Bondi just said DHS is helping rid us of criminals from the Sinaloa Cartel, but she failed to mention the asylum she gave to family members of the Sinaloa Cartel. She also said we're ridding the country of MS-13, but failed to mention the asylum she's giving to MS-13 leaders in the Abrego case.

(🚨) WAIT... WHAT??

Agents of Red Sea co-conspirators and Trump business partners MBS, MBZ, and el-Sisi were secretly in the White House as Trump agreed to go to war with their enemy Iran?

How is this not the big news right now? How is this not bigger than every other story major media is covering?

IMPORTANT

USC law students have started a hotline for people to call when they have an immigration-related court hearing but don't want to show up in person for fear of being arrested/detained by ICE outside the courthouse.

At 9:00 AM this morning the entire Pentagon got an email inviting them to a “Christian prayer and worship service” from the Office of the Secretary of Defense. A Cabinet member directly violating the Establishment Clause of the First Amendment.

Sounds like Gabbard fired them for telling the truth.

Not much “intelligence” going on here…

Gabbard fires intel officials who oversaw memo contradicting White House claims on Venezuelan gang
Democratic lawmakers criticized the firings, suggesting they were punishment for providing information that didn’t support the administration’s agenda.

I stood on the House floor today to sound the alarm: HB 113 is a quiet coup. It erases legislative intent, silences agency expertise, and hands power to far-right courts.

This is Project 2025 in action, right here in Texas.

We must not obey in advance. We must stand in opposition. (1/2) #txlege

If South Africa is a sovereign nation, how are we able to send our own planes we paid for to transport white Afrikaners to the U.S., but simultaneously unable to send a plane to return Abrego Garcia et al?

Oh…

So that guy from The Real World, Transportation Secretary Sean Duffy, rescheduled his wife’s flight out of Newark to LaGuardia?

If this guy doesn’t have the confidence in the FAA or the airport that’s under his control, then he shouldn’t be employed anymore.

Kamala Harris: The courage of Americans who are speaking out to say, it is not ok to violate court orders. Saying it is not ok to detain and disappear American citizens or anyone without due process. The courage of judges to uphold the rule of law in the face of those who would jail them.
