The Department of Homeland Security on Monday told staff that it was reversing guidance issued last week that agents were not to conduct immigration raids at farms, hotels and restaurants — a decision that stood at odds with President Donald Trump’s calls for mass deportations of anyone without legal status.

1. tRump was gotten to, and I think Stephen Miller did it.

2. I am curious if Miller and the ICE industrial complex have gone rogue.

The actions lately seem to contradict the TACO rule. They may be telling Trump one thing and doing another.

4. No, Trump just didn't clear the exemptions with President Miller first

11. I'm so impressed by the strong leadership of the Orange Baby. His own cabinet overrides him.

12. This is awesome! Send the country into a food-free depression because

people from the boonies, like Puppy Killer, are afraid of cultural differences.

13. Or this could just be a smokescreen.......

to appease his cult? They want every brown person in the country removed and they'll scream bloody murder if Dear Leader makes any exceptions to his deportation-alooza. By "truthing" his false intentions to round them all up, that'll keep the Trump faithful happy.
He doesn't want to anger them. He hasn't wrung every last penny out of their bank accounts yet.

And time yet for a hundred indecisions,
And for a hundred visions and revisions,
And time for a hundred hooks and slices,

17. Ever get the feeling the people with the money power are all bored AF assholes at this point, created by that wealth?

Simple:
1 billion = 1,000 million
Someone lives 200 years, not 100, 200, that is still: 73050 days
You know what is next?
BOOM: Each BILLION is over $13,600 a day if you lived 200 years and never gained another nickel.
Explain how hard they work....
