So they didn’t like the ad. Let’s just post Reagan’s 5 min speech against tariffs as it appears on YouTube.

Over and over. On all platforms (some of y’all are still on X).

"It’s still unclear why a teenager, who as another one of his attorneys noted has "no criminal history anywhere in the world", remains caged.

The rich and powerful, on the other hand, are well aware that their freedom can be bought"

In Trump’s America, wealthy criminals are pardoned, poor innocents are arrested
While ICE patrols court houses for law-abiding immigrants, Trump's friends get a free pass.

This is like asking the human trafficker to get a conscience. Stop the money flow, and the problem will be solved.
Contradicting The Trump administration, the VP of El Salvador makes clear to Sen. Van Hollen that the decision to release - or not release - Mr. Abrego Garcia is up to the United States.

"Once you solve this problem over there, we are ready to follow whatever will be indicated."

Trump’s ICE quotas and for-profit prison companies are creating a hell on earth for some of our most vulnerable people. Why is ICE detaining children? And why do half of the adults held in ICE detention facilities have no criminal record?

Okay, But Why is ICE Detaining Children?
Donald Trump promised to be “tough” on immigration on the campaign trail, vowing to “launch the largest deportation program of criminals in American history.” “Criminals,” he said. So why is ICE detaining children? And why do half of the adults held in ICE detention facilities have no criminal record? In New York, a mom and her three kids—including a third grader—were arrested by ICE and shipped off to a facility in Texas. In Louisiana, ICE deported a four-year-old with cancer to Honduras, despite the child being a US citizen. Across America, families live in fear of separation, even those who are following the legal pathways and completing all of their required paperwork and check-ins. And if that wasn’t bad enough, the conditions in ICE detention facilities is atrocious: crowded cells, freezing concrete floors, water from the toilet, and constant dehumanizing treatment from guards.

CBS News quietly updated their story. I still don’t understand how WaPo could’ve reported it first if I was the one who “uncovered” it, but I guess it’s an improvement.

AOC: Trump said they were only going to go after the “criminals” however their position is that everyone undocumented is a criminal.…

On top of that, they’re not even just going after undocumented people, they are making people undocumented by revoking legal status.
