Dick, that is something for Americans to decide. Meanwhile, enforce immigration law.

Turban Durbin does not speak for me! I'm not sure he's been right (correct) about anything in the almost 30 years he's been in Congress . . . but, "they" keep electing him. Term limits, anybody?

Our future will be created by the "makers"; "takers" steal from our future and will help in the destruction of the country. I believe this is why Dick supports the "takers". This is not to cast aspersions on immigrants /refugees who come here LEGALLY with the purpose of making better lives for themselves and their families. By doing that, they will be producing benefits for the country as well. Doesn't seem that Dickie is interested in them.

Um, no. Do not allow them to link the DACA "kids", most who are now adults, with the rest of the immigration problems today's Democrats created. If Durbin wants to try to legalize the DACA members he should bring up a stand alone bill. And, any talk of "path to legalization" should start at the end of the current line of those waiting to become citizens. Most wait over 10 years in that line. Yes, it would seem unfair but the Democrats have done this to those DACA members all by themselves.

The DACA kids aren't kids anymore. They are adults. Stop treating them like helpless little children and giving them protections and free stuff. As adults, they are capable of applying for Green cards or citizenship just like everyone else. Take off the kis gloves and stop treating illegals as some sort of special protected class of people. Make them follow the laws like US citizens have to!

If you read nothing but posts from conservative influencers on X, you’d be convinced that Donald Trump has already won the 2024 election.[Snip] While it’s certainly possible the polls are accurate, the outcome of recent elections should give conservatives reason to pump the brakes on celebrating before any ballots have been cast. Case in point: A special election held in Ohio’s 6th Congressional District on Tuesday.[Snip] While Rulli defeated Kripchak in Tuesday’s matchup and expanded Republicans’ thin House majority, the election was much closer than originally predicted. Preliminary results indicate Rulli won the race by 9.4 points — a more than 20-point shift in Democrats favor.

The president's actions came Tuesday as Florida Democratic Party Chair Nikki Fried, the state's former Democratic gubernatorial nominee, blasted an upcoming law restricting abortion to within six weeks of gestation.

The judge declared multiple statutes related to puberty blockers, hormone treatments, and surgeries to be unconstitutional. The law was aimed at preventing medical facilities from prescribing irreversible “gender-affirming” treatments to young children. Several studies have shown these treatments to be not only ineffective but harmful to minors suffering from gender dysphoria. Nevertheless, the judge struck down the measure.

On June 12, the Massachusetts House is expected to vote on a bill that would allow mothers to exchange their children for money—that is, engage in baby-selling—under the name of “parentage equality.” The “Parentage Equality” bill seeks to redefine parenthood. Parenthood is recognized on its natural biological basis, or in cases of adoption, justice for a child who has suffered loss by providing them with a safe, loving home. This bill redefines it on the basis of a “person’s intent to be a parent of a child.” In doing so, it strips all mention of mothers and fathers from parentage law, replacing these vital familial roles with gender-erased language.
