Trump plans to rehire Tom Homan, father of family separation policy
Homan presided over unprecedented ‘zero tolerance’ family separation program that severed thousands of migrant families, in some cases permanently
www.the-independent.com
Under the initiative, immigration officials broke with the longstanding practice of keeping migrant families together and out of detention, instead sending parents to immigration court for removal proceedings and children to the care of a separate agency. Immigration offenses are considered civil violations, not criminal ones, and many of the families first presented as asylum-seekers, but they were soon on the fast track out of the country.
The practice separated at least 5,000 families, many permanently, as parents were sent abroad and the Trump administration initially declined to keep track of where they ended up. As of this May, an estimated 1,400 families remained apart.
Coming from you a meaningless and ironic statement i think.
It's racist to be against Hamas and Hezbollah organisations who wish to reap death and destruction on us?
What sick and twisted people some of you are.
I do feel sorry for the family (the mum/grandmother). Imagine finding out you'd raised a kid to be a Trump supporter, not just a private voter but someone who proudly says to the world they think it was 'the right thing to do' etc. You'd probably be wondering just where you went wrong as a parent that they turned out like that.

He did he was replaced by his black friend in the latest captain America movie ))
He actually did over Nixon!
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nomad_(Marvel_Comics)
The original Nomad is an alternate identity that Steve Rogers adopts after he abandons the Captain America costume and title.
In Captain America #180 (December 1974) Rogers becomes disillusioned with the United States government, when he discovers that a high ranking government official (heavily hinted to be the then President of the United States Richard Nixon) is the leader of the terrorist organization known as the Secret Empire.
Rogers then decides to abandon his Captain America identity, feeling that he cannot continue to serve America after this latest discovery has shattered his faith in the nation's status. However, a confrontation with Hawkeye (disguised as the Golden Archer) forces Rogers to realize that he cannot abandon a life of heroism, and he subsequently takes on the name "Nomad" (as it means "man without a country") adopting a new dark blue and yellow uniform with no patriotic markings on it at all.
This identity is short-lived, with Rogers maintaining it for a mere four issues of the comic to varying degrees of success; he even trips over his own cape at one point. At the conclusion of Captain America #184 (April 1975) Rogers returns to the role of Captain America when he realizes that he could champion America's ideals without blindly supporting its government.
Hear hear!
Off topic I guess, but if anybody wants more analysis of Captain America and the politics behind it then I could go get my wife and she will write a very long winded essay for you all. She did her Masters thesis on comics and the use of propaganda in them, focusing on Captain America and the cold war. I had it explained to me once, most of it went over my head.

Cool thing that from you're missus.
Got a shed load of old marvel comics in storage at my cousin's house back in Liverpool, dating back to the 70s-80s, no chance I'll ever ship them over really, sad they'll end up one day on the scrapheap
My sister in law ( English ) has been lived in LA for over twenty years and brought four kids up there.
Her daughter is gay and one of her three sons is gay too.
Her two straight sons both went to University in Texas and are Trump supporters through and through, where as both of her gay kids are Democrats.
She raised them all properly and didn`t try to influence them one way or another politically ( she`s a Democrat, as is her second husband ).
However both of the lads that went to Uni in Texas, where all but radicalised during their time there and became dyed in the wool Trump supporters.
Have a look online mate, there`s a big market for stuff like this ( as long as it`s mint )

Have you watched The Boys ?
The Homelander character, couldn`t be more like Donald Trump if they tried !
It appears, at least to me that the trump ideal is a simplistic one. 'Who's gonna pay? (someone else) Mexico!', 'We're gonna build a wall', 'It's gonna be a great deal, the best!', 'we're gonna fix immigration/industry/interests overseas/energy/jobs/education', 'we're gonna make america great again!'.
It's perfect, there's no substance and no metric of success, there's nothing to catch him out with because there's nothing there.
Ordinary people just don't care, they don't have the time nor the inclination to delve into every intricacy of whatever todays issue/problem is, and the easy answer is perfectly grasped. There's homeless people? Simply buy a home! fixed. There's jobless people? here? in america? the land of opportunity? Try harder! fixed. There's war overseas? eff em! I'm alright Jack. Out of sight out of mind. fixed. Another school shooting? arm the kids, more guns is the answer! fixed.
The overwhelming urge for the quickest and the stupidest and the easiest answer is the new opium of the masses. I don't care because it's not affecting me. (See also the environment). Anyone affected probably deserved it, because they're losers. Gimme easy, gimme brash, gimme politically incorrect and lets make it the standard. Inclusivity? Understanding? Not for me! All a load of tree hugging hippy woke crap! Someone else can deal with it, it's trivial and tedious.
Great swathes of the voting public have switched off, it's to much like hard work, 'they're all the same' manifest, nothing changes 'I just get poorer'. This feeling en masse is dangerous, we've seen nations mobilized from such stagnant positions before. War is brilliant if you win, and you live.
