By Caroline Boda | Just the News (The Center Square) - The foreign-born population in the United States shrunk this year for the first time since the 1960s, according to new data from the nonpartisan Pew Research Center.

On Sunday, for instance, in the opening paragraph of a story meant to evoke pathos for the “victims” of last week’s Immigration and Customs Enforcement raid on the Glenn Valley Foods meat packing plant in Omaha, Nebraska, which netted 76 illegal immigrants, NBC News inadvertently undermined the leftist establishment’s entire immigration narrative. “Every seat in the waiting area of Glenn Valley Foods was occupied with people filling out job applicati...
