    There is a difference between doing that when you come across it and creating an office for the sole purpose of looking for it, especially givin this administrations open hostility towards any immigrant. ICE tries to deport people for belonging to fictional gangs, and I get the feeling that this new office will try to strip citizenship based on fraud it created itself.

    That's fine. I think people are just expressing their opinion that said power won't be being used honestly or evenhandedly.

    Well, considering most "problems" you guys with her were hypocritical at best, completely bullshit at worst, I have no choice but to draw my own conclusions.

    Is it retroactive and does it impact the descendants of people who lied to get in? Meaning where exactly did your family immigrate from Mets? Maybe we should look into their paperwork.

    You know, just in case.

    1. I voted for her do clearly my problems with her weren’t significant enough to sway much for me.
    2. Just because you happen to disagree with other people’s grievances doesn’t mean they are invalid or a deflection for mysogny. That’s just a straw man cop out. There’s plenty of reasons to dislike her politics.

    Former Trump lawyer Michael Cohen likely to cooperate with federal prosecutors in New York as his attorneys leave case

    Cohen, now with no legal representation, is likely to cooperate with federal prosecutors in New York, sources said. This development, which is believed to be imminent, will likely hit the White House, family members, staffers and counsels hard.

    Vanity Fair described a source close to Cohen as saying Cohen had told he friends he "expects to be arrested any day now."

    According to the NYTimes, Cohen “will seek new legal counsel. The issue is primarily over payment of the legal bills of one of his lawyers.”

    How can you be so corrupt and still not be rich? They even suck at being corrupt!

    He actually used “diverse” to describe a single person? If so, I’d agree that’s something of a red flag.

    Ah yes, another version of the argument that the 19th century versions of the two parties are exactly the same as the 21st century versions, completely ignoring how the two parties completely switched sides in the mid 20th century. Theodore Roosevelt would not recognize today's Republican Party and Woodrow Wilson would not recognize today's Democratic Party.

    Been a while, but let's check in on a terrible human being, Steve King.

    Rep. Steve King (R-Iowa) retweeted a British neo-Nazi on Tuesday, the latest in a series of incidents in which the congressman has parroted or promoted the views of unabashed white supremacists and other bigots.

    “Europe is waking up... Will America... in time?” King tweeted, linking to an anti-immigrant tweet from political activist Mark Collett.

    Collett is one of Britain’s most high-profile white supremacists. He has expressed admiration for Adolf Hitler and has called himself a “Nazi sympathizer.”

    King’s office did not respond to multiple requests for comment Tuesday as to whether he condones the views of neo-Nazis, whether he’s concerned his views align with those of neo-Nazis or whether a U.S. congressman should be amplifying a neo-Nazi on Twitter.

    King’s office also did not respond when asked if the congressman considers himself a white nationalist.

    The tweet, posted early Tuesday morning, hasn’t been deleted.

    Not to mention that Trump and his wife took advantage of "chain migration" to get her parents over here, which Trump and Sessions want to eliminate. That stuff is a bad! except when the Trumps did it.

    I'd love to be a fly on the wall in the Oval Office when Mount St. Trump erupts.

    Reading that, I've arrived at the following conclusion: King is a Nazi lover.
