I’m betting this has snowflake Omoslem’s fingerprints all over it. Probably another Executive Order.

Government waste

**********

Yes but this is a mere drop in a vast ocean of monumental waste. The average person has no idea how bad it is. Waste, fraud and mismanagement is totally out of control.

Trump was right about cutting waste. He could easily save billions. But he’s going to have to appoint the political equivalent of General Patton to do it. The agencies will fight back with everything thing they’ve got. And they are viscous infighters who know how to protect their political turf.

This PC obsession is not merely stupid and politically biased, it is injurious to the great English language in which identical words such as aliens (those from another planet) and aliens (non-citizens) have different meanings and shades of meaning from each other. There are numerous such words. Eliminating the nuances they enable dilutes the power and expressiveness of our language.

It is a LEGAL term, an accurate and legal term for someone illegally in the country.

“Alien” is a non-US citizen.

“Resident Alien” is a legal alien that is residing in the US.

“Illegal Alien” is an alien that is here illegally.

“Undocumented immigrant” is a political term.

What are we going to do next, airbrush cigarettes out of old films. . .wait. . .what. . .

Actually the term “Resident Alien” is not used. The term that is used is “Legal Resident”

Perhaps you are right:
https://www.uscis.gov/tools/glossary/permanent-resident-alien

Permanent RESIDENT ALIEN
An alien admitted to the United States as a lawful permanent resident. Permanent residents are also commonly referred to as immigrants; however, the Immigration and Nationality Act (INA) broadly defines an immigrant as any alien in the United States, except one legally admitted under specific nonimmigrant categories (INA section 101(a)(15)). An illegal alien who entered the United States without inspection, for example, would be strictly defined as an immigrant under the INA but is not a permanent RESIDENT ALIEN. Lawful permanent residents are legally accorded the privilege of residing permanently in the United States. They may be issued immigrant visas by the Department of State overseas or adjusted to permanent resident status by U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services in the United States.
