Americans most oppose migration because of its damaging impact on housing and jobs for Americans, says a new Gallup poll. The June 1-5 survey of Americans showed that “Americans are more likely to see negative than positive effects on job opportunities for U.S.-born workers (33% vs. 27%, respectively) and housing availability and costs (40% vs. 23%).” In contrast, and aided by the lopsidedly pro-migration views shared by roughly 90 percent of Democrats, the Gallup poll also reported majority support for the use of migrants as cheap labor or supposedly high-skilled migrants: Majorities say legal immigration has a very or somewhat…
Actor Patrick Dempsey, famous for his role as Dr. Derek Shepherd on Grey’s Anatomy, announced he has no plans to run for political office, preferring to help people through his charity work.

They are not good actors.” Later, she said, “President Trump also seems to have a very deliberate strategy of saying positive things one day and then negative things the next day.

On Wednesday’s broadcast of CNN’s “OutFront,” Maine Secretary of State Shenna Bellows responded to President Donald Trump saying that earlier allegations against Graham Platner were ignored by saying that Trump “has no right to weigh in on this race, and we will defeat him in November.” Bellows said, “I think we need to take a beat and remember that this is about Jenny Racicot and these serious allegations of sexual assault. Survivors of sexual assault need to be heard and respected, and that is why Graham Platner must withdraw.” Host Erin Burnett then said, “President Trump was just asked, Secretary,…
