#1 Freshman Dem proposes bill to remove Statue of Liberty in protest of GOP's 'bigoted' immigration law

"A House Oversight and Accountability Committee hearing on immigration discussed H.R.2, the House GOP’s Secure the Border Act, the comprehensive border security and immigration bill passed back in May. The bill would restrict the asylum process for people crossing the border and require resumed construction on the border wall.

The freshman congressman was one of many Democrats who attacked the bill, though he also produced a mock bill to remove the Statue of Liberty for Republicans to also pass."

#4 Frost is a "democrat rising star." Given how they all seem to implode, whoever is in charge of gathering background for the Florda Pubs should watch him closely.

#6 I've looked him up in wikipedia (to me, an African American who doesn't understand what latino immigration means for African Americans is a curious thing). Turns out he was raised as an Hispanic.

#10 The statue, a gift from France, should stay, but the plaque mounted inside the pedestal's lower level upon which is cast the poem "The New Colossus" should, for obvious reasons per history linked and below, be removed and melted down, right?

Tokens of history, rendered as 'false' iconography, cause the facts to fade and the truth of the times becomes one of the rendering generations favorite puddings.
