Why Abrego Garcia? Why now? Here’s why. Trump’s deportation numbers are actually less than Biden’s, even with all this noise. The high profile cruelty and defiance of court orders is a distraction tactic to cover up his low deportation numbers. With Trump it’s always a sleight of hand Ponzi scheme.

According to a source I have at the CIA, Director Radcliffe lied today under oath. Signal is absolutely not loaded on agency computers. As a matter of fact it’s specifically prohibited as an outside app. Skype is allowed for conference calls but not Signal. He’s lying. @markwarner.bsky.social
