German mom of a wonderful daughter here to follow what’s going on in the land of the free since Trump entered office after 2016. Misspelling due to German autocorrection mess up.

Now that Dems refuse to vote for DHS funding until there are serious ICE reforms, Republicans are suddenly citing the importance of TSA.

‘Horsefeathers!’: Judge blasts Hegseth’s attempt to demote Sen. Kelly over video to U.S. troops The fiery decision against Hegseth included 15 exclamation points.

Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth violated Sen. Mark Kelly’s First Amendment rights by moving to strip him of his retired military rank for reminding troops in a video last year that they are obligated to refuse illegal orders, a federal judge ruled Thursday. www.democracydocket.com/news-alerts/...

🚨 BREAKING: Trump has repealed the EPA’s authority to regulate climate pollution, terminating the 2009 “endangerment finding,” which determined that greenhouse gases are dangerous to public health under the Clean Air Act and underpinned limits on emissions from power plants, oil & gas, and vehicles.

Now: US Customs and Border Protection Commissioner Rodney Scott tells congress the reason Border Patrol "surged a bunch of resources into Minneapolis" was because “ICE couldn’t go do arrests without being violently assaulted”.

I grew up in Detroit. Windsor was just another community in the area, one with the best Chinese food and the great indy movie theater I tried to impress artsy girls by going to. I didn't even need ID to cross the border. The lines on maps do not correspond with how life works in those areas.

Great to see the FP-5 Flamingo successfully striking deep into Russia.

This could become a game-changer if development continues smoothly and production scales up properly

I just got off the phone with another Epstein survivor.

I will continue covering the Epstein files through a survivor-centered lens, no matter how dark it gets.

Persistence is my lantern.

ELLISON: We're hoping we can gain cooperation perhaps in the Pretti matter, but we've been advised that the feds aren't investigating the Good matter and we haven't received any access to the evidence

PETERS: So in these two cases, you're being stonewalled?

ELLISON: That's a yes

Yesterday's House Dem res reversing tariffs on Canada was a 'privileged resolution'
So a Senate vote is mandatory
And .. despite Trump's outburst 👇
It is expected to pass

Maybe the AG is overwhelmed by the volume of perversion that are in those 3 million files that 1000 FBI agents redacted to protect Trump and his Epstein pals and she hasn’t enough staff she trusts to go through them fearing leaks so she waits to see what turns up and what she may un-redact🤷🏻‍♀️

Make no mistake:
This is exactly why ICE is leaving Minneapolis now

It's an attempt by the Trump admin to manipulate Congressional Dems into DHS funding concessions

The Trump agenda for ICE is far from done

In a normal government, this results in the resignation of multiple cabinet officials (Transportation, Defense, and Homeland Security), and the closure or (at least!) radical reorg of the cartoonishly incompetent agency at the center of it: CBP.
