I don't care what Catherine Kim says, I've used every type of metal blade and only the best ones cutting steel and concrete will last even 15 seconds. Sorry Catherine, you are hearing some BS, give it a try sometime.

Illegal Border Crossings Rise for Sixth Straight Month

If you had enough blades with you, you had enough time, and you are cutting thin steel, and didn't have to cut concrete you could get it done. But you accept any anti-Trump story as gospel and act like a brat 7th grader to anybody that has any skepticism. Politics make you a bit juvenile.

The media determines how big a story is. Most important is whether or not it is anti-Trump.

"struggle with immigrant resentment"
Millions of poor Americans can argue millions of poor immigrants do not help them.

Tom Cruise Lays Down The Law For Breaking Covid Rules

Posted By Mel Maki
Some have claimed "The French Laundry" in the SF area where meals start at $300 has received $2.5 million in COVID funds. Seems unlikely they would claim damages that high.  I guess their competitors might have filed similar damages. Still seems like bad publicity.

Millions of poor Americans can argue millions of poor immigrants do not help their economic prospects. Are they wrong?
