I’m so glad I escaped the land of high taxes, corruption and ridiculous mandates (IL) last year.

The ILGOPe won’t lift a finger to help any candidate who is actually conservative. They’d rather lose and they’re getting pretty good at it.

NP. You guys actually flipped quite a few seats to the gop didn’t you? The governor’s race though...extremely disheartening.

I’m in Illinois.
I’m a MAGA Republican.
I voted on Election Day.
Straight Republican.
I’m ready to move to Wisconsin. They have their liberal stronghold in Madison, but I feel that at least we’ll have a voice there.
I’m tired of the GOP, the Gang Of P*SSIES Party who get in front of a camera and complain about the democrats, but get face time on tv and collect a paycheck from the state, and DON’T SEEM TO CARE.
I have my CCL, and won’t leave home without it.
The only thing keeping me here is family.

I’ll take what I can get.
The house seats are huge. More so because,
we know they cheat.

:) All the best!

Good heavens. You are absolutely right. The clause was meant to refer to “legal immigrants (green card holders) or illegal aliens”.

I was using voice to text to dictate it, and then I corrected the typos. I didn’t see that one. I can get it corrected in the original… I don’t know how to fix it in free republic. Darn it.

Thanks very much for catching it! I’m so embarrassed.

No worries. Way too many on our side act as if these distinctions don”t matter.
It doesn’t matter as they are not any different, and the goal of population replacement proceeds apace regardless.

You could always just repost the entire text in a comment as a clarification / correction...

In my experience most legal immigrants who go through the proper processes including showing they will not be dependent on the state (old style where you had to have money, a profession, or a sponsor to back you / provide for you) become contributing, working citizens who pay taxes. As a group, politically they seem no worse than the group of women of childbearing age in the USA.

Now, of CURRENT legal immigrants who receive much less scrutiny, that may be different. Those I interact with seem pretty decent to me, but that is a much more limited sampling, these days...

I agree with almost all your points, but, I’ll add another observation: I was watching an IL TV station’s “Local News” in a rather red region of downstate IL the night B4 the election. They aired as part of the “news” just under 5 minutes total of Democrat candidates making their pitches. This included Biden at a rally (not in IL but I don’t recall where, PA maybe?) Add in a couple minutes of “reports” on the legal attacks on DJT.

By contrast, the Republican side got maybe 15 seconds of President Trump at a rally. That was it.

This does not even include the constant reports of all the great things the Dems are doing for us (/s) as they (not reported) suck the sustenance out of us, ruin the society, and drive out most of the people with $$.*

Pardon my French, but, how the “H” do Republicans / conservatives compete with this? And how do we make a run at getting it corrected?

*Several of my successful friends from the Chicago suburban area are leaving for states like TN and AR as soon as they can conclude family matters (usually care of a parent) and / or sell their businesses. (These friends are all moderately to very conservative.)

BTW, if you have a ping list, please add me to it.

Thanks.

In Southern IL, the property owners may resort to removing trespassers themselves. Without a trace, as they say...

"I’m ready to move to Wisconsin."

We could sure use more patriots up here. Help to gird our legislators loins. Wisconsin state legislature is all red, and we even managed to increase majorities in both chambers and flipped a congressional seat this year. Ron Johnson re-elected too so we're holding our own. We don't have veto-proof majorities in the legislature but hopefully they can thwart Tony Evers and his communist plans.

I relocated up here from the Chicago area in 2003. Even back then it felt like I had escaped a lunatic asylum.

Probably will be their only option.
