in a surprising turn of events, trump did strip federal grants from sanctuary cities

An executive order that President Trump is expected to sign shortly restricts visits and immigration from seven Muslim-majority countries: Iraq, Libya, Somalia, Sudan, Syria, Yemen, and Iran.

The draft text of the order was leaked to the Huffington Post and Los Angeles Times. Titled “Protecting the Nation from Terrorist Attacks by Foreign Nationals,” it would suspend the issuance of visas for an indefinite period of time to most people in the seven countries while the administration revamps its vetting procedures. Most citizens of foreign countries must first obtain a visa before being allowed to enter the United States.

“In order to protect Americans, we must ensure that those admitted to this country do not bear hostile attitudes toward our country and its founding principles,” the draft reads, justifying this blanket prohibition.

The draft relies on Division O, Title II, Section 203 of the 2016 Consolidated Appropriations Act, which lays out security-related exemptions to the visa waiver program, to derive that list of seven countries. In the 2016 law, Iraq and Syria are explicitly listed, Iran and Sudan are included as state sponsors of terrorism, and Libya, Somalia, and Yemen are in the “area of concern” as designated by the Department of Homeland Security.

how many attacks have even been carried out by foreign nationals in the country on a temporary visa? discounting 9/11, though they were saudi so this measure wouldn't have even stopped them

Communism will help more white people than anyone else. Any equal measures unfairly provide less to minority populations just because there's less of them. Democracy is truly the tyranny of the mob.

They run Rem (and to a lesser extent, Singal) which makes them pretty good in my book... minus the whole part where Chait gets to run the place.

He's good for the whiniest whiteboy meltdowns whenever he tries to do anything outside of his wheelhouse (dunking on faux intellectual republican economists and columnists), and as such is the self-styled leading crusader against PC Liberalism. Accurately summed up with:
