More than six dozen illegal aliens, including children, were found in stash houses — likely operated by the Mexican drug cartels — in a wealthy region of Washington, D.C., a new report reveals.
According to Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) records, reviewed by NBC News, the illegal aliens were found in a raid that saw agents search six stash houses in the nation’s capital.
Stash houses are seemingly most common along and near the United States-Mexico border. The report indicates that the human smugglers associated with the Mexican drug cartels have forged a significant smuggling route for illegal immigration to Washington, D.C.
Immigration agents found 73 migrants living in houses operated by human smugglers in the Northwest area of Washington, D.C., on Wednesday, according to internal documents reviewed by NBC News. [Emphasis added]
The migrants, 60 adults and 13 children, were discovered by Immigration and Customs Enforcement’s Homeland Security Investigations team as part of an operation that targeted six residential homes believed to be operated by human smugglers. The agents also found $95,000 and a small amount of cocaine, the documents said. [Emphasis added]
The northwest quadrant contains some of the city’s most affluent neighborhoods, and the median home price is $750,000, according to Redfin data. The documents don’t give addresses or neighborhoods for the houses where the migrants were living or say how many were being held in a single house. [Emphasis added]
The raid comes as D.C. Mayor Muriel Bowser (D) has requested the National Guard after more than 4,000 border crossers and illegal aliens have traveled to the region in recent weeks after arriving at the southern border and being released into the U.S. interior as part of President Joe Biden’s expansive Catch and Release network.
“I’ve asked for the deployment of the Guard as long as we need the Guard to deal with the humanitarian crisis that we expect to escalate,” Bowser said this week.
Those more than 4,000 border crossers and illegal aliens arriving in D.C. are a fraction of what American border communities face every day thanks to the Biden administration’s lax enforcement agenda.
In Texas border towns, alone, nearly 130,000 border crossers and illegal aliens were caught crossing the border in June. Most recently, in the small town of Normandy, Texas — with a population of just 29 residents — about 400 border crossers and illegal aliens crossed into the area this month.
From February 2021 to May 2022, more than a million border crossers and illegal aliens have been released into American communities. Source
I’m sure that the wealthy D.C. residents who find themselves living in close proximity to “Stash houses” are livid.
But don’t you think that these people are the same ones who vote in Democrats year after year – and those Dems are responsible for Illegals flooding our country?
After a year that saw news and media sites take a big hit from the public over spin, bias, and poor coverage, many are searching for solid conservative sites that can be relied upon to keep both the “clickbait” and the fake news to a minimum. With so many news sites available, sorting the good from the bad and the downright ugly gets tricky. But fear not. We want to welcome you to the most popular Top 20 on the web: Liberty Nation’s Top 20 Conservative News Sites to read in 2022.
For the last three years, LN has generated the most wildly successful list of news sites conservative folks are actually reading. Our scoreboard remains the number one DuckDuckGo search result for Top Conservative News sites. And 2022 looks like it’s going to continue from strength to strength.
This Top 20 is not based on Alexa rankings, nor is it just a list favored by LN News; it’s much, much more. The LN methodology involves extensive polling of conservative readers, coupled with input from Liberty Nationauthors†. Our algorithm factors in last year’s results to ensure balance and to reflect changes over time.
We believe this Top 20 represents the most accurate reflection of the top news sites being read and enjoyed by conservatives on the internet.
Unlike many lists out in the Wild West of the web, Liberty Nation’s is not based purely on how many hits the site receives. Without sounding too imperious, we like to say “clickbait factories” need not apply. Instead, our Top 20 represents sites with a combination of talent, style, readability, analysis, and provocative thought. We believe conservative readers are an intelligent group, where spin is unnecessary.
Without further ado, we proudly present our countdown of Liberty Nation’s Top 20 Conservative News Sites to Read in 2022!
Its second year at the top of the list, The Federalist is a powerhouse of conservative thought with superb writers.

***Note of caution
Sometimes we Christians assume that Conservative sites will naturally be pro-Christian as well. Unfortunately, that is not always the case.
I was reading an article on Westernjournal.com last week and I was angered by some glib comments about Christianity.
I wanted to mark that news source off of my go-to list. But then “Throwing the baby out with the bathwater” came to mind. I made a mental note to be cautious with that outfit. I also wrote to the Chief Editor and told him what I thought about this. I have not heard back – no surprise there.
In these end times, we (Christians) must be so careful and discerning about everything we read or see on the internet.
