It’s essential that the parties cooperate on the ICE funding bill, which will give dedicated ICE agents the tools they need to patrol our communities.

I'm genuinely curious how many Chinese & Russian intel ops are now just people walking around saying loudly "Oh man we are so screwed now that America is strong again" & writing memos titled "How Trump stole the world from us" that get accidentally left on tables at shops frequented by US spies.
Now, he’s picking a fight with the UK.

Incidentally (bc I read that whole damn NYT interview transcript twice), when they asked him abt corruption, they did not ask him about his OWN corruption, but only that of his spawn.
NYT: Trump has monetized his return to office in a way with out precedent and personally profited by $1.4 billion over his first year: "We know this number to be an underestimate because some of his profits remain hidden from public view. And they continue to grow."

The president took an oath to serve the American people. Instead, he’s focused his second term on enriching himself and his family.

New — I wrote about ChongLy Scott Thao, the elderly Hmong American wrongly arrested and forced out of his home by ICE in his underwear during the punishing Minnesota winter, what witnesses saw, and DHS's racist claim that he fit the description of another Asian man they were looking for.

My story:

This isn’t about deporting “the worst of the worst.” It’s about deliberately sowing fear and chaos in cities that oppose the Trump regime
