Border Security: Which deceitful Mark Kelly do we believe?

Vote Trump-endorsed Blake Masters for AZ Senate

The NRSC (National Republican Senatorial Committee) is the only national organization solely devoted to strengthening the Republican Senate majority and electing Republicans to the U.S. Senate. It provides invaluable support and assistance to current and prospective Republican U.S. Senate candidates in the areas of budget planning, election law compliance, fundraising, and communications tools, including messaging, research and strategy. Elections to the U.S. Senate will be held on November 8, 2022, and 34 of the 100 6-year seats are up for regular election.

NRSC recently launched two ads exposing deceptive Arizona Sen. Mark Kelly. This one is titled, AZ: Soft. Another, Suave, is a Spanish language video. Ballotpedia has a “hoverable” interactive map loaded with pertinent information.

When Joe Biden issued this “Proclamation on the Termination Of Emergency With Respect To The Southern Border Of The United States And Redirection Of Funds Diverted To Border Wall Construction,“ in 2021, Mark Kelly was silent. Kelly continues to ignore the ever-worsening border crisis.

The Biden administration’s open borders and amnesty agenda makes our country and the communities near our southern border less safe. Sen. Mark Kelly has consistently voted in Washington to fuel the border crisis, turning Arizona into a sanctuary state. Waiting for Kelly to begin fighting to protect Arizona families is a fool’s errand.  Deceitful Kelly is exposed as conveniently forgetting that he voted along with ALL of his Senate democrat colleagues against an amendment intended to keep Title 42 in place.

Earlier this year, the Arizona Sheriff’s Association sent this letter to Arizona Sens. Mark Kelly and Kyrsten Sinema, imploring them to “take action and not wait another day to address the border crisis in our home state.” The Sheriffs declared it was “negligent to let another day, week, month, or year pass without Arizona’s U.S. Senators leading on a solution to solve the revolving door border policy that negatively affects our state.”

The dedicated law enforcement officials obviously forgot who they were writing to.

Check out Blake Master’s website.  He vows to secure the border and end illegal immigration; stop the Biden crime wave, and focus on an America First: Strong and Smart National Defense. What a welcome change from radical Soros‘ Act Blue-supported Kelly (for verification, scroll down to the end of this solicitation) who has longstanding business ties with Communist China. Though a gun owner himself, Kelly is also a Second Amendment restrictionist for the rest of us. Giffords PAC is named for his wife Gabby Giffords, a former Arizona U.S. Rep. who was shot at a campaign event where 12 others were wounded and six killed, including Federal Judge John Roll.

AZ newspaper foolishly hammers use of inmate labor

A felony is committed. With diligent police work, the perpetrator is located and arrested. Next, evidence is presented as the defendant is tried, found guilty and sentenced to prison time.  It‘s an unfortunate scenario, repeated with increasing regularity across the United States, as leftist elected DA’s have implemented catch and release policies, if they impose any penalties at all. Law Enforcement Today acknowledges the steep rise in crime in 2022 as police departments are defunded.

Arizona’s dying leftist newspaper has printed a weeklong series of articles bemoaning the fact that incarcerated prisoners are being “exploited” as outside laborers. Presumably the lunatics/editors running the asylum/newspaper would prefer the inmates stay in their cells around the clock. The reports focus on the inmates doing manual labor rather than office work and instead of building their resumes, as they provide labor to cities and towns, which the four reporters who collaborated on a recent report, view as allowing towns to “live beyond their means” since the criminals are paid low wages. Taxpayers provide inmates lodging, food, clothing, soap, shampoo, toothpaste and the system the newspaper berates allows them to be out of the prison complex, where juries sent them for crimes they inflicted on innocent citizens. A stand-alone blurb states, “Using cheap prison labor keep maintenance costs low in this Cochise County city of 3,213. But what about the inmates’ needs?”

Seriously!

The inmates lost their right to freedom when they chose to engage in lives of crime. The likelihood of these criminals desiring to stay in their cells is remote. Reporters Joseph Darius Jaafari, Jimmy Jenkins, Justin Price and Geoff Hing earn their salaries writing drivel. 

But it doesn’t stop there. The newspaper is actually recruiting people who have been incarcerated to relate their “experiences and opinions” for future exposés. SRAZ has chosen to omit the absurd link. Instead we direct our readers to the far more reputable New York Post‘s report by Isabel Vincent, “How George Soros funded progressive ‘legal arsonist’ DAs behind US crime surge.“ It reveals the funding the multi-billionaire socialist has been infusing into undermining prosecutor’s and law enforcement agencies throughout the nation for years. We urge you to read it. Knowledge is power.

Trump, Pence duke it out on AZ Guv’s race

Status of endorsers outranks candidates

Former President Donald Trump and his former Vice President Mike Pence have staked out Arizona’s Republican governor’s primary election as a battleground both for their own chosen candidates but with more than a whiff of personal competitiveness in the air. They are both considered 2024 presidential candidates.

On Friday evening Trump spoke in Prescott Valley supporting former newscaster Kari Lake as Pence addressed a crowd in Peoria, AZ declaring, “No one worked harder for the Trump/Pence ticket in 2016 and 2020 than Karrin Taylor Robson,” as he highlighted her fundraising for the GOP ticket.

There’s as much at stake for the endorsers as the candidates as Pence hopes to score another win against Trump in the endorsement category. In an unexpected 2022 drubbing, Pence supported Georgia Gov. Brian Kemp, who made quick work (73.7% – 21.8%) of Trump-supported challenger, former Sen. David Perdue in the May 24, 2022 primary.

Lake, a former Obama donor and supporter, who twice left the Republican Party to become a democrat, has magically morphed into a conservative in time to run for governor, a job for which she has neither background nor capabilities. Karrin Kunasek Taylor Robson characterizes herself as a political outsider, though her family is enmeshed in Arizona politics.  Former Congressman Matt Salmon recently dropped out of the race.

Pence and Taylor Robson also visited the National Border Patrol Council’s office in Tucson. The Border Patrol union has previously supported Trump. Brandon Judd, president of the National Border Patrol Council has endorsed Taylor Robson in the governor’s race.

San Francisco DA dumped, blames everything but his lax policies

Intolerably rising crime rates proved to be his undoing

San Francisco District Attorney Chesa Boudin, whose lenient policies led to his defeat in a recall election, claimed he was taken out by voters due economic hardship brought on by the pandemic — slickly glossing over the realities of the city’s staggering crime rate.  He also blamed conservatives. Leftist NBC called this disconnected prosecutor a “reformist.”

“People are angry, they’re frustrated, and I want to be very clear about what happened, he said as the votes came in. The right-wing billionaires outspent us three to one, they exploited an environment in which people are appropriately upset, and they created an electoral dynamic where we were literally shadowboxing,” Boudin whined. “Voters were not given an opportunity to choose between criminal justice reform and something else. They were given an opportunity to voice their frustrations and their outrage and they took that opportunity.”

Using the royal “we,” to obscure his responsibility, Boudin said of his tenure in office, “We’ve made mistakes,” without specifying what those mistakes are. The California Globe was far more forthright, describing how criminals have become more brazen under his ‘decarceration’ policies. Be sure to read the complete report.

Boudin must vacate office no later than 10 days after Tuesday’s election is certified. At that point, a successor chosen by democrat Mayor London Breed will assume office. Play that out to its likely conclusion. Under her administration thieves who steal less than $950 worth of merchandise are no longer jailed.

Los Angeles District Attorney George Gascon should be feeling the heat, since his policies mirror Boudin’s. Crime is on the rise as felonies go unpunished under the guise of “criminal justice reform.” Arizonan’s are well acquainted with Gascon’s radical policies when he was when he was Mesa‘s Police Chief.

And Chesa Boudin? His background is steeped in radicalism. His parents were members of the Weather Underground terrorist group. When they were incarcerated, with long prison terms, young Boudin was raised by their cohorts.

The Heritage Foundation recently ran this exposé, “Rogue Prosecutors Gascon and Boudin Panicking Over Recall Elections.”

Nancy Pelosi’s husband’s DUI arrest not worthy of coverage

With husband Paul’s arrest for DUI, what we’ve all known is officially confirmed: House Speaker Nancy Pelosi is capable of driving anyone to drink.

The official Napa County public booking report can be seen here, Businessman Paul Pelosi was arrested on Saturday night at 11:44 p.m. and was booked into jail at 4:13 a.m. before being released at 7:26 a.m.  He was required to post bail in the amount of $5,000. The 82-year-old’s booking number is 202200900. According to reports, he could face charges including driving under the influence and driving with a blood alcohol content level of 0.08 or higher after being involved in a traffic accident while driving his 2021 Porsche.

Nancy Pelosi’s spokesman issued a statement stating, “The Speaker will not be commenting on this private matter which occurred while she was on the East Coast.”

True to form, the leftist media lunged — not on Paul Pelosi, but on conservatives. Newsweek ran this absurd headline: “MAGA Republicans Pounce After Nancy Pelosi’s Husband Arrested for DUI.” Imagine the headlines if the drunk was Melania Trump or one of the former president’s adult children. It’s a certainly the blame would not be placed on democrats.

This double standard is clear evidence of the bias that drives the lame stream media. The Arizona Republic ignored the arrest, which never would have happened if it occurred during a Republican adminstration. Since when did DUI’s resulting in an accident become a “private matter?

Obama mourns dead children, teachers…and career criminal George Floyd

Barack Obama expresses regret over the nineteen innocent young victims and two teachers viciously slaughtered by the mass murderer who entered their second, third and fourth grade classrooms in Uvalde, Texas on May 24. But he doesn’t want them to divert attention away from the second anniversary of the “murder of George Floyd under the knee of a police officer.”  Floyd, repeatedly incarcerated, had recently been released from a Texas prison for breaking into the home of a pregnant woman, holding a rifle to her stomach as he demanded drugs which she didn’t possess — when he was apprehended in Minneapolis attempting to pass a counterfeit $20 bill in a convenience market and fought being rearrested.

Floyd’s full autopsy report showing his long term physical ill health and evidence that he had enough opioids in his system to lay an elephant low, can be viewed here.  Click on the pages to turn them.

As we grieve the children of Uvalde today, we should take time to recognize that two years have passed since the murder of George Floyd under the knee of a police officer. His killing stays with us all to this day, especially those who loved him.

— Barack Obama (@BarackObama) May 25, 2022

Dutifully following his mentor Obama, Slo Joe Biden marked the anniversary of Floyd’s death by signing a restrictive and extraordinary lengthy executive order enacting numerous hand-tying “police reforms,” bearing the unwieldy title, ‘Executive Order on Advancing Effective, Accountable Policing and Criminal Justice Practices to Enhance Public Trust and Public Safety.’ Floyd’s now wealthy family members were invited guests in attendance at the White House signing.

Democrats have a skewed perspective that honors criminal perpetrators and rewards their families, while giving victims and their survivors a box of tissues to dry their tears. And America’s dedicated law endorsement personnel? They are the recipients of restrictive reforms emanating from the inner sanctum of the White House and signed by the shaky hand of disoriented Joe Biden.

AZ Republic editorial irresponsibly claims GOP responsible for gun violence

Popular Fox News host Tucker Carlson also gets whacked

Few Arizonans subscribe to the failing local newspaper, whose numbers have only worsened since this linked Nov. 25, 2019 Phoenix Business Journal report.

The Hillary-endorsing, radically-leftist newspaper, whose executive editor, Greg Burton pledged his commitment to ratios, ethnicity, skin pigmentation and whether we sit or stand in the bathroom — traits which are beyond our control — as his criteria for newsroom diversity hiring quotas.

None of these bizarre machinations have lifted the dying newspaper out of its dire condition. In fact, it has worsened as exemplified by today’s editorial titled, “Shootings spotlight tragic gun failures,” which irresponsibly blames Republicans for gun violence. We are not linking to the tripe.

The Arizona Republic, which functions as nothing more than an arm of the democrat Party, has also previously run “an analysis” stating most Phoenix police shootings occur in “poorer, minority neighborhoods.”

Police respond to crime scenes…they do not select them by zip codes. They are too frequently the victims of violence themselves in the course of their duty.

Radical leftist L.A. District Attorney George Gascon facing recall

Arizonans will not soon forget notorious George Gascon, the Cuban-born, former Mesa Police Chief with a token law degree, who advocated limp enforcement policies for illegals. In 2009, he left Mesa for San Francisco where he was appointed police chief.

Within less than a year-and-a half, then-Mayor Gavin Newsom selected Gascon as the interim District Attorney when Kamala Harris — yes, that one — was elected Attorney General. Despite never trying a case, let alone prosecuting any, Gascon’s statement on his lack of qualification to be the District Attorney was telling. He said, “Running a D.A.’s office is not the same as prosecuting cases on the floor. They’re different skill sets. I believe I have the organizational skills, and I have an understanding of the criminal justice system not only today, but where we need to be in the future.”

Gascon’s vision of the future is lowering the standards for prosecution — allowing more criminals to go free — and giving free rein to illegal aliens entering the United States.

Finally, Californians have had their fill of laxity as brazen smash-and-grab thefts routinely occur everywhere from upscale department and jewelry stores to neighborhood Walgreen’s, causing many of the pharmacies to close. The Police Tribune reports homicide rates have skyrocketed 94 percent In Los Angeles County.

Breitbart News’ Joel B. Pollak, Senior Editor-at-Large, reports the campaign to Recall Soros-backed George Gascon has 400,000 Signatures, more than two-thirds the number necessary, That fact provides hope that even Californians have had their fill of the man known as “Gascan” while in Arizona.

Seeing Red AZ has frequently written exposed him. This is a sampling:

June 25, 2009: Sanctuary City San Francisco: A perfect fit for George Gascon

Oct. 11, 2020: Amiable bedfellows: Kamala Harris, George Gascon…George Soros

Dec. 9, 2020:  LA D.A. George Gascon honed radical leftist career in Mesa, AZ

Dec 31, 2020: L.A. County prosecutors rebel against DA George Gascon

June 5,. 2021: L.A. D.A. George Gascon protects criminals, disregards law abiding citizens

Nov.13, 2021: LA DA George Gascon releases murderer after only 6 yrs. of 50 yr. sentence

Dec.11, 2018: Fmr Mesa Police Chief George Gascon: Arrogance personified

To qualify for the ballot, a total of 566,857 signatures, or 10 percent of total Los Angeles County registered voters, must be submitted to the LA County Registrar-Recorder/County Clerk’s Office by July 6.

On February 22, 2022, the LA Association of Deputy District Attorneys took a vote on whether to support the recall. A total of 83.3% of the prosecutors voted, and 97.9% of them supported the recall.

Secret Service agents bribery scheme invades Biden admin.

When the president is barely cognizant and the VP is out of her league, scene is set for corruption

Today we take our readers directly to Real Clear Politics and an in-depth report headlined, “Biden Detailee Entangled in Secret Service Bribery Scheme.” 

The author is Susan Crabtree, with credentials galore…including spending five years as a White House Correspondent for the Washington Examiner and senior writer for the Washington Free Beacon. Prior stints include seven years as a senior editor and investigative reporter for The Hill. She is now the national political correspondent for Real Clear Politics.

Knowledge is power. If you read nothing else today, you’ll want to read this alarming report.

To no one’s surprise, the radically leftwing Arizona Republic didn’t find this worthy of coverage.

Biden’s open border: News the pro-illegal AZ Republic hides

U.S. Customs and Border Protection reported 153,941 “illegal encounters” in the month of January

The New York Post, a newspaper nearly 3,000 miles away from Arizona, has consistently provided the facts on the indefensible, worsening crisis on America’s southern border.

Reuters recently reported over 10,000 individuals — mostly Haitians, but also Cubans, Nicaraguans and Venezuelans — had set up a camp underneath the Del Rio International Bridge in Ciudad Acuna, Mexico, across the border from Del Rio, Texas.

In a new report, Fox News, citing court documents, revealed illegal alien encounters on the southern border increased in January, almost double the numbers from 2021.

Biden’s pro-amnesty and weak border security policies have created a surge in previously deported criminals and COVID-positive illegals unlawfully entering the United States. Yet these people are being resettled — flown and bused to locations throughout the United States — while American citizens are under unrelenting pressure to get vaccinated, or risk losing their jobs. Our children must be masked despite scientific evidence of the negative effects, as reported by Vinay Prasad, MD. in his “The Cult of Masked Schoolchildren.”

This graph provided by U.S. Customs and Border Protection shows the spiraling numbers of “border encounters,” a euphemism for illegal alien invaders, yet VP Kamala Harris, Biden’s appointed border czarina has done nothing to stem the tide. No longer limited to Mexicans and Central Americans, illegal invaders are now crossing our border from as far away as Africa, according to Pew Research Center. This Biden double-talk known as the “U.S. Citizenship Act” on opening our border was his first-day-in-office priority.

Arizona’s Pinal County Sheriff Mark Lamb, founder of “Protect America Now,” is sounding the alarm on this crisis, noting in the linked video that apprehensions at the border have hit a 20-year high. The number of illegals getting through have no respect for American laws or sovereignty.

Law Enforcement Today headlined its exposé, “Report: Biden using funds for health testing to disperse illegal immigrants across United States.“

Thanks to Biden and his fellow democrats, American taxpayers are funding the loss of our country.
