put $20 billion towards solving homelessness.
And so just pick an issue that the left proclaims they care about, in the case of California, homelessness, that $20 billion disappears.
Of course, it goes to various constituent groups and a lot of NGOs that receive money to solve homelessness.
We actually found that
And by the way, homelessness is a lot of the money dedicated towards homelessness has been redeployed towards illegal migrants and facilitating the resettlement of migrants because, you know, they don't have homes when they come here.
And so true homeless people in America, American homeless, are getting sort of, you know, their funds, the funds that should be helping them, getting them rehabilitated or
off of drugs or whatever the case may be, that's being redeployed to bringing more migrants in.
So that's certainly the case in California, $20 billion, not a whole lot to show for it, except for a bunch of resettled migrants.
And California is a great example of this border to ballot box, because even if the migrants don't end up on voter rolls yet, eventually they do, legally or illegally,
through the process of apportionment in the census, because the census, they don't have a box for whether you're a citizen or not.
There are 10 million, 20 million maybe non-citizens living in California who through the apportionment, that leads to more political power in the form of more
representatives in Congress.
And so some estimates a dozen more.
There are members of Congress, representatives who would not be representatives if the non-citizens weren't counted.
So that certainly helps a state like California out big time.
What have you guys uncovered there?
Yeah, in Maine, it's kind of the same case as Minnesota.
It's a large Somali community there.
They're kind of, you know, my colleague Peter Schweitzer, I mean, he found in his book, I mean, there's a lot of places all over the world, Islamic places, that decide...
you know, it's sort of part of, you know, it's a jizya, it's a tax on the non-believers to exploit welfare systems.
