In related news, I wouldn’t wait 4 hours in a security line to fly to see Jesus.

They're not going to know what hit them at the midterms. If there is any world where Dems don't win both houses, people are going to be in the streets very, very angry because it means that the GOP interfered with elections.
It will mean that the American people have seen the crap that democrats try to pull in an effort to gain power and they aren’t having any of it.
what crap?
Government shut down.
Gerrymandering like in VA and CA.
Advocating for illegal immigrants at the expense of citizens.
Obstructing to prevent Trump from doing anything - lawfare, filibustering, etc.
Four off the top of my head. There are more.
What about the gerrymandering that started it all this cycle in Texas? Where does that sit in your head?

No one is ok with the murder of innocent American citizens. Go get your head checked.
The reality is Democrats had no issue with ICE until enforcement became more serious. My view is that all undocumented immigrants should be deported, and if someone chooses to obstruct enforcement or harm themselves in protest, that is on them. It is literally 2 U.S. citizens on that side of this issue who have died in acts framed around ICE.
Meanwhile, there is no clean national database tracking crimes by undocumented immigrants against Americans, but Texas data alone shows illegal noncitizens were charged with over 1,100 homicide offenses, more than 78,000 assaults, and nearly 600,000 total criminal offenses from 2011 to early 2026, with over 224,000 convictions.
Texas is only about 8 to 9 percent of the U.S. population, so scaling that proportionally suggests nationwide totals would reach into the millions of offenses, including thousands of homicides and hundreds of thousands of assaults over a similar period.
On the labor side, about 9.7 million unauthorized immigrants were in the U.S. workforce in 2023, roughly 5.6 percent of all workers, showing the scale of their presence in the job market.
Whatever your politics, those numbers are far bigger than 2.

The Dems have offered to fund everything except ICE. Please stop with the strawmen.
Trump moved the goalposts anyway. Now he wants his voter suppression bill.
Voter security is not voter suppression.
If someone votes illegally, they are suppressing the vote of others.
It used to be that only people who absolutely could not get to the polls on voting day were able to vote absentee. I voted absentee as a government employee overseas. In those days, I had to get a notarized form to send to the state in order to get a ballot mailed to me.
