This is bizarre. Noting demographic trends is not the same thing as saying there is a conspiracy by Democratic elites to bring in people from the third world to change the electorate of the country. The sun came up today.
The sun came up today because George Soros is secretly a giant who pushes it up into the sky and then takes it down.

I was thinking of the night Beans left us. It was so quiet and I could feel her spirit looking up at the cloudless sky. I still think of her every day even if it’s so painful. If you can find it in your heart to help us find childhood cancer research: TeamBeansMarathon.com I often think about Francesca and her little life. I reflect on everything she went through on how it changed me. It really brings things in perspective. She was the perfect little imperfect girl. Her smile would light up rooms at the hospital.

Walker’s Horatio Algar award page falsely repeats his claim that he was valedictorian of his high school despite his high school not having a valedictorian according to the press reports at the time. Not my fault your boss has misrepresented himself for nearly 40 years making claims central to his life story that aren’t true. But you should really try not to take things so personally. If you want to dispute our reporting dispute it but instead you just throw personal insults.
