you could fact check this — there aren’t 30 million illegal immigrants and there is no evidence that the presence of an immigrant in say houston has any impact on housing in madison, wisconsin — or you could note straightforwardly that this is just nazi rhetoric
JD Vance: "A lot of young people are saying housing is way too expensive. Why is that? Because we flooded the country with 30 million illegal immigrants who were taking houses that ought by right go to American citizens."

Dear National Democrats,

You see how progressive politics can win in the cities. Now come back to rural America and help us take over the country.

On four separate occasions, Donald Trump lied about the outcome of the 2020 election. Not once did O’Donnell correct him. None of these lies made it into the final broadcast. www.democracydocket.com/opinion/60-m...

FYI: The reason you have to pay for school supplies is because GOP-dominated states have defunded public schools. Your taxes are going to pay for tax cuts to the wealthy, while your local school has to beg for supplies.

Congress abdicated its role as a separate and independent branch of government on January 20 while also relinquishing all oversight responsibility, so it’s entirely appropriate for Johnson to show that he has surrendered his gavel to the executive.
