"The largest Muslim civil rights organization in America has said the President’s post puts those specific children, at that named school, in real danger, and they are right, so we blurred them, because that is what adults do when a photograph has somebody’s baby in it.

60 seconds. The President of the United States commands the Secret Service, the FBI, the entire security apparatus of the most powerful nation on earth, and a phone. He could not find the 60 seconds. Because he was never trying to show you a graduation. He was showing his people where to aim."
