Giuliani: Trump no longer wants mass deportations

Giuliani: Trump no longer wants mass deportations
Eric Bradner Updated 2:03 PM ET, Sun September 4, 2016

Washington (CNN)One of Donald Trump's top supporters insisted Sunday that the Republican nominee is backing away from one of his most controversial immigration proposals: mass deportations.

In an interview with CNN's Jake Tapper on "State of the Union," former New York Mayor Rudy Giuliani said Trump doesn't want to break up immigrant families in America.
Giuliani told CNN's Jake Tapper on "State of the Union" that Trump "would find it very, very difficult to throw out a family that has been here for 15 years and they have three children, two of whom are citizens. That is not the kind of America he wants."

Oklahoma Shuts Down Energy Companies' Disposal Wells In Area Of Strong Quake

Oklahoma Shuts Down Energy Companies' Disposal Wells In Area Of Strong Quake
September 4, 20169:24 AM ET BILL CHAPPELL

After one of the strongest earthquakes ever to hit Oklahoma struck Saturday, state regulators ordered oil and gas companies to shut down all their wastewater disposal wells in a 725-square-mile area around the site of the quake's epicenter near Pawnee.

The seismic activity immediately raised suspicions that it was linked to injection wells that oil and gas companies use as part of fracking and other operations.

Arizona GOP Releases ‘Wanted’ Poster With Bullet Holes Around Democratic Candidate’s Face

Arizona GOP Releases ‘Wanted’ Poster With Bullet Holes Around Democratic Candidate’s Face
Alice OllsteinFollow Politics Reporter @ThinkProgress

The image has outraged many in the state, as it comes just five years after another Arizona Democratic congresswoman was shot in the head at a public event.

Former Rep. Gabby Giffords (D-AZ), who survived the attempted assassination in 2011 but remains partially paralyzed with limited speech, joined the chorus of voices demanding the state GOP remove the “irresponsible” poster and apologize.

When Hillary Clinton Is President, We Will Get To Eat SO MANY TACOS

When Hillary Clinton Is President, We Will Get To Eat SO MANY TACOS
By Evan Hurst - September 2, 2016


Do you like to have the tacos? We are fans of having the tacos and we do not mean like Taco Bell, although Taco Bell is gorgeous and godly in its own way. We also do not mean like that taco bowl trash the Trump Tower mess hall cuts up into itty bitty bite-sized pieces so Donald Trump is able to grasp it with his little rat fingers.

Latino Trump Supporter Marco Gutierrez Warns Of Dark Future With ‘Taco Trucks On Every Corner’

Latino Trump Supporter Marco Gutierrez Warns Of Dark Future With ‘Taco Trucks On Every Corner’
“My culture is a very dominant culture.”
09/01/2016 10:16 pm ET | Updated 1 hour ago Ed Mazza Overnight Editor

Donald Trump won’t just deport undocumented immigrants. Apparently, he is also America’s best hope against the Great Taco Truck Menace.

Latinos for Trump cofounder Marco Gutierrez issued the strange prophecy during a discussion of Trump’s proposal to deport millions. He began by quoting “Star Trek,” saying “the needs of the many outweigh the needs of the few.”

Then, for good measure, he added, “and different times, different problems.”

When asked to clarify, Gutierrez went from “Trek” to trucks, specifically taco trucks.

“My culture is a very dominant culture,” he warned. “And it’s imposing, and it’s causing problems. If you don’t do something about it, you’re gonna have taco trucks every corner.”

Kansas misses August revenue estimates by about $10 million

Kansas misses August revenue estimates by about $10 million
Staff and wire reports SEPTEMBER 1, 2016 4:12 PM

Kansas missed revenue estimates for August by more than $10 million.

The state fell 2.3 percent below estimates for the month overall.

It was the fourth straight month that Kansas has failed to hit its revenue projections. Tax collections have fallen short 10 of the past 12 months.

Kansas has struggled to balance its budget since GOP legislators heeded Brownback’s call to slash personal income taxes in 2012 and 2013 as an economic stimulus. On Thursday, an economist with the Washington-based Tax Foundation told Mississippi lawmakers evaluating planned tax cuts that Kansas is “an example of what not to do in tax reform.”
