Sen. Steve Daines, R-Mont., announced legislation Monday to stop Homeland Security from offering “parole” to migrants whom the government has flagged as terrorists or who are deemed “special interest” because of their origin and travel patterns.

Daines’ bill has already drawn support from Heritage Action, the Immigration Accountability Project, the Federation for American Immigration Reform, NumbersUSA, and the America First Policy Institute. Read More Here

“They stole the race from Biden after he won it in the primaries — A First! These people are the real threat to democracy!”
Trump also asked, “Who is running our Country right now? It’s not Crooked Joe, he has no idea where he is.” Read Full Story
