Barack Obama: “I urge all Americans to commemorate this time when we celebrate the history and culture of Caribbean Americans.”

The effort, he said, “should outrage all Americans, regardless of how they feel about Congresswoman Omar’s political views.”

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.

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.

It is a decision about how do we face and embrace this finite amount of time we have on the planet.
