On CNN this morning, Daily Beast editor-in-chief and CNN political analyst John Avlon painted a very dark picture of Attorney General Jeff Sessions and his potential use of data provided to the federal government by “Dreamers.” Said Avlon:
“They are facing deportation after they gave their information and their addresses to the federal government. And all of a sudden now, Jeff Sessions . . . is in a position to weaponize that data, and go after these Dreamers, in a way that could be incredibly ugly in six months and is sinister.”

Ironically, sinister comes from the Latin which means “of the Left”.
Duh! Why do you think Trump is giving them six months grace to leave voluntarily there, Bozo?
If ‘weaponizing’ means using the information to kick the sorry parasites out,I am all for it. Incidentally, the Kenyan Usurper used the information for political reasons giving the data to the DNC.
I sincerely wish he would, but I doubt he will.
It was my first thought. Obama invited them into a program. They revealed their identities. Now DOJ can use that. It is the very normal function of a government.
I do not expect the Trump administration to do anything drastic, but now the dreamers will have a little more to add to their self-imposed paranoia.
The GOP should have sued to stop this the day after the Kenyanesian Usurper did it.
There would not be 800,000 illegally pardoned illegal aliens with work permits.
Great point!
As Attorney General, Sessions could enforce the law.
Leftists get the vapors.
News at 11.
“The GOP should have sued to stop this the day after the Kenyanesian Usurper did it. There would not be 800,000 illegally pardoned illegal aliens with work permits.”
It was ‘the optics’ (LOL), and it is a big part of why Trump won.
As to suing...MAYBE they could have stopped it, but our record on stopping Obamacare, especially in the second lawsuit, which was totally based on the ACTUAL WORDING of the bill that passed*...yet we still lost, the outcome would be far from certain.
*In that Supreme Court ruling, the wording was clear as day - no subsidies to states that didn’t set up their own exchanges. The wording was there to force states to put some skin in the game, but many didn’t...yet Obama kept the subsidies rolling in to those states (to prevent a complete collapse of the plan).
One of the conservative justices asked: “Couldn’t you just have Congress change the wording a bit (to strike that requirement for state-run exchanges)?” The Obama Administration official responded with “This Congress?”. They all had a nice big laugh and the Supreme Court decided that they needed to change the law themselves, since there was ‘no hope’ of Congress changing the law - and the court did indeed change the law.
But the left had no intention of Weaponizing tax rolls?
Gun registrations?
Gun purchase background checks?
Concealed Carry Permits?
Oh, No, that would not be sinister.
However, sifting through the Dreamer data to find illegals, now that sinister!!
War is peace.
Freedom is slavery.
Some are more equal than others.
Is this news or commentary?
Opinion stated as fact?
Tell me again how big government is great for the people!
CNN produces weaponized BS.
DAPA was stopped by a lawsuit by the states, the GOP Congress could have spared us all this drama, but they wanted amnesty any way they could get it.
