    Secondly, it's a good thing that Trump is raising awareness to the crisis at the border. I've had enough of Joe lying to us about the crisis. Well, I think he finally admitted that it's a crisis but he's done nothing to address it.
    ... as usual, no proof.

    Try these facts.


    CBP Enforcement Numbers

    In May 2021, CBP encountered 180,034 persons attempting entry along the Southwest Border. This total represented a 1 percent increase over April 2021.

    Single adults continue to make up the majority of these encounters. In May 2021, CBP expelled 112,302 individuals under Title 42. CBP continues to expel single adults and family units that are encountered pursuant to CDC guidance under Title 42 authority. 62 percent of all May encounters resulted in a Title 42 expulsion.

    Encounters along the Southwest Border of unaccompanied children and single minors from Northern Triangle countries dropped again this month by 23 percent, with 10,765 encounters in May 2021 compared with 13,940 in April 2021. Encounters of family units from Northern Triangle countries also dropped again, decreasing by 31 percent to 22,630 in May 2021, down from 32,674 in April.

    The large number of expulsions during the pandemic has contributed to a larger-than-usual number of noncitizens making multiple border crossing attempts, and means total encounters somewhat overstate the number of unique individuals arriving at the border. Thirty-eight percent of encounters in May 2021 were individuals who had at least one prior encounter in the previous 12 months, compared to an average one-year re-encounter rate of 15 percent for Fiscal Years 2014-2019.

            RNC paid Trump’s Mar-a-Lago over $175,000 for donor retreat


            • Federal Election Commission filings show that the six-figure sum was paid in May to Trump’s Mar-a-Lago, a month after the April donor event.
            • The payment is just the latest from Republican officials to a venue owned by the former president.
            • Walter Shaub, the former director of the Office of Government Ethics under former President Barack Obama and briefly under Trump, told CNBC the payment represents Republican leadership working to enrich the former president.



            The Republican National Committee paid just over $175,000 to former President Donald Trump’s private club to host part of its spring donor retreat.

            Federal Election Commission filings show that the six-figure sum was paid in May to Trump’s Mar-a-Lago, a month after the April donor event at the private club in Palm Beach, Florida. A Republican National Committee spokeswoman confirmed that more than $175,000 was, in fact, for the meeting. The new RNC filing describes the payment to Mar-a-Lago as fees for “venue rental and catering.”

            Part of the RNC sponsored-event that month was held at Mar-a-Lago, where the former president took aim at Senate Minority Leader Mitch McConnell, R-Ky. NBC News reported at the time that Trump called McConnell a “dumb son of a b----” and a “stone-cold loser.” The other portion of the retreat took place at the Four Seasons in Palm Beach.

            “I think it’s the same phenomenon as when he did this while in government, grifting."

            The fact that they’re still willing to pay him shows their commitment to meeting his demands for enrichment,” Shaub said.

            “That sends a message that they won’t be demanding he clean up his act. To the contrary, it says they are fully complicit in his monetizing his political activities.”

Also I do not see any difference from the when the Democrats used to party at the Kennedy Compound on Cape Cod Ted was a Senator.

                    ... but why did the RNC choose a Trump property to spend $175,000.00 at?

                    The ex President was accused during his entire four years in office of profiteering/ grifting from the Federal gov't.

                    ... the point of all of this is the ex President is demanding cash payment from his supporters for personal appearances.

                      I wish you nutty liberals would stop with the wild conspiracy theories. Trump could shit 175k out his ass every morning.

                        Trump Organization sues NYC after golf course contract canceled in wake of Capitol attack


                        The Trump Organization on Monday sued the city of New York after it ended its contract for a golf course at Ferry Point Park in the wake of the attack on the US Capitol on January 6.

                        In a lawsuit filed in state court in Manhattan, the company alleged wrongful termination of the contract in mid-January, saying the city and Mayor Bill de Blasio had "denounced President (Donald) Trump in the most inflammatory terms" and "incited others to terminate business with Trump-related entities" the day after the riot.

                        A spokesman for the city law department said Monday that "the actions of Mr. Trump to incite a deadly riot at the Capitol on January 6th caused a breach of the Ferry Point contract by eliminating options for hosting championship events and we will vigorously defend the City's decision to terminate the contract."

                        "The City properly followed the termination process detailed in the contract and we look forward to selecting a new vendor for Ferry Point that will further the best interests of New Yorkers," the spokesman said.

                        The mayor's spokesman, Bill Neidhardt, added on Twitter: "Donald Trump directly incited a deadly insurrection at the U.S. Capitol. You do that, and you lose the privilege of doing business with the City of New York. It's as simple as that."

                        New York City had joined a raft of private businesses when it moved in January to terminate its business relationships with the Trump Organization in response to the then-President's actions on January 6. They include two of his banks, Deutsche Bank and Signature Bank, credit card processor Stripe, Shopify and the PGA of America, which announced it was pulling a major golf tournament from one of Trump's courses.

                          Because it was most likely less than other similar resort hotels. Republicans do not like to spend any more than they have to.

                            ... it is more than likely that Mar-A Lago was not the lowest cost vendor.

                            CNBC reported last year that Trump properties had received more than $17 million from the former president’s campaign and the RNC after the 2016 election. Data from the nonpartisan Center for Responsive Politics shows that from 2008 through the 2020 election, more than $25 million has gone to Trump properties. CRP data also shows that during the 2020 election cycle, the RNC paid Trump properties over $1 million to host political events.

                            Mar-a-Lago has seen over $1 million spent on it by Republican led groups since 2016.

                            ... you cannot see a conflict of interest and would prefer to sweep this story under the rug but the majority of Americans voted to make sure the ex President would never see a second term in office for reasons like this.

                              Maxine Waters has given over $1 million in campaign cash to daughter
                              Waters' family has a history of cashing in on the California Democrat's campaigns



                              U.S. Rep. Maxine Waters, D-Calif., has cashed in more than $1 million for her daughter through her campaigns since 2003, according to federal election data.


                              Karen Waters received over $1.1 million for her services with her mother’s campaigns -- $250,000 of which came from the most recent election cycle, reported the Federal Election Commission.


                              MAXINE WATERS’ CAMPAIGN PAID HER DAUGHTER $240G OVER 2019-20 ELECTION CYCLE, FEC RECORDS SHOW


                              The daughter of the California Democrat organized slate-mailing operations to bolster her mother's re-election.


                              Slate-mailing is an uncommon practice in federal elections, where a consulting firm is hired to create a pamphlet of sorts that contains a list of candidates or policy measures, and advises voters how to cast their ballots.


                              Rep. Waters was reportedly the only federal politician to use a slate-mailer operation during the 2020 general election.

                                Some politicians, whether on the left or right choose to profit from their position. Donny boy is one of these, without a doubt, and if what you have posted is true, so is waters.
