“All we gained in the Middle East was the loss of our freedoms and culture back home.” @NateSchlomann
I am 45 years old, and I have spent almost all of my adult life being against wars in the Middle East, because of what was done to our generation for nothing. All we gained in the Middle East was the loss of our freedoms and culture back home.
People over 50 years old just don't seem to understand that this is an intractable issue for most ultra-conservative men like me and younger, and you cannot win anything without us.
Not one more $ or life in the Middle East, and we don't care about the consequences. We'd rather deal with the "consequences."

I just listened to some Fox News slop while driving around and these people are defending the Iran War and dogging on Vance. We are in so much trouble. They are handing the country to socialists.
I hope the Trump Admin sees this. Both of these things (mass deportations and ending H-1Bs) can be done even when Democrats control Congress.
And @Djkeene1 is exactly right to connect it with the economic and opportunity issues.
@Phase2Deport
We’re heading into a period where it’s going to be an all out fight against amnesty every week—and there are few better follows on this issue than @ScottMechkowski!
🚨 WE ALREADY TRIED AMNESTY. CALIFORNIA IS THE RECEIPT.
Thank you @ItsYourGov for sharing my new piece in @DailyCaller.
Forty years ago this month, Reagan signed the 1986 amnesty.¹ The deal was simple. Legalize the people already here, punish the employers who hired them, secure the border, and the problem goes away for good.
About 2.7 million people got green cards.² The enforcement half never showed up. By 2013 the illegal population had climbed past 11 million.³ Some estimates today run as high as 22 million.⁴
Now look at the map. California filed 55% of the applications.⁵ It voted Republican for president six straight times through 1988. It hasn't voted Republican once since.⁶
And the lobbyists want round two in the lame duck. Call it a pathway, a work permit, a farm visa or a deal for the landscapers. Legal status for people who broke the law to get here is amnesty. Every amnesty tells the next wave the same thing: get here, hold on, and Washington will make it legal.
Every Republican should vote against any form of amnesty, no matter how it's disguised. Before anyone cuts a deal, look at that map.
¹ Immigration Reform and Control Act, signed Nov. 6, 1986
² INS/DHS legalization data
³ Pew Research Center and DHS estimates
⁴ Yale/MIT study, PLOS ONE, 2018
⁵ INS legalization applicant data
⁶ Official presidential election results, 1968–2024

I promise you want to read it . Goodnight and thank you all !
🌾 CONGRESS IS SLIPPING AMNESTY INTO A FARM LABOR BILL
Don't take my word for it. Read the official summary from the Congressional Research Service.
H.R. 9535, the "Securing Agriculture's Workforce Act." Sponsored by House Agriculture Chairman Glenn Thompson. 61 cosponsors, 52 of them Republicans.
One line tells you everything. The bill "establishes an H-2A visa pathway for current unauthorized agricultural workers who otherwise meet requirements."
Current unauthorized workers. People who are here illegally right now.
The sponsor's pitch: "With the border now secure, it is time to address these shortcomings."
The border is more secure because we finally started enforcing the law. You don't reward that by handing a visa to the people who broke it.
And the timing couldn't be worse. Monday night the President said, "We haven't put the same pressure on waitresses and on farmworkers, etc. Not even close." That's exactly the opening this bill's supporters have been waiting for.
We've seen this movie before. In 1986 Congress created the Special Agricultural Worker program, and it was riddled with fraud, with applicants claiming farm work they never did. My career taught me that every carve-out turns into a business model. Make farm work the safe lane and the fake employment letters will show up by the truckload.
Farmers have a real labor problem and I'm not dismissing it. Fix H-2A. Speed it up. Cut the red tape. Let it run year-round. That's legal labor and I'll support it.
But a visa for people who are here illegally isn't a workforce plan. It's amnesty in overalls.
Call your representative and ask one question: are you one of the 61?

I recorded a direct to camera video with “5 Lessons for Republicans after the Midterms Blowout”
Not my usual speed. Tried to edit myself—didn’t work! Tapped in a friend and hopefully it will be out tomorrow!

Want young men reinvigorated? Deport so many foreigners that corporations have to come crawling to them to hire them.
We need to rebalance the worker-employer relationship for the middle class.
Deportations does this. Especially ending H-1Bs

James Lankford drafted the disastrous 2024 border bill that would have fast-tracked work permits for illegal aliens claiming asylum, and he also pushed amnesty in 2017.
He should be primaried, not leading Republicans on the Senate Homeland Security Committee!
C’mon Oklahoma…

AMNESTY ALERT 🚨
@ScottMechkowski is sounding the alarm on amnesty disguised as farm labor reform.
H.R. 9535 would give qualifying unauthorized farmworkers a pathway to H-2A visas—and 61 lawmakers have already signed on.
NO AMNESTY!
