Barack Obama: “Sometimes, kids are going to make mistakes; sometimes, they're going to make bad decisions.”

I think when we act on that basis, it doesn't always work out, but over time things do get better.

Now the Administration is actively trying to deport Congresswoman Omar, seemingly based solely on the unsubstantiated theory that she was actually 18 when her father was naturalized, and therefore is not a citizen.

The fact that any president, or any administration, is willing to engage in such transparent efforts to intimidate someone should outrage all Americans, regardless of how they feel about Congresswoman Omar’s political views.

And I will fight for that, even if I don’t always think it’s going to win.
