And that, folks, is all you need to know...

The Republicans in Congress are willing participants in it. At what point do Democrats in DC get that and start acting like it? Itโs not the price of eggs!

Hereโs a recap of whatโs happening:

I saw a post saying that ICE is pausing its tip line, so I decided to call myself to verify.
The recorded voicemail said they are not currently accepting immigration status tips.
Good job, friends.
