Can we all agree that our country did just fine the first 225 years of its existence without the Department of Homeland Security and would do just fine again without it?

ICE using the same ruse that Ted Bundy used to kidnap people should tell you something.
CCTV footage appears to show DHS agents posing as people having car trouble in order to lure a target out of his house before arresting them. The target comes out and starts helping them before 3 vehicles surround the scene. The car "experiencing" trouble then drives off with them.

May all sentient beings enjoy happiness and the causes of happiness, May they be free from suffering and the causes of suffering,
May they never be separated from the great happiness which is devoid of suffering,
and May they dwell in the great equinimity which is free from attachment and aversion.

BREAKING: We secured another court order blocking the Trump-Vance admin’s unlawful immigration raids at houses of worship.

This ruling restores essential safeguards to religious freedom, and protects people of faith from ICE intrusion.

When you’ve got THIS administration admitting that ICE lied under oath, the video evidence has to be catastrophic.
