FULL TITLE: Todd Starnes: I had a front-row seat at Trump's State of the Union -- You won't believe what I saw

It was one of those uniquely American moments – where strangers sat together – many of opposing political views – united under the belief that we are a free people, one nation – under God.

Also in my section was an investment guy from the Silicon Valley and a Packers fan from Wisconsin – and a decorated Army Ranger from Texas. He was gracious as all of us shook his hand and thanked him for his service.

In advance of the big night I had to provide the congressman’s staff with my name and birthdate and Social Security number. It all made perfect sense what with the president and the vice president and all the other important people in the House chamber.

So you can imagine my surprise when I learned there were several DACA recipients in the audience and one was seated in our midst. How she gained entry into the building without a Social Security card is beyond me.

Rep. Mike Levin, D-Calif., acknowledged that he had invited an illegal immigrant to attend the SOTU. She had been an intern on his campaign in 2018. The congressman could have selected a law-abiding, American taxpayer to watch the SOTU but instead, he chose...

MY translation:

Too bad their mothers ever had them.

That is a “flag” representing Democrats destroying the United States of America.

A major talking point / destruction legislation work of antichrist spirit Manchurian Candidate Barack Hussein Obama.

Ex President Fox campaigned against Trump on his own dime. Nobody paid him. That is legal. I have had yard signs in the yards of illegals who were supporting my candidates.
They did not get paid. That is legal.

Non-citizens on the paid staff, or paid as consultants or contractors is illegal. (There may be a difference between local and Federal races.)

"I studiously copy the < ahref...etc."

Spaces are important. There should be a space after the "a" and before the "href".

You should see my about page. I have more links than you can shake a female lynx at.

Worth repepeating…

When you reward someone, for doing something dumb,
You just create a person who’ll be nothing but a bum.

Is that not an illegal act? These “false” cards get them jobs, tax refunds for more than what they paid, and drivers licenses that enable them to vote in many states. The “false” cards often contain actual social security numbers stolen from American citizens .
