    “Idaho senator born in another state tells Native American congressional candidate from a tribe native to the state to “go back where you came from.”

    It would have been a much wordier headline but relays a lot more pertinent information.

        An ideology of “I won’t listen to you because I’m motivated to oppress everyone else for my own gain,” is, most definitely, going to make the world worse. And this will be entirely on purpose, and no one will apologise.

        It isn’t, but to be fair, it absolutely does add an additional layer of irony that they weren’t even born there.

      That’s not the irony.

      The irony is people flying the flag of violent traitors who fought a bloody war against this country while screaming that anybody who doesn’t like it here should get out.

      We desperately needed to let them leave back then, the country would be so much better.
