Never. It’s a distraction strategy. He needed to draw our attention away from the unpopular budget. Can’t miss with cages and Biden.

We are a more multicultural pluralistic society than decades ago.

Just trying to save folks from blaming US air traffic controllers when it’s a Canadian airport.

Also, the Great Lakes region will be one of the last livable places on Earth.

Funding religious organizations to provide social programs instead of the government was the new model adopted under Bush and Republican leadership.
