Is Tim Scott really acting surprised Trump is racist now? Actually I notice he’s blaming “the White House” so his hero Trump can fix everything for him.

They’re deporting US Army veterans.
They say if they’re undocumented, they must go.
Such a selfish group of human beings.
They consider undocumented immigrants “good enough” to go to war and possibly die for the country, but not good enough to avoid deportation.

My law firm intervened in every case DOJ has filed to gain access to states' sensitive voting data. So far we have won several and lost none. But this is going to be a long fight for free and fair elections.

NEW: A federal judge in Oregon issued a sweeping rebuke of the Justice Department’s nationwide push to seize state voter rolls, ruling that the department can no longer be presumed to be acting in good faith and warning that its conduct threatens voters and states’ rights.
Federal judge rules DOJ can ‘no longer’ be trusted in voter roll crusade
The judge pointed to a letter from Bondi to Minnesota that tied federal immigration enforcement to demands for voter data as the smoking gun.

If this proposal happens there will be ZERO reforms to Border Patrol or ICE. Nothing will ever change. Once something like this is agreed to, that will be the end of all negotiations as far as Republicans are concerned. Dems will get no reforms on immigration enforcement.

When you agree to pass 5 of 6 appropriations bills, then you later agree to pass funding for everything that is in the 6th bill except for one agency (ICE) that has already been prefunded in a previous bill, you are giving up every bit of leverage you have and selling out.
