Barack Obama: “And we say a special thanks for the sacrifices those men and women in uniform are making for our safety and freedom.”

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.

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