State Police Now Posing As Foreign Policy Experts

Taking their cue from Craven Carney, the Delaware State Police are calling for a 'pause' in allowing Syrian refugees into the country. Unlike Jack Markell, the cops unsurprisingly have demonstrated no knowledge of the already rigorous 18-24 months screening process that precedes the admission of any Syrian refugee into the country.  The words in the statement are boilerplate from the pants-wetters, including Craven Carney. Poor wittle police critters are scared of widows and orphans from Syria.

Timothy Egan at The New York Times writes about Donald Trump’s rhetoric in the race for the Republican nomination:
Take him at his word — albeit, a worthless thing given his propensity for telling outright lies and not backing down when called on them — Donald Trump’s reign would be a police state. He has now outlined a series of measures that would make the United States an authoritarian nightmare. Trump is no longer entertaining, or diversionary. He’s a billionaire brute, his bluster getting more ominous by the day.
