If the GOP takes the Senate in November, Jeff Sessions for Majority Leader
Hear, hear! Sessions actually seems to know something about political tactics and strategy (and what commenter “eric” would call “the activist game”). Which is more than I can say for most of the GOP. And although I’m not all that … Continue reading →
What is the opposite of “legal immigrants”?
