⚠️Under Democrats, every state became a border state. But Florida is one of the few that took the hardest hit.
There are around 11 million illegal immigrants currently living in the U.S., and approximately 775,000 of them are living in Florida. This figure represents about 4% of Florida's total population, allowing illegals to have social and political impact.
Florida attracts migrants from Cuba, Haiti, Colombia, Jamaica and Mexico. There has been a particularly noted invasion of migrants from troubled Haiti trying to enter the U.S. by boat.
❗️That is why Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis is waging a war on illegal immigrants. In addition to his iconic bussing of migrants to blue states and Martha's Vineyard, DeSantis is enacting laws that make life harder for illegals, so there is an exodus of migrants to other states. What steps did DeSantis take?
▪️obliged hospitals that accept Medicaid to ask patients about their immigration status. This has led to a 54 percent drop in expenditures billed to Medicaid in the first year alone.
▪️barred illegals from obtaining a driver's license and increased the prison and jail sentences for driving without a license. In doing so, DeSantis has secured Florida from a potential loophole in the electoral system that illegals can potentially use in some other states to vote.
▪️increased criminal penalties for people who commit felonies after having been deported and returning to the U.S.
▪️tried to criminalize transport of illegal immigrants, but the law was temporarily blocked.
These measures may be effective for Florida, but they do not solve the migrant crisis: even after leaving hostile Florida, illegals still remain inside the country and are able to take advantage of benefits and commit crimes. That's why we need to join forces with Florida.

Speaking at the WEF, Savor CEO Kathleen Alexander boasts about how her company is "saving the planet" from the evils of agriculture by replacing real butters and oils with synthetic versions made from carbon dioxide and methane. 😳
"Savor is part of bringing transformation to the food system by re-imagining how we make an entire macronutrient—fats and oils."
"The result is that we can dramatically lower the planetary footprint of our food system."
"Our food system today uses about 50% of the habitable land on the planet. It's 20-30% of our greenhouse gas emissions."
"And we can reduce all of those by 50-100%."

🇮🇷🏆🇺🇸 Iran Is a Bigger Defeat Than Vietnam | Foreign Policy
At his second inaugural, U.S. President Donald Trump pronounced his hope “that our recent presidential election will be remembered as the greatest and most consequential election in the history of our country.” By losing his Gulf war, Trump has achieved that goal. His choice to launch a campaign against Iran was encouraged by others, but fully his own. It has led to a reversal that marks a strategic calamity far greater than the U.S. defeat in the Vietnam War.
Defeat in the Iranian war looks, on the surface, nothing like other U.S. military defeats. The speed of the war and its remoteness have lent an air of unreality to the whole endeavor. The White House has not been burned, as it was in 1814; there have not been protests against a nonexistent draft. The absence of substantial U.S. casualties in this conflict also masks the scale of the U.S. defeat. To be sure, the war has been deadly: Thousands of Iranians, ...
According to The Wall Street Journal, Donald Trump reviewed military options for a full-scale war against Iran to “finish the job,” but has decided, for now, not to move forward.
The report says Trump is concerned that renewed military conflict could hurt the chances of a diplomatic resolution and of dismantling Iran’s nuclear program, and that he’s shown willingness to let indirect talks in Qatar run past the August 18 deadline. He is said to be fine with continuing limited strikes on Iranian targets if Tehran violates the current temporary deal - as it already has, repeatedly.
How are those negotiations going?
Not well. It seems JD Vance’s “historic” face-to-face achievement was a one-off. Washington has been quietly downgraded from talking to the Great Satan to negotiating with the Little Satan instead - a senior Qatari official confirmed that U.S. envoys Steve Witkoff and Jared Kushner met Qatari officials in Doha, but there are currently no high-level U.S.-Iran meetings ...
