so that ice agent had a lifelong dream to get into that line of work because he liked the “air of authority”, and after his marriage broke down he gets together with someone who used to pretend that immigration police were coming for other kids in her neighbourhood so she could see them panic and flee. sounds like a real pair of winners here.

quote:In his early years as an officer, an English-speaking teenager walked up to him on the bridge from the Mexican side. Quiet and alert, the kid was not unlike Rodriguez had been at that age, except for his lack of papers. He admitted that he’d been living illegally in the U.S. most of his life; he needed to return to continue high school. Rodriguez asked why he had risked a trip to Mexico if he knew he wouldn’t be allowed back into the U.S. The boy explained that his grandmother had died and he’d gone to pay his respects before she was buried. “I wanted to see her one last time,” he said. Rodriguez told him his best hope for returning was to one day marry a U.S. citizen. But for now, Rodriguez had little doubt about the rules. He sent the teen back to Mexico. what a loving piece of poo poo

BrutalistMcDonalds posted:https://twitter.com/theintercept/status/1229115192484802561 hmmm quote:In “Sexual Consent and the Adolescent Male, or What Can We Learn From the Greeks,” Hubbard portrays pederasty in unfailingly glowing terms and suggests that it be a model for thinking about current ages of consent. He believes that the U.S. should bring its laws more in line with teens’ actual sexual activity and with most other countries, where the age of sexual consent generally ranges from 14 to 16 (in Texas, it is 17). He proposes that boys be free to express their “natural and powerful sexual urges,” including with older partners. Yet — just as he neglects to place pederasty in the context of a slave-holding, woman-subjugating society — he dismisses feminist “preoccupation” with legal gender neutrality as “quaint” and says girls need to be “protected” until 17 or 18, because they are “easily pressured” and might get pregnant. hmmmmmmmmmm

"i don't pay my taxes so this freeloader can get food stamps!" - me a non-white. even when he is being denied his services he still has to pull the "i'm being unfairly treated due to being white and male" and not because his turd of a president voted to remove him from foodstamps. every god drat time, these chuds hear "christian" but forgetting the silent part that precedes it, "white" who knew the racist guy would do racist things and not care? and the fact that some people will still vote for him... lol why would trump care at all?

It's always amusing that when white people confront the reality of the welfare system - how threadbare and meager and unreliable it is - after spending their whole lives believing that being on welfare is essentially a paid permanent luxury vacation for Those People. Rather than realizing that they've been lied to their entire lives, they shift to believing that there's a second, hidden, secret welfare system just for Those People that they are being denied access to, and it makes them vote for Republicans even harder.

THE BIGGEST FAN OF TRUMP’S STEEL TARIFFS IS SUING OVER THEM John Hritz, president and chief executive officer of JSW Steel USA Inc., put on a big smile and a Texas flag pin for his television spot on Fox Business in March 2018. “It’s a special day,” he told his host, then told her again: “It’s a special day.” JSW Steel’s India-based parent company, JSW Group, had announced it would invest $500 million and create 500 jobs at its steel mill in Baytown, Texas. “We’re going to make history,” Hritz said. ... “We are following right down the road where the administration wants things to go … to completely overhaul the steel industry in this country.” But the revolution has been delayed by a bureaucratic morass at the U.S. Department of Commerce and, possibly, political weight thrown around by two of steel’s heaviest heavies: United States Steel Corp. and Nucor Corp. ... JSW’s waiver requests faced objections from Nucor, U.S. Steel, and AK Steel. JSW’s Washington lobbyists at the Vogel Group repeatedly met with Commerce officials to point out that the objectors couldn’t possibly meet the company’s needs. In April and May, the department nevertheless issued two batches of almost identical denials, saying U.S. companies produced the slab JSW needed in “a sufficient and reasonably available amount” of “satisfactory quality.” JSW has now paid about $50 million in tariffs. ... On July 25, Hritz and a Mingo Junction worker joined a large group that gathered with Trump at the White House to mark the anniversary of a pledge for U.S. businesses to create more jobs. Hritz praised Trump’s “bold leadership on tax reform, a smart regulatory agenda, and investing in American workers.” Five days later, JSW sued the administration in the U.S. Court of International Trade.

I am kinda surprised their waivers were turned down. That chud has a point, if the point if the steel tariffs were to help steel mills why sit by and watch them all get hosed. As far as I can tell that doesn't benefit Trump in any way.
