    I dunno -- have you considered the Supreme Court? I hear they are advertising.

    A) Did you never go to a Tea Party or Trump rally? B) How about the Lock Her Up chants? And C) Who produces them? Their is no actual organization called “The Left.” There was, however Tea Party America and the Trump Campaign.

    The left has gone too far with their targeted harassment of staffers. “Wanted” posters do not suggest speech, regardless of what’s in the fine print - they’re a blatant call to action.

    Trump Administration report shows refugees added $63 billion to US economy over the past decade. Trump White House then killed the report they ordered and demanded it be manipulated to only show costs and not profits.

    "We cannot forget the lessons of internment as our national leaders callously dehumanize migrants for, in Trump’s words, “infesting” America. We must do better. We owe it to Alice."

    "Trump responded to intense public criticism by ending his official policy of family separation. But don’t be fooled- the inhumane treatment of children & families won’t be solved by this executive order. There is no plan to reunite children already separated from their parents."

    "Alice spent months living with her sisters in a horse stall at the Santa Anita racetrack. The famous racehorse Seabiscuit, Alice pointedly recalls, had two stall spaces at Santa Anita, while she and her sisters shared just one for nearly 10 months."

    "Alice & her 18-year-old sister were at school when her parents were arrested; they came home to find them gone. Alice still recalls the trauma of that day, marked by the sharp awareness that she didn’t even get to say goodbye to her mother & father before they were taken away."

    Actually, I am visiting Austria and everyone I speak to is not laughing at the US they are laughing at you.

    ....Our Immigration policy, laughed at all over the world, is very unfair to all of those people who have gone through the system legally and are waiting on line for years! Immigration must be based on merit - we need people who will help to Make America Great Again!

    I also have a rule. If a President seems to be dirty, he should SHOW US HIS TAX RETURNS AND PROVE HE IS NOT.

    The Red Hen Restaurant should focus more on cleaning its filthy canopies, doors and windows (badly needs a paint job) rather than refusing to serve a fine person like Sarah Huckabee Sanders. I always had a rule, if a restaurant is dirty on the outside, it is dirty on the inside!
