If they're boys: "the military is for suckers and losers, son; you want to be a real patriot, join ICE and kill some liberals."

If they're girls: "you have no control over your body and you better get comfortable with the kitchen."

5/OLC next says “What does define the President's authority to order ABSOLUTE RESOLVE is the Constitution”

But leaves out the President’s constitutional duty to “take Care that the Laws be faithfully executed”

And ignores that the UN Charter is binding on the Pres as the “supreme Law of the Land”

The article says immigration agents took this kid's phone.

And then the phone showed up for sale at a vending machine near an ICE facility?

Did ICE agents STEAL and SELL this kid's PHONE?

This obviously isn't the worst of what's described in the article. But it tells you something.

If our authorities exist for the protection of the people, then the laws should exist for the protection of the people, not the protection of authorities. If the law exists for the protection of authorities, then the authorities do not exist for the protection of the people.

Mayor Young and the Chamber of Commerce seemed excited to have Memphis known as “the home of Mechahitler,” so I suppose they’ll be thrilled at this development, too.
