#SpreadTheWord Research has shown that on average immigrants commit fewer crimes than native-born Americans. Further, immigration violations, such as living in the country without proper documentation, are civil, not criminal under U.S. law.

Due to demand, Democracy Docket has dropped the paywall on my latest.
To say that the media is bending a knee, falsely assumes there are still hardened bones and a joint in place in their operations. Their mission now is to report the news fearfully and to seek Trump’s favor.

It's not the wokeness, it's the way we talk about it. Dems/liberals have THE WORST messaging and marketing instincts and skills possible. Self-inflicted wounds abound, and little to no learning and evolution in strategies and tactics.
As this article spells out, one tiny problem with "it's the wokeness!" is how Democrats crushed it when they were at their most woke. This was all in 2020 before the election.
Then in 2024 they backed away from it and lost to a bunch of the same people they beat in 2020.
