Pretend is a weird word. Name does not a person make.
Beto has used the name since birth and grew up in an area with a significant Hispanic community.
Ted was born in Alberta and his mom is 3/4 Irish and 1/4 Italian. He moved to Texas when he was 4 and attended private schools before going to Princeton.
GWB had good support from Latino/Hispanic because he spoke Spanish and actually target Latino voters during his campaigns.
I can?t believe trump is back at it with healthcare repeal again.
This is gross political malpractice.
He had a good news cycle going for him , rather than milk it for what it?s worth and then adopt a reconciliatory tone that could go a long way towards increasing his re election chances , he is doubling down on a bad strategy .

?New York Times article: Obama administration officials are sharpening their crackdown on the hiring of illegal immigrants by focusing increasingly tough criminal charges on employers while moving away from criminal arrests of the workers themselves.
Among the employers who have felt the impact of the administration?s tactics are two owners of Mexican restaurants in the Chuy?s Mesquite Broiler chain, which are popular for their laid-back Margaritaville mood and their broiled mahi tacos. On April 20, immigration agents descended on 14 Chuy?s restaurants in coordinated raids in Arizona and California, detaining kitchen workers and carrying away boxes of payroll books and other evidence.?

NBC article: Trump reverses course on Special Olympics funding cut after Betsy DeVos comes under fire
"The Special Olympics will be funded, I just told my people," President Trump said Thursday afternoon.
The president's announcement comes after his education secretary, Betsy DeVos, was grilled by congressional Democrats in two hearings this week over the proposal to eliminate all federal funding for the Special Olympics.
The Special Olympics is largely funded by private donations but receives $18 million a year in federal funds that the organization said it uses for school programs for students with disabilities.
DeVos expressed support of the budget change after the president's announcement.
https://www.google.com/amp/s/www.nbcnews.com/news/amp/ncna988576
So was DeVos was against it and now for it.
I will always look out for the little guy. I understand the special olympics to the individuals and families.

The real question is while everyone was squealing about Special Olympics, what sh*t went under the radar.

I was listening to NPR this morning and they talked about SSA no match letters once again being sent to employers. I found it strange that Obama stopped the practice. Why would SSA not inform an employer of an employee's SS number not matching their name?

It's already against the law to hire illegal immigrants. As much as I think trump is a doofus, I'm glad the letters are going out again. Why did obama end it? As an employer, I want to know if my workers SSN's are not matching.

?Huffington Post Article: Chipotle Fires Hundreds After Immigration Raid
An immigration probe has forced Mexican chain Chipotle to fire hundreds of employees in Minnesota, over recent weeks, the Wall Street Journal reports.
Chipotle Mexican Grill Inc., which owns and operates nearly 1,100 restaurants around the country and employs 25,000 people, was told several months ago that it would face an audit of its I-9 forms, which verify workers can work in the U.S. legally, a Chipotle spokesman told the WSJ.
The Obama Administration is targeting employers with raids of company documents, the WSJ reports, with 2,740 companies audited in the fiscal year that ended September 30th, resulting in a record $7 million in fines for businesses who employed illegal workers.
