Gonna start a little thread of famous American Immigrants. Lets start with General John Shalikashvili who immigrated from Poland at the age of 16. He rose to become the Joint Chief of Staff after Powell. He spent six years here before becoming a citizen in 1958.

The source insisted that the Strait of Hormuz is βclosedβ even if US President Donald Trump says it is open. βWe hold the screw of the global oil price in our hands and for a long time the US will have to wait for our actions to control the price. Energy prices have become unstable and we will continue to fight until Trump declares defeat,β the source said.

A Noem aide spent $3 million on pickup trucks emblazoned with the ICE name and logo, which ICE agentsβnotoriously averse to advertising their presenceβwill not drive, so they're just sitting in a lot, useless. The contract went to a Trump donor who owns a regional Chevy dealership.
