A real gem. I was just thinking of Tracey's extraordinary humor, this popped up and I have to share.

AMBER RUDD (*Photo, above Rt.). British former politician. Rudd worked as an investment banker before being elected to the House of Commons in 2010. She was appointed Home Secretary on 13 July 2016 & resigned in April 2018 in connection with the Windrush deportation scandal.. CONTROVERSIES: In April 2018, it was reported that the children of immigrants of the "Windrush generation" who arrived before 1973 were being threatened with deportation by the British government if they could not prove their right to remain in the UK. However, the relevant documentation had been destroyed. Rudd apologised for the "appalling" treatment of the Windrush generation, but faced calls to resign.
.. Rudd first denied there were targets for the removal of immigrants. Later, she maintained that she had not known of targets. Later still, The Guardian published leaked evidence that Rudd had known about targets: "The 6-page memo says the dept. has set 'a target of achieving 12,800 enforced returns in 201718' & indicates that 'we have exceeded our target of assisted returns'. It adds that progress has been made on a 'path towards the 10% increased performance on enforced returns.. The revelation contradicted Rudd's public pronouncements concerning what she was aware of the targets for enforcing the removal of immigrants...https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Amber_Rudd

but because of the current problem(s) with a conman-crook-sexual predator running for the highest political office in this land, I could not but wonder if this scenario is again in store for decent hardworking and diverse Americans.

a deadly, contagious virus for personal gain would have been a plus.
But, no job candidate can have everything, I suppose.
