Forget about immigration fraud potentially marrying her brother, which @StarTribune deserves credit for touching.

@IlhanMN is in the chamber where all new tax policy originates. She didn't know it's illegal to file married-jointly w/ the wrong person?

🙄

Also, @IlhanMN blames everyone around her for wrongdoings. which Carla Kjellberg said is BS.

“I did nothing, I want to make that clear, without Representative Omar’s authority. And she was in these meetings where those things were decided upon and I was directed to do that."
So, either she's an incompetent, handled politician who is in way over her head, which is her own claim according to her testimony...

or...

She's a liar and a deceiver who blames everyone around her for carrying out illegal orders on her authority.

Neither is very flattering.

They cry when Trump calls them the "Enemy of the American People" and "Very Fake News"?

Acosta lies about his comments re: Charlottesville & CNN runs a puff piece covering for Antifa violence. Now a physical attack on a journalist, Stelter calls a "messenger."

Who could argue?
Would a "Friend of the American People" lie to them like that?

If they seriously can't see that point, then I feel badly for their "friends". Good people don't treat their friends like a means to an end, insult their intelligence or think they're too stupid to see it.
This is why we call them the #BigMediaHateMachine.

That lie CNN pushed re: Charlottesville is dangerous. You'll hear it in standup comedy routines on Netflix and while covering Antifa.

Remember that the next time Stelter & Acosta cry about feeling threatened by Donald Trump.

1. Save for Joe Biden, Kamala Harris is without a doubt the most handled candidate in the field. She had been practicing those canned debate lines for weeks and weeks.

Let's not fool ourselves into thinking that's indicative, because it hasn't been.
2. Out of the gate, Kamala Harris was the pick of the "new establishment" Democratic Party. They want to run against Donald Trump as a full blown racist, B/C economic campaign is out of the question for now, and she's the best to do it.

But... she stumbled badly, wasn't ready.
3. Those stumbles scared a lot of Democrats and they begun to wonder/fear that Kamala Harris was not ready for primetime. Geriatric Joe Biden comes along and for a while Obama Nostalgia put Harris in the corner. She had weeks to practice this comeback, and was ready.

But...

Where to start, right?

How about Geriatric Joe Biden? Does anyone seriously think that's still too harsh?

Moving on...

Big takeaway, this is why we say early polls mean nothing. Because they do mean nothing.

D-Nom will move, and they've all hurt themselves w/ a GE electorate.
Why is taxpayer-funded healthcare for illegal immigrants such a bad political position for Dems in a GE?

Not only is it a deeply unpopular proposal, it hurts Dems among persuadable voters who cite healthcare as a top concern.

"Illegals? What about my healthcare?!?! 😡"

Get it?
In a truly competitive election, those healthcare voters are prime targets for Democratic candidates.

But again, they'll be asking...

"Illegals? What about my healthcare?!?! 😡"

These are truly swing voters, and they won't be shamed w/ accusations of racism, other social bias.

Unfortunately, for many there aren't viable pathways to citizenship. My family included.

See this video by @MatthewSoerens vimeo.com/293240885

2/ Some of you have asked, “How could they have lived here for 19 years and still have been considered legal?” They were covered under various visas while petitions were filed over the years. A couple of those petitions (one filed in 2012) are STILL being processed.
3/ Yes, this happens. Don’t believe the false narrative that all immigrants can just fill out a few papers, pay a couple of fees, and suddenly they’re citizens. Again, see this video: vimeo.com/293240885

#immigration twitter: I know it’s a holiday weekend but on my mind: anyone interested in a private group discussion about how to identify / photograph potential asylum seekers/ migrants possibly in danger? I’m thinking this is ongoing journalism ethics discussion that is evolving
I’m just gauging initial interest (I don’t want to lead this) but thinking it could be a worthy off the record discussion to have with perhaps some outside experts weighing in and real life journos giving the reality.
It just seems like a lot has changed under Trump/ realities external pressures in CentAm et al and it could be a worthy (though difficult) discussion and it would of course have to be off record to be helpful. Anyway just thinking out loud.

Nigeria has launched a new national youth policy, ten years after its last national youth policy was launched office.youthhubafrica.org/nigerian-natio…
There are quite a lot of interesting things we have seen in the new national youth policy, the most interesting will be the youth age definition from 18 - 35 years in the previous policy to 15 - 29 years in the new policy #youth #Policy #YouthPolicyNaija
However, there are lots of other interesting things. The policy in itself is very ambitious for the next five years in terms of why it hopes to achieve, one of such is bursaries to 100k eligible STEM undergrads in 5 years #YouthPolicyNaija

Does anyone else think maybe the NXIVM members have very damaging information on all of those opposed to the wall? We already know how far the tentacles of #NXIVM extend, especially among the elite...

1) 💥BOMBSHELL: What was Barack Obama’s "The American Recovery and Reinvestment Act of 2009”, which established the Electronic Health Records (EHR) Incentive Program, all about? $$$ & Immigration. Pay attention...
#ChildTrafficking #Immigration

hhs.gov/sites/default/…
2) So Obama created this stimulus package for physicians to buy this technology and make all health records electronic. But why? There was a big push for this. In fact, prominent venture capitalists jumped at this opportunity. #Immigration #SaveTheChildren #ChildTrafficking
3) In its economic recovery package, the Obama administration plans to spend $19 billion to accelerate the use of computerized medical records in doctors’ offices. #Immigration #ChildTrafficking #LockThemUp

I'm going to rant for a minute.
There's a sort of populist conservative that likes to talk a lot about civilizational struggles, demographic suicide, the idea that Islam owns the future because Western nations don't have any babies, etc. etc.
I'm thinking of all sorts of people here, everyone from @MarkSteynOnline to the Breitbart crowd to Pat Buchanan to @SteveKingIA and many more.
