What's the fastest way to reverse this type of behavior from an official account? I will fess up - I did curse at one point and called the Congressman a "puta." But in my defense, it was to complain about his constant cursing and his overly thirsty activities on X.

If you're wondering how Big Pharma gets it's claws into politicians and you're looking just at political donations - you are not looking in the right place. That's not to say they don't spend a good deal of money there...but it's a drop in the bucket.

Pharma Corp GSK wants you to understand that your teenager is out there being a promiscuous skank and needs protection against meningitis. They propose a $150 vaccine. But if you look, the CDC data for 2023 suggest zero fatalities among teens. Would they lie to us for money?

Gavin Newsom keeps touting his state's criminal record. What he really means to congratulate himself on is having fewer black people than other states. @GavinNewsom is a White Supremacist, apparently.

Washington DC is the safest it's ever been. If you compare yourself to just yourself, you might be fooled into thinking things are indeed better. Dem controlled cities are NOT ok.

Anyone up for an immigration and asylum pause?

Immigration enforcement is the next Dem target, they are complaining at all levels. This wasn't always the case. Through 2012, Dems made appeals to normies and Obama deported more people (formal removals) than any other President in history.

CLAIM - Red States are Leeches! A common observation by Democrats is that red states take in more in federal spending than they pay. This is partly explained by the fact that blue states are more urban, wealthier and have higher salaries on average - so they pay more in taxes. But the surface observation conceals the fact that a lot of this federal spending that makes it appear as if red states are "takers," is Social Security and Medicare. Given the high cost and climate of a lot of blue states, it's not a surprise that people might retire to warmer, less expensive states. Pulling data from USAFacts, the first graph shows net receiving minus spending, per state. The second shows the same data, excluding Social Security and Medicare Spending. Note that excluding these two large programs, most states end up net contributors. The final graph shows federal per capita spending on SNAP food assistance, based on March 2025 USDA and Census population data.

There were 2.4M border encounters in 2023. Most of those people were allowed in as they had been trained by USG funded NGOs like Catholic Charities, to claim asylum. So what do we know about them or the other 7.5M Biden allowed into the US? Nothing. Literally nothing. People arrived and provided a name and might have had a travel or ID document from their country, but it didn't matter. Why not? - None of the major sources of illegal immigrants are countries with reliable criminal databases - These countries don't track criminal clearance rates, in most cases. In some, like Mexico, with a homicide clearance rate of 17%, the rate is abysmally low. This means lots of murderers are out there walking around. So are violent r@pists and worse. - None of these countries have reliable identification databases that can't be easily gamed or where a new identity isn't easily purchased. ICE estimates up to a third of the documents they see are fakes. - Even if countries had criminal databases, we don't have access to almost any of them. This means we are vetting illegal aliens using only US criminal databases. For people arriving here for the first time, that's less than useless. It is probably true that most people are coming to work and not to commit crimes. But what is the acceptable risk level we are willing to assume given that we cannot know anything about these people's prior records? And by the way, this is true about immigrant and visitor visas as well.

Has anyone else noticed that all these long-term TPS designations are happening mostly under Democrat administrations? And they become de facto Amnesty as they are either extended by Democrat Presidents or the courts.

Some people incorrectly believe Florida was ceded to the US during the Spanish American War. Not so. Florida joined the Union through the Adams-Onís Treaty of 1819. Spain received $5 million for the territory which became the 27th state in 1845.

With the flood of immigrants coming across the border the past four years, we've also seen the highest level of support for mass deportations in several generations. So what are the numbers today and relevant trends?

Recently, a friend of mine revealed - with some embarrassment - that his daughter was receiving SNAP. She's a college student. When a niece told me the same thing, I thought it very odd. As it turns out, according to a 2018 GAO report, 2.6M college students received food assistance. This is odd, given that most student aid packages include room and board in their calculations and I know both my niece and my friend's daughter were receiving enough aid to cover all estimated expenses. Both of them work part-time as well. A later GAO report, published in 2024, revealed that a majority of SNAP assistance to college students went to people who were not considered food insecure (final graphic). How can this be? Well, to start, college students don't earn a lot of income and most qualify under the poverty guidelines. They must also meet additional guidelines (called exemptions), but these are either applied so broadly or ignored, that GSO considered up to 4.7M students eligible for SNAP. In practical terms, this means millions of students are double or triple dipping - receiving student aid, their parent's support, and SNAP. This is how SNAP ballooned to include nearly 48M people at one point (down to 35.7 in 2019). The program currently covers approximately 41M people, of which 59% are the widows and orphans we were told we'd be helping. My immediate question, in learning all this is - why college students? Why accustom young people in the prime of their life to receiving government assistance with no shame or embarrassment attached to it, as was the case when my generation was coming up? Get 'em young, right?

New Mexico has the 2nd least representative Delegation in the 119th Congress. The state sent all Dems, in spite of a margin of victory for Harris in 2024 of just 6%. New Hampshire is worse, with 100% Dems, and a 2.8% margin. In all, 19 states sent one-party delegations.

Something is wrong with @grok -- @elonmusk @lindayaX I gave it a simple task: A list of states with Trump's margin of victory/loss. Nearly every state I looked at was wrong: CO, NY, CA, HI, GA...interestingly it was closer and or correct, on red states like TX and FL.

Brazil glam rocks the US National Anthem! I can't complain.

Does anyone know how many members of Congress were in the US illegally at one time or another? Garcia has said as much, Torres has no explanation for her citizenship other than "she came here as a child and had no choice in the matter."
