Migrants move into Boston's AIRPORT as 'sanctuary city' runs out of beds for them and Dem. governor warns border crossers that her state is 'full'
Getting what they demanded, good and hard.
  • Migrants were seen sleeping underneath blankets on benches at Boston Logan International Airport on Friday

  • They arrived as the Massachusetts shelter cap reached its maximum and there is deadlock over how to spend $250million for emergency shelters

  • Massachusetts has a right-to shelter law which requires it to provide housing for the homeless but Governor Maura Healey warned the state is out of room

#1  "Dem. governor warns border crossers that her state is 'full'"

QUESTION: Why, should ANY governor have to publish a NO VACANCY sign to begin with?

The DC Swamp needs to get off its asses, secure the border and start returning the estimated many of the 14+ Million ILLEGALS NOW here.

Since there are jobs for 8 to 10 million ILLEGALS. Then it is time this latest US Generation ? of lazy Social Media raised misfits, start working instead of milking mommy and daddy into their 30's+.

Besides, the US Taxpayer has a hard enough time just paying for the normal stupid DC Swamp Pork Barrel spending, without this newly created Taco Barrel.

Caucasus/Russia/Central Asia
More than 400 people brought to justice after riots in Makhachkala
Direct Translation via Google Translate. Edited.
[KavkazUzel] The courts of Dagestan have received administrative cases of 412 people accused of offenses during the anti-Semitic action and riots at the Makhachkala airport.
Impressive.
As the "Caucasian Knot" wrote, by November 14, the courts of Dagestan after the riots at the Makhachkala airport received 302 protocols under the article on violation of the procedure for holding actions and another 34 protocols on other administrative articles.

On October 29, mass riots occurred at Makhachkala airport due to reports of the arrival of a plane with passengers from Israel. More than 20 people were injured in the riots, including nine police officers. A criminal case is also being investigated in connection with the unrest; at least 27 people have been arrested and appealed their arrest to the Supreme Court of Dagestan.

By November 18, the district courts of Dagestan had received administrative cases of 412 people accused in connection with the unrest in Makhachkala, Mediazona reports today.

In relation to 394 people, security forces drew up protocols under the article on violation of the procedure for holding actions (20.2 of the Code of Administrative Offenses of the Russian Federation). Of these, 15 people were also prosecuted for petty hooliganism (20.1 Code of Administrative Offenses), four for violating security screening requirements at the airport (11.15.1 Code of Administrative Offences), three for disobedience to the police (19.3 Code of Administrative Offences), the publication writes.

For another 18 people, protocols were drawn up under the article on organizing mass stays of citizens in public places (20.2.2 of the Administrative Code), the publication says.

From October 26 to 29, mass anti-Semitic actions took place in the cities of three republics of the North Caucasus Federal District. In Cherkessk, protesters demanded that visitors from Israel not be allowed in, and in Nalchik a cultural center was set on fire. In Khasavyurt, Dagestan, hundreds of people gathered at a hotel after messages on social networks that there were refugees from Israel in this hotel, according to the Caucasian Knot report “ Anti-Semitic actions in the North Caucasus: how it happened .” The Caucasian Knot has also prepared a report entitled “ A Wave of Anti-Semitic Actions in the North Caucasus .”

Let us recall that by November 13, the Kizilyurt District Court had considered 22 cases of participants in the riots at the Makhachkala airport and found all the defendants guilty , giving them penalties ranging from fines of 10,000 rubles to ten days of arrest.

#2  Hummm!, aren't the LSD's always telling us we need to be more like the countries overseas, even Russia?

If so, we likely have 100,000 that already need to be in court according to the selectively enforced 18 U.S. Code § 249 - Hate crime law. A law that the Liberal Democrats championed.

University fires head of sex assault center who signed letter denying Oct. 7 rapes
[Times of Israel] President of University of Alberta in Edmonton, Canada, says director of campus center no longer employed by university, apologizes for ‘hurt and distress’

The University of Alberta in Edmonton, Canada, indicated in a statement on Saturday that it had fired the head of the campus sexual assault center who signed onto an open letter denying Hamas-led terrorists raped women during their devastating October 7 onslaught in southern Israel.

Samantha Pearson signed the letter, titled “Stand with Palestine: Call on Political Leaders to End Their Complicity in Genocide,” which slammed center-left New Democratic Party leader Jagmeet Singh for repeating “the unverified accusation that Palestinians were guilty of sexual violence,” among other critiques of the lawmaker on the issue.



The center’s account on X has since been deactivated.

The letter was authored by Susan Kim, a city councilor in Victoria, and Sarah Jama, a member of Ontario’s provincial parliament who was booted from the NDP over remarks only three days after the October 7 massacre calling Israel an “apartheid” state while ignoring Hamas’s atrocities.

In a letter posted to X, the University of Alberta said “the recent improper and unauthorized use of the name of the [university]’s Sexual Assault Centre in endorsing an open letter has raised understandable concerns from members of our community and the public.”

“Effective immediately, the director of the centre is no longer employed by the university,” the letter read. A new interim director was appointed to head the campus sexual assault center, the university said.

Chris Christie Drags Bloated Carcass to Israel For Photo Op, Internet Destroys Him With Memes
[AP via PJ] Even when I came up with the awesome and seemingly obvious nickname Chris "Kristy Kreme" Christie and mused why Trump hasn’t employed it yet, I was convinced, and remain convinced, that somebody, somewhere must have thought of it before.

Admittedly, making fun of Chris Christie for being a human-walrus hybrid is low-hanging fruit and low-brow entertainment. But if anyone deserves to be ruthlessly mocked for their gluttony and slovenness, it’s this guy.

Anyway, Christie, who has absolutely no chance of winning the GOP nomination because everyone hates him for being a Judas but who absolutely has a guaranteed MSNBC contributor gig and spot on the Raytheon board after his campaign implodes, took a trip to Israel for some photo-op action.

WaPo: ‘Tentative' Deal for 5-Day Pause in Gaza, 50+ Hostages (No Soldiers, Men); Bibi says no deal yet
[Breitbart] The Washington Post reported Saturday night (in Israel, Sunday morning) that a tentative deal had been reached in which there would be a five-day pause in fighting in Gaza in exchange for the release of at least 50 female and child hostages by Hamas.

No men would be released under the deal, and no male or female soldiers, according to the Post, which cited unnamed officials describing an agreement brokered by the U.S. and Qatar as intermediaries between Israel and the Hamas terror organization.

US official: No significant pause in war until all women and child hostages are freed

[IsraelTimes] Aligning Biden administration with Israel, Brett McGurk says ’the release of a large number of hostages’ will also lead to ’a massive surge of humanitarian relief’ into the Strip

US President Joe The Big Guy Biden
...46th president of the U.S. Sleazy Dem machine politician, paterfamilias of the Biden Crime Family...
’s main adviser on the Middle East said Saturday there would be not be a "significant pause" in the Israel-Hamas
...always the voice of sweet reason...
war until all women and kiddies held by murderous Moslems in Gazoo
...Hellhole adjunct to Israel and Egypt's Sinai Peninsula, inhabited by Gazooks. The place was acquired in the wake of the 1967 War and then presented to Paleostinian control in 2006 by Ariel Sharon, who had entered his dotage. It is currently ruled with an iron fist by Hamas with about the living conditions you'd expect. It periodically attacks the Hated Zionist Entity whenever Iran needs a ruckus created or the hard boyz get bored, getting thumped by the IDF in return. The ruling turbans then wave the bloody shirt and holler loudly about oppression and disproportionate response...
are freed, aligning the administration with Israel’s position.

"The surge in humanitarian relief, the surge in fuel, the pause... will come when hostages are released," Brett McGurk told a security conference in Bahrain.

The release of "all women, children, toddlers and babies" would result in "a significant pause... and a massive surge of humanitarian relief," he elaborated.

The "onus is on Hamas," McGurk said, to take steps that would lead to a pause in the fighting.
From another Times of Israel article:
Prime Minister Netanyahu, at his ongoing press conference, is asked if he passed up a serious deal on Tuesday for a release of some 50 hostages, and if he’s insisting that all be released.

Netanyahu says “There was no deal on the table” and he can’t elaborate further.

“We want to get back all the hostages,” he says. “We’re doing the utmost to bring back the most possible, including in stages, and we are united on this.”

“We obviously want to bring [home] whole families together,” he adds later in the press conference.
To summarize: Until a deal is signed, there is no deal, no matter how excited the Washington Post, et al might be about it.
