PROMISES MADE, PROMISES KEPT.
@NYTimes: 'The Trump administration cut
a Supreme Court order into confetti, then cut
legal immigration in half early this year
(Norwegians still welcome, obviously)
with policies blocking visas for
rapists, drug mules and some, I assume, good
immigrants from nearly half the globe.'
