And what’s crazy is that he had no scandals, no war crimes, no policies or actions that hurt even a single soul. A completely clean presidency. He was too good a man for the job. Reagan literally had to tell Iran to hold those people hostage until past the point of the election just so he could blame it on Carter and then take credit for stopping the hostage crisis during his presidency. And that scandal Reagan deliberately and shamelesslt invented cost Carter a second term.

September 30, 2024 5:02pm EDT Facebook Twitter Flipboard Comments Print Email close Video How Hurricane Helene could impact American homeowners FOX Business' Cheryl Casone on how the massive storm could impact the private insurance industry and as a result homeowners and costs. The Biden-Harris administration's disaster relief agency is facing backlash after its unearthed emergency management blueprint went viral amid the destructive hurricane that recently ravaged the southern U.S. The Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA) website lists a set of three goals as part of their strategic plan to "address key challenges" in emergency management. The number one goal listed in the agency's priorities is to "instill equity as a foundation of emergency management." The second goal is "Lead Whole of Community in Climate Resilience" and the third goal is "Promote & Sustain a Ready FEMA & Prepared Nation." According to FEMA's plan, "Diversity, equity, and inclusion cannot be optional." HURRICANE HELENE WREAKS HAVOC ACROSS ASHEVILLE, NC; NATIONAL GUARD DEPLOYED, 119 RESCUED Deanne Criswell, FEMA administrator, speaks during a news conference at the White House on Thursday, Sept. 26, 2024. (Al Drago/Getty Images) "This requires that FEMA’s leadership and workforce demonstrate an increased commitment to integrating diversity, equity, and inclusion in delivering the agency’s mission. FEMA must draw upon its staff’s diversity and range of experiences to consistently inform programming, policy, and decision-making," the FEMA plan continued. "Through investment in diversity and inclusion efforts – including Employee Resource Groups and multicultural training – FEMA can increase its employees’ involvement and participation in cultivating a culture of inclusion."After Hurricane Helene broke out, leaving over 100 dead across six states and millions without power, social media users began criticizing FEMA’s strategic plan in the midst of the damage. "I’m sure people who’ve lost loved ones, lost their homes and now see their town underwater feel really great knowing that FEMA’s #1 goal is to be woke. Everything about their terrible response makes sense now. What an embarrassment," conservative activist Robby Starbuck said in a post on X."Our government is broken," wrote author and scientist Robert Malone, M.D., of the agency's plan. "I heartily disagree – the first priority of FEMA should be emergency response management." "If FEMA response for #HurricaneHelene is slower, it could be attributed to the agency making equity a ‘foundation of emergency management,’" Gabriella Hoffman, an Independent Women's Forum's director, said on X. "Yikes." FEMA, however, denies that the agency's strategic plan has interfered with hurricane disaster relief."That is a lie. We help all people regardless of background as fast as possible before, during and after disasters. That is our mission and that is our focus," director of public affairs Jaclyn Rothenberg told Fox News Digital. "We care about people, all people.

From the FEMA website
> Underserved communities, as well as specific identity groups, often suffer disproportionately from disasters. As a result, disasters worsen inequities already present in society.
> This cycle compounds the challenges faced by these communities and increases their risk to future disasters. By instilling equity as a foundation of emergency management and striving to meet the unique needs of underserved communities, the emergency management community can work to break this cycle and build a more resilient nation.
Heaven forbid we consider thinking about attempting to prioritize help for those *most* in need, that would be woke!

September 30, 2024 5:02pm EDT Facebook Twitter Flipboard Comments Print Email close Video How Hurricane Helene could impact American homeowners FOX Business' Cheryl Casone on how the massive storm could impact the private insurance industry and as a result homeowners and costs. The Biden-Harris administration's disaster relief agency is facing backlash after its unearthed emergency management blueprint went viral amid the destructive hurricane that recently ravaged the southern U.S. The Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA) website lists a set of three goals as part of their strategic plan to "address key challenges" in emergency management. The number one goal listed in the agency's priorities is to "instill equity as a foundation of emergency management." The second goal is "Lead Whole of Community in Climate Resilience" and the third goal is "Promote & Sustain a Ready FEMA & Prepared Nation." According to FEMA's plan, "Diversity, equity, and inclusion cannot be optional." HURRICANE HELENE WREAKS HAVOC ACROSS ASHEVILLE, NC; NATIONAL GUARD DEPLOYED, 119 RESCUED Deanne Criswell, FEMA administrator, speaks during a news conference at the White House on Thursday, Sept. 26, 2024. (Al Drago/Getty Images) "This requires that FEMA’s leadership and workforce demonstrate an increased commitment to integrating diversity, equity, and inclusion in delivering the agency’s mission. FEMA must draw upon its staff’s diversity and range of experiences to consistently inform programming, policy, and decision-making," the FEMA plan continued. "Through investment in diversity and inclusion efforts – including Employee Resource Groups and multicultural training – FEMA can increase its employees’ involvement and participation in cultivating a culture of inclusion."After Hurricane Helene broke out, leaving over 100 dead across six states and millions without power, social media users began criticizing FEMA’s strategic plan in the midst of the damage. "I’m sure people who’ve lost loved ones, lost their homes and now see their town underwater feel really great knowing that FEMA’s #1 goal is to be woke. Everything about their terrible response makes sense now. What an embarrassment," conservative activist Robby Starbuck said in a post on X."Our government is broken," wrote author and scientist Robert Malone, M.D., of the agency's plan.

September 30, 2024 5:02pm EDT Facebook Twitter Flipboard Comments Print Email close Video How Hurricane Helene could impact American homeowners FOX Business' Cheryl Casone on how the massive storm could impact the private insurance industry and as a result homeowners and costs. The Biden-Harris administration's disaster relief agency is facing backlash after its unearthed emergency management blueprint went viral amid the destructive hurricane that recently ravaged the southern U.S. The Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA) website lists a set of three goals as part of their strategic plan to "address key challenges" in emergency management. The number one goal listed in the agency's priorities is to "instill equity as a foundation of emergency management." The second goal is "Lead Whole of Community in Climate Resilience" and the third goal is "Promote & Sustain a Ready FEMA & Prepared Nation." According to FEMA's plan, "Diversity, equity, and inclusion cannot be optional." HURRICANE HELENE WREAKS HAVOC ACROSS ASHEVILLE, NC; NATIONAL GUARD DEPLOYED, 119 RESCUED Deanne Criswell, FEMA administrator, speaks during a news conference at the White House on Thursday, Sept. 26, 2024. (Al Drago/Getty Images) "This requires that FEMA’s leadership and workforce demonstrate an increased commitment to integrating diversity, equity, and inclusion in delivering the agency’s mission. FEMA must draw upon its staff’s diversity and range of experiences to consistently inform programming, policy, and decision-making," the FEMA plan continued. "Through investment in diversity and inclusion efforts – including Employee Resource Groups and multicultural training – FEMA can increase its employees’ involvement and participation in cultivating a culture of inclusion."After Hurricane Helene broke out, leaving over 100 dead across six states and millions without power, social media users began criticizing FEMA’s strategic plan in the midst of the damage. "I’m sure people who’ve lost loved ones, lost their homes and now see their town underwater feel really great knowing that FEMA’s #1 goal is to be woke. Everything about their terrible response makes sense now. What an embarrassment," conservative activist Robby Starbuck said in a post on X."Our government is broken," wrote author and scientist Robert Malone, M.D., of the agency's plan. "I heartily disagree – the first priority of FEMA should be emergency response management." "If FEMA response for #HurricaneHelene is slower, it could be attributed to the agency making equity a ‘foundation of emergency management,’" Gabriella Hoffman, an Independent Women's Forum's director, said on X. "Yikes." FEMA, however, denies that the agency's strategic plan has interfered with hurricane disaster relief."That is a lie. We help all people regardless of background as fast as possible before, during and after disasters. That is our mission and that is our focus," director of public affairs Jaclyn Rothenberg told Fox News Digital. "We care about people, all people. We take our responsibility very seriously to help all communities regardless of background, so that we understand where people are coming from and what their need is so we can provide life-saving and life-sustaining support."FOX CORPORATION LAUNCHES DONATION DRIVE FOR AMERICAN RED CROSS HURRICANE HELENE RELIEF EFFORTS "In case you’re wondering why the response to Hurricane Helene has been a disaster… Fema’s goal 1 is to instill equity as a foundation of emergency management. This is real," Libs of TikTok, an influential conservative account known for reposting far-left content, said in a post. The Rocky Broad River flows into Lake Lure and overflows the town with debris from Chimney Rock, North Carolina, after heavy rains from Hurricane Helene on Sept. 28, 2024. (Melissa Sue Gerrits/Getty Images)"Other government agencies have declared DEI to be part of the scientific process, and therefore beyond the reach of elected officials," Russ Greene, a senior fellow for economic progress at Stand Together Trust, wrote on X.President Biden got defensive Monday during a press conference when he was pressed by a reporter on who was in command over the weekend to direct hurricane response since he was at his beach home in Delaware. CLICK HERE TO GET THE FOX NEWS APP "I was commanding it," Biden declared from the doorway. "I was on the phone for at least two hours yesterday and the day before as well. I command it. It's called a telephone and all my security people."Biden turned again to leave as the reporter began to ask, "Is it not important for the country to see?" The president left and the door closed mid-question.At the start of his remarks, Biden assured that he and his team were "in constant contact with governors, mayors and local leaders" regarding Hurricane Helene.

This is a big nothing burger that the conservatives are spinning for propaganda against Biden's administration.
Having the idea of treating all victims equally and not giving preferential treatment to any group of people is just solid leadership and planning.
Of course all the quotes about it being an embarrassment and similar sentiments come from conservative activists or voices on twitter.
Everyone's an armchair quarterback when it comes to dealing with a disaster like this hurricane but all of those people probably have never been in one or know how chaotic and hard it is to manage and how important it is to keep your mission and goals at the forefront so you don't get lost in the chaos.

The Biden-Harris administration's disaster relief agency is facing backlash after its unearthed emergency management blueprint went viral amid the destructive hurricane that recently ravaged the southern U.S. The Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA) website lists a set of three goals as part of their strategic plan to "address key challenges" in emergency management. The number one goal listed in the agency's priorities is to "instill equity as a foundation of emergency management."

Elon Musk and President Trump expose 'comedy sketch' of wasteful government spending Hurricanes Biden admin's FEMA 'equity' plan faces backlash amid historic hurricane damage: 'What an embarrassment' FEMA states on their website that 'diversity, equity, and inclusion cannot be optional'

September 30, 2024 5:02pm EDT Facebook Twitter Flipboard Comments Print Email close Video How Hurricane Helene could impact American homeowners FOX Business' Cheryl Casone on how the massive storm could impact the private insurance industry and as a result homeowners and costs. The Biden-Harris administration's disaster relief agency is facing backlash after its unearthed emergency management blueprint went viral amid the destructive hurricane that recently ravaged the southern U.S. The Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA) website lists a set of three goals as part of their strategic plan to "address key challenges" in emergency management. The number one goal listed in the agency's priorities is to "instill equity as a foundation of emergency management." The second goal is "Lead Whole of Community in Climate Resilience" and the third goal is "Promote & Sustain a Ready FEMA & Prepared Nation." According to FEMA's plan, "Diversity, equity, and inclusion cannot be optional." HURRICANE HELENE WREAKS HAVOC ACROSS ASHEVILLE, NC; NATIONAL GUARD DEPLOYED, 119 RESCUED Deanne Criswell, FEMA administrator, speaks during a news conference at the White House on Thursday, Sept. 26, 2024. (Al Drago/Getty Images) "This requires that FEMA’s leadership and workforce demonstrate an increased commitment to integrating diversity, equity, and inclusion in delivering the agency’s mission. FEMA must draw upon its staff’s diversity and range of experiences to consistently inform programming, policy, and decision-making," the FEMA plan continued. "Through investment in diversity and inclusion efforts – including Employee Resource Groups and multicultural training – FEMA can increase its employees’ involvement and participation in cultivating a culture of inclusion."After Hurricane Helene broke out, leaving over 100 dead across six states and millions without power, social media users began criticizing FEMA’s strategic plan in the midst of the damage. "I’m sure people who’ve lost loved ones, lost their homes and now see their town underwater feel really great knowing that FEMA’s #1 goal is to be woke. Everything about their terrible response makes sense now. What an embarrassment," conservative activist Robby Starbuck said in a post on X."Our government is broken," wrote author and scientist Robert Malone, M.D., of the agency's plan. "I heartily disagree – the first priority of FEMA should be emergency response management." "If FEMA response for #HurricaneHelene is slower, it could be attributed to the agency making equity a ‘foundation of emergency management,’" Gabriella Hoffman, an Independent Women's Forum's director, said on X. "Yikes." FEMA, however, denies that the agency's strategic plan has interfered with hurricane disaster relief."That is a lie. We help all people regardless of background as fast as possible before, during and after disasters. That is our mission and that is our focus," director of public affairs Jaclyn Rothenberg told Fox News Digital. "We care about people, all people. We take our responsibility very seriously to help all communities regardless of background, so that we understand where people are coming from and what their need is so we can provide life-saving and life-sustaining support."FOX CORPORATION LAUNCHES DONATION DRIVE FOR AMERICAN RED CROSS HURRICANE HELENE RELIEF EFFORTS "In case you’re wondering why the response to Hurricane Helene has been a disaster… Fema’s goal 1 is to instill equity as a foundation of emergency management. This is real," Libs of TikTok, an influential conservative account known for reposting far-left content, said in a post. The Rocky Broad River flows into Lake Lure and overflows the town with debris from Chimney Rock, North Carolina, after heavy rains from Hurricane Helene on Sept. 28, 2024. (Melissa Sue Gerrits/Getty Images)"Other government agencies have declared DEI to be part of the scientific process, and therefore beyond the reach of elected officials," Russ Greene, a senior fellow for economic progress at Stand Together Trust, wrote on X.President Biden got defensive Monday during a press conference when he was pressed by a reporter on who was in command over the weekend to direct hurricane response since he was at his beach home in Delaware. CLICK HERE TO GET THE FOX NEWS APP "I was commanding it," Biden declared from the doorway. "I was on the phone for at least two hours yesterday and the day before as well. I command it. It's called a telephone and all my security people."Biden turned again to leave as the reporter began to ask, "Is it not important for the country to see?" The president left and the door closed mid-question.At the start of his remarks, Biden assured that he and his team were "in constant contact with governors, mayors and local leaders" regarding Hurricane Helene.

The number one goal listed in the agency's priorities is to "instill equity as a foundation of emergency management." The second goal is "Lead Whole of Community in Climate Resilience" and the third goal is "Promote & Sustain a Ready FEMA & Prepared Nation." According to FEMA's plan, "Diversity, equity, and inclusion cannot be optional." HURRICANE HELENE WREAKS HAVOC ACROSS ASHEVILLE, NC; NATIONAL GUARD DEPLOYED, 119 RESCUED Deanne Criswell, FEMA administrator, speaks during a news conference at the White House on Thursday, Sept. 26, 2024. (Al Drago/Getty Images) "This requires that FEMA’s leadership and workforce demonstrate an increased commitment to integrating diversity, equity, and inclusion in delivering the agency’s mission. FEMA must draw upon its staff’s diversity and range of experiences to consistently inform programming, policy, and decision-making," the FEMA plan continued. "Through investment in diversity and inclusion efforts – including Employee Resource Groups and multicultural training – FEMA can increase its employees’ involvement and participation in cultivating a culture of inclusion."After Hurricane Helene broke out, leaving over 100 dead across six states and millions without power, social media users began criticizing FEMA’s strategic plan in the midst of the damage. "I’m sure people who’ve lost loved ones, lost their homes and now see their town underwater feel really great knowing that FEMA’s #1 goal is to be woke. Everything about their terrible response makes sense now. What an embarrassment," conservative activist Robby Starbuck said in a post on X."Our government is broken," wrote author and scientist Robert Malone, M.D., of the agency's plan. "I heartily disagree – the first priority of FEMA should be emergency response management." "If FEMA response for #HurricaneHelene is slower, it could be attributed to the agency making equity a ‘foundation of emergency management,’" Gabriella Hoffman, an Independent Women's Forum's director, said on X. "Yikes." FEMA, however, denies that the agency's strategic plan has interfered with hurricane disaster relief."That is a lie. We help all people regardless of background as fast as possible before, during and after disasters. That is our mission and that is our focus," director of public affairs Jaclyn Rothenberg told Fox News Digital. "We care about people, all people. We take our responsibility very seriously to help all communities regardless of background, so that we understand where people are coming from and what their need is so we can provide life-saving and life-sustaining support."FOX CORPORATION LAUNCHES DONATION DRIVE FOR AMERICAN RED CROSS HURRICANE HELENE RELIEF EFFORTS "In case you’re wondering why the response to Hurricane Helene has been a disaster… Fema’s goal 1 is to instill equity as a foundation of emergency management.

What on earth does a random PR speak web page have to do with what FEMA is actually doing in terms of logistics? You’d almost have to go out of your way to even find this info about FEMA lol. Conservatives are sooooo brain broken at this point. It’s unbelievable.

Elon Musk and President Trump expose 'comedy sketch' of wasteful government spending Hurricanes Biden admin's FEMA 'equity' plan faces backlash amid historic hurricane damage: 'What an embarrassment' FEMA states on their website that 'diversity, equity, and inclusion cannot be optional'

Published
September 30, 2024 5:02pm EDT Facebook Twitter Flipboard Comments Print Email close Video How Hurricane Helene could impact American homeowners FOX Business' Cheryl Casone on how the massive storm could impact the private insurance industry and as a result homeowners and costs. The Biden-Harris administration's disaster relief agency is facing backlash after its unearthed emergency management blueprint went viral amid the destructive hurricane that recently ravaged the southern U.S. The Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA) website lists a set of three goals as part of their strategic plan to "address key challenges" in emergency management. The number one goal listed in the agency's priorities is to "instill equity as a foundation of emergency management." The second goal is "Lead Whole of Community in Climate Resilience" and the third goal is "Promote & Sustain a Ready FEMA & Prepared Nation." According to FEMA's plan, "Diversity, equity, and inclusion cannot be optional." HURRICANE HELENE WREAKS HAVOC ACROSS ASHEVILLE, NC; NATIONAL GUARD DEPLOYED, 119 RESCUED Deanne Criswell, FEMA administrator, speaks during a news conference at the White House on Thursday, Sept. 26, 2024. (Al Drago/Getty Images) "This requires that FEMA’s leadership and workforce demonstrate an increased commitment to integrating diversity, equity, and inclusion in delivering the agency’s mission. FEMA must draw upon its staff’s diversity and range of experiences to consistently inform programming, policy, and decision-making," the FEMA plan continued. "Through investment in diversity and inclusion efforts – including Employee Resource Groups and multicultural training – FEMA can increase its employees’ involvement and participation in cultivating a culture of inclusion."After Hurricane Helene broke out, leaving over 100 dead across six states and millions without power, social media users began criticizing FEMA’s strategic plan in the midst of the damage. "I’m sure people who’ve lost loved ones, lost their homes and now see their town underwater feel really great knowing that FEMA’s #1 goal is to be woke. Everything about their terrible response makes sense now. What an embarrassment," conservative activist Robby Starbuck said in a post on X."Our government is broken," wrote author and scientist Robert Malone, M.D., of the agency's plan. "I heartily disagree – the first priority of FEMA should be emergency response management." "If FEMA response for #HurricaneHelene is slower, it could be attributed to the agency making equity a ‘foundation of emergency management,’" Gabriella Hoffman, an Independent Women's Forum's director, said on X. "Yikes." FEMA, however, denies that the agency's strategic plan has interfered with hurricane disaster relief."That is a lie. We help all people regardless of background as fast as possible before, during and after disasters. That is our mission and that is our focus," director of public affairs Jaclyn Rothenberg told Fox News Digital. "We care about people, all people. We take our responsibility very seriously to help all communities regardless of background, so that we understand where people are coming from and what their need is so we can provide life-saving and life-sustaining support."FOX CORPORATION LAUNCHES DONATION DRIVE FOR AMERICAN RED CROSS HURRICANE HELENE RELIEF EFFORTS "In case you’re wondering why the response to Hurricane Helene has been a disaster… Fema’s goal 1 is to instill equity as a foundation of emergency management. This is real," Libs of TikTok, an influential conservative account known for reposting far-left content, said in a post. The Rocky Broad River flows into Lake Lure and overflows the town with debris from Chimney Rock, North Carolina, after heavy rains from Hurricane Helene on Sept. 28, 2024. (Melissa Sue Gerrits/Getty Images)"Other government agencies have declared DEI to be part of the scientific process, and therefore beyond the reach of elected officials," Russ Greene, a senior fellow for economic progress at Stand Together Trust, wrote on X.President Biden got defensive Monday during a press conference when he was pressed by a reporter on who was in command over the weekend to direct hurricane response since he was at his beach home in Delaware. CLICK HERE TO GET THE FOX NEWS APP "I was commanding it," Biden declared from the doorway. "I was on the phone for at least two hours yesterday and the day before as well. I command it. It's called a telephone and all my security people."Biden turned again to leave as the reporter began to ask, "Is it not important for the country to see?" The president left and the door closed mid-question.At the start of his remarks, Biden assured that he and his team were "in constant contact with governors, mayors and local leaders" regarding Hurricane Helene.

The Biden-Harris administration's disaster relief agency is facing backlash after its unearthed emergency management blueprint went viral amid the destructive hurricane that recently ravaged the southern U.S. The Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA) website lists a set of three goals as part of their strategic plan to "address key challenges" in emergency management. The number one goal listed in the agency's priorities is to "instill equity as a foundation of emergency management." The second goal is "Lead Whole of Community in Climate Resilience" and the third goal is "Promote & Sustain a Ready FEMA & Prepared Nation." According to FEMA's plan, "Diversity, equity, and inclusion cannot be optional." HURRICANE HELENE WREAKS HAVOC ACROSS ASHEVILLE, NC; NATIONAL GUARD DEPLOYED, 119 RESCUED Deanne Criswell, FEMA administrator, speaks during a news conference at the White House on Thursday, Sept. 26, 2024. (Al Drago/Getty Images) "This requires that FEMA’s leadership and workforce demonstrate an increased commitment to integrating diversity, equity, and inclusion in delivering the agency’s mission. FEMA must draw upon its staff’s diversity and range of experiences to consistently inform programming, policy, and decision-making," the FEMA plan continued. "Through investment in diversity and inclusion efforts – including Employee Resource Groups and multicultural training – FEMA can increase its employees’ involvement and participation in cultivating a culture of inclusion."After Hurricane Helene broke out, leaving over 100 dead across six states and millions without power, social media users began criticizing FEMA’s strategic plan in the midst of the damage. "I’m sure people who’ve lost loved ones, lost their homes and now see their town underwater feel really great knowing that FEMA’s #1 goal is to be woke. Everything about their terrible response makes sense now. What an embarrassment," conservative activist Robby Starbuck said in a post on X."Our government is broken," wrote author and scientist Robert Malone, M.D., of the agency's plan. "I heartily disagree – the first priority of FEMA should be emergency response management." "If FEMA response for #HurricaneHelene is slower, it could be attributed to the agency making equity a ‘foundation of emergency management,’" Gabriella Hoffman, an Independent Women's Forum's director, said on X. "Yikes." FEMA, however, denies that the agency's strategic plan has interfered with hurricane disaster relief."That is a lie. We help all people regardless of background as fast as possible before, during and after disasters. That is our mission and that is our focus," director of public affairs Jaclyn Rothenberg told Fox News Digital. "We care about people, all people. We take our responsibility very seriously to help all communities regardless of background, so that we understand where people are coming from and what their need is so we can provide life-saving and life-sustaining support."FOX CORPORATION LAUNCHES DONATION DRIVE FOR AMERICAN RED CROSS HURRICANE HELENE RELIEF EFFORTS "In case you’re wondering why the response to Hurricane Helene has been a disaster… Fema’s goal 1 is to instill equity as a foundation of emergency management.

Elon Musk and President Trump expose 'comedy sketch' of wasteful government spending Hurricanes Biden admin's FEMA 'equity' plan faces backlash amid historic hurricane damage: 'What an embarrassment' FEMA states on their website that 'diversity, equity, and inclusion cannot be optional'

September 30, 2024 5:02pm EDT Facebook Twitter Flipboard Comments Print Email close Video How Hurricane Helene could impact American homeowners FOX Business' Cheryl Casone on how the massive storm could impact the private insurance industry and as a result homeowners and costs. The Biden-Harris administration's disaster relief agency is facing backlash after its unearthed emergency management blueprint went viral amid the destructive hurricane that recently ravaged the southern U.S. The Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA) website lists a set of three goals as part of their strategic plan to "address key challenges" in emergency management. The number one goal listed in the agency's priorities is to "instill equity as a foundation of emergency management." The second goal is "Lead Whole of Community in Climate Resilience" and the third goal is "Promote & Sustain a Ready FEMA & Prepared Nation." According to FEMA's plan, "Diversity, equity, and inclusion cannot be optional." HURRICANE HELENE WREAKS HAVOC ACROSS ASHEVILLE, NC; NATIONAL GUARD DEPLOYED, 119 RESCUED Deanne Criswell, FEMA administrator, speaks during a news conference at the White House on Thursday, Sept. 26, 2024. (Al Drago/Getty Images) "This requires that FEMA’s leadership and workforce demonstrate an increased commitment to integrating diversity, equity, and inclusion in delivering the agency’s mission. FEMA must draw upon its staff’s diversity and range of experiences to consistently inform programming, policy, and decision-making," the FEMA plan continued. "Through investment in diversity and inclusion efforts – including Employee Resource Groups and multicultural training – FEMA can increase its employees’ involvement and participation in cultivating a culture of inclusion."After Hurricane Helene broke out, leaving over 100 dead across six states and millions without power, social media users began criticizing FEMA’s strategic plan in the midst of the damage. "I’m sure people who’ve lost loved ones, lost their homes and now see their town underwater feel really great knowing that FEMA’s #1 goal is to be woke. Everything about their terrible response makes sense now. What an embarrassment," conservative activist Robby Starbuck said in a post on X."Our government is broken," wrote author and scientist Robert Malone, M.D., of the agency's plan. "I heartily disagree – the first priority of FEMA should be emergency response management." "If FEMA response for #HurricaneHelene is slower, it could be attributed to the agency making equity a ‘foundation of emergency management,’" Gabriella Hoffman, an Independent Women's Forum's director, said on X. "Yikes." FEMA, however, denies that the agency's strategic plan has interfered with hurricane disaster relief."That is a lie. We help all people regardless of background as fast as possible before, during and after disasters. That is our mission and that is our focus," director of public affairs Jaclyn Rothenberg told Fox News Digital. "We care about people, all people. We take our responsibility very seriously to help all communities regardless of background, so that we understand where people are coming from and what their need is so we can provide life-saving and life-sustaining support."FOX CORPORATION LAUNCHES DONATION DRIVE FOR AMERICAN RED CROSS HURRICANE HELENE RELIEF EFFORTS "In case you’re wondering why the response to Hurricane Helene has been a disaster… Fema’s goal 1 is to instill equity as a foundation of emergency management. This is real," Libs of TikTok, an influential conservative account known for reposting far-left content, said in a post. The Rocky Broad River flows into Lake Lure and overflows the town with debris from Chimney Rock, North Carolina, after heavy rains from Hurricane Helene on Sept. 28, 2024. (Melissa Sue Gerrits/Getty Images)"Other government agencies have declared DEI to be part of the scientific process, and therefore beyond the reach of elected officials," Russ Greene, a senior fellow for economic progress at Stand Together Trust, wrote on X.President Biden got defensive Monday during a press conference when he was pressed by a reporter on who was in command over the weekend to direct hurricane response since he was at his beach home in Delaware. CLICK HERE TO GET THE FOX NEWS APP "I was commanding it," Biden declared from the doorway. "I was on the phone for at least two hours yesterday and the day before as well. I command it. It's called a telephone and all my security people."Biden turned again to leave as the reporter began to ask, "Is it not important for the country to see?" The president left and the door closed mid-question.At the start of his remarks, Biden assured that he and his team were "in constant contact with governors, mayors and local leaders" regarding Hurricane Helene.

The Biden-Harris administration's disaster relief agency is facing backlash after its unearthed emergency management blueprint went viral amid the destructive hurricane that recently ravaged the southern U.S. The Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA) website lists a set of three goals as part of their strategic plan to "address key challenges" in emergency management. The number one goal listed in the agency's priorities is to "instill equity as a foundation of emergency management." The second goal is "Lead Whole of Community in Climate Resilience" and the third goal is "Promote & Sustain a Ready FEMA & Prepared Nation." According to FEMA's plan, "Diversity, equity, and inclusion cannot be optional." HURRICANE HELENE WREAKS HAVOC ACROSS ASHEVILLE, NC; NATIONAL GUARD DEPLOYED, 119 RESCUED Deanne Criswell, FEMA administrator, speaks during a news conference at the White House on Thursday, Sept. 26, 2024. (Al Drago/Getty Images) "This requires that FEMA’s leadership and workforce demonstrate an increased commitment to integrating diversity, equity, and inclusion in delivering the agency’s mission. FEMA must draw upon its staff’s diversity and range of experiences to consistently inform programming, policy, and decision-making," the FEMA plan continued. "Through investment in diversity and inclusion efforts – including Employee Resource Groups and multicultural training – FEMA can increase its employees’ involvement and participation in cultivating a culture of inclusion."After Hurricane Helene broke out, leaving over 100 dead across six states and millions without power, social media users began criticizing FEMA’s strategic plan in the midst of the damage. "I’m sure people who’ve lost loved ones, lost their homes and now see their town underwater feel really great knowing that FEMA’s #1 goal is to be woke. Everything about their terrible response makes sense now. What an embarrassment," conservative activist Robby Starbuck said in a post on X."Our government is broken," wrote author and scientist Robert Malone, M.D., of the agency's plan. "I heartily disagree – the first priority of FEMA should be emergency response management." "If FEMA response for #HurricaneHelene is slower, it could be attributed to the agency making equity a ‘foundation of emergency management,’" Gabriella Hoffman, an Independent Women's Forum's director, said on X. "Yikes." FEMA, however, denies that the agency's strategic plan has interfered with hurricane disaster relief."That is a lie. We help all people regardless of background as fast as possible before, during and after disasters. That is our mission and that is our focus," director of public affairs Jaclyn Rothenberg told Fox News Digital. "We care about people, all people. We take our responsibility very seriously to help all communities regardless of background, so that we understand where people are coming from and what their need is so we can provide life-saving and life-sustaining support."FOX CORPORATION LAUNCHES DONATION DRIVE FOR AMERICAN RED CROSS HURRICANE HELENE RELIEF EFFORTS "In case you’re wondering why the response to Hurricane Helene has been a disaster… Fema’s goal 1 is to instill equity as a foundation of emergency management.

The president left and the door closed mid-question.At the start of his remarks, Biden assured that he and his team were "in constant contact with governors, mayors and local leaders" regarding Hurricane Helene.

Timm and Lindsey PipiaHurricane Helene has caused significant disruptions for election officials in North Carolina and across the Southeast, scrambling preparations for early and mail voting that have been in the works for months.In western North Carolina, one of the areas hit hardest by the storm, election officials were working Monday to evaluate what changes needed to be made in a key presidential battleground state where mail ballots started going out last week and early in-person voting is scheduled to begin in three weeks. North Carolina officials mailed 190,000 ballots last week, some of which may be delayed or destroyed by flooding. Mail service is suspended to many areas, which will halt the transport of the ballots. And there's more pressure for voters to get their ballots in early this year: State legislators recently eliminated a grace period that allowed ballots with on-time postmarks to be counted even if they arrived three days after the election.At least 14 county election offices are closed and are expected to be for several days, said Karen Brinson Bell, executive director of the State Board of Elections. “At this point in time as we know it, all the members of our elections community are safe and sound and preparing themselves to serve all eligible voters in North Carolina,” Brinson Bell said, noting that the officials were working through challenging circumstances with power outages, limited cell service and impassable roads. One staffer in Buncombe County walked more than 4 miles to work Monday, she said.Officials in Buncombe County are assessing polling sites and working to account for staff and board members. Some staffers are stranded, Corinne Duncan, the county's election services director, said in an update shared by a spokesperson. The county's election offices have power but no water, but staffers still managed to drop off 200 mail ballots at the post office Monday.The State Board of Elections voted Monday to give counties the ability to reschedule board meetings where absentee ballot applications are reviewed. Brinson Bell said state officials will soon publish a website for hurricane-related information and hold a media briefing Tuesday to outline procedures for voters to cite a natural disaster as reason they don’t have photo ID, which is required to vote in North Carolina.Even ballots sent from unaffected counties could be affected, said Gerry Cohen, a member of the Wake County Board of Elections, if they're traveling to or through the western part of the state.“Anything to or from western North Carolina is probably greatly impacted by that. It would even affect Wake County,” Cohen said (Wake County, home to Raleigh, is farther east).Cohen said voters who have been displaced by the storm or don't end up receiving their mail ballots can cancel them and request other ones, though voters will need to contact their local election offices, which may be closed, to do so. They can also opt to vote in person, a move that will "spoil" their mail ballots so they can’t be counted even if they’re returned later, according to the state's voting site.Election officials were originally scheduled to start sending mail ballots Sept. 6 but were delayed after former third-party presidential candidate Robert F. Kennedy Jr. sued to remove himself from the ballot. His lawsuit, which was successful, forced the state to reprint its ballots. Officials started mailing ballots to overseas and military voters on Sept. 20 and all other voters who requested them last Tuesday. Early in-person voting is scheduled to begin Oct. 17 across more than 400 locations in North Carolina. Each site in the affected counties will need to be checked for accessibility, power and water.Cohen also warned that the hurricane could cause staffing issues. Election officials will need to make sure their poll workers — many of whom he said will have already been trained — haven’t been displaced and can still work their scheduled shifts for the early voting period and on Election Day.North Carolina is among the core battleground states former President Donald Trump and Vice President Kamala Harris are competing in this fall. About 7% of the state's voters cast their ballots by mail in the 2022 midterm elections. The area of North Carolina hit by the hurricane tends to lean Republican politically, aside from Democrat-heavy Asheville. Election officials in other states affected by the hurricane, including Florida, Georgia, South Carolina and Tennessee, also face challenges. Robert Sinner, communications director for the Georgia secretary of state’s office, said most counties were spared substantial impact by the storm, though the Jenkins County elections office has faced some physical damage. TJ Lundeen, a spokesman for the South Carolina State Election Commission, said is expects some early voting center and Election Day sites will need to change.Doug Kufner, spokesman for the Tennessee secretary of state, said at least six Election Day polling sites and two county election offices in northeast Tennessee have experienced damage or will have driving accessibility issues.“The election community in Tennessee is united; when one hurts, we all hurt. The heartache, shock, and devastation are massive," he said in an email. "However, we are confident that the challenges caused by the flooding will be overcome because of the planning and resilience of election officials in the impacted counties."Jane C. TimmJane C.

They can also opt to vote in person, a move that will "spoil" their mail ballots so they can’t be counted even if they’re returned later, according to the state's voting site.Election officials were originally scheduled to start sending mail ballots Sept. 6 but were delayed after former third-party presidential candidate Robert F. Kennedy Jr. sued to remove himself from the ballot. His lawsuit, which was successful, forced the state to reprint its ballots. Officials started mailing ballots to overseas and military voters on Sept. 20 and all other voters who requested them last Tuesday. Early in-person voting is scheduled to begin Oct. 17 across more than 400 locations in North Carolina. Each site in the affected counties will need to be checked for accessibility, power and water.Cohen also warned that the hurricane could cause staffing issues. Election officials will need to make sure their poll workers — many of whom he said will have already been trained — haven’t been displaced and can still work their scheduled shifts for the early voting period and on Election Day.North Carolina is among the core battleground states former President Donald Trump and Vice President Kamala Harris are competing in this fall. About 7% of the state's voters cast their ballots by mail in the 2022 midterm elections. The area of North Carolina hit by the hurricane tends to lean Republican politically, aside from Democrat-heavy Asheville. Election officials in other states affected by the hurricane, including Florida, Georgia, South Carolina and Tennessee, also face challenges. Robert Sinner, communications director for the Georgia secretary of state’s office, said most counties were spared substantial impact by the storm, though the Jenkins County elections office has faced some physical damage. TJ Lundeen, a spokesman for the South Carolina State Election Commission, said is expects some early voting center and Election Day sites will need to change.Doug Kufner, spokesman for the Tennessee secretary of state, said at least six Election Day polling sites and two county election offices in northeast Tennessee have experienced damage or will have driving accessibility issues.“The election community in Tennessee is united; when one hurts, we all hurt. The heartache, shock, and devastation are massive," he said in an email. "However, we are confident that the challenges caused by the flooding will be overcome because of the planning and resilience of election officials in the impacted counties."Jane C. TimmJane C.

I am worried that state officials from the affected states may claim that some ballots are not valid because the dropboxes they are deposited into were damaged by water or lost due to hurricane. Please look up for ways to verify that your vote is indeed cast and received.

Timm and Lindsey PipiaHurricane Helene has caused significant disruptions for election officials in North Carolina and across the Southeast, scrambling preparations for early and mail voting that have been in the works for months.In western North Carolina, one of the areas hit hardest by the storm, election officials were working Monday to evaluate what changes needed to be made in a key presidential battleground state where mail ballots started going out last week and early in-person voting is scheduled to begin in three weeks. North Carolina officials mailed 190,000 ballots last week, some of which may be delayed or destroyed by flooding. Mail service is suspended to many areas, which will halt the transport of the ballots. And there's more pressure for voters to get their ballots in early this year: State legislators recently eliminated a grace period that allowed ballots with on-time postmarks to be counted even if they arrived three days after the election.At least 14 county election offices are closed and are expected to be for several days, said Karen Brinson Bell, executive director of the State Board of Elections. “At this point in time as we know it, all the members of our elections community are safe and sound and preparing themselves to serve all eligible voters in North Carolina,” Brinson Bell said, noting that the officials were working through challenging circumstances with power outages, limited cell service and impassable roads. One staffer in Buncombe County walked more than 4 miles to work Monday, she said.Officials in Buncombe County are assessing polling sites and working to account for staff and board members. Some staffers are stranded, Corinne Duncan, the county's election services director, said in an update shared by a spokesperson. The county's election offices have power but no water, but staffers still managed to drop off 200 mail ballots at the post office Monday.The State Board of Elections voted Monday to give counties the ability to reschedule board meetings where absentee ballot applications are reviewed.

If Trump loses in NC he’ll blame the federal response to the hurricane as the reason his supporters votes were suppressed. He’s already laying the groundwork.

His opponents’ rhetoric, they said, is so inflammatory that it was bound to incite violence. “Everybody’s rhetoric just needs to change,” said Eric Trump. It was time to “turn the temperature down in this country,” said House Speaker Mike Johnson. When two months later an armed man laying in wait at Trump’s golf course was confronted by the Secret Service, JD Vance said “the left needs to tone down the rhetoric, and needs to cut this crap out.” The would-be shooter, said Trump himself, “believed the rhetoric of [President Joe] Biden and [Vice President Kamala] Harris, and he acted on it.” Yet after these appeals for a calmer political debate, with each passing week Trump is turning the rhetoric up. It’s difficult to tell if Trump believes this is a clever strategy or if, as the election nears, he is simply becoming less restrained, revealing his purest impulses in all their odiousness. Whatever the reason, his most recent rallies reveal a candidate seemingly intent on being more provocative, more angry, more hateful, and more supportive of violence than ever before.Targeting Trump’s enemies for threats and violence is now woven deeply into his movement.Over the weekend, the former president’s attacks on Vice President and Democratic nominee Kamala Harris became even more unhinged. At a rally in Wisconsin, Trump called her “a very dumb person,” claimed she was “mentally impaired” and that she “was born that way.” Even by his standards, it was a remarkably lurid attack on the competence of an opponent who soundly defeated him in the recent debate.Similarly, while it’s true that Trump has long fantasized about violence that might be committed against criminals, immigrants or his political foes (“I’d like to punch him in the face,” he said about a protester in 2016), lately his rhetoric has gotten even more intense. In the same Wisconsin rally, for instance, his usual description of immigrants as murderers included this vivid description: “They make our criminals look like babies. These are stone-cold killers. They’ll walk into your kitchen, they’ll cut your throat.” Of course, this is the fault of Kamala Harris, who is “letting in people who will walk into your house,” he said. “They’ll do anything they want. These people are animals.”At another rally the next day, Trump presented a new solution to all crime: more violence. “If you had one really violent day,” he said, the problem would be solved. “One rough hour — and I mean real rough — the word will get out and it will end immediately.” While some social media users likened this suggestion to “The Purge,” the movie series in which all crime is legalized for one day per year, Trump in fact was talking about government violence directed at members of the public, without any constraints of civil liberties and laws. If only we could unleash law enforcement for “one really violent day,” people would be sufficiently terrorized that all crime would cease. This is one part of a broader vision Trump has always had, in which America is saturated in threats and violence, which must in turn be met with even more threats and violence, from both the government and vigilantes, against those he and his supporters despise. Targeting Trump’s enemies for threats and violence is now woven deeply into his movement; if he singles you out, you can expect to live in fear, and the collateral damage is wide. We need look no farther than Springfield, Ohio, a city full of his running mate JD Vance’s constituents. After the two running mates began telling repugnant lies about Haitian immigrants there supposedly eating pets, the town was deluged with bomb threats, leading to school closures and evacuations.The lesson Trump seems to have taken from previous elections is that fear and hate are political winners.One local business owner, a Republican who voted twice for Trump, said publicly that the 10% of his employees who are Haitian immigrants are excellent and conscientious workers. In response, reported The New York Times, he faced “death threats, a lockdown at his company and posters around town branding him a traitor for hiring immigrants.”That series of events has become so common we no longer see it as remarkable: obviously if Trump targets you, or even if you’re an ordinary person who contradicts him publicly, your life will be upended with threats and harassment. Where do they get the idea that that’s how they should treat their political opponents? It’s no mystery.The stakes in this election, Trump tells them, are not merely consequential but positively apocalyptic. “If Kamala is re-elected, your town, and every town just like it,” he says, “will be transformed into a third-world hellhole,” with all the attendant rape, murder and throat-cutting. If you believed that was true, wouldn’t violence be a reasonable response?The lesson Trump seems to have taken from previous elections is that fear and hate are political winners, and the only thing he did wrong in 2016 and 2020 was to be too restrained in fomenting both. Five weeks remain until the election, and we have every reason to believe Trump will be “real rough,” as he puts it, every day between now and then. If all his rhetoric produces is the lusty cheers of a base that thrills to the prospect of violence — and is told that they have a part to play in meting it out — we should count ourselves lucky.Paul WaldmanPaul Waldman is a journalist and author whose writing has appeared in dozens of publications.

His opponents’ rhetoric, they said, is so inflammatory that it was bound to incite violence. “Everybody’s rhetoric just needs to change,” said Eric Trump. It was time to “turn the temperature down in this country,” said House Speaker Mike Johnson. When two months later an armed man laying in wait at Trump’s golf course was confronted by the Secret Service, JD Vance said “the left needs to tone down the rhetoric, and needs to cut this crap out.” The would-be shooter, said Trump himself, “believed the rhetoric of [President Joe] Biden and [Vice President Kamala] Harris, and he acted on it.” Yet after these appeals for a calmer political debate, with each passing week Trump is turning the rhetoric up. It’s difficult to tell if Trump believes this is a clever strategy or if, as the election nears, he is simply becoming less restrained, revealing his purest impulses in all their odiousness. Whatever the reason, his most recent rallies reveal a candidate seemingly intent on being more provocative, more angry, more hateful, and more supportive of violence than ever before.Targeting Trump’s enemies for threats and violence is now woven deeply into his movement.Over the weekend, the former president’s attacks on Vice President and Democratic nominee Kamala Harris became even more unhinged. At a rally in Wisconsin, Trump called her “a very dumb person,” claimed she was “mentally impaired” and that she “was born that way.” Even by his standards, it was a remarkably lurid attack on the competence of an opponent who soundly defeated him in the recent debate.Similarly, while it’s true that Trump has long fantasized about violence that might be committed against criminals, immigrants or his political foes (“I’d like to punch him in the face,” he said about a protester in 2016), lately his rhetoric has gotten even more intense. In the same Wisconsin rally, for instance, his usual description of immigrants as murderers included this vivid description: “They make our criminals look like babies. These are stone-cold killers. They’ll walk into your kitchen, they’ll cut your throat.” Of course, this is the fault of Kamala Harris, who is “letting in people who will walk into your house,” he said. “They’ll do anything they want. These people are animals.”At another rally the next day, Trump presented a new solution to all crime: more violence. “If you had one really violent day,” he said, the problem would be solved. “One rough hour — and I mean real rough — the word will get out and it will end immediately.” While some social media users likened this suggestion to “The Purge,” the movie series in which all crime is legalized for one day per year, Trump in fact was talking about government violence directed at members of the public, without any constraints of civil liberties and laws. If only we could unleash law enforcement for “one really violent day,” people would be sufficiently terrorized that all crime would cease. This is one part of a broader vision Trump has always had, in which America is saturated in threats and violence, which must in turn be met with even more threats and violence, from both the government and vigilantes, against those he and his supporters despise. Targeting Trump’s enemies for threats and violence is now woven deeply into his movement; if he singles you out, you can expect to live in fear, and the collateral damage is wide. We need look no farther than Springfield, Ohio, a city full of his running mate JD Vance’s constituents. After the two running mates began telling repugnant lies about Haitian immigrants there supposedly eating pets, the town was deluged with bomb threats, leading to school closures and evacuations.The lesson Trump seems to have taken from previous elections is that fear and hate are political winners.One local business owner, a Republican who voted twice for Trump, said publicly that the 10% of his employees who are Haitian immigrants are excellent and conscientious workers. In response, reported The New York Times, he faced “death threats, a lockdown at his company and posters around town branding him a traitor for hiring immigrants.”That series of events has become so common we no longer see it as remarkable: obviously if Trump targets you, or even if you’re an ordinary person who contradicts him publicly, your life will be upended with threats and harassment. Where do they get the idea that that’s how they should treat their political opponents? It’s no mystery.The stakes in this election, Trump tells them, are not merely consequential but positively apocalyptic. “If Kamala is re-elected, your town, and every town just like it,” he says, “will be transformed into a third-world hellhole,” with all the attendant rape, murder and throat-cutting. If you believed that was true, wouldn’t violence be a reasonable response?The lesson Trump seems to have taken from previous elections is that fear and hate are political winners, and the only thing he did wrong in 2016 and 2020 was to be too restrained in fomenting both.

“At another rally the next day, Trump presented a new solution to all crime: more violence. “If you had one really violent day,” he said, the problem would be solved. “One rough hour — and I mean real rough — the word will get out and it will end immediately.”
Is Trump suggesting a real life version of the Purge?

He was so happy when the J6 folks were attacking the Capitol. If he’s going to lose, which he’s realizing is a real possibility now, he will get a kick out of people doing violence in Trump’s name. He’ll be watching from the closest non-extradition country that has McDonalds.

Considering the blatantly transphobic commercial they just ran during Monday Night Football here (Wisconsin) that ended with “Kamala Harris is for they/them, Donald Trump is for you” I’m not surprised. It was jarring to see him double down on hate like that. I thought I was numb to his shit but that genuinely made me feel panic.

His opponents’ rhetoric, they said, is so inflammatory that it was bound to incite violence. “Everybody’s rhetoric just needs to change,” said Eric Trump. It was time to “turn the temperature down in this country,” said House Speaker Mike Johnson. When two months later an armed man laying in wait at Trump’s golf course was confronted by the Secret Service, JD Vance said “the left needs to tone down the rhetoric, and needs to cut this crap out.” The would-be shooter, said Trump himself, “believed the rhetoric of [President Joe] Biden and [Vice President Kamala] Harris, and he acted on it.” Yet after these appeals for a calmer political debate, with each passing week Trump is turning the rhetoric up. It’s difficult to tell if Trump believes this is a clever strategy or if, as the election nears, he is simply becoming less restrained, revealing his purest impulses in all their odiousness. Whatever the reason, his most recent rallies reveal a candidate seemingly intent on being more provocative, more angry, more hateful, and more supportive of violence than ever before.Targeting Trump’s enemies for threats and violence is now woven deeply into his movement.Over the weekend, the former president’s attacks on Vice President and Democratic nominee Kamala Harris became even more unhinged. At a rally in Wisconsin, Trump called her “a very dumb person,” claimed she was “mentally impaired” and that she “was born that way.” Even by his standards, it was a remarkably lurid attack on the competence of an opponent who soundly defeated him in the recent debate.Similarly, while it’s true that Trump has long fantasized about violence that might be committed against criminals, immigrants or his political foes (“I’d like to punch him in the face,” he said about a protester in 2016), lately his rhetoric has gotten even more intense. In the same Wisconsin rally, for instance, his usual description of immigrants as murderers included this vivid description: “They make our criminals look like babies. These are stone-cold killers. They’ll walk into your kitchen, they’ll cut your throat.” Of course, this is the fault of Kamala Harris, who is “letting in people who will walk into your house,” he said. “They’ll do anything they want. These people are animals.”At another rally the next day, Trump presented a new solution to all crime: more violence. “If you had one really violent day,” he said, the problem would be solved. “One rough hour — and I mean real rough — the word will get out and it will end immediately.” While some social media users likened this suggestion to “The Purge,” the movie series in which all crime is legalized for one day per year, Trump in fact was talking about government violence directed at members of the public, without any constraints of civil liberties and laws. If only we could unleash law enforcement for “one really violent day,” people would be sufficiently terrorized that all crime would cease. This is one part of a broader vision Trump has always had, in which America is saturated in threats and violence, which must in turn be met with even more threats and violence, from both the government and vigilantes, against those he and his supporters despise. Targeting Trump’s enemies for threats and violence is now woven deeply into his movement; if he singles you out, you can expect to live in fear, and the collateral damage is wide. We need look no farther than Springfield, Ohio, a city full of his running mate JD Vance’s constituents. After the two running mates began telling repugnant lies about Haitian immigrants there supposedly eating pets, the town was deluged with bomb threats, leading to school closures and evacuations.The lesson Trump seems to have taken from previous elections is that fear and hate are political winners.One local business owner, a Republican who voted twice for Trump, said publicly that the 10% of his employees who are Haitian immigrants are excellent and conscientious workers. In response, reported The New York Times, he faced “death threats, a lockdown at his company and posters around town branding him a traitor for hiring immigrants.”That series of events has become so common we no longer see it as remarkable: obviously if Trump targets you, or even if you’re an ordinary person who contradicts him publicly, your life will be upended with threats and harassment. Where do they get the idea that that’s how they should treat their political opponents? It’s no mystery.The stakes in this election, Trump tells them, are not merely consequential but positively apocalyptic. “If Kamala is re-elected, your town, and every town just like it,” he says, “will be transformed into a third-world hellhole,” with all the attendant rape, murder and throat-cutting. If you believed that was true, wouldn’t violence be a reasonable response?The lesson Trump seems to have taken from previous elections is that fear and hate are political winners, and the only thing he did wrong in 2016 and 2020 was to be too restrained in fomenting both. Five weeks remain until the election, and we have every reason to believe Trump will be “real rough,” as he puts it, every day between now and then.

What I find curious is for the first time in 8 years he can't find a nickname for his opponent. Crooked Hillary, Sleepy Joe, Low energy Jeb.
It's driving him batshit crazy that he can't find one.

I was just thinking how everywhere he goes there’s an incident of him offending someone, getting into an altercation, saying something incendiary, breaking laws, arranging or speaking on behalf of the United States, and to be honest I think we are near flat out inciting or using very heavy coding for it at least. He is getting dangerous but more than we have always expected.

As the poll numbers show Harris getting leads in key areas, and many of these leads have been expanding over time, Trump knows what's next for him. First, he'll likely lose the election. Then shortly after, his criminal trials will resume. Every day will be having to show up to court to answer to whatever criminal trial happens to be in session, worrying that his shitty attorneys are actually doing their job properly (they aren't).
In Trump's mind, he HAS to convince the American public that they NEED him in the White House, but nothing seems to be sticking. "THEY'RE EATING THE DOGS!" blew up in his face. "Kamala is mentally disabled" is hilarious, in that Trump apparently got his fat ass kicked in a debate by a "mentally disabled" person. Nothing is working for him!
And nowadays, every time they show him he looks angrier and sweatier than the day before. I can't wait until Nov. 5. I recently received a bottle of Glenlivet 12 and we'll be either celebrating or drowning our sorrows.

His opponents’ rhetoric, they said, is so inflammatory that it was bound to incite violence. “Everybody’s rhetoric just needs to change,” said Eric Trump. It was time to “turn the temperature down in this country,” said House Speaker Mike Johnson. When two months later an armed man laying in wait at Trump’s golf course was confronted by the Secret Service, JD Vance said “the left needs to tone down the rhetoric, and needs to cut this crap out.” The would-be shooter, said Trump himself, “believed the rhetoric of [President Joe] Biden and [Vice President Kamala] Harris, and he acted on it.” Yet after these appeals for a calmer political debate, with each passing week Trump is turning the rhetoric up. It’s difficult to tell if Trump believes this is a clever strategy or if, as the election nears, he is simply becoming less restrained, revealing his purest impulses in all their odiousness. Whatever the reason, his most recent rallies reveal a candidate seemingly intent on being more provocative, more angry, more hateful, and more supportive of violence than ever before.Targeting Trump’s enemies for threats and violence is now woven deeply into his movement.Over the weekend, the former president’s attacks on Vice President and Democratic nominee Kamala Harris became even more unhinged. At a rally in Wisconsin, Trump called her “a very dumb person,” claimed she was “mentally impaired” and that she “was born that way.” Even by his standards, it was a remarkably lurid attack on the competence of an opponent who soundly defeated him in the recent debate.Similarly, while it’s true that Trump has long fantasized about violence that might be committed against criminals, immigrants or his political foes (“I’d like to punch him in the face,” he said about a protester in 2016), lately his rhetoric has gotten even more intense. In the same Wisconsin rally, for instance, his usual description of immigrants as murderers included this vivid description: “They make our criminals look like babies. These are stone-cold killers. They’ll walk into your kitchen, they’ll cut your throat.” Of course, this is the fault of Kamala Harris, who is “letting in people who will walk into your house,” he said. “They’ll do anything they want. These people are animals.”At another rally the next day, Trump presented a new solution to all crime: more violence. “If you had one really violent day,” he said, the problem would be solved. “One rough hour — and I mean real rough — the word will get out and it will end immediately.” While some social media users likened this suggestion to “The Purge,” the movie series in which all crime is legalized for one day per year, Trump in fact was talking about government violence directed at members of the public, without any constraints of civil liberties and laws. If only we could unleash law enforcement for “one really violent day,” people would be sufficiently terrorized that all crime would cease. This is one part of a broader vision Trump has always had, in which America is saturated in threats and violence, which must in turn be met with even more threats and violence, from both the government and vigilantes, against those he and his supporters despise. Targeting Trump’s enemies for threats and violence is now woven deeply into his movement; if he singles you out, you can expect to live in fear, and the collateral damage is wide. We need look no farther than Springfield, Ohio, a city full of his running mate JD Vance’s constituents. After the two running mates began telling repugnant lies about Haitian immigrants there supposedly eating pets, the town was deluged with bomb threats, leading to school closures and evacuations.The lesson Trump seems to have taken from previous elections is that fear and hate are political winners.One local business owner, a Republican who voted twice for Trump, said publicly that the 10% of his employees who are Haitian immigrants are excellent and conscientious workers. In response, reported The New York Times, he faced “death threats, a lockdown at his company and posters around town branding him a traitor for hiring immigrants.”That series of events has become so common we no longer see it as remarkable: obviously if Trump targets you, or even if you’re an ordinary person who contradicts him publicly, your life will be upended with threats and harassment. Where do they get the idea that that’s how they should treat their political opponents? It’s no mystery.The stakes in this election, Trump tells them, are not merely consequential but positively apocalyptic. “If Kamala is re-elected, your town, and every town just like it,” he says, “will be transformed into a third-world hellhole,” with all the attendant rape, murder and throat-cutting. If you believed that was true, wouldn’t violence be a reasonable response?The lesson Trump seems to have taken from previous elections is that fear and hate are political winners, and the only thing he did wrong in 2016 and 2020 was to be too restrained in fomenting both. Five weeks remain until the election, and we have every reason to believe Trump will be “real rough,” as he puts it, every day between now and then. If all his rhetoric produces is the lusty cheers of a base that thrills to the prospect of violence — and is told that they have a part to play in meting it out — we should count ourselves lucky.Paul WaldmanPaul Waldman is a journalist and author whose writing has appeared in dozens of publications.

It’s difficult to tell if Trump believes this is a clever strategy or if, as the election nears, he is simply becoming less restrained, revealing his purest impulses in all their odiousness. Whatever the reason, his most recent rallies reveal a candidate seemingly intent on being more provocative, more angry, more hateful, and more supportive of violence than ever before.Targeting Trump’s enemies for threats and violence is now woven deeply into his movement.Over the weekend, the former president’s attacks on Vice President and Democratic nominee Kamala Harris became even more unhinged. At a rally in Wisconsin, Trump called her “a very dumb person,” claimed she was “mentally impaired” and that she “was born that way.” Even by his standards, it was a remarkably lurid attack on the competence of an opponent who soundly defeated him in the recent debate.Similarly, while it’s true that Trump has long fantasized about violence that might be committed against criminals, immigrants or his political foes (“I’d like to punch him in the face,” he said about a protester in 2016), lately his rhetoric has gotten even more intense. In the same Wisconsin rally, for instance, his usual description of immigrants as murderers included this vivid description: “They make our criminals look like babies. These are stone-cold killers. They’ll walk into your kitchen, they’ll cut your throat.” Of course, this is the fault of Kamala Harris, who is “letting in people who will walk into your house,” he said. “They’ll do anything they want. These people are animals.”At another rally the next day, Trump presented a new solution to all crime: more violence. “If you had one really violent day,” he said, the problem would be solved. “One rough hour — and I mean real rough — the word will get out and it will end immediately.” While some social media users likened this suggestion to “The Purge,” the movie series in which all crime is legalized for one day per year, Trump in fact was talking about government violence directed at members of the public, without any constraints of civil liberties and laws. If only we could unleash law enforcement for “one really violent day,” people would be sufficiently terrorized that all crime would cease. This is one part of a broader vision Trump has always had, in which America is saturated in threats and violence, which must in turn be met with even more threats and violence, from both the government and vigilantes, against those he and his supporters despise. Targeting Trump’s enemies for threats and violence is now woven deeply into his movement; if he singles you out, you can expect to live in fear, and the collateral damage is wide. We need look no farther than Springfield, Ohio, a city full of his running mate JD Vance’s constituents. After the two running mates began telling repugnant lies about Haitian immigrants there supposedly eating pets, the town was deluged with bomb threats, leading to school closures and evacuations.The lesson Trump seems to have taken from previous elections is that fear and hate are political winners.One local business owner, a Republican who voted twice for Trump, said publicly that the 10% of his employees who are Haitian immigrants are excellent and conscientious workers. In response, reported The New York Times, he faced “death threats, a lockdown at his company and posters around town branding him a traitor for hiring immigrants.”That series of events has become so common we no longer see it as remarkable: obviously if Trump targets you, or even if you’re an ordinary person who contradicts him publicly, your life will be upended with threats and harassment. Where do they get the idea that that’s how they should treat their political opponents? It’s no mystery.The stakes in this election, Trump tells them, are not merely consequential but positively apocalyptic. “If Kamala is re-elected, your town, and every town just like it,” he says, “will be transformed into a third-world hellhole,” with all the attendant rape, murder and throat-cutting. If you believed that was true, wouldn’t violence be a reasonable response?The lesson Trump seems to have taken from previous elections is that fear and hate are political winners, and the only thing he did wrong in 2016 and 2020 was to be too restrained in fomenting both. Five weeks remain until the election, and we have every reason to believe Trump will be “real rough,” as he puts it, every day between now and then. If all his rhetoric produces is the lusty cheers of a base that thrills to the prospect of violence — and is told that they have a part to play in meting it out — we should count ourselves lucky.Paul WaldmanPaul Waldman is a journalist and author whose writing has appeared in dozens of publications.

But people still listen to him. I was talking with my mom over the weekend. She lives up north and I’m in Texas. She brought up politics, and then she started talking about immigrants and the border. I told her that it’s not an issue, I’m in Texas and there isn’t a problem. Then she brought up social security, and thinks he will protect her SS. She still doesn’t believe me. She’s slightly older than Trump, and a lot of her generation believes his BS.

These people are animals.”At another rally the next day, Trump presented a new solution to all crime: more violence. “If you had one really violent day,” he said, the problem would be solved. “One rough hour — and I mean real rough — the word will get out and it will end immediately.” While some social media users likened this suggestion to “The Purge,” the movie series in which all crime is legalized for one day per year, Trump in fact was talking about government violence directed at members of the public, without any constraints of civil liberties and laws. If only we could unleash law enforcement for “one really violent day,” people would be sufficiently terrorized that all crime would cease. This is one part of a broader vision Trump has always had, in which America is saturated in threats and violence, which must in turn be met with even more threats and violence, from both the government and vigilantes, against those he and his supporters despise. Targeting Trump’s enemies for threats and violence is now woven deeply into his movement; if he singles you out, you can expect to live in fear, and the collateral damage is wide. We need look no farther than Springfield, Ohio, a city full of his running mate JD Vance’s constituents. After the two running mates began telling repugnant lies about Haitian immigrants there supposedly eating pets, the town was deluged with bomb threats, leading to school closures and evacuations.The lesson Trump seems to have taken from previous elections is that fear and hate are political winners.One local business owner, a Republican who voted twice for Trump, said publicly that the 10% of his employees who are Haitian immigrants are excellent and conscientious workers. In response, reported The New York Times, he faced “death threats, a lockdown at his company and posters around town branding him a traitor for hiring immigrants.”That series of events has become so common we no longer see it as remarkable: obviously if Trump targets you, or even if you’re an ordinary person who contradicts him publicly, your life will be upended with threats and harassment. Where do they get the idea that that’s how they should treat their political opponents? It’s no mystery.The stakes in this election, Trump tells them, are not merely consequential but positively apocalyptic. “If Kamala is re-elected, your town, and every town just like it,” he says, “will be transformed into a third-world hellhole,” with all the attendant rape, murder and throat-cutting. If you believed that was true, wouldn’t violence be a reasonable response?The lesson Trump seems to have taken from previous elections is that fear and hate are political winners, and the only thing he did wrong in 2016 and 2020 was to be too restrained in fomenting both. Five weeks remain until the election, and we have every reason to believe Trump will be “real rough,” as he puts it, every day between now and then.

Who is surprised by this? As Drumpf‘s chances to actually win the election wane as more people wake up out of their stupor, he more and more fears he’s going to spend the end of his life in jail and the only way to stay out of prison is taking power any way possible.

His opponents’ rhetoric, they said, is so inflammatory that it was bound to incite violence. “Everybody’s rhetoric just needs to change,” said Eric Trump. It was time to “turn the temperature down in this country,” said House Speaker Mike Johnson. When two months later an armed man laying in wait at Trump’s golf course was confronted by the Secret Service, JD Vance said “the left needs to tone down the rhetoric, and needs to cut this crap out.” The would-be shooter, said Trump himself, “believed the rhetoric of [President Joe] Biden and [Vice President Kamala] Harris, and he acted on it.” Yet after these appeals for a calmer political debate, with each passing week Trump is turning the rhetoric up. It’s difficult to tell if Trump believes this is a clever strategy or if, as the election nears, he is simply becoming less restrained, revealing his purest impulses in all their odiousness. Whatever the reason, his most recent rallies reveal a candidate seemingly intent on being more provocative, more angry, more hateful, and more supportive of violence than ever before.Targeting Trump’s enemies for threats and violence is now woven deeply into his movement.Over the weekend, the former president’s attacks on Vice President and Democratic nominee Kamala Harris became even more unhinged. At a rally in Wisconsin, Trump called her “a very dumb person,” claimed she was “mentally impaired” and that she “was born that way.” Even by his standards, it was a remarkably lurid attack on the competence of an opponent who soundly defeated him in the recent debate.Similarly, while it’s true that Trump has long fantasized about violence that might be committed against criminals, immigrants or his political foes (“I’d like to punch him in the face,” he said about a protester in 2016), lately his rhetoric has gotten even more intense. In the same Wisconsin rally, for instance, his usual description of immigrants as murderers included this vivid description: “They make our criminals look like babies. These are stone-cold killers.

His opponents’ rhetoric, they said, is so inflammatory that it was bound to incite violence. “Everybody’s rhetoric just needs to change,” said Eric Trump. It was time to “turn the temperature down in this country,” said House Speaker Mike Johnson. When two months later an armed man laying in wait at Trump’s golf course was confronted by the Secret Service, JD Vance said “the left needs to tone down the rhetoric, and needs to cut this crap out.” The would-be shooter, said Trump himself, “believed the rhetoric of [President Joe] Biden and [Vice President Kamala] Harris, and he acted on it.” Yet after these appeals for a calmer political debate, with each passing week Trump is turning the rhetoric up. It’s difficult to tell if Trump believes this is a clever strategy or if, as the election nears, he is simply becoming less restrained, revealing his purest impulses in all their odiousness. Whatever the reason, his most recent rallies reveal a candidate seemingly intent on being more provocative, more angry, more hateful, and more supportive of violence than ever before.Targeting Trump’s enemies for threats and violence is now woven deeply into his movement.Over the weekend, the former president’s attacks on Vice President and Democratic nominee Kamala Harris became even more unhinged. At a rally in Wisconsin, Trump called her “a very dumb person,” claimed she was “mentally impaired” and that she “was born that way.” Even by his standards, it was a remarkably lurid attack on the competence of an opponent who soundly defeated him in the recent debate.Similarly, while it’s true that Trump has long fantasized about violence that might be committed against criminals, immigrants or his political foes (“I’d like to punch him in the face,” he said about a protester in 2016), lately his rhetoric has gotten even more intense. In the same Wisconsin rally, for instance, his usual description of immigrants as murderers included this vivid description: “They make our criminals look like babies. These are stone-cold killers. They’ll walk into your kitchen, they’ll cut your throat.” Of course, this is the fault of Kamala Harris, who is “letting in people who will walk into your house,” he said. “They’ll do anything they want. These people are animals.”At another rally the next day, Trump presented a new solution to all crime: more violence. “If you had one really violent day,” he said, the problem would be solved. “One rough hour — and I mean real rough — the word will get out and it will end immediately.” While some social media users likened this suggestion to “The Purge,” the movie series in which all crime is legalized for one day per year, Trump in fact was talking about government violence directed at members of the public, without any constraints of civil liberties and laws. If only we could unleash law enforcement for “one really violent day,” people would be sufficiently terrorized that all crime would cease. This is one part of a broader vision Trump has always had, in which America is saturated in threats and violence, which must in turn be met with even more threats and violence, from both the government and vigilantes, against those he and his supporters despise. Targeting Trump’s enemies for threats and violence is now woven deeply into his movement; if he singles you out, you can expect to live in fear, and the collateral damage is wide. We need look no farther than Springfield, Ohio, a city full of his running mate JD Vance’s constituents. After the two running mates began telling repugnant lies about Haitian immigrants there supposedly eating pets, the town was deluged with bomb threats, leading to school closures and evacuations.The lesson Trump seems to have taken from previous elections is that fear and hate are political winners.One local business owner, a Republican who voted twice for Trump, said publicly that the 10% of his employees who are Haitian immigrants are excellent and conscientious workers. In response, reported The New York Times, he faced “death threats, a lockdown at his company and posters around town branding him a traitor for hiring immigrants.”That series of events has become so common we no longer see it as remarkable: obviously if Trump targets you, or even if you’re an ordinary person who contradicts him publicly, your life will be upended with threats and harassment. Where do they get the idea that that’s how they should treat their political opponents? It’s no mystery.The stakes in this election, Trump tells them, are not merely consequential but positively apocalyptic. “If Kamala is re-elected, your town, and every town just like it,” he says, “will be transformed into a third-world hellhole,” with all the attendant rape, murder and throat-cutting.

I don’t get it. Trump’s wife is an Eastern European with an accent, Mitch McConnell’s wife is Asian, Vance’s wife is Indian. Yet the MAGA “othering” is so prevalent. Hypocrisy all over.

White House press secretary Karine Jean-Pierre was pressed by Fox News' senior White House correspondent Peter Doocy on the news that tens of thousands of illegal immigrants in the U.S. have serious criminal records. Jean-Pierre responded to the line of questioning about the Border Patrol numbers by claiming it was a "false representation of the data." Doocy said, "13,000 people who have been convicted of murder across the border illegally and are living among us. So how much danger are U.S. communities in right now?" "I think it's important to correct the record here," she responded. "It's been fact-checked by some of your colleagues here, by multiple outlets. That has been debunked on what has been falsely misrepresented, misrepresented here. So we have to call that out." OHIO RESIDENTS IN SMALL TOWN ERUPT OVER HAVOC CAUSED BY MASSIVE INFLUX OF 20,000 OF HAITIANS White House press secretary Karine Jean-Pierre addressed data that 13,000 noncitizens facing deportations have homicide convictions. (Fox News Digital) Doocy responded, "Can you clarify what the misrepresentation is?" Jean-Pierre responded, "If we're going to report something, data that's out there, we got to do it in a way that is not confusing the American people and certainly not lying." "If you look at the total returns and removal of the past year, that has been higher than every year under the previous administration since 2010," she said, reiterating claims the story has been fact-checked and falsely represented. EXPERTS WARN DHS EQUITY PUSH HAS MADE THE COUNTRY LESS SAFE: 'LITERALLY A ROAD TO ANARCHY' New data released to Republican lawmakers showed the number of noncitizens who have final orders of removal or are going through removal proceedings but are not in ICE custody. Out of 7.4 million people on that docket, 425,431 are convicted criminals and 222,141 have pending criminal charges. The border wall has yet to be completed in Arizona. (Adam Shaw/Fox News Digital)CLICK HERE TO GET THE FOX NEWS APPIn the latest data, the criminal records included 62,231 convicted of assault, 14,301 convicted of burglary, 56,533 with drug convictions and 13,099 convicted of homicide. An additional 2,521 have kidnapping convictions, and 15,811 have sexual assault convictions. There are an additional 1,845 with pending homicide charges, 42,915 with assault charges, 3,266 with burglary charges and 4,250 with assault charges. The Department of Homeland Security released a statement pushing back on the figures, stating, "[The data] includes individuals who entered the country over the past 40 years or more... It also includes many who are under the jurisdiction or currently incarcerated by federal, state or local law enforcement partners." Fox News' Adam Shaw contributed to this report.

September 30, 2024 8:00pm EDT Facebook Twitter Flipboard Comments Print Email close Video White House pressed on ICE data about criminal noncitizens in the US Fox News White House senior correspondent Peter Doocy asks the press secretary about the convicted murderers on the loose Monday. White House press secretary Karine Jean-Pierre was pressed by Fox News' senior White House correspondent Peter Doocy on the news that tens of thousands of illegal immigrants in the U.S. have serious criminal records. Jean-Pierre responded to the line of questioning about the Border Patrol numbers by claiming it was a "false representation of the data." Doocy said, "13,000 people who have been convicted of murder across the border illegally and are living among us. So how much danger are U.S. communities in right now?" "I think it's important to correct the record here," she responded. "It's been fact-checked by some of your colleagues here, by multiple outlets. That has been debunked on what has been falsely misrepresented, misrepresented here. So we have to call that out." OHIO RESIDENTS IN SMALL TOWN ERUPT OVER HAVOC CAUSED BY MASSIVE INFLUX OF 20,000 OF HAITIANS White House press secretary Karine Jean-Pierre addressed data that 13,000 noncitizens facing deportations have homicide convictions. (Fox News Digital) Doocy responded, "Can you clarify what the misrepresentation is?" Jean-Pierre responded, "If we're going to report something, data that's out there, we got to do it in a way that is not confusing the American people and certainly not lying." "If you look at the total returns and removal of the past year, that has been higher than every year under the previous administration since 2010," she said, reiterating claims the story has been fact-checked and falsely represented. EXPERTS WARN DHS EQUITY PUSH HAS MADE THE COUNTRY LESS SAFE: 'LITERALLY A ROAD TO ANARCHY' New data released to Republican lawmakers showed the number of noncitizens who have final orders of removal or are going through removal proceedings but are not in ICE custody. Out of 7.4 million people on that docket, 425,431 are convicted criminals and 222,141 have pending criminal charges. The border wall has yet to be completed in Arizona. (Adam Shaw/Fox News Digital)CLICK HERE TO GET THE FOX NEWS APPIn the latest data, the criminal records included 62,231 convicted of assault, 14,301 convicted of burglary, 56,533 with drug convictions and 13,099 convicted of homicide. An additional 2,521 have kidnapping convictions, and 15,811 have sexual assault convictions. There are an additional 1,845 with pending homicide charges, 42,915 with assault charges, 3,266 with burglary charges and 4,250 with assault charges. The Department of Homeland Security released a statement pushing back on the figures, stating, "[The data] includes individuals who entered the country over the past 40 years or more... It also includes many who are under the jurisdiction or currently incarcerated by federal, state or local law enforcement partners." Fox News' Adam Shaw contributed to this report.

********
The department also stressed what it has done to deport those without the right to stay in America, saying it had removed or returned more than 700,000 people in the past year, which it said was the highest number since 2010. Homeland Security said it had removed 180,000 people with criminal convictions since President Joe Biden took office.
A 2017 report by Homeland Security’s Office of Inspector General says that as of August 2016, ICE had about 368,574 people on its non-detained docket who were convicted criminals. By June 2021, shortly after Trump left office, that number was up to 405,786.
Can’t ICE just deport criminals?
ICE has limited resources. The number of people it supervises has skyrocketed, while its staffing has not. As the agency noted in a 2023 end-of-year report, it often has to send staff to help at the border, taking them away from their normal duties.
The number of people ICE supervises but who aren’t in its custody has grown from 3.3 million a little before Biden took office to a little over 7 million last spring.
“The simple answer is that as a system, we haven’t devoted enough resources to the parts of the government that deal with monitoring and ultimately removing people who are deportable,” Meissner said.
ICE also has logistical and legal limits on who they can hold. Its budget allows the agency to hold 41,500 people at a time. John Sandweg, who was acting ICE director from 2013 to 2014 under then-President Barack Obama, said holding people accused or convicted of the most serious crimes is always the top priority.
But once someone has a final order of removal — meaning a court has found that they don’t have the right to stay in the country — they cannot be held in detention forever while ICE works out how to get them home. A 2001 Supreme Court ruling essentially prevented ICE from holding those people for more than six months if there is no reasonable chance to expect they can be sent back.
Not every country is willing to take back their citizens, Sandweg said.
He said he suspects that a large number of those convicted of homicide but not held by ICE are people who were ordered deported but the agency can’t remove them because their home country won’t take them back.
“It’s a very common scenario. Even amongst the countries that take people back, they can be very selective about who they take back,” he said.
The U.S. also could run into problems deporting people to countries with which it has tepid relations.
Homeland Security did not respond to questions about how many countries won’t take back their citizens. The 2017 watchdog report put the number at 23 countries, plus an additional 62 that were cooperative but where there were delays getting things like passports or travel documents.

White House press secretary Karine Jean-Pierre was pressed by Fox News' senior White House correspondent Peter Doocy on the news that tens of thousands of illegal immigrants in the U.S. have serious criminal records. Jean-Pierre responded to the line of questioning about the Border Patrol numbers by claiming it was a "false representation of the data." Doocy said, "13,000 people who have been convicted of murder across the border illegally and are living among us. So how much danger are U.S. communities in right now?" "I think it's important to correct the record here," she responded. "It's been fact-checked by some of your colleagues here, by multiple outlets. That has been debunked on what has been falsely misrepresented, misrepresented here. So we have to call that out." OHIO RESIDENTS IN SMALL TOWN ERUPT OVER HAVOC CAUSED BY MASSIVE INFLUX OF 20,000 OF HAITIANS White House press secretary Karine Jean-Pierre addressed data that 13,000 noncitizens facing deportations have homicide convictions.

Jean-Pierre responded, "If we're going to report something, data that's out there, we got to do it in a way that is not confusing the American people and certainly not lying." "If you look at the total returns and removal of the past year, that has been higher than every year under the previous administration since 2010," she said, reiterating claims the story has been fact-checked and falsely represented. EXPERTS WARN DHS EQUITY PUSH HAS MADE THE COUNTRY LESS SAFE: 'LITERALLY A ROAD TO ANARCHY' New data released to Republican lawmakers showed the number of noncitizens who have final orders of removal or are going through removal proceedings but are not in ICE custody.

As a [publication with their collective head bent right up their ass](https://mediabiasfactcheck.com/fox-news-bias/), Fox News does not care that this matter has been repeatedly fact checked. All they care about is lying to voters so they will vote for a Convicted Felon who lies about this data.
>It’s true that there were 13,099 noncitizens convicted of murder, as of July 21, who were not being detained by the U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement.
>But the “vast majority” of them entered the country prior to the Biden administration and had their custody status determined “long before this Administration,” the Department of Homeland Security said in a statement, noting that many were in prison. Also, the noncitizens include those who entered the country legally, such as green-card holders.
>Trump and Vance distorted the contents of a Sept. 25 letter that [Patrick Lechleitner](https://www.ice.gov/leadership), the acting director of ICE, sent to [Rep. Tony Gonzales](https://gonzales.house.gov/2024/9/rep-tony-gonzales-confirms-over-662-000-noncitizens-with-criminal-histories-released-in-u-s-communities). The Republican congressman had requested the number of noncitizens who had committed a crime but were not in ICE custody — a list known as the agency’s non-detained docket.
>Lechleitner’s response included a chart that showed there are 13,099 noncitizens convicted of murder who were not being detained by ICE. Homeland Security later clarified in its statement that “many” are in prisons, although it did not tell us how many are incarcerated when we inquired.

September 30, 2024 8:00pm EDT Facebook Twitter Flipboard Comments Print Email close Video White House pressed on ICE data about criminal noncitizens in the US Fox News White House senior correspondent Peter Doocy asks the press secretary about the convicted murderers on the loose Monday. White House press secretary Karine Jean-Pierre was pressed by Fox News' senior White House correspondent Peter Doocy on the news that tens of thousands of illegal immigrants in the U.S. have serious criminal records. Jean-Pierre responded to the line of questioning about the Border Patrol numbers by claiming it was a "false representation of the data." Doocy said, "13,000 people who have been convicted of murder across the border illegally and are living among us. So how much danger are U.S. communities in right now?" "I think it's important to correct the record here," she responded. "It's been fact-checked by some of your colleagues here, by multiple outlets. That has been debunked on what has been falsely misrepresented, misrepresented here. So we have to call that out." OHIO RESIDENTS IN SMALL TOWN ERUPT OVER HAVOC CAUSED BY MASSIVE INFLUX OF 20,000 OF HAITIANS White House press secretary Karine Jean-Pierre addressed data that 13,000 noncitizens facing deportations have homicide convictions. (Fox News Digital) Doocy responded, "Can you clarify what the misrepresentation is?" Jean-Pierre responded, "If we're going to report something, data that's out there, we got to do it in a way that is not confusing the American people and certainly not lying." "If you look at the total returns and removal of the past year, that has been higher than every year under the previous administration since 2010," she said, reiterating claims the story has been fact-checked and falsely represented. EXPERTS WARN DHS EQUITY PUSH HAS MADE THE COUNTRY LESS SAFE: 'LITERALLY A ROAD TO ANARCHY' New data released to Republican lawmakers showed the number of noncitizens who have final orders of removal or are going through removal proceedings but are not in ICE custody. Out of 7.4 million people on that docket, 425,431 are convicted criminals and 222,141 have pending criminal charges. The border wall has yet to be completed in Arizona. (Adam Shaw/Fox News Digital)CLICK HERE TO GET THE FOX NEWS APPIn the latest data, the criminal records included 62,231 convicted of assault, 14,301 convicted of burglary, 56,533 with drug convictions and 13,099 convicted of homicide. An additional 2,521 have kidnapping convictions, and 15,811 have sexual assault convictions. There are an additional 1,845 with pending homicide charges, 42,915 with assault charges, 3,266 with burglary charges and 4,250 with assault charges. The Department of Homeland Security released a statement pushing back on the figures, stating, "[The data] includes individuals who entered the country over the past 40 years or more... It also includes many who are under the jurisdiction or currently incarcerated by federal, state or local law enforcement partners." Fox News' Adam Shaw contributed to this report.

September 30, 2024 8:00pm EDT Facebook Twitter Flipboard Comments Print Email close Video White House pressed on ICE data about criminal noncitizens in the US Fox News White House senior correspondent Peter Doocy asks the press secretary about the convicted murderers on the loose Monday. White House press secretary Karine Jean-Pierre was pressed by Fox News' senior White House correspondent Peter Doocy on the news that tens of thousands of illegal immigrants in the U.S. have serious criminal records. Jean-Pierre responded to the line of questioning about the Border Patrol numbers by claiming it was a "false representation of the data." Doocy said, "13,000 people who have been convicted of murder across the border illegally and are living among us. So how much danger are U.S. communities in right now?" "I think it's important to correct the record here," she responded. "It's been fact-checked by some of your colleagues here, by multiple outlets. That has been debunked on what has been falsely misrepresented, misrepresented here. So we have to call that out." OHIO RESIDENTS IN SMALL TOWN ERUPT OVER HAVOC CAUSED BY MASSIVE INFLUX OF 20,000 OF HAITIANS White House press secretary Karine Jean-Pierre addressed data that 13,000 noncitizens facing deportations have homicide convictions. (Fox News Digital) Doocy responded, "Can you clarify what the misrepresentation is?" Jean-Pierre responded, "If we're going to report something, data that's out there, we got to do it in a way that is not confusing the American people and certainly not lying." "If you look at the total returns and removal of the past year, that has been higher than every year under the previous administration since 2010," she said, reiterating claims the story has been fact-checked and falsely represented. EXPERTS WARN DHS EQUITY PUSH HAS MADE THE COUNTRY LESS SAFE: 'LITERALLY A ROAD TO ANARCHY' New data released to Republican lawmakers showed the number of noncitizens who have final orders of removal or are going through removal proceedings but are not in ICE custody. Out of 7.4 million people on that docket, 425,431 are convicted criminals and 222,141 have pending criminal charges. The border wall has yet to be completed in Arizona. (Adam Shaw/Fox News Digital)CLICK HERE TO GET THE FOX NEWS APPIn the latest data, the criminal records included 62,231 convicted of assault, 14,301 convicted of burglary, 56,533 with drug convictions and 13,099 convicted of homicide. An additional 2,521 have kidnapping convictions, and 15,811 have sexual assault convictions. There are an additional 1,845 with pending homicide charges, 42,915 with assault charges, 3,266 with burglary charges and 4,250 with assault charges. The Department of Homeland Security released a statement pushing back on the figures, stating, "[The data] includes individuals who entered the country over the past 40 years or more... It also includes many who are under the jurisdiction or currently incarcerated by federal, state or local law enforcement partners." Fox News' Adam Shaw contributed to this report.

The Bipartisan Border Security Measure was introduced on February 5, 2024, by Senators James Lankford (R-OK), Chris Murphy (D-CT), and Kyrsten Sinema (I-AZ).
The bill aimed to enhance border security and streamline asylum processes but was ultimately voted against by Senate Republicans, influenced by opposition from former President Trump
~
The Bipartisan Border Security Measure included the following key tenets:
1. Enhanced funding for border security.
2. Improved processing times for asylum seekers.
3. Emergency authority for the president to shut down the border in case of surges in unauthorized crossings.
4. Better standards for asylum application evaluations.
5. Measures to streamline the deportation process for those ineligible for asylum.

Jean-Pierre responded, "If we're going to report something, data that's out there, we got to do it in a way that is not confusing the American people and certainly not lying." "If you look at the total returns and removal of the past year, that has been higher than every year under the previous administration since 2010," she said, reiterating claims the story has been fact-checked and falsely represented. EXPERTS WARN DHS EQUITY PUSH HAS MADE THE COUNTRY LESS SAFE: 'LITERALLY A ROAD TO ANARCHY' New data released to Republican lawmakers showed the number of noncitizens who have final orders of removal or are going through removal proceedings but are not in ICE custody. Out of 7.4 million people on that docket, 425,431 are convicted criminals and 222,141 have pending criminal charges. The border wall has yet to be completed in Arizona. (Adam Shaw/Fox News Digital)CLICK HERE TO GET THE FOX NEWS APPIn the latest data, the criminal records included 62,231 convicted of assault, 14,301 convicted of burglary, 56,533 with drug convictions and 13,099 convicted of homicide. An additional 2,521 have kidnapping convictions, and 15,811 have sexual assault convictions. There are an additional 1,845 with pending homicide charges, 42,915 with assault charges, 3,266 with burglary charges and 4,250 with assault charges. The Department of Homeland Security released a statement pushing back on the figures, stating, "[The data] includes individuals who entered the country over the past 40 years or more... It also includes many who are under the jurisdiction or currently incarcerated by federal, state or local law enforcement partners." Fox News' Adam Shaw contributed to this report.

White House press secretary Karine Jean-Pierre was pressed by Fox News' senior White House correspondent Peter Doocy on the news that tens of thousands of illegal immigrants in the U.S. have serious criminal records. Jean-Pierre responded to the line of questioning about the Border Patrol numbers by claiming it was a "false representation of the data." Doocy said, "13,000 people who have been convicted of murder across the border illegally and are living among us. So how much danger are U.S. communities in right now?" "I think it's important to correct the record here," she responded. "It's been fact-checked by some of your colleagues here, by multiple outlets. That has been debunked on what has been falsely misrepresented, misrepresented here. So we have to call that out."

White House press secretary Karine Jean-Pierre was pressed by Fox News' senior White House correspondent Peter Doocy on the news that tens of thousands of illegal immigrants in the U.S. have serious criminal records. Jean-Pierre responded to the line of questioning about the Border Patrol numbers by claiming it was a "false representation of the data." Doocy said, "13,000 people who have been convicted of murder across the border illegally and are living among us. So how much danger are U.S. communities in right now?" "I think it's important to correct the record here," she responded. "It's been fact-checked by some of your colleagues here, by multiple outlets. That has been debunked on what has been falsely misrepresented, misrepresented here. So we have to call that out." OHIO RESIDENTS IN SMALL TOWN ERUPT OVER HAVOC CAUSED BY MASSIVE INFLUX OF 20,000 OF HAITIANS White House press secretary Karine Jean-Pierre addressed data that 13,000 noncitizens facing deportations have homicide convictions.

Jean-Pierre responded, "If we're going to report something, data that's out there, we got to do it in a way that is not confusing the American people and certainly not lying." "If you look at the total returns and removal of the past year, that has been higher than every year under the previous administration since 2010," she said, reiterating claims the story has been fact-checked and falsely represented. EXPERTS WARN DHS EQUITY PUSH HAS MADE THE COUNTRY LESS SAFE: 'LITERALLY A ROAD TO ANARCHY' New data released to Republican lawmakers showed the number of noncitizens who have final orders of removal or are going through removal proceedings but are not in ICE custody.

White House press secretary Karine Jean-Pierre was pressed by Fox News' senior White House correspondent Peter Doocy on the news that tens of thousands of illegal immigrants in the U.S. have serious criminal records. Jean-Pierre responded to the line of questioning about the Border Patrol numbers by claiming it was a "false representation of the data." Doocy said, "13,000 people who have been convicted of murder across the border illegally and are living among us. So how much danger are U.S. communities in right now?" "I think it's important to correct the record here," she responded. "It's been fact-checked by some of your colleagues here, by multiple outlets. That has been debunked on what has been falsely misrepresented, misrepresented here. So we have to call that out." OHIO RESIDENTS IN SMALL TOWN ERUPT OVER HAVOC CAUSED BY MASSIVE INFLUX OF 20,000 OF HAITIANS White House press secretary Karine Jean-Pierre addressed data that 13,000 noncitizens facing deportations have homicide convictions. (Fox News Digital) Doocy responded, "Can you clarify what the misrepresentation is?" Jean-Pierre responded, "If we're going to report something, data that's out there, we got to do it in a way that is not confusing the American people and certainly not lying." "If you look at the total returns and removal of the past year, that has been higher than every year under the previous administration since 2010," she said, reiterating claims the story has been fact-checked and falsely represented. EXPERTS WARN DHS EQUITY PUSH HAS MADE THE COUNTRY LESS SAFE: 'LITERALLY A ROAD TO ANARCHY' New data released to Republican lawmakers showed the number of noncitizens who have final orders of removal or are going through removal proceedings but are not in ICE custody. Out of 7.4 million people on that docket, 425,431 are convicted criminals and 222,141 have pending criminal charges. The border wall has yet to be completed in Arizona. (Adam Shaw/Fox News Digital)CLICK HERE TO GET THE FOX NEWS APPIn the latest data, the criminal records included 62,231 convicted of assault, 14,301 convicted of burglary, 56,533 with drug convictions and 13,099 convicted of homicide. An additional 2,521 have kidnapping convictions, and 15,811 have sexual assault convictions. There are an additional 1,845 with pending homicide charges, 42,915 with assault charges, 3,266 with burglary charges and 4,250 with assault charges. The Department of Homeland Security released a statement pushing back on the figures, stating, "[The data] includes individuals who entered the country over the past 40 years or more... It also includes many who are under the jurisdiction or currently incarcerated by federal, state or local law enforcement partners." Fox News' Adam Shaw contributed to this report.

We have added it to a list of your favorite stories.Show me!SaveShareX (twitter.com)FacebookMailThe warning from the U.S. State Department in June 1989 was stark. It told Americans to stay away from China, citing an “extremely volatile and potentially life-threatening” situation there following the Tiananmen Square massacre. Two months later, even though the department was still discouraging “non-essential” travel to the country, a 25-year-old teacher from Nebraska went there anyway.“I’m somewhat apprehensive, but I’m also excited,” Gov. Tim Walz told a local newspaper before departing for a yearlong teaching appointment in the southern Chinese city of Foshan. “It will be an interesting experience, I’m sure.”That experience sparked in Walz a lifelong fascination with Chinese culture — one he shared with hundreds of high school students on elaborately planned annual trips over the course of a decade and touted proudly when he first entered politics. Walz was so proud of his extensive experience abroad that he occasionally used to exaggerate it. His campaign now acknowledges that Walz’s past claims that he had been to China around 30 times were overstated, and the actual number of trips he’s taken from the United States to China is “closer to 15.”But, now as Minnesota’s governor and the Democratic Party's nominee for vice president, Walz has chosen to emphasize his folksy image as a down-home Midwestern dad and state-championship football coach rather than his history as a peripatetic world traveler. His biography on the Harris-Walz campaign’s official website makes no mention of his extensive international experience. Turn Up Your SupportMPR News helps you turn down the noise and build shared understanding. Turn up your support for this public resource and keep trusted journalism accessible to all. ♡ Donate nowAs vice president, he would have a far bigger foreign policy role than he does now. Since Walz joined the national ticket, APM Reports has interviewed more than a dozen people and combed through business records, government documents, yearbooks and old news clippings in search of a better picture of his experience in China. The reporting — which includes exclusive video obtained by APM Reports of his time in China — paints a picture of a distinctive and often-overlooked part of Walz’s life. Republicans have sought to portray that experience as nefarious. House Oversight and Accountability Chairman James Comer, R-Ky., has demanded the FBI help his committee investigate whether the Chinese Communist Party sought to groom a small-town social studies teacher as part of a shadowy program that “seeks to co-opt influential figures in elite political, cultural, and academic circles to influence the United States to the benefit of the communist regime and the detriment of Americans.”That line of criticism pervades right-wing social media and could very well surface Tuesday, when Walz debates Republican vice presidential nominee JD Vance.“It’s a very misguided reaction,” said Peter Hessler, who has written four books on China and lived there for more than a decade.“American policy has enormous impact on parts of the world that are developing, that have gone through poverty and isolation, and almost none of our leaders have spent much time in those places,” he said. “It's never been seen as a positive of course, I think, because America is a fairly isolationist society in many ways. And people don't understand why this is important, but it is important.”Walz first went to China through WorldTeach, a small nonprofit based at Harvard University that sent American teachers to work in schools overseas. During his year there, Walz has said he made frequent trips to Macau, which was still a Portuguese province and became a semi-autonomous part of China, similar to Hong Kong, in 1999. He also traveled thousands of miles to Tiananmen Square and Tibet, which was restricted at that time.“I'm really quite impressed that he was able to pull that off in 1989 or 1990,” said Evan Dawley, a former China-based field director for WorldTeach. (WorldTeach is now defunct, and its archives at Harvard won’t be open to researchers and journalists until 2039, under a university policy that seals administrative records for at least 50 years.)Sydney Rosen, who co-founded WorldTeach with economist Michael Kremer and served as its first director when Walz was sent to China, said volunteers often ignored her admonition to “stay away from the action … because these were 22-year-olds who thought it was exciting.” It clearly was for Walz, and when he returned to Nebraska a year later to teach social studies in the 10,000-person town of Alliance, he was eager to share the experience with its residents. He gave presentations about his adventures to the local chapters of the Jaycees and the Rotary Club.A screenshot from a video of Tim Walz at the Great Wall of China in 1995.Courtesy of Travis HofmannA cultural exchangeIn 1993, Walz arranged what would be the first in a series of summer trips to China for his students.“Mr. Walz made all the reservations by phone — in Chinese!” Alliance High School student Anne Hjersman wrote in a letter to the editor published in the local paper. Students and teachers who knew him recalled that he spoke at least proficient Mandarin, though he told a reporter in 1990 after he returned from Foshan (where the locals speak Cantonese) that he had “great difficulty” with Mandarin pronunciation. A Chinese New Year greeting he recorded as governor in 2021 includes brief messages in both Mandarin and Cantonese.The trips would not have been possible without Walz’s connections in China. The Guangzhou University’s Physical Education Institute covered in-country costs for at least one of the early trips, a local newspaper reported in 1993. Students needed to come up with just $1,600 apiece to cover everything else on the first two-week trip. Students further defrayed costs by selling coupons for ice cream bars door to door — six bars for $2.The goal of the program was “no different from the classroom,” explained Travis Hofmann, who went on the first three trips, and still has old VHS recordings from 1995. On the tape, Walz can be seen glistening with sweat aboard a sweltering train car, waving to people hiking the impossibly steep steps on the Great Wall and flashing a grin after he plucks a morsel of meat from a snail shell with a toothpick. “You just want to educate, learn, grow — understand people and differences and similarities,” Hofmann said.The trips were extensively planned. The 1994 trip had about 50 participants and included six basketball games between the Americans and Chinese teams. The first game was in an aircraft hangar, but they also played in an arena nicer than any of the kids from rural Nebraska had ever seen, former Alliance basketball coach Rocky Almond recalled. The Americans, some of whom were over 6 feet tall and towered over their Chinese rivals, swept the games.In 1994, Tim Walz took about 50 people to China. The group included high school students, a basketball team made up mostly of college students, a dance group, and Alliance radio announcer Mike Glesinger. Walz is seated in the middle of the front row.Courtesy of Sara Lohmeyer“I can't fathom how they got all that put together,” said Almond, who attended as a chaperone. “I don't know if we could do that at the scale now that we did back then.”The hotels where the groups stayed provided elaborate meals each day, and Walz showed everyone how to use chopsticks. But the American students didn't always enjoy Chinese cuisine. Participants recalled multiple times when students snuck away to eat McDonald's. Eventually, hotel staff noticed some students weren’t eating, and the next day, the kitchen served American food instead."We all got in so much trouble," said Sara Lohmeyer, one of the students on the trip. "That’s probably the only time I ever saw Tim upset." Walz told the group it was disrespectful and could not happen again. He also apologized to the hotel. Walz’s love of the culture eventually rubbed off on Lohmeyer. When she had a severe asthma attack during the trip, Walz suggested Lohmeyer try acupuncture. "I, being a 16-year-old from Nebraska, was like, absolutely not," she recalled. "Nobody's sticking needles in me." Today, Lohmeyer runs an acupuncture practice in Denver.Tim Walz in China in 1997 with fellow teachers Sarah Dixen (left) and Kim Hermer.Courtesy of Kim HermerWalz briefed the groups on topics to avoid during the trip, chief among them the Tiananmen Square massacre. But the square itself was a frequent stop for the school groups. During the 1997 trip, former Mankato West High School teacher Kim Hermer recalled locals gathering around them to have their pictures taken with a chaperone who had long blond hair.“They were just so excited to see somebody who looked so different,” Hermer said. Then some guards showed up and demanded that the crowd disperse. “It was just very joyous and very fun and then it was over.”None of the people APM Reports talked to felt that the Chinese government interfered with their travels, although Hermer did recall what she described as “minders” — “people who were just making sure that we saw what they wanted us to see .... We weren't going in there trying to look for political secrets or anything like that. The focus was really just on the people.”Walz’s China experience a point of pride in CongressWalz proudly touted his experience in China in 2006 when he first ran for Congress. “What we need in education, what we need in the military, and what we need when I'm fostering cultural exchanges with China, is real solutions,” he said during a debate with then-U.S. Rep. Gil Gutknecht, whom he would defeat handily that November.His campaign website at the time noted his role as a visiting fellow of international relations at China’s Macau Polytechnic Institute. It also played up the small business he and his wife, Gwen, founded called Educational Travel Adventures, Inc., which it said “conducts annual educational trips to China for high school students,” a seeming reference to summer travel programs he ran in the schools where he worked. Available documents show that the Walzes first incorporated the travel agency in Nebraska at the end of 1995 and ran ads in the local paper promoting a tour of Hong Kong, China, Nepal and Tibet and another one of Australia and New Zealand. In 1998, Nebraska’s secretary of state dissolved the corporation for failing to pay a $26 annual tax, something the state says happens to thousands of companies every year. The Walzes eventually paid $235.56 in back taxes and interest and shut the company down voluntarily. They registered a new Minnesota company under the same name at the end of 2002, and shut it down permanently in 2008 during Walz’s first term in Congress. As a congressman, Walz continued to build and promote his expertise on China. During his first term, records show Walz used a personal email address with the username “macau.”Then-House Speaker Nancy Pelosi appointed him to the Congressional-Executive Commission on China, a body that monitors human rights issues and the rule of law there. He met with Hong Kong democracy activist Joshua Wong and the Dalai Lama, and tweeted frequently in support of Chinese democracy advocates. Walz was also part of a congressional delegation to China and Tibet in 2015. In 2017, he and U.S. Rep. Christopher Smith, R-N.J., cosponsored the Hong Kong Human Rights and Democracy Act. The bill was eventually passed in 2019. By then, Walz had left Congress to become governor.‘Closer to 15 times’While in Congress, Walz sometimes exaggerated his already substantial experience in China. In 2016, he told an agricultural publication he had been there “about 30 times.” During at least two hearings of the Congressional-Executive Commission on China he claimed to have traveled to China “dozens of times.” Numerous media outlets have repeated those claims. But Walz’s annual trips with high school students between 1993 and the early 2000s would have accounted for around a dozen visits, give or take, and he made only one official trip there as a congressman.APM Reports asked the campaign for documentation on the additional trips, and after weeks of searching, a spokesman finally acknowledged that Walz had traveled from the United States to China “closer to 15 times.”Walz also once described being in Hong Kong in May 1989, during the student uprising that culminated in the Tiananmen Square massacre — an assertion that is belied by newspaper accounts at the time. “As the events were unfolding, several of us went in,” Walz said at a 2014 hearing commemorating the massacre’s 25th anniversary. “I still remember the train station in Hong Kong.” A photograph published May 16, 1989, showed Walz working in the National Guard Armory in Alliance. And a story published in another Nebraska paper on August 11 that year said he would “leave Sunday en route to China” after having “about given up participating [in WorldTeach] earlier this summer during the student revolts in parts of China.” The August departure date is also consistent with WorldTeach’s 1989 promotional materials about the program.The campaign was unable to produce documentation to back up Walz’s statement that he was there during the uprising.Republicans attack Walz’s China connections Walz’s deep experience in China clearly sets him apart from most people who have run for vice president — or president for that matter. That would seem to be an asset if he becomes vice president, but the campaign is saying little about it.His biography on the campaign website mentions his work as a teacher and football coach, including his team’s state championship victory 25 years ago, but nothing about his time in China.Conservative commentators have tried to label him “Tiananmen Tim,” “The Great Walz of China” and even made the far-fetched claim that he is some sort of “Manchurian candidate,” a reference to the 1962 Cold War-era film about an American soldier brainwashed by Chinese agents to become an assassin. “It’s very possible that China would be grooming an up-and-coming, rising star in the political process to try to have a foothold in our government,” U.S. Rep. Comer told Fox News in August. “This is how China operates. They think long term.” Walz was hardly a “rising star” in politics when he was living in China and leading summer trips there. He was a small-town social studies teacher years before he ran for office.The Harris-Walz campaign issued a brief written statement in response to questions for this story: “Throughout his career, Governor Walz has stood up to the [Chinese Communist Party], fought for human rights and democracy, and always put American jobs and manufacturing first,” it read in part. “Republicans are twisting basic facts and desperately lying to distract from the Trump-Vance agenda: praising dictators, and sending American jobs to China.”Comer sent a letter to the FBI in August demanding information on Walz. In a follow-up letter dated Sept. 12, he said he had received no response.“The FBI appears to deem these concerning facts unpersuasive to require its cooperation with a congressional investigation,” Comer wrote. His office did not respond to multiple interview requests.Hessler, who wrote about his time in China between 1996 and 2007, says Comer’s line of attack reflects “the xenophobia of the moment, and the sinophobia of the moment.”Kent Pekel, now the superintendent of Rochester Public Schools, lived in China during some of the same times Walz did. He said China and the United States didn’t view each other as adversaries in the 1990s.“If you had told me then that there would be the level of animosity that exists [now] between the U.S. and China, I would never have believed it,” Pekel said. “It was a time of optimism — a time when the United States was very, very popular and widely admired.”Additional reporting by MPR News senior reporter Hannah Yang and APM reporter Jennifer Lu.Curator talks archiving Walz’s bid for VP, preserving political legaciesAfter losing VP bid, Walz searches for role in pushing back against TrumpGov.

It told Americans to stay away from China, citing an “extremely volatile and potentially life-threatening” situation there following the Tiananmen Square massacre. Two months later, even though the department was still discouraging “non-essential” travel to the country, a 25-year-old teacher from Nebraska went there anyway.“I’m somewhat apprehensive, but I’m also excited,” Gov. Tim Walz told a local newspaper before departing for a yearlong teaching appointment in the southern Chinese city of Foshan. “It will be an interesting experience, I’m sure.”That experience sparked in Walz a lifelong fascination with Chinese culture — one he shared with hundreds of high school students on elaborately planned annual trips over the course of a decade and touted proudly when he first entered politics. Walz was so proud of his extensive experience abroad that he occasionally used to exaggerate it.

Since Walz joined the national ticket, APM Reports has interviewed more than a dozen people and combed through business records, government documents, yearbooks and old news clippings in search of a better picture of his experience in China. The reporting — which includes exclusive video obtained by APM Reports of his time in China — paints a picture of a distinctive and often-overlooked part of Walz’s life. Republicans have sought to portray that experience as nefarious. House Oversight and Accountability Chairman James Comer, R-Ky., has demanded the FBI help his committee investigate whether the Chinese Communist Party sought to groom a small-town social studies teacher as part of a shadowy program that “seeks to co-opt influential figures in elite political, cultural, and academic circles to influence the United States to the benefit of the communist regime and the detriment of Americans.”That line of criticism pervades right-wing social media and could very well surface Tuesday, when Walz debates Republican vice presidential nominee JD Vance.“It’s a very misguided reaction,” said Peter Hessler, who has written four books on China and lived there for more than a decade.“American policy has enormous impact on parts of the world that are developing, that have gone through poverty and isolation, and almost none of our leaders have spent much time in those places,” he said. “It's never been seen as a positive of course, I think, because America is a fairly isolationist society in many ways. And people don't understand why this is important, but it is important.”Walz first went to China through WorldTeach, a small nonprofit based at Harvard University that sent American teachers to work in schools overseas. During his year there, Walz has said he made frequent trips to Macau, which was still a Portuguese province and became a semi-autonomous part of China, similar to Hong Kong, in 1999. He also traveled thousands of miles to Tiananmen Square and Tibet, which was restricted at that time.“I'm really quite impressed that he was able to pull that off in 1989 or 1990,” said Evan Dawley, a former China-based field director for WorldTeach. (WorldTeach is now defunct, and its archives at Harvard won’t be open to researchers and journalists until 2039, under a university policy that seals administrative records for at least 50 years.)Sydney Rosen, who co-founded WorldTeach with economist Michael Kremer and served as its first director when Walz was sent to China, said volunteers often ignored her admonition to “stay away from the action … because these were 22-year-olds who thought it was exciting.” It clearly was for Walz, and when he returned to Nebraska a year later to teach social studies in the 10,000-person town of Alliance, he was eager to share the experience with its residents. He gave presentations about his adventures to the local chapters of the Jaycees and the Rotary Club.A screenshot from a video of Tim Walz at the Great Wall of China in 1995.Courtesy of Travis HofmannA cultural exchangeIn 1993, Walz arranged what would be the first in a series of summer trips to China for his students.“Mr. Walz made all the reservations by phone — in Chinese!” Alliance High School student Anne Hjersman wrote in a letter to the editor published in the local paper. Students and teachers who knew him recalled that he spoke at least proficient Mandarin, though he told a reporter in 1990 after he returned from Foshan (where the locals speak Cantonese) that he had “great difficulty” with Mandarin pronunciation. A Chinese New Year greeting he recorded as governor in 2021 includes brief messages in both Mandarin and Cantonese.The trips would not have been possible without Walz’s connections in China. The Guangzhou University’s Physical Education Institute covered in-country costs for at least one of the early trips, a local newspaper reported in 1993. Students needed to come up with just $1,600 apiece to cover everything else on the first two-week trip. Students further defrayed costs by selling coupons for ice cream bars door to door — six bars for $2.The goal of the program was “no different from the classroom,” explained Travis Hofmann, who went on the first three trips, and still has old VHS recordings from 1995. On the tape, Walz can be seen glistening with sweat aboard a sweltering train car, waving to people hiking the impossibly steep steps on the Great Wall and flashing a grin after he plucks a morsel of meat from a snail shell with a toothpick. “You just want to educate, learn, grow — understand people and differences and similarities,” Hofmann said.The trips were extensively planned. The 1994 trip had about 50 participants and included six basketball games between the Americans and Chinese teams. The first game was in an aircraft hangar, but they also played in an arena nicer than any of the kids from rural Nebraska had ever seen, former Alliance basketball coach Rocky Almond recalled. The Americans, some of whom were over 6 feet tall and towered over their Chinese rivals, swept the games.In 1994, Tim Walz took about 50 people to China. The group included high school students, a basketball team made up mostly of college students, a dance group, and Alliance radio announcer Mike Glesinger. Walz is seated in the middle of the front row.Courtesy of Sara Lohmeyer“I can't fathom how they got all that put together,” said Almond, who attended as a chaperone. “I don't know if we could do that at the scale now that we did back then.”The hotels where the groups stayed provided elaborate meals each day, and Walz showed everyone how to use chopsticks. But the American students didn't always enjoy Chinese cuisine. Participants recalled multiple times when students snuck away to eat McDonald's. Eventually, hotel staff noticed some students weren’t eating, and the next day, the kitchen served American food instead."We all got in so much trouble," said Sara Lohmeyer, one of the students on the trip. "That’s probably the only time I ever saw Tim upset." Walz told the group it was disrespectful and could not happen again. He also apologized to the hotel. Walz’s love of the culture eventually rubbed off on Lohmeyer. When she had a severe asthma attack during the trip, Walz suggested Lohmeyer try acupuncture. "I, being a 16-year-old from Nebraska, was like, absolutely not," she recalled. "Nobody's sticking needles in me." Today, Lohmeyer runs an acupuncture practice in Denver.Tim Walz in China in 1997 with fellow teachers Sarah Dixen (left) and Kim Hermer.Courtesy of Kim HermerWalz briefed the groups on topics to avoid during the trip, chief among them the Tiananmen Square massacre. But the square itself was a frequent stop for the school groups. During the 1997 trip, former Mankato West High School teacher Kim Hermer recalled locals gathering around them to have their pictures taken with a chaperone who had long blond hair.“They were just so excited to see somebody who looked so different,” Hermer said. Then some guards showed up and demanded that the crowd disperse. “It was just very joyous and very fun and then it was over.”None of the people APM Reports talked to felt that the Chinese government interfered with their travels, although Hermer did recall what she described as “minders” — “people who were just making sure that we saw what they wanted us to see .... We weren't going in there trying to look for political secrets or anything like that. The focus was really just on the people.”Walz’s China experience a point of pride in CongressWalz proudly touted his experience in China in 2006 when he first ran for Congress. “What we need in education, what we need in the military, and what we need when I'm fostering cultural exchanges with China, is real solutions,” he said during a debate with then-U.S. Rep.

On the tape, Walz can be seen glistening with sweat aboard a sweltering train car, waving to people hiking the impossibly steep steps on the Great Wall and flashing a grin after he plucks a morsel of meat from a snail shell with a toothpick. “You just want to educate, learn, grow — understand people and differences and similarities,” Hofmann said.The trips were extensively planned. The 1994 trip had about 50 participants and included six basketball games between the Americans and Chinese teams. The first game was in an aircraft hangar, but they also played in an arena nicer than any of the kids from rural Nebraska had ever seen, former Alliance basketball coach Rocky Almond recalled. The Americans, some of whom were over 6 feet tall and towered over their Chinese rivals, swept the games.In 1994, Tim Walz took about 50 people to China. The group included high school students, a basketball team made up mostly of college students, a dance group, and Alliance radio announcer Mike Glesinger. Walz is seated in the middle of the front row.Courtesy of Sara Lohmeyer“I can't fathom how they got all that put together,” said Almond, who attended as a chaperone. “I don't know if we could do that at the scale now that we did back then.”The hotels where the groups stayed provided elaborate meals each day, and Walz showed everyone how to use chopsticks. But the American students didn't always enjoy Chinese cuisine. Participants recalled multiple times when students snuck away to eat McDonald's. Eventually, hotel staff noticed some students weren’t eating, and the next day, the kitchen served American food instead."We all got in so much trouble," said Sara Lohmeyer, one of the students on the trip. "That’s probably the only time I ever saw Tim upset." Walz told the group it was disrespectful and could not happen again. He also apologized to the hotel. Walz’s love of the culture eventually rubbed off on Lohmeyer. When she had a severe asthma attack during the trip, Walz suggested Lohmeyer try acupuncture. "I, being a 16-year-old from Nebraska, was like, absolutely not," she recalled. "Nobody's sticking needles in me." Today, Lohmeyer runs an acupuncture practice in Denver.Tim Walz in China in 1997 with fellow teachers Sarah Dixen (left) and Kim Hermer.Courtesy of Kim HermerWalz briefed the groups on topics to avoid during the trip, chief among them the Tiananmen Square massacre. But the square itself was a frequent stop for the school groups. During the 1997 trip, former Mankato West High School teacher Kim Hermer recalled locals gathering around them to have their pictures taken with a chaperone who had long blond hair.“They were just so excited to see somebody who looked so different,” Hermer said. Then some guards showed up and demanded that the crowd disperse. “It was just very joyous and very fun and then it was over.”None of the people APM Reports talked to felt that the Chinese government interfered with their travels, although Hermer did recall what she described as “minders” — “people who were just making sure that we saw what they wanted us to see .... We weren't going in there trying to look for political secrets or anything like that. The focus was really just on the people.”Walz’s China experience a point of pride in CongressWalz proudly touted his experience in China in 2006 when he first ran for Congress. “What we need in education, what we need in the military, and what we need when I'm fostering cultural exchanges with China, is real solutions,” he said during a debate with then-U.S. Rep. Gil Gutknecht, whom he would defeat handily that November.His campaign website at the time noted his role as a visiting fellow of international relations at China’s Macau Polytechnic Institute. It also played up the small business he and his wife, Gwen, founded called Educational Travel Adventures, Inc., which it said “conducts annual educational trips to China for high school students,” a seeming reference to summer travel programs he ran in the schools where he worked. Available documents show that the Walzes first incorporated the travel agency in Nebraska at the end of 1995 and ran ads in the local paper promoting a tour of Hong Kong, China, Nepal and Tibet and another one of Australia and New Zealand. In 1998, Nebraska’s secretary of state dissolved the corporation for failing to pay a $26 annual tax, something the state says happens to thousands of companies every year. The Walzes eventually paid $235.56 in back taxes and interest and shut the company down voluntarily. They registered a new Minnesota company under the same name at the end of 2002, and shut it down permanently in 2008 during Walz’s first term in Congress. As a congressman, Walz continued to build and promote his expertise on China. During his first term, records show Walz used a personal email address with the username “macau.”Then-House Speaker Nancy Pelosi appointed him to the Congressional-Executive Commission on China, a body that monitors human rights issues and the rule of law there. He met with Hong Kong democracy activist Joshua Wong and the Dalai Lama, and tweeted frequently in support of Chinese democracy advocates. Walz was also part of a congressional delegation to China and Tibet in 2015. In 2017, he and U.S. Rep. Christopher Smith, R-N.J., cosponsored the Hong Kong Human Rights and Democracy Act. The bill was eventually passed in 2019. By then, Walz had left Congress to become governor.‘Closer to 15 times’While in Congress, Walz sometimes exaggerated his already substantial experience in China. In 2016, he told an agricultural publication he had been there “about 30 times.” During at least two hearings of the Congressional-Executive Commission on China he claimed to have traveled to China “dozens of times.” Numerous media outlets have repeated those claims. But Walz’s annual trips with high school students between 1993 and the early 2000s would have accounted for around a dozen visits, give or take, and he made only one official trip there as a congressman.APM Reports asked the campaign for documentation on the additional trips, and after weeks of searching, a spokesman finally acknowledged that Walz had traveled from the United States to China “closer to 15 times.”Walz also once described being in Hong Kong in May 1989, during the student uprising that culminated in the Tiananmen Square massacre — an assertion that is belied by newspaper accounts at the time. “As the events were unfolding, several of us went in,” Walz said at a 2014 hearing commemorating the massacre’s 25th anniversary. “I still remember the train station in Hong Kong.” A photograph published May 16, 1989, showed Walz working in the National Guard Armory in Alliance. And a story published in another Nebraska paper on August 11 that year said he would “leave Sunday en route to China” after having “about given up participating [in WorldTeach] earlier this summer during the student revolts in parts of China.” The August departure date is also consistent with WorldTeach’s 1989 promotional materials about the program.The campaign was unable to produce documentation to back up Walz’s statement that he was there during the uprising.Republicans attack Walz’s China connections Walz’s deep experience in China clearly sets him apart from most people who have run for vice president — or president for that matter. That would seem to be an asset if he becomes vice president, but the campaign is saying little about it.His biography on the campaign website mentions his work as a teacher and football coach, including his team’s state championship victory 25 years ago, but nothing about his time in China.Conservative commentators have tried to label him “Tiananmen Tim,” “The Great Walz of China” and even made the far-fetched claim that he is some sort of “Manchurian candidate,” a reference to the 1962 Cold War-era film about an American soldier brainwashed by Chinese agents to become an assassin. “It’s very possible that China would be grooming an up-and-coming, rising star in the political process to try to have a foothold in our government,” U.S. Rep. Comer told Fox News in August. “This is how China operates. They think long term.” Walz was hardly a “rising star” in politics when he was living in China and leading summer trips there. He was a small-town social studies teacher years before he ran for office.The Harris-Walz campaign issued a brief written statement in response to questions for this story: “Throughout his career, Governor Walz has stood up to the [Chinese Communist Party], fought for human rights and democracy, and always put American jobs and manufacturing first,” it read in part. “Republicans are twisting basic facts and desperately lying to distract from the Trump-Vance agenda: praising dictators, and sending American jobs to China.”Comer sent a letter to the FBI in August demanding information on Walz. In a follow-up letter dated Sept. 12, he said he had received no response.“The FBI appears to deem these concerning facts unpersuasive to require its cooperation with a congressional investigation,” Comer wrote. His office did not respond to multiple interview requests.Hessler, who wrote about his time in China between 1996 and 2007, says Comer’s line of attack reflects “the xenophobia of the moment, and the sinophobia of the moment.”Kent Pekel, now the superintendent of Rochester Public Schools, lived in China during some of the same times Walz did. He said China and the United States didn’t view each other as adversaries in the 1990s.“If you had told me then that there would be the level of animosity that exists [now] between the U.S. and China, I would never have believed it,” Pekel said. “It was a time of optimism — a time when the United States was very, very popular and widely admired.”Additional reporting by MPR News senior reporter Hannah Yang and APM reporter Jennifer Lu.Curator talks archiving Walz’s bid for VP, preserving political legaciesAfter losing VP bid, Walz searches for role in pushing back against TrumpGov.

It told Americans to stay away from China, citing an “extremely volatile and potentially life-threatening” situation there following the Tiananmen Square massacre. Two months later, even though the department was still discouraging “non-essential” travel to the country, a 25-year-old teacher from Nebraska went there anyway.“I’m somewhat apprehensive, but I’m also excited,” Gov. Tim Walz told a local newspaper before departing for a yearlong teaching appointment in the southern Chinese city of Foshan. “It will be an interesting experience, I’m sure.”That experience sparked in Walz a lifelong fascination with Chinese culture — one he shared with hundreds of high school students on elaborately planned annual trips over the course of a decade and touted proudly when he first entered politics. Walz was so proud of his extensive experience abroad that he occasionally used to exaggerate it. His campaign now acknowledges that Walz’s past claims that he had been to China around 30 times were overstated, and the actual number of trips he’s taken from the United States to China is “closer to 15.”But, now as Minnesota’s governor and the Democratic Party's nominee for vice president, Walz has chosen to emphasize his folksy image as a down-home Midwestern dad and state-championship football coach rather than his history as a peripatetic world traveler.

Since Walz joined the national ticket, APM Reports has interviewed more than a dozen people and combed through business records, government documents, yearbooks and old news clippings in search of a better picture of his experience in China. The reporting — which includes exclusive video obtained by APM Reports of his time in China — paints a picture of a distinctive and often-overlooked part of Walz’s life. Republicans have sought to portray that experience as nefarious. House Oversight and Accountability Chairman James Comer, R-Ky., has demanded the FBI help his committee investigate whether the Chinese Communist Party sought to groom a small-town social studies teacher as part of a shadowy program that “seeks to co-opt influential figures in elite political, cultural, and academic circles to influence the United States to the benefit of the communist regime and the detriment of Americans.”That line of criticism pervades right-wing social media and could very well surface Tuesday, when Walz debates Republican vice presidential nominee JD Vance.“It’s a very misguided reaction,” said Peter Hessler, who has written four books on China and lived there for more than a decade.“American policy has enormous impact on parts of the world that are developing, that have gone through poverty and isolation, and almost none of our leaders have spent much time in those places,” he said. “It's never been seen as a positive of course, I think, because America is a fairly isolationist society in many ways. And people don't understand why this is important, but it is important.”Walz first went to China through WorldTeach, a small nonprofit based at Harvard University that sent American teachers to work in schools overseas. During his year there, Walz has said he made frequent trips to Macau, which was still a Portuguese province and became a semi-autonomous part of China, similar to Hong Kong, in 1999. He also traveled thousands of miles to Tiananmen Square and Tibet, which was restricted at that time.“I'm really quite impressed that he was able to pull that off in 1989 or 1990,” said Evan Dawley, a former China-based field director for WorldTeach. (WorldTeach is now defunct, and its archives at Harvard won’t be open to researchers and journalists until 2039, under a university policy that seals administrative records for at least 50 years.)Sydney Rosen, who co-founded WorldTeach with economist Michael Kremer and served as its first director when Walz was sent to China, said volunteers often ignored her admonition to “stay away from the action … because these were 22-year-olds who thought it was exciting.” It clearly was for Walz, and when he returned to Nebraska a year later to teach social studies in the 10,000-person town of Alliance, he was eager to share the experience with its residents. He gave presentations about his adventures to the local chapters of the Jaycees and the Rotary Club.A screenshot from a video of Tim Walz at the Great Wall of China in 1995.Courtesy of Travis HofmannA cultural exchangeIn 1993, Walz arranged what would be the first in a series of summer trips to China for his students.“Mr. Walz made all the reservations by phone — in Chinese!” Alliance High School student Anne Hjersman wrote in a letter to the editor published in the local paper. Students and teachers who knew him recalled that he spoke at least proficient Mandarin, though he told a reporter in 1990 after he returned from Foshan (where the locals speak Cantonese) that he had “great difficulty” with Mandarin pronunciation. A Chinese New Year greeting he recorded as governor in 2021 includes brief messages in both Mandarin and Cantonese.The trips would not have been possible without Walz’s connections in China. The Guangzhou University’s Physical Education Institute covered in-country costs for at least one of the early trips, a local newspaper reported in 1993. Students needed to come up with just $1,600 apiece to cover everything else on the first two-week trip. Students further defrayed costs by selling coupons for ice cream bars door to door — six bars for $2.The goal of the program was “no different from the classroom,” explained Travis Hofmann, who went on the first three trips, and still has old VHS recordings from 1995. On the tape, Walz can be seen glistening with sweat aboard a sweltering train car, waving to people hiking the impossibly steep steps on the Great Wall and flashing a grin after he plucks a morsel of meat from a snail shell with a toothpick. “You just want to educate, learn, grow — understand people and differences and similarities,” Hofmann said.The trips were extensively planned. The 1994 trip had about 50 participants and included six basketball games between the Americans and Chinese teams. The first game was in an aircraft hangar, but they also played in an arena nicer than any of the kids from rural Nebraska had ever seen, former Alliance basketball coach Rocky Almond recalled. The Americans, some of whom were over 6 feet tall and towered over their Chinese rivals, swept the games.In 1994, Tim Walz took about 50 people to China.

During his year there, Walz has said he made frequent trips to Macau, which was still a Portuguese province and became a semi-autonomous part of China, similar to Hong Kong, in 1999. He also traveled thousands of miles to Tiananmen Square and Tibet, which was restricted at that time.“I'm really quite impressed that he was able to pull that off in 1989 or 1990,” said Evan Dawley, a former China-based field director for WorldTeach. (WorldTeach is now defunct, and its archives at Harvard won’t be open to researchers and journalists until 2039, under a university policy that seals administrative records for at least 50 years.)Sydney Rosen, who co-founded WorldTeach with economist Michael Kremer and served as its first director when Walz was sent to China, said volunteers often ignored her admonition to “stay away from the action … because these were 22-year-olds who thought it was exciting.” It clearly was for Walz, and when he returned to Nebraska a year later to teach social studies in the 10,000-person town of Alliance, he was eager to share the experience with its residents. He gave presentations about his adventures to the local chapters of the Jaycees and the Rotary Club.A screenshot from a video of Tim Walz at the Great Wall of China in 1995.Courtesy of Travis HofmannA cultural exchangeIn 1993, Walz arranged what would be the first in a series of summer trips to China for his students.“Mr. Walz made all the reservations by phone — in Chinese!” Alliance High School student Anne Hjersman wrote in a letter to the editor published in the local paper. Students and teachers who knew him recalled that he spoke at least proficient Mandarin, though he told a reporter in 1990 after he returned from Foshan (where the locals speak Cantonese) that he had “great difficulty” with Mandarin pronunciation. A Chinese New Year greeting he recorded as governor in 2021 includes brief messages in both Mandarin and Cantonese.The trips would not have been possible without Walz’s connections in China. The Guangzhou University’s Physical Education Institute covered in-country costs for at least one of the early trips, a local newspaper reported in 1993. Students needed to come up with just $1,600 apiece to cover everything else on the first two-week trip. Students further defrayed costs by selling coupons for ice cream bars door to door — six bars for $2.The goal of the program was “no different from the classroom,” explained Travis Hofmann, who went on the first three trips, and still has old VHS recordings from 1995. On the tape, Walz can be seen glistening with sweat aboard a sweltering train car, waving to people hiking the impossibly steep steps on the Great Wall and flashing a grin after he plucks a morsel of meat from a snail shell with a toothpick. “You just want to educate, learn, grow — understand people and differences and similarities,” Hofmann said.The trips were extensively planned. The 1994 trip had about 50 participants and included six basketball games between the Americans and Chinese teams. The first game was in an aircraft hangar, but they also played in an arena nicer than any of the kids from rural Nebraska had ever seen, former Alliance basketball coach Rocky Almond recalled. The Americans, some of whom were over 6 feet tall and towered over their Chinese rivals, swept the games.In 1994, Tim Walz took about 50 people to China. The group included high school students, a basketball team made up mostly of college students, a dance group, and Alliance radio announcer Mike Glesinger. Walz is seated in the middle of the front row.Courtesy of Sara Lohmeyer“I can't fathom how they got all that put together,” said Almond, who attended as a chaperone. “I don't know if we could do that at the scale now that we did back then.”The hotels where the groups stayed provided elaborate meals each day, and Walz showed everyone how to use chopsticks. But the American students didn't always enjoy Chinese cuisine. Participants recalled multiple times when students snuck away to eat McDonald's. Eventually, hotel staff noticed some students weren’t eating, and the next day, the kitchen served American food instead."We all got in so much trouble," said Sara Lohmeyer, one of the students on the trip. "That’s probably the only time I ever saw Tim upset." Walz told the group it was disrespectful and could not happen again. He also apologized to the hotel. Walz’s love of the culture eventually rubbed off on Lohmeyer. When she had a severe asthma attack during the trip, Walz suggested Lohmeyer try acupuncture. "I, being a 16-year-old from Nebraska, was like, absolutely not," she recalled. "Nobody's sticking needles in me." Today, Lohmeyer runs an acupuncture practice in Denver.Tim Walz in China in 1997 with fellow teachers Sarah Dixen (left) and Kim Hermer.Courtesy of Kim HermerWalz briefed the groups on topics to avoid during the trip, chief among them the Tiananmen Square massacre. But the square itself was a frequent stop for the school groups. During the 1997 trip, former Mankato West High School teacher Kim Hermer recalled locals gathering around them to have their pictures taken with a chaperone who had long blond hair.“They were just so excited to see somebody who looked so different,” Hermer said. Then some guards showed up and demanded that the crowd disperse. “It was just very joyous and very fun and then it was over.”None of the people APM Reports talked to felt that the Chinese government interfered with their travels, although Hermer did recall what she described as “minders” — “people who were just making sure that we saw what they wanted us to see .... We weren't going in there trying to look for political secrets or anything like that. The focus was really just on the people.”Walz’s China experience a point of pride in CongressWalz proudly touted his experience in China in 2006 when he first ran for Congress. “What we need in education, what we need in the military, and what we need when I'm fostering cultural exchanges with China, is real solutions,” he said during a debate with then-U.S. Rep. Gil Gutknecht, whom he would defeat handily that November.His campaign website at the time noted his role as a visiting fellow of international relations at China’s Macau Polytechnic Institute. It also played up the small business he and his wife, Gwen, founded called Educational Travel Adventures, Inc., which it said “conducts annual educational trips to China for high school students,” a seeming reference to summer travel programs he ran in the schools where he worked. Available documents show that the Walzes first incorporated the travel agency in Nebraska at the end of 1995 and ran ads in the local paper promoting a tour of Hong Kong, China, Nepal and Tibet and another one of Australia and New Zealand. In 1998, Nebraska’s secretary of state dissolved the corporation for failing to pay a $26 annual tax, something the state says happens to thousands of companies every year. The Walzes eventually paid $235.56 in back taxes and interest and shut the company down voluntarily. They registered a new Minnesota company under the same name at the end of 2002, and shut it down permanently in 2008 during Walz’s first term in Congress. As a congressman, Walz continued to build and promote his expertise on China. During his first term, records show Walz used a personal email address with the username “macau.”Then-House Speaker Nancy Pelosi appointed him to the Congressional-Executive Commission on China, a body that monitors human rights issues and the rule of law there. He met with Hong Kong democracy activist Joshua Wong and the Dalai Lama, and tweeted frequently in support of Chinese democracy advocates. Walz was also part of a congressional delegation to China and Tibet in 2015. In 2017, he and U.S. Rep. Christopher Smith, R-N.J., cosponsored the Hong Kong Human Rights and Democracy Act. The bill was eventually passed in 2019. By then, Walz had left Congress to become governor.‘Closer to 15 times’While in Congress, Walz sometimes exaggerated his already substantial experience in China. In 2016, he told an agricultural publication he had been there “about 30 times.” During at least two hearings of the Congressional-Executive Commission on China he claimed to have traveled to China “dozens of times.” Numerous media outlets have repeated those claims. But Walz’s annual trips with high school students between 1993 and the early 2000s would have accounted for around a dozen visits, give or take, and he made only one official trip there as a congressman.APM Reports asked the campaign for documentation on the additional trips, and after weeks of searching, a spokesman finally acknowledged that Walz had traveled from the United States to China “closer to 15 times.”Walz also once described being in Hong Kong in May 1989, during the student uprising that culminated in the Tiananmen Square massacre — an assertion that is belied by newspaper accounts at the time. “As the events were unfolding, several of us went in,” Walz said at a 2014 hearing commemorating the massacre’s 25th anniversary. “I still remember the train station in Hong Kong.” A photograph published May 16, 1989, showed Walz working in the National Guard Armory in Alliance. And a story published in another Nebraska paper on August 11 that year said he would “leave Sunday en route to China” after having “about given up participating [in WorldTeach] earlier this summer during the student revolts in parts of China.” The August departure date is also consistent with WorldTeach’s 1989 promotional materials about the program.The campaign was unable to produce documentation to back up Walz’s statement that he was there during the uprising.Republicans attack Walz’s China connections Walz’s deep experience in China clearly sets him apart from most people who have run for vice president — or president for that matter. That would seem to be an asset if he becomes vice president, but the campaign is saying little about it.His biography on the campaign website mentions his work as a teacher and football coach, including his team’s state championship victory 25 years ago, but nothing about his time in China.Conservative commentators have tried to label him “Tiananmen Tim,” “The Great Walz of China” and even made the far-fetched claim that he is some sort of “Manchurian candidate,” a reference to the 1962 Cold War-era film about an American soldier brainwashed by Chinese agents to become an assassin. “It’s very possible that China would be grooming an up-and-coming, rising star in the political process to try to have a foothold in our government,” U.S. Rep. Comer told Fox News in August. “This is how China operates. They think long term.” Walz was hardly a “rising star” in politics when he was living in China and leading summer trips there. He was a small-town social studies teacher years before he ran for office.The Harris-Walz campaign issued a brief written statement in response to questions for this story: “Throughout his career, Governor Walz has stood up to the [Chinese Communist Party], fought for human rights and democracy, and always put American jobs and manufacturing first,” it read in part. “Republicans are twisting basic facts and desperately lying to distract from the Trump-Vance agenda: praising dictators, and sending American jobs to China.”Comer sent a letter to the FBI in August demanding information on Walz. In a follow-up letter dated Sept. 12, he said he had received no response.“The FBI appears to deem these concerning facts unpersuasive to require its cooperation with a congressional investigation,” Comer wrote. His office did not respond to multiple interview requests.Hessler, who wrote about his time in China between 1996 and 2007, says Comer’s line of attack reflects “the xenophobia of the moment, and the sinophobia of the moment.”Kent Pekel, now the superintendent of Rochester Public Schools, lived in China during some of the same times Walz did. He said China and the United States didn’t view each other as adversaries in the 1990s.“If you had told me then that there would be the level of animosity that exists [now] between the U.S. and China, I would never have believed it,” Pekel said. “It was a time of optimism — a time when the United States was very, very popular and widely admired.”Additional reporting by MPR News senior reporter Hannah Yang and APM reporter Jennifer Lu.Curator talks archiving Walz’s bid for VP, preserving political legaciesAfter losing VP bid, Walz searches for role in pushing back against TrumpGov.

PHOENIX — The Arizona Secretary of State's office released updated numbers on registrants impacted by an "administrative error," bringing the total to approximately 218,000. According to officials, these voters could have had access to a full ballot for decades when they should have been receiving a federal-only ballot.See ABC15's original reporting from when the issue was announced in the player above.Like Arizona’s electorate overall, the affected voters lean Republican. This new group of approximately 120,000 voters includes 79,000 Republicans, 61,000 Democrats and 76,000 independents.State and county officials came out earlier in September to announce that they are investigating the issue impacting the voting status and ballots of some people living in Arizona who have not provided documentation of U.S. citizenship.The Secretary of State and County Recorder differed on their positions on how to move forward from the issue. County Recorder Steve Richer said the issue was going to courts “to get a clear answer.”On September 20, the Arizona Supreme Court ruled that those whose citizenship documents hadn’t been confirmed can vote in state and local races.The voter registration database is now updated to correctly flag the impacted voters as needing proof of citizenship, according to a Monday statement.Those who are impacted by this issue will be contacted by election officials regarding their voting status after this year's election, if necessary, according to Secretary of State Adrian Fontes.THE ISSUEBeginning Dec. 8, 2004, Arizona law required registrants who provided documentation to receive full ballots and those who did not provide documentation to receive federal-only ballots. According to the law, a driver’s license issued after Oct. 1, 1996, could be used as proof of citizenship.An MVD and "AVID system" administrative issue reportedly involved duplicate licenses and their issuance dates.“The AVID system was programmed to query the duplicate issuance date and would not alert the county that the license was originally issued before 10/1/1996,” according to the governor’s office."This flaw has existed since 2004. In every county. Across the state," Maricopa County Recorder Stephen Richer previously said on X.Fontes’ office said it is continuing to work with the MVD to determine if more people are affected.

For the record, this the case that, near as I can tell, was already ruled on by the state Supreme Court. Texas requires citizenship records for local elections, but isn't allowed to for Federal. People who have not proved their citizenship are supposed to receive federal only ballots, but since 2004, have been getting the full ballot.
Based on the court ruling, they will be allowed to vote on the full ballot this year. Amusingly, while it would affect a lot of Democrats and Independents, it would have affected more Republicans.

The question is who — or what — might be making such a purchase and why.By Steve BenenI’ve been marveling for quite a while at Donald Trump trying to turn his candidacy into money-making opportunities. As regular readers know, the list isn’t short, and it includes everything from silver commemorative coins to the Republican’s cryptocurrency project, Trump-endorsed Bibles to gold sneakers.But the former president broke new ground last week, unveiling a line of Trump-endorsed wristwatches, the most expensive of which costs $100,000 — far more than the average American’s annual income.The question, of course, is why he would do this.The obvious answer is that the GOP candidate is facing a real cash crunch, and he’s not exactly choosy when it comes to merchandising opportunities. But with the watches in particular, there are broader concerns that don’t necessarily apply to the Republican’s other overpriced trinkets.I’ve seen some suggestions that Trump might be pulling a campaign-finance scheme: A hypothetical wealthy donor wants to give the former president a $100,000 donation — far in excess of the legal limit — so he or she buys an expensive watch. At that point, the nominee could take his cut and write a comparable check in support of his candidacy, since there is no legal limit on what candidates can spend on their own campaigns.In fact, there would be nothing stopping such donors from buying many of Trump’s watches as part of such a plan.That’s certainly possible. But it’s also possible that anyone — even foreign governments — could make the same kinds of purchases with the hopes of currying favor with the man who might soon become the leader of the free world. A Washington Post analysis noted:Here is a company encouraging people to “join President Trump’s watch community,” offering up a product that retails for six figures. Each watch, the website promises, will include a “personalized ‘Thank You’ message from President Trump,” ensuring, it seems, that Trump knows who made the purchase.And did I mention that the online FAQ noted that buyers can use cryptocurrency or wire transfers to purchase the $100,000 “Trump Victory Tourbillon Watch”? Because that’s part of the offer.I suppose it’s theoretically possible that the Republican nominee’s campaign, in the very near future, will prove their commitment to transparency by providing the public with a detailed accounting of who and/or what has made $100,000 watch purchases.But if you believe that’s likely to happen, you might also be interested in buying a degree from Trump University.Steve BenenSteve Benen is a producer for "The Rachel Maddow Show," the editor of MaddowBlog and an MSNBC political contributor.

I’m smart... but you can’t see my grades.
I’m a patriot... but I dodged the draft.
I’m successful... but my businesses fail.
My staff is the best... until I fire them.
I’m innocent... but the prosecutors and courts are corrupt, unless they support me.

The question is who — or what — might be making such a purchase and why.By Steve BenenI’ve been marveling for quite a while at Donald Trump trying to turn his candidacy into money-making opportunities. As regular readers know, the list isn’t short, and it includes everything from silver commemorative coins to the Republican’s cryptocurrency project, Trump-endorsed Bibles to gold sneakers.But the former president broke new ground last week, unveiling a line of Trump-endorsed wristwatches, the most expensive of which costs $100,000 — far more than the average American’s annual income.The question, of course, is why he would do this.The obvious answer is that the GOP candidate is facing a real cash crunch, and he’s not exactly choosy when it comes to merchandising opportunities. But with the watches in particular, there are broader concerns that don’t necessarily apply to the Republican’s other overpriced trinkets.I’ve seen some suggestions that Trump might be pulling a campaign-finance scheme: A hypothetical wealthy donor wants to give the former president a $100,000 donation — far in excess of the legal limit — so he or she buys an expensive watch. At that point, the nominee could take his cut and write a comparable check in support of his candidacy, since there is no legal limit on what candidates can spend on their own campaigns.In fact, there would be nothing stopping such donors from buying many of Trump’s watches as part of such a plan.That’s certainly possible. But it’s also possible that anyone — even foreign governments — could make the same kinds of purchases with the hopes of currying favor with the man who might soon become the leader of the free world. A Washington Post analysis noted:Here is a company encouraging people to “join President Trump’s watch community,” offering up a product that retails for six figures. Each watch, the website promises, will include a “personalized ‘Thank You’ message from President Trump,” ensuring, it seems, that Trump knows who made the purchase.And did I mention that the online FAQ noted that buyers can use cryptocurrency or wire transfers to purchase the $100,000 “Trump Victory Tourbillon Watch”? Because that’s part of the offer.I suppose it’s theoretically possible that the Republican nominee’s campaign, in the very near future, will prove their commitment to transparency by providing the public with a detailed accounting of who and/or what has made $100,000 watch purchases.But if you believe that’s likely to happen, you might also be interested in buying a degree from Trump University.Steve BenenSteve Benen is a producer for "The Rachel Maddow Show," the editor of MaddowBlog and an MSNBC political contributor.

The question is who — or what — might be making such a purchase and why.By Steve BenenI’ve been marveling for quite a while at Donald Trump trying to turn his candidacy into money-making opportunities. As regular readers know, the list isn’t short, and it includes everything from silver commemorative coins to the Republican’s cryptocurrency project, Trump-endorsed Bibles to gold sneakers.But the former president broke new ground last week, unveiling a line of Trump-endorsed wristwatches, the most expensive of which costs $100,000 — far more than the average American’s annual income.The question, of course, is why he would do this.The obvious answer is that the GOP candidate is facing a real cash crunch, and he’s not exactly choosy when it comes to merchandising opportunities. But with the watches in particular, there are broader concerns that don’t necessarily apply to the Republican’s other overpriced trinkets.I’ve seen some suggestions that Trump might be pulling a campaign-finance scheme: A hypothetical wealthy donor wants to give the former president a $100,000 donation — far in excess of the legal limit — so he or she buys an expensive watch. At that point, the nominee could take his cut and write a comparable check in support of his candidacy, since there is no legal limit on what candidates can spend on their own campaigns.In fact, there would be nothing stopping such donors from buying many of Trump’s watches as part of such a plan.That’s certainly possible. But it’s also possible that anyone — even foreign governments — could make the same kinds of purchases with the hopes of currying favor with the man who might soon become the leader of the free world. A Washington Post analysis noted:Here is a company encouraging people to “join President Trump’s watch community,” offering up a product that retails for six figures. Each watch, the website promises, will include a “personalized ‘Thank You’ message from President Trump,” ensuring, it seems, that Trump knows who made the purchase.And did I mention that the online FAQ noted that buyers can use cryptocurrency or wire transfers to purchase the $100,000 “Trump Victory Tourbillon Watch”? Because that’s part of the offer.I suppose it’s theoretically possible that the Republican nominee’s campaign, in the very near future, will prove their commitment to transparency by providing the public with a detailed accounting of who and/or what has made $100,000 watch purchases.But if you believe that’s likely to happen, you might also be interested in buying a degree from Trump University.Steve BenenSteve Benen is a producer for "The Rachel Maddow Show," the editor of MaddowBlog and an MSNBC political contributor.

Concerns? The time for concern was when he was grabbing pussies and bankrupting casinos and traveling to Russia for pageants. Or maybe it was when he was renting rooms and golf carts to the SS, trying to sell pardons and asking Zelensky, Raffensperger and Kemp to lie or cheat for him. Or, and stop me if you've heard this one, it was when he was stealing from the Trump Foundation charity. He might as well be selling these watches from the inside of his raincoat, ffs.

The question is who — or what — might be making such a purchase and why.By Steve BenenI’ve been marveling for quite a while at Donald Trump trying to turn his candidacy into money-making opportunities. As regular readers know, the list isn’t short, and it includes everything from silver commemorative coins to the Republican’s cryptocurrency project, Trump-endorsed Bibles to gold sneakers.But the former president broke new ground last week, unveiling a line of Trump-endorsed wristwatches, the most expensive of which costs $100,000 — far more than the average American’s annual income.The question, of course, is why he would do this.The obvious answer is that the GOP candidate is facing a real cash crunch, and he’s not exactly choosy when it comes to merchandising opportunities. But with the watches in particular, there are broader concerns that don’t necessarily apply to the Republican’s other overpriced trinkets.I’ve seen some suggestions that Trump might be pulling a campaign-finance scheme: A hypothetical wealthy donor wants to give the former president a $100,000 donation — far in excess of the legal limit — so he or she buys an expensive watch. At that point, the nominee could take his cut and write a comparable check in support of his candidacy, since there is no legal limit on what candidates can spend on their own campaigns.In fact, there would be nothing stopping such donors from buying many of Trump’s watches as part of such a plan.That’s certainly possible. But it’s also possible that anyone — even foreign governments — could make the same kinds of purchases with the hopes of currying favor with the man who might soon become the leader of the free world. A Washington Post analysis noted:Here is a company encouraging people to “join President Trump’s watch community,” offering up a product that retails for six figures. Each watch, the website promises, will include a “personalized ‘Thank You’ message from President Trump,” ensuring, it seems, that Trump knows who made the purchase.And did I mention that the online FAQ noted that buyers can use cryptocurrency or wire transfers to purchase the $100,000 “Trump Victory Tourbillon Watch”? Because that’s part of the offer.I suppose it’s theoretically possible that the Republican nominee’s campaign, in the very near future, will prove their commitment to transparency by providing the public with a detailed accounting of who and/or what has made $100,000 watch purchases.But if you believe that’s likely to happen, you might also be interested in buying a degree from Trump University.Steve BenenSteve Benen is a producer for "The Rachel Maddow Show," the editor of MaddowBlog and an MSNBC political contributor.

It’s almost four in the morning and I misread this as an article about Trump having hawks who were somehow corrupt and complicit in the sale of watches.
