If what Miller says is true, why does research consistently show that immigrants (including the undocumented) commit fewer crimes than U.S.-born citizens?

Metlife
Dominion Energy
United States Steel
In recent years, they all paid their execs more than they paid in taxes.
This is what a corporate-rigged system looks like.

Trump is stooping so low that he’s gutting the federal Office of Special Education.

71.5% of ICE detainees have no criminal convictions, according to government data.
Don’t fall for Trump’s lies about targeting the “worst of the worst.”
As Trump's regime terrorizes communities to fill up detention centers, remember that some of his biggest donors are private prison corporations.

Just a year ago, that was illegal in the United States and now it’s commonplace.

The shooting of Charlie Kirk was a right on right crime. He was shot by a groyper follower of Nick Fuentes. Now, I am going to treat Charlie Kirk like Republicans treat victims of school shootings. I am going to forget he exists. Watch this.

I think this needs to be noted again. Charlie Kirk was the arch enemy of the Groypers. Like he was their boogeyman from the beginning

Since Trump returned to office, the National Park Service has lost nearly a quarter of its full-time staff. That’s thousands of people who used to care for trails, run visitor centers, respond to emergencies, and protect the land, gone.
