      Yeah we cancelled any plans we had for a US visit. Not taking any risks with those action eager ICE pricks with my wife being from Mexico.

      We’ll revisit that prospect if and when this hellish insanity dies down.

      I wonder if there’s any data on tourism decline since cheeto started flailing his proverbial axe around blindly.

    The Trump administration are such idiots. They can’t deport the illegal ones, so to keep the numbers up they go for the ones who actually are here legally.

    This whole country is a mess.

      Hungary’s secret police under Rákosi worked with arrest quotas, if they couldn’t find enough criminals, they just tortured someone until they admitted to the crime, often of which the penalty was death. Kádár somewhat relaxed this rule.

      Arrest quotas turn police into hell.
