I'm sure aides and advisors must have tried to brief him prior to yesterday's speech and press conference, but to no avail, because he just doesn't listen. The same thing takes place at my job during staff meetings. Someone has the floor, and he or she gets interrupted. I thought we all learned from age 3 not to do that. Arrrrrggghhh.
I pity the poor immigrant Who wished he'd stayed home Who uses all his power to do evilAnd in the end is always left alone
Like men who with his fingers cheatsAnd who lies with every breathWho passionately hate his lifeAnd likewise fears his death
I pity the poor immigrantWho's strength is all in vainWho's heaven is like iron sidesWho's tears fall like rain
Who eats but is not satisfied Who hears but does not seeWho falls in love with wealth and selfAnd turns his back on me
I pity the poor immigrantWho tramples through the mudWho fills his mouth with laughingAnd who builds his town with blood
Who visions it may finally endMust shatter like the glassI pity the poor immigrantWho his gladness comes surpass.

President Donald Trump used his State of the Union address on Tuesday to repeat the made-up claim that border barriers “immediately” saved El Paso from being one of America’s most dangerous cities. On Wednesday, Trump’s reelection campaign announced that he will double down on the lie by holding a rally on Monday at the El Paso County Coliseum.

He adds that Trump’s message is also damaging to El Paso’s economy at a time when the city is trying to attract professionals and students.

Alexsandra Annello, another district representative, says it was disappointing to hear Trump continuing to mislead Americans. “El Paso has been a diverse, binational, bilingual community,” she says. &ld... less

"Democracy"
It's coming through a hole in the air, from those nights in Tiananmen Square. It's coming from the feel that this ain't exactly real, or it's real, but it ain't exactly there. From the wars against disorder, from the sirens night and day, from the fires of the homeless, from the ashes of the gay: Democracy is coming to the U.S.A. It's coming through a crack in the wall; on a visionary flood of alcohol; from the staggering account of the Sermon on the Mount which I don't pretend to understand at all. It's coming from the silence on the dock of the bay, from the brave, the bold, the battered heart of Chevrolet: Democracy is coming to the U.S.A. It's coming from the sorrow in the street, the holy places where the races meet; from the homicidal bitchin' that goes down in every kitchen to determine who will serve and who will eat. From the wells of disappointment where the women kneel to pray for the grace of God in the desert here and the desert far away: Democracy i... less
