There, he gave a racist, anti-immigrant speech to the apparent joy of the audience.Regarding the green card lottery system—a frequent target of this administration, despite the president’s seeming inability to understand what it actually entails—Trump said: “You think the [other] countries [are] giving us their best people? No.”“They give us the worst people,” Trump continued. “They put them in a bin, but in his hand when he’s pickin’ ‘em is really the worst of the worst.”The crowd laughed.Trump also used the opportunity to raise the specter of one of his favorite immigration boogymen: the MS-13 gang.“To any member of MS-13 listening,” Trump said, doing his best Liam Neeson, “We will find you. We will arrest you. We will jail you. We will throw you the hell out of the country.”He went on to add that in prison “we have to take care of them.”“Who the hell wants to take care of them?” Trump asked the crowd. “You know, the jail stuff is wonderful, but we have to pay for it, right?”Again, the audience—made up largely of local police, and NOT immigration officials—laughed and applauded.
And what would a Trump speech to police be without some standard-level racism about Chicago?“What the hell is going on in Chicago?” Trump asked the laughing crowd at one point during his remarks, before pivoting to Baltimore, another city that’s been wracked by racist policing.The crowd went wild.Recommended StoriesTrump Endorsed Police Brutality to a Room Full of Cops, and They Loved ItFox News Is Super Excited That Trump Is Letting Cops Use Military Weapons on ProtestersFeds Reportedly Warned Cops That Charlottesville Would Be Violent and They Still Did NothingAbout the authorRafi SchwartzRafi SchwartzNews reporter, Splinter.

Hey there!
The answer is A. That slavery was still allowed in a free nation.
One of the things the colonists fought for was freedom. Freedom of speech, freedom of religion, and freedom of the press along with other things.
However, for hundreds of thousands of slaves torn away from their homes, they had none of these freedoms. They were considered inferior and not people.
A paradox is a statement that seems absurd of self-contradictory, which this statement very much is. If the U.S. is a free nation, then why do hundreds of thousands of people living there have no freedoms, stolen from them by the very people who advocated for their own freedom?

Thi question is incomplete. Here´s the complete question.
The 2013 case of Windsor v. United States in the Second Circuit Court of Appeals employed ___ in holding that the Defense of Marriage Act held no legitimate state interest and thus overturned it.
Answer: intermediate scrutiny
Explanation:
In United States v. Windsor, the Second Circuit Court of Appeals confirmed the lower court's decision that Section 3 of DOMA was unconstitutional.
The court found that, since homosexuals had been historically subjected to discrimination, they could be considered as a group that falls under a "quasi-suspect classification", and therefore intermediate scrutiny could be applied.
DOMA was deemed unconstitutional under the equal protection guarantees of the Fifth Amendment because it didn´t pass that test.
Hello there!
President Wilson was one of the signers of the Versailles peace treaty in 1919. This treaty ended World War I. President Woodrow Wilson wanted to establish a series of idealistic policies (The Fourteen Points) that included democracy, free trade, and self-determination of states. Instead, he actually got the forced reduction of German Territories, Colonies, and Armed Forces, among a series of interventionistic policies.
Have a nice day!
