THE BIDEN INVASION - Health inspections for foreign nationals entering our country illegally have gone out the window. That's enabled the importation of many diseases which affect livestock and other agricultural output, and already these things are happening. Legal immigrants and even returning U.S. citizens must pass these inspections to protect the U.S. food supply. But under Joe Biden's catch-and-release, illegals are exempt from such cumbersome requirements. MONICA SHOWALTER

Mexico City (CNSNews.com) – Poppy cultivation in Mexico covers an area larger than the District of Columbia, while worldwide opium production shot up by one-third in 2016, according to two recent U.N. studies.
Meanwhile, fatal heroin overdoses in the U.S. last year broke all previous records, the U.N.’s recently released World Drug Report2017 found.
“Mostly driven by opioids, overdose deaths in the United States more than tripled during the period 1999-2015, from 16,849 to 52,404 annually,” the report said.
Deaths from overdoses in the U.S. “increased by 11.4 percent in the past year alone, to reach the highest level ever recorded.”
Inpatient opioid-related hospitalizations in the US skyrocketed by 64 percent from 2005 to 2014, according to a study by U.S. Health and Human Services’ Agency for Healthcare Research and Quality.
Released this month, the study found that emergency room visits related to opioids “nearly doubled” during the period.
Arkansas and Iowa had the lowest rates of opioid-related emergency room visits, while Maryland had the highest.
Last year, the Mexican government with assistance from the U.N. released the results of a first-ever survey of opium fields under cultivation in Mexico, using aerial photography and satellite images taken between 2014 and 2015.
It found a minimum of 21,500 hectares (83 square miles) and a maximum of 24,800 (95 square miles) under active cultivation. The District of Columbia is 68.3 square miles in area.

"These absurd claims were completely

Chicago police officers indicted for covering up murder of Laquan McDonald
By Alexander Fangmann 29 June 2017
On Tuesday, Cook County special prosecutor Patricia Brown Holmes announced grand jury indictments for three Chicago Police Department (CPD) officers. The officers are being charged with conspiracy, obstruction of justice and official misconduct for their roles in covering up the murder of Laquan McDonald, a coverup carried out in order to protect officer Jason Van Dyke for the unprovoked street execution of the 17-year-old in October of 2014.
The indictment accuses David March, Joseph Walsh and Thomas Gaffney of lying to investigators immediately after and following the shooting of McDonald, withholding or giving misleading information, filing false police reports, failing to interview witnesses and destroying evidence.
The indictment states that in order to prevent investigators from learning about the murder, March, Walsh and Gaffney, working closely with Van Dyke, first invented a narrative out of whole cloth to justify Van Dyke’s brutal killing of the youth, who was shot 16 times even though he was attempting to flee and posed no threat to police.
The indictment states that the three officers filed a series of reports alleging that McDonald threatened them with a knife and lunged at Van Dyke, and that even after being shot twice, McDonald supposedly tried to get up and brandish his knife. These absurd claims were completely
shattered by the chilling dashcam video that
was eventually released, an overlooked piece
of evidence whose release CPD, Chicago
Mayor Rahm Emanuel and the Democratic
Party blocked for 13 months.
The indictment also charges the officers for their subsequent efforts to distort, ignore and falsify evidence that might have challenged their story. In particular, the officers threatened to arrest witnesses who might have provided a different narrative. Their efforts to erase 86 minutes of video footage from a Burger King security camera are also mentioned in the indictment.
With the charges stemming from the officers’ roles in concealing the facts of the shooting, the indictment is being hailed as striking a blow at CPD’s “code of silence,” that is, the systematic manipulation of police shooting investigations that has resulted in precisely one murder charge against a CPD officer for an on-duty killing in nearly 35 years, that of Laquan McDonald shooter Jason Van Dyke.
Holmes took this up directly at a press conference, saying, “[t]he indictment makes clear that it is unacceptable to obey an unofficial code of silence.” She further stated, “[t]he indictment makes clear that these defendants did more than merely obey an unofficial ‘code of silence,’ rather it alleges that they lied about what occurred to prevent independent criminal investigators from learning the truth.”
While it is clear that the cops involved are criminally
complicit in Van Dyke’s unjustified murder of
McDonald, the indictment of these three officers,
not to mention the charges against Van Dyke
himself, will ultimately do nothing to change the
entrenched criminality and violence perpetrated by
the Chicago police.
Even if any of them are convicted, which is unlikely, the top officials and politicians who set policy and who defend the police are dead set on giving cops carte blanche to terrorize the city’s working population in order to defend the wealth and privileges of the financial oligarchy.
More appropriately, the present indictment should itself be understood as a continuation of the conspiracy to cover up the shooting and minimize its consequences, particularly for Emanuel and the Democratic Party. When McDonald was shot, and for months after, Emanuel was in the midst of a tight reelection race, and desperate to prevent the release of the video, which he knew would severely hurt his chances.
Emanuel and the city council even
approved a $5 million blood money
payment to McDonald’s family in April
of 2015, before the family had even
filed a wrongful death lawsuit, and the
day after Emanuel won the vote for a
second term.
It was only later in 2015 that the existence of the dashcam video was made known by a whistleblower, corroborating suspicions of journalists and investigators that reports connected to the McDonald shooting were inconsistent with the official autopsy and with an anonymous eyewitness account.
There was no push to charge any of the cops involved with murder or anything else. Democratic Cook County State’s Attorney Anita Alvarez only announced charges against Van Dyke on the same day that the dashcam footage was released to the public.
Since then, all announcements of police “reforms” have been entirely cosmetic. While Alvarez lost reelection as state’s attorney, her replacement, Kim Foxx, has limited herself to pushing for the use of special state prosecutors in cases of police violence. Despite this, she declined to bring charges against CPD officer Robert Rialmo, who killed Quintonio LeGrier and his neighbor, Bettie Jones, after LeGrier’s family called 911 seeking help with their son’s mental health crisis.
Recently, Emanuel backed away from his previously stated intention that CPD enter into court-ordered oversight. A yearlong Justice Department civil rights investigation into CPD depicted in detail a police department rife with misconduct and violence against civilians, and recommended extensive changes.
While the election of Donald Trump likely played a role in Emanuel’s decision, with Trump and attorney general Jeff Sessions opposing these kinds of police consent decrees, it is also a recognition that Chicago’s ruling elite will rely on the police more and more directly as a last line of defense to defend their wealth and privileges. Already, Emanuel had
faced a backlash from Chicago police, many of
whom voted for Trump, and who recently elected a
new Fraternal Order of Police president resolutely
opposed to even the mildest of reforms.
ILLINOIS GOES UNDER $$$$
CALIFORNIA TEETERS ON THE EDGE OF FISCAL ARMAGEDDON BUT STILL HANDS OUT $30 BILLION IN WELFARE TO MEXICANS.
Rep. Steve King (R-Iowa) speaks at the National Press Club on Tuesday, June 27, 2017, at the launch of a group called Advocates for Victims of Illegal Alien Crime (AVIAC), which represents Americans who have lost loved ones because of the actions of illegal aliens. (Screen grab from video posted on Rep. King's website)
(CNSNews.com) – “My son is dead because politicians and local jurisdictions have put illegal aliens ahead of American citizens,” a grieving mother told a gathering at the National Press Club on Tuesday.
Maureen Maloney, whose son was killed in August 2011 by a drunken, unlicensed undocumented immigrant, was addressing parents and relatives of Americans who have been victimized by people who came to this country illegally.
“Sadly, more often than not, our legal system holds the criminal aliens less accountable than Americans, leaving families being victimized,” Maloney said. “Matthew paid the ultimate price. I am permanently separated from my son.”
She called it “outrageous” that some politicians and judges “are willing to protect the illegal aliens at the expense of American citizens.”
Maloney was speaking at the launch of a group called Advocates for Victims of Illegal Alien Crime (AVIAC), which represents people like herself who have lost loved ones because of the actions of illegal aliens. The group will focus on legislation, education and public policy.
Rep. Steve King (R-Iowa), the guest of honor at the AVIAC launch, is a longtime advocate of the rule of law:
“These families are the equivalent of Gold Star Families,” King said. “They’ve lost their loved ones because we didn’t do our job in enforcing the law.”
King said the U.S., under President Trump, is now “on the cusp” of restoring the rule of law:
“Eisenhower enforced immigration law well. Each succeeding president enforced it less and less, until we got to Barack Obama, who simply said, I have prosecutorial discretion; I’m going to decide not to enforce whole vast areas of the law, and I’m going to reward lawbreakers because what, it helps him politically? That seems to have been the equation.
“And so now this contempt for the rule of law – this demand where people come to the streets and they say, ‘I demand a path to citizenship because I want to be an American.’ Well that’s not good enough. You have to also abide by our laws. If you’re a confessed law-breaker, don’t be pressing this society for us to grant you amnesty.”
King noted that the law requires people in the country illegally to be placed in removal proceedings. But that doesn’t happen in so-called sanctuary cities, where local authorities are directed not to cooperate with federal immigration officials.
Five days after taking office, President Donald Trump issued an executive order on immigration, saying that sanctuary jurisdictions “have caused immeasurable harm to the American people and to the very fabric of our Republic.”
Among other things, Trump said sanctuary jurisdictions that willfully flout immigration law would not be eligible to receive federal funds. A federal judge in California later blocked that provision, saying: “The Constitution vests the spending powers in Congress, not the President, so the (Executive) Order cannot constitutionally place new conditions on federal funds.”
But this week, the House is going to fix that problem by taking up two pieces of legislation: Kate's Law, named after Kate Steinle, the young San Francisco woman gunned down by an illegal immigrant who had been deported multiple times; and the No Sanctuary for Criminals Act.
Kate's Law raises the maximum sentence for criminal aliens who illegally re-enter the United States.
The No Sanctuary for Criminals Act prohibits state and local government from implementing policies that help illegal immigrants avoid deportation by stopping the police from cooperating with federal immigration authorities. It also makes jurisdictions that break this law ineligible for certain Justice Department grants and Homeland Security grants, Rep. Martha Roby (R-Ala.) told a news conference on Tuesday.
“Cities, counties and states that refuse to cooperate with the federal agencies to enforce laws of this country should not be rewarded with taxpayer dollars intended to facilitate law and order,” Roby said. “Sanctuary cities are magnets for illegal immigrants, including some dangerous people with criminal records.”
President Trump on Wednesday morning retweeted a Fox News report about the House taking up the immigration legislation. Today (June 28) at 3 p.m., Trump is scheduled to meet with Americans who have been victimized by illegal aliens, as he urges the House to pass Kate’s Law and the No Sanctuary law.
GRAPHIC: 74 Killed in Weeks-Long Cartel War near Texas Border
REYNOSA, Tamaulipas — The raging cartel war for control of this city resulted in at least 74 officially-counted murders. Many more victims have been incinerated just south of the Texas border.
In early May, Breitbart Texas began reporting on rival factions of the Gulf Cartelfightingfor control of this border city. The continuing conflicts resulted in convoys of cartel gunmen roaming the streets looking for their rivals.
Overnight, cartel gunmen dumped a bloodied corpse with a posterboard where one cartel factions threatened their rivals. Bodies withwarningshad not been seen previously in Reynosa. However, they are commonplace in Ciudad Victoria and in the border state of Nuevo Leon where Breitbart Texas has been reporting Los Zetas and other cartels are also carrying out massacres.
The violence spiked in early May, shortly after Mexican authorities killed former Gulf Cartel boss Juan Manuel “Toro” Loiza Salinas in late April. His death led to a power vacuum where his former allies are trying to fight off the another faction that appears to be favored by other cartel leaders.The ongoing fighting has led to a spike in highway robberies, armed robberies, kidnappings, and extortions as cartel commanders continue to look for ways to fund their ongoing war.
The raging violence by the Gulf Cartel immediately south of the Texas border led to the National Border Patrol Council (NBPC) issuing an alert to agents that they represent regarding the cartel war just south of the border, Breitbart Texasreported. The NBPC warned federal agents about the constant gun battles and the possibility of spillover violence or stray rounds fired in Mexico landing in Texas.
Editor’s Note: Breitbart Texas traveled to the Mexican States of Tamaulipas, Coahuila, and Nuevo LeĆ³n to recruit citizen journalists willing to risk their lives and expose the cartels silencing their communities. The writers would face certain death at the hands of the various cartels that operate in those areas including the Gulf Cartel and Los Zetas if a pseudonym were not used.

MANHUNT: Previously Deported MS-13 Gang Member Allegedly Murdered Girlfriend
HOUSTON, Texas — Law enforcement officials in the Houston area are searching for a previously deported MS-13 gang member wanted in connection with the murder of his female companion. The murder victim is also the mother of the suspect’s child.
The suspect, 26-year-old Carlos Gonzalez, bragged about killing people and being a member of the hyper-violentMS-13 gang. Just two weeks earlier, the girlfriend’s sister saw the man “playing” with or “handling” an assault rifle that she said she thought was an AR-15, according to a criminal complaint obtained by Breitbart Texas. The preliminary autopsy report indicates she died from a wound to the head consistent with a rifle round.
Law enforcement officials stated that Gonzalez had been deported in the past. The victim’s mother said he was from El Salvador. El Salvador is the home of the MS-13 transnational criminal gang.
Maritza Blanca Lopez sustained a shot to her left front forehead near the hairline.
“The amount of extensive damage it caused to the skull, and the trail of fragments and jacketing in the skull was consistent with a rifle round,” reported the doctor who performed the autopsy at the Harris County Institute of Forensic Sciences in Houston.
Law enforcement officials discovered Lopez’ partially nude body after dispatchers received a 911 call from an unknown male “who stated that his girlfriend was either playing with a gun or checking the gun and accidentally shot herself.” The man immediately hung up the phone.
Harris County Dispatch called the phone number back, and the unknown caller said he did not know the exact address but gave them an intersection in northwest Harris County. He also said he left to take his baby to the hospital but then decided to take the child to his aunt’s house. He hung up the phone and did not subsequently answer the phone or call authorities back.
Patrol deputies went to the scene and found a residence with the door unlocked. A deputy found an adult Hispanic female in the closet of the bedroom. She was wearing only panties and a bra. Blood and brain matter was splattered on hanging clothes, and the walls and the fuse box in the closet. No weapon, spent-casing, or projectile was found in the closet according to court documents.
After an investigation, officials determined that Lopez and Gonzalez were the listed residents on the apartment. A neighbor told officers that she heard yelling and screaming from two voices in the apartment and then a “loud boom.”
The murdered woman’s mother, Blanca Garcia said Maritza Lopez was involved in a domestic disturbance with her daughter the previous night and has been violent towards Lopez in the past. She said Gonzalez is the father of her granddaughter and an MS-13 gang member.
Investigators found bloody footprints on the floors and a balled-up men’s collared shirt on the floor with a lot of blood stains on it.
Lopez first started dating Gonzalez when she was 14-years-old said her sister, Jessica Lopez. She also told officials that the family had encouraged her sister to leave Gonzalez.
The dead woman’s sister said her sister told her that the couple had a fight and she had kicked out Gonzalez and was planning to leave the apartment. She decided to stay.
Anyone with information about the 5’10” 170 lb. Gonzalez should callCrime Stoppers Houstonat 713-222-TIPS. Officials issued a warrant, but Gonzalez has not been arrested. There is a $200,000 bond.
Court records obtained from the Harris County District Clerk’s Officer revealed Gonzalez has a 2010 felony conviction in Harris County for burglary of a habitation. He also has two pending felony charges for endangering a child from June 3.
Sheriff’s Office offials and officials with Immigration and Customs Enforcement confirmed Gonzalez has not been in custody since his release from prison on the burglary charge.
In March, two MS-13 gang members appeared in a Harris County courtroom laughing and waving at news cameras after being charged with the kidnapping and rape of one 14-year-old girl, and the kidnapping, rape, and murder of another young girl in Jersey Village – a city within the Houston metropolitan area. The murdered girl was allegedly killed as part of a satanic ritual.
Last Tuesday, William F. Sweeney, Jr., the assistant director in charge of the FBI in New York told the House Homeland Security Committee Subcommittee on Counterterrorism and Intelligence, “MS-13 is not the largest street gang in the United States; it is increasingly the most violent and well-organized,” reported Breitbart Texas.
The FBI assistant director added that MS-13 members are “typically much younger than those connected to other street gangs.” They take “cues from the gang instead of relying on a productive family structure. Also, those emigrating from El Salvador to the United States are known to be exposed and desensitized to extreme violence at an early age.” MS-13 members frequently recruit children who are illegal immigrants.
Breitbart Texas reported that the State of Texas considers the MS-13 gang to be a Tier 1 level or the “most significant” threat level. The rise of horrific violence from the gang based in El Salvador and Honduras has also decidedly affected crime levels in the fourth-largest city in the United States. Houston is one of the five cities that the FBI has identified to have a large MS-13 presence. Despite the threat of MS-13 in Houston and Dallas, Houston Mayor Sylvester Turner and Dallas Mayor Mike Rawlings have joined other Democrat mayors in Texas in trying to get the law blocked.
Wednesday evening, President Donald Trump told the crowd gathered in Iowa that MS-13 was like al-Qaida and stressed again his commitment to building a border wall, reportedThe Daily Caller.
In late AprilBreitbart Newsreported that President Trump tweeted, “The Democrats don’t want money from budget going to border wall despite the fact that it will stop drugs and very bad MS 13 gang members.”
