🚨MEDIA RELEASE🚨

-For Immediate Release-

The Bedford County Sheriff’s Office has received questions from concerned residents regarding a report circulating on social media that Bedford County, as well as some of our surrounding counties, has been designated as a “Sanctuary County” and does not cooperate with Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE). The claim is based on a June 2024 ICE Detainer Acceptance Report published by the Center for Immigration Studies (CIS). It should be noted that CIS is a private organization, and any conclusion drawn is theirs and not a pronouncement or designation by any official federal agency or government entity. While we do not definitively know at this time where this organization obtained its data or how they manipulated it, it appears to have come from information generated from a Freedom of Information Act request to Immigration and Customs Enforcement which listed the Blue Ridge Regional Jail, which serves as institutional housing of both pre-and post-trial detainees for Bedford County and other local jurisdictions, as a “Limited Cooperation Institution”. We believe the information provided by this private organization, and its subsequent “designation” of Bedford County, to be erroneous and misleading.

The Code of Virginia specifically addresses the duties of the Sheriff and/or detention facility director to determine the residency status and citizenship status of those arrested for certain crimes, and report such arrests to federal authorities, pursuant to § 53.1-218 and § 19.2-83.2 . In 2020, despite the opposition of many Virginia Sheriffs, including Sheriff Miller, the then Democrat-controlled Virginia General Assembly limited the inquiry of arrestee’s citizenship status to felony crimes only. You can review the passage of the amendment of these Code sections here:

https://lis.virginia.gov/cgi-bin/legp604.exe?201+ful+CHAP0995

Despite these legislative obstacles, Sheriff Miller has not only worked with our federal partners to address the challenge of illegal immigration, but has enlisted a whole-of-government approach, enlisting the aid of Bedford County Zoning Enforcement, the Virginia Department of Professional and Occupational Regulation (DPOR) and the Virginia Department of Labor and Industry to go after those who facilitate and employ individuals who have broken our immigration laws.

To be clear, Bedford County is not a “Sanctuary County”, no matter what the pronouncement of a study of dubious reliability. Bedford County welcomes anyone who follows the laws of the United States and the Commonwealth of Virginia. But your Sheriff’ Office remains steadfastly committed to enforcing the rule of law and cooperating with our federal partners in the investigation and detention of any illegal immigrant.

~ Sheriff Mike Miller

TECH SUIT

Ukrainian forces have begun training and testing exoskeletons for battlefield use. Soldiers from the 147th Separate Artillery Brigade are using them in the Pokrovsk sector for both logistics and frontline operations. The goal is to reduce physical strain, especially when loading heavy artillery shells into howitzers without automatic loaders. Artillery crews can handle up to 1200 kg of ammunition per day, and early tests show that exoskeletons help them work faster and with less fatigue Above all, by improving the conditions for those soldiers on the front lines who handle such heavy loads, plus the stress of work. Seeking to reduce overall fatigue in the troops

Blue Owl

🇺🇸 Blue Owl Capital just disclosed that investors tried to pull 40.7% of one fund and 21.9% of another in a single quarter, and both funds gave the same answer, you can only have 5% back, and everyone else waits in line.

This is a bank run, not a normal withdrawal.

Wall Street spent the last decade selling millions of investors on something called semi-liquid private credit, higher yields, steady income and the promise you could get your money back every quarter if you needed it. What they buried in the fine print was what happens when too many people try to leave at the same time.

Analysts who have covered private credit for decades say nothing on this scale has ever been reported before at any major private credit manager.

These funds do not hold stocks you can sell on a Tuesday afternoon, they hold private loans to mid sized companies that cannot be liquidated quickly without destroying the price for every investor still trapped inside.

War Time

🇺🇸 President Trump wants to switch to war economy in 2027 with massive increase in military spending and massive cuts to healthcare and other domestic agencies

Once a deficit hawk — he said in 2016 that he thought he could balance the budget in five years — Trump ended his first term with $7.8 trillion in added debt. His 2027 proposal is expected to give an update on 10-year deficit projections currently estimated at around $16 trillion.

The GOP's message for the Midterms will be focused on the "need" for a massive defense build up while the Democrats' message will be focused on affordability.

The fiscal 2027 budget will be the first time Trump puts his second-term governing agenda into one comprehensive document — with the numbers to back it up. The budget he released last year lacked detailed line-by-line spending targets and the economic assumptions necessary to project the long-term cost of his proposals.

Investors in US Treasuries will be looking to see if the debt and ...
