MEXICO CITY President Trump said Thursday his plan to deport undocumented immigrants is a "military operation," a comment that seemed to undercut Homeland Security Secretary John Kelly's assurances that there would be "no mass deportations" or use of the U.S. military in immigration enforcement plans.

Well, at least he was right about the head-spinning.

Just removed it.
Read the fine print, it was a fake quote.
Will replace with a good one.

I'm not aware that either of these are fake quotes.

(37 posts)Just curious. I'm actually somewhat of a stickler on reading the fine print, so I'm a little embarrassed that I missed it.

I assume that means it is a fake quotes page.

Congress, the courts, have to do their jobs or they become little more than accomplices.

(82,849 posts)In the comments on the MSN story about this, there's a whole flock of flying monkeys who say either (1) they totally understood what President Trump was saying, because they can read minds; or (b) "military operation" is a new form of adjective that apparently doesn't need a noun.
I gently pointed out to one of them that his defense of Trump's unconstitutional utterance made no fucking sense.
