It is not "fine" at all. CNN last week intentionally reported the absurd claim that Richard Spencer questioned whether Jews are people. They knew it was incorrect, and reported it anyway. Only later did they issue a quiet retracti

I have the Skullcanyon NUC, and this is not comparable. I've been waiting for someone to offer me ECC in a small form factor. This is the first time I've ever seen it.

Meanwhile, those of us who elected him did so based largely on his policy promises, including immigration. So if he wishes to appease his electorate, this better not be mere posturing, and he absolutely should select Arpaio, a man eminently
