2.977 people died on 9/11.
The daily quote for ICE is 3000.
I think putting it in terms like that puts it into perspective.
They want one 9/11 every day.

The Trump admin in a nutshell; in order to justify their own mistake, theyโ€™re going to release a violent felon with five deportations so he can testify against the guy with no criminal record they mistakenly deported.

In other words, the story is always more important than the principle.

A Gavin Newsom post, RTing the WaPo article reporting, 

Trump officials reverse guidance exempting farms, hotels from immigration raids
ICE agents have been told to continue conducting enforcement operations at agricultural businesses despite concerns about negative effects on the food industry.

His tweet says, 

Looks like Stephen Miller is the boss, after all.

Trump got big footed by his own staff. Pathetic.

Once again, Gavin Newsom is stealing my trolling beat.

Curse you, Gavin!!!

Spanish-language journalist to be turned over to Ice after protest arrest El Salvador-born Mario Guevara, arrested by Georgia police on Saturday, transferred to Ice officers after bond release

This reporter was targeted.
He had a huge following, bigger than CNN.
They damn well knew it.

So, exactly who is running the show here? Trump made the important point over the weekend that we are losing essential employees, people who've been here 20 years & aren't criminals, & reined in immigration raids. But it sounds like someone countermanded him. Who's in charge? Trump or someone else?

A Subway offers free food to the homeless each & every single day between the hours of 3-5pm. It includes a 6" sub & small drink.

This should be a thing all across America โค๏ธ

I will be damned if I allow a bunch of Confederate-waving January 6th apologists give the American people a lecture on flag waving.

There is ZERO reason to enter an argument about patriotism with people who still worship traitors to America 150+ years later.

They. Are. Breaking. The. Law.

Shout out to Jimmy Kimmel for cutting through the noise. Trumpโ€™s propaganda machine is in overdrive and if youโ€™re relying on mainstream media, youโ€™re not getting the full picture.

When John McCain took the mic away from the woman lying about Obama, and came to Obamaโ€™s defense, that was the best of politics.  There is not a single Republican member of Congress who will โ€˜take the micโ€™ from Trump.  Thatโ€™s the worst of American politics.-Glenn Kirschner

Job growth held steady in May, but new signs of economic trouble emerge U.S. job growth over the first five months of 2025 is the worst since the Great Recession. When Donald Trump says the economy is โ€œbooming,โ€ heโ€™s wrong.

A statement from Kamala D. Harris:

Los Angeles is my home. And like so many Americans, I am appalled at what we are witnessing on the streets of our city. Deploying the National Guard is a dangerous escalation meant to provoke chaos. In addition to the recent ICE raids in Southern California and across our nation, it is part of the Trump Administrationโ€™s cruel, calculated agenda to spread panic and division.

This Administrationโ€™s actions are not about public safety โ€”theyโ€™re about stoking fear. Fear of a community demanding dignity and due process.

Protest is a powerful tool โ€” essential in the fight for justice. And as the LAPD, Mayor, and Governor have noted, demonstrations in defense of our immigrant neighbors have been overwhelmingly peaceful.

I continue to support the millions of Americans who are standing up to protect our most fundamental rights and freedoms.

This isnโ€™t just protest.
Itโ€™s defiance.
And itโ€™s only getting louder.

Healthcare for seniors is *not* waste, fraud, or abuse.

Food for hungry kids is *not* waste, fraud, or abuse.

A $45 military parade for a draft dodging felon *is* waste, fraud, and abuse.

Paying the National Guard to attack US citizens *is* waste, fraud, and abuse.

Stephen Miller is trying to get rid of Habeas Corpus which a power of Congress (constitution.congress.gov/browse/artic...).

The president can only suspend the writ after Congress has passed legislation allowing it.

The WH is making threats upon the courts if they don't fall in line.

Dan Quayle's political life ended when he misspelled "potato" in public.

But this dangerous moron can do career-ending things over and over and never pay the price.

That's the power of Citizen's United. The rich can simply buy public opinion.
