A dictator took out a dictator. While this is initially a good thing for Venezuelans, it is naive to think that it was done for them or for some kind of war on drugs. It was only done for U.S. interests, namely the resource that the U.S. can't seem to get enough of: oil.

People mistake appearances for reality because they have never been taught otherwise. When they encounter truth, it wounds before it enlightens. And those who return to challenge comforting illusions are rarely welcomed.

Reading comments about Nicki Minaj’s legal status makes one thing clear: many Americans don’t have a clue about the difference between permanent residency & citizenship. They assume it's all the same. It isn’t & the U.S. immigration system is far more restrictive and impossible than most realize.

Always loved this quote. Oddly, the first time I heard it, it was out of Billie Joe Armstrong's lips.

It is quite the contradiction, but I desperately want to keep the life we've built here in the U.S., and at the same time, I want out of it.

I didn’t realize how deeply the current immigration climate had affected me until I noticed myself reacting with fear to ordinary things while simply driving down the road - like seeing black Tahoes or white Explorers driving behind me.
