When the detained and deported aren’t people who have committed crimes in the US, just people trying to make a new life despite an intentionally underfunded immigrant processing system, what’s it got to do with “Homeland Security” when even mass shootings are handled as police matters?

Anyone else wondering where “Homeland Security” got these masked, gun toters so eager to strip people from their families and employers, what some call “kidnapping?”
Anyone else think there are more than a few convicted, and pardoned, 1/6 rioters in the ranks?

Cato has published my comprehensive review of the ~240 Venezuelans the US government renditioned 2 months ago to Salvador’s notorious prison. We identified FIFTY who came legally, never violated any immigration law, but are imprisoned at the US government’s request and at US taxpayer expense.

Serious question: can the president just spend all his time in office suing people and then use the litigation as a "legal" way of accepting bribes via "settlements"?

The theory didn’t work out as they hoped, which is one of the reasons there have been no trials, let alone convictions, there 23 years later. For the a complete telling of this story, read “The Terror Courts” by @jessbravin.bsky.social

1, Mountains of money are thrown at deportations by the "we must thin out the federal bureaucracy" administration. What if it had been available, as in Trump-sabotaged bill, for border security and more immigration judges to avoid applicants having to wait upwards of a year or more to be processed?

Looks like Democrats will end up ~7500 votes short of winning the House majority across three districts. That's the difference between having the power of the purse, subpoenas etc — or not — in a nation of 330+ million.

A Trump-appointed judge just struck down a Biden rule expanding overtime pay to 4 million working people.
It's really surprising how little media coverage this has received. Trump faced no real questions about this issue during the campaign. 1/

Remember the right-wing frenzy over “Rich Men North of Richmond”? Well, this ruling exposes Trump-MAGA hypocrisy on the working class—and reveals a big media failure.
