It’s a Stephen Miller scheme. Could you have guessed? He even looks like a Bond villain.
“The Trump administration pressured the Department of Homeland Security to release immigrants detained at the southern border into so-called sanctuary cities in part to retaliate against Democrats who oppose President Donald Trump’s plans for a border wall.”
Trump not only admitted this, but bragged about it on Twitter:
Due to the fact that Democrats are unwilling to change our very dangerous immigration laws, we are indeed, as reported, giving strong considerations to placing Illegal Immigrants in Sanctuary Cities only….

Some say that the DHS resistance to this plan is the reason for Nielsen’s removal and/or the alleged ongoing house-cleaning at the agency. Rumor has it that they will also fire the DHS General Counsel who told the White House that this was probably illegal. That person, John Mitnick, is allegedly the “reason why most of the immigration policies from DHS never came to fruition.” Insiders say that Nielsen’s failure to remove Mitnick and some others was an important reason why she was in the doghouse.
I have to say this plan is genius.
EVIL genius, of course.
It’s immoral, and probably illegal, so it’s pure Lex Luthor genius, but genius nonetheless.
Steve Miller is a WYSIWYG.
This creature could give former MLB pitcher (and a good one) Don Mossi a run in the Not Quite Beautiful Sweeps.
Bill James on Mossi:
“Don Mossi was the complete five-tool ugly player. He could run ugly, hit ugly, throw ugly, field ugly and ugly for power. He was ugly to all fields. He could ugly behind the runner as well as anybody, and you talk about pressure … man, you never saw a player who was uglier in the clutch.”
Don was also known as a really nice guy. Kid Corpse Face , well….
As far as I know, this is straight out abuse of power. Highly impeachable.
Nothing Trump does is impeachable while the Republicans control the Senate. At least, not unless he gets hit on the head by a coconut and fervently embraces the policies of Bernie Sanders. Then they will impeach him for spitting on the sidewalk, or possibly wearing a tan suit.
Chris – Wait, who said that?
Scoop – Jesus, I was EATING my LUNCH when all of a sudden there’s a full-color picture of that fuckstick. Have a little consideration! I mean, that’s awfully rough to look at, couldn’t you do the story without the picture? OK, maybe it helped show how he looks like Dr. Evil. But the least you could do is offset it by…showing something else that’s pleasant to look at…um…y’know, never mind. We’re cool here.
