Declining migration and the resulting wage gains are bad because they create “affordability” problems, Democrat Rep. Tom Suozzi (NY) told News Nation on Tuesday. “We have to expand the Affordability Agenda beyond just health insurance,” said Suozzi, adding: We have to look at all the different factors, even the immigration policy, where we have a million and a half less [migrant] people in the workforce right now, it’s causing more overtime and having to hire people at higher wages. These are all upward pressure[s] on people’s prices. Suozzi is being touted by establishment media outlets as a leading moderate in…

My wife Rocky and I started our business in a double-wide trailer. We worked hard, saved, and eventually bought a home. That’s the American story. Work hard, build something, and own a piece of the dream. But that dream is slipping through the fingers of a generation. Last week, President Trump announced he’s moving to ban large institutional investors from buying single-family homes. He’s right.

That’s why I introduced the Families First Housing Act with Congressman…

Tuesday on ABC’s “The View,” co-host Joy Behar said President Donald Trump wanted to declare martial law so he could “cancel the midterms.” Behar said, “My favorite part about this is Trump is worried about protesters in Iran. He’s ready to go and take on the government of Iran to protect the protesters in Iran, but not in this country. That is a first. What happened to that?” She continued, “Who is following him anymore? Who likes him? Who are you? How much more does he have to do?” Co-host Alyssa Farah Griffin said, “This a tinderbox situation. Because, listen,…
