The media, as people knew it, have lost the narrative. They no longer have narrative control. So there are embedded power centers that are waging lawfare against people presenting certain facts. And that is a fact. And it's unfortunate to see people caught up in this. But in seeing that, the public, you know, as their example out there, the public is to see how far really America has fallen and how far we need to really climb back up to

get back to where we once were. So that's really where we start our conversation today is the narrative control of the media and how they speak to people when they're trying to get points across. And sometimes it's conflicting, sometimes it's even schizophrenic. Check out the Guardian. This is the Guardian from several years ago, but it says, want to fight climate change? Have fewer children? Carbon footprints. Well, here's that same media, the Guardian, saying this. They just said have fewer children, so you're going to have some population problems. refugee influx helps halt decline in Germany's population. Well, was there a decline in the population because they're having fewer shoulders for climate change? I don't know, but it seriously seems like some conflicting conversations. And that really brings us to the continuation of our story from last week.

We had Michael Jan on. He was fresh from the Darien Gap. That's the gap between Panama and Columbia. It's become a staging area by organizations like the United Nations to really bring this influx of, it's a free flow open border immigration into the United States and other countries over the years here too in the European Union. Governor Abbott stood up against this, 25 state governors stood with him. And as of 2023, there is reported about 2.5 million illegal immigrants have come across into the United States. So this conversation is now being openly reported by very good journalists.

And the narrative control is gone. There's a lot of people just going down to these border cross. whether it now be in San Diego or Arizona, and seeing, you know, these influx is still happening. So when Biden stood up, I'm sorry, when Abbott stood up, Biden said, I have a border bill. This is a great border bill. We're going to put it through the Senate. It says everyone needs to really pass this so we can get control of the border. This was the headline here. U.S. Senate unveils $118 billion bill on border security and aid for Ukraine. Well, if you look into the bill, it actually keeps the border open still. limits the population crossing, but you look into this and you see where this money is spent.

So at the bottom there, you see $60 billion. This is out of Reuters, by the way. $60 billion goes to Ukraine for that war. Another $14 billion goes to Israel. And then right in the middle there is about $20 billion for border security. Well, last night, something happened to that bill, and this was the headline here, Senate Republicans officially block foreign aid bill with border changes. So when it first came out, it was a border bill. Now it's a foreign aid bill. And now it's just, we need to help Ukraine. It seems like it just boiled, that just boiled away. Another thing that happened this week was there was an impeachment vote for DHS's head Alejandro Mayorkas. A lot of people have him at the center of this because, well, Homeland Security. And so that vote actually failed and it was

directly across party lines. You can see the breakdown here in this article. Blue Democrat, Red Republican. You see about four Republicans went over to the Democrat side. That was the failed impeachment and from the numbers you have 214 supported his impeachment and 216 said no way not this time yeah yeah very very close so expect that to happen again they might re-vote on that at some point here but you know it's interesting just just really quickly what i think is interesting you know whatever anyone thinks about abbott it's making the point we're making right that this was only like an issue for people on border states it was the red states the southern states they're the only those that care about the border issue.

They're really, we would hear on mainstream news, there really is no issue at all. Then Abbott started sending busloads of people to all the sanctuary cities, busloads of these migrants that are coming across, and now suddenly it's on the doorstep. Now suddenly New York can't put the kids in school because they have to put migrants in there

to keep them warm. And now suddenly the news they never saw because they were living in a propagandized world is on their doorstep. It didn't matter what CNN said anymore. Didn't matter what MSNBC said. They saw the truth. with their own eyes. This is the problem. The news is lying to you. Then you're walking around

blind. You have no idea that you have a border that is so wide open that an invasion is going on, which is what we got from Michael Yon, and I think I have to agree with him. When you look at these numbers, I think we all know that we are a nation of diversity, that we come from all over the world, but a nation without a border is not a nation at all, and we are being invaded. This is a serious problem. And we didn't know. Most of us didn't know about it because it wasn't on our doorstep and our news was lying to us. So it's a perfect example. Right. And we're seeing now with citizen journalists, we're seeing even police stations in Chicago, airports in Boston, Chicago actually becoming centers and housing centers for these

illegal immigrants. So what we're talking about here is let's go a little deeper because this immigration is not just obviously an American situation. You're seeing this all over the European Union. They're years ahead of us, actually. And we look to the United Nations, because again, they're there at the Daring Gap helping with this. The United Nations has a document. And in the past, it was actually a conspiracy theory to talk about the word replacement migration, but they actually have a document from the year 2000. It's called the United Nations Population Division Department of Economic and Social Affairs, replacement migration. And if you look in there, they're saying basically they track fertility, they track aging, because of the loss, basically of fertility,

lower fertility now happening and aging populations, they write this. The number of migrants needed to offset declines in the working age population are significantly larger than those needed to offset total population decline. Whether those larger number of migrants are within the realm of options open to governments depends on to a great extent on the social, economic, and political circumstances of the particular country or region. So you're going to need it a lot, but as long as your government lets you know if it's okay or not, it goes on to say maintaining potential support ratio, goes at current levels through replacement migration alone seems out of reach because of the extraordinary large numbers of migrants that would be required. And they go into some of the challenges,

namely this one, policies and programs relating to international migration, in particular, replacement migration and the integration of large numbers of recent migrants and their descendants. So that's one of the issues they're going to face is how do we integrate all of these people all at once? And so... I mean, just for a second, because it's bringing so much reality this, Jeffrey. You have the UN saying the way we deal with the declining population who are getting sicker and sicker by the day, unable to have children. We're telling we're teaching all the kids don't have kids if you want to save the planet from global warming. Stop having babies. So I have relatives, college students and out of college now, like I'm never going to have a baby.

There's no point bringing them into this world, as though there's some problem in the world. And while we have that deficit, we know we're all going to have serious problems. But now the answer is just open up your borders. This is what the UN's saying. the only issues is plenty of immigrants, migrants that can come in and just take care of your nations and take care of this problem. But there's this little pesky issue of your borders. So if you just opened it wide open. And so here's where you realize what I've been saying. I don't think our nation is being run from inside of our borders. It's that simple. And when you read things like this,

a UN charter, which is a globalist system, it's like, oh, that makes sense. That makes sense because nothing I'm watching on television is making any sense. Why the leader of the free world, the United States of America, wouldn't want to hold on to our sovereignty and protect our border, well, maybe he believes in the U.N. I mean, and the fact that we shouldn't have a border because we just want to have all these migrants come in and they're the ones that should be working for us. Because God knows, they're not going to drive down the value of our jobs or take a lower pay and then make us all compete at a lower level. And what jobs are going to be there for our teenagers or maybe even the elderly that can't even afford to live in this world because inflation is so high?

I mean, I know this isn't, you know, these are real problems. They're real problems right now. That conversation about replacement migration was not allowed to happen because that was a buzzword. You would be called racist. You would be called. All types of names are bringing that up. It's right there. But we look to a state, for example, like Maine.

They have a new bill. It's HP 1387. And it's literally titled an act to develop Maine's economy and strengthen its workforce by establishing an office of new Americans. This is directly. the UN's document. So read this. Section 1. It says the Office of New Americans is established within the Office of Policy Innovation and the Future for the purpose of improving the economic and civic integration of immigrants into the state's workforce and communities to strengthen the economy

over the long term. The Office of Policy Innovation and the future shall administer the Office of New Americans. So that's what's going on there. And you're seeing that in several other states as well. This isn't just a phenomenon in one state. It's a coordinated action. which is really interesting across not only, like you said, borderless, the U.S., the European Union, and other countries. And it goes even further here in the U.S., though. Here's Senator Dick Durbin, take a listen. I've been working on immigration for at least 20 years, maybe more, and I know how difficult the issue is. It's hard to explain in the United States of America, a nation of immigrants, why immigration is such a hot, controversial topic.

Virtually everyone in this country is only a generation or two removed from being an immigrant to this country. And yet, there's been resistance throughout our history unless we needed cheap labor to build the transcontinental railroad when we invited Chinese workers to come in. We treated them, unfortunately, in an inhumane fashion, and didn't give them largely eligibility to become citizens. But we needed the labor. We needed the workers. It's happened many times before. What troubles me about the debate now about the southern border is it is one half of the immigration equation. Yes, we need order at the border.

Yes, we need to have changes in the laws that reflect the reality of the overwhelming numbers from all over the world who are coming to our shores and our border. But there is also an incredible demand for legal immigration into this country even now. The presiding officer, my colleague from the state of Illinois, has legislation which addresses one aspect to that. Her bill, and I hope I describe it accurately, says that if you're an undocumented person in this country and you can pass the physical and the required test, background test, the like, you can serve in our military, and if you do it honorably, we will make you citizens of the United States. Do we need that? Do you know what the recruiting numbers are at the Army?

in the Navy and the Air Force, they can't reach their quotas each month. They can't find enough people to join our military forces. You mean, we're basically just the fact that statements like that are going out across the airwaves and basically saying, look, we are in here inside of this government, working on a way that once you've crossed over here illegally, there's many of us that want to give you a direct path to citizenship. Can you do some push-ups?

Are you healthy? You can join our military. You can be joined our, we've got an office for new Americans, you know, opening right now an estate near you. Can you imagine what our borders are going to look like if we keep talking like that? I mean, that's just, it's pure insanity. It's been documented that some of the people coming over are Russians, our Chinese military. So you're saying if you can get to this country undocumented, you're going to, we're going to throw a rifle in your hand, and you'll be able to be in the strongest force in the world, the strongest military force in the world.

It seems kind of dangerous, but I guess that's... Especially, you know, I haven't, you know, saying that, honestly, you just sparked a thought in me. When we think about, you know, this concern of a government of returning their army against you, what happens if that army isn't one of you, right? I've always thought, you know, that we've watched time and time again, whether it's Russia or China. The military oftentimes stands down in the face of protest that says, I'm not going to kill my own people. But if you start bringing in militants and putting them in your military that never lived here and aren't from here, I don't think they have that problem. I mean, that just really crossed my mind.

I hope my team isn't saying, tell. You probably shouldn't have said that. Just thinking out loud here. The military is, I mean, on that clip, they mentioned the military is having recruiting issues. Well, the last three years have seen major recruiting issues because they push the COVID-19 vaccine on the military. A lot of people aren't joining there. In fact, a lot of the recruitment say you don't have to take the shot anymore. So please, we need recruits.

So that's safer than working for Hamas or Hezbollah. Come on over and join our military.
