Govt where a small issue deemed important by one loud group and therefore given as much attention as the objectively more important issues is insane.
The “problem” here is not necessarily a problem at all. And if it is, it’s the smallest of problems on which we might spend money and efforts. If Trump wants to pass a law or reg to address it, fine. But devoting significant resources to the enforcement of them is a waste. And the whole thing stinks of politics.

I hate days I agree with Sebby. But yes on all fronts here. Policy wise, this looks like a yawner. But this isn't about policy. This is about getting women coming to the US to spread their legs for CBP's pee stick in the hopes that the trauma will deter them and titillate the trumpers.
BTW, my group won a Grammy last night. I ended up not going - the Grammy folks didn't want me on the stage we discovered (they have an "artists only" policy, more directed at keeping record producers off the stage but also charitable board members) and it was too spendy a weekend for me given how much I have going on - a decision I think I will now regret for the foreseeable future. Those of you on FB will soon see me post a self with hardware, though.
