ICE is the January 6 insurrectionists all over again. Only instead of attacking law enforcement, they are pretending to *be* law enforcement. And instead of just terrorizing at the Capitol, they are doing it EVERYWHERE.

So, to be clear, Musk has now admitted he funded a man he believes to be a pedophile to be president.
And Trump has now admitted that he gave access to high level government secrets to a man he believes to be a big time drug addict.
This should be *the* story on the Sunday shows tomorrow.

Let's be clear about what's happening right now: Trump and Musk are dismantling the Social Security Administration from the inside.
It has nothing to do with efficiency — it's about sabotaging Social Security while they rig the government for billionaires like themselves.
