What a wonderful addition to our populace in 1975, and she still cares! That’s immigration making the US even greater.

Stephen Miller Is an Immigration Hypocrite. I Know Because I’m His Uncle.
If my nephew’s ideas on immigration had been in force a century ago, our family would have been wiped out.

A government employee asked Sen. Jim Banks what he thinks about the mass firings. Banks replied, "You probably deserved it." The ex-employee asked WHY? Banks stated, "because you look like a clown." The audacity and arrogance from this man is outrageous. WATCH: fox59.com/video/senato...
Senator Jim Banks tells fired federal worker he ‘probably deserved it’
A viral video posted online appears to show U.S. Sen. Jim Banks (R-Ind.) telling a fired federal worker that he “probably deserved it” because he seems “like a clown.”

A fired HHS worker asks a senator about layoffs that are hurting services for “people with disabilities” and asks what he’ll do to help them.
Once the senator is safely behind his staff in the elevator, he ignores the suffering & replies that the worker is a “clown” who “deserved” to be fired.

NEW — This AM former HHS staffers confronted Sen. Jim Banks (R-IN) about slashing budgets and staff, per video shared with me by Mack Schroeder, a former Budget Analyst for the Office of the Secretary.
Banks tells Schroeder he "probably deserved" to lose his job "because you seem like a clown."

Raskin: Would it be problem for it to be standard practice to conduct sensitive foreign policy on a signal chat group? It just came out that Waltz’s team set up 20 signal group chats for crises across the world… I’m sure this will raise the question on whether he should continue in that position
