Agree completely. Bush 41 doubled the cap on legal immigration. Tom Cotton’s RAISE Act would reduce legal immigration to 500,000 a year, still much too high. But the Dems, the unions, the Catholic Church and other religious sects, the Chamber of Commerce, and ethnic and racial interest groups benefit from mass immigration. It is a powerful coalition. And you couple that with an education establishment that touts meaningless bromides like we are a nation of immigrants. It is very difficult to discuss immigration as a matter of public policy free from emotion and misinformation. Immigration affects every major existential challenge that faces this country.

A poll just came out about the attitudes of millennials:

Half of those surveyed believe the United States is sexist (50 percent) and racist (49 percent).

American exceptionalism is on the decline — 46 percent of younger Americans do not agree that “America is the greatest country in the world.”

38 percent of younger Americans do not agree that “America has a history that we should be proud of.”

One in eight (14 percent) of millennials agree that “America was never a great country and it never will be.”

46 percent of younger Americans agree that “America is more racist than other countries.”

84 percent of Americans do not know the specific rights enumerated in the First Amendment.

19 percent of millennials believe that the American flag is “a sign of intolerance and hatred.”

44 percent of younger Americans believe Obama had a “bigger impact” on America than Washington, the nation’s first president.

In one sense, I regret that I won’t live long enough to see these self-loathing morons persecuted as a minority in the very country that they helped to “transform” into a tribal hellhole.

On the other hand, I’ll be happy to be dead before that comes to pass.

Would you believe no one ever asked me to prove I was a
citizen while I registered to vote in 3 different states where
I have lived?

Under federal law, any non-citizen that votes can be fined up to $100,000
and imprisoned for up to one year or three years if they intentionally
misrepresented their citizenship status.

Hyde-Smith won 54-46. A GOP candidate usually wins by double digits. A single digit win is exceptional in MS.

Reminds me of Cruz vs Beto. The days of easy GOP wins may be behind us.

In the Ted Cruz vs. Beto O’Rourke, race for Texas Senator, Ted Cruz was hammered from two sides, one of them being the Democrats, their big money, their media, their pollsters, their pundits and, the other one, Cruz self-inflicted wounds from the 2016 POTUS campaign, when Cruz upset millions of GOP, Trump voters who never forget how he acted at the GOP Convention. With all the hammering and his past misdeeds, Ted Cruz still wiped out Beto O’Rourke by a 225,000 vote victory margin. In contrast, Republican, Governor of Texas, Gregg Abbott beat his opponent by an over 800,000 vote victory margin. and...remember, Texas is still solid “Trump Red”!!!

In the case of Ms. Cindy Hyde-Smith....the “gutter, hateful, envious, Democrats and their Media including pundits, pollsters, the Drudge Report, Politico, Axios, Vox, Reuters, the Associated Press, CNN, MSNBC, FNC, FBN, ABC, CBS, NBC, NPR, etc., and only God knows who else, made the Cruz attack look like child’s play. Some of these verbal wounds were also self-inflicted by Hyde-Smith, herself. However, unlike Ted Cruz, she was a novice, this was her first major run.

Her 70,000 vote victory margin is most impressive, considering the verbal abuse and non-stop battering she went through. She worked hard....wiped out Democrat, Mike Espy easily for her being a novice, however she was certainly, a novice loaded with “True Grit”. And, the grand voters of Mississippi certainly gave her the turnout she needed to win. POTUS, Trump also saw the same “True grit in her....that is why He did his Two(2) rallies in the same day performance, which was stunning and awesome together.

The Democrats wanted this win, their media goons, and their lock-steppers the merchants of the “Race Card”, wanted it super badly, they wanted a massive victory, an African-American victory that would heal the loss wounds of African-American, Democrats, Andrew Gillum & Stacey Abrams who were beaten in major states, Florida & Georgia. They also wanted to seriously wound POTUS, Trump, politically, with a resounding defeat in the “Deep South”. However, all their low life political antics bright forth no victory whatsoever.

Yes, Virginia, Santa says Ms. Cindy Hyde-Smith won a great and deserved victory last night...but, the massive real winner is none other then the now “King of the Hill”, POTUS, Donald J. Trump!!! Game over for Democrats in 2020. Trump as of today holds all the cards that mean something. The Democrat Party control of the House means “ZILCH, ZERO, NOTHING!!! This Democrat ill ploy in the house should be futile and amusing at the same time!!! Virginia...read my lips, there never was a Democrat “Blue Wave”...never!!!

Congratulations, Cindy Hyde-Smith, POTUS, Trump and the citizen patriot, loyal GOP voters of the great state of Mississippi. Case Closed!!!

American exceptionalism is on the decline — 46 percent of younger Americans do not agree that “America is the greatest country in the world.”

I cannot shed a single tear for these Gen X ignoramuses for indeed they will not live in the greatest country in the world only because they do not believe nor support the ideals that made America the greatest power on earth.

They are the spoiled scions of an generation who have taken their freedom and their riches for granted nor were they taught by their elders that both wealth and liberty come at a heavy price.

They will learn by the hardest manner possible what it will be like to live in a second rate America. It is their destiny to be ruled by tyrants disguised as saviors promising "safe spaces" and dreams of "minimum wages" that would make Midas blush. And their "messiah" will treated them like the bawling cattle they imitate. Certainly not as brave men on a battlefield fighting for the cherished freedoms encoded by the "dead, white men" they so despise.

Liberty is not a birthright one generation can hand down to another like a crystal vase, it must be fought for... sometimes in blood but certainly in sweat and toil.

I will be long dead and would not be able to help them though I would through tear stained eyes that saw many glorious events no other country ever conceived achieved because they were Americans.

No tears for snowflakes who cannot stand to be "triggered" by the truth.

Woke up to the good news this morning - hope the idiots down here that were “McDaniel or the Dem” (even after McDaniel went by the wayside) are crapping in their Wheaties before eating them today....they sure did their best to crap on the rest of us....

Yes, this is a victory well worth celebrating 53 in the Senate, takes the Senate GOP treason caboose back from Mitt Romney, Collins and Murakowski.

I think 7, but given where I work I believe I voted after that in the 2016 election since I was in line.

“...two returned as moderates and one a flaming liberal...”

In our house we raised 4 conservative daughters - 1 remains conservative, 3 returned as moderates (after college and law school for one)

If the government school system is not examined and the anti-American curriculum is not addressed very soon, President Trump’s gains will be wiped out in a generation because the upcoming generations have been brainwashed from K-12 and then through college to be anti American and socialist.

This has to become a priority!

No, McDaniel endorsed Cindy right away; he did not try to topple her.

“Hyde-Smith won 54-46.”

For now. Democrats are desperate for wins so they’ll be looking for ballot boxes in car trunks.

There was hinky bullMitt going on last night.

The problem for the DemoKKKrat fraudsters was that the November 6th data point was too close to this election for them to really pull out the stops.

There were more than a couple of counties that need looking into.

Thank you for including FNC (Faux Snooze) in your comments.

I happened to catch Bill O'Reilly, yeah, THAT Bill O'Reilly (The Bloviator), on Newsmax TV and someone had asked him about FNC. He said, as we all know, with the new management at FNC, they have turned to looking like the rest of the alphabet channels! Yes, unfortunately, Faux Snooze has taken a decidedly left turn! To the point that I rarely watch any of it.
