President Trump ripped Minnesota Gov. Tim Walz as “seriously retarded” – and suggested Rep. Ilhan Omar “probably came into the USA illegally” –  in a rage-filled Thanksgiving message about immigration.

    “Somalian gangs are roving the streets looking for ‘prey’ as our wonderful people stay locked in their apartments and houses hoping against hope that they will be left alone”

    I’ve never met a Somali that wasn’t a friendly sort having lived here my whole life. Had one bring in some of these pretty awesome dumpling things called sambusa(?) once to work just cause reasons. Very chill bunch far as I’ve ever seen.

      It’s funny how conservatives the world over trot out the same tired conspiracy theories. The conservative parties in Australia have regularly tried out the ‘African gangs’ idea without much success.

      Yup, sambusa. They’re similar to samosas that you get in various forms all over South and South-East Asia. Delicious stuff.
