I’m praying for comfort for those grieving and strength for those still searching.
And I’m praying this administration makes good on every promise they’ve handed out —not just in headlines, but in actual help:vouchers, credits, shelter, food, water. #TexasFloods #DisasterRelief #AccountabilityNow

Where's the "i voted for this" crowd? Maybe spending time and energy on legislation that matters is important. It would have made a bigger difference than arguing about making schools hang the 10 commandments in classrooms.

Trump’s Big Ugly Bill sells out working families. Republicans in Congress are rushing to pass this bill, which slashes Medicaid and the ACA, ripping health care from 17 million people. In Texas alone, more than 1.6 million would lose health care coverage and nursing homes will be forced to shut down

ICE is largely not ICE - They are bounty-hunters.
Early in January the administration started contacting bounty-hunters offering them $1000-$1500 per immigrant.
I think what we keep seeing is likely a mix of bounty-hunters and militia.
It would explain outfits, masks, aggression, no badges
