The Biden administration’s plan to open Obamacare enrollment to Deferred Action for Childhood Arrivals recipients will add billions to the national deficit, a Congressional Budget Office report found. Roughly 110,000 illegal immigrants in the DACA program will sign up for Obamacare, adding about $7 billion to the federal deficit over the 2025-2034 period, according to an analysis released Monday by the CBO. The new estimate comes after President Joe Biden said he would change the rules to Obamacare to make DACA recipients eligible. “Under current law, CBO and [the Joint Committee on Taxation] estimate, about 110,000 DACA recipients will enroll in marketplace coverage, on average, in each year because of the rule, increasing the deficit by an estimated $7 billion over the 2025-2034 period,” the report stated. “The costs from additional marketplace enrollment are offset slightly in the agencies’ estimates by decreases in emergency Medicaid spending as people become eligible to claim the credit.” The American Rescue Plan Act of 2021—which was later extended through 2025—reduced the maximum amount that eligible enrollees must pay toward premiums for health insurance purchased through Obamacare, according to the report. The CBO predicts that DACA recipients enrolling in subsidized coverage would increase by 140,000, making the final cost of the new rule around $9 billion, if these tax credits are made permanent. The CBO report was conducted by request from Republican Reps. Jodey Arrington of Texas and Jason Smith of Missouri, chairmen of the Budget Committee and the Ways and Means Committee, respectively. Biden announced in early May that he would allow illegal immigrants given deportation relief under DACA, individuals commonly referred to as “Dreamers,” the ability to enroll in Obamacare. Under current law, those not lawfully present in the United States are ineligible for Obamacare subsidies, but the Biden administration is working around this stipulation by modifying the definition of “lawfully present.” Dreamers will officially be able to begin enrolling in the Obamacare marketplace on Nov. 1, according to the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services. Biden announced an executive order last week giving amnesty to well over half a million illegal immigrants in the country who are married to U.S. citizens, a move that critics have panned as another incentive for illegal immigration amid an ongoing border crisis.

Police Sergeant James Givens, a seasoned veteran with over 26 years of service in the Cincinnati Police Department, never expected that one of the most memorable calls for help would come from a goose. On what seemed like an ordinary day, Givens was in his patrol vehicle when he noticed something unusual. A goose was...

Monday June 24, 2024 marked the two year anniversary of the Dobbs decision when the Supreme Court of the United States decided to overturn Roe v. Wade. On Monday, both pro-lifers and pro-aborts gathered in front of the Court to share their opinions. The pro-aborts, in partnership with the Women’s March, put on an event called DC Women’s Strike. They demanded that abortion was part of "reproduction" and "healthcare." MRCTV spoke to some attendees. They insisted that those who thought abortion was murder, who know that life begins at conception and who care about both babies and their moms are the ignorant ones. On the other side, pro-lifers emphasized that there are two-lives at stake when it comes to abortion and that both need to be loved, protected and respected. It was rather comical to see the pro-aborts get caught up in their words and confused when challenged. It really seems that they’re just walking bumper stickers with no actual knowledge of what happens during an abortion but, what’s new!? Check out the video!

The Federalist Editor-in-Chief Mollie Hemingway highlighted the ways Big Tech disseminates propaganda to an extent that would make even George Orwell blush. Hemingway discussed the dire implications of Big Tech’s intrinsic biases in the June 19 episode of the You’re Wrong podcast with Federalist Senior Editor David Harsanyi. She stressed that Big Tech’s decision to tip the scales of political discourse is a major threat to a free society, the implications of which dwarf the other forms of election interference. “Well, first of all I think violations of First Amendment rights are actually…I think that’s worse than election interference as bad as election interference is,” Hemingway said. “It’s all related to self-government, right? Like if we don’t have the ability to seek truth and argue for truth and convince other people of truth, it’s the same thing as election interference where you don’t have the right to pick your own people.” Hemingway stressed that common manipulations tactics employed by Big Tech, like biased search algorithms, have the ability to dramatically shift public opinion, ensuring that competing narratives are suffocated before they can be deliberated upon by the public. “It affects the way people think about every issue,” Hemingway argued. “Take something like trans issues. Polling shows that even the vast majority of Democrats are like ‘No, I don’t believe men should be able to play on girls’ teams,’ and yet you watch the media and you do the Google search, and everything will be like fed to you like you’re the crazy person for thinking that men shouldn’t be on girls’ sports teams and, you know, that affects who you vote for and what you think gets normalized.” Hemingway also stressed the effectiveness of Google’s suppression of true but ideologically inconvenient narratives, which the tech giant hides by burying in the search results.  “You remember that old saying about how Osama Bin Laden was hard to find and that they finally found him on the second page of Google results?” Hemingway asked. “Like, the joke being, that’s an impossible place to find anything. Well, try the 20th page of Google results, you know, where the first page is this left-wing site and that left-wing site and everything is like pushing it. And then that becomes what Wikipedia says, and that’s what feeds into the AI systems so … it’s just overwhelming.” Google has received criticism for its handling of election related search results, specifically regarding the 2024 elections. In one study, MRC Free Speech America found that Google’s search results were burying the campaign websites of prominent Republican presidential candidates Donald Trump, Ron DeSantis and Nikki Haley while promoting the website of obscure candidate Will Hurd.  Google was also promoting the websites of President Joe Biden and Marianne Williamson while burying the website of Independent candidate Robert F. Kennedy Jr. In a separate study, MRC found that Google was hiding Trump’s website in the wake of his conviction on 34 felony counts in New York City. Conservatives are under attack.

The state of Louisiana has just become the first state to require the Ten Commandments to be displayed in public school classrooms. Those who reject the change are claiming this violates separation of church and state as well as the First Amendment. While Allie Beth Stuckey believes the negative reaction is “understandable,” she calls it the “wrong way to think about this story.” The legislation was signed into law by Louisiana's Republican Gov. Jeff Landry last Wednesday. The law requires a posterized display of the Ten Commandments in a large, easily readable font in all public classrooms, from kindergarten to state-funded universities. Each poster will be paired with a four paragraph context statement explaining how the Ten Commandments were a prominent part of American public education for almost three centuries. Opponents, like the ACLU, claim the law will “keep children who have different beliefs from feeling safe at school.” “The ACLU is extremely communist in nature, and it consistently is on the side of opposing constitutional rights if that means defending progressivism. They are much closer to progressive ideologues than they are to constitutionalists,” Stuckey explains. While detractors claim the law violates the separation of church and state, Stuckey notes that “the separation of church and state is a principle, a concept, that is not found in the Constitution.” “It’s not found in the Declaration of Independence,” she continues. “That phrase is found in a letter from Thomas Jefferson to Danbury Baptist in 1802.” “It is a principle that was established, that was acknowledged really, more for the protection of the church, so that the state would not pray upon the church, more than the church praying upon the state,” she adds. While she disagrees with the detractors, she has a theory as to why they’re so against the move. “They do not want students to think that America is exceptional, that it was based on really good, timeless, tested, and true values, that it was Christianity that led the charge of abolition, that it was Christianity that forged Western civilization, that established the concept of human rights, that completely upended the godless, pagan, cruel, human sacrificing world and created every good thing that we have today,” Stuckey explains. Rather, they want to “teach kids to be sexually deviant, communist activists.” “It’s really not about the First Amendment at all, because these same people, who are so concerned about the First Amendment when it comes to this, I mean, they would arrest you for misgendering a dude so fast,” she adds.

"America's Most Wanted" host John Walsh recently warned that the border crisis is fueling child sex trafficking, Fox News Digital reported.During a red-carpet event earlier this month, Walsh discussed how Mexican cartels and Central American gangs are working together to turn a profit trafficking unaccompanied minors. He explained that parents are paying criminal organizations to take their children under the guise that they will safely transport them to the U.S. to find work opportunities.'Who took those kids? We know who took them — sex traffickers.'"We need people battling because of what's happening at the wall," Walsh told Fox News Digital. "What's happening at the border is an incredible travesty.""The cartels bring [children] to the border. They push them across. They get paid by the parents who think they're getting their daughter or son a job in America. They're not," Walsh explained. "They get them across the border, the cartels, then the gangs take over — MS-13, the Venezuelan gangs, violent. And those little girls and some little boys are being trafficked. They move every couple days.""These gangs from Central America — horrible," Walsh continued. "We finally got the Homeland Security, [Alejandro] Mayorkas, to admit that they have pushed across 78,000 unaccompanied minors since November. Where did those kids go? Who took those kids? We know who took them — sex traffickers. So our work's going to be cut out big-time."According to Customs and Border Protection data, Border Patrol agents at the southern border have processed more than 82,000 unaccompanied minors from October 2023 through May 2024.Walsh's son and cohost, Callahan, told Fox News Digital, "America's the greatest country in the world, but our crime rates are high.""'America's Most Wanted' gives communities and individuals a way to turn those bad guys in without having to call the cops," he stated. "Not everybody wants to call the cops. People don't want to give their name and be dragged into a courtroom."The television series has led to 1,200 arrests and 61 child rescues. In addition to hosting the popular crime-fighting show, Walsh also cofounded the National Center for Missing & Exploited Children with his wife, Revé, after the abduction and murder of their son, Adam."I always believed that people would help if you showed them a way to help," Walsh told Fox News Digital. "I've caught guys in 45 countries. I say one thing, 'Don't tell me your name. Tell me where the dirtbag is. Nobody's gonna come and drag you to court. Nobody's going to follow with vengeance. No vengeance. Tell me — I don't care who you are — I'll catch him.' And that's how we've caught so many guys. So many guys. Because the public trusts me. The public worldwide. And we get those bad guys and we find those missing kids."Like Blaze News? Bypass the censors, sign up for our newsletters, and get stories like this direct to your inbox. Sign up here!
