Biden ‘ignoring’ federal law with sweeping executive orders, Texas AG Paxton says
close Video Biden is ‘out of control’ and ‘overstepping his constitutional authority’ with executive orders: Texas AG Ken Paxton joins ‘Sunday Morning Futures’ to discuss his ongoing legal challenge against the president’s proposed deportation freeze. He also explains how recent executive orders on immigration are affecting his state. President Biden is 'ignoring' federal law with sweeping executive orders on immigration he has signed since taking office, Texas Attorney General Ken Paxton said Sunday, creating a "huge risk" for his state. Paxton told Maria Bartiromo on "Sunday Morning Futures" that Biden was "out of control" and "overstepping his Constitutional role" in signing the executive orders meant to roll back the Trump administration's immigration policies. BIDEN SIGNS THREE IMMIGRATION ORDERS IN LATEST MOVE TO REVERSE KEY TRUMP POLICIES "You’ve got Democrats controlling both the House and Senate so he can make these changes," Paxton said. "He doesn’t have to basically issue edicts from on high, ignoring federal law." Biden on Tuesday signed three more executive orders proposing changes to immigration, including the creation of a task force to push forward with the reunification of migrants who were separated from family members at the border, a strategy to address "irregular migration" at the southern border, and one that will set up a review of Trump-era policies on legal immigration. "I'm not making new law, I'm eliminating bad policy," Biden said from the Oval Office at the time. Biden had earlier signed executive orders that reversed Trump-era travel restrictions on countries deemed a security risk, and sought to impose a 100-day moratorium on deportations.

Paris Firemen Admitted to Sex With Her at 13. France is Actually Debating if It Was Rape
The case of a Parisian woman who says she was groomed for sex and repeatedly raped by 20 firemen over a period of two years from the time she was 13 has divided French society. The case, which has become part of recent uncomfortable conversations among France’s thinking class about age of consent, incest and exploitation will be heard before France’s highest court on Wednesday. On Sunday, hundreds of women took to the streets of Paris to demand justice and an end to what they call the cultural acceptance of victim blaming and blatant rape habitually disguised as consent. The woman, now 25, who the French media have dubbed “Julie” has accused all 20 firemen from various fire stations in Paris of rape after a fireman referred to as “Pierre” assisted her when she suffered a severe anxiety seizure in 2008. Pierre then allegedly found her contact information in her medical file and started bombarding her with “affectionate messages” that soon turned sexual in nature. She says he convinced her to undress during a video call, which she did. He then started passing her phone number to other firemen who asked her to do the same. She wrote in her diary at the time that she was “terrified and paralyzed with fear” over what was happening. Three of the firemen accused by the woman have admitted to having sex with her, sometimes in groups and often in their full uniforms. On one occasion in November 2009, she had been taken to one of the firefighters homes when he invited two colleagues over—all three raped her in full uniform. The three have been charged with “sexual violence” which carries a prison term of just seven years. None of the men are charged with rape, which carries 20 year prison sentence. The firefighters who admit to having sex with the minor insist it was consensual and that the then young teen had instead happily obliged, and even flirted with them. One of the accused said he had sex ...
