Politics in 2019 Explained With These Four Words

January 1, 2020 by Bob Prokop Leave a Comment

Four words from Minnesota Rep. Ilhan Omar explain our politics in 2019. It was a tumultuous year for sure, but worse than the unprecedented anger between left and right were the limits the left explored to test the boundaries of our values. It was far too easy to excuse affronts that would have been intolerable before hating President Trump became not only fashionable, but … [Read more...] about Politics in 2019 Explained With These Four Words

Illegal Workers Contribute to Democrats More Than Economy

ICE worksite enforcement in Texas seeks illegal workers

As taxpayers do we pay to crack down on illegal workers or do we pay to protect America’s immigrant workforce? The answer is both. We fund enforcement to control illegal labor. Then we pay again because Congressional Democrats obstruct our efforts. That’s only part of the cost illegal workers dump on the U.S. economy, but don’t expect to hear that from liberal House and Senate … [Read more...] about Illegal Workers Contribute to Democrats More Than Economy
