Across the US in recent weeks, federal officials have revoked visas from international students for infractions ranging from accusations of domestic terrorism to speeding tickets as part of President Trump’s crackdown on immigration. Schools in Florida are now trying to employ a new tactic to widen immigration officials’ reach and abilities on college campuses. So far, Florida Atlantic University in Boca Raton, the University of Florida in Gainesville and the University of South Florida in Tampa are seeking to deputize their campus police specifically for immigration enforcement, representatives for the schools told The Associated Press. 1 9 Link to comment https://forums.primetimer.com/topic/150441-chit-chat-the-feels/page/244/#findComment-8635455

"The message that we're trying to send is pretty much that we're here and we're going to fight for what we believe in, especially when it comes to our education and whatnot, because our education is the basis of our future," Payton, a 10th grader at Lakenheath High School in England who helped organize the walkouts, told Military.com in a phone interview. "Our parents are actively fighting for our country for us to be able to have these rights," added Payton, who asked to be identified only by his first name out of fear of retaliation. Payton said he was aware of at least 503 students at 10 schools in Europe, Asia and Virginia who participated in the walkouts. Students at four more schools were expected to participate as well, but he had not gotten a report from them as of Thursday afternoon. 10 8 1 Link to comment https://forums.primetimer.com/topic/150441-chit-chat-the-feels/page/244/#findComment-8635530

I would not have made that connection about why CNN will keep him, though. That's interesting. I don't know why CNN is so afraid of being accused of bias when no one at Fox News cares. Can you explain that to me? 28 minutes ago, bluegirl147 said: CNN is corporately owned. Currently Warner Brothers Discovery owns it. So two things are happening. One they want to make money so they don't want to upset advertisers or do something to cause a boycott. And two there is any number of things that Warner Brothers Discovery might need help with politically. So they don't want to piss off the current regime, more specifically Trump. CNN probably figures that airing HIGFY satisfies the Liberal quota. Similarly, HBO probably feels that LWT w/ John Oliver does the same there. Both are Warner Brothers Discovery properties. 2 3 Link to comment https://forums.primetimer.com/topic/150441-chit-chat-the-feels/page/244/#findComment-8635935
tres bien April 15 Share April 15 (edited) It probably eats at Gramps everyday that Barack Obama lived in the White House.

Whether he likes it or not Barack Obama was president. I'm surprised Trump hasn't had murals of him painted on the walls. Karma has a way of working things out. Might be subtle. Might be too blatant to miss. But I have faith at least some of them are going to pay the piper. When it comes to the media what they don't show is also a form of propaganda.

As I posted yesterday WB is already trying to make nice with him A possible reality show for Donnie Jr? More Trump friendly voices on CNN? Maybe they should just turn over an hour or two to Scott Jennings This nonstop appeasement of an unstable unfit out of control lunatic is going to come biting the asses of the people who could have stopped this in January 2021.

People always mock the way "kids today" get trophies just for going to the potty but it looks like good old JD never got so much as a participation ribbon in his life. 1 10 Link to comment https://forums.primetimer.com/topic/150441-chit-chat-the-feels/page/244/#findComment-8635947

That's dangerous. If you look back through history those who held that much power didn't usually have things turn out well for them. Hitler was a coward and took the easy way out when on the verge of being defeated. Mussolini was shot and then hung up and stoned. Saddam Hussein was hanged. And those that survived usually end up in exile. If not in a different country then in seclusion. Trump is not going to be remembered fondly. If he were to die today a lot of people would be dancing in the streets. If he dies a year from now more people will be dancing in the streets. Things are not going to get better for him. 10 8 Link to comment https://forums.primetimer.com/topic/150441-chit-chat-the-feels/page/244/#findComment-8635948

Trump supporters are watching Fox and those other right wing networks or podcasts or whatever. Anti Trumpers will not keep watching CNN if they are given a steady dose of Trump friendly propaganda. They will leave and find other sources. 7 minutes ago, Ohiopirate02 said: Why does JD always look like an alien in a human suit? Men in Black told us there are aliens among us. Clearly whatever planet Vance came from they sure do like their eyeliner. 5 minutes ago, Dimity said: but it looks like good old JD never got so much as a participation ribbon in his life. Much less won anything. I mean we can't even really say Vance won his Senate seat. Without Peter Thiel's "donations" I doubt he would have won. 9 Link to comment https://forums.primetimer.com/topic/150441-chit-chat-the-feels/page/244/#findComment-8635951
