Douglas Andrews began part-time editing for The Patriot Post more than two decades ago, working primarily with Mark Alexander. He joined our editorial team full-time as a writer and analyst in 2020. As a former Marine with 30 years of research and writing experience, he long ago proved himself as an outstanding news and policy analyst.

The Minnesota fraud scandal shows how the Democrats use illegal immigration to enrich their coffers and fraudulently increase their congressional representation.
