment - almost dead last

Every measure of Indian performance today is fraudulent. The cheating starts very early in schools where the kids all cheat off one another and teachers accept bribes to give answers

This continues into colleges where exam questions are often repeats of previous years or "leaked" early

When they can't even enter college they can simply buy fraudulent degrees on the open market for about $300 USD

But when they arrive in the West into demanding roles like doctors or software engineers they're hilarious inept and it's readily visible to all their peers. During interviews they regurgitate buzzwords without any sense of understanding what they mean

But it doesn't matter to them, they only care that they got the high paying job

There is no "best and brightest" from India - their average IQ is 76, on par with Sudan. Indian immigration needs to be shut down entirely

That nut job was playing with a pellet gun outside of a synagogue. When the cops got there he claimed he was "hunting rats." Now what kind of a Harvard professor goes out hunting rats? Before he self teleports I think he should talk to a head doctor. Be neat to see that televised.
 
It's probably worse than that!



🚨 HOLY CRAP! It was just revealed that the Somali Minnesota fraud might end up toward $8 BILLION DOLLARS, not just $1 billion

Gov. Tim Walz, what have you done?!🤯🤯

"Several whistleblowers say they believe the total fraud could total up to more than $8 BILLION!"

"Investigators are finding more by the DAY. The SBA found in 2 days - at least $1 million in PPP fraud! Just 2 days in!"


Deport Somalis.




Democrats. Does any of this surprise you? Walz is a two-bit hoodlum compared to Newscum. Look at the Billions missing from California.
 


🇺🇸 CONSTRUCTION COMPANY OWNER ON LOUISIANA ICE OPERATIONS: "NO IMMIGRANTS WANT TO GO TO WORK - IT'S AMAZING"

A Louisiana construction business owner just went viral after describing how ICE and DHS operations in the state have instantly reshaped the local labor market.

He says that within one week of stepped-up immigration enforcement, immigrant workers stopped showing up, job sites stalled, and his phone started ringing nonstop with desperate contractors asking for help.

His rant captures the raw frustration of small contractors who believe illegal labor has undercut wages for years, and who now see the crackdown as a long-overdue reset for the industry.

“No immigrants want to go to work, and it is amazing.

I’ve gotten more calls in the last week than I got in the last 3 months.

When Biden got into office, he really messed up my industry, badly.

GCs are going to have to start paying up; everything’s about to get realistic.

I am so thankful for ICE and DHS.”

:iagree:

The majority of the companies/money snakes back to the 0.1% who own/control about 80% :devilish:

They can pay the real wages, but DON'T WANT TO ! They want the cheap illegals so as to boost their profits.

I saw an article recently that showed that the 0.1%ers assets/value had " INCREASED " by $4 TRILLION between 2020 & 2025 - INCREASED !

They are not short of money, they are just GREEDY for more money at your expense, at your children's expense.

The ROT/CORUPTION has made it to the core. How do u think Americans combined Gov/Corporates/Business/Citizens DEBT got to a combined $100 + TRILLION ? & that's not including " unfunded Liabilities "

The Bankster's :devilish:( thru the FED ) since 1913 instigated the " Greatest Theft " in history with their Fiat Currency & DEBT/CREDIT System.

Just the interest on Gov Public Debt is $1.2 TRILLION. Where do u think that money goes ( Hint - look to the 0.1%ers who own the Banks that Finance it all )

Stephen Miller Is an Immigration Hypocrite. I Know Because I’m His Uncle.​

If my nephew’s ideas on immigration had been in force a century ago, our family would have been wiped out.

Let me tell you a story about Stephen Miller and chain migration.

It begins at the turn of the 20th century, in a dirt-floor shack in the village of Antopol, a shtetl of subsistence farmers in what is now Belarus. Beset by violent anti-Jewish pogroms and forced childhood conscription in the Czar’s army, the patriarch of the shack, Wolf-Leib Glosser, fled a village where his forebears had lived for centuries and took his chances in America.

He set foot on Ellis Island on January 7, 1903, with $8 to his name. Though fluent in Polish, Russian and Yiddish, he understood no English. An elder son, Nathan, soon followed. By street corner peddling and sweatshop toil, Wolf-Leib and Nathan sent enough money home to pay off debts and buy the immediate family’s passage to America in 1906. That group included young Sam Glosser, who with his family settled in the western Pennsylvania city of Johnstown, a booming coal and steel town that was a magnet for other hardworking immigrants. The Glosser family quickly progressed from selling goods from a horse and wagon to owning a haberdashery in Johnstown run by Nathan and Wolf-Leib to a chain of supermarkets and discount department stores run by my grandfather, Sam, and the next generation of Glossers, including my dad, Izzy. It was big enough to be listed on the AMEX stock exchange and employed thousands of people over time. In the span of some 80 years and five decades, this family emerged from poverty in a hostile country to become a prosperous, educated clan of merchants, scholars, professionals, and, most important, American citizens.

You are correct. But can you really say that Australia is any better off?
AUS political system ? Not better, but different :unsure:

Big difference is that Lobbying is more restricted & still somewhat scrutinized. There is still some media in AUS that tries to hold the Gov to account.

The big difference is that AUS can't print it's own currency at will. AUS must borrow on the world market at market set rates. But the fucking Dumbass/Idiot Politician have still manage to get Federal Debt to $1 TRILLION in a country with less than $4 TRILLION GDP.

So we have a bunch of Arseholes running AUS, just like the USA has :devilish:🤡
