Proving that even Halloween isn't immune from the political division our country is デンマーク ポルノ映画 jkcurrently embroiled in, an Idaho school district has issued an apology after it faced stiff backlash to pictures of staffers in pro-Trump, anti-Immigrant costumes for the holiday.
In one photo, several staffers are lined up forming a brick wall with Trump's famous "Make America Great Again" phrase displayed, a reference to Trump's long-promised border wall. Another photo featured several staffers dressed in sombreros, ponchos, and fake exaggerated mustaches, a racist stereotype of Mexicans.

On Saturday, Middleton School District Superintendent Josh Middleton announced that the staff members identified in the photos have been placed on administrative leave. Supt. Middleton had also previously offered an apology on the district's Facebook page, but that video is no longer available as the district's entire page has been deleted.
The Idaho Statesman, though, grabbed a capture of the video.
In the video, Middleton says, “Do I think there was a malicious intent in this poor decision? No, I don’t,” he said. “Was there a poor judgment involved?"
He later adds, "We are better than this. We embrace all students. We have a responsibility to teach and reach all students — period.”

The controversy also follows a blow-up around Megyn Kelly's complete ineptness when it comes to the racist overtones of white people wearing blackface as part of a costume, proving that even as America creeps toward progress, some people seem hell-bent on staying rooted firmly in our country's racist past.
