Since the beginning of the Visagate controversy, something has bothered me
about the explanation USCIS has been offering. Our own number crunching Visa

WASHINGTON—On Monday, Congress's non-partisan number cruncher released an
11-page report describing how the newly minted debt-ceiling deal would cut
the deficit by at least $2.1 trillion. While congressional offices were busy
studying the report, an official from the rating firm Standard & Poor's
quietly called to ask for details of the underlying projections.

Trump's Debt
IRWIN M. STELZER

Trump said he would erase America's debt in 8 years. It's now bigger than
ever.
As a candidate, Donald Trump promised to get rid of the entire national debt
“over a period of eight years.” When this promise was made, the national
debt stood at $19 trillion; it has since risen to $21.7 trillion. In the
fiscal year ending September 30, it grew by $779 billion, u... 阅读全帖 |

regarded as a defence against the sort of fanaticism that leads to social or
