On Wednesday, Legal Insurrection posted an article with an explanation as to why the Democrat party is so against deporting people who are here illegally.
The article reports:
In a recent interview with Fox News, former ICE Acting Director Jonathan Fahey said that “Democrats fight each deportation as if it’s a Democratic vote.” Rarely have truer words been uttered.
The American Redistricting Project, a nonprofit group focused on “constitutional redistricting, and election transparency,” published its 2030 Apportionment Forecast on Tuesday — and what it revealed was remarkable.
Based on the Census Bureau’s July 1, 2025, population estimate — released Tuesday morning — the ARP apportionment map shows California losing four congressional seats. Illinois, Minnesota, New York, Oregon, Pennsylvania, Rhode Island, and Wisconsin would each lose one seat, for a total of 11 seats lost among blue states.
Meanwhile, the map shows red and purple states gaining those same 11 seats. Texas would pick up four new districts, Florida would gain two, and Arizona, Georgia, Idaho, North Carolina, and Utah would each gain one.
…Independent journalist Greg Price attached the ARP map to a post on X and noted:
Under this forecast, President Trump would have won the 2024 Electoral College 322-216. And even if Kamala had won PA, WI, and MI — President Trump still would have won 280-258.
This [is] the one and only reason Democrats are fighting so hard to stop illegals from being deported.
Their ability to continue winning elections is at stake without them and they’ll burn down the country to keep them here.
The average America does not share the goals of today’s Democrat party. A large number of Americans share the values of yesterday’s Democrat party. Many of the values of yesterday’s Democrat party have become the values of today’s Republican party–support the working man, equality (not equity), etc. President Kennedy lowered taxes, saying, “A rising tide lifts all boats.” I can’t picture a Democrat saying that today, and I doubt that JFK would be welcome in today’s Democrat party.
The article concludes:
Perhaps Americans also looking for some sanity and honesty from their public servants.
If I were a Minnesota resident right now, I’d be strongly considering selling my home — and it’s hard to believe many others aren’t doing the same.
State and local leaders are currently locked in a desperate fight with the federal government to stop them from deporting illegal aliens — even those who have committed serious crimes. Although any reasonable person would celebrate the removal of criminals from their city or state, Democrats in Minnesota, as well as the outside agitators who have converged upon the state in the last month, are fighting tooth and nail to keep them there.
Why? Because Jonathan Fahey was right when he said, “Democrats fight each deportation as if it’s a Democratic vote.” Because, at least in the blue states that don’t require photo identification at the ballot box, that’s a true statement.
