This is a sitting member of Congress who called for immigrants to be executed by throwing them to their deaths out of helicopters. Mike Collins personally amplified neo-Nazi propaganda online. It's disqualifying for a member of Congress and for a candidate for the U.S. Senate.

The Ilhan Omar saga is a good reminder that Elon Musk has openly admitted to breaking immigration law when he first came to this country. Considering all the misdeeds he’s done since then, a future administration should definitely look at whether to strip Musk of his citizenship and deport him.

EXCLUSIVE: Four years ago, the NFL pledged $7 million to non-profits as part of Deshaun Watson’s suspension. But that money didn't all go to outside charities. Instead, the league steered some of the money back to itself to pay for its own internal "training." www.foiaball.com/p/nfl-deshau...
