If you're a Democrat there is no political upside to coming out publicly for Khalil.

I had read somewhere that Khalil has some diplomatic experience and possible connections to the UK. I'm wondering if the U.S. politicians know something about him that the rest of us don't.

In South Texas you should see how the "established" Hispanic community treats the "new arrivals". It's horrific. I have been told the folks who can trace their family back three or four generations don't see themselves as Hispanic at this point. Joke's on them, they're still "Mexican" to Trump.

If he really means that, then Punxsutawney Trump has just forecast another four years of recession.

I don't think he does it for deterence. I believe he's thinking in terms of a bullet shield. Did you ever see that movie New Jack City and the shootout scene at the wedding?

This is the part that comes to my head every time I see him with that kid (Watch Wesley Snipes 35 seconds in): https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SSDVsG3dciU&ab_channel=VeeXXL

Headline is a tad ambitious. This action is procedural in nature and does not / will not address the merits of the case. The Trump admin is asking the Supreme Court to strike down the three national injunctions and limit the scope of the birthright orders to only apply to citizens in the states where it was granted.

What did we hear from Trumpers last year, that he was the candidate for peace or some such shit?

He senses it coming too, hence the reason for wearing his son like a kevlar helmet.

A nice long winding drive down the PCH seems just the ticket.....

I've been reading a little about this concept and can't see how it would work in reality. Sure, the Feds could "set aside" some land for one of these assholes to set up a new city. But that area would still be under the concurrent jurisdiction of a state and county. And not even the Feds can exempt a city from a state's regulatory environment. In fact most of the things these billionaires are trying to get away from (labor laws, building codes, etc) are state regulations in the first place.

Frankly no billionaire is going to want to live in the middle of South Dakota, no matter how "free" it supposedly is.
