You all remember Jerry Nadler, right? Nadler is the Manhattan, New York\u00a0 Congressman who went whole-hog on the Trump impeachment (he was one of the\u00a0 co-leaders.) Sadly, though his district was redrawn, he won re-election in ’22 and is still around to represent what is supposedly one of the most “diverse” districts in Congress. If Dirty Harry talked bad about them, Nadler wants their vote, right?<\/p>\n
So it sounded odd, and a little more than a bit condescending, when Nadler sounded off about the need for more immigrants. For diversity? Nope. Indeed, to keep the “We need immigrants in this country,” Nadler said. “Forget the fact that our vegetables would rot in the ground if they weren’t being picked by many immigrants \u2014 many illegal immigrants.<\/p>\n “The fact is the birth rate in this country is way below replacement level, which means our population is going to start shrinking,” he added. “And the ratio of people on Social Security and Medicare is going to increase relative to the number of people supporting them.”<\/p><\/blockquote>\n DAMN all you Baby Boomers who haven’t got the grace to die off. (Oh, by the way, he was born in ’47.)<\/p>\n Nadler is not the only Democrat who has made this argument. In 2022, California Rep. Nancy Pelosi said farmers need illegal immigrants “to pick the crops” in Florida. Last year, Florida Rep. Debbie Wasserman Schultz said vegetables in her state would start “rotting” due to an anti-illegal immigrant law.\u00a0\u00a0 Fox News<\/a><\/p><\/blockquote>\n The rumor that the Democrat Party is adopting a new theme song is unconfirmed, although the lyrics “Jump down, turn around, pick a bail of cotton” have been heard at a few Massa Joe caucuses, I’m told.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"cotton<\/del> veggies picked.<\/p>\n
