Florida is now the fastest-growing state in the country, for the first time since 1957.

For the first time in more than 60 years, Florida is now the fastest-growing state in the country, according to data released by the Census Bureau on Thursday.
Florida's population grew to 22,244,823 between 2021 and 2022, an increase of 1.9% in the span of one year. It's an impressive feat considering that Florida is already the third-most populous state in the union. The state's growth rate had to be significant to cinch the top spot out of all 50 states, something Florida hasn't done since 1957.

The South as a whole gained 1,200,000+ residents. Meanwhile, the North and Midwest lost population. Texas has now passed 30 million residents, making it the only state besides declining California in the 30 million club.

In case you missed it, Kamala Harris and "Second Gentleman" Doug Something wished you a happy Kwanzaa.

Her staff failed to position her for success again.

CNN's honcho Chris Licht has told Don LeMon to remain sober during work for one night.

Very White Knight Anderson Cooper rushes in to defend Don LeMon's inalienable right to get drunk and embarrass himself on camera, by shouting, Racism!

Sister Toldjah at RedState:

According to an article from Variety at the time:

While Anderson Cooper will still be able to imbibe during primetime hours -- along with his co-host Andy Cohen -- while the duo holds forth in Times Square, correspondents and anchors who may have slurped down alcoholic concoctions on camera (or off) in the past will be required to halt the practice.
"[CNN CEO Chris] Licht told employees he felt on-camera drinking eroded the credibility of CNN personnel and damaged the 'respectability' they may enjoy among viewers," Variety also noted in their story.
Though there's no word yet on whether any CNN personalities will be allowed to smoke a joint on live TV, as happened in 2017 or jump into a liquor-filled tub with a drag queen, which happened in 2019, it appears that longtime CNNer Don Lemon will be hardest hit and has let it be known that he is not happy about it. And the "exception to the rule" thing with Cooper and Cohen being allowed to drink has also reportedly been taken back:

This year, Licht said in one internal meeting that Cooper and Cohen will be permitted to imbibe, prompting Cooper to tell network leadership he's concerned at the perception that only the two white hosts are permitted to drink.
Licht then walked that rule back: "Chris made an offhand remark in a town hall about drinking during the NYE program," an aide said. "Shortly after, he proactively reached out to Anderson to clarify that his comments were meant as a joke and that he preferred no drinking on air at all."
In any event Lemon, who will likely be dispatched to hard-partying New Orleans, was not pleased about the sober state of things, another CNN insider said.

Is it really that important to him that he get drunk during working hours?

I guess so.

Priorities.

1100 illegal aliens crossed the West Texas border in just five hours yesterday.

Del Rio Sector Border Patrol agents apprehended more than 1,100 migrants during a five-hour period Tuesday morning. The apprehensions took place in a small section of the border south of Eagle Pass. Agents apprehended more than 400 in a single group.
Between 2 a.m. and 6 a.m. Tuesday morning, agents apprehended approximately 1,000 migrants who crossed the border from Piedras Negras, Mexico, into the U.S., according to a source operating under the umbrella of U.S. Customs and Border Protection. The source reported the largest group to be more than 400 migrants who crossed at the same time.
In addition, agents apprehended more than 200 migrants in a single group further north but still on the south side of Eagle Pass.
The source said the migrants consisted mainly of Cuban migrants. The groups also included migrants from Ecuador and Nicaragua.
Human smugglers use the large migrant group tactic to tie up Border Patrol resources for hours. This enables them to move drugs and other high-value human cargo" across the border with less chance of being apprehended. The large groups who crossed in the overnight hours this morning caused agents to remain on duty for nearly 12 hours, the source stated. Other resources had to be called in early.

A poll shows that the leftwing media has successfully blocked most of the public from knowing about the scale of Biden's invited invasion.

Public opposition to President Joe Biden's lax border policies surges when voters discover the huge scale of the economic migration, according to polling data from a December survey by Harvard CAPS/Harris Poll.
The poll asked 1,851 registered voters:

Over 2.75 million came into the United States illegally over a twelve-month period ending September 2022, more than 1 million more immigrants the previous 12 month period. Given these numbers, should the administration continue its current policies or issue new, stricter policies to reduce the flow of people coming across the border?
In response, 81 percent of Republicans and 68 percent of swing-voting independents called for stricter policies.
Just one-third of all voters were content with current lax border policies once they learned the real numbers, according to the poll
A prior question showed just 56 percent of independents disapproved of Biden's lax policies.
The problem and opportunity for Republicans is that the establishment media hides the scale of Biden's migration, as well as the pocketbook impacts on American families. Establishment media outlets also refuse to sum up the annual inflow of legal and illegal migrants and instead prefer to treat illegal migration as a non-economic issue of civil rights or of law and order.

Knoxville's mayor attended an "all-ages" drag show. It contained nudity and simulated anal sex.

And a Democrat mayor was proudly in attendance.

The mayor of Knoxville, Tennessee, attended a lewd Christmas-themed drag show that was marketed for "all-ages."
Democrat Mayor Indya Kincannon bragged on Facebook that she attended a "Drag Queen Christmas" in Knoxville. In a post on Facebook, Kincannon remarked "So glad to be at 'A Drag Queen Christmas' with so many merry Knoxville folks! It's going to be a festive night." She added the hashtag "#Knoxvilleforall."

This is what "all ages" entertainment looks like, according to Groomers:

13 Libertarians want open borders because they don't think government should be placing restrictions on people's free movement around the globe.

Leftists want open borders to flood the country with immigrants and collapse the system.

Libertarians side with the leftists, because in either case the border is open.

42 Republicans' "problem and opportunity", lol. It's neither. 98% of the elected GOP would quadruple the flow of illegals if they could. Obviously. They've facilitated it and blocked any action to curtail it *for decades*.

And redundant evidence of what clueless idiots most Americans are. They have to be informed about basic facts of today's (and the last few decades') situation - THEN they object to it. Hilarious.

Like the jaw-dropping surveys showing whatever% of voters would have switched their votes from the absurd vile vegetable IF they knew about the Hunter story (which is only the tip of the Biden crime family iceberg of course). So shutting down the oil industry, pushing trans nonsense, egging on national riotous disorder by racist thugs, clearly favoring no border or rule of law, and promising even *more* C19 idiocy was OK with them - BUT the laptop story? OMG, we can't vote for someone with that baggage!

Texas is the one state that has a serious chance of making a go of independence. Primarily because it has its own electric grid (except the Panhandle). It also has deepwater ports, natural resources, and of course lots of armed citizens. Other than Alaska, the rest of the states are too interdependent IMO.

75 Unscientific sampling, but regular contacts with BP over the last few years (actually extending back to pre-Trump) has suggested some pretty clear patterns. The older more veteran guys were (pre-2017) very demoralized, for obvious reasons (one notable officer who came into the range and joined volunteered without prompting, right before the 2016 election, that "if something doesn't change in November, don't know what I'll do"). Same thing with the older guys now, of course.

Younger ones are pumped up, often action-chasing sorts of the kind you always have (and need) in a service like that. They acknowledge the s**t-show, recognize they can make a difference only on the margins and only WRT the worst, most violent illegals - but they like the adrenaline.

But given the actual way things work now, very open question whether any of it is worth the bother, from a national standpoint. And the voters should be given what they want, good and hard (though that, too, is obviously pointless, as there is no learning curve or even basic civic competence in the wider population).

78 Around here, the Knoxville mayor is more often referred to as KinKaren for her desire to shut down bars and restaurants during the FauxVid pandemic.

The Knox County Mayor Glen Jacobs (aka Kane) is far more popular and representative of the population.

A lot of transplants that live in the downtown Knoxville area have teamed with the housing project residents to make Knoxville proper left-leaning.

80 47 Willowed:
Texas is the one state that has a serious chance of making a go of independence. Primarily because it has its own electric grid (except the Panhandle). It also has deepwater ports, natural resources, and of course lots of armed citizens. Other than Alaska, the rest of the states are too interdependent IMO.

85 And border policy for an already-prevalent disease is stupid, for the record. For the same reason all the other "mitigation" policies are irrelevant/moot/ineffective. The only bit of technical advice that Trump received, far as I know, that had any connection to epidemiological reality. He went against it, which is fine/harmless basically, which showed good instincts. But in this case instincts are wrong.

If they had one of those in my town I would attend.
I would get other church members (the Moronic one's) to also attend. We wouldn't be inquisitive or disruptive or anything like that. Nah ah.

170 131 I noticed CNN and MSNBC reporting on border crossings in recent days, but hiding the true scale of the crisis. Rather, the reports are in the 1,500 range and about people having trouble finding shelter.

Saw a report on CBS bemoaning the "Immigrants" having to sleep on the streets of El Paso. They blurred their faces, I guess, so ICE can't somehow track them down, sleeping on the streets.

180 Are you saying that going to see "Rocky Horror Picture Show" made you gay? I went to many of them carrying all the stuff, my spray bottle, some toast and they gave you plastic red lips at the door. Still got my lips. Most all the crowd was young and just knew the movie by heart.

Of course there is. You draw the line at exposing children to any of it.
Then you dig in at the 5 yard line and wait for the onslaught.

Yes, there is.

They follow her decrees, or they're booked for immediate flights on Aero Pinochet.

191 "And the voters should be given what they want, good and hard (though that, too, is obviously pointless, as there is no learning curve or even basic civic competence in the wider population)." Posted by: rhomboid

imo "the masses" are always led by the 10-20% on one (evil) side or the other (good) side. Just the nature of the demographic beast.

So the fight is between those two "extremes". I tend not to blame "the masses" ... I blame the sellouts like Mitch and Kevin that deceive while taking bribes. But that is a dumbed down analysis of my point.

Sodom and Gomora, God only asked for a few good men ... couldn't find them. (or I may be thinking of another OT account, ha)

192 >>Over 2.75 million came into the United States illegally over a twelve-month period ending September 2022, more than 1 million more immigrants the previous 12 month period.

Or said another way, the Junta has added a state larger than the population of Louisiana in under two years.

If you add that to the roughly 1 million people we allow in through legal immigration, we've roughly added the population of Indiana in two years.

I'd say this is unsustainable but nobody's going to stop it until we collapse into a black hole of tacos and Lo Mein Noodles.
