@pat52378618@Baklava_USA@libsoftiktok You called my data "dishonest" while citing FAIR (a literal hate group that counts U.S. citizen kids as "costs").
I cited CBO, CBP, DOJ, ITEP.
Remittances factored: send ~$15B, pay $96.7B. Net: surplus.
Unemployment 4.1%. Who replaces them?
@pat52378618@Baklava_USA@libsoftiktok I think your confused with what a sanctuary city even is lmao. Crime has also been lowering for 30 years regardless of immigration levels.
@pat52378618@Baklava_USA@libsoftiktok You're making up numbers.
Actual Somali childcare fraud prosecuted: ~$100M, not "billions." FBI investigated, prosecuted offenders.
"Was Tim Walz in on it?" Pure speculation with zero evidence.
@pat52378618@Baklava_USA@libsoftiktok "Somali scams" is racist propaganda.
Yes, some committed childcare fraud. Prosecuted. Not "billions stolen."
Undocumented immigrants PAY $96.7B in taxes they can't access.
Blaming an entire ethnic group for individual crimes while ignoring contributions = racism, not facts.
@pat52378618@Baklava_USA@libsoftiktok You're all emotion:
They pay $96.7B in taxes
Jobs: Unemployment 4.1%, ADD $7T to GDP (CBO) Fentanyl: 90%+ smuggled by U.S. citizens (CBP)
You can't blame millions for individual crimes. They commit LESS crime than citizens (DOJ/Cato)
@pat52378618@Baklava_USA@libsoftiktok You're saying "Marxist!" at peer-reviewed data.
I cited:
CBO (nonpartisan)
CBP (Customs & Border Protection)
Cato Institute (libertarian)
DOJ crime statistics
ITEP tax data
You cited memes and feelings.
Call it communist all you want. Numbers don't care about your paranoia.
@pat52378618@Baklava_USA@libsoftiktok I'm sorry about your brother. Fentanyl is devastating.
But facts matter:
90%+ smuggled by U.S. CITIZENS at legal ports (CBP)
Undocumented commit crimes at LOWER rates (Cato/DOJ)
Blaming all immigrants for cartels is bias, not data
Your pain is real. The blame isn't.
@pat52378618@Baklava_USA@libsoftiktok Your claims are lies:
Federal law BARS undocumented from SNAP/Medicaid SSNs given to LEGAL work-authorized immigrants (DACA/TPS), not "illegals"
Crime data: They commit LESS crime than citizens (FBI/Cato)
I would love for you to provide an actual source rather than a screenshot
@pat52378618@Baklava_USA@libsoftiktok Your logic is broken:
Citizen kids pay taxes for 40+ years, not "costs"
Border Patrol = policy cost, not "benefits"
"CBO compromised" = you ignore data you don't like Fentanyl: 90%+ smuggled by U.S. CITIZENS at legal ports (CBP)
Jobs: Unemployment 4.1%, they ADD $7T (CBO)
@pat52378618@Baklava_USA@libsoftiktok I cited ITEP, CBO, CBP, Cato Institute, and DOJ. All with public data you can verify.
You cited "AI said so" and FAIR (a designated hate group).
I have peer-reviewed studies. You have Grok talking points.
Who's actually using research here? Not you.
Facts > your bot.
@pat52378618@Baklava_USA@libsoftiktok That FAIR "$150B" is trash:
Counts U.S. CITIZEN kids as costs, but conveniently ignores lifetime taxes
Claims $31B paid REAL: $96.7B (hides $65B)
Includes Border Patrol as benefits
CBO: Immigration cuts deficit by $900B
FAIR = hate group. Facts > feelings.
@pat52378618@Baklava_USA@libsoftiktok I provided my actual sources. You are using AI to do your research 😭 That is the difference. I can point to an article or study or some sort of data point proving it. Your just listening to what Daddy grok tells you
@pat52378618@Baklava_USA@libsoftiktok Your "61%" is bullshit—it counts AMERICAN CITIZEN kids as "welfare for illegals."
Undocumented = NO SNAP/welfare/SSI.
THEY PAY: $96.7B in taxes WE SPEND: ~$72B (Medicaid + K-12) NET: +$25B surplus + $7T GDP boost
Facts > feelings.
Also your using grok for research lmao
@pat52378618@Baklava_USA@libsoftiktok Your hatred blinds you to the facts. 2024–26 data:
Taxes: $96.7B paid ($8,889/person)
Medicaid: Ineligible; Emergency care is <1% of budget
Hotels: Avg. $156/night, not $400
GDP: Labor adds $7T
Deficit: Immigration REDUCES it by $900B
Facts not feelings.
@ninja_wx@ThunderChats Yeah the reffing was horrible on both sides but it hurt the lakers way more. It was much more in favor of okc and gave them a win
