Barak Obama?former deporter-in-chief?has called Trump's DACA decision "cruel", "self-defeating", and "wrong."

Bam. Obama just got Britschgi'd!

[Rufus The Monocled]

Hello.

Obama is soooo full of shit.

The more he opens his two-faced mouth, the more I want Trump to overturn his EO's that should have gone through Congress in the first place as is PROPER and RIGHT.

But since he's an arrogant little prick he didn't care about that though.

Hey, they have six months before their protest privileges are revoked.

I've heard that we all do. #Resist

"You know, even after DACA is undone, they're still not going to deport you unless you commit a crime"

"Oh yeah? We'll protest that illegally!"

What was that abouy the best and brightest?

A guy I know likes to talk Trump but takes the position of judge him on his own merits and that he doesn't care about Obama as he's gone.

I counter it's nearly impossible to NOT bring up Obama because the things Trump is denigrated for can be applied to that little shnott head faced little criticism.

Or is brain cancer being used to treat the Zika virus? Think about it.

White Castle Releases New Designer Uniforms

White Castle is updating its employees' uniforms in partnership with gender-neutral fashion brand Telfar. The American chain known for sliders and chicken rings unveiled the new shirts today, as well as plans for a new line of White Castle-inspired streetwear slated to debut this fall.

I'd slide her, if you know what I mean.

White kids are overloaded with antibiotics - putting them at higher risk of drug resistance than other races

White children have a far higher risk of becoming resistant to essential antibiotics than others because they are prescribed unnecessary medication at twice the rate, a new report has revealed.

The findings, published on Tuesday, shed light on a bitterly ironic catch to the fact that caucasians typically have better access to healthcare than blacks and Latinos.

White lives matter...too much?

[Rich]

It concluded that antibiotics are too often prescribed [to white children] for viral infections - despite the fact that they cannot be treated with antibiotics.

Is there *nothing* the CIA will not stoop to?

[Mickey Rat]

White people go to stupid pediatricians, got it.

[Zeb]

Uh, isn't it the bacteria that become resistant to the antibiotics?

[Fist of Etiquette]

Shouldn't you be wearing the bucket?

[EscherEnigma]

That also happens, but a person can also become resistant to antibiotics in that the antibiotic won't work for them anymore

[Zeb]

I did not know that.

but why are they being over prescribed for VIRAL infections?

It is thought that these glioblastoma stem cells continue to grow and divide, producing new tumour cells even after aggressive medical treatment.

Different, healthy stem cells are found in abundance in baby brains, which probably explains why regular Zika can be so damaging to infants, say the researchers.

Somebody needs to design an app that monitors Krugman's column, blog, and tweets, and notifies users when he says stocks are going to crash. It'd be a great "buy" signal.

[ChipToBeSquare]

Krugman is so slimy that he'll probably publish a column a week later saying stocks are going to do well, and in his mind it will somehow be completely consistent with his other column. You can't keep track of the man's position on anything

Business backlash hits Trump's DACA decision

The Trump administration's decision to halt a program for young people illegally brought to the United States as children was met with a furious backlash from the business community on Tuesday, with industry leaders quickly firing back.

Business groups have for years pressed Congress to pass immigration reform legislation, arguing such a step would boost the economy and help fill gaps in the workforce.

A Cato Institute study said that repealing DACA would result in billions in lost revenue to the government and economic output over the next decade.

The U.S. Chamber of Commerce, the nation's largest business group, said the Trump administration's decision to end DACA is "contrary to fundamental American principles and the best interests of our country."

Cucks all.

You want a cuck? HERE'S A CUCK:

A small Ohio news organization said one of its photographers was shot by a sheriff's deputy Monday night while he set up to take pictures of a random traffic stop.

Andy Grimm "had his camera in his hand" when he was shot in his side by a Clark County sheriff's deputy in New Carlisle, which north of Dayton, The New Carlisle News said in a Facebook post.

The newspaper speculated that the deputy may have mistaken the camera for a weapon. Grimm said the deputy, identified in reports as Jake Shaw, gave him no warning.

"I was just doing my job," he said. "I know Jake. I like Jake. I don't want him to lose his job over this."

Sources told the newspaper that there was "some confusion" surrounding the shooting.

"I just talked to Andy and he said that he is very sore, but in good spirits," Dale Grimm, the photographer's father and publisher of the New Carlisle News, told Fox News. "He said the hospital expects to be releasing him Tuesday. He also stressed that he does not want the deputy to lose his job over this."

[Half-Virtue, Half-Vice]

"Crooked Hillary" did come from Bernie. Apparently giving a paid speech at Goldman Sachs is a crime.

Then the Con Man hired a bunch of Goldman guys.

[Mickey Rat]

It may arguably be construed as a bribe.

[ChipToBeSquare]

Nah she just had really great advice for them, plus she's incredibly popular and well-liked by everybody. And those Saudis who donated to the Clinton Foundation really cared about womens' rights in third world countries. They stopped caring after Hillary lost though, that was strange

But no, it's probably not a crime. Hillary is great at staying within the rules of the game. It's actually pretty admirable. But she learned the hard way that "technically she did nothing illegal" does not translate to the voters as "she did nothing wrong"

And yes, whoever you vote for will put in Goldman guys, just like everyone eventually gives you John McCain's foreign policy

Christian Chaldean refugees in Michigan who campaigned for Trump are shocked discovered that "no refugees" includes them:

When ICE Came for the Chaldeans

[CE]

Maybe if they had picked the name of a real country....

[Sports Reporter Charles Manson]

"no refugees"

Really?

[Sports Reporter Charles Manson]

Oh, I see:

"Although many of the detainees came as refugees, and most came to the United States legally, almost all committed crimes that made them deportable. In a statement, ICE's Detroit field office director, Rebecca Adducci, described the raids as an effort "to address the very real public safety threat represented by the criminal aliens arrested." But according to data collected by CODE Legal Aid, half of the 114 Iraqis arrested in Michigan were convicted of drug-related crimes, and roughly 3 in 4 of nonviolent crimes."

So this is in part an example of the effects of the drug war, which, correct me if I'm wrong, started before Trump was President.

Anyway, I was skeptical of using "no refugees" to summarize the case.

[Sports Reporter Charles Manson]

Now, let's say the oppressiveness of the Trump regime prompts me to flee to some other country, say Indonesia, which welcomes me with open arms just so long as I don't violate their laws...then I set up a drug-smuggling operation, which may be consistent with the NAP, but doesn't show a lot of gratitude to the country which welcomed me, does it?

[Sports Reporter Charles Manson]

Now, let's assume Trump decided *not* to try and deport Chaldeans convicted of crimes, because they're good Republicans.

Imagine the stories then -

"while deporting Muslims and Mexicans, Trump ignores Republican-leaning Chaldeans convicted of deportable crimes.

"John Jones was seriously injured in a bar fight, and his attacker, a Chaldean Christian, was convicted. Jones is shocked to learn that his assailant is still at large.

"'Why isn't he deported?' Jones asks indignantly. "I guess Christian criminals are OK in Trump's America, compared to innocent Muslims..."

etc.
