1. They are so disgusting.

They hate minorities, immigrants, woman, children, the poor, and everyone who isn't in their clique. It is really sick that they have so much power.

[Ohiogal]

2. I have thought the same thing many times, malaise

They want to make sure the hateful policies linger on past their deaths.

It’s is beyond disgusting

[ancianita]

3. They're not worth noticing. They're dead souls. Ghosts of American history.

[Hermit-The-Prog]

4. It's 'Party uber alles!' combined with 'I got mine. Piss on you.'

Twisted human beings.

[lunatica]

5. Maybe they're positioning themselves to be martyrs for the cause of

Decrepit Old Whiteness. Heroes to the end!



Let’s hope they remember to insert their teeth for their patriotic portraits.

Trump administration expands travel ban

The White House placed restrictions on immigration from half a dozen additional countries, including Nigeria, one of the most populous countries in Africa.

Updated: 01/31/2020 05:07 PM EST

President Donald Trump is expanding his controversial travel ban, placing immigration restrictions on half a dozen new countries, including Nigeria, the most populous country in Africa.

The latest iteration of the ban will suspend immigrant visas for citizens from four countries — Nigeria, Myanmar (also known as Burma), Eritrea and Kyrgyzstan — without barring all citizens from those countries from entering the United States. It will also bar people from Sudan and Tanzania from the U.S. diversity visa program, which awards green cards to immigrants. The new order, which Trump signed Friday afternoon, will go into effect on Feb. 22.

The officials said each country on the updated list displays an “unwillingness or inability” to adhere to “baseline” security criteria. They cited insufficient information sharing from the countries’ governments about criminal and terrorism data, a lack of electronic passport systems and issues with Interpol reporting methods.

The move will inevitably exacerbate tensions over Trump's divisive immigration policies just as the president's campaign schedule begins to pick up ahead of November’s election. Already, critics were quick to resurface Trump's prior slandering of African nations as "shithole" countries, and his specific comments, reported by The New York Times, that Nigerians who come to the U.S. will never “go back to their huts."

34. We were on our morning walk recently when

one of the grumpy old men was complaining about the young men's hairstyles. I told him he was a grumpy old man who was only attacking the youth because his hair was gone and asked him if he remembered when he had a massive Afro and his father sounded just like him. He called me later to say that I was right.

I did laugh.

[Harker]
