Honestly very impressed by Newsmax, the Washington Times, and the Washington Examiner.
They deserve credit precisely because they’re standing up for journalistic principle notwithstanding their ideological inclination.

An August 2025 analysis found that 65% of people taken into ICE detention in fiscal year 2025 had no criminal convictions.
The same analysis indicated that over 93% of those booked into detention had NO conviction for a violent offense.
The criminal is HIM.

I have never seen so many public servants protest the mismanagement of a government. Trumpists will point to this as proof of the deep state, but the reality is that these are professionals who are desperately trying to get the public to understand how bad things are.

It seems rather unlikely that the conspiracy theorists who claimed that Hillary Clinton and a satanic cabal of elites operated an international child sex trafficking ring out of a DC pizza shop are just going to let the Epstein story fade away.

Another ICE "assault" case unravels. Border Patrol and ICE are arresting US citizens and then after they find out that they are US citizens, they are charging them with "assault" to justify their actions. This is clearly DHS policy at this point. We've seen it repeatedly now.

1. Trump's megabill will slash nutrition assistance for poor families, cause 17 million people to lose their health insurance, and add over $3 trillion to the deficit -- all to finance tax cuts for the rich.

American Police State: Congress has just authorized $170B for ICE (not $37.5B), more than the ENTIRE NATIONAL DEFENSE BUDGET for every country on the planet except China.🤮

Spot on. This is the clearest explanation I’ve seen. It ‘s relatable, and humanizes the issue in a way everyone can understand.
