I don't care if he's Muslim, Hindu, agnostic, Jewish, Catholic or has other religious beliefs. Religion has no place in our government including as mayor of NYC. Just do the best job you can do for ALL people, regardless of religion. They're all FOS anyway.

Is it a good thing when MTG compliments you? Maybe she'll retire next? It's clear that she has lost what little mind she had to begin with.

Not thrilling I agree, but given what's in DC he looks like a rock star. Better than the other alternatives.

An ICE agent, who is being arrested for drunk driving and nearly killing his little kids & others, tries to stop the arrest by racially profiling the officers arresting him. Amazing to watch the courtesy given to him as he is belligerent and uncooperative
