Looks like I picked the wrong week to stop sniffing glue.
25+ years as a soccer coach. Retired from journalism/Motley Fool career. 3 kids in college, 3 rescue dogs, 1 wife, 0 Fs left to give. I already miss democracy.

oh hey look it’s the thing literally everyone said would happen
Two months after President Donald Trump signed an executive order restricting H-1B visas, soaring costs are roiling rural health care facilities that have long struggled to find staff.
Rural America relies on foreign doctors. Trump’s visa fee shuts them out.
The Trump administration’s demand for companies to pay a $100,000 fee to hire an immigrant worker using an H1B visa has created turmoil among rural health providers.

It’s important to remember there are two scandals here:
1. The Administration has likely committed war crimes.
2. But the entire operation - which now includes two dozen attacks - is illegal. In our democracy, the President CANNOT wage war without the consent of the people.

BERMAN: Did you see any evidence of them trying to use a radio in the video you saw?
TOM COTTON: Well I saw lots of evidence of them standing on the boat that had been capsized
BERMAN: That wasn't my question. Did you see any evidence?

There are so many holes in DHS’s story it’s nuts. They say this woman was driving her boyfriend’s car, who they claim is undocumented.
ICE pulls her over, see she’s alone, know they are looking for a man, and still handcuff her while she screams “I am a US citizen,”.
Why is ICE harassing women?
