Immigration is the only issue Trump won on in the polls. Even among Hispanics, those who said immigration policy is crucial were more likely to vote R than those who didn't. I can guarantee you that the average winnable voter doesn't care about Stephen Miller.

According to the Times Irans health ministry has confirmed handing out Iodine tablets.
Unlike other states, where local communities directly benefit from the tax revenue created by a data center, under West Virginia’s law, half of a project’s revenue would go to reducing and “ultimately eliminating” the state’s personal income tax.
A lot of voters aren’t likely paying attention, but more and more people just don’t care about controversial statements anymore. Jay Jones, Talarico, her. The black Nazi did lose in NC though.
🚨#BREAKING: NC Democrat Shelly Headen who said that Trump supporters belong in CONCENTRATION CAMPS...
...WON HER NC HOUSE RACE YESTERDAY!!!!!
She also wished for: "an attack on US soil... preferably Alabama, Louisiana... where the stupid people live."
WHAT?!!!!!!!!!
What are the chances of minimum wage being raised in Texas? That could absolutely screw over the immigrant population.
"The analysis shows that when the state minimum wage rises 10%, there is an 8% reduction in the number of low-skilled immigrants, a combined effect of lower immigrant inflows, higher return migration, and internal redistribution of migrants across states"

Maybe not
🚨TEXAS RESULTS🚨Republicans retained their Texas Senate supermajority despite Democratic victories statewide and in the Texas House. The GOP-controlled Senate could block House legislation and reject Gina Hinojosa’s appointments. Expect legislative gridlock.

To undermine socialists, Bismarck, ironically, preemptively implemented some social welfare reforms. That playbook could be something to think about for Republicans. Especially those running in places like Virginia and other blue leaning states.
Winsome Sears did better than Mizusawa
My final predictions for Virginia:
US Senate
🔵Mark Warner 59.57%
🔴Bert Mizusawa - 40.43%
🔵Warner by 19.14
VA-1
🔵Shannon Taylor - 52.29%
🔴Rob Wittman - 47.71%
🔵Taylor by 4.58
VA-2
🔵Elaine Luria - 55.55%
🔴Jen Kiggans - 44.44%
🔵Luria by 11.11
VA-5
🔴John McGuire - 50.54%
🔵Tom Perriello - 49.46%
🔴McGuire by 1.08
Note: These are two-party percentages only. Some of these races feature independents or third-party candidates that will inevitably peel away a point or so.

Texas turned blue because of the war, gas prices, the rising cost of living, and immigration.
By contrast, California has some of the highest gas prices, one of the highest costs of living, uncontrolled immigration and when Obama went to war in Syria, it never turned red.
This kind of disparity in voter behavior will doom America.
Hernan Cortes was born into a “poor but honorable” Hidalgo family. Pizarro, Alvarado were also born poor. When the Conquistadors went to the Americas they were going to make something of themselves or die trying. No matter the risk or cost. A very inspiring mindset.
