Republicans have falsely labeled Kamala Harris as Joe Biden’s “border czar” in their attempt to blame her for the number of migrant crossings—which is decreasing. It’s a label Donald Trump used in last week’s debate, in between his multiple hateful, lie-filled rants about immigrants. In reality, Harris’ role was mostly limited to addressing the root causes of migration from El Salvador, Guatemala, and Honduras through task forces focused on corruption and smuggling, and by working with the private sector to expand economic opportunities.

Alex Jones Guest Host: MK-ULTRA Responsible For Latest Terror Attacks
Crooks and Liars, Thursday - 01/02/2025 - 09:52 PM
Alex Jones guest host Chase Geiser claimed the latest terror attacks allegedly done by two former US military men were caused by the CIA's long defunct MKUltra program. MK-ULTRA was a dark period in the history of the CIA, when they conducted secret experiments on Americans using LSD and other drugs to perfect mind control to be used as a weapon against our enemies in the 1950s and 60s. In Geiser's short insane rant, he claimed the government used MK-ULTRA on the two former US military personnel to commit terrorists attacks on New Orleans and Las Vegas -- and that's not all, folks.
