Dems take Santos Seat in House

[Curried Goats]

Conservatives are fleeing Blue States by the millions. Blue states will be darker blue every year.

With less and less seats in Congress.

NY, CA, IL, PA have all lost seats already.

Are conservatives fleeing? Is that why Georgia went purple or why the largest growing cities in Texas are the ones with increasing Black and Brown populations?

Migrant crime is turning cities into war zones

Criminals posing as asylum seekers are turning American cities into war zones.

The Venezuelan gang Tren de Aragua, feared for how it tortures its victims, is setting up shop in New York City, police sources revealed to The Post.

Prayers up for the peace keepers in NYC, and may God himself teach the newcomers that crime is a bad thing.

Any time voters turn against Republicans, Republicans can do two things

Ask….What did we do wrong?

Claim the election was stolen

A maga princess like Kari Lake would not have given up like this.

Oh by the way, did I mention? A huge part of those jobs your idiot "president" supposedly "created", were government jobs.

Another large part of those "jobs" were millions of illegals taking low-paid jobs away from black folks.

At least the black folks paid taxes when they had those jobs, unlike illegals.

 

[JGalt]

Was that stolen from a teleprompter in front of Ole' Sloe Joe... "end of sentence repeat the line"

Undoubtedly. Remember this one?



Earpiece: “Salute the Marines”

Biden: “Mmfmmmffug [through face rag] … Salute the Marine …”

Who was Al Franken again?

 

[Mr Natural]

NEGATIVE…I’m still white, male, heterosexual, Christian and wealthy…Life is always good.

You got it all pal!

Then why are you so pissed off?

 

[Crepitus]

We’ve read your hatefilled posts. If you are actually wealthy life is truly not fair

I will note however you never said you were happy or loved. I suspect t neither

Have you noticed all the republicans here claim to be wealthy? Most say they have large investment portfolios, a summer home somewhere, expensive cars/trucks. and trophy wives.

Statistically speaking they cannot all be rich.

Just sayin'.

Despite campaign promises to the contrary, Trump opened the contract and grant spigots instead, adding more than 2 million jobs to the blended federal workforce, including 1 million in the Departments of Defense, Transportation, and Health and Human Services alone.

How do you condemn a president you don't support for doing the same thing as the president you did support?

 

[C_Clayton_Jones]

Get it right, dumb ass. You Democrats are not interested in "immigration reform", you're pushing "naturalization reform."

This is a lie.

"There were more than 9.5 million non‐farm job openings in September 2023, below the average of about 10.4 million per month during the Biden administration. The number of non‐farm job openings in September 2023 is higher than at any point during the Trump, Obama, or Bush administrations. The wage gain for immigrants in the United States is already between about a four‐fold and a ten‐fold increase compared to labor in mostly Latin American and Caribbean countries, even accounting for the higher cost of living in the United States. Since legal migration is very restricted, many come illegally to work.

There simply are not enough temporary work visas available in enough sectors of the US economy for legal migrant workers to meet the demand, so illegal migrant workers meet it. That already high wage premium and extraordinary labor demand likely explain why the number of Border Patrol encounters and job openings track closely."

"In 2022, a record number of illegal immigrants – roughly 1 million – came to the United States (see FAIR). Again, assuming the average rate of labor force participation, this equates to roughly 630,000 new workers. During 2022, the labor market created 4.8 million new payroll jobs. By this calculation, illegal immigration accounted for approximately 13 percent of new hires that year."

"Indeed, as far back as the period between 1960-2000, illegal immigration accounted for a significant relative decline in black wage and employment rates because a sizable percentage of each cohort competed in the same low-skilled labor markets. Accordingly, relative employment rates for black males in low-skill job categories dropped by as much as 7 percent; wages dropped by up to 9 percent...

The current flood of illegal immigration has also aggravated the competition between blacks and illegal aliens for government and social services."

Nice try Skippy, but you failed miserably to prove your claim that “a huge part” of jobs under Biden were Government Jobs

New York special election replay: Democrat Tom Suozzi defeats Republican Mazi Pilip

While the election may seem like a simple, local race, it was watched closely by Americans across the country.

That's the real reason why the libs were anxious to throw out Santos. Any Republican in Congress that voted for this is a disgrace.

Any Republican who voted for Santos is a disgrace

 

[Chillicothe]

"If the Republicans had gotten out in front of the Santos, when they knew what they had early, instead of trying to protect numbers, the electorate might have kept faith. But, slow walking, makes it appear Republicans only interested in numbers and will accept any lying crook, that has successfully misled the public, to sneak into office."

The poster White 6 offers the forum a perceptive take on why the Republican lost so badly. True, the Dems spent more, and the winner had name recognition, but.....the GOP has been winning on Long Island for the last several years. And Soros had, I think, won it by about 8pts.

Mishandling the Soros scandal has left a mark.

Progs sacrifice one at times. To make it look like we have a "Democracy". It's like Jon Stewart criticizing Joe the first night he returned to his so-called comedy as he is a political shill. The stage is set of course for Republicans to be skewered for anything and everything and Trump is in the gunsights. The system now is slowly inverting to see if Progs are true to their views. The next step is to push the illegals from Sancturary cities into the suburbs as an example. Progressive dominated ones will be tested like Marthas Vinyard was.

Politics is like sales. Picking up new customers is not that hard as new customers enter the market. The hard customer to pick up, is the one you company lost due to a Fk up, careless ignoring, or woe be unto the company, that has an employ cheat a customer, thinking short term gain more important than trust. You may come into that territory and never get that customer back. Customers hod grudge for being fkd over, even if you had nothing to do with it, and indeed the employee was fired, as your company should not have hired in the first place or been their top protect against harm, supposedly being honorable men.
