[JustTheNews] "The long-term goal of the so-called 'Border Security' bill is enabling illegals to vote!" Musk also said.
Tesla CEO Elon Musk on Monday continued his charge against illegal immigration by calling for nongovernmental organization personnel to be criminally charged if they purposely break the law to facilitate illegal border crossings.
"NGO personnel who deliberately and repeatedly broke the law to facilitate illegal immigration should face prosecution immediately!" Musk wrote Monday on his platform X, formerly Twitter.
Musk's post came in response to a picture of an excerpt from the Senate border security bill, which stated that $2.3 billion would be allocated to "qualified organizations, including nonprofit entities" for "refugee and entrant assistance activities," including housing, medical and legal assistance.
Musk heavily criticized the border bill in multiple posts Monday.
"The long-term goal of the so-called 'Border Security' bill is enabling illegals to vote!" he wrote on X early Monday morning. "It will do the total opposite of securing the border."
His criticism of the illegal immigration crisis began before the Senate released its border security bill Sunday.
Musk has been particularly vocal recently in calling for a crackdown on illegal immigration. On Friday, he said that the Biden administration is encouraging illegal immigration to "create a permanent majority."

[SUDANTRIBUNE] The Sudan ...a Moslem country located in the Horn of Africa. It is noted for its affinity for rule by ex- or current generals, its holy men, and for the oppression of the native Afro population by its Arab conquerors.

[HODHODYEMENNEWS.NET] Ansarullah front man and head of the Sana’a negotiating delegation, Mohammed Abdulsalam, said that the continuation of the American and British aggression against our country "will not achieve any goals for the aggressors, but rather will increase their dilemmas and problems at the regional level."
"Yemen ...an area of the Arabian Peninsula sometimes mistaken for a country. It is populated by more antagonistic tribes and factions than you can keep track of... ’s decision to support 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... is firm and principled and will not be affected by any aggression," Mohammed Abdulsalam said in a post on his X account on Sunday.
He added, "Regarding Yemen’s military capabilities, we would like to emphasise that they are not easily destroyed and have been rebuilt amid years of harsh warfare."
"Instead of escalating and igniting a new front in the region, America and Britannia should comply with international public opinion, which demands an immediate stop to the "Israeli" aggression, lifting the siege on Gaza, and to stop protecting "Israel" at the expense of the Paleostinian people," he emphasised.
He stressed, "It must be emphasised that the aggressive raids, whether on our country or on Iraq and Syria, will increase the hatred of the peoples and unite them against the American colonial presence in the region."

The style seems horribly familiar. Does our troll of thousand names moonlight as "Mohammed Abdulsalam"? Or is trolling the 'burg is how Mohammed Abdulsalam passes his free time?
[Jpost] The Australian government said on Monday it had refused a request by a livestock exporter to send a ship carrying around 14,000 sheep and 1,500 cattle on a month-long voyage around Africa to Israel.
The animals have been on board the vessel for a month, prompting outcry from animal rights advocates who have likened their treatment to torture.
The MV Bahijah sailed from Australia for Israel on Jan. 5 but abandoned a passage through the Red Sea due to threat of attack by Yemen's Houthi militia and was ordered home by the Australian government.
[TheAlgemeiner] The grandson of a member of the Israeli Olympic squad who was murdered by Palestinian terrorists at the 1972 Munich Olympics has been badly beaten up in an antisemitic assault outside a Berlin bar on Friday night.
Lahav Shapira, 30, was attacked by his assailant as he left a bar where he had been drinking with his girlfriend. He was rushed to hospital where he underwent surgery for non-life threatening injuries. Images of Shapira posted on social media after the attack by his brother, Shahak — a popular comedian based in Germany — showed him with his face and lips badly swollen.
Shapira — whose grandfather Amitzur, the head coach of the 1972 Israeli Olympic track and field team, was among the 11 squad members murdered after being taken hostage by Palestinian terrorists inside the Olympic village — is a student at the Free University in Berlin, where he has emerged as a vocal advocate for Israel in the wake of the Oct. 7, 2023 Hamas pogrom in which over 1,200 were killed and more than 200 seized as hostages.
The official account of the assault published by the Berlin police differed dramatically from Shapira’s own recollections of what occurred, which were broadcast through an interview with the Israeli channel Mako as well as his brother’s social media feeds.
According to the police, Shapira became embroiled in an argument with a 23-year-old with a “pro-Palestinian attitude … In the course of the dispute, the younger man is said to have suddenly slapped the older man in the face several times, causing him to fall,” the statement claimed. It said that Shapira was taken to hospital suffering from facial fractures while the assailant was later found at his home in the Schöneberg district of the capital, where police searched his home and confiscated his cellphone. The statement made no mention of whether the accused assailant had been taken into custody.
In a social media post, however, Shahak Shapira disputed this version of events, insisting that there had been no verbal conflict before the attack.
“He was recognized by the attacker in the bar, who followed him and his companion, spoke to them aggressively and then punched him in the face unannounced,” Shahak posted on X/Twitter. In his interview with Mako, Lahav said that an Arab student had been observing him and his girlfriend in the bar and followed them outside when they left. He punched Shapira in the face and kicked him as he lay on the ground, fleeing the scene as his victim struggled to his feet.
A statement from the Free University issued on Sunday night declared: “We are deeply horrified by the brutal, allegedly antisemitic motivated attack on a Jewish student at our university and strongly condemn the crime.”
However, Shapira’s relatives accused the university of ignoring antisemitic agitation on campus. The university authorities had “supported these pro-Palestinians by simply closing their eyes,” Tzipi Lev, Shapira’s mother, told Israeli news outlets.
That point was echoed in a letter sent by Germany’s Jewish student union, the JSUD, to Free University President Günter Ziegler. The letter warned that “antisemites are spreading hatred on your campus” and urged Ziegler to “stop putting things ‘into perspective’ or denying them.”
Berlin’s Mayor, Kai Wegner, separately condemned what he described as a “vile attack.”
“Jewish people have to feel safe everywhere in Berlin – also at our universities!” Wegner posted on X/Twitter.

[Regnum] Türkiye is ready to become a peace guarantor for Palestine through its military presence in the region. Sabah newspaper wrote about this on February 4, citing sources.
What an interesting idea. And what will this Türkiyish military do beyond being present? Though it could be amusing to watch them try taking on the IDF...
“Turkey notes that it is ready to become one of the guarantors of peace on the Palestinian side with its humanitarian, political and military presence,” the article says.
It is also noted that the proposal of Turkish President Recep Tayyip Erdogan to organize an international Palestinian-Israeli peace conference, in which all effective players in the region will take part, will again be put on the agenda.
As Regnum reported, in December 2023, Erdogan said that a just world is possible only without the participation of the United States.
The man’s a sterling example of....something.
This is how he responded to the Americans blocking the UN Security Council resolution on the situation in the Gaza Strip.
On December 8, US representatives in the UN Security Council blocked a UAE resolution demanding an immediate cessation of hostilities in the Gaza Strip and the release of all hostages. The document was co-authored by 97 UN member countries. The resolution was supported by 13 delegations, the United States was against it, and representatives of Great Britain abstained. Among those who voted for the adoption of the document are Russia and China.
First Deputy Permanent Representative of the Russian Federation to the UN Dmitry Polyansky said that the United States, with its veto, sentenced thousands of residents of Palestine and Israel. December 8, he said, will be one of the darkest days in the history of the Middle East. Polyansky accused the United States of cynicism and called it accomplices in the ruthless Israeli massacre.
[HODHODYEMENNEWS.NET] The United Nations ...an idea whose time has gone... Security Council (UNSC) is set to hold an emergency meeting on the United States’ Arclight airstrike ...KABOOM!... s in Iraq and Syria that caused fatalities and considerable material damage across the Arab countries.
The emergency meeting of the Security Council to discuss the US aggression was requested by permanent member Russia and is scheduled to take place at 4:00 pm local time (2100 GMT) on Monday.
The United States claimed to have targeted more than 85 sites belonging to bully boyz affiliated with the Iranian Revolutionary Guard Forces and associated formations in Iraq and Syria.
This action was undertaken as part of retaliatory strikes for an attack against its military base in Jordan.

[HODHODYEMENNEWS.NET] A bigwig of the Paleostinian resistance movement Hamas ...the braying voice of Islamic Resistance®,... says any ceasefire deal in the 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... Strip must entail complete withdrawal of Israeli forces and lifting of the regime’s blockade of the territory.
Osama Hamdan, the movement’s representative in Leb ...an Iranian satrapy currently ruled by Hassan Nasrallah situated on the eastern Mediterranean, conveniently adjacent to Israel. Formerly inhabited by hardy Phoenecian traders, its official language is now Arabic, with the usual unpleasant side effects. The Leb civil war, between 1975 and 1990, lasted a little over 145 years and produced 120,000 fatalities. The average length of a ceasefire was measured in seconds. The Lebs maintain a precarious sectarian balance among Shiites, Sunnis, and about a dozen flavors of Christians, plus Armenians, Georgians, and who knows what else? It is the home of the original Hezbollah, which periodically starts a war with the Zionist Entity, gets Beirut pounded to rubble, and then declares victory and has a parade. The Lebs have the curious habit of periodically murdering their heads of state or prime ministers... , made the remarks at a presser in Beirut on Saturday. "You should try this hummus, it's delicious. And the baklava is to die for!"
"Since the beginning of the aggression, the movement has stated that it is open to discussing any initiatives or ideas that can stop the barbaric aggression on our people and restrain this criminal enemy that has murdered civilians, including children, women, and the elderly, and destroyed civilian infrastructure and human life in the Gaza Strip," he said.
Hamdan added that the movement has received the general framework proposal discussed at the Gay Paree Quartet meeting, adding, "The [Hamas] leadership’s discussions and consultations on are based on the premise that negotiations would lead to a total end of the terrorist aggression against our people and a complete withdrawal of the occupation army from Gaza."
He noted that Hamas also seeks lifting of the siege "that has been imposed on Gaza for 17 years, reconstruction of what the occupation has destroyed, a serious prisoner exchange deal, and practical international recognition of our people’s right to self-determination and the establishment of their fully independent state with al-Quds as its capital."
"For 120 days, this Nazi occupation [regime] has not stopped committing the most heinous crimes and massacres against unarmed civilians, mostly children, women, the elderly, and displaced people who lack the most basic human necessities, in addition to the brutal destruction of [their] homes, properties, and infrastructure," Hamdan said.
"This Nazi war will remain a testament to the brutality of the occupation and a stain on the forehead of all those involved in it, and those who falter in criminalizing and stopping it," the Hamas official added.
He also slammed the global inaction in the face of Israel’s crimes in Gaza, saying, "The crimes of genocide and ethnic cleansing are being committed in plain sight of the whole world, which stands by watching, [and] procrastinating, and [is] unable to stop the Zionist crimes that are supported by the US administration."
Hamdan reiterated that the United States "is complicit in [Israel’s crimes in Gaza] and responsible for the continued aggression against more than two million Paleostinians there."
The Hamas representative also warned about false news and reports circulated "by hostile entities about the course of the ceasefire negotiations," which he said were aimed at undermining and weakening "unity, steadfastness, and resilience" of the people of Gaza.
"The failed criminal [Israeli prime minister Benjamin] Netanyahu and his criminal bad boy warlords continue their campaign of lies and deception. They have not been and will not be able to achieve any of their aggressive objectives as failure is surrounding them at all stages of their Nazi war against our people," Hamdan said.
He asserted that at the end, Netanyahu and his criminal regime will "have no choice but to submit and comply with the terms of our people and our victorious resistance."
[PJ] House Republicans will introduce a bill this week that would give Israel $17.6 billion in military aid, more than the $14.3 billion in Israeli aid contained in the national security bill that will be considered by the Senate next week. The extra $3.3 billion is for U.S. military operations in the Middle East.
The Senate bill will also include $61 billion for Ukraine and about $15 billion for aid to Taiwan and border security.
But Speaker Mike Johnson is refusing to take up the Senate bill because Senate Democrats "have eliminated the ability for swift consideration of any legislation" because they refused to negotiate the aid package with the House and the House wlill "continue to lead" by taking up and passing a narrow package focused only on aid to Israel.
"As I have said consistently for the past three months, the House will have to work its will on these issues and our priorities will need to be addressed," Johnson wrote.
Those "priorities" don't include aid to Ukraine or changes in immigration law. Any bill that addresses those two issues will have to be passed by a majority of Democrats with some Republican backing.

House GOP Will Introduce Stand-Alone Israel Aid, Snubbing Border and Ukraine Funding Package
Eminently practical on several levels.
(a) Ukraine/Russia war (or, as I prefer, Russian Civil War) was never in USA national interest (which, IMO, is having Russia as ally against China). It always was a Globalist project, because EU elites are afraid of their own oppressed people being influenced by a bad example (plus, they've tried to conqueer Russia for a 1000 years).
(b) Border security.
(i) Closing the border now will achieve nothing - the fox IS in the henhouse. The only solution is to wait for things to become so bad that mass deportation is feasible.
(ii) For the first time in 3 generations, Pubs see a chance to get, at least some, black vote - because blacks starting to grasp that their special status is threatened by invaders.
(c) Helping Israel
(i) It is in USA national interest for Israel to win. Because WOT didn't end when you proclaimed victory and toned it down. 10/7 was inspired by American defeat in WOT.
(ii) There's a chance of getting some Jewish vote.
(d) The bill won't pass - so it costing US taxpayers nothing.

which, IMO, is having Russia as ally against China
That’s a lovely, romantic idea, but I don’t see it ever happening. Russia appears to have retained a sentimental attachment to Soviet allies and clients.
Not as much a risk as no buffer zone. Or y’all can think of it as Gazan land for Israeli peace.
[GEO.TV] Israeli forces 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... have systematically destroyed buildings in an attempt to create a buffer zone inside the Paleostinian territory, experts and rights groups told AFP, raising fears over the civilian cost.
The plan, not publicly confirmed by Israel, appears to entail taking a significant chunk of territory out of the beleaguered Gaza Strip, something experts as well as Israel's foreign allies have warned against.
Since Hamas ...not a terrorist organization, even though it kidnaps people, holds hostages, and tries to negotiate by executing them,... Death Eaters stormed across the border on October 7, Israeli forces have targeted structures in Gaza within a kilometre (0.6 miles) of the border, said Adi Ben Nun, a professor at the Hebrew University of Jerusalem who has carried out an analysis of satellite imagery.
More than 30% of all buildings in that area have been damaged or destroyed during the war, he said.
Last month, the Israeli army´s deadliest day since the ground invasion began in late October offered a glimpse of the tactics being used to clear the border area.
Israeli army chief Herzi Halevi said at the time that 21 reservists were killed "during a defensive operation in the area separating the Israeli communities from Gaza" to allow for residents' "safe return".
The troops had laid out explosives to blow up buildings when they were fired upon by krazed killers, the army said.
Displacement of Gazooks including from the border area could breach the laws of war, experts said.
"We are seeing mounting evidence that Israel appears to be rendering large parts of Gaza unlivable," said Nadia Hardman, a refugee rights expert at Human Rights Watch.
"One very clear example of that may be the buffer zone — this may amount to a war crime."
When contacted by AFP, the military declined to comment on the buffer zone.
