The US immigrant population generated more in taxes than they received in benefits from all levels of government every year from 1994 to 2023.
The Cato study provides the first-ever 30-year analysis of the fiscal effects of immigration on government budgets.

Of course the Trumps’ massive payday from the UAE — prior to the White House easing chip restrictions on the UAE — is a huge national security risk and financial conflict of interest. And a GOP-led Congress won’t do anything about it:

It’s hard to put into perspective how truly massive the warehouse is that was recently sold by the Rockefeller Group to the Department of Homeland Security for $70 million to build a concentration camp in Surprise, AZ. Across the street is a huge neighborhood and a school. It’s 400,000-square-feet.

There are hundreds of people trickling into the Surprise City Council meeting. The main room has filled up, and the overflow room is filling up atm. A crowd of protesters is also outside the building. 130 people have signed up to speak (and that’s just folks who live in Surprise).

Intimidation is an age old tactic to qualm public dissent and outrage.
This Administration is going after public figures to encourage the American people to self-censor.
But we will not be silenced, and we will not accept this violation of our First Amendment Rights.

When Jeff Bezos bought WaPo, he immediately took control of the opinions section. Now, he's laying off hundreds of journalists, including those covering Amazon.
This isn’t a coincidence. It’s the result of billionaires with vested political agendas taking over our media.

Remember the incident where DHS claimed officers shot a guy because he attacked them with a snow shovel?
Yeah. It didn't happen. They shot him through the door of his own home. And then arrested him. And then lied about it. Again.
And they almost shot some kids in the process.

They just blindly shot through the fucking door.
