Let me get this straight, this man (whose net worth is 4,000,000 times what I make in a year) has spent over 1,600 times what I make in a year so that he doesn't have to pay taxes? Right, right, right... As Senator Stern (Gary Shandling) once told Tony Stark in Iron Man 2, "Fuck you buddy."

The short answer is "Yes!". The long answer is "Yes, absolutely!".
A screen capture from the bird app that used to be Twitter quoting an exchange between Amy Klobuchar and Todd Blanche during one of Blanche's confirmation hearings.

KLOBUCHAR: "Do you agree that it's unacceptable for federal agents to forcibly enter someone's home without a warrant and drag them into the street without checking that they even have the right person?"

BLANCHE: "Well, it depends on the circumstances. It's not a black and white answer..."

Here’s a charming Roman fresco of a little rabbit eating figs 🐰❤️ From Pompeii, 45-79 AD. Now at the Museo Archeologico Nazionale di Napoli. 📷 by me #FrescoFriday #Archaeology
My photo shows a Roman fresco of a brown rabbit with long ears, curled on the ground, with a rounded, soft-looking body. Its head is lowered as if nibbling at three figs placed in front of it. The figs are small and round with short stems, painted in dark reddish and bluish tones. From Pompeii. Now on display at the National Archaeological Museum in Naples.
