The news media (especially left-leaning) would like to take all focus off of the wins that have come out of the Trump Administration these past seven months.

Why, on Earth, would they want to focus on Epstein, Epstein, Epstein? Or, why would they want to discuss families being “torn apart” in these dog days of summer? Well, the reasoning is quite simple, really. There is still a fair amount of positive happening amidst this turmoil. Take our border crossings that have plummeted, according to this.

We will discuss this momentarily. On the subject of Jeffrey Epstein, full disclosure: I do agree there could have, should have, been more transparency. He was a disgusting human being. The plus? He’s dead and his girlfriend/madame is rotting away in prison. That does not change the lives of young women (some children) who were trafficked and put up for prostitution and I agree justice must prevail on this front. I am holding out hope that the horrific acts and proclivities that surrounded Jeffrey Epstein and anyone who was a participant will come into the light in time.

The news of Epstein (or lack of, for that matter) will continue to stoke the flames of the dumpster fire. “Trump is annoyed that people are obsessed with Epstein,” they’ll say. Or, they’ll focus on ICE, villains that they are. “(Illegal) immigrants are scared to go to work (and take their children to the pot farm for illegal child labor)”. Or, my personal favorite, “We live in a fascist state (while big-city liberals fawn over a mayoral wannabe who wants to “Globalize the Intifada“).

This is where the good news and winning comes in. It gets buried in the sea of sensational headlines. The bottom of the inverted pyramid, in favor of histrionics.

U.S. Customs and Border Protection reported the lowest number of border crossings in recorded history in June.

Nationwide, there were 25,228 CBP encounters, the lowest monthly number the agency has recorded, including a ‘historical low’ of 8,024 apprehensions. Encounters include legal ports of entry, whereas apprehensions are arrests of those coming into the United States illegally. “-Cameron Arcand, Fox News

But wait, there’s more:

At the southern border alone, there were only 6,072 apprehensions in June, which is ‘15% lower than the previous March record.’ June also brought along the lowest number of apprehensions in a day on June 28 with just 136.

On drug seizures, the department said there was a 3% uptick from last month in fentanyl seizures, with 742 pounds confiscated. Notably, there was a 102% increase in meth seizures from May, a 19% increase in heroin seizures and a 9% increase in cocaine seizures.”-Cameron Arcand, Fox News

But, Oh. My. God. The masked supervillains of ICE are “busting up families” and going after the unassuming gangbangers in parks on a hot, sunny, summer day.

Meanwhile:

Just in: our brave @ICEGov law enforcement are now facing a 830% INCREASE in assault against them.

This new data reflects the violence against our law enforcement in cities across the country in the last few weeks. Politicians across the country, regardless of political stripe,…

Who is inciting this violence, you ask? The “news” will bury this, too.

So, let’s get back to the border. Again, re-read the above. Fentanyl seizures. Let’s throw in heroin and cocaine seizures, too. What do we really think gangbangers are doing hanging out in parks on a hot, summer’s day, anyway, oh media morons? School’s out. Time to get the next generation hooked. CBP stopped this trash from coming in, which halted the trash criminals on the streets who work for the cartels from selling it.

Furthermore, what do these stats tell us? That Trump’s border policies are working. And, individuals who want to come here are considering legal means of doing so instead of hopping fences. This is good news, and news the “news” wants to bury because we all know Kamala Harris cackled and did nothing. And Joe Biden and Alejandro Mayorkas also didn’t close the floodgates. Hell, they opened them. They all but told them to come. They told us that we needed “legislation” to close the border. Turns out, all we needed was a different president.

Case in point, decreased apprehensions and drug seizures at the border is a win. And the news/media refuses to talk about it.

Which brings us to another harsh truth some Americans are in denial of discussing. The Democrats wanted this. They wanted our infrastructure taxed with the burden of housing, feeding and medically treating illegals. They wanted drugs on our streets. They did not care when young women were raped and killed. They did not care who got addicted or who died from lethal overdoses from drugs smuggled across our borders and put on the streets by illegal cartels. They did not care about people getting burned alive on subway trains by deranged lunatics. I could go on, but, you get the picture.

Off the subject of immigration, they also did not care about groomers in our locker rooms and in our schools or the fact that Jeffrey Epstein abused and molested young girls for years. So excuse me if I hear them shout “Oh, Epstein!” and I laugh because the news jumps all over it, in favor of a complementary nod to some good news.

As for the narrative, we don’t live in any “fascist” states yet, but we might live in some of the sad ones. I’m looking at you, California, Washington, Oregon, New York and D.C. (to name a few). Say what you all want about ICE. For illegal criminals still here and looking for a place to crash, afraid of being apprehended, I am sure there’s a pull-out couch at John Leguizamo’s or any Liberal’s lake house that they will gladly offer you. Keep asking about Epstein, too, liberals, in your performative display of “virtue”.

As for some of us, we know there’s still more work to do but we will take the win when we see it.
