Protests have ERUPTED at multiple locations across Edinburgh, with crowds marching through the streets waving Scottish and British flags.

Chants of “Sink the boats” echo through Edinburgh tonight.

The Scots are demanding the removal of all illegal immigrants.

I notice the difference between what these people are doing—protesting—and the destruction being perpetrated by rioters.

WE AUDITED ALL 58 FOREIGN-BORN FEDERAL JUDGES SITTING ON AMERICA’S BENCH FOR LIFE.

I spent over a billion tokens and about 45 days on this deep dive.

Through this deep dive and the over a million court cases we have combed through, we have launched an American First Index (AFI) for the site. (More on it as we improve the metrics and refine deeper.)

Out of 58 sitting foreign-born Article III judges, 43 were appointed by Biden or Obama. Among those drawn from ACLU and public defender pipelines, border enforcement is blocked over 80% of the time and 60% of criminal sentences fall below federal guidelines.

We have added an interactive tool on bench receipts that allows you to drill down and look at how each of these judges behave on the bench.

This is just the start. The federal judges are easier to identify than the state level judges. I assume there are 100s if not 1000+ foreign born or first-gen American on our benches.

They do not judge on our laws, they judge on the culture they came from. This is a huge reason our country has lost its identity.

“Mrs B”:

If you think African migrants with an average IQ of 70 are rioting because they “want better education”, your IQ is even lower than theirs.

This was linked in some DataRepublican info that was posted yesterday.

Cynical Publius:

One of the hardest things for a human to do is to recognize that an institution they have devoted their life to is corrupt.

Loyalty to an institution often blinds us to the defects of that same institution. Because we define ourselves as being well-intentioned, moral and enthusiastic members of an institution, we have a hard time seeing defects in that same institution because to do so is to acknowledge that we are in some way personally enabling those defects.

This is human nature.

I am commenting on this because I have been troubled by some reactions to @DataRepublican’s recent and ongoing revelations regarding plans by ex-USAID employees to overthrow the Constitution. Many establishment types—people who have invested their lives in the U.S. military or other parts of our federal government—are mocking her findings as the insane ramblings of a conspiracy theorist, and they are similarly mocking those of us who are trying to make sure her findings reach a larger audience.

I kind of get that too—in my time in government there were, in fact, numerous outlandish conspiracy theories widely circulated in the civilian populace that I knew based on personal, insider knowledge were wildly baseless claims. One example was Hurricane Katrina. I was in the National Military Command Center coordinating support for that disaster, and the conspiracies about the CIA blowing up the levees or George Bush withholding support because he “doesn’t care about black people” were wildly inaccurate and wholly contrived. If you are an insider and you hear enough genuinely whacko conspiracy theories, you tend to start dismissing EVERYTHING you hear that smears your institution as being false.

“The institution I have devoted my life to would NEVER do that.”

That’s the thought process.

The fix is to be able to compartmentalize your personal contributions away from the defects of the institution that you had no part in. For example, I am proud of my service in Afghanistan and Iraq, without reservation, because I know the good things my service accomplished. At the same time, I acknowledge that the Department of Defense made many incredible, amoral mistakes in those wars. I am able to acknowledge those mistakes without condemning myself. It is a skill one must develop.

Which brings me back to @DataRepublican‘s findings. If you are one of those institution defenders dismissing what she is showing, you need to look again at the evidence she is presenting. She is backing up everything she reports with video and written evidence—it’s all there. Don’t dismiss her out of hand. Listen to and read the unfiltered evidence she presents from primary sources. Let go of your allegiance to the institutions of our federal government long enough to realize that for decades USAID has been a rogue agency inside our government, and now that President Trump and Secretary Rubio have pushed them out the door, they are conspiring to overthrow our system of government using the very tools they developed during their time with USAID.

It’s all there. Go look for yourself. And realize you can safely condemn the institution without condemning yourself.
