I believe her coreligionists think she is very loyal.

[AppyPappy]

I believe it was also Ramadan in the 1973 attack

[chuckee]

Well, we didn’t want to do it on sacred Groudhog Day. So, Trump decided to do the same sh*t, different day and ring their bell again on their Ramalamadingdong Day

[AppyPappy]

Yep. it lasts 29 days

[MayflowerMadam]

What a mouthy little bitch. Can’t someone PLEASE do something about her? Lock her up? Deport her? Impeach her? I’ll stop there, although I do have other suggestions.

[Skwor]

I will happily pay more taxes if we would send way more than a couple dozen there.
