Aren’t you supposed to take a vow to defend the constitution when you join Congress?

ICE: "We must punish immigrants for NOT paying taxes!"

UPDATE: ICE has awarded a new contract worth up to $3.8 billion for the company to operate a migrant detention camp on Fort Bliss β€” its largest contract yet. It's the first time ICE is moving ahead with plans to detain thousands of people arrested on U.S. military bases in tents before deportation.

So MSNBC is now the network version of Trump: It will retaliate against anyone who dares to criticize them.

We've updated our tracker below with these 3 additions.

If you have information about any of the people on this list, or know of other Musk associates who have entered the federal government, reach out on Signal at 917-512-0201.

The Treasury Department right now. People are turning out against Musk and DOGE staging a takeover of the Treasury’s payment system. This crowd is big. The whole block is packed. β€œLock him up,” everyone yells.

Recipient of billions of dollars in federal funds, Elon Musk, will determine if he has any conflicts of interest in policing who gets federal funds.

And Mexican drug cartels will report to the police every time they break any laws. Honest!

The irony is that new IRS agents were hired specifically to audit high income earners - NOT like "YOU," but like ELON. He uses regular people as a shield to protect himself and his pals from clawing back what we lose to tax cheats. Elon's fans are useful idiots as he consolidates wealth for himself.

FYI: you can get your own printable red cards from the Immigrant Legal Resource Center.

They’re little cards that tell you what to do when ICE comes.

Ends of semesters are the saddest and funniest part of a term. "I know I didn't attend or turn things in, but what can I do for a passing grade?" Option 1: time travel to September and do the things. Option 2: pay me $20 million so I can retire early. Option 3: learn the lesson & retake the course.

He is always lurking around somewhere and "may" show up. She is part of the lore in my starting towns. For example, a bard in tavern might be heard singing "The Tragedy of Brave Aleena." It's a good way to build world lore, and this poems and songs are fun to write.

Officially at the age where the "I've fallen, and can't get up" tv commercial isn't funny. It comes to us all, I suppose.
