About
Florida Governor Ron DeSantis aspires to be the same kind of Autocrat despised by the founders of the United States. He must be exposed for what he is: a great threat to our Democratic Republic and American values. Republicans don't punish big businesses like the Walt Disney Company for disagreeing with them. Fascists do. DeSantis and those like him are a massive threat to our Democracy.

MODERATORS
In 2020, about 8% of Minnesotans were foreign-born
Page includes a chart: IMMIGRANT GROUPSORT DESCENDING POPULATION
All immigrants 470,387
Burmese immigrants 12,480
Canadian immigrants 11,179
Chinese immigrants 17,746
Ecuadorian immigrants 6,703
Ethiopian immigrants 22,453
Filipino immigrants 9,936
German immigrants 6,811
Guatemalan immigrants 6,619
Hmong immigrants 29,034
I did not include the whole chart.
I am only pushing back on the implication about the immigrants in Minnesota being only Hmong. I have no idea about literacy in any of those countries.
Oh wow, I didn't realize there are so many other groups. I wonder why some of them choose Minnesota of all places. I know why the Hmong are there, but Minnesota seems like an odd match for some of those other groups. At least it's a new life experience and a change of scenery!
