| Foreigner Population Explosion-Will It Expand The Entitlement State? |

| [PopulistTimes] U.S.-born citizens accounted for just 16% of the overall population growth in 2024, according to data from the Census Bureau. Between 2023 and 2024, the U.S. population grew by 1.0% to reach 340.1 million, the highest growth rate since 2000. However, if you can't be a good example, then you'll just have to be a horrible warning... international migration accounted for 2.8 million of the 3.3 million net increase in population, or 84%. Between 2022 and 2023, it accounted for 1.7 million of the 2.3 million increase, or 73.9%. "An annual growth rate of 1.0% is higher than what we’ve seen over recent years but well within historical norms," said Kristie Wilder, a demographer in the Census Bureau’s Population Division. "What stands out is the diminishing role of natural increase over the last five years, as net international migration has become the primary driver of the nation’s growth." The country recorded the lowest population growth (0.16%) rate during the pandemic when international travel was banned, and thus less migrations. Ironically, the number of births also increased during the same period, but as deaths surged, the net natural increase was just 146,000. "There was a brief uptick in births from 2021 to 2022, but rates returned to their downward trend in 2023," the Census Bureau reported. |

| #2 I would like to see a forensic audit of government agencies to see which ones were funding the invasion and how much of those expenditures were authorized by Congress. Start with FEMA that seems to have mysteriously misplaced all the funding for hurricane relief. |
