"So, with Christmas approaching, the president, or one of the elves in the darker reaches of his workshop, came up with a plan
to cut the number of refugees admitted to the United States to a record
low of 18,000. This despite the fact that most refugees have been
thoroughly vetted and offer considerable promise to society. A number of
communities welcome them and set them on the path to productive
citizenship. This latest needless and probably self-destructive action,
like many the president has taken, is the reality behind the mirthless
jollity of his 'Merry Christmas.'” -- from today's Washington Post editorial, "The true meaning of Christmas."

Trump has denigrated every element of democracy and the very foundations of this country. WE ARE A NATION OF IMMIGRANTS!!!
ReplyDeleteHis family were immigrants, his wife is an immigrant, Stephen Miller's family were immigrants. All of this purist, nationalistic bullshit is wrong on so many levels.
As always, this sorry sack of human waste is using hate, bigotry, and racism to define our government. Soon it will no longer be a democracy. I cannot wait to be rid of this entire administration.
