"Your Wife Is Indian": Internet Slams US Politician Over Anti-Migration CommentsMany users were quick to point out that Mr Gill is married to Danielle D'Souza, daughter of prominent conservative commentator Dinesh D'Souza, who is of Indian descent.

Representative Brandon Gill, a Republican serving Texas's 26th Congressional District, has sparked widespread controversy following a viral social media post where he criticised mass migration. The post, which has drawn significant backlash from users across platforms, featured a side-by-side comparison of California in the 1960s versus the present day, with the implication that immigration is responsible for what Mr Gill perceives as the state's decline.

"California in 1960 vs California today. Mass migration has made America unrecognisable," Mr Gill wrote on X while sharing two images. The first image depicted a serene 1960s beach scene with blonde-haired sunbathers, while another showed a dramatic moment from the LA riots, with a man waving a Mexican flag amidst flames.

2. How about LA 1830? They are so sure that we are defending "illegals" because they will vote Democratic

But I guess being raised in an environment of closed mindedness, or something, when they believe something there’s no way to change their minds. They just believe it. That is one of their cult brain’s, beliefs. Of course it doesn’t make sense because Texas and Florida have large undocumented immigrant populations and they always go red.

6. California was a part of Mexicon in 1830. The guy is just another magat moron.

7. Yes, so we white people were the ones that actually changed the demographics

It’s hard to believe how terrified some of these white men are of waking up one day and being in the minority

8. I wonder if these people would agree.

Among Earliest Photos of Arapahos
Taken by James Dempsey Hutton during William F. Raynolds’s 1859 expedition of the Yellowstone region, this photograph of Arapahos (including Warshinun, on the right) is among the early images that triggered the photographic trend to capture views of frontier Indians in the 19th and early 20th centuries.

I hope it’s ok to post this. The point being most of us are children of immigrants.

11. I certainly am.

My mother came over from England in 1948 and my paternal grandfather's family
came from Denmark in the late 1880s.

9. People are still surfing and enjoying the beach today

10. Vance apologized to his white supremacists that his wife is not white.
