We’ve discussed illegal immigration at length here many times and I’ve posted the data from official sources more than a few times. It pertains to deportations, not temporary detentions before release / deportation. The historically high number of deportations under Obama is what earned him the title of Deporter In Chief by his critics on the far left
All of the international inspectors confirmed that Iran was living up to its agreements under the nuclear deal, as did Trump’s own advisers who urged him not to withdraw.
If you have official data from verified sources that proves either of those false, I’ll take a look at it.
I’m not mocking the religious right. However, I do not want to see the separation of church and state eroded for political gain. I think it’s one of the key factors in a peaceful and diverse democracy.
And, I think the religious right deserves more credit than you give them — they have undoubtedly achieved victories, in my view. For example, private businesses are legally able to refuse service based on religious beliefs. There have been a record number of judgeship appointments under Trump, judgeships to younger religious conservatives across the country. Religious organizations have also maintained their tax exempt status on the billions of dollars of revenue they bring in. All of which was achieved legally and according to the rules of our political structure and I’m not suggesting otherwise.
I support Trump and company talking to adversaries like North Korea and Russia; done strategically and with clear goals. The politicians who insist the U.S. shouldn’t be talking and attempting diplomacy are wrong, in my opinion.
I don’t know about North Korea returning remains previously FryGuy. I’m on my phone in a motel in Southern California and getting ready to hit the road, so my ability to search and post is limited for now. In any case, if the remains are verified as those of American soldiers, it’s a good thing and an achievement for Trump. No argument there.
