How much more dystopian can it get? Hang onto your hat!

The US Department of Homeland Security is reportedly considering an “out-of-the-box” pitch to participate in a television gameshow that would have immigrants compete to obtain US citizenship.

Department spokesperson Tricia McLaughlin described the pitch to the New York Times as a “celebration of being an American” and said the show would include challenges based on American traditions.

In a statement, McLaughlin said: “We need to revive patriotism and civic duty in this country, and we’re happy to review out-of-the-box pitches. This pitch has not received approval or rejection by staff.”

Yeah this is that sociopath Christy Nome. Out of all of the evil monsters in the administration, she's the worst of them. Worse even than Steven Miller, which is impressive because that guy literally has no soul. No lights on behind those eyes. You seen that clip of him turning off his fake smile on camera? I'm not even sure he's human.
