All their blather about \u201cour democracy\u201d is a smokescreen for the lust to shutdown free speech at all costs and push everybody around. It will be interesting to see who shows up at the jetway when Mr. Carlson actually does land back in America. The FBI, you think? With a set of leg-irons (like they did with Peter Navarro)?<\/p>\n<p>Mr. Putin might also explain how immigration works in Russia, Russia, Russia, where you have to fill out an application, explain who you are, and be evaluated as worthy to enter. Not everybody makes the grade. But, surprise, surprise, surprise, not everybody seeks to enter a country with good intentions. Can you imagine that? The Party of Mental illness in America does not believe that anyone can have less than good intentions. At least that\u2019s what they pretend (because they are mentally ill). So, anyone at all can drift across the Mexican border into the USA. They call that \u201cdiversity and inclusion.\u201d It\u2019s a thought problem.<\/p>\n<p><strong>We are letting a lot of people with probably less than good intentions into our country.

Nikki excels at that. She is represented by the blob\u2019s CIA talent agency. The same agency handles the vote tabulation machines around the USA, so let\u2019s see how Nikki does in the South Carolina Republican primary on February 24. \u201cJoe Biden\u201d got 97 percent of the vote there last week.
