“LEFT JAB AND RIGHT JAB”

“Right Jab And Left Jab” was created because we have two commenters that post on a daily basis either in our “IS IT TRUE” or “Readers Forum” columns concerning National or International issues.
Joe Biden and Ronald Reagan’s comments are mostly about issues of national interest.  The majority of our “IS IT TRUE” columns are about local or state issues, so we have decided to give Mr. Biden and Mr. Reagan exclusive access to our newly created “LEFT JAB and RIGHT JAB”  column. They now have this post to exclusively discuss national or world issues that they feel passionate about.
We shall be posting the “LEFT JAB” AND “RIGHT JAB” several times a week.  Oh, “Left Jab” is a liberal view and the “Right Jab is representative of the more conservative views. Also, any reader who would like to react to the written comments of the two gentlemen is free to do so.

  3. WASHINGTON—After giving Congress two weeks to act, President Donald Trump said Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) will start deporting a “lot of people” after Independence Day.

    “After July 4th, a lot of people are going to be brought back out. So people that come up may be here for a short while, but they’re going to be back to their countries,” he said during a bill signing on the Oval Office on July 1….

  4. After Tour of Border, Hispanic Pastors Say Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez Lying About ICE Visit

    A group of Hispanic pastors say they were alarmed by the wild-eyed report about conditions at ICE facilities blurted out by New York Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez, but when they went to the border themselves they discovered that AOC was lying through her teeth about what is going on there.

    Rev. Samuel Rodriguez told Fox News he was “full of indignation” after he heard with AOC and others said about the conditions of the illegal alien detention centers near the border with Mexico.

    But what he himself saw at the very same facility AOC went to helped change his mind and made him realize that AOC and her liberal pals are lying….

    • 💣💣💣BOOM💣💣💣 Exposing the LIES for once again posting FodGather, which is “an extreme right-wing website that publishes news and opinions that always favor the right and denigrate the left” that foster propaganda and conspiracy theories (a right-wing hero to JethroBodine👨‍🌾)

      U.S. Border Patrol Council Issues “Statement” With Easily Disprovable Lies About AOC And Site Visit

      Monday some members of Congress were allowed into the El Paso detention center to see what the conditions are like for migrants after reports of unsanitary and cruel confinement for asylum seekers, many of whom are being detained separately from their children. Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez was among the visitors in an oversight trip arranged by the Congressional Hispanic Caucus. Unfortunately, only hours before her visit, she was featured in a bombshell story from ProPublica about a secret Facebook group with 9,500 Border Patrol members where some members shared vile, racist, and misogynist comments and memes, one of which was a sexist cartoon of AOC engaged in a sex act with a detained migrant.

      As news of the ProPublica exposé went viral, the National Border Patrol Council, which represents Border Patrol employees, released a statement on the “I’m 10-15” Facebook group (“10-15” Border Patrol code for “aliens in custody”) and noted that not everyone in the group is a current employee of the Border Patrol. In their effort to do damage control, they essentially said the awful comments were from a few bad apples. And then they attributed statements to AOC that she did not say, specifically that she called agents “Nazis”

      AOC and others quickly responded because she never called the agents Nazis and called it “truly nuts” the Border Patrol was “pushing easily disprovable lies about members of Congress”

      AOC joined other members of Congressional Hispanic Caucus, including Massachusetts Rep. Ayanna Pressley, Texas Rep. Joaquin Castro, California Rep. Judy Chu, Texas Rep. Veronica Escobar and Pennsylvania Rep. Madeleine Dean. Several members said they were treated poorly and/or felt threatened by Customs and Border Patrol agents inside the facility, although it was the armed agents who would later claim they “felt threatened.” Ocasio-Cortez called them on that falsehood as well.

      “And to these CBP officers saying they felt “threatened” by me, they were literally discussing making a GoFundMe for an officer who attacked my on my tour. They confiscated my phone, and they were all armed. I’m 5’4”. They’re just upset I exposed their inhumane behavior” AOC said to show their lies

      Making people drink out of toilets is inhumane. Taking people’s children and not even telling them where they’ve gone is inhumane. Some of these children will never be reunited with their parents and that is a shame we will all have to carry now.

      It is not possible to read what was happening in that group and not be horrified that these Border Patrol employees were so freely sharing these things in a large group setting.

      One member encouraged Border Patrol agents to hurl a “burrito at these bitches.” Another, apparently a patrol supervisor, wrote, “Fuck the hoes.” “There should be no photo ops for these scum buckets,” posted a third member.

      Clearly, people need to be fired. It’s time to clean house at the Border Patrol. Specifically, people at the top need to be fired because what we saw revealed in that Facebook group is a lack of leadership more than anything else. The fact that people felt so free to express such things like mocking migrant deaths and vulgar comments about female members of Congress openly tells you something about the environment overall at the U.S. Border Patrol. As the saying goes, the fish rots from the head. When you lead with ethics and moral clarity, you demand the same from those who work for you and with you. That’s what AOC is doing. That’s what everyone in government should be doing, even at the Border Patrol.

  5. Uh. JoeBiden is losing more steam. He’s flailing already, so, I’m worried about his state of mind.

    BREITBART is going out of business! Failing! Losing readers.
    More panic Joe! You’re gonna have to get 100% of your “cut and paste in haste” posts from RussiaToday!
    (instead of just 80%)

    Reason?

    Breitbart readers have no education and no teeth.
    They don’t know everything they’re reading at the site is made up crap.

    Advertisers don’t care what JoeBiden says, I guess.

  6. “It’s another step towards tyranny and abdication of the rule of law when Members of Congress urge Supreme Court decisions to be ignored”

    JethroBodine👨‍🌾 will be encouraging 💩Twittler💩 to IGNORE the Supreme Court AND the American Constitution. Yet we ALL know that if President Obama had used this method to do anything the right-wing Twittlers would have FREAKED out, which shows how racist and hypocritical they are

    GOP Congressman Urges Trump To Reject Supreme Court Ruling On Citizenship Question

    Freshman Republican Congressman Chip Roy (R-TX) urged Trump on Tuesday to ignore the Supreme Court’s decision on a controversial census citizenship question and to unilaterally order the question be included, advising him to print the survey with the question regardless of the court’s ruling

    “It’s the lawyers advising him. Trump should ignore them. Completely. Print the Census with the questions, and issue a statement explaining why” Roy tweeted referring to the Supreme Court Justices

    His suggestion that the leader of the Executive Branch defies a ruling by the Judicial Branch’s top court would require Trump to take action that’s PROHIBITED by the Constitution. Current law and the Constitution hinder a president’s ability to delay the questionnaire

    The Supreme Court struck a blow last week to the Commerce Department’s attempt to add the question, which critics argue would discourage large swaths of minorities and undocumented people from answering and lead to inaccurate results about population sizes. Among other things, the decennial census is used by states to redraw congressional districts based on populations that last a decade, potentially having nationwide political impacts, such as which party controls the House

    Chief Justice John Roberts wrote that the Commerce Department lacked justification when claiming the question would help enforce the Voting Rights. He described it as “contrived” reasoning and further said that the evidence indicated the Commerce Department made the decision to add the question before going to the Justice Department seeking legal justification

    “Accepting contrived reasons would defeat the purpose of the enterprise. If judicial review is to be more than an empty ritual, it must demand something better than the explanation offered for the action taken in this case. We do not hold that the agency decision here was substantively invalid. But agencies must pursue their goals reasonably. Reasoned decision-making under the Administrative Procedure Act calls for an explanation for agency action. What was provided here was more of a distraction”

    On Tuesday night Commerce Secretary Wilbur Ross said the administration would not be asking the citizenship question and had begun printing the survey without it, saying “I respect the Supreme Court but strongly disagree with its ruling regarding my decision to reinstate a citizenship question on the 2020 Census. The Census bureau has started the process of printing the decennial questionnaires without the question”

    It’s still an open question as to whether or not the Trump administration will actually follow the Supreme Court’s ruling, since it has no real means of enforcing its rulings other than a long-standing norm which, as we know from Trump’s continuous ethical violations, this administration is not particularly fond of. This is a point made by Alexander Hamilton in the Federalist papers:

    “The judiciary has no influence over either the sword or the purse, no direction either of the strength or of the wealth of the society, and can take no active resolution whatever. It must ultimately depend upon the aid of the executive arm even for the efficacy of its judgments”

    • You mean like Jefferson and Jackson ignored the Supreme Court? Your last paragraph says it all.
