Dear Mr Farage, you stated during the Brexit campaign that we, bloody forrins, were responsible for traffic jams on British roads.

As it happens, I mostly work from home but you're against this now.

So, what do you prefer, me working from home, and being "less productive" or causing jams?

Trump nominated a legit white nationalist to a top post at the State Department. I asked him some basic questions about his belief in the “erasure of white culture”. Watch this embarrassing, fumbling answer. Like he has never before been asked to explain his views.

NEW: Acting ICE Director Todd Lyons told Congress today that local law enforcement in Colorado leaked word of a raid, allowing gang members to clear out of apartments.

Those apartments were being cleared out weeks earlier.

Tonight, ICE deleted social media posts with the claim.

Nearly slept 7 hours last night but after 2 nights of very poor sleep, my body is telling me to go to bed.
No such luck.

But Mr Farage, if I was forced to work from the office, I would have had to take 3 days off this week.

Would this make me more productive?

- herpes simplex virus causes cold sores, genital herpes, infections in babies, deadly meningitis
- shingles virus causes an intensely painful disease

Today, the Trump administration repealed the endangerment finding: the ruling that served as the basis for limits on tailpipe emissions and power plant rules. Without it, we’ll be less safe, less healthy and less able to fight climate change—all so the fossil fuel industry can make even more money.

In Switzerland there’s no right of sol so even if you’re born in Switzerland you don’t have the right of Swiss nationality…so their economy will continue to rest on second class citizens without rights (gasterarbeiters) and tax evasion…that’s a pretty glorious economic model (not)

According to multiple NYT sources, it wasn’t even military personnel at Fort Bliss that fired an anti-drone laser at alleged cartel drones. It was CBP who used the weapon on loan from DoD against a child’s party balloon they mistook for a drone. The Pentagon gave CBP an anti-aircraft weapon.
