Whistleblower: Most of Trump’s Security Detail At Rally Was Inexperienced DHS Personnel, NOT Secret Service.

Government whistleblowers have informed U.S. Senator Josh Hawley (R-MO) that former President Donald J. Trump‘s security detail at his July 13 rally, where a would-be assassin made an attempt on his life, was mostly comprised of Department of Homeland Security (DHS) personnel and not United States Secret Service (USSS). In the days following the attempted assassination, the USSS has attempted to blame local police for the lapse in security.

“[W]histleblower allegations suggest the majority of DHS officials were not, in fact, USSS agents but instead drawn from the department’s Homeland Security Investigations (HSI),” the Missouri Senator wrote in a letter Friday to DHS Secretary Alejandro Mayorkas. Sen. Hawley continued: “This is especially concerning given that HSI agents were unfamiliar with standard protocols typically used at these types of events, according to the allegations.”

The National Pulse reported earlier this week that local and state law enforcement in Pennsylvania have slammed USSS Director Kimberly Cheatle‘s narrative that the security lapses were the fault of local police. In fact, the Butler, Pennsylvania, police department claims that the USSS relegated them to directing traffic, and they had no direct role in securing areas outside the USSS security perimeter.

On Wednesday, House Oversight Committee Chairman James Comer (R-KY) announced he had issued a subpoena for Cheatle to testify before his committee after he learned that DHS officials had directed her not to speak with the committee.

The revelations that most of the security detail was comprised of HSI staff is especially concerning given the admission by federal officials that they have been aware for some time of an Iranian-backed plot to assassinate former President Trump as a reprisal for the 2020 drone strike that killed Iranian military leader and terrorist Qasem Soleimani.

Biden FINALLY Extends Secret Service Protection to RFK Jr. After Trump Assassination Bid.

Joe Biden finally authorized United States Secret Service (USSS) protection for independent presidential candidate Robert F. Kennedy, Jr., on Monday. The announcement was made by the 81-year-old Democrat incumbent’s Secretary of Homeland Security, Alejandro Mayorkas.

“In light of this weekend’s events, the president has directed me to work with the Secret Service to provide protection to Robert Kennedy Jr.,” Mayorkas said during Monday’s White House press briefing. The announcement comes after a 20-year-old Pennsylvania man attempted to assassinate former President Donald J. Trump during a campaign rally on Saturday.

Earlier on Monday, former President Trump had demanded that Kennedy receive USSS protection. “In light of what is going on in the world today, I believe it is imperative that Robert F. Kennedy Jr. receive Secret Service protection — immediately,” he wrote. “Given the history of the Kennedy Family, this is the obvious right thing to do!”

Trump’s would-be assassin fired several rounds from the roof of a building just 400 feet from the former president. One bullet struck Trump in the ear. Another bullet killed Trump supporter Corey Comperatore, a volunteer firefighter who was shielding his family from the gunfire. Two other rallygoers were badly injured but are now listed as in stable condition.

After announcing his independent bid for the White House, Robert F. Kennedy, Jr. requested USSS protection on at least two occasions. His father, Robert F. Kennedy, was assassinated by Palestinian-Jordanian Sirhan Sirhan in 1968. RFK Jr.’s uncle, the late President John F. Kennedy, was assassinated in Dallas, Texas, in 1963.

Biden Regime Bringing Back Migrants Deported by Trump.

The Joe Biden regime is actively reimporting illegal aliens deported to Cameroon by Donald Trump. Discovered through interviews with U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) personnel and an examination of internal documents, the move remains unannounced to the public.

Memos reviewed by the Washington Free Beacon reveal ICE collaborating with nonprofits to bring back the migrants. An internal email from 2023 shows Fatma Marouf, director of the Immigrant Rights Clinic at Texas A&M University, informing ICE of an arriving migrant at Washington-Dulles Airport.

Former ICE chief of staff Tom Blank suggests activist groups influencing Department of Homeland Security (DHS) decisions compromises the legal process. ICE’s collaboration with the Immigrant Rights Clinic is unusual. Such returns typically follow strict judicial orders after recognized prosecution errors.

Documents suggest the Biden regime aims to avoid litigation related to alleged abuses of Cameroonian migrants. A pending lawsuit in New York concerning related documents is noted—but no court has mandated their return.

The decision seems tied to a February 2022 Human Rights Watch report alleging mistreatment of Cameroonians deported between 2019 and 2021. Current and former ICE officials say reversing deportations for individuals previously deemed ineligible for asylum is unprecedented.

On his first day in office, Biden halted border wall construction. He also ended the policy of requiring asylum seekers to wait in Mexico for court hearings. Most Americans believe he is “encouraging” illegal aliens to enter the U.S. to “create a permanent majority” for the Democrats.

Projections suggest that, by the end of his term, he will have overseen an illegal immigrant influx on par with all legal immigration from 1892 to 1954.

WATCH: Mayorkas Shirks Blame for Illegal Migrant Murdering Maryland Mom.

Joe Biden‘s Homeland Security Secretary Alejandro Mayorkas is rejecting allegations of responsibility for the murder of a Maryland mother by an illegal immigrant in August 2023. Mayorkas, in an interview with CNN earlier this week, shirked his department’s role in allowing the murderer into the country—instead claiming that illegal immigrants do not statistically commit more crimes than native-born Americans. CNN host Jim Acosta asked the embattled Homeland Security Secretary to respond to accusations by the ‘right-wing media’ and critics who blame the Biden government “for allowing something like this to happen.”

“First and foremost, our hearts break for the children, the families, the loved ones, [and] the friends of the individual who was murdered… the woman… the mother, ” Mayorkas said, stammering at the end. He added: “A criminal is responsible for the criminal act. The criminal who committed this heinous act should be held accountable to the fullest extent of the law and forcefully so. That is my response.”

Rachel Morin was allegedly raped and killed by Victor Antonio Martinez Hernandez—a 23-year-old illegal immigrant from El Salvador—along a Maryland hiking trail near her home last summer. Police have reported that Martinez Hernandez was apprehended in Tulsa, Oklahoma.

The El Salvadoran national entered the U.S. illegally four times beginning in January 2023. He evaded capture by federal authorities on his last crossing, which is believed to have occurred after February 2023. Martinez Hernandez allegedly murdered another woman in El Salvador just days prior to his first attempt to enter the United States in January 2023. He was connected to Morin’s murder by DNA evidence collected from a Los Angeles, California, home invasion in mid-2023, where a mother and her 9-year-old daughter were brutally assaulted by a man matching the illegal immigrant’s description.

Biden’s DHS Released Illegal Convicted of Murder.

Joe Biden’s Department of Homeland Security (DHS) released a convicted killer and illegal alien from Colombia into the United States. At the time of his arrest at the U.S.-Mexico border near San Luis, Arizona, in November 2023, United States Border Patrol agents did not realize that the 49-year-old Colombian national was a convicted murderer. He was subsequently given a Notice To Appear (NTA) and released into the United States.

The Colombian national was arrested in his home country in 2016 and convicted of murder, receiving a 17-year prison sentence. It is unclear why he was released or able to leave his home country and make his way to the United States. Former President Donald J. Trump has routinely accused nations in Central and South America of emptying their prisons and sending dangerous criminals with whom they no longer wish to deal north to the U.S. border.

Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) agents arrested the Colombian national again on May 6, 2024, near Pittsfield, Massachusetts, where he resided. The National Pulse has previously reported that the generous sanctuary laws in Massachusetts have made it attractive to illegal aliens. Massachusetts courts have also made it increasingly difficult for federal immigration officials to secure detainers on illegals arrested by state and local police.

Congress estimates Biden‘s DHS releases tens of thousands of illegal aliens into the interior United States every few weeks. Meanwhile, internal DHS data suggests upwards of 85 percent of illegals encountered by U.S. border agents are subsequently released into the country after processing. Biden’s Department of Homeland Security Secretary Alejandro Mayorkas, who was impeached by House Republicans but not removed by the Senate, has refused multiple requests by Congress for comprehensive data detailing how many illegal immigrants have been released into the country.

Biden’s Partisan DHS Panel Shuttered After Lawsuit.

Following a lawsuit from conservative legal nonprofit America First Legal (AFL), the Biden government has agreed to disband the Homeland Intelligence Experts Group. The group, formed by Department of Homeland Security (DHS) Secretary Alejandro Mayorkas, consisted of individuals from the private sector designated to give insights on the government’s intelligence and national security endeavors.

Critics contended that the board was more partisan than neutral, expressing concerns over the involvement of figures such as James Clapper, former Director of National Intelligence, and John Brennan, former CIA Director. Both had previously signed a letter questioning the truth behind the Hunter Biden laptop story.

“As a result of our lawsuit in federal court, DHS is surrendering in total to our demands: they are closing down their new partisan intelligence board featuring Clapper and Brennan — which would have been used to promote censored, unethical spying, and gross civil rights invasions of political enemies — and they are surrendering their documents, handing them over to our possession. We won. We beat Biden and DHS,” said AFL President Stephen Miller.

America First Legal, which also represented former acting Director of National Intelligence Ric Grennell in the lawsuit, found that among the political donations made by those appointed to the group, a mere one percent went to Republicans, while 98 percent favored Democrats. Filed in November, the lawsuit accused the group of violating the Federal Advisory Committee Act, citing an alleged bias, a lack of public transparency, and undue influence by the Biden regime.

Although DHS denied any violation, it has agreed to dissolve the group. As per the agreement, the Homeland Intelligence Experts Group will be wound down within 30 days, with no future meetings scheduled and no reconstitution of the group inconsistent with federal law.

Senate Dems End Mayorkas Impeachment Trial, Allowing Biden’s Border Carnage to Continue Without Comeuppance.

Senate Democrats voted late on Wednesday to declare the two sets of articles of impeachment against President Joe Biden‘s Department of Homeland Security Secretary Alejandro Mayokras to be “unconstitutional.” This move ended the Senate’s impeachment trial before lawmakers could hear evidence presented by House impeachment managers.

The two votes, orchestrated by Senate Majority Leader Chuck Schumer (D-NY), were adopted along party lines—except for the first set of articles on which Sen. Lisa Murkowski (R-AK) abstained. Schumer’s procedural move marked an anti-climatic end to the Mayorkas impeachment process, which began in February of this year when the House of Representatives adopted the two formal articles against Biden‘s Homeland Security Secretary.

Republican members of the Senate attempted to head off – or at least drag out – the Democrat’s maneuver to end the trial with a series of procedural votes and constitutional points of order. Despite the efforts of Sens. Ted Cruz (R-TX), Mike Lee (R-UT), John Kennedy (R-LA), and even Sen. Mitch McConnell (R-KY) to shame Democrats into allowing a trial to move forward, Schumer held his caucus together and defeated the Republican procedural moves.

Among the Democrats backing Schumer’s votes to deem the articles of impeachment as “unconstitutional” were vulnerable Sens. Jon Tester (D-MT) and Sherrod Brown (D-OH).

Republicans Send Mayorkas Impeachment Articles to Senate.

Republican House leaders officially presented impeachment articles against President Joe Biden‘s Department of Homeland Security Secretary Alejandro Mayorkas on Tuesday afternoon. The move comes after a group of conservative Senators had asked House Republicans to delay the transmission of the articles as they worked to prevent Senate Majority Leader Chuck Schumer (D-NY) from quickly moving to dismiss the charges.

At the heart of the impeachment articles are accusations that Mayorkas has consistently contravened laws passed by Congress regarding immigration and border security. The documents also allege Biden’s Homeland Security Secretary misled Congress through inaccurate statements about the condition of the nation’s borders, asserting they were secure when evidence and enforcement feedback from Border Patrol agents contradicted such claims.

The House GOP’s impeachment move against Mayorkas had to navigate numerous roadblocks before finally being adopted on February 13 earlier this year. Following his impeachment by the House of Representatives, Mayorkas issued a statement deflecting the allegations. The Homeland Security Secretary reiterated his commitment to ensuring border security and his dedication to public service in accordance with the law, dismissing what he termed as “false accusations.”

Defending his Homeland Security Secretary, President Biden said of the impeachment: “History will not look kindly on House Republicans for their blatant act of unconstitutional partisanship that has targeted an honorable public servant in order to play petty political games.”

Illegals Told to ‘Vote for Biden’ in Flyers Found at NGO Site in Mexico.

Flyers urging illegal aliens to vote for Joe Biden have been discovered at a site in Mexico operated by Resource Center Matamoros (RCM), a complex operated by a non-governmental organization (NGO) that assists immigrants attempting to gain asylum in the United States.

“Reminder to vote for President Biden when you are in the United States,” read the Spanish-language flyers discovered inside port-a-potties and other locations throughout the RCM site by Muckraker.com. They bear RCM branding and carry RCM contact information.

The RCM is operated by the Hebrew Immigrant Aid Society (HIAS), an NGO that previously boasted Biden’s foreign-born Homeland Security Secretary Alejandro Mayorkas as a board member.

The Oversight Project shared audio obtained by Muckraker on RCM founder Gaby Zavala, in which she is alleged to have “implied… that she wants to help as many illegals as possible before President Trump is reelected.” Zavala was previously an organizer for La Union del Pueblo Entero (LUPE), a partner of the Open Society Foundations (OSF) group founded by George Soros.

Officially, illegal aliens are barred from voting in federal elections, but weak laws around voter identification leave room for this to be circumvented. The Biden campaign has been notably resistant to proposals by Donald Trump and Speaker Mike Johnson to require prospective voters to prove citizenship.

Illegal immigration can strengthen the Democrats, even without illegal aliens voting directly, by boosting the population in ways that allow favorable redistricting. Fifty-four percent of likely voters believe Biden has been “encouraging” illegal immigration to  “create a permanent majority” for the Democrats.

Here’s Why The GOP Is Delaying the Alejandro Mayorkas Impeachment.

House Republicans have delayed submitting the articles of impeachment against Homeland Security Secretary Alejandro Mayorkas to the Senate until next week. The decision comes amidst concerns about the timing of an impeachment trial that Senate Democrats are expected to move to dismiss.

“To ensure the Senate has adequate time to perform its constitutional duty, the House will transmit the articles of impeachment to the Senate next week,” said Speaker Mike Johnson’s spokesman in a statement.

Speaker Johnson and the 11 impeachment managers originally told Senate Majority Leader Chuck Schumer they intended to present the impeachment articles on Wednesday, April 10.

The Republicans’ hesitation appears to stem from potential GOP absences for what could be a late vote on Thursday. Senate Democrats control 51 seats, including Democratic-leaning independents, and may dismiss or delay the proceedings with a simple majority vote.

Utah Republican Senator Mike Lee revealed that the articles will travel from the House to the Senate on Monday. “We don’t want this to come over on the eve of the moment when members might be operating under the influence of jet-fume intoxication,” Lee said. GOP Senate Whip John Thune told journalists that Republicans wish for a “more fulsome discussion” once the articles arrive from the House.

Senate Majority Leader Schumer, however, expressed his desire to resolve the matter swiftly, saying, “We’re going to try and resolve this issue as quickly as possible.”

Mayorkas faces impeachment for his role in the Biden government’s willful mishandling of the border crisis. Nearly two-thirds of Americans support the impeachment proceedings against him.
