WASHINGTON, USA — Who would have thought that a top level immigrant from one of President Donald Trump’s “shithole” countries, would be placed so high up the food chain in the US legal system with enough power, office and clout to curb some of Trump’s wildest and most fanciful orders? Who is that person you ask? His name is Karl Racine, the Haitian-American attorney general for the District of Columbia.
Racine is a Haitian-born American citizen who emigrated from Haiti when he was about three years old. He attended the Ivy League University of Pennsylvania for his undergraduate degree before going to the University of Virginia to take up law, and also was on their basketball team where he excelled and helped U-Penn win the Ivy League title twice.

It is a long established fact that a reader will be distracted by the readable content of a page when looking at its layout. The point of using Lorem Ipsum is that it has a more-or-less normal distribution of letters, as opposed to using ‘Content here, content here’, making it look like readable English. Many desktop publishing packages and web page editors now use Lorem Ipsum as their default model text, and a search for ‘lorem ipsum’ will uncover many web sites still in their infancy.
