It failed back in the ’80s, it’ll

The State Department claimed that immigrants from the countries on the list — including Afghanistan, Brazil, Egypt and Somalia — “take welfare from the American people at unacceptable rates.” The move marks an escalation of the Trump’s administration’s crackdown on immigration, which has included deportations and freezes on visa applications.

Rubio says US not at war with Venezuela, as Maduro set to appear in New York court on Monday

We’re seeing the ‘gunboat diplomacy’ of the previous centurypublished at 22:01 GMT 4 January 22:01 GMT 4 January Joe InwoodWorld news correspondent Generally, client governments are established with at least the illusion of independence, no matter how implausible.
