Wednesday, FNC host Tucker Carlson dissected the new Biden administration’s approach to immigration policy and why it might be offering low estimates on the number of illegal immigrants within the country. The “Tucker Carlson Tonight” host speculated a process was underway by the White House to import as many Democratic voters as possible. Transcript as follows: CARLSON: Have you ever noticed how nobody in Washington can agree on a number? Now math is supposed to be objective except in Oregon where it is racist. But in the real world, you would think that people with functioning calculators could come to similar math-based conclusions once in a while, but not in D.C. Try getting a consensus on unemployment projections or consumer confidence levels from Members of Congress. You can’t even get a straight answer on how many troops will be occupying the Capitol three months from now and that’s something they directly control. Even allowing for the fact that most politicians … [Read more...] about Carlson: Point of Biden Immigration Policy ‘Is to Import as Many New Democratic Voters as Possible and There’s No Limit’

Anymore, the Carmelo Anthony trade lives on the periphery. There are still scattered boos at the Pepsi Center when he touches the ball. There remains scant buzz when he is introduced to the crowd. But he’s not a huge draw in Denver, no longer a must see — even if it is just to come to the game to boo. A sparse audience Tuesday night confirmed that. It has been five years since Anthony forced his way out of Denver. The Nuggets beat his team in Denver, 110-94, but such an outcome has been par for the course since he left.

So much has changed. In the Nuggets organization, the trade is hardly ever brought up. Coach Michael Malone wasn’t here for it. General manager Tim Connelly wasn’t here. Only one of the players involved in the trade was even on the court Tuesday night — the centerpiece, … [Read more...] about Carmelo Anthony’s return to Denver doesn’t burn as before; Nuggets beat Knicks

The Colorado legislature is primed to pass a bill to provide in-state tuition at public colleges and universities to American Indian students whose tribes have ties to this state, even if those students don’t live here. Lawmakers, higher education officials and some Indigenous leaders have hailed this as an overdue step toward undoing historical injustice against Indigenous people. Yet Brett Chapman, a civil rights attorney and member of the Pawnee Nation of Oklahoma, isn’t impressed. The bill doesn’t go far enough, he says, and if Colorado really wanted to do something with impact, it would provide free tuition for these students. “It’s just really performative,” Chapman says. “The only thing they’re giving them is the ability to pay tuition same as the white people whose ancestors ran off … [Read more...] about The Spot: Why popular ideas don’t always become law, Twitter’s hold on the 3rd Congressional District and Juneteenth
