I don’t think anyone is prepared for what they just did w/ ICE.
This is not a simple budget increase. It is an explosion - making ICE bigger than the FBI, US Bureau of Prisons, DEA,& others combined.
It is setting up to make what’s happening now look like child’s play. And people are disappearing.

Chief Russian propagandist Margarita Simonyan says that with the help of Donald Trump and JD Vance, Russia is defeating the United States every single day. She also says that Trump's moves on Greenland are just his efforts to imitate Vladimir Putin, are just more evidence of Russia's victory.

The biggest cage match ever will be between Musk and Trump. Elon will try to implement AI in a manner that automates much of what Trump is now trying to control.
Trump will have no understanding of what is going on and will have to turn to the AI oligarchs to support him in this battle.

Letters went out to federal workers this morning stating they were fired due to poor performance. However, all employees had been rated as “exceptional” performers by their supervisors. Please keep these records and pursue wrongful termination claims. Let the lawsuits begin.

This is more like it! We’re in a constitutional crisis and it’s good to see more Democrats deciding to fight. If you live in Delaware, let Sen. @bluntrochester.senate.gov know that you’ve got her back.
