Does an American citizen have freedom of speech to urge an illegal alien to violate immigration law? The Supreme Court takes up a 1st Amendment case of a Evelyn Sineneng-Smith who urged unqualified immigrants to stay in the United States as part of a fraudulent business she ran, duping clients out of thousands of dollars with false promises. Should open-borders Progressives and Democrats have a protected free speech right to verbally induce people to break the law?
New immigration rules from the Trump administration would deny green cards to more people under an existing law designed to keep an immigrant from becoming a “public charge”. Critics say this proves that President Trump is not merely anti-illegal immigration, but anti-immigrant (and likely racist).

Did the president jeopardize the effectiveness of the Immigration and Customs Enforcement round up by alerting illegal aliens, perhaps risking the lives of federal agents?
Progressives sue to stop Trump administration from asking about citizenship in 2020 Census. Should the Supreme Court stop the government from causing an “undercount” as some immigrants dodge the national survey to avoid scrutiny.
Beto O’Rourke officially launches his 2020 presidential campaign with lofty speech designed to unite Americans. But Bill Whittle says Beto’s policies ignore real problems, and hurt the people he pretends to love — immigrants and the poor. Will “the man from the border” pose a threat to President Trump, who threatens to close the border?
President Donald Trump declares a national emergency to stop what he calls an armed invasion. Democrats, and more than 13 states attorneys general, say it’s unconstitutional. How else can Trump get what he promised the American people?
Former NBC News anchor Tom Brokaw sparks a Twitter storm when he says Latinos should try more to assimilate. Brokaw apologizes with multiple Tweets to quell outrage from Progressives. Bill Whittle shows what happens when Leftist speech codes boomerang on their makers.
