Stephen Miller said the quiet part out loud. Trump has “plenary authority,” then suddenly went silent. Their plan wasn’t to be public yet. Clearly, someone hit the panic button in his earpiece.

This is all so horrific. This guy is legally here and has been for 25 years. But it seems he may have been caught once, over 4 years ago, driving without a license. Now, he is detained in prison indefinitely waiting to find out if he will be deported. He has a 17 year old soon who is terrified.

It's one thing to succumb to the stick, but Vanderbilt, Dartmouth, Penn, USC, MIT, UT, Arizona, Brown, and UVA absolutely must refuse to go chasing after promises of carrots.

Truly alarming!! Squirrels are determined little things. That said, it does bring to mind the Monty Python scene with the rabbits?

Do miniature factories count?

This may explain why there’s an aggressive response to people who merely post Kirk’s own words. It threatens the existence of the alternate Kirk - the motivational speaker that had been marketed to young kids and white Christian groups through selective quotation & clips.

It does!! I get the “no-mess” kind

It used to be that, but where our seats are it sounds like “eff Tech” as far as I can tell

Healthcare facilities are now closing in the Shenandoah Valley.

Other rural Virginia sites will follow.

Trump's massive raid on the Hyundai plant in Georgia is huge news all around the world. But in the US it's barely even reported, much less discussed and explained. Something fundamentally wrong with US media.
