I just learned this and I have to share this before I even get the whole interview post published. Memorial Day is coming up and there are deported vets who can't come back to the US alive, but when they die, you can bring them back in a coffin with a DD-214 to be buried in a military cemetery. 💔

Olivia and her family fled an awful situation in the DRC. They’ve done everything right—working, studying, trying to live their lives free of fear. Like so many others, they got caught up in a broken immigration system. I'm thrilled she'll be coming home to Maine and reunited with her loved ones.

Q: "What is your original sin, in Trump's mind?" Comey: "The investigation of people in the Trump orbit that began in the summer of 2016…My original sin was doing that which any FBI director would have done…Saying, 'we need to investigate' and then support[ing] the investigation."
