Welcome to the discussion of US Politics!
Rules:
- Post only links to articles, Title must fairly describe link contents. If your title differs from the site’s, it should only be to add context or be more descriptive. Do not post entire articles in the body or in the comments.
Links must be to the original source, not an aggregator like Google Amp, MSN, or Yahoo.
Example:
- Articles must be relevant to politics. Links must be to quality and original content. Articles should be worth reading. Clickbait, stub articles, and rehosted or stolen content are not allowed. Check your source for Reliability and Bias here.
- Be civil, No violations of TOS. It’s OK to say the subject of an article is behaving like a (pejorative, pejorative). It’s NOT OK to say another USER is (pejorative). Strong language is fine, just not directed at other members. Engage in good-faith and with respect! This includes accusing another user of being a bot or paid actor. Trolling is uncivil and is grounds for removal and/or a community ban.
- No memes, trolling, or low-effort comments. Reposts, misinformation, off-topic, trolling, or offensive. Similarly, if you see posts along these lines, do not engage. Report them, block them, and live a happier life than they do. We see too many slapfights that boil down to "Mom! He's bugging me!" and "I'm not touching you!" Going forward, slapfights will result in removed comments and temp bans to cool off.
- Vote based on comment quality, not agreement. This community aims to foster discussion; please reward people for putting effort into articulating their viewpoint, even if you disagree with it.
- No hate speech, slurs, celebrating death, advocating violence, or abusive language. This will result in a ban. Usernames containing racist, or inappropriate slurs will be banned without warning
We ask that the users report any comment or post that violate the rules, to use critical thinking when reading, posting or commenting. Users that post off-topic spam, advocate violence, have multiple comments or posts removed, weaponize reports or violate the code of conduct will be banned.
All posts and comments will be reviewed on a case-by-case basis. This means that some content that violates the rules may be allowed, while other content that does not violate the rules may be removed. The moderators retain the right to remove any content and ban users.
That's all the rules!

You need to provide better sources. Your first source is highly suspect, and the only source I can find that remotely support your numbers is the Heritage Foundation , who have a long track record of outright lying to scare conservatives (and it’s still far lower than 10% of the Cuban population, which would be nearly 2 million, but the total number of applicants – not all of whom were accepted – since 2020 is roughly 500,000).
Your final link is a TikTok? Holy shit.
What is suspect and please don’t use modified numbers, I can’t tell if your a troll or real but the Biden Admin has redefined every encounter to downward revise all numbers, its to the point that if you dont come thru Eagle Pass you do not count to anything. You call my source funny and then lie, Cuba has 10 m, how is 10% 2m? And again I provided sources you hated on and had nothing more than trust me bro my bs ignorant math rocks. Btw the tiktok hate, did you even review my source or just talk smack immediately?
Look, it’s become obvious your sources are biased and you won’t consider anything I say, so this is a pointless conversation. I’m done wasting my time and energy sourcing my comments with real data and being met with unsourced right-wing propaganda or TikToks.
If you want to actually have your views matter in future elections I’d still strongly recommend you look into FairVote Action rather than getting angry at people online.
I Am not angry, I have literally addressed all your requests. You are not gonna make me to the be the ignorant one when you clearly only hear what you want. Like thats why you keep trying to discredit everything I say for no reason, it tells me what you about.
You may feel you have addressed my questions, but you haven’t, and your assertions haven’t held up well thus far.
I really recommend you step back and look at your views with a critical eye – forget anything I or anyone else has said, and really look at who you are without preconceptions or bias. That’s not very easy to do, but you seem the type who could do it.
I’m done for now. I’d be interested to talk with you after you’ve done this, cheers.
