The tragedy of the Biden administration is it did not have to be a blip and interregnum in the Long Trump Era, but thanks to choices made, largely his own, it will at best be remembered as an attempt to govern without doing politics, a failure compounded by his disastrous support for genocide abroad

So the new reporting is that DHS has decided to go back to a primary focus on targeted enforcement that existed before the late May orders from Stephen Mille to ramp up numbers or else.

Quite frankly, I’ll believe it when I see it. And also at this point the public struggles to tell the difference.
really don't see how they're going to manage to hit the Miller quota

Things we learn:

1. Bovino's existence is the result of chain migration, which MAGA wants to ban

2. His family arrived legally under an immigration law MAGA wants to repeal

3. His father killed a woman while driving drunk, a crime for which MAGA aims to deport immigrants

And much more. Read it.
Greg Bovino’s the star of Trump’s deportation show. We trace his roots.
As a boy, the Hollywood movie “The Border" set the course for his life. He couldn’t believe the Border Patrol agents in the movie were the bad guys. Now that he’s in charge of deportation efforts caus...

Notice the pattern: help a narrow group loudly, hurt everyone else quietly. Tariffs help a few steel workers but raise prices for every firm using steel. Tax cuts favor the rich while squeezing social programs. Politically noisy wins, economically costly losses.

It's heartening the leadership firewall against any talk of impeachment is breaking down, because it's so delusionally out of touch with reality. Either you mean what you say about the current anti-constitutional crime spree or you don't, and if you do, impeachment is the unavoidable implication.

White House reporters can no longer stay silent or supine when Trump attacks a colleague as “piggy,” “nasty” or “obnoxious.”

And they can do it by asking, as many times as it takes, another version of the question that triggered him in the first place.

When @dfriedman.bsky.social discovered a Goodreads page tied to the email of a top Pentagon official featuring “Asian wife sharing” books and other pornographic works, he did what any reporter would do: ask the Pentagon questions.

The very next day, a threatening email from Jack Posobiec arrived.
I asked the Pentagon about Pete Hegseth's mentor. Then the threats started.
