So, ICE is getting a $150 Billion budget. A few questions. 1) will they swear allegiance to the constitution or to the President? 2) will they get nifty Brown Shirts to wear? How about a special unit emblem to wear on their arms, maybe something taken from Native American culture? Thoughts?

“The New York Times collaborated with a white nationalist eugenicist hacker and agreed to keep his identity a secret to publish a Zohran Mamdani hit piece” is a way bigger story than “18 year old Zohran Mamdani ticked ‘African American’ on his Columbia application because he was a citizen of Uganda”

I don’t think anyone is prepared for what they just did w/ ICE.

This is not a simple budget increase. It is an explosion - making ICE bigger than the FBI, US Bureau of Prisons, DEA,& others combined.

It is setting up to make what’s happening now look like child’s play. And people are disappearing.

I'm sorry, but doesn't "autonomous Drone swarms" that "evolve to deal with new threats" sound like a BAD idea?

1️⃣ The GOP’s scam is clear: fake a Social Security fraud crisis to gut it. Vance’s “40% fraud” claim? Total nonsense. They’re laying the groundwork to cut benefits by labeling everyday Americans as criminals.

Market manipulation, anyone?

And what do the spineless, wimpy Republicans do about it? Absolutely nothing.

Convicted Felon Donald Trump is a criminal. Full stop.

This past week, the Chinese learned

1) exactly where Trump's pain points are;

2) how much to squeeze them before he flinches;

and

3) how little America's partners and allies want to help this president.

Highly useful information.

It's critical for everyone to remember what an Executive Order is. It is the President communicating orders to members of the executive branch. Policies to pursue, actions to take, etc. They are not laws. They are not close to being laws. They are formalized memos to employees. That's all.

The lives of American troops - and every American life - depends on the people in charge of our government taking their responsibilities seriously. But again and again, including with the incompetence that came to light today, they are demonstrating the opposite.
