Pew Research: Foreign-born population in U.S. declines for first time since the '60s * WorldNetDaily * by Bob Unruh

Pew Research: Foreign-born population in U.S. declines for first time since the '60s * WorldNetDaily * by Bob Unruh

The foreign-born population in the United States exploded by millions under Joe Biden. After all, he imposed essentially open borders practices that allow just about anyone who could walk across the border a place at the public benefits table, and even encouraged foreigners who lived thousands of miles from America's borders to come. But under President Donald Trump's secure border agenda, that population already is down by 1.5 million, the first time that has happened in more than half a century, the 1960s, according to Pew Research.

The CBO Just Dropped a $4 Trillion Truth Bomb on the Dems’ Anti-Trump Tariffs Rhetoric Matt Margolis

Let’s put that in perspective. Back in June, the CBO had already stunned critics by predicting Trump’s tariffs would shrink the deficit by $3 trillion

As of August 19, we estimate that the effective tariff rate for goods imported into the United States has increased by about 18 percentage points when measured against 2024 trade flows. We project that increases in tariffs implemented during the period from January 6, 2025, to August 19 will decrease primary deficits (which exclude net outlays for interest) by $3.3 trillion if the higher tariffs persist for the 2025‒2035 period. By reducing the need for federal borrowing, those tariff collections will also reduce federal outlays for interest by an additional $0.7 trillion. As a result, the changes in tariffs will reduce total deficits by $4.0 trillion altogether.

That’s no rounding error. 

The numbers are simply eye-popping, and they tell the story that the media doesn’t want you to know...

'Jig is up': Crackdown coming on system rigged to give foreigners Americans' jobs * WorldNetDaily * by Bob Unruh

A new report in Revolver.News warns that now the "jig is up," and there's coming a crackdown on a system rigged to give foreigners Americans' jobs. The system is the H-1B visa system that purportedly is to allow foreigners with technical expertise to come to America for jobs when there aren't enough qualified Americans for the work.

Climate Narrative Ch-Ch-Ch-Ch-Changes Duane Patterson

By the mid-teens of the new century, due to the fact that the Earth wasn't boiling over fast or severe enough to keep up with the prophets of doom predicting global apocalypse, the narrative had to shift again.
  • It wasn't cooling, and it wasn't really warming up all that much, so the term 'climate change' evolved as the preferred term of art...
Yesterday, The Guardian came out with this news - the climate isn't really changing much at all.
The melting of sea ice in the Arctic has slowed dramatically in the past 20 years, scientists have reported, with no statistically significant decline in its extent since 2005. 

The finding is surprising, the researchers say, given that carbon emissions from fossil fuel burning have continued to rise and trap ever more heat over that time. 

They said natural variations in ocean currents that limit ice melting had probably balanced out the continuing rise in global temperatures. However, they said this was only a temporary reprieve and melting was highly likely to start again at about double the long-term rate at some point in the next five to 10 years...

The House That Love Built: Caitlin Clark’s Parents Sold Their Home in Secret, and What They Never Told Her Will Change How You See Success

...Brent and Anne Clark held each other’s hands. Between them lay a piece of paper—a final mortgage receipt for a house they no longer owned.
For six months, they had lived with a secret so profound, a sacrifice so total, that it was both their greatest gift and their heaviest burden. 
  • They had sold their family home, the sanctuary where their daughter Caitlin had grown from a little girl with a basketball to a national phenom, and they had never told her the real reason.
How far can love push a parent?...

Things Democrats say:

The Democratic Party loves to cloak itself in noble rhetoric, claiming to champion the working man, free speech, traditions, democracy, diversity, and rule-following. - Michael Smith
  • - We are the party of the working man.
  • - We support free speech.
  • - We respect traditions and norms.
  • - We want to save democracy.
  • - We are for diversity.
  • - We follow the rules.
Well, no, no, no, nope, hell no, and you must be f*cking kidding me.
  • Let me tell you why Democrats are none of these.
The Democratic Party loves to cloak itself in noble rhetoric, claiming to champion the working man, free speech, traditions, democracy, diversity, and rule-following. 
  • But scratch the surface, and their actions tell a different story - one of hypocrisy, power grabs, and betrayal of the principles they profess. 
Let’s unpack why their self-proclaimed virtues are little more than a mirage...
