No one has been righter on the political impact of Trump’s immigration terror campaign than Elliott. When know-it-all pundits were demanding Dems shut up about Kilmar Abrego Garcia, he pushed back with hard data and has been utterly vindicated every day since. Dems need to listen to Elliott.
YouGov is out with a new poll after ICE killed another person in Minnesota today. Abolishing ICE is now +5 among all adults, and **+12 among independents**

I am seeing quite a few nurses calling for a nationwide strike over the killing of Alex Pretti. I think we are seeing one of the largest workforces being radicalized before our very eyes.

Pretti clearly did not brandish his gun. Which means the government is saying he was killed for legally exercising his right to carry.
It’s as clear-cut a violation of the Second Amendment as I can possibly imagine. And we’re about to see the bulk of the gun rights crowd defend his murder.

DHS claims the car being chased rammed the ICE vehicle. The video shows the opposite.
📌 A father and son, a US citizen, are chased. The teen is beaten and seriously injured. The father is deported.
DHS lied. The video tells the truth. Excellent reporting by Antonia Hylton.

Seeing them reunite with their families reminded me this is their home.

7 Democrats voted in favor:

Massie voted No

Might not have passed if every Democrat voted No, but leadership wasn't whipping them to do so

If this is accurate, Good was killed by a bullet fired after there was any conceivable argument Agent Ross was in the path of her vehicle, which means there was no legal justification for using deadly force. But DOJ says there’s no reason to investigate.
