To the editor:
Considering the declassified material coming out about how Barack Obama and the Democratic Party weaponized the government against Donald Trump -- Democrats say this is old news; we're moving on, but Trump's justice department isn't. The Democrats will soon be held accountable for their mendacity. Even unions are abandoning the party.
Democrats cry about gerrymandering in Texas, but they perfected the art. Here are some facts: Massachusetts was gerrymandered to prevent any Republican representatives from holding any of its 11 seats in Congress, although Trump won 42 percent of the vote. Illinois has 17 seats; Republicans hold three, but Trump won 45 percent of the vote. Democrats are upset because Republicans are playing their game.
Of 310,000 illegal aliens deported, many are convicted criminals, and a portion of those have deportation orders. Why do Democrats protect them? In the last three months there have been zero illegal aliens released into America. ICE received more than 100,000 applications for 10,000 vacancies. These 10,000 agents will provide security and maintain the sovereignty of America. Why don't Democrats want this? Why do Democrats believe men should play in women's sports, gender-affirming care and drag queens teaching kindergartners about homosexuality are progress?
Congresswoman Jasmine Crockett stated that Melania Trump is dumb. Melania speaks five languages.
More Democratic lies: Sen. Chuck Schumer stated the new White House ballroom will cost Americans $250 million. The truth: Trump's funding the project himself.
The NPR chairwoman said in closing a broadcast that thousands will die in Alaska. What? If they do, I will apologize for calling her really stupid. Some claim Washington, D.C., is a safe city. Schumer stated he takes early morning walks around D.C. He doesn't tell you he's surrounded by a protection detail. It's deceit and lies.
During the Democrat Socialists of America convention, they stated they want to abolish the family; provide free housing, education and welfare for illegals and defund police. Is this the platform of local Democrats?
Some people have no grasp of reality or history. Here's proof: In John Rucki's letter, "Where's the help for Gaza?" (Aug. 3), the writer asks for the genocide in Gaza to be stopped. Where in history has there been a warring country (Israel) feeding and providing medical assistance to its enemy? The writer doesn't understand genocide. Did he forget Hamas murdered 1,400 Jews by cutting off the heads of mothers in front of their children, putting babies in ovens and raping wives in front of their husbands, or the 6 million Jews who were murdered in Germany?
In Richard Hord's letter, "Changing view of immigrants" (July 27), he never used "illegal immigrant." The writer claims ICE is deporting them without due process. They sneaked in without due process. Those being deported already had deportation orders issued against them. The writer discusses concentration camps, comparing them to Hitler's.
These illegals get three hots, a cot, and air conditioning and are flown out alive. Democrats, stop embarrassing yourselves.
