This Is What The Media Wants: Why?

Because Leftists Worship At The Feet Of Socialism.
It Is A Cult Of Death.

Media, Judges Use ‘Growing Violence’ Myth to Push Mass Illegal Immigration

Many families allegedly fleeing Central American crime are placed by U.S. authorities in equally dangerous cities such as Baltimore and Newark

President Donald Trump’s latest setback in dealing with the ongoing surge of parent and minor aliens at our southern border shows the level of power and distortion wrought on the immigration debate by the New York-Washington media axis.

Los Angeles-based U.S. District Court Judge Dolly Gee dismissed the Justice Department’s request last week to alter the Flores consent decree, stopping, in effect, the Trump administration from regaining the ability to detain illegal-alien family units pending their removal hearings.

Without citing any data, Gee stated in her ruling that growing violence and a “fear of death” back home pushes family units to come to the U.S. illegally — not, as Department of Justice attorneys claimed, the loophole that releases them into U.S. communities, post-apprehension.

That this “growing violence” narrative could be used to justify a court ruling with wide implications for America’s security and sovereignty is indeed scary because, as a simple fact-check shows, that narrative is 100 percent, flat-out wrong.

Secretary Nielsen calls out 'fake news'

When apprehension rates of family units and unaccompanied alien children (UACs) hit surge levels in 2014, “fleeing violence” in Central America immediately became the go-to explanation for major media outlets.

Tellingly, the assertion was never accompanied by statistics showing increasing murder rates in the Central American countries in question: El Salvador, Honduras, and Guatemala (aka the Northern Triangle). The reason is obvious — it wasn’t increasing.

Actual Northern Triangle murder figures, taken from the United Nations Office on Drugs and Crime, show rates dropping, not increasing, going into the...

President Donald Trump’s Environmental Protection Agency has cleaned up more polluted or contaminated sites in less time and at a faster pace than the Obama administration did in all of 2015 and 2016, according to an analysis of government records by The Daily SIgnal.

Wednesday marks the one-year anniversary of the EPA’s Superfund Task Force Report, which includes a list of 42 recommendations for federally funded cleanup efforts at hundreds of polluted and even toxic sites.

An EPA press release highlights progress the agency has made in acting on the task force’s recommendations, including “more direct attention to the sites potentially eligible for partial or full deletion” from the federal Superfund list.

Since Trump took office in January 2017, EPA officials have cleaned up all or part of 13 listed sites, compared with nine sites cleaned up by the Obama administration in 2015 and 2016.

A total of 1,345 sites remain on the Superfund list, according to the EPA.

The agency released a video highlighting Superfund success stories from around the country.

In 1980, Congress passed the Comprehensive Environmental Response, Compensation and Liability Act. Widely known as the Superfund program, it provides funds for cleaning up thousands of contaminated sites across the country that include such contaminants as...
