Accused of snatching 11-year-old and sexually assaulting her until child's mother intervened

A migrant arrested for sexual crimes had been given a date to appear before an immigration judge several years after illegally crossing the border, demonstrating how the court backlog is potentially helping criminal aliens remain in the country.

A 20-year-old Guatemalan national was arrested for kidnapping a minor and sexual assault, the Palm Beach County Sheriff’s Office announced on Monday. Marvin Perez Lopez is accused of snatching an 11-year-old girl and raping her until the girl’s mother intervened.

Perez Lopez allegedly grabbed the 11-year-old by the hand, took her into his van and forced himself on her, despite her repeated pleas to stop, according to local reporting. The child’s mother began to look for her when she then noticed the van close to the apartment building both shared by the victim and Perez Lopez.

The mother began to bang on the van and shout, prompting the Guatemalan man to flee the scene. She later called the police and he was taken into local custody, where he is being held without bond.

Local authorities confirmed Perez Lopez entered the U.S. illegally earlier this year.

Trump hates Ukraine because Zelenskyy didn't give him evidence against Biden like he asked for.

The primary problem was, Biden was already President and Zelenskyy very badly needed arms from the US.

So, it was either provide Trump with the evidence of Biden's activities there or get supplied arms from the Biden administration.

There was only one choice for Zelenskyy, get arms from the US to push back the Russian invader.


So basically if a country doesn't comply with Trump they don't get any support from this country?


Not a sound foreign policy

Texas / In Their Own Words: House Runoff Candidates on the Speaker
« Last post by Elderberry on Today at 11:37:33 am »
Texas Scorecard by  Amelia McKenzie and Sydnie Henry   | May 6, 2024

Texas Scorecard asked candidates what they would like to see in a House Speaker Candidate.

With the primary runoff election mere weeks away, Texas Scorecard reached out to all runoff candidates for state representative to ask what they are looking for in a speaker candidate.

The Speaker of the Texas House is elected by fellow House members and wields considerable power as the arbitrator of committee assignments and order on the floor.

Current House Speaker Dade Phelan (R-Beaumont) has faced considerable ire from citizens for appointing Democrats to chair key committees in the House and allowing Republican priorities to die without a vote. 

A group of current and future House Republicans created a “Contract with Texas” to end “liberal dysfunction” in the House, proposing a dozen reforms promising to “improve the integrity, transparency, and efficiency of the House.”

They want the next Speaker of the House to implement the following 12 reforms:

1.   Only solicit support for Speakership from Republican members
2.   End the practice of awarding Democrats with committee chairmanships
3.   Ensure all GOP legislative priorities receive a floor vote before any Democrat bills
4.   Replace the current liberal Parliamentarians with staff committed to only offering advice on adherence to House rules, not to advancing their personal ideology
5.   Limit the Speaker to two terms to reduce their power over individual members
6.   Ensure there are no longer any Democrat-majority committees
7.   Stop parliamentary abuse by requiring only substantial adherence to House rules to keep hyper-technical points of order from killing good legislation
8.   Allow audio/video recording of all House proceedings, including point of order debates
9.   Start substantive work as soon as Session begins to end delays that kill priority legislation
10.   Reform the Calendars Committee to increase transparency and accountability
11.   Select a Republican as Speaker Pro Tempore
12.   Decentralize power by prohibiting the distribution of political funds from the Speaker

Below is what the Republican House Runoff candidates have to say on what they would like to see in a speaker.

There is alot of evidence that points to that, that is deliberately being ignored to fearmonger climate change. In many cases it's the land sinking not the seas rising.
