​​​​​​Just as Midwestern Voters soured on liberals in the 1980s and started supporting Ronald Reagan's Blue-Collar Republican message, so too are settled-in Mexicans seeming to sour on today's leftist-liberal excesses – and moving over to the GOP.

That suggests gains for Republicans in the Hispanic & Asian Communities.

GIARITELLI: ‘An Expensive Band-Aid on a Gunshot Wound,’ Buckingham Tells Biden

“While I commend Customs & Border Protection for their tireless efforts to police the border, this idea for DHS to spend 10s of millions of dollars or more to build a 'Joint Processing Center' – to accommodate 500 non-citizens in processing, is an expensive Band-Aid on a gunshot wound,” said Texas Land Comm.
