Florida state Sen. Jason Pizzo (D) has filed a bill that would require employers to use E-Verify to prevent the hiring of illegal migrants.
Here’s a person who gets it. Maybe more of his fellow Democrats will follow. Not just Florida, but nation wide.
“There were no real penalties attached to existing law, so we added several — including permanent revocation of business license and up to $500,000 fine where a death results,” he said on his X thread:
The bill also includes a fine of $10,000 and a revocation of licenses for a year for a first offense. And a $250,000 fine and permanent loss of license for a third offense.
Arabs receive food meals cooked by World Central Kitchen (WCK) after the charity resumed operations at a school sheltering displaced people in central Gaza on Wednesday. Edited.

Yes Virginia, resettling 1.8 million Arabs isn’t a difficult task.
Granted it might be hard to get a country to take Arabs who sympathize with and harbor terrorists, but moving them shouldn’t be a problem.
India and Pakistan both resettled millions. After WW11 the allies removed three million Germans from Sudetenland. So if that could be done all those years ago, shouldn’t be an issue today.
And after Gaza is rebuilt the ones who were totally vetted could return on a trial basis.
Why Conservatives and the majority of Americans are on the 80% of all issues.
This morning I heard the perfect breakdown of what’s called 80 20. Take all the issues of today and what’s President Trump is doing is supported by the 80.
Democrat politicians supporting Illegals, Transgender, Wasteful Spending, Hollywood, Silicon Valley, and finally old men and women being guided by the 20 and 30 something crowd.
The 2024 elections gave President Trump a mandate. He was open about what he was going to do and he was also open about Musk. The President said a sledge hammer would be used to fix things. Promises made, Promises kept.

President Trump yesterday signed 200 executive orders and in those 200 were the J6 pardons and the revoking of security clearance of 51 former intel officers.
The letter came after the New York Post reported they had emails showing Hunter Biden coordinated for Joe Biden to meet with a top executive at Ukrainian energy company Burisma months before pressuring Ukrainian officials to oust a prosecutor investigating the company.
Other executive orders Trump signed on day one include rescinding nearly 80 executive orders and memoranda issued under Biden, issuing a regulatory and hiring freeze upon the federal government, preventing “government censorship” of free speech, and directing every department and agency to address the cost-of-living crisis.
I read in the Sacramento Bee where the undocumented are crying that they might get caught and sent back home. We know the numbers higher, but even if we do get rid of 1.8 million in California it’s a good start.
Last week’s U.S. Border Patrol operation in Kern County offered a preview of what could come. The enforcement activity, which immigration advocates said was the largest in the Central Valley in years, sent panic across California. The arrests signaled that not even California and its progressive policies would be safe from Trump’s vow of mass deportations.
Sweden is preparing to change the constitution to be able to take away the passports of people who obtained citizenship by fraudulent means, or who are a threat to the state, the government said on Wednesday.
People with dual nationality who received citizenship by providing false information, bribery or threats, as well as people convicted of crimes like espionage or treason could be stripped of their Swedish passports if the law is passed.
The government proposed that the time before an immigrant living in Sweden can apply for citizenship be raised to eight years from five.
So Elon Musk supports a German politician who’s anti undocumented immigrants, doesn’t believe in mutilating children, and just might have morals and ethics.
Former EU censorship czar, Thierry Breton, who was accused of meddling in the U.S. presidential election by demanding Musk censor a live interview he held with Donald Trump, also alleged that it was “interference” for X boss to express support for the AfD.
However, the German government has refused to condemn Musk for his comments, with spokeswoman Christiane Hoffmann saying: “We have of course taken note of this and of course freedom of expression also applies to X.”
Dear @elonmusk, Thank you so much for your note. The Alternative for Germany is indeed the one and only alternative for our country; our very last option. I wish you and President Donald #Trump all the best for the upcoming tenure! And also, I wish you and all the American people… pic.twitter.com/iVBfPDoRfp
The Florida governor is doing it the right way and he’s letting us all know. “FL’s best-in-the-nation legislation combating illegal immigration generated the typical array of false media narratives,” DeSantis wrote on X. “That such narratives blew up shows that good policy pays dividends.”

“So far, the critics have been wrong. Florida’s economy has continued to grow despite warnings about the impact of SB1718. According to the Bureau of Economic Analysis, the state’s gross domestic product increased by 9.2% last year, tops in the nation and outpacing the national average by nearly 3 percentage points. In 2024, Florida’s economic growth remains strong, surpassing the national average in the first two quarters of the year, with Florida being one of just a handful of states to post 6% growth or higher in both quarters. This comes despite the Florida Policy Institute warning that the E-Verify requirement alone could cost the state $12.6 billion in its first year,” Forbes wrote in November.
Sore Losers: Senate Dems want to Eliminate the Electoral College Via Constitutional Amendment.
There’s a good reason why a jackass symbolizes the misnamed “Democratic” party!
I walked away too.
Senate Democrats, having failed to defeat President-elect Donald Trump in the 2024 election, want to change the rules.
Ironically, however, those same Senate Democrats do not seem to understand that their arguments for destroying a core principle of our federal republic would also justify eliminating the Senate itself.
Monday on the social media platform X, the Senate Judiciary Committee, chaired by Democratic Sen. Dick Durbin of Illinois, announced a “bill to abolish the Electoral College, restoring democracy by allowing the direct election of presidents through popular vote alone.”
Durbin, who has also proposed arming illegal immigrants, joined two of his colleagues, Democratic Sen. Brian Schatz of Hawaii and Democratic Sen. Peter Welch of Vermont, in introducing a proposed constitutional amendment that, if adopted, would abolish the Electoral College.
“In 2000, before the general election, I introduced a bipartisan resolution to amend the Constitution and abolish the Electoral College. I still believe today that it’s time to retire this 18th century invention,” Durbin said.
Fortunately, the authors of the Constitution understood the tyrannical threat posed by people like Durbin.
Hence, an amendment is required to eliminate something as fundamental to our federal republic as the Electoral College, which appears in Article II, Section 1 of the Constitution.
Under Article V, two thirds of both houses of Congress, plus three fourths of the states, must approve said amendment.
In other words, Senate Democrats have no chance of abolishing the Electoral College, that perennial object of their unhinged fixation.
Still, their behavior requires explanation. And voters need to understand why they must never allow Democrats to succeed in their sinister quest.
First, the reason for Monday’s announcement seems obvious. Senate Democrats hope to change the narrative surrounding Trump’s victory.
According to the Associated Press, with all states finallyhaving counted at least 99 percent of votes from the 2024 election, Trump will win the national popular vote by more than two million votes. Thus, Senate Democrats’ constitutional amendment would not have changed the outcome.
Still, Trump has generated significant momentum and stands poised to reenter the White House as popular as ever. Senate Democrats, therefore, needed to rally their own voters around their shopworn lie of defending “democracy.”
Moreover, recent history has proven that Democrats prosper amid the electoral chaos they create. And eliminating the Electoral College would sow unfathomable chaos.
Imagine how presidential elections would unfold if determined by the national popular vote. Imagine waiting on California, for instance, to finish counting its votes more than a month after Election Day.
As it stands, California awards 54 electoral votes — no more, no less. So we know in advance exactly the degree to which Californians will influence the election’s outcome.
But what if California Democrats had an incentive to find as many votes as possible? Would any Republican trust the outcome of elections conducted in that manner?
Second — one marvels at the irony — Senate Democrats’ argument for abolishing the Electoral College also applies to the Senate.
“I’m excited to partner with my friends and colleagues Senator Schatz and Chair Durbin on this important constitutional amendment, which will help empower every voter in every state,” Welch said, per The Hill.
But the Senate itself does not reflect the will of “every voter in every state” — far from it.
In fact, the Electoral College, which awards electoral votes based on a state’s population, comes exponentially closer to reflecting the will of “every voter in every state” than the Senate ever has or ever will.
Indeed, regardless of population, two senators per state hardly sounds like “democracy.”
And that is the point: America’s constitutional republic incorporates democratic principles, but it is not a democracy, and it must never become one, lest we endure the unbridled tyranny of electoral majorities.
Instead, America’s constitutional system provides for a meaningful division of power between the national and state governments. The Electoral College, by empowering the people of all the states to conduct their own elections and award their electoral votes as they see fit consistent with the Constitution, helps prevent the tyrannical consolidation of states into a single, omnipotent national government.
Thus, Democratic leadership must never succeed in eliminating the Electoral College. Should they do so, they would create a convincing argument for abolishing the Senate itself. At that point, the federal constitutional structure would have collapsed, and the Union would likely dissolve.
Of course it should take California 30 days to count ballots. 10 million undocumented.
When you add in all of the undocumented, California has over 50 million people. At least 10 million of the undocumented are of voting age.
Being that California allows ballots to come in seven days after election day, of course folks will wonder if there’s fraud. Also when you send up to 5 ballots to the same house and you have a thousand people who use the same apartment number, you tell me that doesn’t make you wonder?
The Federal government needs to take over the elections in California.
