#ICE isn't deporting immigrants. Biden deported more than Trump. ICE is kidnapping them to squirrel them away in a labyrinth of detention centers, used to funnel money into the pockets of contractor cronies of Trump.

This is the correct way to police ICE. And it drives the far right nuts. Good.

remember that little twelve hour window a few days ago where the axios and politico brunchlord press once again helped project the idea that this guy was sensitive to criticism and had seen reason?
Just a fundamentally evil, malevolent person. Rotten to the very core.

No arrests of the ICE thugs who murdered Alex Pretti, Renee Good, or Keith Porter. No arrests of anyone in the Epstein Files. But they arrested Don Lemon because of his journalism.

Leaving CNN is what enabled Don Lemon to be good enough at his job to warrant arrest by the fascist state. The anchors there live lives of sheltered, privileged wealth. The biggest confrontation of their day is a performative argument with Scott Jennings.

I don't think people understand that if you shut down the government, ICE and CBP do NOT shut down. They're funded by supplemental money from the BBB. That's why dems are separating the DHS funding bill and asking for restrictions. I want them to demand a rescission of that funding or shut DHS down
