Has anybody requested the SORN for this database? It is a requirement of the Privacy act. Not that I would expect there to be one given that ICE doesn't follow any other federal laws.

America's strongest Ally and friend since its founding would be France, or possibly the UK If you start from the founding of Ireal.

However, the US relationship with Israel is much like Lindsey's with Trump. Lindsey serves and helps Trump while getting little to no loyalty or help in return.

It's like ICE is googling "racist things police have done" and are using the results as suggestions.

ICE: Hey, the "jump outs" cops do to black teenagers sounds like something we should try!

Pointing out that they got what they voted for is victim blaming? You have a strange definition of victim.

You chose to sit out knowing that this would be the likely result. That was your choice and the current world is the consequence of that choice.

You aren't a victim if you chose this.

What about a book where daughters get their father drunk so he can impregnate them? Or a book where a voyeur watches a women bathe, starts an affair with her and then arranges to have her husband killed? You know, the bible?

I really don't see what's wrong with a two penguins raising a baby.

There is simply no way these ships will ever get built. The lead time for ship design and building is too long to survive this presidency or the congressional annoyance of the inevitable cost overruns. But Donny is just trying to make headlines. He has no intention of following through with this.

Denmark should appoint an envoy to the Florida Keys with a goal of making it part of Denmark.

I see details of things being described, but not when the story moves on to the larger picture. I can see embroidery on a dress, but that will disappear when the book describes the rest of the dress or the person wearing it. I will see features of a face, but not the entire face.

For me it's mostly vague and abstract with just the focus of the story being visualized (there is no background scenery, it's like a stage show with minimal props). I never visualize clear faces or detailed clothing, no matter how specifically they are described.
