Comedian Trevor Noah has a theory on why Cruz was looking at porn. His theory is completely safe for work. :)

And Ted Cruz is all like "It.. It was a staff problem. Yes. Yes, that's what happened... it was a staff blunder, not me, no way, it was staff."

Is that article literally just repeating the words of a comedy tv show. With ads every third or fourth sentence.

That's impressive. I imagine that untrained individuals without a degree in journalism could only manage an ad every seven sentences. Truly, a master of the medium.

I don't see ads inserted every third or fourth sentence....

Would you rather have me directly link you to a video of Trevor Noah saying that instead of the article?

I would, but I didn't mean to for what I said to be critical against you, so that is beside my point - I was just commenting  on the journalism of it in itself. I apologise for causing any offense.

*looks at article with adblock off*

There is one in the middle which shunts the text to the side.

*looks at it on iphone*

Yeah, there's two ads on the iphone. Conclusion: Ads in mobile are terrible and their layout is terrible too.

My ad experience was subtler, they were smaller, and every three paragraphs (albeit that paragraphs were often single sentences) and ignorable. I scanned, then played the embedded video at the top at the first opportunity to switch to wifi, and that satisfied me most.

(The article seemed to quote it, but with commentary, and may not have included a full transcript. I didn't make note, but by relative size (time vs text-space) it seemed like it didn't.)

Heh, I just admit I deliberately changed it from paragraph to sentence because it sounded more dramatic; )

So the question on everyone's mind is, did Democrats and Trump make an agreement to enshrine DACA in law in exchange for non-wall related border security?
The answer, of course, is No! ...Or Yes? Um, definte Maybe.

Anyway, I hope this clears things up for you all.

And to further the confusion.. Deal wasn't made, wall will be built...  "The WALL will be LATER!"...  Nancy Pelosi: We agreed to a plan to work out an agreement... O Kay....

Trump and the Dems are literally struggling to agree with each other here.

Meanwhile Paul Ryan is saying that he won't do a DACA or Dreamer bill without something added for border security (which means... wall?) at the same time.

edit: Aaaand We won't do anything for DACA if no wall...

Seriously though, all that money that would go to the wall would be better spent on other things.

And the Republicans won't do DACA without some major stuff on border security, so, it's an impossible thing if the is present or not present because one side won't do it if it's there and the other side (Trump in particular) won't if it isn't there.
