Trump is banning fact-checkers--yes, those people who do the research to learn the truth--from entering the USA.

When Trump says he supports free speech, what he means is supports his right to lie. Those who tell the truth are therefore his natural enemies.

Our demented leader is freaking the f*ck out.
So Trump claimed he bombed ISIS in Nigeria-on Christmas Day, no less-because they were slaughtering Christians

An assertion which was refuted by officials in the region

Yet starting on January 1, he will suspend issuing any visas to Nigerian citizens-leaving them vulnerable to future attacks

Cruel with the added bonus of being criminal.
Last week, ICE arrested and separated a father and son after a routine check-in. Six-year-old Yuanxin had just enrolled in the first grade at an elementary school in Astoria. Now he's in custody, alone. ICE won't say where. This cruelty serves no one. It must end.
