A lot of Republicans TALK about illegal immigration and how it’s sucking our country dry, but few have the intestinal fortitude to pull illegal aliens off the taxpayer funded dime!  Guess who does?  I’m Tomi Lahren, more next.  Last year Governor DeSantis put in motion a multi-pronged crackdown on illegal immigration and those fostering it in Florida.  He signed a law directing hospitals who accept Medicaid to ask patients about their immigration status when they seek treatment.  Patients are not forced to give an answer, but the mere asking of the question seems to be doing the trick. According to Politico, Florida’s Emergency Medical Assistance program for illegal aliens has seen a 54% dip in expenditures billed to Medicaid this year — with less than 2 months remaining in the fiscal year — since this state immigration law took effect.  Now it’s important to note federal law already bars illegals from Medicaid eligibility, though there are plenty of work arounds illegals take advantage of for emergency services, pregnancy and dialysis.  But this DeSantis initiative appears to be making a big dent!! I’m Tomi Lahren and you watch my show “Tomi Lahren is Fearless” at Outkick.com

Aurora’s pallet shelters for people experiencing homelessness, which only allow a maximum 30-day stay, have been cycling the same individuals in and out, city staff told council members Thursday. Many return to street encampments when their time in the pallet shelter runs out, Jessica Prosser, homeless services director for the city, said. Then, the city sweeps the encampment again, and they get to come back to the shelter for another 30 days, Prosser explained. This process can repeat multiple times.

With an assassination attempt on Donald Trump at a rally in Pennsylvania on July 13, 2024, the U.S. experienced another violent episode in its increasingly polarized politics. Former President Trump, who’s about to formally become the GOP nominee for president in the 2024 election, survived the attempted assassination when, initial reports said, a bullet grazed his ear . But one rally attendee was killed , more spectators were injured and the suspected gunman is also dead. The Conversation’s politics editor, Naomi Schalit, spoke with University of Massachusetts, Lowell, scholar Arie Perliger after the event. Perliger offered insight from his study of political violence and assassinations. Given the stark political polarization in the U.S., Perliger said, “it’s not a surprise that eventually people engage in violence.”

A dangerous drug that is being mixed into fentanyl is causing those who inject it to develop a rash of sores that resembles a case of flesh-eating bacteria. People experiencing homelessness around Denver can sometimes be seen with these bloody, weeping wounds. I recently mentioned this phenomenon to a fentanyl user who told me about the xylazine connection.
