In America, even with a valid study visa, you can be picked up off the street at random and detained by homeland security (if you’re a Muslim that co-writes something that the government doesn’t agree with).

Land of the free? Whoever told you that is your enemy.

This is Soviet level shit.

The reality is, the govt failed to release the impact assessment with Kendall’s reform announcements because they wanted the reality of 250k people (including 50k kids) falling into poverty to be buried.

Forcing worried people to wait another week to know the truth.

Disgraceful.

So, which is it?

If this info wasn’t classified, that in itself would be a scandalous screw-up that must be explained.

And if it was classified, then the Trump administration lied to Congress and to the American people.

"But Hillary's emails!" I had to DIG to find any mention of this on the Fox News website. In related news, I want to bleach my eyeballs.

The lives of American troops - and every American life - depends on the people in charge of our government taking their responsibilities seriously. But again and again, including with the incompetence that came to light today, they are demonstrating the opposite.

BP are cancelling their investment and strategic drive into renewables, returning to a core Oil & Gas focus.

We're all going to end up living on a chaotic, half-dead planet because these old white cunts want a 0.1% higher dividend.

Murderous cunts.

I personally will continue to use "Gulf of Mexico" because our president is a wrathful felonious nincompoop with the intellect of paramecium and I do not consent to his cartographic buffoonery
Encyclopædia Britannica will continue to use ‘Gulf of Mexico’ for a few reasons:

-We serve an international audience, a majority of which is outside the U.S.

-The Gulf of Mexico is an international body of water, and the U.S.’s authority to rename it is ambiguous.

The emergency services, teachers and railway workers are my priority. Not a handful of multi millionaire landowner farmers threatening our food supply because they don’t want to pay a bit more tax, which is still less tax than most of us. Not making any money? Shouldn’t have voted leave then.

"Trump is acting like a king because he is too weak to govern like a president. He is trying to substitute perception for reality. He is hoping that perception then becomes reality. That can only happen if we believe him."

Look closely at the first two weeks of Donald Trump’s second term and you’ll see something very different than what he wants you to see.
