President's Biden's bipartisan border bill was to hire 1000 more border guards and add about 500 immigration judges.
That is, double down on a dysfunctional system. Trump shut the border down in two weeks. How un-American.

I use Grok3 a lot on X. Very useful in searching for data. However, there are some words you cannot use. Note the interaction in the attached graphic. It under scores the fact that these AI's are not self-aware or intelligent. They are just dumb algorithms, no matter what their designers say.

The UK is committed to net-zero by 2050. Here is the UK grid for this year.
They have worked for years to get wind and solar on their grid.
They emit 1% of the world's CO2.
The grid is 1/3rd of the UK's power consumption.
The UK has the world's most expensive electricity.
Reflect.
