Democrats favor illegal aliens over Americans, and the more violent they are, the better. There is no illegal Democrats will not defend or donate to. How much money do you think racist groups like La Raza spend on lawyers for violent illegals versus how much do you think they’ve donated to victims of illegal alien crime? I bet they’ve given nothing to help victims; their focus is on creating more of them. As the deportation of people who have no legal right to be here and have not only not contributed anywhere near what they cost our economy – in...

The left threw violent anti-immigration protests in seven different areas of Los Angeles beginning on Friday, and you’ll never guess who paid for it. If you guessed "you," you are right. Not only are taxpayers paying for the initial ICE raids, which netted 44 illegal aliens, but we’re paying for the police, sheriff's deputies, enhanced California Highway Patrol, and the federal response to the violent protests against the ICE raids, too. But that's only the half of it. Most Americans are only too willing to pay for law enforcement, but it turns out that you’re also paying for the L.A....

“Under federal law, schools cannot provide benefits to illegal aliens that they do not provide to U.S. citizens.” ... Texas has finally ended what amounts to a decades-long incentive for illegal immigration: taxpayer-funded in-state tuition. For over twenty years, Texas laws required state colleges and universities to offer reduced tuition to aliens, whether they were here legally or not. Late yesterday, those laws abruptly came to an end, only hours after the U.S. Department of Justice sued to block the state from enforcing them. Texas Governor Gregg Abbott announced the parties’ joint consent ... Enacted in 2001, the Texas Dream...

As President Donald Trump’s administration ramps up immigration enforcement in his second term, California Democrats are doubling down on their efforts to shield illegal aliens from federal authorities, even in places where public safety is at stake. This week, the California State Senate passed a series of bills that critics argue would all but handcuff federal immigration agents operating in the state. Democrats are moving to place fresh restrictions on Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE). The legislation would ban ICE from making arrests at schools, hospitals, homeless shelters, and domestic violence shelters unless they obtain a judicial warrant — a...

The U.S. House has passed legislation barring all noncitizens, except permanent residents from acquiring Small Business Administration loans. The American Entrepreneurs First Act of 2025, which passed in a 217-190 vote Friday, would require the SBA to verify the citizenship status and age of every applicant, codifying reforms recently implemented by the agency. If the bill passes the Senate and becomes law, the SBA will permanently exclude illegal immigrants, refugees and asylees, visa holders, DACA recipients or nonimmigrants from obtaining taxpayer-funded SBA loans. It would also disqualify companies partially or completely owned by such individuals. Co-sponsor of the bill, Rep....

An Illegal immigrant has been found guilty of a DUI crash that resulted in the death of a state trooper. On Tuesday, a Snohomish County jury found Raul Benitez-Santana, 33, guilty of vehicular assault and vehicular homicide — in connection with the death of Washington State Patrol Trooper Christopher Gadd. In March 2024, Gadd, 27, was driving in his cruiser when he was hit by a speeding car going over 100 mph ... Benitez-Santana was under the influence at the time of the crash. He admitted to drinking alcohol and smoking marijuana before jumping in his vehicle. Benitez-Santana had reportedly...

The unidentified 18-year-old, described by his coach as an 'exceptional citizen,' was detained by officers Saturday morning after being pulled over in a car with his teammates. The teen's friend, who wished to remain anonymous, described the moment he watched him get arrested when three undercover vehicles stopped them that morning. 'An ICE officer had stepped out of his vehicle, walked over to us, and knocked on the window,' he told WRPI. 'And they asked him what his documentation was. I didn't see him run a red light or do anything illegal, we were just on our way.' A peaceful...

Illinois’s Democrat governor, J.B. Pritzker, is about to sign a new bill into law that will allow illegal immigrants to become driving instructors. .. A proposal that’s passed both chambers would allow some immigrants to become driving instructors in Illinois. In the state, non U.S. citizens can apply for a special drivers license called a Temporary Visitor Drivers License or TVDL. You might ask, “Where did that TVDL come from?” We’ve had a Democrat-controlled state legislature since 2003, and they currently have supermajorities in both chambers. Except for a single-term RINO governor in 2015–18, we’ve also had 100% Democrat governors...

A 62-year-old Mexican national, deported from the United States in 2017 but allegedly gained illegal re-entry, was taken into custody this week after being suspected of embezzling $7 million from his employer, authorities said. Alexander G. Ramos of Newport Beach was charged on Thursday, May 22, with fraud, a felony that carries a sentence of up to 20 years in federal prison if convicted, according to the U.S. Attorney’s Office. Ramos was being held without bail. According to an affidavit filed by the U.S. Attorney’s Office, Ramos was employed in the victim company’s risk-management department from 2017 until his termination...

Even a majority of far-left voters want troops on the streets of dangerous neighborhoods in French cities.. Due to France’s drug trafficking crisis, a large majority of French are in favor of the army being deployed into disadvantaged neighborhoods in problematic neighborhoods in France, including 80 percent of women. According to a CSA poll conducted for CNews, Europe 1 and JDD, 76 percent of French people overall want the army called in to battle drug trafficking in “disadvantaged neighborhoods.” In fact, women are more supportive of troops being deployed than men, with 80 percent of women saying yes to the...

This week, Department of Homeland Security Secretary Kristi Noem got in a heated argument with Democrat Rep. Dan Goldman (NY). The hearing was meant to focus on the budget. Of course, the hearing got sidetracked when Democrats began to press Noem about Kilmar Abrego Garcia, the so-called “Maryland Man” who was living in the United States illegally and got deported to El Salvador. Democrats have flown to El Salvador to advocate for his release, despite the fact that judges determined that he is a member of MS-13. "It's gotta be extremely discouraging to be one of your constituents," Noem told...

NEW: A teenage illegal alien who was driving without a license at over 90 mph when he crashed into a woman & killed her in Aurora, CO last year has been given only community service & probation by the Arapahoe District Attorney’s Office. Zero prison time.

A 64-year-old grandmother in the U.S. without documentation is facing deportation after she mistakenly took the wrong exit on her way home from work. Ana Camero’s family says she’s currently being held at Otay Mesa Detention Center more than a month after she made the unexpected detour and ended up at the entrance to a U.S. Marines facility in San Diego. Camero was driving home from her job as a dishwasher at a La Jolla restaurant on April 7 when she stopped to get gas. She then drove into the Marine Corps Recruit Depot in San Diego by mistake. There,...

During his first term, President Donald Trump issued an executive order directing the Census Bureau to add a question about citizenship status to the 2020 national survey. There was good reason for this. The Census is used to count the population. Population numbers are then used to determine how many congressional seats are allocated to each state. Given illegal aliens aren’t citizens and ineligible to vote, they should not have representation in Congress and Democrats shouldn’t benefit from additional congressional seats based on an illegal population. “If unauthorized immigrants were excluded from the apportionment count, California, Florida and Texas would...

The ENLIST ACT Supports Military Readiness Our nation has allowed non-citizens to serve in our Armed Forces since the Revolutionary War. The Encourage New Legalized Immigrants to Start Training (ENLIST) Act, H.R. 60, is a widely supported bipartisan bill that would grant lawful permanent resident status to undocumented immigrants who were brought to America as children and enlist in the U.S. Armed Forces.

Latest statistics reveal alarming increase in rapes, reaching 5,206 incidents in 2024, nearly triple the figure reported six years ago ... Spain has seen an alarming rise in sexual violence over recent years, culminating in a record-high number of rapes, which reached 5,206 incidents in 2024, ... With an average of 14 rapes per day across the country, the figure nearly triples the 1,878 cases reported in 2019 when five daily incidents were reported. The upward trend has remained consistent year-over-year since 2018 ... Regional breakdowns show that communities like Catalonia, Madrid, and Andalusia report the highest numbers, although increases...

In yet another glaring example of failed immigration enforcement and soft-on-crime policies, the illegal immigrant accused of stealing Department of Homeland Security Secretary (DHS) Kristi Noem’s purse was reportedly released after committing a similar theft in New York City just weeks earlier. Instead of facing swift deportation or serious consequences, the suspect was reportedly freed, highlighting the disastrous impact of sanctuary city policies. According to a newly released report, the suspect and illegal alien from Chile, Mario Bustamante-Leiva, was previously arrested in New York City. As he stole Noem’s purse from a restaurant in Washington, D.C., the New York Police...

If we don’t insist on the total assimilation and Americanization of our immigrants, we’ll cease to be America and become something else.. If you want to know what mass immigration without assimilation produces in a country, look no further than Scotland. Immigrants from Pakistan now constitute an ethno-religious voting bloc in that country with their very own politicians advocating for nakedly sectarian interests. Recently, a video clip from 2022 resurfaced on social media of Scottish Labour leader Anas Sarwar standing in front of the flag of the Islamic Republic of Pakistan claiming that “change is coming” and forthrightly calling for...

To begin to fix immigration, we must agree the American identity is worth preserving and then work to build an immigration system that nourishes it.Can Washington discuss immigration without devolving into a debate about racism? If we lay down our Twitter weapons, perhaps we could discuss what kind of immigration we need. Should we allow anyone, from anywhere, to come here at any time? Amid the political establishment’s promotion of all immigration as virtuous and their relentless attacks on all things traditional or patriotic, we can demand something better: An immigration system that is good for America and requires that...
