[fill in the blank] Just Died!
Time

He often appeared on Carson. Which lead to a great bit of improv where Johnny returned from a break, (gone are the days when late night hosts had other people fill in) to find an item on his desk had been broken by Rickles the night before. He walked across the hall, (with bulky 70’s tv cameras trying keep up) to where Rickles was taping a sitcom, and confronted him about it. https://youtu.be/Mj2S2n64DeQ
I think only Carson could get away with such a stunt.

Beristain’s wife voted for President Trump in November and previously said she believed in the Republican’s immigration policies. In February, he ordered officials to be more aggressive in arresting and deporting those living in the U.S. illegally.

“I think our President is going to keep all the good people here,” she said in a March interview with WSBT. “He is not going to tear up families. I don’t think he wants to do that. He just wants to keep us safe."

Here is why this man was deported. The article says it but the op does not.

Beristain had a work permit, driver’s license, social security information, paid his taxes and was in the process of obtaining an immigrant visa, one of his attorneys, Jason Flora, told the news station. He had no criminal record.

Beristain during a family vacation in 2000 took a wrong turn to Niagara falls that put him past the Canadian border. When he tried to return to the country, officials denied him entrance and placed a deportation order on him, his 14-year-old daughter, Jasmine previously told the Daily News.

His wife was pregnant at the time, so he ignored the order. Beristain didn’t want to leave her alone, Helen said in a March interview.

Beristain’s deportation came on the same day attorneys filed a court document aimed at keeping Beristain in the country. The document claims he wasn’t given due process when he first received his deportation order in 2000. Beristain was deported before a judge had time to issue a ruling.

He wasn’t just targeted and returned for no good reason.

I wasn’t aware accidentally crossing the Canadian border, (which seems poorly marked as this seems to happen all the time) was a criminal act.

I wasn’t referring to that and you know it.

It’s 2017. They couldn’t look up all the info you posted above, and come the conclusion deporting him was of dubious value as he was in the pipeline to get a visa? Or did accidentally crossing the Canadian border 17 years ago make him a “bad hombre” by default?

There are plenty of reasons to loathe Trumpy without making crap up.

If he backs up his words, and takes some positive decisive action to rid the world of a fiend who uses chemical weapons on innocent people, I will applaud him for it.

So said the people who thought W. was justified for going into Iraq. And how long did we have people over there? Oh wait, we still do.

I didn’t mean invade Syria.

But that is what it means. Nature abhors a vacuum.

So we just let Assad do what he likes? We could at least find where he’s hiding his chemical weapons, and take those out. All these stealth bombers have to be good for something.

Ridding the world of the North Korean Kim dynasty doesn’t mean Korea will suddenly become a peaceful democratic state.

Well, if there’s a better way to keep them from perfecting an ICBM capable of reaching the west coast of the U.S., I’d love to hear it? We’re dealing with a guy who had his half(?) brother poisoned though.

I know the Phase II Enterprise ended up hanging at a Planet Hollywood restaurant, but what became of the other tv miniatures?

I think they only used the molds for the nacelles on the Planet Hollywood models.

Ok. The now long dead IDIC website stated it was the actual model made for the series. That was once the go to place for info on screen used Trek models.
