CORRECTION OF THE DAY: “This article was amended on 6 October 2026. Trump suggested that Iran could “take out” the two cities, but did not suggest that it do so, as the original headline indicated.” https://t.co/XUuPP2YuL3

Most important: Does Talarico support ANY limit on the number of migrants who can come through his proposed “front door”? It seems no. Once they’ve passed his “orderly vetting process” they’re in for good. How many millions? https://t.co/uFBhDG03Hj

Remember the “pay back taxes” thing is largely a fraud too. There are insurmountable logistical problems with figuring out how much in taxes illegals should have paid, which is why the Obama-era Gang of 8 quickly gave up on that idea, settling for only those who who “already have a past-due bill with the Internal Revenue Service.” https://t.co/rBsIMQjZue Most obviously that leaves out “income taxes that weren’t paid or assessed because illegal immigrants were working off the books, or using fraudulent Social Security numbers.” https://t.co/XFE2Ee2Qy8

Jodie Allen was a hero of welfare reform in the Carter presidency–she and a merry band at the Labor Dept. pushed the case for work, not cash, fending off HHS Secretary Joe Califano, who was lobbying Carter for a guarantee income. Neither happened, but Allen & Co.’s efforts set the stage for Bill Clinton’s work-oriented reform two decades later. She was an inspiration and a lovely person.

If he weren’t Trump, and hadn’t attacked Iran, the president would actually have a serious list of accomplishments to point to:
–border controlled (Biden hemorrhage halted)
–economic growth fine
–signs of manufacturing renewal
–crime continuing to fall
–Woke fading, race preferences on the run
–government actually shrinking in size
–ICE less performatively aggressive but doing its job
–Worthwhile Greenland Initiative

Read my lips: No New Cars. “Fewer new models are hitting the market than at any time in recent history.” It seems all the time and money was spent on the Dems’ forced Green push into EVs that buyers didn’t want. The preferred gas/hybrid cars/trucks that are on sale seem tired.
