    At this point, I’m not completely sure that this administration has really only appointed the most qualified people for those cabinet positions.

    Thanks, Obama.

    He was appointed by President Barack Obama as Immigration and Customs Enforcement’s executive associate director of enforcement and removal operations in 2013.

    In 2015, Obama awarded him a Presidential Rank Award as a Distinguished Executive. A Washington Post article at the time stated, “Thomas Homan deports people. And he’s really good at it.”

      when people look back, they never voted for Nixon, and Obama was a sainted figure, you should not be downvoted for pointing out the truth…Obama was a politiician who sold progressive and served middle-of-the-road…

    I don’t speak Spanish, but based on the absolutely tiny bit I do know, would this mean quesadillas would become “little cheesies”?

      Just spit balling, but it doesn’t make sense to translate things literally. A po’ boy is delicious, but eating a poor boy is generally frowned upon.

      Even better, gorditas literally translate to little fat girls i believe (but maybe I’m wrong). Tbf, we have a processed sausage-alike that we call a hot dog so language and our perception of it is weird

        It’s grammatical gender so it has nothing to do with girls, but it could in the right context. 😅

      Two spicy little donkeys with everything, three light meals for the boys, and a little cheesy for my wife, please.

      So, apparently it comes from “quesada” which was a form of cheesecake, and the “illa” diminutive ending. Over time it has come to mean a fried tortilla with cheese and other fillings… except

      In Mexico City, quesadillas don’t necessarily have cheese in them. The rest of the country makes fun of them for it. But, if you’re ever in Mexico City and want a nice cheesy quesadilla, be sure to order a “quesadilla con queso”.

      Damn it, now I’m hungry.

    Fox news with the hard hitting journalism, as usual. And that saggy faced guy looks like he might have a coronary within the hour, someone should get him some help or he might die on tv. For now at least he is still entitled to universal health care via medicare.

    Can males have resting bitch face?
    That should be the real headline. Also, my toddler gets that look on his face when he is about to dump his food on the floor and cry, without actually knowing why he is crying.

    He looks like he’d find eating any vegetable “offensive” as well. He might eat a pudding cup.

    To be fair to this racist moron, there is a difference between mainland spanish and latin american spanish. To be clear I am not justifying his dumbass comment in any way.

    Edit: This is just about calling the language “mexican”

          I don’t know but it feels way too ridiculous to believe. Then again, there’s usually someone posting the evidence that it’s fake, but I don’t see it.

          I’d go look for it myself, but that would cause me nothing good

    I feel like this is fake.

    Two reasons. I was unable to find a video clip of this, and it’s not nearly racist enough for these shit-hawks.

    If some has the clip, please share.

    Edit: 3 reason, we’re also on a shitpost channel.
