BRENNAN: What percentage of those you have in custody have committed crimes?
NOEM: 70% of them
B: It's not 70%
N: Yes it is. You guys pick and choose numbers
B: Your agency says 47% have criminal convictions
N: Wrong again. We'll get you the correct numbers
B: Well, that's from your agency

Will the Dems act forcefully and decisively to rein in ICE? We will know when we see if they refuse to approve funding for DHS.
The deadline is January 30th. The clock is ticking.

“It was horrifying and disbelieving to see it again,” Geiger Bonnheim said. “Does history change?”

Todd Blanche is helping cover up a murder. Our federal government is run by monsters.
BREAM: Is the FBI investigating the ICE agent who shot Renee Good?
BLANCHE: What happened has been reviewed by millions of Americans bc it was recorded. We investigate when it's appropriate. That is not the case here. We are not going to bow to pressure. So no, we are not investigating.
