An Idaho superintendent has issued a public apology and placed 14 employees on paid administrative leave after staff at a public elementary school dressed up as Mexicans and a border wall for Halloween. WaPo. @emrosenberg
When dressing up for Halloween
beware of the national spleen
that lacks any humor
and sits like a tumor
upon the American scene.

The controversy is the latest in a rash of concerns that have flared across the country, as candidates in both parties have traded accusations about threats to ballot integrity amid multiple reports about voting irregularities. The issue has started to affect voter confidence, according to new polling, which shows that a majority of voters in both parties are deeply suspicious about the opposing party’s commitment to fair elections.

My ballot ain't safe anymore.
The hackers who work way offshore
have got it disguised
so it's compromised
and makes me vote for Michael Moore!

To repatriate its critics, the Saudi government has tried to lure them back or enlisted friendly regional governments to arrest them or even carried out brazen kidnappings in Europe. WaPo. @kfahim @LovedayM
Killing Saudi critics is easy as can be.
You stuff 'em in a basket, then skewer them promptly.
Or have a friendly nation put them in chains, toot suite.
Then hang 'em up to perish out in the glaring heat.
Rather than a critic, I'd be a camel there --
No one would try to shoot me and I'd get loving care.
