I’m sure we’ve all been in positions where we felt the urge to just make shit up, hoping to get out of a challenging situation, and hoping we could just gloss over something and move on. Or just winged it in situations where we were inadequately prepared. But the idea that someone would feel perfectly comfortable just bullshitting AS A HIGH RANKING OFFICIAL IN TELEVISED TESTIMONY BEFORE CONGRESS?!
Just so sad that this is accepted as normal - or even praised - by so many these days.
noem must have missed all the recent pope coverage. if she had seen even a bit of it she could have figured out what the latin meant.
Breaking News: President Trump has ordered his DOJ to sue Merriam-Webster for their incorrect definition of habeas corpus.

Trump never met her and she’s not his type.
Gift link to a New York Times article about a small Missouri town that was solidly for Trump until Carol, a 45-year-old mother, waitress and housecleaner in town, was arrested and is facing deportation.
Many are now asking how you can support Carol and also Mr. Trump.
“I voted for Donald Trump, and so did practically everyone here,” said Vanessa Cowart, a friend of Ms. Hui from church. “But no one voted to deport moms. We were all under the impression we were just getting rid of the gangs, the people who came here in droves.”
She paused. “This is Carol.”
Also posted in Leopards thread.
I am sure this is true, but I still find it really hard to believe. They really thought that, what, different rules should apply to moms?
Why don’t people think!
Did these people really think that the deportations would stop with violent criminals, especially given that the administration talked about deporting millions? They like to talk about this person who was a rapist or murderer but the fact is that the vast majority of the undocumented are normal people who just want a better life. Just like most people already in this country.
It’s OK Vanessa, we’ll Photoshop use Paint to put some gang tattoos on Carol and you can go back to your blissfully ignorant hate.
Pro Tip Vanessa: the gangs and the people who came here in droves are not a single group. Carol is part of the ‘drove’. What’s happening to Carol is exactly what you wanted to happen.
Guess they didn’t get the message that as far as Trump is concerned ANY person here without proper documentation is a dangerous felon and an imminent threat to national security. Including nice little ladies like Carol.
No. He doesn’t care about “proper documentation” at all. That’s just an excuse he uses. Trump’s thugs have arrested and deported people that have the proper documentation.
as far as Trump is concerned ANY person here without being a white, heterosexual, bible bashing right wing extremist is a dangerous felon and an imminent threat to national security.
They don’t give a shit about Carol. They’re just sad because they lost their housecleaner. As soon as they find a new one, they’ll forget all about her.
Oooh - I wager there is more than a hint of truth tho this.
If he was so concerned about crime, why commute the sentence of a gang leader and drug dealer?
Kilmar Abrego Garcia back in United States, faces criminal charges
I wonder why they didn’t do that in the first place.
Oh yeah, due process. They had to violate the constitution first.
Can someone remind me what his charges are? I thought he was abducted deported because . . .well, just because. Brown and all that.
No shit. These idiots have wasted so much money and time and effort. Let it go already.
Good to know you can rely upon the Attorney General of the United States when she makes ringing, declarative, unambiguous, no-nonsense statements like this.
From the New York Times, “Federal prosecutors have now indicted him with charges related to transporting undocumented migrants, according to an indictment unsealed on Friday.”
