“You know, when it is 110 degrees outside, your body has to work overtime to cool itself off,” Secretary Alejandro Mayorkas of the Department of Homeland Security began his address to the ‘Extreme Heat Summit’.
With 8,000 attempted invasions by illegal aliens a day and even major cities like New York, Los Angeles and Chicago drowning under the tide of invaders, Mayorkas and DHS took a break to talk about the weather rather than the 2.4 million illegal alien apprehensions in 2022.
“110 degrees is not a nice day at the beach,” Mayorkas pontificated. “Extreme heat is no longer a looming threat in a climate change-driven future. It is an urgent, dangerous, and deadly problem in our country.”
Extreme heat, also known as summer, is normal in states like Florida, Texas and Arizona where Mayorkas ominously warned the population was on the verge of death due to global warming.
The biggest threat to Texas and Arizona isn’t coming from a summer heat wave, but a mass invasion of illegals flooding across the border. Every effort that Texas and Arizona have made to slow down the invasion has been undermined by Mayorkas and his boss who sued Arizona for putting up a wall of shipping containers and Texas for putting barriers on the Rio Grande. While Mayorkas talks about the dangerous weather in Phoenix, Tuscon Sector hit a 15-year high in invaders. Under DHS orders, the invaders have been bused into Phoenix and into small rural towns that have no way to accommodate the tide of illegal aliens being dumped on them.
DHS claims it can’t stop illegal aliens from crossing the border, yet it claims to be able to change the weather. It can stop the illegal aliens, it’s choosing not to, but it can’t change the weather. Not even if it holds ‘Extreme Heat Summits’ every day of the week for a thousand years.
The Department of Homeland Security and Secretary Mayorkas are trading a problem that is their responsibility and that they can solve for a problem that isn’t and that they can’t solve.
The DHS ‘virtual summit’ on ‘extreme heat’ was perfectly timed for the end of summer, and packaged with a “first-of-its-kind resource guide” full of useless suggestions for public officials like appointing a ‘Chief Heat Officer’ to watch the thermometer and sending out ‘Code Red’ alerts warning everyone it’s really hot outside and that they should turn on the air conditioning.
That is not what cities actually want from DHS. Elected officials in New York have begged DHS to do something about the illegal aliens overrunning their cities. Instead, DHS is telling them to turn on the air conditioning in libraries and rename them “resiliency hubs”. This is an idea that no local government could have come up with on its own without DHS’ $100 billion budget.
Meanwhile, illegal border crossings had shot up 30% in July. Around 200 invaders on terrorist watch lists were found and at least one of them was released. An ISIS-linked smuggler was found to have aided Uzbeks in entering the United States. The Uzbeks, coming from a country with one of the highest numbers of ISIS fighters, were released “pending court appearances”. And currently court dates are running from 2032 to 2035 so that may be quite a while away.
The Department of Homeland Security had been formed as a response to 9/11. In the words of the Homeland Security Act, its mission is to “(1) prevent terrorist attacks within the United States; (2) reduce the vulnerability of the United States to terrorism; (3) minimize the damage, and assist in the recovery, from terrorist attacks that occur within the United States”.
The Homeland Security Act does not mention that it’s the role of DHS to police the weather.
So what is DHS currently doing? It’s “addressing climate change” and “uniting for Ukraine”. The last National Terrorism Advisory System Bulletin, much of its reason for existence, was last issued in May 2023. Instead DHS has a blog on “breastfeeding and returning to your workplace” and ‘Risk’ assessments for global warming for areas around the nation.
While Fentanyl is flooding the country, DHS is focused on keeping “illegal HFCs” which provide for better refrigeration out of the country lest someone be able to actually stay cool the way they used to in 1991. Despite ongoing Islamic terrorist plots, including an attempted massacre by a Syrian immigrant in North Dakota, DHS is instead running a “Russia-Ukraine Domestic Preparedness Group” for someone else’s war that is happening 5,000 miles away.
DHS is switching to electric cars, enlisting black colleges to fight global warming and chasing every woke agenda that isn’t its job instead doing the thing that it had been created to do.
“Keeping Americans safe is the highest priority of the entire Biden-Harris Administration, and it is our founding mission here at the Department of Homeland Security. Mitigating the impacts of extreme heat will require all of us, at every level of government, to work together,” Secretary Mayorkas told the heat summit.
Mayorkas claimed that 700 people in this country die every year due to the heat. When asked in Congress how many Americans are killed each year by illegal aliens, however he could not answer the question. And that is because Mayorkas, like Biden, doesn’t care. Heatstroke somehow became the business of DHS, but foreigners invading and killing Americans isn’t.
Keeping Americans high is such a priority that Mayorkas doesn’t even know how many crimes have been committed by the stream of military-age men he is allowing to invade our country.
In April, Francisco Oropeza, an illegal alien who had been deported 4 times, murdered five people, but Mayrokas would rather talk about the weather in Texas than the illegals.
The founding mission of DHS was not the vague one of “keeping Americans safe”, but fighting terrorism. The DHS May bulletin, the last one in months, mentioned mass shootings, while only vaguely referencing an Islamic terror attack in Times Square which it defined as “inspired by a variety of foreign terrorist content” while failing to mention other Islamic terror plots.
DHS not only abandoned that mission, it actively collaborates with the enemy, including holding meetings with CAIR: an unindicted co-conspirator in funding Islamic terrorists, even while it classifies pro-life mothers in rural America as dangerous “domestic extremists”.
When it comes to border security, DHS does the same thing, handing out $77 million to resettle the invaders inside the United States instead of securing the border against them. DHS is not keeping us safe, it’s endangering us, and when it’s not working with Islamic terrorists or moving illegal invaders into the country, it’s lecturing us on global warming.
In July, House Republicans began building an impeachment case against Secretary Mayorkas for “a reckless abandonment of border security and immigration enforcement, at the expense of the Constitution and the security of the United States”.
If they go through with it, Mayorkas will find out what real heat feels like.
Fighting Climate Change is like Don Quixote tilting at windmills.
SPOT ON!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
This administration has no clue
Don’t be fooled, they know exactly what they’re doing, they are destroying our country.
And, laughing while they are doing it!
Naw, they’re just lying.
Or King Canute and the waves
Funny thing too is that his skinny, rib showing steed, Rocinante, grew tired and the knight lost his battle. He, like the leftists today, suffered being delusional.
It’s even dumber.
At least windmills are real. There are a lot of those tall white ones outside Palm Springs. I don’t know about the Dutch wooden ones but they seem cute.
It'[s only 77 degrees here in San Jose right now. Not exactly hot. And Global climate warming change, my ass. Summer lasts till September 23d here in the Northern hemisphere so I’d say 77 is pretty mild.
It hit 114 degrees in Fresno today but where I grew up, Riverside CA, it got hotter than that EVERY September, and we didn’t bitch and moan that the globe was warming. We just sweated it out. Hell, it’s that hot at 5: AM in Palm Springs, and Bullhead City and Lake Havasu reach 125 every Summer. And don’t get me started on Death Valley. People actually do die of heat stroke there. Some actor from “Game of Thrones” died there not too long ago. Stupid Limey thought he could tramp around in the world’s hottest desert alone. I bet he didn’t even have any water. I feel bad for the guy, though.
130 degrees, are you kidding me? That’s hot.
But I notice the world isn’t getting any hotter. Deserts are hot and arid.. That’s why they’re deserts.
Twenty six years and average global temperature hasn’t deviated by a single degree fahrenheit. 1997 was a hot year but long before and long after the temperature hasn’t deviated since the early 1930s.
True, for sure.
Global Warming is a real scam pushed by the left who want more control over we pilgrims.
“Pilgrims.” Good one!
Thanks Jeff. I read about that guy who went hiking in 110 degrees or whatever, and thought, that is really crazy. I did make it half a mile to the grocery store in 110 f heat once, but that was when I was in better shape. Now I would probably pass out from heat stroke 🙂
Bring some water, buddy! We’re too old to try and be tough guys. Every time I get into a fight I think, this might be my last one. This asshole is going to kill me.
I take water with me every time I hike because I’m not a complete idiot but I also take vodka so I guess I am a partial idiot. Alcohol is a diuretic like coffee, you know. I once passed out right in the weeds on the side of a trail; Right in the hot Summer sun. A lake was next to me but the water didn’t cool me off where I lay. Some other hikers encountered me and I instinctively woke up. Boy, was that embarrassing. They must’ve known I was drunk off my ass.
The Netflix Homeland Security series sums it all up, starts interestingly with the fight against Islamic terror and ends up garbage woke junk.
Seems like it was accurate.
That image is a typical government official too, incompetent at anything other than spending money and complaining how hard it is to spend.
Seems to be the same trajectory as 24.
Everything put out of the industry becomes woke garbage in the end because personnel is policy.
Same thing goes for the media and the government.
Conservative leadership doesn’t compensate for operating in leftist industries.
Yeah, thanks for your reply.
I worked with the UNDP and MineOPS for a while, UNDP Development Programs, measure success by how much money they spend, the more they spend the more successful they are. I tried to get them to agree to a system that demonstrated the link between the improvements to poverty stricken peoples lives and the spending they did, but it also illustrated very visibly how the outcome depends on the input, their favourite consultant didn’t like that so it was bye bye me!
That’s bureaucracy.
All of these systems seek to expand and maximize their budget.
That means making sure that no problems ever get solved.
Or they will lose their reason for existence. The same thing also applies to the left.
DHS is the type of government that our founding fathers warned us about. The traitors in the feral government need to water the tree of liberty along with the 600+ alphabet agencies
The feral government literally has two functions and only two. International negotiations and defense of the United States. Every other function violates the constitution. The feral government is an absolute failure in both duties and must be removed
For a long time, I have felt every federal representative elected to Congress violates the oath of office from day one. Of all people they should know the bounds of federal authority laid out in the Constitution yet they continue to create and fund all manner of laws, agencies and programs in violation of those guidelines. Hoping to correct the problem through elections is like assigning which wolf we want to guard the chicken house.
Couldn’t help but notice in the photo of Mayorkas that he is wearing what appears to be an American flag on his lapel….would somebody have it removed (or at least turned upside down ..sign of distress)…he doesn’t deserve to display our precious symbol of freedom !!
Wolves have to dress like sheep
Traitors have to wear flag pins
Yeah, for sure.
Mayorkas is yet another wealthy elite from Silicon Valley full of lies and hell bent on fundamentally changing this Nation. He deserves the same treatment the Italians gave Benito Mussolini in WW2, imv.
He deserves to have it pinned to one of his eyeballs.
He’s just a symptom of a deranged administration and political party that operate on the basis of fact free narratives. I live in the D.C. area. It is experiencing a heatwave that may break records set in the late 1800s (i.e., before SUVs, air conditioning, air travel, and almost all the other villains of the climatist cult).
Washington DC used to be uninhabitable before air conditioning.
I wouldn’t inhabit DC even now. Hell may be hotter but I doubt it’s a worse place to live.
Thanks, Dubya. As always, the answer to government failure is more government. You ran as a responsible Republican, not as a Uniparty tool Now you get to live in a bubble of Secret Service protection and sycophantic approval, while the republic you supposedly led for eight years teeters on the brink of extinction.
The evil Cuban and Biden should be charged for aiding and abetting illegals, accessory to murder and human trafficking as well as crimes against humanity. Every state that has citizens murdered by these evil people should form a grand jury and bring multiple charges against them.
They should be charged with TREASON!!!
Some security protect us Form a totally fake threat of global Warming/Climate Change while leaving the gate open we might as well set out Welcome Mats to them the DHS is totally worthless
I’m so so SO tired of seeing this lizards face. I really try hard to avoid saying I hate anyone but I truly HATE that dude.
Feel my pain. I have to sit through hours of videos of him.
Thank you, sir, for enduring the headaches and eye pain that must give you.
For my part, i have difficulty even looking at several members of the current (corrupt) Administration. Not the least of whom is the chief grifter creep himself. 17 months more to reach freedom. Yeehaw!
“Lizard.” LOL! That’s exactly what he looks like. A bald lizard.
Of all the incompetents in the Biden “administration”, this monkeyfaced jerk heads the list.
We need to do away with the DHS as it is totally ineffective as it is run by folks who hate America.
“The biggest threat to Texas and Arizona isn’t coming from a summer heat wave, but a mass invasion of illegals flooding across the border.”
There it is. You have it exactly backwards. And you better start paying attention to the effects of summer heat waves. They’re only going to get worse. (and you know it too, you amoral lying bastard)
Are you really so fucking stupid? Global temperature hasn’t increased for 26 years, and Winter cold kills FAR more people than Summer heat.
How hot is where you’re at now? 70 0r 75? You stupid lying asshole. What is it with you leftists? Why are you incapable of honesty?
Biden once spoke of being a strict enforcer of immigration laws. Now he essentially supports open borders, which greatly harm blacks and other minorities along with all U.S. citizens…Joe Biden once spoke about jailing employers who hire “illegals,” said sanctuary cities shouldn’t be allowed to violate federal law, and argued a fence was needed stop “tons” of drugs coming into the country from “corrupt Mexico. JACK HELLNER
The Biden administration has largely ignored efforts to get native-born Americans back into the workforce, instead adding millions of foreign workers to the labor market which adds downward pressure, particularly for working-class Americans in terms of finding jobs and securing higher wages. JOHN BINDER
Sen. Tom Cotton (R-AR), on Thursday, slammed Biden’s plan to open Obamacare and Medicaid rolls to illegal aliens, calling it “an insult to American citizenship.”
“Rewarding illegal immigration will bring more illegal immigration,” Cotton said.
I recall that DHS was formed post-9/11 to more effectively secure America from terrorism at home. It was granted the powers of warrantless searches, freezing of assets, confiscation of property, among other things if one was SUSPECTED of wrongdoing. Now it wants to protect us from climate change, as opposed to unabated Fentanyl trafficking, child sex trafficking, ISIS members and military-age Chicoms crossing our borders. There is only one outcome, the ultimate destruction of this great nation. I can see only one solution to this, but I dare not mention it because I don’t want to get shot by the FBI.
Watch utube and rumble channel realanthonyaguero to watch live video of the criminal invasion of America at the border.
While the Huns pour in the top guards worry about a heatwave that will never happen
“DHS is switching to electric cars,…” Good start, Mayorkas should get his first. Since, “Mitigating the impacts of extreme heat will require all of us, at every level of government, to work together,” at every level of government the AC should be set at 80F in the summer, and the heat set at 60F in the winter. And since the head of the library association is a AGW hoax marxist, there’s no reason libraries shouldn’t have the same settings.
