<\/a>Top Republican tells anyone who criticizes America to get out<\/p>\n

A top House Republican<\/a> has a stark message for anyone who criticizes America: \u201cYou can go to Europe.\u201d<\/p>\n

Representative Lisa McClain of Michigan<\/a>, who serves as the House Republican Conference chair, raved about the rights afforded by the American democratic system, and then told people who favor communism to get out in an interview with Newsmax Thursday.<\/p>\n

\u201cThe Constitution is the envy of the world. People risk their lives to come to America because of what we have \u2014 capitalism. We have a democracy. We have freedom of speech. We have love of country,\u201d she said on the National Report.<\/p>\n

\u201cFor the people in our country, who want to turn this country into a communist country. Leave. You\u2019re free to leave. The beauty about America is, you can leave!\u201d McClain said. \u201cGo to Europe where they\u2019re experiencing this heat wave and they don\u2019t have any air condition[ing]. See how well that works for you.\u201d<\/p>\n

<\/a>Trump loses again after appeals court orders ICE to hold bond hearings for deportees<\/p>\n

A panel of judges on a notorious conservative federal appeals court has ruled that people in Immigration and Customs Enforcement<\/a> detention must be granted a bond hearing before a judge within 90 days of their arrest.<\/p>\n

The ruling<\/a> marks at least the fourth such federal court order striking down a chief component of the administration\u2019s attempts to swiftly detain and deport tens of thousands of people<\/a> from the country before they\u2019ve had their day in court, which civil rights groups and immigration lawyers have called stark violations of due process rights.<\/p>\n

<\/a>Trump slams communism <\/p>\n

Trump hit a recent familiar refrain as he blasted communists, who he says include illegal migrants and people who don\u2019t want to work. \u200b<\/p>\n

\u201cAmerica will never be a communist country,\u201d Trump said. \u201cWe can only lose the midterm if we allow ourselves to the midterms.\u201d\u200b<\/p>\n

The president\u2019s speech started off by highlighting America, but he is now speaking on several of his common topics in recent weeks. He blasted communists – something he has said since progressives won several recent primary elections. He also spoke of passing his voting -rights act. <\/p>\n

\u201cOn the eve of this 250th anniversary of American history, we resolve and swear for all to hear to vanquish communism quickly,\u201d Trump said. <\/p>\n
