the CATO Institute.. a libertarian think tank funded by the Koch brothers.. just published a study showing immigrants paid more in taxes than they received in benefits every single year from 1994 to 2023..
not a left-wing university.. not a Democratic PAC.. the Koch brothers' own research institute..
they reduced the deficit by $14.5 trillion over 30 years.. they earn less per hour but work at higher rates.. which means higher per capita income.. which means higher taxes paid..
the country spent 30 years being told immigrants were draining the system.. turns out they were funding it.. and the people who told you that knew the numbers the whole time

Immigrants generate more income and taxes than the average person, per CATO Institute.

NEW: ICE Houston announces the arrest of 277 illegal migrants in just 2 weeks including child predators, murderers, & drug traffickers This comes as Houston’s city council is voting tomorrow whether to reverse a recent ordinance it passed which limits police cooperation with ICE. Gov. Abbott froze $110 million in public safety grants for Houston and said it will be pulled if they don’t revoke the ordinance tomorrow because it violates an agreement with the state. “If these measures are implemented to limit that cooperation there will be immediate impacts to public safety, national security, and border security,” ICE Enforcement and Removal Operations Houston acting Field Office Director Paul McBride said.” Among those arrested this month, according to ICE: 1. Haydee Mercado-Rodriguez, a criminal illegal alien and MS-13 gang member from El Salvador, who was convicted and sentenced to 228 years for two counts of aggravated homicide and once count each of aggravated extortion, and participation in a terrorist organization before she fled to the U.S. In 2024, the Biden administration recklessly released her into the U.S. She was arrested April 9 2. Minh Duy Tong Nguyen, a convicted murderer from Vietnam, with a final order of removal from over 25 years ago. Nguyen was arrested April 16 3. Carlos Carmona-Palomo, wanted for homicide in Mexico & illegally entered the U.S. three times and has been convicted twice for drug possession and once each for sexual assault, carrying a prohibited weapon, illegal reentry, and larceny. He was arrested April 6 & then deported 4. Luis Hernandez Martinez, a twice-deported criminal illegal migrant and convicted murderer from Mexico, who was convicted of murder in Upshur County, Texas, in 2003, and has also been convicted of illegal entry. He was arrested April 9 & then deported

@Duaality_ @TheIgboWolf @GodsgreatG what's your alternative, scientifically sound, and non-theological account of how the homo sapiens/erectus/neaderthals species came about?
English
@TheIgboWolf @GodsgreatG There is no scientific proof that human life started “3.5” billion years ago. Modern scientists are abandoning evolution theory because it’s false and full of shit
English
I have a genuine question. Many scientists say humans evolved from apes and other primates. So why don’t we see that kind of evolution happening today? Why does it seem like it stopped?

They do it in the sun. They do it under the stars. They do it in biting April chill and punishing August heat. Baseball is enmeshed with – and an expression of – the season. And they play every day. The game is part of the daily routine. It is life, from April through October.

why does baseball seem so much more romantic than hockey to me maybe it’s because they do it in the sun

there was a time not long ago when masculinity was associated with intelligence, professionalism, creativity and being a gentleman. now it’s synonymous with being a caveman.

I’m fucking disgusted by the rampant Islamophobia in the country and the blatant disregard to condemn it.
We do have a MASSIVE White Christian Nationalism and Zionism problem in the U.S.
But I’m anti-Semitic if I make the obvious observation, right?
Go fuck yourself

Muslims don't belong in American society. Pluralism is a lie.

Talarico: I am tired of being pitted against my neighbor. I'm tired of being told to hate my neighbor. It's been more than ten years of this kind of politics. Politics as bloodsport, politics as trolling and owning politics as total war. It tears families apart. It ends friendships, and it leaves us all feeling terrible all the time.
We cannot defeat the politics of division with more division. We can't win their game. We have to change the game. This campaign is rooted in a fierce love for this state, for this country, and most importantly, for all of our neighbors.

Be prepared, there is a small chance that our horrendous leadership could unknowingly lead us into World War III.
