It's a catch 22. Do I want to see a pregnant women denied her Ultrasound due to immigration status - not really. OTOH, we're encouraging women to come here and get pre/post natal care and birth right citizenship. Then that child gets access to Healthcare, education, WIC, etc. If we had a balanced budget, minimal debt, minimal homelessness, etc, then I would say we can take on this burden. Knowing that this is additional deficit spending that my children will spend a lifetime repaying, I'm not a fan of policies that result in undocumented aliens receiving benefits.
I feel the same. If we weren't so deep in debt it would be a less important issue (illegally "immigration" would still need to be addressed). Past the money problems with illegals...if the push to include them in the census actually happens, then we get more "representatives" in government...and the absolute last thing we need as a country is an even bigger government "wisely" bending us over on taxes to spend on bs they can later campaign on...

My understanding of including them in the census isn't to increase representation. It's to alter how many reps each state gets but the total # of reps (nationally) remains the same. It's basically a way to take congressional representation from red states and move it Blue States.
 
Peaceful protests. No attacks on law enforcement.

They should be tried, convicted if guilty, and punished to the full extent of the law.
But that phrase has taken on a whole new meaning, hasn't it...

Yet today, Trump feigns shock and disgust that reporters are asking questions, after the Epstein evidence has suddenly and inexplicably vanished.
Guilty.

He says they should be asking about Texas.

But when he is asked about Texas:

Agreed. When it comes to these violent protesters the Fed dropped the hammer on them, only to be reversed and the states generally went easy on BLM rioters. Although, in this case, it looks like more than a protest that got out of hand.
 
"Dear Mr. Prime Minister. I don't understand how tariffs work, and I'm hoping you don't either. If you do, then this letter will read like it was written by a moron, which it was. But I hope no one figures it out. Sincerely, DJT."

IMHO, Trump/GOP needs to migrate away from tariffs. We need to protect US technology, protect our supply chain and bring jobs back to the US. We can simply restrict the outflow of technology, which will also bring jobs back to the US. Then "they" simply need to require companies doing $x of sales in the US to produce $× of the product/products in the US. Tariffs are too messy & indiscriminate to accomplish what we really need to accomplish.
 
I see CNN released tapes of Trump (allegedly) talking about bombing Russia. I get it CNN, Orange Man bad, but do you really need to undermine him at every turn? Doesn't national and global interests enter into the equation. The lefties really need to let go of their TDS. Did the right blast Biden, Obama, etc - absolutely, but didn't undermine everything they did at every turn.
