J.D. Vance, the venture capitalist-turned Republican Ohio U.S. Senator, ignited a firestorm when declared support for the deportation of what he claims are 20 million undocumented people in the United States. Senator Vance came to power thanks in large part to tech billionaire Peter Thiel bankrolling his campaign.Gay porno Vance’s book, which alleges to speak for the forgotten people in middle America had become a best-seller, while also being criticizedas “an example of poverty porn designed to appeal to the same type of (white) viewer who may believe they understand ‘urban poverty’ because they watched HBO’s ‘The Wire.’ ” An anonymous Twitter account with a bio that literally says, “Just here to collect liberal tears,” over the weekend had posted: “I’m so sick of this administration. I’m 23 years old. I’m ready to buy a house and start putting my roots down, but I have to stick to renting because the house market is ridiculous. Vote for the convicted felon. This shit is getting old.” READ MORE: Republicans in 10 States Have Now Used Courts to Block Biden’s LGBTQ Student Protections Former journalist James Surowiecki, author of the book, “The Wisdom of Crowds,” responded: “How will Trump’s policies make it easier for this guy to buy a house? He has no answer. (Literally – I asked.) It’s just ‘Mortgage rates were low under Trump, and they’re higher under Biden, therefore Trump will bring mortgage rates down.’ It’s magical thinking.” That’s when Senator Vance, a top contender on Trump’s vice presidential running mate short list, decided to ride the wave of anti-immigrant hate that has fueled the ex-president’s campaigns. “Not having 20 million illegal aliens who need to be housed (often at public expense) will absolutely make housing more affordable for American citizens,” Vance a multi-millionaire according to Forbes, claimed to great criticism. “But I see the left’s strategy of making fun of people for suffering under Biden policies continues apace.” Housing, including mortgage rates, while high in the U.S. are far higher in other developed nations thanks in large part to the coronavirus pandemic. The U.S. economy is the best in the world right now – number one, according to The Wall Street Journal in April. Vance was quickly scorched: “You are so full of shit. 20 million people being rounded, put in camps, and deported will break the economy,” declared former Lincoln Project executive director Fred Wellman. “You also act like it will be free to do this. How many billions will be spent to build the fascist ‘deportation force?’ Camps? Flights? What does any of that have to do with interest rates and housing costs? You are a liar and a propagandist. It’s pathetic how someone who was once a Marine is such a morally bankrupt loser now.” READ MORE: Whoopi Goldberg Mocks ‘Crook’ Trump for ‘Black Church’ Trip Immigration advocate Thomas Kennedy wrote: “A U.S. Senator is advocating for a mass deportation program so that homes of immigrants can be seized and redistributed. Also the 20 million figure isn’t even accurate. Just a terrible person.” “This is a dumbass bumper-sticker slogan answer and his own angry hallucination, all showing that the intellect gap between the nutjobs and those considered the GOP’s most sage and sophisticated thinkers is much more narrow that you’ve been led to believe,” responded Los Angeles Tribune investigative reporter Joe Rossi. “People should take a moment to imagine the amount of terror, violence, expense and destruction that is going to be necessary to deport TWENTY MILLION people. And also, think the won’t just mess up and grab a whole bunch of American citizens while they’re at it?” observed MSNBC host Chris Hayes. “Let’s deport all the people who build the houses and find out what happens to housing prices. Great plan!” mocked Robby Soave, senior editor of the Libertarian magazine Reason. “Hitler also carried out mass deportations to create more living space for the Volksgemeinschaft,” reminded journalist Aaron Rupar. American Immigration Council Policy Director Aaron Reichlin-Melnick weighed in: “Setting aside that there aren’t 20 million undocumented immigrants (actual number is 12-15 million, depending on if you count new arrivals facing removal proceedings in the number), it’s pretty dark to say the US should seize and redistribute millions of peoples’ homes.” Talking Points Memo publisher Josh Marshall served up this take: READ MORE: Democrats Have One Way to Correct Corruption of Justices Thomas and Alito: Expert So do we.

The Real Housewives of Atlanta was destined for greatness with Porsha Williams and Kenya Moore at the helm. However, things took a turn during filming, and Moore walked away early on after being accused of revenge porn against new star Brittany Eady. Before the official cast of RHOA was announced earlier this year, rumors circulated that former star Phaedra Parks could be in line for a comeback.Gay porno Her impressive stints on Married to Medicine and The Traitors meant many fans wanted it to happen. With the cast locked in, it seemed like there was no way forward for Phaedra to stage a comeback during the upcoming season. However, Moore’s exit seemingly blew the door open for a comeback. Lovebscott recently claimed that Phaedra was negotiating her return but the sticking point was her contract to Married to Medicine. Porsha wants Phaedra to return to #RHOA! pic.twitter.com/V2kp0brqf1 Porsha took to Instagram Live to address the rumors and believes “there’s enough of Phaedra to go around.” The returning star thinks that the show’s fans could be the turning point in negotiations, helping to make it a done deal. “We are working… I’m working… I really want Phaedra to find her way back home,” she told her followers. Phaedra joined RHOA during Season 3 and departed after Season 9 before taking an extended hiatus from the small screen. “I need y’all to go and write Bravo and let them know that we want Phaedra to come and play,” she said before listing off just how busy her former co-star is now. “Why not come and get this bag over here, sis? Right?” Porsha concludes. Bringing Phaedra back would likely generate a lot of excitement because she has endless fans who would tune in to see whether the show was good. A post shared by PHAEDRA (@phaedraparks) However, Phaedra’s contract with Married to Medicine could throw a wrench into things. The reality series is midway through filming its 11th season, so bringing her over to RHOA while filming the fellow Bravo series would probably confuse viewers. The only feasible way to make this work is for Phaedra to walk away from her current show and return to RHOA, but again, would Married to Medicine producers want to lose one of its biggest stars? Although Phaedra appeared in only one season, she made quite the impression, so producers would want to keep her around. There’s no telling what the future holds for RHOA, but the series could use Phaedra to help steer it in the right direction. The Real Housewives of Atlanta is currently on hiatus. Season 16 is expected to premiere in 2025. Stream Seasons 1-15 on Peacock. Δ Δ
