Rep. Scalise Calls Out DOJ for Concealing Details of Unprecedented Mar-a-Lago Raid from Public

Published

House Republican Whip Steve Scalise (R-La.) joined Fox Business Network’s Mornings with Maria to discuss the FBI’s unprecedented raid on Mar-a-Lago. Whip Scalise slammed the Department of Justice for fighting to conceal what led to the raid of President Trump’s home and criticized Democrats for persecuting President Trump since the day he announced that he was running for president. In addition, Whip Scalise highlighted the dangerous and expensive provisions in Democrats’ radical tax-and-spending spree, like adding 87,000 IRS agents to snoop on law-abiding citizens’ bank accounts of families making less than $400,000, which breaks President Biden’s promise that he made during the 2020 campaign.

As for the Biden Administration’s Department of Justice’s great attempts to keep information about the Mar-a-Lago raid from the American people, Scalise said this:

“Hopefully, that is soon that we see [the Mar-a-Lago affidavit]. And keep in mind, we’ve been seeing leaks over and over – just very selective leaks coming out of [the Department of] Justice – over parts of this document.

“So, you know, if they can leak some of it, why not let the public see all of it? They have no problem giving The New York Times or The Washington Post very selected pieces of it. Let’s see the whole thing.

“I mean, this was an unprecedented action that was taken. If it was justified as they’re claiming they should want it to be out there in the public domain, yet they’re still fighting to keep it private. That should tell you something right there.”

Scalise also discussed the persecution of federal agencies on former President Trump since the beginning of his candidacy:

“The same pattern [of government officials conspiring to smear President Trump.] We saw that pattern over and over really since Donald Trump started running for president. You’ve seen this attack by some people that just want to undermine him. They still do. They’re still threatened by him.

“You know, most Americans are looking at this saying they want justice to be blind. And if his last name was ‘Smith’ or ‘Clinton,’ he surely wouldn’t have faced that same outcome at Mar-a-Lago.”

New House Judiciary Report: Biden-Harris Funneled Taxpayer Money to UN to Support Open-Border

Published

on

A new report released just before the weekend details how the Biden-Harris administration funneled millions in taxpayer dollars to the United Nations to support their open-border initiatives.

The House Judiciary Committee’s GOP members released the 12-page report Friday, titled “Inside the Biden-Harris Administration’s Open-borders Alliance with United Nations Bureaucrats”.  The report shows how there have been an estimated 5.8 million illegal aliens released into the U.S. since January 2021, with an additional 1.9 million illegal aliens deemed as “gotaways.”

“The images of mass illegal immigration and chaos at the southwest border became a political liability for President Biden and Vice President Harris. But rather than fix the actual problem of illegal immigration, the Biden-Harris administration engaged in misdirection – teaming up with open-borders bureaucrats at the United Nations to allow aliens to bypass the southwest border altogether,” the report states in its executive summary.

Approximately $67.1 million of U.S. taxpayer dollars was spent by the United Nations High Commissioner for Refugees (UNHCR) to fund the Safe Mobility Offices (SMOs), with the International Organization for Migration (IOM) spending another $14.6 million in taxpayer funds for the initiative, equating to over $80 million in total.

The report goes on to note the State Department announced the Safe Mobility Initiative in June 2023, a plan to allow illegal aliens to “sidestep” the southern border. It was implemented under the direction of the Biden-Harris administration.

TheUNHCR reportedly said the initiative would let migrants “avoid the risks associated with onward movement,” meaning undocumented migrants were swiftly moved from the southern border and into the interior of the U.S. to avoid the “damaging optics at the border.”

The initiative further enables aliens outside of the U.S. to consult with foreign nationals working for the UNHCR, and the International Organization for Migration. These organizations facilitate illegal migrants to resettle in the U.S. through various means, including labor pathways and family reunification.

According to the report, the Safe Mobility Offices are located throughout Guatemala, Costa Rica, Colombia, and Ecuador and are all paid for with taxpayer money. The committee estimates under the Biden-Harris administration, more than 18,000 aliens from Central and South America have resettled in the U.S. through the initiative.
