To ban guns because criminals use them is to tell the law abiding that their rights and liberties depend not on their own conduct, but on the conduct of the guilty and the lawless.— Lysander Spooner

Be still my beating heart…..
BLUF:
We cease to be a republic if we permit perpetual foreign interference in our election system, dilute the political power of American citizens, and fuel the systematic evisceration of our sovereignty by granting political representation to those not entitled to it.
If SCOTUS Bans Illegals From The Census, Dems Could Lose Power For Years
Census figures used for congressional apportionment, redistricting, and redistributing federal funds have historically counted illegal aliens.
There are many drivers behind the new nullification crisis that the left is stoking over immigration, but perhaps the most significant political one is that the Trump administration’s mass deportation policy poses a greater threat to Democrat Party power than perhaps any other single initiative.
If federal authorities were to successfully remove millions of illegal aliens from the country, some estimates suggest it would result in the reallocation of nearly a dozen House seats and electoral college votes. Billions of dollars in taxpayer funding would be redirected out of blue states and into red ones.
That is because the census figures used for congressional apportionment, redistricting, and redistributing federal funds have historically counted all residents including illegal aliens. On balance, this has benefited Democrat-led states — where such populations are largely though not exclusively concentrated — over Republican-led ones.
The projected outmigration of citizens from blue to red states would compound the negative effect of the deportations for Democrats as we head towards the 2030 census, potentially swinging control of the House and the presidency in Republicans’ favor going forward.

The NFL played a separate national anthem for black people. And a halftime show in Spanish.
But White people are still the racists and the cause of division?

“The Bill of Rights is largely a prescription for preventing government from restricting the flow of information and ideas. But the Founding Fathers did not foresee that tyranny by government might be superseded by another sort of problem altogether, namely, the corporate state, which through television now controls the flow of public discourse in America.”

Star Fleet Academy saved my father’s life. I was visiting him the hospital. He’s been unresponsive for days. I turned on the TV in his room & watched this new show.
Within minutes, my father woke up.
Then he got up and changed the channel.
