MSNBC Analyst Claims MAGA Wing of GOP Not Only Want Your Rights, Next Step Is to ‘Literally Dismantle the Constitution’

A clearly mentally unstable MSNBC analyst, Lucy Caldwell the former campaign manager for fake Republican Joe Walsh’s underwhelming 2020 presidential campaign, claims that the MAGA wing of the Republican party not only want to take away people’s rights but then dismantle the entire constitution.

Doomsday was in the air on MSNBC on Saturday as a Cross Connection segment dove into the midterm elections and multiple dire warnings were issued about the state of the Republican Party.

“Today’s Republicans are fascist and it’s not just on issues like our democracy and the election being stolen or not stolen. It’s on issues like a woman’s right to medical care,” Lucy Caldwell, the campaign manager for Joe Walsh’s short-lived 2020 presidential campaign, told Tiffany Cross.

She added that the strategy of the Democratic Party should not be focusing on winning conservatives over on specific issues, but rather in “linking” Republicans with extremist positions the public does not support, like complete abortion bans.

“We want to activate voters around their fear about the fear of fascism of Republicans, not necessarily asking them to become...

The relative new ease, convenience, safety, and swiftness of global journeys to the southern border should induce even greater numbers of foreign nationals to try the journey.

Austin, Texas — Following months of Biden administration shuttle diplomacy, multi-national U.S.-bound immigrants from more than 150 countries are now finding international routes to the southern border faster, easier, and less obstructed than ever before.

Panama has dramatically shortened the notorious Darien Gap route from South America for the first time. Mexico has amended a years-old policy of using a national guard road blockade to slow U.S.-bound immigrants on its Guatemala border for one that now immediately hands out fast-pass visas straight to the American border.

Taken altogether, the new relative ease, safety, and swiftness of global journeys to the U.S. southern border should induce even greater numbers of foreign nationals to try the journey, especially those border-crossing nationalities the administration is currently allowing to remain. The number of foreign nationals not from Mexico or Central America is at the highest level in American history, amid illegal migration already at record-breaking levels overall.

Such nationals range from 40 to 50 percent of all who reach the southern border since the Biden administration carved exemptions in the pandemic-related Title 42 instant expulsion policy. The Biden exceptions have allowed large numbers of such trespassing foreign citizens to stay inside the United States. Homeland security officials regard this population as posing heightened national security, public safety, and health risks.

The Biden government has not taken specific credit for these two consequential changes. But the enticing changes do come after months of American diplomacy with Panama and Mexico and fall in line with the administration’s overarching policy idea for border management that illegal immigration not be stopped so much as rendered “safe, humane, and orderly.”

The administration has certainly lodged no objections to the creation of what amounts to a free-flow corridor from Panama through Mexico. That has included nary a discouraging word on Mexico’s apparent order that its national guard deployment, which Biden’s administration once insisted be maintained, stand down.

The New Darien Gap Short Cut

Starting late last year, a series of investigative stories by major American news outlets drew attention to the largest human flows ever recorded through the exceedingly dangerous Darien Gap. That gap is a lawless 60-mile jungle wilderness that must be crossed from Colombia to reach Panama.

Usually no more than 10,000 mostly single, young, adult male immigrants a year undertook the seven- to 10-day trek to Panama over mountains and across flash-flood-prone rivers. Yet more than 130,000 crossed in the first year after Biden won office to take advantage of exemptions the new president allowed in Title 42 for families with young children, unaccompanied minors, and pregnant...
