Deportations actually _increase_ housing prices because they shrink the construction industry.

ICE is stockpiling arms, including chemical weapons, guided missile warheads and explosive components. The spending dwarfs anything we've ever seen in the agency - a 700% increase.

Starting November 1st, SNAP benefits are being cut, leaving millions of people with limited or no access to food.
If you are able to help, help. Food banks also take cash donations, which allow them to fill the banks with what they know is most needed.

The "factual background" begins with something irrelevant and erroneous. Dallas is not in Oregon, and the Dallas shooting wasn't connected to any ICE protest.
If that's enough for the President to federalize a different state's National Guard and deploy them elsewhere, then the power is limitless.
