Who released a very early draft that was going nowhere

How did AP go from an early draft by a low level employee to "Trump Admin considers"
AP knew exactly that it was nothing But the bell won't be unrung
And leftists and snowflakes will fan the fears of illegals
What despicable people.
 
Illegals get to deduct children living in Mexico, or wherever? That is absurd.
 
Not if you think like a left wing globalist. Borders are irrelevant.

LOL U.S. borders are irrelevant you mean. The left conveniently ignores that every other country would immediately detain any American if they snuck in without authorization and parked it on foreign soil.
 
Here is the kicker,. Since most illegals do not actually pay taxes what they do is get EITC money from us for children not living here.
IIRC the Atlanta IRS office discovered over a million in EITC sent to one address but several names and there were no children at the address

Let me try to clarify.

Illegals apply for an ITIN in order to file a tax return. You cannot claim EITC when filing an ITIN, but prior to the PATH Act passed last year, you could claim the additional child tax credit. Illegals can no longer claim this credit when filing tax returns.

Prior to last year, a typical ITIN return might look like this. The filer might file head of household and list four or five dependent children, also with ITINs. The adjusted gross income on the return is typically somewhere in the teens or twenty thousands dollar range. After exemptions, the taxable income is frequently zero, but the unused child tax credit ($1,000 per child) could be claimed as a refundable credit called the additional child tax credit.

Let's say the AGI was $25,000 and the return filed head of household with four dependent children. After the standard deduction and exemptions, the taxable income is zero. The unused portion of the child tax credit would be $4,000.00. The filer would receive a refund of any withholding tax plus up to $4,000.00. It is very possible none of the four claimed dependents resided in the US at the time the return was filed, but no way to verify. So in actuality, the filer did pay social security and medicare taxes (payroll taxes) which would amount to about $1,700 or so, but received $4,000 courtesy of the US taxpayer. My experience is that the majority of ITIN returns filed looked similar to this.

Now that the Path Act has been implemented, they are out of luck. However, once they are granted a social security number, the additional child tax credit and the EITC credit becomes available.
 
University of Southern California forced students to scrap a talk by Dave Rubin, who is a free speech proponent

Now they're crossing into dangerous territory. Rubin is openly a self-proclaimed Liberal and very level-headed in his stances. These radical Libs are quickly becoming the most effective recruiting tool the Reps have these days.

I was watching him a month or two ago, saying he was dumping liberals, since they no longer represent traditional liberalism (including but not limited to free speech)
But he did not commit to where he was going
 
Trump is going to re-issue the Visa ban today

One funny twist from all of immigration stuff is the number of stories popping up about how the law of supply and demand will now start working again once immigrants cross the border back into Mexico

These same people were never willing to make that application to the effect on US labor/wage market from illegal immigration

I loved this part too...

"Her group has backed legislation to speed up the process, which President Enrique Peña Nieto recently endorsed. But Anderson also noted the resistance here to doing too much to accommodate a population of returning compatriots who rub many the wrong way with their English and their more aggressive American manner.

It really interrupts the economic and social norms of Mexico,” she said. “They speak English, and they’re asking for access to higher education and to employment in ways that their parents were not able to.”

holy crap...you mean the Mexican people resent it when people use something other than the mother tongue, and they resent it when people make demands on their system.
 
Hard to believe this is true, but kinda funny if it is
The original tweet for this was re-tweeted over 11,000 times (probably more by now) yet with no confirmation or direct sourcing

So, that mayor in Vermont (Chris Louras) who fought for Syrian refugee resettlement was defeated tonight by a resettlement skeptic (David Allaire).

Go figure
 
I liked the part where after Ramos crowed that America would not be majority white Tucker pointed out Ramos was whiter than Tucker is
