In the cultural mecca that is Central Arkansas, a Benton AK cop arrested an Indian immigrant b/c he possessed a bottle of Yves St Laurent Opium perfume. The cop thought it was real opium. 🙄🤡🤷‍♂️ Now the guy is being deported.

I cannot in good conscience make any excuses for the harboring of jihadis.
This is where I draw the line.”

They get the ability to have sleeper agents in the USA to kill Qatar's enemies here.

That's bullshit.
