Trump executive order to classify Judaism as a race or nationality<\/a>: \u201cThe order will effectively interpret Judaism as a race or nationality, not just a religion, to prompt a federal law penalizing colleges and universities deemed to be shirking their responsibility to foster an open climate for minority students. In recent years, the Boycott, Divestment and Sanctions \u2014 or B.D.S. \u2014 movement against Israel has roiled some campuses, leaving some Jewish students feeling unwelcome or attacked.\u201d<\/p>\n SIGN OF THE TIMES<\/strong>.

AOC\u2019s district is the least American<\/a>. \u201cWell, part of the reason is because her district is actually one of the least American districts in the country. Now by that, I don\u2019t mean that it\u2019s not part of America, but it\u2019s occupied by relatively few American citizens. A very high percentage of her district is, in fact, illegal aliens. Now, the way they inhabit housing there is such that they live<\/a> in a lot of illegal spaces, like basements and many people live<\/a> there. So they wind up producing a lot of garbage that the landlords don\u2019t want thrown out normally. So hence, you wind up with a lot of garbage on the streets, you have illegal food vendors pouring their pig grease into the gutters. I mean I worked out there, it can be a little gross.\u201d<\/p>\n MUSIC VIDEO OF THE DAY<\/strong>.
