Under the Desk News issued a video about the connection between real estate management companies and these "immigration" raids (The Chicago raid wasn't about immigration. Something far more sinister drove it.).

I decided to look up what's happening with propery management companies.

"Look, the President clearly has some kind of dementia" should be how Democrats begin every single comment to reporters these days.

Sen. PADILLA: This Justice Department fired a 15-year career prosecutor who put away sex traffickers and transnational terrorists. She was marched out of her office. Why? Because she had the audacity to remind Border Patrol that it should follow court orders.

Pam Bondi admits she spoke to Apple to "get the ICEBlock app taken down." Sounds an awful lot like coercion to suppress disfavored speech to me. A clear violation of the 1st Amendment.

The Portland War Zone isn't for everyone but at least the chaos is locally sourced.

A federal judge ruled that Trump is breaking the law with his nationalization. So the officers taking his orders know they are breaking the law too. Remember that because that will be part of the prosecution’s argument.

ICE will reportedly hire contractors to surveil social media platforms 24/7 to target people for deportations.

The information would then be funneled into an existing ICE database built by Palantir (founded by Trump ally Peter Thiel).

"The party of small government,” folks.

Tommy Tuberville on the 2020 census: "The Democrats were letting illegals come in for a different count. They obviously had a census going that was all rigged. The 2020 election basically was rigged."

(Believe it or not, Donald Trump was president in 2020.)

The subhed here is a master class in corporate journalism rewarding malfeasance via semantics

Bondi didn't valiantly fend something off, she refused to answer legitimate questions before Congress because the answers would be horrifying and politically inconvenient

And that's a profile in cowardice
