We acknowledge that no one has the bandwidth for this, but if it helps: -It’s ‘sleight of hand’ -It’s ‘bated breath’ -It’s ‘lo and behold’ -It's 'buck naked' -It’s ‘brass tacks’ -It’s ‘free rein’ -It’s ‘toe the line'

Dear Professor Charles Cardigan, It is my most sincere pleasure to introduce to you Count Lazlo von Kittensteuben. Here he is seen attempting to hinder my academic ascension in a vain attempt to maintain his own superiority while simultaneously mourning the loss of Nadja, Countess von Kittensteuben

Jared’s father, Charles Kushner, pleaded guilty to 18 counts of tax evasion and witness tampering. He hired a prostitute to seduce his brother-in-law, videotaped it, and mailed the tape to his sister. Trump pardoned him and made him Ambassador to France and Monaco. en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Charles...

A federal judge in Brooklyn on October 15 dismissed the Justice Department's lawsuit against New York City's sanctuary policies, writing that no federal law obligates states to take part in immigration enforcement. www.courthousenews.com/trump-loses-...

Body camera video shows a Texas trooper using Signal to send ICE an 18-year-old's ID during a traffic stop in Austin, and an ICE agent replying "Detain." The teen was later released after a habeas petition. www.aol.com/articles/tex...
