Brandon Johnson Calls Greg Abbott a Threat to 'National Security' for Shipping Illegals to Chicago

Chicago Mayor Brandon Johnson is in a class of his own. Sunday, on CBS's "Face the Nation," Johnson's blatant hypocrisy and mind-blowing lack of self-awareness were on full display — in all of their magnificent idiocy. At issue was Texas Republican Gov. Greg Abbott's continuing transport of illegal aliens to the Windy City. Johnson told host Margaret Brennan that Abbott was “determined to continue to sow seeds of chaos” by shipping illegals to his city.

Well, what we have is clearly— clearly an international and federal crisis that local governments are being asked to subsidize, and this is unsustainable, none of our local economies are positioned to be able to carry on such a mission. And what we have attempted to do is to create structure and some coordination around this— this humanitarian crisis. And unfortunately, the governor of Abbott, the governor of Texas, Governor Abbott, is determined to continue to sow seeds of chaos.

It appears that Johnson has conveniently "forgotten" that the Biden Administration itself has been flying planeloads of illegal aliens around the country "in the dead of night" since at least 2021.

Biden's Brain Turns to Mush During New Year's Eve Appearance With Ryan Seacrest

A new year is upon us, but instead of allowing America to enter it in peace, Joe Biden decided to make one final appearance to remind us all how terrible the last one was.

Appearing with Ryan Seacrest, who was doing the live program for ABC News from Times Square, Biden's brain quickly turned to mush under the most basic questioning. At one point, he was asked what his favorite memories and highlights of 2023 were, which prompted him to talk about how jobs were shipped overseas.

Jill Biden's discomfort is obvious as she gives a deep sigh halfway through his answer and turns to glare at him momentarily. I would assume this was a rehearsed answer that he went in on even though it didn't fit what he was asked. That's one of the results of having a president who can't do something as simple as a light-hearted New Year's Eve spot without canned responses.

He looks so inauthentic because he is. I mean, come on. Who needs notecards to answer softballs from Ryan Seacrest for a few minutes? This is supposed to be one of the most capable men on the planet filling the most important job in politics. But hey, at least he likes ice cream.

The new year awaits. Unfortunately, so does another year of Joe Biden being president. The senility isn't going anywhere and neither are the terrible policies.
