Senate Majority Leader Chuck Schumer (D-N.Y.) recently blamed America’s current labor shortage, in part, on former President Donald Trump’s efforts to fight illegal immigration. What did he say?
Speaking with reporters Monday after the Senate parliamentarian ruled against including a pathway to citizenship in the forthcoming budget reconciliation, Schumer claimed that one of the major reasons for the worker shortage has to do with “how Trump cut back on immigrants.”
“The American people understand that fixing our broken immigration system is a moral imperative [and] also an economic imperative because immigrants are so important to our economy,” the top Democrat said.
“Talk about shortage of workers — one of the main reasons is how Trump cut back on immigrants, both documented and undocumented,” he argued. The lawmaker added earlier, in specific reference to the Senate parliamentarian’s ruling, that the decision was “extremely disappointing” to him.
“It saddened me, it frustrated me, it angered me, because so many lives are at stake. But, make no mistake, the fight continues,” he said. What’s the background?
Schumer and other Democrats in Congress had been working diligently alongside the Biden administration to pass progressive immigration reform as part of the president’s $3.5 trillion spending plan by providing green cards and a pathway to citizenship for approximately 8 million immigrants from four categories: so-called “Dreamers,” those with Temporary Protected Status, farm workers, and essential workers.
But that plan ran into a wall over the weekend after two moderate Democratic senators — Joe Manchin (W.Va.) and Kyrsten Sinema (Ariz.) — signaled they might block the spending package.

Then, on Sunday, Senate Parliamentarian Elizabeth MacDonough dealt another blow to President Biden and his Democratic counterparts in determining that the immigration reforms could not be considered within a budget reconciliation because they would amount to “by any standard a broad, new immigration policy.”
“The policy changes of this proposal far outweigh the budgetary impact scored to it and it is not appropriate for inclusion in reconciliation,” MacDonough concluded. What else? In the backdrop of all this, the U.S. economy continues to grapple with a labor shortage amid its slow recovery from COVID-19 pandemic […]

Will America-First News Outlets Make it to 2023?
Things are looking grim for conservative and populist news sites.
There’s something happening behind the scenes at several popular conservative news outlets. 2021 was bad, but 2022 is proving to be disastrous for news sites that aren’t “playing ball” with the corporate media narrative. It’s being said that advertisers are cracking down, forcing some of the biggest ad networks like Google and Yahoo to pull their inventory from conservative outlets. This has had two major effects. First, it has cooled most conservative outlets from discussing “taboo” topics like Pandemic Panic Theater, voter fraud, or The Great Reset. Second, it has isolated those ad networks that aren’t playing ball.
Certain topics are anathema for most ad networks. Speaking out against vaccines or vaccine mandates is a certain path to being demonetized. Highlighting voter fraud in the 2020 and future elections is another instant advertising death penalty. Throw in truthful stories about climate change hysteria, Critical Race Theory, and the border crisis and it’s easy to understand how difficult it is for America-First news outlets to spread the facts, share conservative opinions, and still pay the bills.
Without naming names, I have been told of several news outlets who have been forced to either consolidate with larger organizations or who have backed down on covering certain topics out of fear of being “canceled” by the ad networks. I get it. This is a business for many of us and it’s not very profitable. Those of us who do this for a living are often barely squeaking by, so loss of additional revenue can often mean being forced to make cuts. That means not being able to cover the topics properly. Its a Catch-22: Tell the truth and lose the money necessary to keep telling the truth, or avoid the truth and make enough money to survive. Those who have chosen survival simply aren’t able to spread the truth properly.
We will never avoid the truth. The Lord will provide if it is His will. Our job is simply to share the facts, spread the Gospel, and educate as many Americans as possible while exposing the forces of evil.
To those who have the means, we ask that you please donate. We have options available now, but there is no telling when those options will cancel us. We have our GivingFuel page. There have been many who have been canceled by PayPal, but for now it’s still an option. Your generosity is what keeps these sites running and allows us to get the truth to the masses. We’ve had great success in growing but we know we can do more with your assistance.
Thank you, and God Bless!
