Yikes. “An email sent from the Justice Department to all immigration court employees this week included a link to” the white nationalist site VDare. buzzfeednews.com/article/hameda…

Other promotions of VDare in recent years by Republicans include the 2016 Republican National Convention, ICE senior adviser Jon Feere, and (of course) Steve King. mediamatters.org/vdare/rep-dave…
