Trump's Big Ugly Bill gave DHS $170 billion to ramp up its mass deportations.

That's at least $116 million A DAY to burn.

So what does Kristi Noem do with that kind of money?

Buy a private fleet of deportation jets, of course.

Trying to guess now how many sitting Supreme Court justices want to attend Trump rallies and would if they thought they could get away with it. I think my answer is five. It’s definitely not less than four.
Emil Bove Will Always Be a Trump Rallygoer First
Trump demands loyalty from his judicial nominees. As Emil Bove demonstrated on Tuesday, his nominees are very comfortable with displaying that loyalty in public.

There is perhaps nothing more "on brand" for Trump than using all of the power of the US government to coerce a sovereign, democratic nation into releasing someone accused of raping children and trafficking women.

Elections have consequences. A man like this never belonged near the levers of power. Not the first time. And certainly not this second time when everything was knowable. We are trapped in a tragedy and must fight our way out.
