“In today’s border crisis, a glaring 150,578 Notices To Appear were filed in July. This shocking influx, revealed by the Transactional Records Access Clearinghouse, dwarfs the 45,000 migrants per month the Biden administration said it would accept. Undeniable spikes in immigration and over 820,000 migrants gaining entry this year underscore an alarming trend. Fumbling border defense efforts and unchecked “parole” power from the administration compound the issue, impacting cities like New York, and calling for urgent and respectful national conversation grounded in libertarian values.”

“The transgender athlete debate is lighting up, catapulted into the limelight by none other than former NBA star and outspoken human rights activist, Enes Kanter Freedom. His audacious, satirical social media posts challenge the policy of allowing transgender women to compete in women’s sports, sparking intense discussions around fairness, gender identity, and societal norms. While his approach courts controversy, few can dispute the fact that Freedom has kicked the ball into our court, forcing us to engage with this contentious hot-button issue.”

In a bold stand against uncontrolled immigration, residents of Queens, New York City, resist the city’s proposal to erect a migrant relief shelter amidst them. This once-proud sanctuary city is buckling under the strain of attempting to house its massive influx of migrants — a profound wake-up call to the ills of border crises. The dire dilemma at hand: allowing our streets to be overrun with migrants or providing makeshift shelter in inappropriate places. As these challenges intensify, other cities aspiring to sanctuary status must consider the painful lessons learned here before recklessly embarking on a similar path.
