Only liars tell the truth

I'm not sure which is most sad:

- that he cares so much about it that he would have the photo edited

- that that is the best his team could do

- that he and they are running our country

Ok, I lied ... the last one is definitely the most sad.

On the other hand, Canada restricts the number of Syrian refugees that can be sponsored (to 1000?).

"The Government of Canada resettled more than 25,000 Syrian refugees between November 4, 2015 and February 29, 2016..."

"Private sponsors are scrambling to raise funds and complete applications for Syrian refugees after the Canadian government revealed that in 2017 there will be cap of 1,000 new applicants under a particular type of private sponsorship." Those are ones currently not in the system, specifically group-of-five and community sponsors.
Sponsorship Agreement Holders can still submit a total of 7,500 applications for refugees from any country. Eg. each of the 10 provinces could submit a total of 7,500 applicants from Syria this year. This will not happen, but could.

Did I read this correctly?
The white house gave a statement on Holocaust Remembrance Day, that totally omitted any mentioning of "Jews", "Judaism" or "Anisemitism"?
And that this statement was defended by the white houses chief of staff, Priebus, as intentional because "I mean, everyone’s suffering in the Holocaust, including, obviously, all of the Jewish people"?

Maybe they're throwing a bone to some of their antisemitic alt-right supporters?

Maybe they're throwing a bone to some of their antisemitic alt-right supporters?

Perhaps ... that would also explain why Trump made Steve Bannon, the owner of Breitbart News, head of the National Security Council

[ZEE]

Steve Bannon is one of the moast honest humans on the Planet right now and every time i see the man I feel better about myself and all aspects of my life.
