"White House: Tariff price hikes are possible, but so is a meteor strike"

That makes no sense, #POTUS. We all know that China pays the tariffs, so why would prices be hiked for Americans? China! Meteors! Bears! Battlestar Galactica!

Hey @cnn.com, check your definitions. You cannot "deport" a US-citizen. Where do you deport them to? Back to the US?

"Deporting" a US-citizen is legally classified as illegal expulsion. In CIA terms, during combat and clandestine operations, it's also "rendition."
