Listen up, people. These numbers are a how-to guide for flushing a country down the toilet!!
45.6% of Afghan immigrants, 42.4% of Somali immigrants, 34.8% of Iraqi immigrants are on SNAP.
Illegal-alien households at 59% on major welfare.
You import from the third world, and they disproportionately consume the benefits.
The “worst of the worst” deportation focus will never round these people up. And they’re likely worse than the known criminals, because no one has any idea what they did back home.
If the policy only removes the already-caught criminals, the system stays on the same trajectory.
Change my mind.
Newsmax host @RobFinnertyUSA just said what no one in mainstream media will admit about SNAP.
He tore the mask off the entire food stamps program...and what he revealed will infuriate taxpayers.
It’s far worse than anyone realized.
“There are 42 million people in this country that need food stamps on a weekly basis.”
“And we’re saying ‘people’ deliberately instead of Americans because most of the people that are on food stamps aren’t even from this country.”
“45% of Afghanistan immigrants are on food stamps.”
“42% of Somali immigrants, 34% of every immigrant from Iraq, 23% of Haitians.”
“59% of ALL illegal aliens are collecting food stamps, meaning that most of the people getting food stamps from the U.S. Government and the U.S. Taxpayer are not even Americans.”
“Think about that.”
“And we didn’t know about any of this before the government shutdown started.”
“But thanks to Democrats, we can confirm tonight that millions of Joe Biden, illegal aliens, people who crossed the border when Joe was president, are now collecting food stamps from a program funded by hardworking American taxpayers.”

Easy to vote, hard to cheat. @SarahEHunt01 on how Rainey Center supports the state and local officials who run and shape America's elections. #RaineyCenter #FreeAndFairElections
People don't realize how genuinely scummy the political consultant class in this country is. A more detestable lot I have never encountered.
These people care about NOTHING but money.
5 minutes with one of these weirdos and you want to take a long shower.
If @KenPaxtonTX loses in Texas, it won't be because he wasn't a good candidate, it won't be because of @potus, IT WILL BE BECAUSE OF THE DUMB CONSULTANTS who they hire that give them POOR advise. They dont care if you win or lose ALL they care about is how much money you raise for them!

In this interview with FL Governor nominee @ByronDonalds I learned three major things:
#1 - He's focused on AFFORDABILITY...
#2 - He speaks CLEARLY about issues that affect Floridians...
#3 - He wants your vote whether you've voted Red OR Blue in the past.

Republicans are underperforming in Polk County. We have a voter registration advantage of 60,000 in the county and it went R+30 four years ago.
In this interview with FL Governor nominee @ByronDonalds I learned three major things:
#1 - He's focused on AFFORDABILITY...
#2 - He speaks CLEARLY about issues that affect Floridians...
#3 - He wants your vote whether you've voted Red OR Blue in the past.
This was a great interview that was actually quite substantive about the issues that matter to Floridians!
Drops tomorrow!
I'll be interviewing Florida Republican Governor nominee @ByronDonalds tomorrow afternoon.
What should I ask him?
Give me suggestions in the comments!

Hello Ambassador, thank you for the respectful reply.
Since you represent Nigeria, you are somewhat misguided in your assertion of legal immigration from your country, as 33% of Nigerian households in America are on public assistance provided by American taxpayers.
While this is less than the 81% of Somalis, 53% of Haitians, and 48% of Ethiopians that receive welfare here - the number should be 0%. Legal immigrants should not be coming to America and receiving a single dollar of taxpayer assistance - and they certainly shouldn’t be given precedence over Black Americans for opportunities in this country as I’m sure we wouldn’t be given precedence over Nigerians in your country,
There are many Nigerians who have legally Immigrated to America and become great successes here. That is wonderful. I just wish the 33% on welfare could find more success without the help of the American taxpayers.
Dear Mr Smith @robsmithonline,
Thabk you for bringing this up. However, I must highlight that this assertion is fallacious. African immigrants to the United States are some of the most highly skilled, especially in STEM education.
For example, Nigerian immigrants in the United States are among the ten most educated immigrant community in America, according to the US Census Bureau. 65% of Nigerian immigrants in the US hold at least a bachelor's degree, or higher.
In terms of their proportion of the US population, almost no other immigrant or native born community in the United States has as many doctors and nurses per capita as the Nigerian community.
Our medical professionals in the US are amongst the best, including Dr Oluyinka Olutoye, Chief of Surgery at Nationwide Children's Hospital, Texas, and a pioneer of fetal and neonatal surgery. He is the first person on Earth to successfully perform a surgery by taking out an unborn fetus from its mother’s womb and putting it back after the surgery.
Amongst the wealthiest Black entrepreneurs in America, no other immigrant community gestures ad much as Nigerians, with at least four Nigerian Americans being dollar billionaires.
They include Adebayo Ogunlesi, Tope Awotona, and Wemimo Abbey. Collectively, they are worth over $4 billion.
Finally, in her book The Triple Package, Tiger Mum and bestselling author, Amy Chua, raised that issue saying "Nigerian" is the only black ethnicity listed among the eight social groups that have a "cultural edge" when it comes to succeeding and climbing the ranks in America".
In the light of the above, I am not sure that the highlighted claim about African immigrants is accurate.
Thank you and may God bless you.

Forget AI slop. @katieharbath is watching "AI candy": AI content we can't detect and don't mind because it's entertaining. Why that matters for politics heading into 2028, from her Disrupting Politics launch with @SarahEHunt01 and @robsmithonline.

I am not an "African-American."
I am a Black American.
African Immigration from low-skilled communities into the U.S. is a NEGATIVE for Black AMERICANS.
While Democrat hacks are afraid to say this because it may damage their "coalition," I am NOT.
I'll be interviewing Florida Republican Governor nominee @ByronDonalds tomorrow afternoon.
