I got my weekly email from U.S. Senator Marsha Blackburn, Republican from Tennessee. Sometime I delete them before I read them but this one was headlined " Democrats Oppose the Rule of Law." I nearly laughed out loud.
Topics:
Immigration, "During recent operations in Los Angeles, ICE apprehended convicted murderers, rapists, child abusers, burglars, drug dealers, human traffickers, and other dangerous criminals."... "I worked with the White House to introduce the REMOVE Act, which would empower the Trump administration to deport illegal aliens faster than ever before."

NPR and PBS funding, "American taxpayers have been forced to foot the bill for exorbitant salaries and elaborate work places at NPR and PBS all while these biased public media outlets regularly speak against our nation’s sovereignty and values. For far too long, they have given preference to left-wing, woke ideology and have refused to provide their audiences with both a point and a counterpoint. "

Whatta ya gonna do? Luckily I didn't vote for these bonkers people.
