Trump Doesn’t Want Dark-Skinned Pinoys As Immigrants To U.S.

WASHINGTON, D.C. (The Adobo Chronicles, Washington Bureau) – The New York Times (NYT) is reporting that President Donald Trump on Wednesday balked at an immigration deal that would include protections for people from Haiti and African countries. He wanted to know at a White House meeting why he should accept immigrants from “shithole countries” rather than people from places like Norway.

What the NYT is not reporting is that Trump mentioned Filipinos in a one-on-one conversation with The Adobo Chronicles after that White House meeting.

AC caught up with Trump on board Air Force One enroute to Las Vegas, Nevada.

We asked him about his thoughts on undocumented Filipinos now in the United Sates.

”I love the Filipinos,” Trump said, “but unfortunately, I can only allow fair-skinned Pinoys to avail of my immigration compromise. We need to start making America look like America.”

This could explain Trump’s earlier White House comment about Norway vs. Haiti and Africa.

As for TNT’s (undocumented Filipinos in America), we encourage you to continue using your skin whitening products to increase your chances for Trump’s path to U.S. citizenship.

Donald Trump Seeks to Disqualify U.S. Figure Skating Team Members Bound For Winter Olympics

WASHINGTON, D.C. (The Adobo Chronicles, Washington Bureau) – U.S. President Donald Trump continues to send mixed messages to the American people in as far as his immigration policy is concerned.

After public statements saying that 260,000 Salvadoran and 24,000 Haitian nationals now living in the United States must leave, he recently indicated that he was willing to consider a compromise that would allow undocumented immigrants like the Dreamers (those who were brought to the U.S. as kids by their undocumented parents) to pursue a path towards citizenship.

But now, after the U.S. Olympic figure skating team members were announced, Trump has sent yet another confusing message: skaters that do not look like Americans must be disqualified from representing the U.S. at the upcoming Winter Olympics in South Korea.

About half of the U.S. figure skating team members are of Asian descent.

”We have to show the world that we are Americans,” Trump told The Adobo Chronicles, “and we cannot have foreign-looking skaters standing on the medal stands while the ‘Star-spangled Banner’ is being played.”

Jose, can you see?

First And Last Christmas At The Trump White House!

December 24, 2017 Pol Pinoy Leave a comment

WASHINGTON, D.C. (The Adobo Chronicles, Washington Bureau)- Melanie Trump went overboard decorating The White House for Donald’s first Christmas. But it’s also going to be their last.

Consistent with the President’s crusade to reverse many of the Obama administration’s policies — from Obamacare to DACA to Transgender bathrooms — he has signed an Executive Order on the eve of Christmas 2017 that would all but end the festive holiday at The White House.

The E.O. stipulates that effective on Christmas 2018, The White House will no longer put up any Christmas decorations.

”I am the President of all Americans — Christians, Jews and Muslims alike — so in fairness to all, I am abolishing the Christmas tradition at the White House,” Trump told The Adobo Chronicles.

We also asked him if he would abolish the annual Presidential Turkey pardon during Thanksgiving. His response: “I’m thinking about it!”

So, say it while you can: Merry Christmas!
