On Thursday, the prominent immigrant rights group NumerosUSA said it would make an exception to its traditional stance on deportation and support the "expedient and necessary deportation" of Attorney General Jeff Sessions.
The announcement comes at a time when the AG has been making more bad decisions than normal.
NumerosUSA has been a longstanding opponent of forced deportation. Executive Director Sven McDougall said the new exception proved the group was not "just a bunch of ideologues."
"We have strong principles, but we're also reasonable," McDougall told The Face Palm in explaining the new exception. "Some people really are just bad hombres."
As for a possible host country, the group floated Japan as a possibility, noting that their immigration policies would likely be to the right of Sessions' wildest dreams.
That said, experts aren't sure how Japan would feel about such an arrangement. US-Japanese are already under some pressure after Trump applied new tariffs and has publicly threatened to make peace with North Korea. Adding Sessions to the list could well be the last straw.
