Last week, we published a story detailing ICE's strategy for recruiting new officers, including targeting "gun rights" supporters and geo-fencing ads around gun shows.
Ex-ICE director told me: “That mentality you’re fostering tends to inculcate in people a certain aggressiveness"

Watched the first episode of Cashero. Lee Jun-Ho is so much fun in this. And I’m really intrigued by how exactly his powers work.

Man I cooked
Analysis of Eagles wins is always so funny because it is some variation of “They can’t keep relying on Saquon being special (which is why they signed him) and their o-line (built to be good on purpose) to win games. Eventually Jalen Hurts will need to throw the ball deep (which he did).”
