Just information..
Thirty-seven percent of voters approve of the way Donald Trump is handling his job as president, while 56% disapprove. This compares to Quinnipiac University’s January 14, 2026 poll when 40% approved and 54% disapproved.

We only want the good immigrants who study hard and don't commit crimes, unless they try to take little Brayleigh's (28 ACT, 1350 SAT) God-given slot at an Ivy away by being smarter, in which case Korematsu didn't go far enough

one of my strongest beliefs is that we're in our situation right now bc some of the most prominent talking heads (e.g. joe rogan, andrew schulz) are learning about politics in their 40s and 50s, instead of their teens and early 20s, and we have to go along for the ride as they learn basic things

Abolish ICE.
There’s no reforming it.
There’s no compromise.
There’s only one way to rein in ICE’s terror campaign. Abolish it.

this feels like desperation. the leaks from the court are the product of its unpopularity and internal strife, not the other way around. you can't save your public image by shutting the public out.

There’s a difference between being arrested by police and being “arrested” by ICE which seems to me to be what this *entire* struggle is about so I think that’s what’s leading to this debate over “be loud, be known, don’t be afraid” and “stop these assholes but don’t get caught or identified”.

The thing where ICE parks masked men in school lots is something I would not have believed unless I saw it with my own two eyes. They do it constantly. It’s purely a terror tactic and they’ve done it to schools over the region. Our schools are collapsing - often at 50% attendance or less.
Columbia Heights (Liam's school district) cancelled school today because of a credible bomb threat at Liam's elementary and multiple ICE vehicles parking in the high school staff parking lot at 6:15am.

I think what we have overlooked that has made society go haywire is that social pressures are the single strongest force acting on human beings, and the human brain doesn’t really distinguish between real-life, media-sourced, and internet social pressures. Our phones and feeds are pressure cookers

I just got tear gassed along with thousands of union members, many of whom had their families with them. Federal agents at the ICE facility tear gassed children. We must abolish ICE, DHS, and we must have prosecutions. I expect to see enforcement of our city code prohibiting the use of tear gas.

the arrest of journalists in minneapolis, including don lemon, is more evidence that the only move the administration knows how to make is to use force, and does not know how to respond when that force is met with defiance and indifference.

So the FBI with Gabbard took old ballots and they will “recount them” and say “a ha! Trump won!!” and there will be the dumbest news cycle in world history.
Dems should make it clear to participating agents that breaking the law puts them in jail.

yes, there are no real signs of any big change in DHS activity here yet. In Chicago there really was after Bovino left and they basically ended "Midway Blitz" not so here so far.
