    Over the years, as time passes by I have become to better understand myself and learn what captures and disappoints my attention. As a young boy I would think no books pertaining to school or gaining beneficial knowledge would ever interest me. As I read and learned about different cultures and heard mesmerizing stories of Prophets I became eager to read more along with interesting worldly based novels. Miraculous real life events and interesting action based novels are the only stories that grab my attention.

  • DAPA Case Study

    788 Words  | 2 Pages

    Section 553 of the Administrative Procedure Act (APA) generally requires a federal agency or branch to provide public notice and an opportunity for comment on any proposed rule and the president did not do this. Moreover, Nat’l Park Hospitality Ass’n v. Dep’t of Interior states that an agency action must be tentative to count as a general statement of policy. DAPA is not tentative at all. It was immediately implemented and states began granting Expanded-DACA permits to over 100,000 aliens in under three months. This has put a definite strain on the nation’s resources, especially finance-wise. So, putting in a nationwide injunction on these executive orders will help slow down the naturalization process and help the states adjust their finances

    Joseph Addison once said, “Words, when well chosen, have so great a force in them that a description often gives us more lively ideas than the sight of things themselves (416).” I like this quote because it shows the importance of words and how powerful and influential they can be. Illustrations are used the same way, they hold the attention of readers, communicate content of information, and give insight of a particular event. There are eight types of illustrations: compare/contrast, personal experiences, processes, facts, quotations, case studies, examples, and statistics. My main focus, however, will be on examples, facts, and quotes.

Trump also said during the signing at the Pentagon after the swearing-in of Defense Secretary James Mattis. ‘We don't want them here’” (Merica). Trump’s purpose of his plan is to eliminate radicals from entering the country, but in order to do that all people that live or come from that area must be prevented as

    Even before his presidency Donald Trump expressed, on more than one occasion, his disregard for Muslims and on more Muslims entering the United States. I don’t believe the president should abuse his power by trying to justify his personal vendetta as a national security issue. The right procedures should have been followed, this executive order did not go through the proper channels (through Congress) before it was signed into law. The necessary evidence to support his claims should have been provided. Also, citizens who would have been affected, legal immigrants whose family are now banned (unless they meet one the criteria for exemption/waiver) should have been given time to react (due process) to the new law instead of its immediate

    ...t before he is about to say something horrible. This is ironic because it is not expected. The speaker has just totally changed his tone. The biggest use of irony is situational irony. The whole proposal is absurd and the speaker knows it. He is proposing the idea to show the larger picture. That there is no solution to this problem, and no one has any useful ideas. The eating of babies is utterly outlandish which is precisely why he chose it. The speaker of this modest proposal uses irony to create a tension that helps to convey a certain message. That message is that even though this may be a totally outrageous proposal, no one can complain or judge until they have a proposal of their own.

  • Summary Of The Cartoon 'Gimme The Gold'

    Although, the cartoon draws from logos the most. For example, the author uses logos when depicting Trump as out of shape and hinting towards his lack of capability and aptitude by putting him in arm floats. One would logically deduct that he would be unable to win in the swimming race when competing against well-fit professionals who have a significant amount of experience swimming. This can be connected to the actual Trump’s lack of political experience and capability to be president in comparison to the other candidates in the author’s perspective. In the illustration, Trump also makes the irrational assumption that losing would mean that the race is rigged. The illustration implies that Trump’s statement, considering how unfit he is for the race, is ridiculous and reflects his
