The View from Here

Today’s featured image is of the Oneida river. The river drains Oneida Lake and joins with the Seneca river to form the Oswego river.


A newly announced ICE operation has taken 176 illegal immigrants into custody. The arrests were made in Philadelphia, Denver, New York, Washington, Baltimore and Seattle, all sanctuary cities. “Operation Rise is proof-positive that we will never back down from enforcing the rule of law, with or without the cooperation of local political leaders,” Chad Wolf, acting secretary of the Department of Homeland Security, said at a Philadelphia news conference.


A few observations about last night’s town halls.

First, and I don’t know why it surprised me, Savannah Guthrie is the worst kind of hack. She allowed the audience a grand total of 10 questions, while she asked 47. She also continued to push debunked narratives.

I didn’t watch much of the Biden town hall, mainly because I knew there would be no substantive questions asked or answered. Even so, Joe looked like he was just about done in before the event was over.

And then there was this from the Trump event. The woman is Mayra Joli, is an immigration attorney, former beauty queen and pro-Trump activist who ran for Congress in Florida in 2018.


I’ve been a little quiet about the Biden email thing. I instinctively distrust the type of info that’s being presented. I’ll give you the Steele ‘dossier’ as an example of why I’m skeptical. And to be honest, I was more invested in the way Twitter and Facebook tried to spike the story. However, the fact that the Biden camp isn’t coming out and saying they’re fabricated, and none of the allegations are false, leads me to believe the emails and such are in fact real. Another tranche of emails, this time from a former associate of Hunter Biden, have come to light. This time, they describe in detail Hunter playing on his father’s name with the Chinese and brokering meetings between his Chinese partners and Obama/Biden administration officials. Stay tuned folks, this is likely to get interesting.
