You’re Fired!

It’s a Friday News Dump Day, what did you expect? Health and Human Services Secretary Tom Price is pushed off the sinking ship, supposedly because of his $1 Million private jet tab (to be fair he offered to pay for $50,000 out of his own pocket) but in fact because of the failure to deliver …

Let’s get it straight about who “Dreamers” are. They’re people who were born outside the U.S. who were brought here while they were minors in violation of U.S. immigration laws.
