What's particularly wild about this is it's unclear to me whether a single ICE agent has even been *injured* under Trump 2.0 by a protester.
If one had been, wouldn't the White House be talking about it nonstop?

Trump nominated a legit white nationalist to a top post at the State Department. I asked him some basic questions about his belief in the “erasure of white culture”. Watch this embarrassing, fumbling answer. Like he has never before been asked to explain his views.

Alito is also the most partisan justice on the bench—yes, more so than Thomas. He sees polls sagging for Republicans and will be worried about Democrats taking the Senate in 2026. He always does what's best for the Republican Party. He knows the safest choice is to step down before the midterms.
