Congresswoman Ilhan Omar's son was pulled over by ICE and forced to prove he is an American.
Two options:
1) ICE deliberately targeted him.
2) ICE is stopping all non-White people without any probable cause and forcing them to prove they are citizens.
Hard to say which option is scarier.

US Citizen, with a valid drivers license, is traumatized by ICE at a checkpoint if FL.
Her crime, per ICE — she didn’t roll down her window far enough.
All of this…because they couldn’t be bothered to check her ID.
What are we doing? Why are these gestapo tactics being allowed to continue?

What did minimum wage get you each decade? In 2025, it buys you nothing but exhaustion.
There’s not a single place in America where a full-time minimum-wage worker can afford even a modest 2-bedroom. Not one. That’s the economy we’re living in. #TrumpAffordabilityCrisis

Another stupid question, sorry.
If you're trying to flip a boat that's loaded with drugs, wouldn't the boat be upside-down? If so, how can Cotton tell it was loaded with drugs?
Also, if you're in the open sea and your boat is overturned, are you going to try to right it?

Q: What did you see in the second strike?
Cotton: "I saw two survivors trying to flip a boat -- loaded with drugs, bound for the United States -- back over, so they could stay in the fight."

In 1961 I started working full time for minimum wage. I had to budget, but I paid my rent, car payment, school fees and books, utilities and groceries. Who can do that now? #TrumpAffordabilityCrisis

As Trump pardons a real estate developer who’d been charged with corruption by his own Justice Department, an unsettling fact appears obvious:
Trump made a right-turn at *abiding* corruption and is now, though his pardon abuses, effectively *encouraging* corruption. www.ms.now/rachel-maddo...

With yet another controversial pardon, Trump derails his own DOJ’s corruption case
There’s a fine line between a president using pardons to abide corruption and using them to encourage corruption.

Tyson is closing a Nebraska plant that employs 3,200 workers in order to “right-size” its business.
The meatpacking giant paid its CEO $22.7M last year, 525x its median employee's pay.
It also spent $196M in stock buybacks to reward shareholders.
Textbook corporate greed.
