Filmed at the University of Illinois, this documentary argues that the number of Chinese nationals allowed to attend American schools should be zero. We examine how American taxpayers are subsidizing the education of CCP elites while American students are left behind. It’s time to reform our universities and put American young people first. Watch to the end, share your thoughts in the comments, and tell me: Should Chinese nationals tied to the CCP be allowed to study in American universities at all? Make sure to like this video if you think American universities need serious reform. #CortesInvestigates #americanuniversities #chinesestudents #educationpolicy #highereducation #nationalsecurity

I’m standing in Pacific Palisades, California — and it looks like a war zone. But this wasn’t a war. It was a totally preventable fire. More than a year later, there is still a shocking failure to rebuild. Burned-out lots, destroyed homes, and one of the most beautiful landscapes on earth — overlooking the Pacific Ocean — left in ruins. This is Gavin Newsom’s failure. Instead of fast‑tracking rebuilding for fire‑victim homeowners, this iconic coastal community remains devastated and abandoned. If this is what Gavin Newsom has done to California, imagine what he would do to America if he got his wish to become president of the United States. In this short, I highlight: • Pacific Palisades still looking like a war zone • A totally preventable fire and slow, broken recovery • Gavin Newsom’s failure to rebuild one of the world’s most special places • Why this is a warning for the entire country if he runs for president Watch to see what Newsom’s leadership really looks like on the ground. #CortesInvestigates #PacificPalisades #GavinNewsom #California #Wildfire #RebuildFailure #NewsomFailed #CaliforniaDisaster #Politics #Shorts

One Year Later: Pacific Palisades Remains in Ruins Under Newsom #News #California #Disaster

Patriots, look at this. Behind Steve Cortes is a massive construction site in California – an ultra‑luxury high‑rise hotel with hundreds of workers on the job. Proof that when powerful interests want something built, construction in Gavin Newsom’s California can move FAST. Now compare that to Pacific Palisades and Altadena. Those wildfire‑devastated communities should be the busiest construction sites in America. Instead, they still look like war zones. Homeowners can’t get traction, can’t get rebuilds started, and can’t get action from the state – all while luxury projects race ahead. This video exposes Newsom’s real priorities: • Rapid construction for big business and luxury development • Delays, red tape, and neglect for fire victims and homeowners Before we let Gavin Newsom “fail upward” into the White House, ask yourself: Who does he actually work for? #CortesInvestigates #GavinNewsom #PacificPalisades #Altadena #CaliforniaPolitics #WildfireRebuild #NewsomFailed #Construction #GovernmentFailure #Shorts

Why Does This Get Built Instantly But Not Homes for Fire Victims #california #construction

The United States now offers generous incentives to self‑deport: cash, a paid flight home, and the ability to reapply legally in the future. But there’s a catch—if you refuse this second‑chance generosity, you face removal. In Wisconsin, this policy is sitting at +24% net approval. Among Hispanic voters, support is nearly three to one in favor. That means one thing: When you pair generous, legal options to “do the right thing” with clear, predictable enforcement consequences… it’s actually very popular. In this short, we break down: • How self‑deportation incentives work (cash + flight + legal reentry path) • Why voters in Wisconsin back the policy by a wide margin • Why Hispanic support is almost 3:1 in favor • What this says about immigration enforcement and public opinion If you care about immigration, border security, and real‑world polling data, this is the kind of policy detail you need to see. #CortesInvestigates #Immigration #BorderSecurity #SelfDeportation #ImmigrationPolicy #Deportation #IllegalImmigration #PublicOpinion #Politics #Shorts
