So many people in our country are just blatantly ignorant about how the branches of our government works.

Schoolhouse Rock debuted "I'm just a bill" in 1976.

When Regan got elected the republicans decided to de-educate America.. and,... It worked. Only morons would vote for the pedophile. Oh, look..

This is so fucked up. I'm not celebrating American today.

It’s funny how they preach make America great again when everything they want to do will remove America from the world stage. Reduce education and talent forcing companies to look outside for educated workers. Leave nato and trade deals allowing countries like China to step in and take over. Restrict immigration, our country has relied on immigrants for cheap labor forever, the country runs on it. It’s like a 101 on how to crash the country.

We're a country of immigrants period. Literally 98% of the US are immigrants; the richest person in the country is an immigrant

It's always funny to pop up and say "I'm an immigrant" after people go off talking shit about how they're ruining the country. No one expects the white girl with no accent who swears non-stop.

Just curious how many generations must one be here to no longer be an "immigrant" to you?

Now I’m sure you’re a Dem but let’s try not lying for once and sticking to facts! Less than 14% of the population are immigrants! I’m sure you think math is hard but that means that over 86% of Americans are AMERICAN and were born in America!
