So the Don has alluded to hundreds of Iranian sleeper cells in the US that are operating under the radar and pose a grave threat to our country, and they should be considered a terrorist organization.
So my question is why are we spending so much time and money arresting Mexican gardeners and nannies who are actually contributing to our economy and pose no threat to anyone ?
Somethin' ain't right

The Boogieman du jour....
Gotta have a Them to rally the cud-chewing illiterates against. For a while it was the Hispanics, when Muslim-hating lost its charm. Gays and Blacks had their turn in the barrel, as have Poles & Italians; and the Jews have certainly borne more than their share of scapegoating over the centuries.
What pisses me off - what REALLY pisses me off - is that the Republicans knows perfectly well that this isn't just political performance for the benefit of what has been reliable support of selective oppression - they know fucking well that it's wrong. But so frightened are they are of displeasing their orange messiah, that they fall over one another rationalizing his senile blathering, lest he cast them into disgrace, summoning his MAGA swamp critters to target them. But it's a whole lot easier than growing a spine, so there's that.
And people wonder why I prefer living alone out in the woods.....

Re: sleeper cells
In a perfect world the republican party would be ruined, and forgotten for at least a generation, because as you mentioned, They Knew !
In a copy of The Scientific American there is a quote about an Inuit tribe's perspective on the problem of psychopathy :
" In a 1976 study anthropoogist Jane M. Murphy, then at Harvard University, found that an isolated group of Yupik-speaking Inuits near the Bering Strait had a term ( kunlangeta ) they used t describe a 'man who...repeatedly lies and cheats and steals things and....takes sexual advantage of many women---someone who does not pay attention to reprimands and who is always being brought to the elders for punishment' When Murphy asked an Iniut what the group would typically do to a kunlangeta, he replied' Someone would have pushed him off the ice when no one else was looking '"
In our society, we do not push psychopaths off the ice....we let them rule the world
