ported. They didn't come here for crime and they actually I believe have a lower crime rate than population in general. I think I can use a fact check on that but I think historically people really want to stay off of law enforcement's radar and just work so they actually did have a lower crime rate. Yeah so that could be true but it could also be true that any extra deaths are too much. That's j…

million is going to be really really good for the country if we get the best people from other countries etc. But I don't think we can do that with DEI. I think as long as DEI is in place you're not going to get the best people coming to this country. It's definitely going to be a little bit of a gating factor I would think.

All right so just keep an eye on it. And if I were the Republicans here's what I would do. I would create a, might use AI, that would give a very maybe three or four point explanation of what a Democrat is and what a Republican is and I would hand it out to every migrant I could find. Now the news would pick it up and they'd say look what these damn white supremacists are doing. They're giving out these little leaflets to everybody and it's telling you what's the difference between a Republican and a Democrat. Oh and then they would talk about it and then the other migrants would hear about it in the news. I don't know if they're watching a lot of news but let's say. And it would just become a frame. Because right now we're allowing the Democrats, all of us collectively, we're allowing the Democrats to frame it as of course there are Democrats. And I do think that that might be persuading people coming in that they must be Democrats if the only thing they hear is Democrats saying hey we're the ones who let you in. Be a Democrat. I'd probably sign up if I didn't know anything else except the Democrats want me here and the Republicans are complaining. I'd be a Democrat if it's all I knew and I'd probably sign a paper if they put it in front of me etc.

Yeah and the right wingers are probably saying bad things about Republicans even before they get here. So suppose somebody gets here and you hand them a document that says if you're a Republican you like God and families and no abortion, whatever you think would get the migrant people on your side. But because you're the ones who decide how to frame the other side you just frame them in the worst possible way and probably that's enough. I mean it would certainly change the equation in terms of how enthusiastic were the Democrats about bringing in new voters. I think you could get at least half of them to register Republican with a little bit of work. Yeah. And then you use AI to translate it into as many languages as you need. So if you keep the differences between Democrat and Republican to let's say four items, one will allow the government to transition your child to another gender without telling you. Just simple stuff right. And if there's only let's say four bullet points on each one you could on one document translate it into 80% of the languages they use. Just use AI. Wouldn't take you but a moment.

Jonathan Turley is talking about these so-called enhanced sentences. So some of the January 6 people got enhanced meaning longer sentences because there was an argument there was something about it that made it extra bad even within the field of crime that they were alleged

to have committed. But I didn't know this. Did you know that in a TV interview at some point wasn't recently but Justice official Michael Sherwin he said quote our office wanted to ensure that there was shock and awe meaning that the sentences were extra stiff. Shock and awe. It worked because we saw through the media posts that people were afraid to come back to DC because they're like if we go t…
