For ICE, this is a feature, not a bug. They are terrorists.
20 ARMED men bust into your home. They claim they’ve got a search warrant.
They make you stand in the rain w/your 3 daughters in their underwear.
They seize your phones, laptops, your cash life savings.
The suspects listed on the warrant? They don’t live there anymore.

"our view is that the formula the administration relied on has no foundation in either economic theory or trade law"
Trump tariffs based on massive error, conservative think tank says
The error over-inflates tariff rates by about a factor of four, AEI's economists say.

While the market reacts to the biggest tax increase on Americans in over 60 years, Trump announces his $5m gold card for rich foreigners, meets with Saudis at his resort and takes the day off to go golfing. Are we great again?

RFK jr just hired a discredited anti-vax activist with no medical background, disciplined for practicing medicine without a license to lead a study in links between vaccines and autism. Halted all US AID vaccines and grants that helped fight the measles outbreak at home. Make America Sick Again.

Just horrific. How can Americans be ok with this?
“One young man sobbed when a guard pushed him to the floor. He said, ‘I’m not a gang member. I’m gay. I’m a barber.’ I believed him. *** He “began to whimper,” as his head was roughly shaved, “folding his hands in prayer as his hair fell.” He “asked for his mother & cried as he was slapped again.”

Call your Senators! Democrats shouldn't vote for a CR in which Dems had not input.
I think some in the Senate have convinced themselves that the backlash to folding will be limited to “the left” and therefore ignorable.
Those people are deeply and profoundly misreading the moment and the stakes.
Virtually every swing district House Dem walked the plank to vote NO for a reason.

NOW Senator Scott is concerned with "waste, fraud and abuse". Scott was CEO of HCA when it was convicted of defrauding Medicare, Medicaid and Military health care - TriCare, resulting in a fraud settlement of $1.7 Billion and 14 felony convictions. He walked away with $300M in stock options.
TAPPER: How can you look at experts in nuclear weapons being fired then rehired and think, 'Oh, this process is working exactly as it should be'?
RICK SCOTT: I'm a business guy. You do the best you can every day. What they're trying to do is rein in government. Are they gonna be perfect? No.
