Democrat and RINO leaders ever-increasingly flood America with illegals; Democrats because illegals vote for Democrats and RINOs because RINOs want cheap labor.

— To trace the origins of busing migrants to Chicago, start with Donald Trump, Tucker Carlson and Ted Cruz. The Chicago Sun-Times spoke with some of the key decision-makers in Illinois and Texas about the early months of Texas’ continuing program to export migrants to Democratic cities like Chicago. Officials here were caught off guard when Texas Gov. Greg Abbott began shipping busloads of new arrivals in 2022 and were furious when Colorado’s governor and the El Paso, Texas, mayor — Democrats — got in on the act. – Frank Main and Tina Sfondeles

BLOOMINGTON PANTAGRAPH & HERALD & REVIEW
— With tax credit scholarships expiring soon, Illinois schools, parents scramble to fund students’ tuition – ALYSA GUFFEY (COMMENT: How much money do/did your parents have/had? My critics/opponents have always falsely painted my parents as having been filthy rich because they sent me to Trinity Lutheran Grade School in Crete 1953-1961 and then to Hope Lutheran Grade School in Park Forest 1961-1962 to stay with the Missouri Synod. But in fact, my father never earned more than $50,000/year in today’s dollars. He almost always worked second jobs to pay the family’s bills. Because my parents lacked money, I did yard work and delivered newspapers 1962-1964 to buy a 1958 Chevrolet Bel Air in 1964. I washed dishes and delivered newspapers 1964-1966 to buy a new 1966 Pontiac Tempest Sprint in 1966. I cleaned golf shoes, chipped slag, and pumped gasoline in 1966 and delivered mail 1966-1967 to pay my UIC expenses and buy a new 1968 Oldsmobile 442 in 1967. I delivered mail in 1968 to pay for my UIC expenses and buy a new 1969 Dodge Charger SE in 1968. I delivered mail in 1969 to pay for my NIU expenses 1969-1970.)

— Trump wants to fire thousands of government workers. Liberals are preparing to fight back if he wins. – AP (COMMENT: While I worked for the Democrats who ran GAO 1980-1997, IRS 1971-1980, and Post Office 1966-1969, virtually all of my superiors, supervisors, coworkers, and subordinates were Democrats. Virtually all of them despised/hated Republicans. My Democrat superiors and supervisors wasted my career and took many big adverse actions against me. It is called political affiliation discrimination. I should write a book about that.)
