Unfortunately.
Especially when they refused to engage in profiling at our airports. Now we have morbidly obese Touch Sexual Area Agents groping 3 year old White girls looking for bombs.
It was 2007 before I realized he sucked balls.
A pity he survived prison. I’d have had him left alone with some violent gangbangers.
Thanks fieldmarshaldj.
He’s probably off on his way right now, plotting with some of OBunghole’s former administration people.
Paying a visit to Comrade Brennan or some other subversive traitors.
They stick together, after all.
